We're trying to advertise our business on Yelp, so I need to create a landing page to insert into our existing website. Our website was created before my time and it's a web store, so they used OpenCart to create it. Our IT person created an "information" page for me to use as the landing page and OpenCart seems to have its own internal HTML code editor. I can't seem to find much online help for OpenCart that addresses these particular problems, either.I was hoping I could save time using Muse instead of Dreamweaver, but OpenCart didn't seem to like the extra code that Muse created. So I'm trying to simplify it using plain HTML. OpenCart doesn't seem to give me access to the HTML page's header, so I'm not sure how to set up internal CSS rules and I don't know if there's even a way to use an external CSS document.So I'm trying to do most formatting with old-school HTML. But it still isn't working. Most instructions I've found online involve using either internal or external CSS which is

I really just want to save 1000 pdf to html.  I'm current using the OLE server on Windows thru Matlab.  I can load and open a document just fine.  however, I want to open a document and then call SaveAsHTML.  I can open an AformAut.App object but can't figure out how to "bind" it to the AVDoc.  The API reference seems to indicate that this is done automatically, but when I call myAformAutObj.Fields.ExportAsHtml('myfilename'), its just an empty html file.  How do I manually link the plugin to the doc?Best regards,John

Hi Helpful People:My website is www.kairosprisonministry.org. I have three program images in a Bootstrap Jumbotron, centered in a <div>. The background color is a light blue, and the images have a photo on top, and are in a white box with text as part of the image.I did this to get the site up, because I don't know how to do what I really want. It would be much better to have the text as real text, so it's searchable, but still have the boxes look the same. I'm pretty sure it has something to do with creating a div and using the picture as a background, but I can't for the life of me figure it out. Other sites seem to be able to do it.And if I did that, would it work in a responsive design? I need the text to stay below the picture, obviously.Thanks for your help.Here is a screenshot: 

I am trying to generate an arithmetic and geometricseries/sequence with JavaScript. The thing that makes this challenging is thatI am using user input to determine different parts of the formula I am using togenerate each sequence. I have tried to run the formulas, but I found out i wasrunning strings through them and not numbers. How do I generate mysequences/series and still use user input? PS, these are my formulas: (a1 isfirst term, d and r are difference/ratio, and n is the nth term) 1.) a1 + d * n   2.)a1 * r^n

I am using ExtendScript Toolkit 4.0.0.1 on a Mac with system 10.10.5. It goes into the spinning beachball often when I drag to select text or click to place the insertion point somewhere else in the code. There is some hesitation when I type in it. When I looked for a newer version it says the most recent version is 3.8.What is the real up to date version? Where can I get it? Is there a way to unfreeze the app? Command-. doesn't help.

I need to make a numbering sequence like: box #1 or 2000, (next label) box #2 of 2000 and so on until box #2000 of 2000. There are 10 labels on each sheet, 2 columns of 5 labels (4 x 2"). Is there an existing method in InDesign or script a script available perform this task?

I'm developing a Photoshop CC 2015 CEP extension using AngularJS and MobileAngularUI. The extension works great on a Mac, but when I load it to a Windows machine and test, I get some strange errors. First, MobileAngularUI was throwing an error that FastClick was not defined. I managed to patch that one, but seems odd that it only appeared when I loaded it on Windows. Now, AngularJS is not working and I am getting the error "TypeError "<ng-view class="ng-scope">" Cannot read property "prototype" of undefined. Tried another test starting from an empty extension and was able to use only Angular, but when I tried to load in the MobileAngularUI libraries, I received the same errors.I tried a test using Bootstrap (no MobileAngularUI) and got another error (only on the Windows machine) that Bootstrap.js requires jQuery. However, the jQuery script tag was in the index.html file and it was before the bootstrap.js script tag.Both the Windows and Mac machines are setup as development enviro

Hi all, I have been following a tutorial on drag and drop using mouse buttons. I need to do this using touch gestures Touch and Drag.I have the code to do this already but now either I need to start again or convert the code I already have.I have  movieClips as shapes and shape targets.  The idea is for the correct moviclip to be dragged to the correct targets. If the movieclip hits the correct target it stops and if the wrong target it returns to its starting position. I know I can use hit test point to confirm the moviclips have gone to correct targets.Like I say i have the code to do this with mouse clicks but not sure where to start for mobile devices. I'm new to coding and thought it would be simple to change from mouse to gestures but I don't think I have enough experience.If some wise member could help me to connect this up I would be most grateful.I have been using the function below. As far as I can tell the MovieClip is stored in a variable(item) when it is clicked

Hi,I have a field (SCharge1) in which clients specify the sales charge (0-3%) applied. I would like to check to make sure that the amount entered is between 0 and 3 however, I have modified the percentage format as to divide the amount entered by 100 so that clients can enter 1 and it equals 1% so that clients do not get confused when filling out the form. I have done this by running a custom validation script:if (event.value !== "") {event.value = event.value / 100 ;}I was wondering if there was a way to check to make sure the field is between 0-3 and if not creating an error message to modify the field?  I am unsure whether to run the check before or after the validation script and whether to combine the scripts or add a separate option. This is what I tried to check the sales charge after but to no avail:(function () {       var v = getField("SCharge1");   if(v >0.03){   var resp = app.alert({cMsg: "Fund Code does not match the Fu

I see where I can add a SWF to Cap 9 but don't see how to code for it.  Can anyone help?Thx.

I would like to pause the video I inserted in Captivate when I display some work instructions.  I am current using HTML5 and JavaScript to accomplish this.  I would like to use Captivate because my client likes Captivate.  I would also need to capture signoffs and timestamps.  Is that possible?I see a system variable called "cpCmndPause" but how do I fire that at the appropriate time?

Hi everyone, in the JavaScript Tools Guide CC (http://download.macromedia.com/pub/developer/aftereffects/scripting/JavaScript-Tools-Guide-CC.pdf), on Chapter 3 : File System Access page 49 it says for the filter of function openDialog : Optional. A filter that limits the types of files displayed in the dialog:- In Windows, a filter expression, such as "JavaScript:*.jsx;All files:*.*"- In Mac OS, a filter function that takes a File instance and returns true if the fileshould be included in the display, false if it should not.So how can I make the difference between widows and mac in my script ? This is for the moment what I have. It works for windows but I don't know if it works for mac. var filterFiles = function(file){      // IF WINDOWS       return "*.jsx;*.jsxinc";      // IF MAX       if (file.constructor.name == "Folder") { return true; }       writeLn(file.name); &n
