How to edit publishing portal pages?

I was trying to edit the portal web part pages using the sharepoint designer, but every time I select Edit with Microsoft Office Sharepoint Designer, I got following message:

This page can not be edited in sharepoint designer. You can edit the content in the browser, or edit he corresponding page layout in Sharepoint Designer.

Solution: Explore the site in Sharepoint Designer and navigate to Page library(Pages) & locate the page you want to edit. Right click on the desired page and Select Detach from Page Layout. Now you have page ready to be edited. Once, you finish the page editing then do the reverse operation i.e. Reattach to Page Layout.

Caution: Edit page layout will lead to change the Layout of every page using same layout.
