Configuring the Objects palette for a doctype

After you set a document's doctype, GoLive automatically disables buttons on the toolbar and menu commands so that you can't add elements that are not compliant with the DTD for the current doctype. For example, because font elements are not compliant with the XHTML Basic DTD, GoLive automatically disables the Bold, Italic, and Color buttons in the toolbar and the Font menu commands.

The one exception where GoLive does not automatically disable tools are the icons in the Objects palette. You must manually configure the Objects palette if you want to hide the icons for elements that are not allowed in the current doctype.

Note: You can't configure the Objects palette for an imported DTD.

To configure the Objects palette for a doctype:

1. In the Objects palette, choose Configure from the palette menu.
2. Do one of the following:
• Choose GoLive to show all icons in the Objects palette.
• Choose the current doctype to hide the icons for elements not allowed in the current doctype.
