    When I go to install the dreamweaver HMTL5 extension I get a message:

    "This extension is installing a file that exists in Dreamweaver CS3. Installing this extension may affect existing functionality in Dreamweaver CS3. Do you want to continue?"

    How can I be sure that your extension adds to rather than replaces what already exists?

    Hi Steve; In CS3 there is No inherent SVN functionality, so either you've installed a previous extension, or someone elses extension that uses a menu interface 'SVN' or the extension manager is giving you a daft message.

    Eitherway 'extensions' are installed into your USER appdata cache so it would never cause you any harm to simply add the extension and check out the functionality. I've used this extension since CS came out, so its been tested (through heavy usage) in CS/CS2/CS3/CS4 and now CS5.

    CS5 contains 'native svn' which does kind of work, you get the full explorer style icons, you can commit/update etc; the only downside is that rather than utilize accessing SVN via the COM interface like most developers adobe have tried to integrate it... in the end you have something that will work with small sites but the moment you try committing, say a wordpress site, the whole thing locks up... so I still use my extension in CS5 as does the company I work for.

    Let me know how you get on with it any any problems.

    Thanks

    Chris

    Have installed HTML5 all seems OK.

    I had your SVN plugin already, very useful by the way, so was that putting up the meassage I mentioned earlier?

    Technically the HTML5 extension is flawed (you'll need to re-download it) I've removed the XHTML5 option as the actual spec used in there was a proposal rather than actual. XHTML5 will probably be about 20 years after html5 when were all living in a Tron like universe so I wouldnt worry too much over that.

    If you still want to use XHTML5 just use the following code...

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>XHTML 5</title>
<!--[if IE]>
<script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
<style>
  article, aside, details, figcaption, figure, footer, header,
  hgroup, menu, nav, section { display: block; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World</p>
</body>
</html>

    To be valid this would have to be served as application/xhtml+xml mime type on the server.

    I have read several just right stuff here. Certainly worth bookmarking for revisiting. I wonder how much effort you place to create one of these magnificent informative website.
