Using Dreamweaver on a Mac. In the file browser panel, html files have an icon that looks like a page with the corner turned down. I have two files that show a </> instead. Why? What does the different icon mean? Thank you.

< / > = HTML or SVG files.

< ? > = PHP files.

{ } = CSS files.

/ = Cloaked fiiles

White page with turned down corner = PDF.

Scroll = JS Script.

Folder = Folder

Picture = image files.

Hope that helps.

The icons will vary by file extension, at least, on Windows we get...

</> is .html
<?> is .php

{} is .css
page icon is .txt
image icon for .jpg
pdf icon for .pdf
scroll icon for .js
