When the selection is not enclosed by parentheses,
brackets, or curly braces, Dreamweaver sounds an alert.
Although most Web designers who use the code editor in Dreamweaver prefer to manually enter their code,
the power of the Insert bar is still at your disposal for rapid code development. Any element available from
the Insert bar can be inserted directly into Code view or the inspector. To use the Insert bar, you must first
position your cursor where you would like the code for the object to appear. Then select the element or
drag and drop the element from the Insert bar to Code view or the inspector.
Keep in mind that Dreamweaver??™s code editor is highly customizable. You can change the way
the lines wrap by using indents for certain tag pairs; you can even control the amount of
indentation. All the options are outlined for you in Chapter 4.
Printing code
Although you may spend the vast majority of your time writing, modifying, and debugging your code
onscreen, there are times when you need to see it in hard copy.
