Live view doesn't correctly pass URL parameters from HTML docs?

[antares5]

Running into something that I wonder if anyone else has seen.  I've created a site in DW CS5 with a local testing server (XAMPP on Win7), and if I use LiveView to view an HTML page that has a link to a PHP page that includes a URL parameter, the parameter shows up in the LiveView address bar, but the page doesn't seem to use it (trying to display an image where the file is built using $_GET to retrieve the parameter).  The same HTML page, displayed in a browser, works.  And if I then save the HTML page as a PHP page in DW, identical code, LiveView works.  Sure looks like LiveView will does not properly handle URL parameters from HTML documents...

I'm no expert, but it seems like there could be that you aren't holding ctrl while you click the link in live view. Links don't work unless you hold ctrl while clicking them.I have never had a similar problem in Dreamweaver CS5, and I use php as well as the $_GET functionality quite often. Maybe you could explain the problem in more detail, if it is a big deal.

Sorry if I wasn't clear... the navigation works correctly; I get to the page I'm tyring to get to.  One of the things that page should do is display an image, the I use a URL parameter to build the image file name to retrieve.  The link in the first page is something like <a href="gallery.php?pg=1">.  Works fine if the first page (the one I'm navigating from) is a PHP page, doesn't work (with the same code which is only HTML) if the page is an HTML page.

Sorry that I can't be of more help, but it seems that you could just make the page php and all of your problems would go away.
