    Default Div Layer positioning and sizing

    Hi.
    I'm currently experiencing a rather weird behavior of Dreamweaver MX. When
    resizing or moving a DIV-Layer, the values will be set to something like
    width:125,000px; height:200,000px which Dreamweaver is not capable of
    displaying correctly. The DIV-Layer will either be positioned in the
    top-left corner (when top and left are set to something like xyz,000px) or
    will just not be visible at all when width or height are set by dragging the
    DIV.

    When entering the values manually, without the comma and the zeros,
    everything works just fine.

    Does anyone have an idea why Dreamweaver might want to try to be so
    super-accurate that even 1/1000 of a pixel is measured ? :)

    Thanx in advance.

    p.s. i'm using german environment settings, so the "," is not the
    thousand-separator but corresponds to "." in an english or american
    environment.

    Default Div Layer positioning and sizing

    Hi.
    I'm currently experiencing a rather weird behavior of Dreamweaver MX. When
    resizing or moving a DIV-Layer, the values will be set to something like
    width:125,000px; height:200,000px which Dreamweaver is not capable of

    will just not be visible at all when width or height are set by dragging
    the DIV.

    When entering the values manually, without the comma and the zeros,
    everything works just fine.

    This appears after having worked with Dreamweaver MX for about 3-5 Minutes.
    After closing and restarting DW, everything works fine again, till it comes
    up again.

    Does anyone have an idea why Dreamweaver might want to try to be so
    super-accurate that even 1/1000 of a pixel is measured ? :)



    Thanx in advance.

    p.s. i'm using german environment settings, so the "," is not the
