Get the firebug extension for firefox.
Thats should sort you out.

Set your editor to use "Windows Newlines" or something like that, depending on how they word it. Many editors allow you to switch this configuration. Windows newlines use both Mac and Linux newlines together, and should work on every system.

Try notepad++ if you're on Windows, it is quick to install and should produce readable code.

You can also get notepad++. Right now what's happening is that your OS has HTML mapped to notepad. You can either 1) have HTML mapped to nothing. Or 2) Get Notepad++ or Dreamweaver and map the HTML extension to that. Or map it to firefox. That will also work.

If you have HTML mapped to nothing, then firefox/opera/ie/safari will handle it. I use Opera by the way. It's lightning! Don't bother with the cell phone version though.

Anyways, the way to change your extensions is to go to your explorer window and do Tools --> Folder Options --> File Types. On the left you should have HTM and/or HTML.

It probably is one line. I don't do this with html but with css I optimize it to a single line when I put the site online. That saves more than 30% of the bandwidth every time the sheet is loaded.

You don't see the characters for the line breaks and spaces in a css or html sheet, but they are there and the server has to supply them and the browser has to load them. I think a couple text editors let you make them visible.

So basically you have to put the html in a text editor and break it up yourself. Or you can find the html optimizer the person used and it probably has a reverse process.

Here is an example of a css optimizer that works well. Clean CSS - A Resource for Web Designers - Optmize and Format your CSS

I'm not interested enough to bother with the html version but shouldn't be hard to find one. If they exist, not sure about that.

Edit: here's one. http://www.iwebtool.com/html_optimizer

If you copy / paste that source into visual studio, you can auto lay out the code and it will space it out / align it better for you.

You may also want to consider installing the Firefox Web Developer toolbar extension. It has a "View Source" menu with an item called "View Generated Source" which will show you the "rendered" source as the DOM sees it. This is different than the vanilla view source that comes standard in browsers that just shows the raw HTML sent to the browser. The generated/rendered source shows what it looks like after JavaScript manipulates the HTML DOM tree.

Hi,

There are lots of free HTML editor/Code editor software out there that can help with web development. Notepad, whilst simple, is not the best. Some of the good software out there will help by looking for and pointing out any mistakes you make as you code. And you'll not have any word wrap issues. Its definately worth the switch.

Try www.htmlkit.com and Note Tab Pro (both free)

Cheers

Try to use "Dream weaver" to edit your site...may be here is a solution of your problem..
