Hi. I'm using DWMX2004 on a PC and everything has been great until a few minutes ago when things got weird.
I'm bolding text and it was behaving and placing [strong][/strong]. But now when bold something it automatically puts in [span style="font-weight: bold"]. what the hell?
I can go change it of course but I don't get why it's deciding to put this ugly ass code in now. Anyone have this happen?

this is in preferences
Use HTML or CSS

by default DW2004 has it set to CSS instead of HTML - it's annoying because it tries to use CSS for every little thing.

it tries to separate code from content for you, which is something to strive toward I think

it is possible that yoru DTD has changed it'.
for instance, when you declare a page as XHTML, DW automatically closes all tags (liek br/ vs. br)
since "strong" is a new web standard, it may be doning the same thing. you may have declared the page as being super-backward compatible or something/
