Have you tried uninstalling it?

or "My Preferences -> User Preferences -> Select WYSIWYG to use: none"

Thanks Wishbone and uniqu3 - I think I'll go with User Preferences.

You can also set it to not start on page load, which will let you turn it on if needed...

Hi Wishbone - just didn't like the way it kept interfering with my code. It would add extra divs and didn't like anything unusual like the code I used for my rounded corner boxes:

<div class="rcbox">
<div class="rctop">
<div></div></div>

I had to comment the empty divs and put them on single lines:
<div class="rcbox">
<div class="rctop">
<div><!--comment--></div>
</div>

I ended up doing what Dr.CSS has suggested and disabled it at startup, once I found that option. I don't need it for myself but wil need to know how it works for clients.

Thanks.
