I have something weird going on. I have a site created with dreamweaver 8, php, and mysql. I've been tweaking it for the last couple days. Today when I tried to make a change to a page dreamweaver locks up. I have over 30 pages on the site and on all but three of the pages I can make changes without any problems. The other three lock up. I was able to make changes to these pages before with no problems. The pages are simular in design, but there are two other pages that are the same design and I can change them. Anyone ever run across this before?

I had a similar problem with Dreamweaver when I made a mistake on a page with Spry components. Each time I opened Dreamweaver, it opened the page and locked up. Solution was to use windows explorer to remove the page from the site. Then Dreamweaver did not find it on startup. I then reconstructed the page without errors by copying it over from notepad bit by bit, until it failed again. Then I found where the error was, and everything worked OK.

Well the differece between the different pages is that the recordset is different for each page. Other than that they are almost identical. I've made no changes to the tables involved.

Something similar happened to me and it was because the structure of a table in my database changed and my page's recordset referred to a column that no longer existed. I discovered this by editing the page using Notepad and corrected the error.
