rearranged dreamweaver code fix

[RichMcCrea]

There is an annoying problem where Visual Studio rearranges Dreamweaver
template markers (which are really just comments so VS should ignore them). I
have bashed my head against the wall in the following application forum in the
the article...

threadid=963294 Now, I want to write an extension which fixes the problem.
Can you extension writers tell me if this is possible. Randy from Macromedia
thought it might be difficult to impossible in the Dreamweaver environment
because DW doesn't allow you to rearrange template code (at least in the
editing window). Is this code locked if one tried to rearrange it in the
DW-DOM environment one uses to write extensions.? Anyone want to codevelop
this? I can think about how to do all the string math to fix what studio
rearranges, but will save my breath if DW prohibits this (in extension land).

It might be possbile to move the comment around, but not certain. There is a API call dreamweaver.editLockedRegions() that you pass in true that allows you to edit locked regions. Not certain if it'll allow you to move the comment code around though.

You could also, make sure the file is closed dreamweaver.closeDocument() , and then read it in use DWfile.read(fileURL) manipulate the code, maybe using RegExp, resave the file using DWfile.write(fileURL, newHTML) then maybe reopen the file dreamweaver.openDocument() .
