Weird syntax errors in dreamweaver

Question

Hello,I am receiving a strange syntax error writing JavaScript in Dreamweaver CS6 (version 12).for (let i of this.roomItems) {  }for some reason it is saying line 1 is a syntax error, but this doesn't seem right. I think perhaps the syntax definitions maybe out of date, but I can't figure out how to update it for the more modern JavaScript code.I really like Dreamweaver, but I'm about ready to switch to a different software if I can't resolve this, so please let me know how get Dreamweaver to understand things like "let" and "of". thanks!

If you are going to use ecma 6 to any degree, only programs produced within the last 12-18 months are likely to offer good support.

It may be worth looking at supplementing CS6, with an open source editor such as Brackets or Visual Studio code, (vs code includes a js debugger, and has an extension for the Chrome browsers dev. tools), before deciding to update to the new version of Dw, (which does not include a debugger and the dev tools).

DW CC2017 does not produce a syntax error for javascript let, so one solution would be to upgrade.Otherwise, knowing your code is correct you can simply ignore the syntax errors.
