Bugs
fixed in Dreamweaver MX 6.1
In addition to the specific bugs outlined below, several
stability issues in the shipping version of Dreamweaver
MX have been addressed in this release.
There are intermittent occurrences of files being
truncated or losing data when using Get/Put. (76640)
This occurs under certain circumstances if the "Refresh
local file list automatically" is unchecked and the
Site window has not been refreshed before putting a big
file.
Updating pages via a template wipes out the body's
onload event handler. (78200)
Relative-positioned Div/Span tags in a template
cause Dreamweaver to think a change has been made in locked
region when it hasn't. (77949)
Changes to a locked region are discarded.
(78297)
After making an edit in a locked region from code view,
saving the document brings up a dialog that allows the user
to save the document, but the changes are discarded.
Getting files from a WebDAV site that is configured
incorrectly deletes local files. (71441)
If the site configuration for a WebDAV server does not include
the ":81", doing a get from that site deletes
local files.
File is deleted when attempting to check it out
when it has already been checked out. (74371)
If a file is already checked out by another user in a site
that is using Visual SourceSafe, and you attempt to check
it out, the file is deleted from the local folder.

invoked. (72592)
Include directives with the word "Include" capitalized
are deleted when LiveData is invoked.
Under some circumstances when Dreamweaver crashes,
site definitions are lost. (76615)

performing the update.

are deleted if the Backspace key is used on a line of text
containing a form item. (72789)

swap image or nav bar behavior) removes the behavior.

attributes in code view. (79337)

of source text across a site with UTF-8 documents opened.
(72612)

tag name for some tag libraries. (78038)

other) tags between table cells when wrapping around the
selection in a table cell. (75994)

lists using the editor.

The tags or attribute names are rewritten as though they
were files.
Edit Tag incorrectly rewrites code in an XHTML
page. (77349)
When using edit tag on <input type=submit>, Dreamweaver
attempts to rewrite a tag for XHTML compliance, and incorrectly
writes it as:
<input name="" type="submit" />form>
Dreamweaver wipes out hand-coded white space when
adding an additional list item. (43061)
PHP script link is corrupted when changing the
name of the linked file. (78663)
The code editor cannot always distinguish between
"&" and "& amp". (77367)
Using an include (for example, cfinclude) inside
of <script> causes problems with MM:Lock.
(75469)
Dragging a file into design view in OSX results
in code reorganization. (66369)
The code from the file gets inserted into the open document
at the insertion point, but Dreamweaver also attempts to
merge the two documents together. So even though both documents
have their own html, body, and head tags, the combined document
has only one html, body, and head tag.
Dreamweaver creates corrupted code if pasted into
BBEdit and viewed with invisibles on. (78081)
UTF-8 XML contents get corrupted when using a double-byte
tag name. (77396)
