http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/Downloads/DownloadDetails.aspx?DownloadID=17185
Please do not be surprised that update is named Office2007-xxxxx since designer (aka Microsoft Visual Studio Web Authoring Component) uses Office 2007 components, similar to Expression Web and SharePoint Designer 2007 and hence update comes as Office 2007 update.
The update addresses the following Connect bugs:
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=362593: DropDownList ListItem Collection Editor doesn’t save changes to aspx source file when DropDownList is inside a container
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=390933: Changes in design view not sychronized to source view in VS2008 SP1

http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=411158: HTML (Source code) not updating to match Design view
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=386027: No Property Serialization When Control is within an Editable Designer Region
http://connect.microsoft.com/VisualStudio/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=404359: VISUAL STUDIO 2008 SP 1 still has HTML editor bug where it corrupts aspx/html code.
As well as issues with DevExpress controls not persisting changes to HTML and various related issues reported in forums.
Thanks
Mikhail

We need this patch cause it corrupts html code seriously!
Any news on when this patch is going to be re-released? I’m spending too long removing " " from my code 🙁
Pretty pathetic job here. This issue has gone on for months and still no stable hotfix?
We have been working hard to get this hotfix ready. Our ETA is early next week.
I appreciate everyone’s patience on this.
Thank you.
Any news on the update? I keep correcting the Urls that gets changed for no reason in my files…
I’m not sure if I had less problem before or after this fix. Should I uninstall it?
The update will be going out tonight or tomorrow at the latest. As soon as its published, I will post here.
Thanks.

THANKS!!
Any news on this issue?
Or has the work on this item stopped because VS2010 will be released soon?
Who cares about hotfixes when people are supposed to buy a new version (such a hotfix does not bring any money, the new version does – sorry for being a little sarcastic…)
Before they took it down, I got the last version, and it seems to work. I’m kind of worried now that there was another problem, and that’s why it’s been removed again. Any info, MS?
The links have been updated to point to the correct download page.
Thank you.
Friends there is a simple solution for this…for those hot fix didnt work
Remove all spaces and carriage returns with in the control. Problem will be solved
for eg: if your control is like
<Select>
<Option>1</Option>
<Option>2</Option>
</Select>
Solution is to make the mark up as following
<Select><Option>1</Option><Option>2</Option></Select>
Let me know whether you are still facing this issue
