You can shut this off, and in fact by default it asks you each time if you do or don't want it to suck down the related files. If it didn't prompt you that feature got turned off somehow. > I would prefer one of two things: 1) It doesn't try to read the includes > unless it can interpret them, 2) It just renders the part is understands an > ignores the coldFusion, so a lamon can change the text without having to > know HTML. > Instead, it does a blend of the two and outputs garbage to the design view > and messes up the code because it thinks it is cleaning it up but it cannot > interpret CF. If DW actually changed any of your code, then there's a setting in there you should check as well. You can tell DW to not touch any code ever--I don't ever use the design view but I work with a designer who frequently opens my CF files in design view and I've never seen it touch a line of my code. > If anyone knows a tool that has tooltips and such for all three languages > like dreamweaver does and has a back button please let me know. I'd definitely request the find feature as an enhancement if it's that important to you--it might be something they could add quite easily but just haven't had a request for it. Personally I use DW for both CF and PHP with very few complaints, but everyone has different pain points so it's good there are so many IDEs out there. None are perfect but for my style of doing things (and because I'm on the Mac most of the time ...), I think DW comes darn close. I'm using CFEclipse more and more, and once they have the file browser/FTP stuff 100% done I will likely switch. It's a Java program so it'll run anywhere and has excellent support for both CF and Java. DW really, really sucks for Java.
