Re: Error Special characters must be escaped in Dreamweaver

Question

I am experiencing this issue with a simple <img> tag. The error has nothing to do with the php setting. I experienced the problem with a super simple <html> doc. I closed Dreamweaver, and the error is gone.

C'mon Adobe! You can do better!

I created a new topic for you. The one you posted to was about PHP code from 2018, which is unrelated to your issue.

Dreamweaver sends up warnings about unescaped characters when it detects invalid code in the document. As an example, improperly expressed  or unclosed tags.

For best results, use error-free code whenever possible.

1. Window ⇒ Results ⇒ Validation. Click the triangle to check document.

2. Fix all reported errors and save file (Ctrl/Cmd+S).

Hope that helps.
