Sorry to see that go, another excellent efficiency gone and email coders are left in the dust.

Not really. The Property inspector gives access only to the most frequently used attributes. All attributes, including deprecated ones and new ones from HTML5, can be found in the Tag Inspector panel.

I do not see a border property in the tag inspector. Do I have to add it to the inspector somehow?

I've just checked, and you're right. The border property is not listed in the Tag Inspector. It was in the Tag Inspector in Dreamweaver CS5.5, but has now been removed.

It looks as though Dreamweaver CS6 has been brought into line with the HTML5 standard, which doesn't permit the border attribute on images: http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/the-img-element.html#the-img-element.

The code hint for the border attribute has also been removed.

You can't add new items to be Tag Inspector. If you want to add border="0" to an image, you'll need to type it in manually.

Right. 

/**this removes borders from all linked images**/

a img {border:none}

It does for me (CS6 on W7-64, or on iMac / SnowLeopard) - right click on the image in Design view and you get a long context menu, with "Edit Tag" being below "Templates".

But you should not use this method for your images. CSS is the right way to go.

The problem with leaving it is that it inserts code that renders your page invalid.  Page validation is a very important tool in debugging layout problems.  People who don't understand this usually try validating the page to find tens if not hundreds of validation problems.  There's too much noise to find the signal.  People who do understand this, and who are reasonably confident (and competent) at producing valid pages will start debugging a layout problem with a validation process that finds fewer than 10 errors (an arbitrary number).  That is much easier to cope with.

 

Please put the border field back in the properties pane. This is a very useful field for giving linked images a border of "0" It saves us designers a lot of time. Why should I manually have to type: border="0"?

You don't need to add border="0" to each and every linked image to remove the browser-applied border.

If you add the single line shown below to your site's external linked stylesheet, you'll never see another border on a linked image in your entire site again.

a img { border: none; }

where "a img" = all image tags found inside an anchor tag i.e. all linked images

We don't care what is HTML standard, CSS, or something else. It's the job of Adobe developers. We only need the RESULTS.

 

Why would we use Dreamweaver? coz it's EASY to use, we can make a simple web site without any programming knowledge, we don't need to learn CSS, JavaScript or AJAX

Try Adobe Muse instead. It sounds like it's more suited to your needs.
