Hi,

I'm trying to figure out how to get FrontPage 2003 to leave my code alone!
Every time I save a file, it keeps moving things around.

FP 2002 did this, too, so I looked it up on the web and learned that there's
a bug in 2002. Apparently, once you select the option to "reformat html",
FP2002 will continue to reformat your code, even if you've un-checked the
option. I purchased the 2003 upgrade for the *sole purpose* of getting past
this bug. But so far, I can't find any options in any menu or dialog box in
2003 that tells it to stop touching my html/asp code.

Anybody know how to turn off ALL reformatting in FP2003, or if they even
bothered to fix the bug?

Thanks in advance for your help.

Regards,
Jonathan Atkinson
 
What type of code is FP reformatting?

If it is code that FP generates, then you can not stop FP from
changing/resetting it code.

Tools Page Options Code formatting - select Reset
(FP2003 will leave your Valid html code alone - it will fix invalid code)
- the right click Reformat Html option is per use event, not self repeating

Post a snippet of the code it is "changing"
