I just started Dreamweaver 8 to edit files directly on my server. However it keeps asking me whether or not to put/get dependent files... even though I only want to edit that one file and save that one file.

I always click "NO", yet when I hit save... it goes through and uploads all the dependent files anyway. How can I just stop altogether this "dependent file" feature... why does it even need to analyze all the other files linked to it??? This is a mess.

P.S. - I know about the 'Edit->Preferences->Site.. ->Prompt on Put/Get' ....... to my knowledge this just enables/disables the "prompt" dialogue box to ask if you want to get/put the dependent files... like i said.. i click NO and it still puts my dependents.

Use a better editor. This isn't a client-side thread, moved to general discussion.

I would recommend you use a local server instead, I would never commit anything to a live server withing testing it locally first.
