Dreamweaver 8 display of CF code issue

Ken: Thanks for responding. Having files opening in code view was not the problem, but it was good to review that area of Preferences.

I do believe I am in the twilight zone, though. This morning, I opened Dreamweaver, and code is displaying in Design view as it is designed to do. Curly brackets are showing up just fine. I have no idea what caused the problem, but it is obviously intermittent.

Very odd, but it seems to have resolved itself, with no changes on my part. It's the first time I've seen anything like that happen, as well. \

Thanks again for answering me. WCW

Never happened to me - sorry.

One thing to check is Edit > Preferences > File Types / Editors and make sure .cfm is not in the Open in code view box
