    Default Code view & Layout view

    Hello all,

    I have a problem! I have a .htm document where I can see the code view, but I can't see anything in the Layout view. Only the tables. The page has a combo of text, flash, and graphics.

    When I edit the text in code view I can F12 and see everything in the browser, but I still can't see the changes in Layout or design view.

    I have tried to change the workspace, but still doesn't work. I tried to copy/paste code into new document and I still can't see the page in layout view. I think I have pretty much exhuasted the possibilites, but to no avail. Please Help! This is driving me nuts.

    Thanks,

    Sam

    Sam:

    Change from Layout View to Design View - VIEW | Table View > Standard Mode,
    and see if that helps.

    Murray,

    That doesn't help. The funny thing is I can see the changes I make in code view in the browser! Huh! Any more suggestions?

    I'm having this same problem and it's driving me crazy!!! The only way
    around it seems to be going into Code View making a small change (or simply
    retyping a word) and then going back to Design View -- but! -- this doesn't
    work on pages based on my templates, cuz the changes don't stick - even in
    the editable areas!

    What's going on? And why can't I find anything on this on Macromedia's
    site?????

    Is the
    [url]http://members.cox.net/helmanan/collocation.htm[/url]
    one of the pages you have trouble showing in design view?

    there's an unclosed html comment- it makes the entire page blank in
    mac/ie5.

    <STYLE TYPE="text/css">
    <!--
    A:link { text-decoration: none }
    A:active { text-decoration: none }
    A:visited { text-decoration: none }
    margin:0;padding:0{ }
    </STYLE>
    </HEAD>

    that may also be the reason you can't create an imagemap or link properly
    inside it maybe??

    Alan,


    Replying to your first question. No, the collocation page is not one of the pages that I can't see in Design view. I can see it fine. The aboutus.htm page is the one I can't see.
