Dreamweaver dev display

[jeffstl]

Odd question....but seemingly important to me anyway...

I have been using dreamweaver to develop asp.net pages for several weeks now, no problems.

Dreamweaver WAS displaying all my asp objects with thier actual names in brakets, like an asp label was shown in my design view as [ChName] ....

In other words, the ID was showing on design view.

Now, I dont know if I hit something, or what, but now every single page I open in dreamweaver is showing [asp:Label] in design view, instead of the actual ID name of the label......

Any ideas on how I can get this switched back? Ive tried almost every view option and preference option i can think of...no idea how this happen....grrrrrr

btw - I never design in design view, I use Dreamweaver occasionally. Setting yourself free from design views can be liberating :)

I know.

When I first started out I was making HTML docs in notepad.

However, when it comes to table layouts and graphical displays using design view can be helpful especially if you have label design templates, or any other .net control template you want to cut and paste into other places of the design.

Its not really a "show stopping" problem but irritating since I used to know the id's of all my labels in design view, now i dont....oh well :(

Credit to a fellow notepad developer. In my last company they only offered Frontpage, which I have never liked. Now I use VS which is good for asp.net and only use notepad for quick changes to config files :).
