Text View |
In Text View, you can type in your document text directly, i.e. markup and content. Text View provides a number of features to help you quickly and accurately type in your document. Among the main features are the following:
| • | Visual features to help you read the document more easily. These include customizable syntax-coloring (including the ability to highlight server-side VBScript or JScript code in ASP pages), line-numbering, bookmarking, expandable and collapsible elements, indentation, customizable fonts, and text-wrapping. |
| • | Intelligent editing features like auto-completion of tags and automatic entry of attributes and children. |
| • | Context-sensitive entry helpers, which list allowed elements, attributes, and entities at the cursor insertion point, and allow you to insert these into the document. |
| • | Drag-and-drop and copy-and-paste capabilities. |
These features are described in more detail in the rest of this section.
To open the Text View of a document, click the Text button at the bottom of the Document Window or select View | Text view. Text view can be used to edit any text file, including non-XML documents.
