# View vs. HTML

 * For a while the View feature allows me to see the page as I work on it… and I
   can click over to HTML if I want to modify by using the code…
 * Then, all of the sudden… the View feature goes to displaying HTML code… Once 
   that happens, I have HTML code in both options, View and HTML…
 * Does anyone know how to fix this, or if I am doing something to create the problem?
 * Thank You in advance,
 * Tall Midget

 * When you are creating your page and from the dashboard you call up Page, new…
   the space where you enter your data has 2 tabs, View and HTML…

 * -deactivating ALL plugins temporarily to narrow down and possibly fix the problem.
   If the problem goes away, activate them individually to find the culprit.
 * -switching to the default theme (“twentyten”) for a moment by renaming your current
   theme’s folder in wp-content/themes. The idea is to force WordPress to fall back
   to the default theme to rule out any theme-specific issue.

 * View = the Visual Editor
