In visual studio when I lay-out my html code,
Visual studio decides otherwise, and puts all
the lines behind each other. This makes it
difficult to find things you are looking for in
the code. I know I can use <! comment>,
which will bring a line upto the l.h. margin,
but that isn't an option for all the code lines.
Is there a way to do this?

Many thanks,
Adrian.
 
Well, I start off with lines like so:
<.....................>
<.....................>
then, after a while, Visual Studio changes my layout
for it to be like so:
<.....................><.....................>
When you are looking for something, that is
a bit difficult, because the layout is one big glorous
mess and things are hard to find.

In 1.1. it is a known problem with no solution. VS mangles your html when
you switch to the Design View and back. Try to minimize using the Design
View. When you do use it, always switch back to the Html View and press
ctrlZ (Undo) twice. It should restore your formatting.
