How to view semantic css based layouts in design view in dreamweaver?

Hi all,
I havent had a lot to do with CSS based layouts (tables have alwasy just worked for me fine) but I am wondering how do I view the semantic/css based layout in design view in Dreamweaver?
As when I write the code, in design view its not showing me what the page will look like, I have to click on "Live View" to see what the page actually looks like.
I guess I am asking is there a way to using WYSIWYG on css layouts in design view??? Just like I do table layouts (In design view I can grab the edge of the table and resize etc)?
Any help would be great

Lou yeah I don't think the term WYSIWYG really applys to dreamweaver anymore when building CSS layouts.
The term "WYSIWYG" never applied to DW. It was never such a thing, nor was any other HTML authoring, no matter what the marketing hype said. It's not possible to deliver wysiwyg layouts when there are so many different browsers/platforms/versions to worry about. This is particularly true when you go back to the era when WYSIWYG was actively used (but not with DW, which was not advertised in such a way) - Netscape 4, and IE5/Mac would alone be enough to destroy any layout....
The view you are getting in Design view is happening because your CSS is misplaced BELOW the <body> tag - it should be in the head of the page (i.e., above </head>). Your CSS should never be placed within the body of the page.

Output shown in Design view of Dreamweaver CS6 is not same as shown by the browsers

I have made a yoga website http://ballychohan.co/ in Dreamweaver CS6. I faced this problem while designing the website.The results shown by Design view in Dreamweaver is not correct. It made me very confused at the starting. Please tell me how to overcome this problem of DreamWeaver. Should I install a lower version of Dreamweaver ?

Does the page show correctly in a browser?
Dreamweaver design view is not very reliable at renedering designs exactly the way you want them to look, especailly if you use more of the complex and up-to-date css, now available. Dreamweaver is always playing catch-up in that area.

How to hide content in design view within Dreamweaver?

How can I hide content in design view within Dreamweaver?
I have a tabbed content menu that uses some javascript. Everything looks great in Live view, but when I go to design view, all the content goes way beyond the div. How can I make it to where I can hide the content in that div in design view or wrap it completely inside of there? It's really hard to explain which is why I provided some pictures!
LIVE VIEW
DESIGN VIEW
Thank you in advance for all the help!
Dalton

Humm....... you want to hide it in Design View whilst working on the rest of the site?
If that is the case set the menu container <div> to display: none; -
<div id="menu" style="display: none;">This is the content menu</div>
Then either set it to display: block; when you're ready to view it live or remove the style completely.

Floated element breaks Design view in Dreamweaver CS3

I've tried searching for this issue but haven't found a fix yet and could use some help.
I am redesigning a site and am adding a fluid box to the page. This floated element breaks Design View in Dreamweaver CS3 but appears correctly in the Firefox, Chrome, and IE. I can get the element to appear correctly in Design View after I make minor changes to the page's HTML or CSS, however it always breaks when I save the file.
I've tried many work-arounds including adding an absoutely defined container div, altering the various div sizes, adding <div class="clear"> before and after the element, to no avail.
Ideally, I would like to have page appear correctly in Design View so that others in my lab can easily update the page (and not come to me with repeated questions!).
I've included screen prints of how it looks in Design View and how it look in Chrome.
THANKS! J
Design Time error:
Web Browser - correct view:

I'll try CS4; however my main reason for finding a fix is so that others updating the page (w/ CS3) will be able to do so w/ the WYSIWYG editor that we purchased. We will not be upgrading to CS4 anytime soon either.
Thanks

Design view in Dreamweaver CC (update Oct. 2014)

Design view in Dreamweaver CC (update Oct. 2014) shows renders fonts and elements as huge making it impossible to work in that view. In live view it goes down to normal. And is there a way to switch of the blue tag inspector wrapping around the elements in focus? It's driving me nuts!
What am I doing wrong, or is there a setting I'm unaware of?

Jon Fritz II wrote:
I have a sneaking suspicion that the "fix" is going to be the complete removal of Design View and a much more robust implementation of a Live View editor. I don't have anything to back that up, it's just the vibe I get from the direction DW seems to be taking.
If there is a single web design/editor/developer application that even comes close to the features and power of Dreamweaver, I have yet to find it. And I test everyone I come across. Dw truly is the last great web design powerhouse. One of the main features that makes it so powerful, is its rich WYSIWYG editor for producing and managing large sites with tons of content - otherwise known as the inappropriately named Design View.
As design surfaces go, apps like Macaw, Webflow, and Reflow nailed it. They're brilliant when it comes to prototyping designs and building & styling structures. Dreamweaver just can't compete with those types of visual workflows. Live View is barely a design surface at all, and its workflows are preposterous. That may change over time. Live View might be useful someday for prototyping designs and building & styling structures, but I would be very surprised if Live View's design surface ever... ever... ever becomes a useful content production and management surface.
If Adobe allows - or forces - the Dw team to remove Design View, leaving us without a decent WYSIWYG editor, then where does that leave web designers like myself who produce and manage corporate sites with lots of content? - It's a rhetorical question.

Corrupt design view in Dreamweaver 2014

Is there a solution for the corrupt design view in Dreamweaver 2014. Adobe continues to fix this and it has not changed. My pages are all distorted and the elements/divs are all over the place. It is perfect in live view.
PLEASE...does anyone have a solution,
Thanks,
Kathy

Kathy,
Design view in Dreamweaver has always been very problematic, it amazes me that it has been OK for you in the past.
With DWCC14, live view has greatly improved and it will not surprise me if Adobe decide to drop Design view in future releases.
To answer your question, in DWCC14, I would not use design view at all. You can now use Live view where you could not use it in previous versions of DW.

BLANK DESIGN VIEW!!!

Hi,
My project seems to work fine, but, now some of my pages have a blank design view.
My page1 is fine and I can view the JSP and java source for all the other pages but not
the design.
Whats goin on?

Hi Peter,
No TROUBLES :-)
Well, my problem is fixed.I think I had that blank design view bcos, I had components in my
project that were bound to my own databases which had become corrupt. Also, I learned that if you created some projects with the creator installation in directory 'X'. If you reinstall creator under something other than directory X, the projects will not compile.
Thanks,

Design View doesn't work on fresh cs5 install

I just bought CS5 web premium and installed all of the programs. For some reason design view in Dreamweaver doesn't work for any of my sites. It's just a grey background. I can work in code view, but I can't do anything with the design view, it's just a grey dead pannel. I had installed the trial version last month and it worked perfectly which is why I bought the full version. I uninstalled the trial version of Dreamweaver CS5 and installed the new CS5 and now the design view is dead. I tried reinstalling CS5 again but Design View is still dead. Any ideas?
Thanks,
DC

Hi DC,
I read you post, and now I wondering If you could help me with my problem.
I also recently purchased CS5 web premium and are having problems with the Preview option.
If you are using a local server for testing purposes, could you please read my posts on this forum:
Have a problem with preview CS5
(it's posted just above your own post)
Many thanks in advance,

Design View Issue Dreamweaver CS4 - Taking forever to load design view

I am having an issue where my site takes literally almost a full day to load in design view. Once it is loaded everything works seemlessly but once I close down Dreamweaver and reopen it, I have to wait another day to get to design view of my site. All files open just fine in code view.
I have deleted the Dreamweaver CS4 cache folder, completely formatted my drive and reinstalled creative suite. I have also validated my code on W3c and everything checks out fine.
The majority of my site is based off of a template, but even when I remove all the template references in the html files from Notepad I am still having the same issue. My site renders fine and quickly however on Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.
When loading any other site off the web into Dreamweaver I do not run into the problem so there must be something wrong with how my site is set up. Either the Template file is no good or somewhere else I am falling short. Can someone, please, please, please ( I am begging) help me figure out what is going on here.
My index file is located at - http://www.thebluedot.net/index.html and the template file is located at - http://www.thebluedot.net/Templates/index.dwt
I have searched high and low and even made a post on this same topic about a month ago but never came up with a resolution to my issue. I had given up on finding a solution to this problem for some time, but I really need to figure out where I am going wrong here!
Additional Details -
I am running - Windows Vista Ultimate on a Core 2 Processor with 12 GB of Ram & Solid State Hard Drive. Everything on my system runs super smoothly except loading my site in Dreamweaver CS4 design view.
I really appreciate any help you can provide.

I have used CS2 Adobe GoLive to create and manage a website (pro-prosperity.com). Now, I have CS4 Dreamweaver. I got a new site set up on Dreamweaver using the site management facility. I then have the contents of website available locally on Dreamweaver. I can edit files. But the main home page, index.html, is not displaying on design view mode for editing, although it displays everything on live view mode. I have struggled for days and am not getting any difference in attributes of index.html and another .html that is displaying fine on design view and is editable.
I am really lost and am begging for any help. Can you, for example, copy the home page from pro-prosperity.com and display on design view and edit it? Please tell me what is in this file that is troublesome. Thanks.
The first thing you should do is to make sure that this feature is turned on (it's off by default):
View > Code View Options > Highlight Invalid Html
It's not perfect, but it will notify you of some problems. In Code View, there are many problems highlighted. Some of them don't make sense, but are triggered because of a problem with a parent tag.
Be sure to make a backup copy of your file before doing the next step. Close your page. Go to Preferences > Code Rewriting, and turn on "Fix invalidly nested and unclosed tags", "Remove extra closing tags", and "Warn when fixing or removing tags". Click OK, then re-open your page. The messages in the dialog to tell you what was changed. This allowed me to see your page in Design View (I am using CS5).
Note: I suggested that you reset your preferences to turn off those 3 settings as they can cause problems with some markup.
In the long term, I suggest that you avoid nesting tables wherever possible.
Hope this helps,
Randy

Design view in Dreamweaver MX04 messed up

I am using Dreamweaver MX 2004. I have tried to download at
least 5 free CSS templates from various places. All of them have
correct CSS code and they preview correctly in Internet Explorer,
however my "Design View" is all messed up, nothing appears how it
should. The alignment is all off, pieces are all over the place,
nothing is as it should be. I have to modify a line or two, then
preview in IE, the do it again and again after ever little change
to make sure i am not screwing the whole page up. That kind of
illiminates the whole purpose of Design mode. I am a visual person
so staring at lines of code will not work for me, can anyone help.
Serious answers only please.
Please do not post "Learn the code" or any variation of that,
i am slowly learning more about the CSS code, but for now its hard
for me to see how it is applying to the design when the design mode
is messing up so bad.

I'm afraid you are just stuck. DMX2004 was a beginner at
rendering CSS
layouts. Without learning the code, you will be flying blind.

Design view in DreamWeaver CS3 disabled for CSS & Java

I currently use Adobe Dreamweaver CS3, and only some files have the option to view them in code AND in design view. This works for most files (HTML, PHP, etc). However, anytime I create a new CSS or Java file, the design view is disabled:
I have already tried the two other solutions I've found in this forum.
First I tried Preferences > File Types / Editors, and I deleted all of the file types in the "Open in Code View" menu (pictured below).
I restarted DW, and it didn't work.
Then I tried several steps to re-create the Configuration folder (which it did, but the problem remained) listed here: http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/401/kb401118.html.
Still nothing. HTML, PHP, ASP and all other files have the Design View and Split View available, but CSS and Java do not. I would really like to use DW to start editing CSS, but do not know it well enough to write in code and therefore could really use that handy Design View so I can learn as I tweak it.
Any help much appreciated - thanks!

HTML, PHP, ASP and all other files have the Design View and Split View available, but CSS and Java do not.
That's correct. That's as it should be.
A CSS file contains a bunch of text only CSS rules. Javascript is text-only script. There's no layout to see for CSS and JS files in Design and Split View so they're disabled.
Files with layout e.g. .htm, .php have Design View because they're web pages with a layout which can be viewed.
I would really like to use DW to start editing CSS, but do not know it well enough to write in code and therefore could really use that handy Design View so I can learn as I tweak it.
Open any .htm or .php (or other) web page and its associated CSS file.
Then tweak the CSS either via Code View in the CSS file, or using the DW CSS Editor when viewing the .htm/.php file, and see the formatting changes applied in Design View in the .htm (or .php) file.
Do not rely on DW's Design View as an absolute reference for pixel perfect accuracy. It will always be an approximation only to assist visually oriented web designers while editing.
Always test all CSS rules and edits in a range of browsers. Browser support for CSS rules and effects varies. Not all browsers support everything on offer in CSS1, CSS2 and CSS3.

Sometimes Cannot Select Elements in Design view of Dreamweaver

Hello,
From time to time, i have trouble selecting elements in the design view.
Sometimes it works right away. Sometimes I need to click 6-10 times, and sometimes it just doesn't work ( a larger all encompassing element stays selected and no matter how much i click, there is no change )
I originally thought it was a bug, but I expected it to be fixed by now.
This also seems arbitrary, perhaps someone here know why it's happening and how to avoid it.
Thanks
Peter

You probably have a CSS overflow:hidden property applied to one or more divisions for float containment. Switch to Split View. Or turn off CSS styles in Design View: View > Style Rendering > untick Display Styles.
Or you can comment out /**overflow:hidden **/ until you're ready to Preview.

Please put back Design view in Dreamweaver v2014.1!

I am always open for new features that said design view is a critical feature I use when I develop website.
The live view has delays and switching between code and live view is not smooth.
Adobe programmers please put back my design view because this is what separates DW from the rest of web developers tools out there!!!! Is ok to add new features but never remove the design view option ...
Sincerely,
Steven

Honestly, I doubt they'll "restore" it at all. It's more likely they'll hasten the release of a more functional Live View Editing feature set. But either way, the actual Adobe reps here (there aren't many) can't comment on expected release dates.
The writing's been on the wall for a while regarding Design View. It's eventually going the way of the APDiv, once Live View Editing is up to snuff.
