Code coloring 99

innerTag

This value is identical to the

outerTag value, except that the tag coloring is taken from the

scheme inside the delimiters. This is currently used for the

html tag.

nameTag

This value specifies that the

blockStart string is the opening of a tag and blockEnd string is the

closing of a tag, and these delimiters are to be colored based on the tag settings of the scheme.

This type of scheme displays tags that can be embedded inside other tags, such as the

cfoutput

tag.

Sample code

<input type="text" name="zip"

<cfoutput query="employee"> Value="#zip#" </cfoutput>

</cfif>

Example

<blockStart doctypes="ColdFusion,CFC"

scheme="nameTag"><![CDATA[<cfoutput\n]]></blockStart>

nameTagScript

This value is identical to the

nameTag scheme; however, the content is script, such as assignment

statements or expressions, as opposed to attribute

name=value pairs.

This type of scheme displays a unique type of tag that contains script inside the tag itself, such as

the ColdFusion

cfset, cfif, and cfifelse tags, and can be embedded inside other tags.

Sample Code

See the sample text for nameTag.

Example

<blockStart doctypes="ColdFusion,CFC"

scheme="nameTagScript"><![CDATA[<cfset\n]]></blockStart>

Scheme processing

Dreamweaver has three basic code coloring modes: CSS mode, Script mode, and Tags mode.

In each mode, Dreamweaver applies code coloring only to particular fields. The following chart

indicates which fields are subject to code coloring in each mode.
