i’m just starting to add php to my website, and added a simple “include” code to some pages.

i’m used to hitting F12 to preview changes in the browser.

when i open the php the files from the brower iteslf, the code works fine.

but now in that i’ve added the php, in DW when i try to “preview in browser” (F12) i get errors casue the path is wrong… it starts pointing to a “temp” dreamweaver version of the file.

sure, i can always just switch over and view my files directly from the browser… but it screws up my work flow… i’ve gotten quite used to hitting F12 or shift+F12

\*\* is there anything i can do to get DWMX2002 to refresh the browser, and not show me a TEMP file…\*\*
