Dreamweaver MX alters my code view structure.

Posted 21 February 2009 - 02:15 AM

i have had this for ages and now i need to stop Dreamweaver MX from doing this.

DW changes this...

my original code
<body>
		  <div id="tag_1">
			  <div id="tag_2">
					<div id="tag_3">
						 <div id="tag_4">
							  <img src="images/intro01.jpg" alt="Olympus" />
							  <img src="images/intro02.jpg" alt="McKenzie" />
						 </div>
					</div>
			   </div>
		  </div>
</body>



to this.... when i open the file in design or code view.
<body>
		  <div id="tag_1">
			  <div id="tag_2">
					<div id="tag_3">
						 
		  <div id="tag_4">
							  <img src="images/intro01.jpg" alt="Olympus" />
							  <img src="images/intro02.jpg" alt="McKenzie" />
						 </div>
					</div>
			   </div>
		  </div>
</body>


is there an option to stop this happening?

If you copy the first code directly into DW MX then it should work perfectly.

If you want, you can turn off DW's code re-writing entirely in the preferences. (it's in the "Code Rewriting" section)

In the same section is lots of good settings to control what and when it'll re-write your code.

i have turned off all the options for rewriting the code but still on opening the file again the code is restructured!

i have Dream Weaver MX 6.0
