    Design view may not render components that are dynamic or generated from scripts. For that you should be using Live View.

    You're better off using an actual browser for testing.  Design View, Live View, etc., aren't actual browsers, and cannot accurately provide what will happen in an actual browser.  I always code for FireFox, then when I'm done I'll use IE and Chrome to see if anything isn't spot on and change from there.

    V/r,

    Hey thanks a lot for the quick reply !

    I have the same issue with live view unfortunately . Maybe it 's because I did not specify a live server ? thought I could work locally with both

    Thanks again for your help

    Even with Live View you will need at least a testing server defined in your DW site. DW is not itself a server that can process that data so all it can do without the server is render as text.
