Recordset binding wont drag from panel into code or live php page

Question

DW 21.2 / 15523 in Win 11

I like to work in code/live split view.

I have created a recordset (RS) in my php based on data in my locahost mysql database.

I want to insert a binding into my php page, however:

If i click into live view, the RS and binding grey out so i cant drag across.

If i click into code view the RS becomnes active (not grayed out) but if i try to drag into code view its nor permitted.

This is not expcted behaviour. It used to work fine in DW versions prior to 21, now I dont see how i can place my binding!

What do i need to do to fulfil this requirement please?

well, I didn't used SB since DW CS somtehing for a tutorial... but I'm not sure that Drag & Drop was working in CC Live View.. Did you try on Display view ?

just curious , when you say that it use to work, was it in CC Live View?

I hope you're NOT using the deprecated Server Behaviors Panels that Adobe removed from DW CC. The old Server Behavior scripts use outdated MySQL connections that are a) not secure and b) not supported by servers running PHP 7 or higher.

You should switch to a modern replacement.

WebAssist's MySQLi (improved) extension is the closest to old server behavior panels.

Another option is manual coding with current MySQLi (improved) or PDO::_construct both of which work on servers running PHP 7 or higher.
