Help pls - PHP pages completely borked in DWMX Design View

[Faken]

Hi all,

I had some html pages that looked fine in design mode in dreamweaver mx, but since the addition of PHP elements, the page is completely messed up. The tables are just everywhere and I'm just wondering if there is a wysiwyg program I can use that doesn't have this issue, or if there's a way to fix design mode in DW that corrects this issue.

Thnaks,
Faken

Check the Site Definition - Application Server - Server Model needs to be PHP in order for PHP translators to appear in Design View.

Thanks for responding :) I've setup the site using server technology: PHP & MySQL. When I open up my php pages to edit, the tables and formatting of the pages are totally wrong. The code view looks fine, but the design view is pretty much upsdide down.

The site itself is <Sorry, no URLs. See TOS [webmasterworld.com]>

If I try to edit any of the text in DW, the cursor just suddenly lines up against a table. Very weird. Any idea what it could be at this point? Maybe I didn't setup my site parameters correctly? I verified the settings you gave me to check and everything seems ok.

Thanks again,
Faken

You need to spend some time here:

Thank you very much... I was able to fix the problem with that link :) This is what happens when you have a few ppl working on the same page and someone forgets something ;)
