I have the folllowing tag in an ascx page
<param name="movie" value="flash\bmvtext.swf" />

every time I go to make any change on that page visual studio deletes the tag. the file wont play without it and its really annoying have to stick it back in there every time i make the tiniest change to the page. Anyone know how i can stop vs from doing this?

tnx,
Kris.
 
OT sorta: Ugh, I hate that formatting - the same thing messes up my XML formatting (in XML files and XSDs).

You can still manually format if you want, through Edit->Advanced->Format Document (which doesn't appear to remove the line you listed).

thanks for the help. I unchecked the automatic formatting options but it still insists on removing the tag. The best I could come up with is to comment out the line while working on the page, which stops it from being deleted. A bit less inconvenient than having it deleted all the time.

ta,
Kris.
