Hey all, I could not find any help with searching, but recently when I open up a page in DW and edit text in design view, tons of white space (like 10's and hundreds of lines) are added wherever I am editing in the file (from design view).

Say I am typing a paragraph in design view. My computer has to work hard becuase it is then adding like 5 words I type then 100-1000 lines of nonsense white space. What gives?

Also, in code view, text I am editing from design view separates with one word on each line and doesnt stay together like a normal paragraph. DW never did this before. Anyone ever experience these "symptoms?" and what might the diagnosis be.

Thanks for any hints tips or ideas.

All the best,

peaffiliate

I also had this happpen to me when I swiched to Dreamweaver 8. I unchecked "automatic word wrap" (Edit/Preference/Code Format) and that seemed to fix it for me. The code still wraps, but it does it correctly. Not sure if this is a bug or due to my other settings. I've still got a lot to learn about Dreamweaver.
