We experience problems with Dreamweaver2 on PC and Mac when updating ordered and
unordered lists in an editable cell in a page attached to a template. 1. When
already in a list item: 1.1. clicking on a "list" button (both unordered and ordered),
which normally just put out the current line from the list, we suddenly have a
new sub-list created at the cursor position. 1.2. using the "indent" buttons (which
normally would just move from one list level to another - high or below), creates
a sub-list as well. 2. When out of any list item (normal line): 2.1. clicking
on a "list" button (both unordered and ordered), which normally just creates a
list item from the current line, creates a new sub-list at the cursor position.
Note that cursor position in the current line is where Dreamweaver creates the
empty lists i.e. if the cursor is at the begining of the line, then the empty
list will be created BEFORE the current line, if the cursor is at the end, the
empty list will be created AFTER the current line. The problem occurs only on
an editable region which is in a cell on a page attached to a template. Note that
if, within the editable cell, we create an "inner" table, the problems doesn't
occur in the "inner" table cells!?! Example: ======== Here is an example of a
simple test template containing a table made of 2 columns and 2 rows. The 4th
cell is an editable region called "cell4": ----------
Test template
----------
When we create a page from this template and try to update lists in the
editable
cell, the problem occurs.
For example we create 4 paragraphs (the problem occurs even in simple
line out
of any paragraph) in the editable cell, the editable region HTML code
becomes:
line1
line2
line3
line4
When we place the cursor at the beginning of the 3rd line and click on
the
"Ordered list" button, we have the following result:
line1
line2
line3
line4
As seen in the code, the 3rd line content is "out" of the list and there
is an
empty list with 1 item just before it...
If we manage to create a list item with the 3rd item (by changing the
HTML code
by hand...)
line1
line2
- line3
line4
We then click on the list button to make the line become a normal one
and get
this result:
line1
line2
-
line3
line4
If we clicked on the "Indent right" button, we get this result:
line1
line2
-
line3
line4
This problem happens on BOTH PC and MAC versions of Dreamweaver 2.
This is a very annoying problem as ALL our pages are made from templates
containing editable regions in table cells...
