code indentify in Dw

I'd like some information please. Can I set the Dw with any options to indentify my php code or my html tags with dotted lines like in Notepad++ (shown in picture), or with some other method? It helps me to check where my braces or my tags start and end so not make any errors.

There is a feature in DW called 'balance braces' that will highlight everything between the opening and closing braces for PHP. It is very useful.

There is also some pretty good syntax error highlighting for PHP, so if you leave the simicolon off the end of a line, or something like that, it will alert you.

Unfortunately this is not available in DW's Code View at the moment.

This question has been asked in the past. Feel free to post your own Feature Request to Adobe.

Your only option at this stage is to use the other Coder tools available in DW.

Or use another code editor.
