   I keep finding the question, but have never found the answer. I use DW for the templates and management etc. I hand code in code view, but DW won’t leave certain attributes well enough alone.

   It keeps changing selected=“selected” back to selected

   How do I get it to stop that?

   I’ve just read that comment tags in XHTML have to be done differently using CDATA or something – it’s still a little fuzzy. Anyway, DMX uses comment tags for its templates with no CDATA thingummy so doesn’t that mean all pages produced by a DMX template are NOT valid XHTML? Anybody know what I’m talking about?

   Hello,

   I was just wondering if A list a part is going to publish a guide how to make these same tweaks in DW MX 2004. Atleast the doctype doesn’t change by editing the default.html anymore. I’m using a mac with DW MX 2004.
