Errors with template using nodes

In line 41 I am getting the error "a template declaration cannon appear at block scope" and at line 50 I am getting the error "expected ';' before 'template'". I am not exactly sure what I am doing wrong, any help would be appreciated. There are a couple more functions that I did not include cause I did not receive errors in them, as well I have a main that I did not include. Thanks.

	Node<T> *p = head;
	while (p) {
		os << *p;
		p = p->next;
    }
}

template <typename T>
int length(Node<T> *head) {
	int count = 0;
	Node<T> *p = head;
	while (p) {
		count++;
		p = p->next;
	}
	return count;
}
anyone have an idea what I'm doing wrong?
Here's your remove function, reindented:

template <typename T>

thanks... however I think that was just a copy and paste issue.
A copy and paste issue that you're missing a closing curly brace for your remove function?
As it is right now in the code you posted, your print function is inside your remove function.

haha, thanks I looked through my code to check it but didn't realize I missed that.
