Using MX 04. Actually really want to tweak it the way it generates the html codes. Like if I am working with strict then I can tweak it to generate the html the way I want for xhtml strict.
Hmm maybe dreamweaver can't be customised that way. Sounds rather far-fetch.

Which version? I stopped using it at MX. You can tick 'Make all
document XHTML compliant' somewhere in preferences.

_javascript_ was the main option (didn't pay much attention though). Do a
search in the list for XHTML (OT??) on 7 Feb.
