My page looks great cross browser, validates, and contains no tables, but in
wysiwyg one of my main divs is pushed out of the content area and off to the
right of my screen. Very frustrating...
I hope there is a setting or a fix for this because it makes me second guess
my layout.

It's a problem with Dreamweaver. DW is not a browser, but does the best
it can to render pages as a browser might. If your code truly validates,
you may just be out of luck.

I hope they address this on the next version..

Thanks

Let's see your page - perhaps there is something there and the problem is
yours, not DW's.

Just found this and I am having exactly the same problem with 2 of my sites
that were created in DW8 and just today opened in CS3. I too have validated
my code and there is no problem. The pages are fine when viewed in the browser
and the published website is fine, but within Dreamweaver's design view the
main body of text is pushed over to the right outside the main page body. Same
page is still fine when checked in DW8 on another machine, so it must be
something to do with the way CS3 previews the code in design view.

Usually when I see this behavior it is caused by a misplaced TR or TD tag. The
page still validates and looks fine in the browsers. Dreamweaver seems to choke
on a misplaced TR or TD tag. Use the code view to match up your tag pairs and
remove the misplaced one.

That won't apply to me, no tables were used.

If a <td> or <tr> is misplaced, the page won't validate.

Post a link to the page, please.

I've been playing about with this and have managed to get it to work by adding
in <p></p> right before the div tag for the centre section content. Don't
really understand why this has fixed it, but at least it's working now!
