Boxed note

The warning is overstated. Although Dreamweaver has indeed already rewritten the
code by the time it displays the "Warning" message, it does NOT automatically save
the rewritten file. While you can't cancel the changes or even use the Undo
function, you can simply close the file without saving changes, and the original file
will still exist in its original location in its untouched form.

the name of the menu on the form page."
