W3C validation defaulting to insanely wrong doctype in spite of declaration

I've been using Dreamweaver since it was a pup, but put off joining the cloud until recently.  I am a dinosaur. I generally use 4.0 transitional for the few static sites I'm still maintaining, and am primarily working with XHTML in ebook production.  I'm sure what I don't know would fill one of those books. I have googled my fingers off over this situation to no avail.My doctype declaration is a copy-paste right from W3C: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN""http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"><html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> My files validate when I use the W3C browser validation tool.  But when I use the Dreamweaver (v.20.1) W3C validation, I get this error message:Using the preset for XHTML + SVG 1.1 + MathML 3.0 + RDFa 1.1 based on the root namespace. [none]And it's all downhill from there.Obviously I can continue to validate through W3C, but it would be nice to sort this out so I can use program validation.&nbs

Are there any problems putting the Javascript includes before CSS includes in a PHP site?

I am finally redoing my business website. It is all PHP, database driven. Everything is working correctly but if I put the javascript Include after the CSS Include in the header Live View will not reflect any changes in the images in the style sheets if they are driven by Javascript.   Here's the example, not working in Live view is the first block of code: <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> <title>Home Page</title> <meta name="description" content=""> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">   <?php include('mstrIncludes/css.php') ?>  <?php include('mstrIncludes/js.php') ?> </head> If I reverse the order like this Live View works. <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> &lt

Convert tags to lowercase

In previous versions of DW, in code view, you could select all, right click, choose Selection/Convert tags to lowercase. That is not available in DW CC even though the manual gives that as the instruction on page 390. I've reported this to software engineers but does anyone know of a way to convert tags to lowercase besides individually in the tag library? Thanks.

DW Keeps Jumping Back to the Top After I Make Changes...

Every time I make a change on my CSS and save it, when I click back in the Live View window to view the changes, DW jumps to the top of the website.  It did this yesterday as well and when I closed it down and re-opened it, that seemed to solve the problem.  But now that is not working anymore.  I don't know if I clicked something by accident to make this happen but would appreciate help in getting this fixed.  Thank you!

BEWARE: Dreamweaver v21.3 is not working with sftp as it did in v21.2

Good morning everyone,I am writing to let you know that something major has changed with Dreamweaver V21.3 from V21.2 in regards to connectivity. Before the update I was able to connect to my webhost using Dreamweaver using SFTP but since the update I no longer can. Something has changed behind the scenes and it no longer will connect. I can use it on other sites but not with Pantheon.  I don't know if there is a workaround but I had to roll back to version 21.2 and all is now fine.  Please update this to work the same!

Website programming languages - PHP, Node and Bootstrap [from: including one html file in another?]

now a more traditional old fashion method, using PHP includes.... so for understanding the principle https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.include.php and adapting it to the content of the pages https://www.phptutorial.net/php-tutorial/php-include-file/ there too I hear the rumbling of the base... at least on the old fashion aspect </joke>   By @L e n a   No rumblings here. php is still the easiest/simplest and most popular of server languages and its easy to learn. In the majority of cases its all you are likely to need rather than bulging your website folder up with a lot of bloated node modules that you have zero idea what they do. Gotta luv the new breed, they have no idea what they are using or what it does so long as it does it, makes be want to cry or die laughing at the complex mess they create and get themselves into. I guess its all about trying to salvage some kind of reputation that web-development needs to be overly-complex to work!

Need to create custom keyboard shortcut for snippet

The previous versions of Dreamweaver allowed me to create a custom snippet, then assign a keyboard shortcut to it so I could insert it into my code on the fly. How can I do this in 2019?

Trying to understand the "dwsync.xml" files in the "_notes" folders – "Dst=1|2|-1" and the timestamp

I'm using Dreamweaver 21.2 (latest version) and I use the FTP sync feature (I activated the "keep sync information" setting in the site definition) and currently I'm trying to analyze a problem where DW want's to sync although there has nothing changed on both sides (remote and local), especially after the daylight saving time started or ended. In the "_notes" folders there are the "dwsync.xml" files with the sync information. There are lines like this in them:<file name="file.js" server="example.com" local="132883841423432900" remote="132883842000000000" Dst="1" /> Now I'm wondering what the "Dst=" means. Sometimes it's 1, sometimes 2 and sometimes -1. And how to read those timestamps? They are obviously no UNIX timestamps. I could not find anything on the web concerning this. Do you have an idea?

Dreamweaver 21.3 hangs on startup

Hello All,I finally replaced my Mac with a new one and updated to the latest version of Dreamweaver, which bounces in the dock for about a minute before stopping. All the while, the Force Quit pane says it's not responding. I deleted Dreamweaver and installed the latest from scratch as well as version 21.2, but same results. Any suggestions? Thanks.

text alignment in UL list

Is there a way to align the text with the first line of the <li>? Here is my class:/*Mobile*/@media (max-width: 380px){ul.specifications-info {    list-style-type: none;    padding-top: 10px;    font-size: 1.5em;    padding-left: 10px;    margin-right: 10px;    font-family: Baskerville, "Palatino Linotype", Palatino, "Century Schoolbook L", "Times New Roman", serif;    margin-left: 10px;    text-align: left;}}/*Tablet*/@media (min-width:381px) and (max-width:949px){ul.specifications-info {    list-style-type: none;    padding-top: 10px;    font-size: 1.4em;    padding-left: 10px;    margin-left: 10px;    margin-right: 10px;    font-family: Baskerville, "

FTP uploads no longer work on changed/updated files

[Running DW v. 21.3 on Mac OS 12.4] Hello. For three days, I've experienced unreliable FTP uploading. For no apparent reason, when I attempt to put [all small] files that haven't been changed or updated in the last three days, the uploads complete successfully. But the uploading fails when I try to put files that I've changed or updated over the past three days. I continually receive the same error message: “Error occurred — An FTP error occurred — cannot put “currentMessageTheme-Romans.html.” Internal data error: Transferred file size does not match the expected file size.” I've done numerous things to resolve the issue:1.  I asked my host/server to inspect my cPanel settings and advise of problems or needed changes. The host/server found nothing on its ends but suggested that I try using Cyberduck or another free FTP client to see if the changed/updated files could upload on it. Cyberduck was able to upload the changed/updated files.2.  I verified with m

Web site page disappeared from Dreamweaver

I have been working on a private  project developing a photography website. I started working on this website ten years ago and before i could put the final touches on it was stolen directly from godaddy.com's web servers. I was going through hard times when the website was stolen from me and i had invested thousands of dollars teaming up with a programmer. After several years of learning adobe suite i decided to re-develop my website with the knowledge that i've learned. I started re-building my site a couple months ago and today one of my pages went missing. Like it never existed inside of Dreamweaver, the page files are not in my folders and i was just working on my services page last night. To say that i am angry is an understatement, i've been reporting to law enforcment for years and they are not supporting me well enough to retreive nothing. I had collected a fair amount of video photoage over the course of this winter that i was going to use in my new website and all of th
