And you can tangle a consecutive subset of code blocks by narrowing your
org buffer to only those blocks before tangling.  It happens to me so
often I wrote a bit of code to avoid it.  From my emacs.org:

#+begin_src emacs-lisp :tangle yes
(defadvice org-babel-tangle (before widen-before-tangling)
  "Widen a buffer before calling org-babel-tangle."
  (widen))

(ad-activate 'org-babel-tangle)
#+end_src

Cheers -
