The default value of the argument is false. Dreamweaver automatically uses the untranslated
source for subsequent calls to
dw.getSelection(), dw.setSelection(),
dw.nodeToOffsets(), and dw.offsetsToNode() when the script that calls
dw.useTranslatedSource() finishes executing, if dw.useTranslatedSource() is not explicitly
called with an argument of
false before then.
Returns
Nothing.
Window functions
Window functions handle operations that are related to the Document window and the floating
panels. The window functions show and hide floating panels, determine which part of the
Document window has focus, and set the active document. For operations that are related
specifically to the Site panel, see“Site functions” on page 558.
Macromedia Dreamweaver MX introduces a new user interface, known as the multiple document
interface (MDI). This interface, or type of workspace, is optional but it is also the default
workspace. In the multiple document interface, Dreamweaver MX integrates all the documents
into one parent container in which you can dock all objects and panels. If you prefer, you can
choose to work in the Dreamweaver 4 workspace, in which you manage separate, floating
windows. The Dreamweaver 4 workspace is also called the classic workspace. You can switch from
one type of workspace to the other through Dreamweaver MX Preferences
Note: Some of the functions in this section operate only in MDI mode and only on the Windows operating system.
The description of the function indicates whether this is the case.
