Question

dreamweaver mx to 8 extension help needed

I recently went from dreamweaver mx to dreamweaver 8 and I'm having some trouble with an extension I use to use. The extension I'm talking about is openPictureWindow in mx, I could click on it in the behaviors tab and it would open it up with a dialog box showing size and other options, now in dreamweaver 8 under the behaviors tab, it just shows the code used for it:

sample:

openPictureWindow_Fever('jpg','web images/action/222B/222b_5/Xander Jumping .jpg','600','450','Weekend Warriors MX','','')

how do I in dreamweaver 8 get the dialog box to open so I can make changes to it if needed?

I'm a rookie in this so go easy on me 🙂 but I would like this version to work similar to my old mx if possible, or does 8 not work like the old mx?

Thanks,
Glen

I don't think Drew has updated his extensions for 2 or 3 versions now. That
is probably the problem.
A good alternative might be Just So Picture Window .. you can find out about
that here:
