View Full Version : Editing pages using Dreamweaver

I have recently been making some changes to the brief and detailed product pages templates.
Changing them from .tbl to .htm allows me to edit them and make the very minor change that I want. But for some reason, after saving them as .tbl again the 'more info' and 'buy' buttons won't work.
I have been using Dreamweaver to make the changes, but have discovered that if I make changes using a basic text editor - such as Windows Notepad - the changes are okay, and the file (and 'more info' and 'buy' buttons) work fine.
Any ideas what Dreamweaver changes to prevent the buttons working? Or if there is something I can change in Dreamweaver to make it work?

I cannot check as I dont have DreamWeaver, but im sure if you compared the code around where the buy button sits in the code you will spot differences.

[Update: Some HTML editors replace < and > (less than and greater than characters) with &lt; and &gt;. If dreamweaver is doing this it will effect all the ezimerchant tags. You should do a find/replace in Notepad after using dreamweaver and replace all the instances of &lt; with < and all instances of &gt; with > symbols.]
