Question

Dreamweaver issue with layer visibility.

Hey.. is anyone else running into this problem?

If i have a layer set with the following style:

<div id="errorWindow" style="display:none;">

It SHOULD show up in dreamweaver regardless of how it shows up in the browser/DOM

I am using it as an effect for controlling the layer but it seems dreamweaver is taking it literally. I am not using the Live View crap.. I am just using it in design mode. I want to see all my shit.

Is this a bug or am i doing something wrong? Any suggestions?

Cheers

Display:none is display:none.  There is no visibility in Design View or Live View as far as I am aware because it is showing you everything that you have set to show.  The display on your errorWindow div shouldn't actually change until a user triggers an error causing the display to change.  If you want to see it in Design View, best bet is to leave the css attribute to display the DIV and then when finished, update your CSS to set the display back to none.  And I can confirm up to CS5.5 has this same feature.
