Just adding here so that others can find the information later....

If you use Dreamweaver, by default, you'll find that you can't fire up
your views in the code or design views. Using Dreamweaver preferences,
you can set it up so that Dreamweaver will load the file but you will
not get code coloring, and you will not be able to preview it in
design view.

This tip will give you the best of both:
- View CTP and THTML files in code view with PHP syntax coloring
- View CTP and THTML files in Design view

You edit two files:
1. Extensions.txt - On Vista, this is in your USER directory, NOT the
one in the main Dreamweaver directory.

E.g.:
C:\Users\[Your Username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\en_US
\Configuration

Edit the first line that defines all the documents.
Add, ",CTP,THTML" before  ":All Documents"  (note the capital letters)

Find the PHP line and add ",CTP,THTML" before ":PHP Files"

Save

2. MMDocumentTypes.xml
is here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS4\configuration
\DocumentTypes

If you try to edit this on Vista, it will say that you don't have
permission - right click on the file, set the security permissions to
allow you to edit it.

Search for "<documenttype id="PHP_MySQL" "

On this line, there are two parameters:
winfileextension="php,php3,php4,php5"
- Add ",ctp,thtml" to this parameter

macfileextension="php,php3,php4,php5"
- Add ",ctp,thtml" to this parameter

Save

Restart Dreamweaver

You'll now notice that your *.ctp files have an icon and isn't a blank
white file. You can double click on them and they will open up, and
you can view it in Design view.



Enjoy,

Leo
