The way it is is perfectly fine...
its a file extension. It does NOTHING apart from say what opens it.
.html is more fiendly for me than .tpl, as dream weaver wont open .tpl files, and it was an arse just to change say a single word or something when i wanted to... used to have to use notepad (Poor program) but now DW makes it alot easier.
.html is better for the majority... and for those that love the .tpl can just treat them as .tpl

I may have said it a little wrong... going through dw MX -> open -> tpl file, is ok... but Win Win XP doesnt like to list dream weaver in my programs list
Re: Some Question
I have fireworkd MX too, both are registered, but only fireworks displays in that list.
I dont know if i might have deleted it from the list or not in the past... once DW was on that list! (plus its associated with all files but .tpl!)

Re: Some Question
Or Alternatively perhpas he is using Dreamweaver MX (or MX2004), which, by default, does not open those files. And tracking down the relevent setting was darn hard I can tell you!

Re: Some Question
all i did was go to my documents. clicked on the tools button then selected folder options. i selected the file types tab.
I scrolled to TPL then clicked the change button and chose dreamweaver as the default program. i didnt make any changes in dreamweaver itself.

Re: Some Question
My Zend Studio seems to like tpl's just fine... can't remember if i set it up to or not.
