Question

Editing bug?

Using Dreamwever 21.2 and I'm getting a bug where I'm editing text in Design mode. I'm editing text in a table that uses CSS for the font size. If I type, everything works fine but if I push the delete (backspace) button and start typing again Dreamweaver will automatically insert a 

<font size="3">

tag for whatever I'm typing. This is extremely annoying as I have to remove the tag everytime to maintain what I've defined in CSS. This just started happeneing recently. Is this a bug in the new version or is there some preferences that got switched? I've reset my preferences.

    I'm guessing your code contains errors that DW is attempting to reconcile.  Errors are denoted by a red X in a circle.  Valid code has a green checkmark in a circle.  Validate code and fix reported errors.

    Search your code for <font> tags.
