Hi Balinor

i did notice the thread was old, but when I read that you can preview the tpl files in dreamweaver, I thought I had found the holy grail!

I have installed the Smarty plugin and can open the tpl files no problem - however I can only get the code side. Normally when I edit html files I can switch between code & design view, however when I have a tpl file open this option is ghosted out. Am I missing something or trying to do something that can't be done?

As I think I mentioned before, I am new to Smarty but been using Dreamweaver for a long time (MX version by the way) - just that I know if I could see both the code & a visual layout of the tpl files I know I can get better more easily.

Any advice greatly appreciated.
Many thanks
Kev
