    I just made a big mistake by loading all my sites pages to Word from dreamweaver to do a spell check (i couldnt find a dang spell check on dreamweaver) so it all checked and i load it back up to dreamweaver and all the code is changed and all the pages are messed up a little, this sucks i just got done rebuilding this site for the second time and its messed up again, is there a way i can fix it without having to go through the code and changing everything?

    From my experience with Dreamweaver....no. I know that this is not a help now, but next time you should copy and paste the text into notepad. Word and frontpage are for the birds. I do paranoid backups as well in cygwin where my local site sits. I have a perl script that does backups while I am working....that has always proved useful. Hope that helps, and good luck!

    Otherwise there's a very good and free coding editor called PSPad
    (http://www.pspad.com/en/) which has many neat features such
    as spell checking. Might want to give it a try. I used dreamweaver,
    too ... before I found PSPad ;)

    Always keep a backup, untouched copy.
