Modifying the appearance of syntax items in the Source CodeEditor


    As you enter and edit code in the Source Code Editor, GoLive continuously monitors your code and compares it with the content and rules specified in Web Settings. When GoLive recognizes an element, it shows the start and end tags and attributes in color in the Source Code Editor to indicate that the syntax is complete.

    You can use the Source Code Editor toolbar to choose different themes that affect the appearance of your source code, and to choose whether you want GoLive to display line numbers or wrap your source code at the margins of the Source Code Editor. For information on changing the colors of items, see Setting Source preferences.

To modify the appearance of code in the Source Code Editor:

    Do one of the following:

    • Choose a theme for the current document from the Theme menu in the Source Code toolbar.
    • Click the Colorize Nothing button Colorize Nothing button in the Source Code toolbar to turn off the colors of all items.

To turn word wrapping on and off:
