You have to save the HTML file to see the changes with a browser refresh. You can use the design view to make sure you are atleast in the ballpark before saving and using the IE/Firefox preview. I know most people go with CSS layout now a days, but this was insanely useful for complicated table layouts involving many nested tables/col and row spans, etc. Also good for detailing sliced photoshop templates...again not so useful for "good" design but nice for a quick and dirty fix. There are some rendering bugs in the design view but it does get you in the ballpark atleast. On 4/11/07, Robert Cummings <robert@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

I see changes by hitting CTRL+R on any given browser for which I'm debugging... at least when those browsers show rendering bugs I know I'm fixing bugs for those browsers and not Dreamweaver bugs.
