Disable CSS in Dreamweaver CS3 ?

    Is there a way to disable auto CSS addition to an HTML document in Dreamweaver?

    For example, say when I change the font size I want it to appear in the source code like: <font size=1> instead of adding the CSS code to the top of the document source.

    I like to edit my WP posts in Dreamweaver and this is causing a problem.

    Umm...that is actually a good thing. <font> is a bad,bad way to do things - this is what CSS is for.

    Dreamweaver CS3 is much more standards compliant than earlier editions, and is doing it the right way, although you should throw it into an external stylesheet rather than the header.

    You go to dreamweaver prefs and under general uncheck the css option...

    And to the first reply: there are times when you can't use css and have to go old school - such as some web emailings.

    yes, sometimes you don't need CSS like for a simple task of creating an email signature with outlook express... for some reason it won't read the css in the html so i had to remove it.
