Hi Mike,
Just looking at the source code for the page I can see that the code
for the tabbed area includes HTML code for an entire page (starting
with right through to ). Cut the tabbed area snippet
down to just the code required for that part of the page and you
should be in much better shape. I can’t guarantee that IE will render
the tabs but if the page validates then you’ll certainly be a lot
closer.
Regards,
Tim.

Not at all. This is something that gets asked a lot, and the answer
is, no, not directly.

There’s a reason. Freeway is an idiot-savant. It doesn’t understand
HTML. It writes it better than most humans, but it can’t read a single
angle-bracket of it. So it doesn’t use it at all.

Inside a Freeway document, you will find a rich object model of the
entire site, and each page is represented by an abstract and highly
precise code model of your design that bears no relation to HTML. Each
time you publish, that model is converted into a highly-optimized HTML
representation, which gets saved to a file. It has about as much to do
with the original Freeway file as a printed page or a PDF does to a
desktop publishing application’s native document format.

Now, to answer your question, here’s the trick I have always used. Get
a good code editor, like TextWrangler (free) or BBEdit or TextMate or
Coda (not free). In Freeway, in the File / Preview in Browser submenu,
choose Browser Setup. Edit the list that pops up to include your new
text editor. Then, when you want to preview the source code for the
page that Freeway is going to generate for you, simply choose File /
Preview In Browser / [your editor here]. Freeway will generate the
page code, the editor will open it, and you can see every bit of the
code.

But understand carefully – nothing you do to that code in the editor
will have the slightest effect on your site. Freeway treats its
generated code as a throw-away artifact, and the next time you
publish, it will overwrite your changes with the most efficient code
possible to represent the current state of your design.

This is a helpful way to understand the code that Freeway is writing,
and it’s an excellent way to learn really solid layout code technique,
particularly in table layout mode – Freeway consistently outperforms
most humans in that arena. But if you want to change the code, you
need to figure out how to do that in Freeway. Depending on what kind
of changes you need and why, this may take the form of Markup Items,
Item / Extended, or changing the order or nesting of layers in the
Site pane.
