HTML Rewriting preferences

The following preferences affect imported HTML documents. They have no effect when you edit HTML in the HTML inspector. If you turn off these rewriting options, Dreamweaver displays invalid markup items in the Document window for HTML that it would have rewritten.

Fix Invalidly Nested and Unclosed Tags Rewrites invalidly nested, or overlapping, tags. For example, <B><I>text</B></I> is rewritten as <B><I>text</I></B>. This option also inserts closing quotation marks and closing brackets if they are missing.

Remove Extra Closing Tags Deletes closing tags that have no corresponding opening tag.

Warn when Fixing or Removing Tags Displays a summary of technically invalid HTML that Dreamweaver attempted to correct. The summary notes the location of the problem (using line and column numbers) so that you can find the correction and ensure it is rendering as intended.
