.NET Forum / Visual Studio.NET / IDE / October 2008HTML Formatting VS2008 SP1
Since I installed SP1 on Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition on Vista Ultimate, my HTML source gets messed up by the IDE as soon as I hit save. Is there any option that got switched on during the install of SP1, I'm unable to find it. It's *very* annoying. Anyone else noticed this problem? Thanks in advance. Marcel Could you be more specific about what you mean when you say the HTML source gets messed up?

It does this after you hit save. Thus, all indentations are gone. > Could you be more specific about what you mean when you say the HTML source > gets messed up?

SignatureJohn Saunders | MVP - Connected System Developer John, The only option I found that got switched off (in my case) was Insert attribute value quotes when typing under Automatic formatting options, in Text Editor\HTML\Format options. I cannot find any other option, that why I posted the question. I have this on multiple machines in Visual Studio Prof 2008 SP1. But it happens not always, but intermittenly. Maybe I just put it in as a bug. Marcel > Check Tools->Options to see if you may have lost your formatting settings > when you installed the update. Long time (Visual Interdev product maybe) ago, the formatting would get messed up if there were overlapping or not closed form tags. > John, > [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >> Check Tools->Options to see if you may have lost your formatting settings >> when you installed the update. > Long time (Visual Interdev product maybe) ago, the formatting would get > messed up if there were overlapping or not closed form tags. That's at least two designers ago, John. Today's codebase is totally unrelated to what was used even in Visual Studio 2005, much less what was used in Visual Interdev. SignatureJohn Saunders | MVP - Connected System Developer That may be true John, but I am having EXACTLY the same problem. The only WORKAROUND I have found is to NOT HIT SAVE while I have that page active. I navigate away to another page, and then hit Save All, and when I come back the formatting is preserved. This has ONLY happened since Service Pack 1 was installed, and I am not able to descern settings to change, if any! Any help would be appreciated! > > Long time (Visual Interdev product maybe) ago, the formatting would get > > messed up if there were overlapping or not closed form tags. > > That's at least two designers ago, John.

I would otherwise have had no idea you were responding to me. Can you please narrow this problem down a little? I suspect that this is not a problem that every developer sees with the designer, and not on every page.
