ups ... that exactly was the problem. I edited the files with NVU. Then I used TextEdit which comes with OS X and also adds stuff to the files that you do not see directly (at least the way I saved them)..... at the end I used Taco HTML Edit, an OS X HTML editor which is also able to save files as plain-text.... and Hooray: it works!!
