Dreamweaver

I've recently added a new site to my dreamweaver CS6 version and have inputted the correct credentials etc but when clicking the Test, I'm getting the message "An FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to host. Dreamweaver encountered an internal data error. Please try the operation again".This is not my first website hosting via dreamweaver and the others tested out fine. Cant quite understand why this isn't working. Anyone experience any similar issues and how they managed to resolve?

I do NOT WANT TO PREVIEW (.php includes) like this <?php include("file__name.php") ?> in Dreamweaver.  Can someone help this stop?It's just this one include that is showing onmy code page and I have several others:<?php include("file__name.php") ?> Takk ...

I have the site on Dreamweaver that is ready to become a live site and I download GitKraken but I can't seem to associate a Git Repository with this site? I have used preferences on my mac and Dreamweaver but it doesn't seem to work still.    

How can i import my website (that I built in dreamweaver) in Transip?

I want to add alt text to my gifs and, I have written it into the alt text but, it isn't showing. I don't know if it just works for images but, I want to have the alt text being show alongside my gifs on the site. I had attached the screenshot to help provide contexts in wanting to add text with the image.

Hi, I am unable to select a line and lines of code when i use my mouse to try and select it. I am also unable to set the position of where I would like to add code with my mouse and to work around that I have to double click on a line and then move the entry point with my keyboard arrows. Is there a fix for this? Thank you 

My Dreamweaver has lost the arrows on the top of hte file list  (in Developer work space) that triggers uploading the selected files to the remote server.       I dont remember doing anything to hide them.      How do I re-enable the FTP function?   When I  look at the site definitions,   the Remote server is still defined and Dreamweaver can still connect ok,  but I am unable to find how to send my files to the remote server.   Any ideas what I've done?  CheersMike KearWindsor, NSW, Austalia  

Hello.  Is it advisable to make a bootstrap 4 dropdown on the navbar hover?  I have read that it should only be used for the largest screen size.  Any thoughts? Does anyone know of an active forum to ask questions about Bootstrap 4 on the web? Thanks. 

I cannot find anything related to Dreamweaver at Adobe MAX sessions.  Why are there none, zero related to Dreamweaver?  No love from Adobe?

If you go here:http://ancestry.higgsy.co.uk/the search worksIf you go to my dev version here:http://v38.ancestry.higgsy.co.uk/it doesn't work.  I think the first one works by passing the search term to a google search.  The second one I got by inserting it from the DW Bootstrap Insert panel (I hope the nice Mr Osgood will not harass me for that!) What else do I need to add to the second one to make it work?  I have searched for the answer but all the tutorials I look at seem to concentrate on using CSS to format it, not tell me how it actually works - many thanks

HelloThe pages under development are all transcribed audios.One page with formatted text that I did a Word import.I am using an external style sheet.  A basic text style sheet.Paragraphs and H tags.To see how the page loads – I have different colors to test the header tags. For h4 (orange), h5 (green) , h6 (blue). The header tags do not show up in any browsers.  If I adjust the paragraphs those changes show up.I have my teststyles at the root and in folder …css<link rel="textstyles" type="text/css"  src="textstyles.css"/><link href="../../../css/textstyles.css" rel="textstyles"  src="textstyles.css"/> Last week I noticed this behavior thinking that the saved as textstyles.css needed to settle into the Server. Here is one of the transcription pages that I am working on.  I will have eventually over a 100 transcription pages – all uncomplicated word document – using this simply css file to establish uniformity.Let me know what can be done to

Hello again.  I am using server side includes for the header and footer in Dreamweaver.  I am using Bootstrap 4. header.shtml and footer.shtml. Many SEO techniques have changed in the past several years when I was designing - been out of the loop for 6 years. If I use a SSI header and include the proper meta data will the search engines pick up on them?  Title and description, etc.   Also when I build each page I am thinking I should leave all the <head></head> data out as it will be inserted from the header.shtml file. Am I correct? If anyone has an idea of where I can find new pertainent info on SEO now that would really help me.  I have found some but thought I would ask all of you as well as many of you have been using it recently. As usual, thanks for all of your help.

I've done some new pages & have done nothing to existing pages, but did modify 2 css files.  Now the pages that were fine 2 days ago don't show at all - no error messages, nothing - just blank page.  I have restored earlier versions of the 2 css files, but that didn't help.  Does anyone have a clue about where I should look?  Parsing every bit of code when you don't know what you're looking for is pretty daunting.Thanks,Gail

I had a web page that worked fine. Then I added a table. The table displayed fine in Dreamweaver Design mode, but in Live mode the cell spacing was missing. Also horizontal rules did not display. The same display problems existed in a browser. I slowly deleted parts of my page and while I found that deleting the dropdown menu did not solve the problem, deleting the three lines of code needed for bootstrap implementation of dropdown menu did solve the cell spacing and horizontal rule problem. The lines deleted from the "head" were: <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/css/bootstrap.min.css"><script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.5.1/jquery.min.js"></script><script src="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.4.1/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> This is the first time I had used bootstrap. I used it because it appeared that the very old method I had used in the past to create

It doesn't matter if I try the preview icon in the lower right of the edit window or go to FILE > OPEN IN BROWSER, I cannot get Dreamweaver to preview in any browser. Nothing happens. This is how my preferences are set:

Images when inserted into web page go in with incorect addressing.Current method - place cursor in document where image is to be located - click on "Insert" --> "Image" --> Select Image. Image arrives with complete address back to root. Need it to be the same as the directory with image. Both files need to be in same directory. Problem only started recently. Worked good before. Files created locally, then manually uploaded to site.

We have a web site launched in 1996 that needs someone familiar with DW v20.   Making it https secure. The site is about 700 pages.  I realize this is not a job-posting platform, but we'd love to have someone available for this project, and a host of other issues that need ongoing attention.    Charles Prowell [Link and email removed by moderator, per forum policy.]

If you had read and interpreted the OP's question properly, you would have noticed that they did not want a font that was larger than the desktop version; they wanted a font that was larger than what they were seeing in their handheld device. From that, I deducted that the page/site was not mobile optimised. The best way to solve that problem is to properly optimize the site. Not having access to the code, I thought that one way to solve the problem is to use the viewport meta tag. Right or wrong, who is to say? Sorry I could NOT reply to the original thread as someone has seen fit to lock that for some peculiar reason, because a debatable and polite discusion was in flow.....hummm. Well its obviously wrong IF you beleive in the concensors of opinion from those of us that contribute regularly around here (including yourself) is to teach good practices? Creating a horizontal scroll bar on a mobile device (which is what 'shrink-to-fit=no' is going to do IF the OPs website

Been using Dreamweaver CS5.5 for years and now switched to CC.  Missing the HTML properties tab at the bottom of the Classic desktop view.  For those who don't recall, it's a tab that includes some basic HTML formatting, link management, etc.  Appears I have to use menu dropdowns now for the same functions.  How do I add it back?

See screenshot.  

Hello and goodday to all of you good people i am on a school quiz and need some help( where you would be able to change the background colour to maroon.)(where you could view a different device pixel setting)(Click the menu that would allow setting of preferences of the web authoring tool)(click the file / page selector that allows you to change the formatting style of the website)

I wanted to enlarge my text so that people using their cell phones could read it easily. I had already added code <meta name=" "viewport”" content="”width=device-width," initial-scale="1?" />so that users could see a more mobile-friendly version, but still, I wanted the users to see a much bigger font when they opened the pages. I dragged over text and chose XXL size, but the more I did that, the longer and longer it took for my program to respond, and it was taxing the processor because my laptop fan was running all the time. Any reasons and solutions?  

I'm using Adobe Dreamweaver 2021 and my collegue is using an older version.  When following the same exact steps, she is able to go to File>Import>XML into Template to create an htm file from the xml.  When I follow the same steps, the XML into Template option is greyed out/not enabled.  We both have an htm file open, which used to be the ony prerequisite for this option to be enabled.I've tried having an htm file open, an xml, no files open, etc but the Import>XML into Template is always greyed out.  The user guide doesn't seem to offer a solution for if the option is greyed out. Anyone know what I need to do to get the File>Import>XML into Template feature enabled in DW 2021?
