SYMPTOMS
When a file is opened to be edited with Visual InterDev 6.0, source code characters are encoded with their HTML variable equivalents.

For example, the following code:

<%@ Language=VBScript %>

 4) {return false}">

 >Default 

 

<%@ Language=VBScript %>

 4) {return false}">

 >Default 

 is replaced with this code:

<%@ Language=VBScript %>



<SELECT name="tmpSelect"> &gt;Default</OPTION> </SELECT>

<IMG src="myImg.gif">

<%@ Language=VBScript %>

<INPUT type="button" value=" Sample " onclick="if (intTemp &gt; 4) {return false}">

<SELECT name="tmpSelect"> &gt;Default</OPTION> </SELECT>

<IMG src="myImg.gif"> NOTE: Some of the ">" characters within the lines of code are replaced with ">".
