Question

All of the sudden in Dreamweaver 8 I cannot paste text.

In Design view when I use the paste command, a file copy is created in the folder for the page i am working on and no text is pasted.  .  I need to somehow change the select setting because it is selecting the entire page file for copy and pasting.   Any Ideas would be a big help.  Thanks

    Anyway, it was long pointed out that the 'Answered' feature can in many cases be misleading. Apart from the fact that the OP, who nine times out of ten is a newbie or near newbie and in no way fit to really judge the effectiveness/accuracy of the answer, it often precludes other solutions or workarounds that may be as effective or even more effective.

    I've also seen people being rebuked for posting in a thread that is 'answered' and told to start a new one, when their post is still on topic.
