Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

This thing just added over an hour worth of work going back and deleting all the extra css it just had to add to my stylesheet with out me saving anything!! I keep seeing this thing pop up on VT and now they have a sail over on macZOT so I thought I would download it and see for myself how good it really was. I have been working on a web project for a new clint all weekend and Flux just decided to go and add a bunch on useless code with out telling me what it was doing! Just my css for the logo went form:
#logo{
position:relative;
height:140px;
width:720px;
background:#003300 url(img/logo.jpg) no-repeat 0 0;
text-indent:-9999px;
}

too

#logo{
position:relative;
float:none;
left:0px;
top:0px;
height:140px;
width:720px;
background-image:url(img/logo.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position:top left;
background-color:#003300;
background-attachment:scroll;
text-indent:-9999px;

}
and then it has the balls to tell me my xhtml can not be saved because it can not be validate. BS - it validate just fine.

Waring! Waring! Do not use!!!!!!! - what the?

so let me get this right you were building a site and decided to then use this software without making backup copies....now that is really dumb if that is the case, if no then, why not email them to sort it out?

dumb thing to do is to use any software and not keep incremental backups just incase you get it wrong.

The bottom and top CSS are equivalent, except the bottom one has all the parameters expanded and it includes some that are browser defaults.

Someone as dumb as you actually has a client? Who would try an unknown app in the middle of a project, and then work on files without backing them up?
