CFinput Properties

Hello~

I am using Dreamweaver 8, and have CFMX7 installed on my computer. When I open a .cfm document in Dreamweaver and click over any type of cfinput field, the only thing I see in the Properties bar is a cf icon, a button called "Attributes" and a dropdown menu for Class. I used to be able to set validation, the name of the field, etc., in the design view, and can no longer do that without clicking on the Attributes button, and even that isn't really the same. Has anyone else had this problem, or know how to get my old menu back? Thanks!

I've just tried in MX2004, 8 and CS3, and for <cfinput> I get the Attributes button in each. In what application (version?) were you getting something different than that? Did you recently update to DW8, or reinstall DW8, or something else occur recently?
