Custom Color Coding

[gvbrown49686]

Hi,
I'd like to alter the color coding in dreamweaver, so that comments and inline
comments are handled different... it would make my life just a bit easier.
This would be for an actionscript document. I've made the following changes:

in codecoloring.xml, I altered this line:
<endOfLineComment name="InlineComment"
id="CodeColor_ActionscriptInlineComment">//</endOfLineComment>

in codecolors.xml, I added this line:
<syntaxColor id="CodeColor_ActionscriptInlineComment" text="#DEDEDE" />

This does nothing though. I haven't found any documentation on editing these
files... anyone know?

Thanks,
Geoff B

Geoff,

That looks about right. Make sure that you are editing the xml in the
User Configuraiton folder and not the Application Configuration folder.
This TechNote explains the difference:

Hope this helps,
