Toggling the binary format


    You can toggle the binary tag format on and off, which allows you to determine whether a new tag has a complementary end tag or not. Most tags are binary tags, or container tags. Binary tags enclose the content of an element in a pair of tags, called start and end or open and close tags. By default, GoLive displays both parts of a binary tag. A few tags (called unary tags), however, don't need an end tag. One of the most frequently used unary tags is the <img> tag for embedding images.

    You can toggle the binary tag format for the currently selected element only.

To toggle the binary format on and off:

  1. In the Outline Editor, select an element that has binary tags.
  2. Do one of the following:
    • Click the Toggle Binary button Toggle Binary button  in the Outline Editor toolbar.
    • Choose Binary from the context menu.
