Yahoo Merchant Solution Extension

When using Store Tags in Yahoo Merchant Solution Extension Yahoo says their extension is writing the code correctly but dreamweaver changes the code. Yahoo showed my how to manually make corrections to the code but this is not a satisfactory solution on a site with many store tags. The incorrect code causes an error message in the Yahoo shopping cart saying the item cannot be placed in the cart. Does anyone know of an easier workaround? Does anyone know how to convince Dreamweaver that they are in error here?

Here is the code generated by the extension:
<form method="post" action="<!--#ystore_order id=vwar6 -->">
<input type="submit" value="Order" />

Here is the code as it appears after cut and pasting into site page:
<form method="post" action="<!--#ystore_order id=vwar6 -->">
<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Order" />

Here is the code that actually works:
<form method="post" action="<!--#ystore_order id="vwar6" -->">
<input type="submit" value="Order" />

Try this:

1. Edit > Preferences > Code Rewriting
2. Turn OFF "Rename form items when pasting"

Does that fix it?

HTH,
