I was working on a new HTML page that had several nested divs, one was a div
containing several lists, floated to the left of the page. The div ID had been
styled (internal style) and the style was displayed properly in the "Design"
window. I split the window to show code, so I could tweak one of the lists
directly, and added a <p> tag, than a [BULLET] then a [LI]</li>, etc etc. When
I clicked "Refresh" all the styling disappeared from the "Design" window,
leaving only unformatted text, and 2 yellow-highlited orphaned </div> tags!
Selecting Edit>Undo did not restore the display.

Looking at the code, I see the id styling is still there, and the inline <div
id="..."> tags are also there (and correct), but the ID tags are displayed in
black instead of the usual tag-blue. The tag bar at the bottom of the window
shows no styles. Of the 5 ID styles on the page, 2 of them continue to function
correctly. To confuse further, when I preview the file in my browser, the page
displays correctly.

What did I do? And how do I get it back? :-(
