Cool - but it does have a nasty habit of not retaining your position within the code inspector window when you switch between templates - which I do all the time :(

Example: So you can look at a query at the top of the Doc and a CFOUTPUT at the bottom at the same time. Collapsible code is nice also.

When you open a document you will see on the top tab three buttons, "Code", "Split" and "Design". Click on "Split" to switch to split screen mode. This is defiantly one the most useful features of Dreamweaver. - Neal -----Original Message----- From: cfhelp [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 22, 2003 7:20 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: dreamweaver stuff While we are on DW subject... I just started using it last week now that I have multiple sites and different developers working on them Studio just didn't seem like the way to go. One thing I miss or can't seem to find is the Split View. Is this gone? It was really helpful to look at 2 areas of code on a page at once.

Part of the problem with the title bar is that it is not a relative path based on the Site, it's relative to the document and only goes one directory, so a file that looks like this: C:\MySites\myCoolSite\mySubDir\myOtherDir\myChildDir\myfile.cfm where myCoolSite is the DW site root, will display like this in both DWMX and 2004: myCoolSite (myChildDir/myfile.cfm) If indeed DWMX DID show the entire path relative to the site, then it would be reasonable :) I have partially written an extension to show the full file path (Windows only) in a toolbar...
