Default Can't "Insert" HTML tags into .INC files - 07-09-2004 , 09:06 AM






I'm trying to figure out why Dreamweaver's "Insert" menu shows all of its
functions greyed out when I load an include file (with a .inc extension) for
editting in Code view.

It's pretty standard practice for Web developers to use include files to copy
in common code into Web pages using the #include directive. Why doesn't
Dreamweaver recognize these files as HTML files and allow me to drop in HTML
tags using the Insert menu? Can I fix this?

Regards,

Chris

Because "inc" says nothing about the contents of the file. An include could
be almost anything...asp code, java, javascript, css, etc...
