    Default includes mess up table formatting

    Not sure if this is OT - if so xcuse me
    I have a table with 3 pull down menus next to each other in a cells. I make
    the 3 pull down menus (<select...>) each an include, and include them using 3
    <cfinclude template="...> that each point to the approprioate file. This is In
    DreamWeaver- Code view. When I switch to Design view the pull doen menus still
    show up but below each other and shifted to the right in an extra cell added to
    the table...
    So all I change is
    take the code for the pull down menu
    save it in an include
    delete the pull down menu code
    put an <cfinclude ...> tag that points to the newly created include instead.
    This I do for 3 pull downs that are in 1 cell, also for 3 other pd's in
    another cell (this is why I make it an include)
    The pd's still show but ni another cell...

    When I upload the file to the server and view it in the browser the same is
    happening...
    Is it not possible to use includes this way?

    Default Re: includes mess up table formatting

    Yes, it's possible. I've done it. It sounds like your <td> tags aren't right.

    Post the following code sections from the first version that you want to work:
    1. the main page where you do the 3 <cfinclude>'s, including the entire <tr>
    for that row.
    2. all relevant HTML output in the <cfinclude>d pages.
