Open files in Code view by default

When you open a file type that normally doesn’t contain any HTML (for example, a JavaScript file), the file opens in Code view (or Code inspector) instead of Design view. You can specify which file types open in Code view.

  1. Select Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Dreamweaver > Preferences (Macintosh).
  2. Select File Types/Editors from the Category list on the left.
  3. In the Open In Code View box, add the filename extension of the file type you want to open automatically in Code view.

    Type a space between filename extensions. You can add as many extensions as you like.
