Exceptions to white space preservation in HTML editor

When you load a document into the HTML editor or switch between Design view and Source view, the editor attempts to preserve the format of the document as closely as possible. However, this is not always possible. Individual themes deleted during recalculation

When using source control to obtain files that belong to a theme, always perform a Check Out or Get Local on all files in the theme. You can do this by selecting a theme folder before getting the files. Otherwise, if part of a theme is local and the remainder is on the server, you might encounter problems. Recalculating links or switching from local to master mode might cause the theme to be deleted from your project. Likewise, check all files back in at the same time.

RDS objects on page cause "failed to load" message

If a page contains an OBJECT tag that references an RDS component, when you switch to Source view in the HTML editor, you will see the message:

Some objects have failed to load. The objects will be displayed as text.

This occurs because the RDS objects do not have a visual representation, so Source view cannot render them. However, the objects will function correctly.

Installing VBScript or JScript version 5.1.x disables Intellisense

After upgrading to version 5.1.x of VBScript or JScript, the Intellisense feature of the code editor may fail to display the members of an object. On NT4 you may experience a long delay before the member list appears; on Windows 2000 the list may not appear at all.

This only occurs when you use a fully qualified object (i.e. document.Form1.Select1). If you remove the document portion of the reference (i.e. Form1.Select1), Intellisense will display the member list properly.
