The Importance of Secure Web Forms: A Real Life Example

DISCLAIMER:  This post neither condones nor promotes the intentional misuse/abuse of web forms.  It merely illustrates how easy it can be to defeat form security when web developers don't exercise proper due diligence.   BACKGROUND:  The great State of Georgia saw fit to create a Voter Cancellation Portal on their State's official website.  It was intended to help those registered in Georgia update their voter status if, for example, they moved out of state and are no longer eligible to vote in Georgia.  It would also allow family members to remove a deceased relative from the voter rolls.    HOW IT WORKS:  Users with sufficient information can go online to remove their own or someone else’s name from the State's database of registered voters.  It requires no special log-in ID or password, just a few clicks on the State's website form.  Easy, peasy.   PROBLEM: Shortly after its launch, the Voter Cancellation Portal

Replacing server side includes?

I manage a static website that uses straightforward html coding on thousands of pages that have use server side includes for the header and footer. The site was recently moved from a rickety old server to the cloud and I am told that I cannot use SSIs anymore so when the site goes public it will be missing the headers and footers. Is there an alternative to SSIs that puts info on each page that can be changed? For example, the footer says "copyright 2024" and on Jan 1 each year I update that. I am assuming that I will need to edit each page to insert whatever replaces the SSI, but that would be a one-time thing. I hope. I'm using Dreamweaver 21.4 on a Mac, in case that's useful. The cloud storage network is the Ontario Library Research Cloud, and I have to use a web interface (Openstack Horizon) to upload files, and it uses an object-based storage system instead of the hierarchical system I'm used to (but luckily it mimics it!).Thanks, Madeline

Site not publishing

Hi. I could use some help please. I'm helping my wife with her website and I'm stumped. The changes we made to her index HTML file aren't showing on her website. I've put any new files to the remote site and Dreamweaver is successfully connecting to the site via FTP. As someone who is unfamilar with Dreamweaver, is there something I'm missing like a "Publish Site" button? Thank you in advance!

Dreamweaver relative pathway settings

Can anyone tell me how to prevent Dreamweaver from automatically changing pathways when I move folders? There are times I want to break links by moving files, but Dreamweaver has started to change the pathway without notifying me. I just want to turn this setting off, so that it never does this.  Thanks,

v21.4 Randomly ceases ability to copy and paste code and displays the wrong code for page

What is going on? Why does this happen? No keyboard shortcuts work... going to Edit > Select All is ignored, too... I can type in code, but no clipboard ops? Save is also Disabled? Are you kidding?   When I try to Save As, it tries to save a completely different page in the editor - the first tab,, not the current active tab! When I try to then save the first tab, I get this cryptic message: ---------------------------Dreamweaver---------------------------The file you just saved is also open in this window.Reload the saved version in this window and lose changes?---------------------------Yes No--------------------------- What on Earth does that mean? I just bloody saved the file, of course it is open in the window...  Whati s happening, Adobe?

I can't collapse all folders at once after doing a file upload

I did "edit: select recently modified" in the "remote/local site" page, and uploaded those files. All the folders and sub-folders are now open. I used to be able to close them globally by doing "ctrl -" on the "site" folder, then just the plus (+) sign. And all folders were closed. It's not working like that any more. Any hints on how to globally collapse all folders? I don't know how many hundreds of folders I have; I'd rather not do each one separately... Some of the forums indicate that there should be + and - signs on the folders; the screenshot is what my site looks like, no + and - signs.

ftp error cannot make connection to host user limit reached or not authorized

So i started my PC today and for no resason at all, without changes or updates, i can no longer connect to my host address. Now this isnt your usual situation as I have tried everything. I could still connect to other site hosts from DW. I could still connect to my host with FileZilla no problem. So , I switched to use a hotspot thinking maybe a router issue, no dice. I never needed ti before, but i dropped my firewalls and security. Nothing. I contact my hosting company, no issues on their end as I can stil connectwith Filezilla and no server changes. Now, I decided to unistall Dreamweaver....everytime I reinstall, the same site definitions come back and same issue. I tried purging EVERYTHING DW from my PC...ever registry entries, as many temp files as i could find. Still imports site definitions and same problem. Please help. Nothing is working and Adobe is preventing  me from a totally clean install. Al of my defined sites return and I dont want them to in order to see if a fre

How do i move a Dreamweaver site to a new location and keep the GIT repository?

OK, I think this is a pretty simple situation, but it's causing me no end of trouble! May be someone here can help. What I want to do is very simple: I need to move the local folder for a dreamweaver site to a new location. The complication is that this site has a GIT reposisitory. In the site's current location the GIT repository is working very nicely, along with a remote set up to a GitLab remote repository. All well and good so far. I started by copying the local folder from it's current location to the new location. I checked and the .git hidden folder and .gitignore hidden file got copied to the new location along with all the visible files. I then went into Dreamweaver and edited the site definition so that the path to the new local folder pointed to the new location. (I also checged the server definition as that is moving as well.) At this point Dreameaver always crashed, so I just restarted Dreamweaver. Only now all the stuff in the GIT panel is all gr

OT: CrowdStrike Outage Disrupts Businesses Worldwide

Microsoft said it was aware of an issue affecting Windows programs running cybersecurity technology from CrowdStrike. Here’s how flights, hospitals and services were affected.   Mass IT outages have caused disruptions around the world — with thousands of flights canceled or delayed and online services down at airports, hospitals, banks and businesses. Many Microsoft users started their day with an error screen — dubbed the “blue screen of death,” or BSOD error. https://archive.ph/20240719165916/https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2024/07/19/crowdstrike-microsoft-outage-cause-windows-explainer/#selection-647.130-651.144

Dreamweaver latest version keeps crashing

When I try to change properties of an image through the Properties panel, Dreamweaver 2020 (up-to-date) crashes randomly -- too often for comfort, it's annoying and absolute breaks my workflow. And when reopened, it lists only the file that experienced the crash for recovery, from all the files that were open, not reopening all. And using the wrong view, it doesn't save that, either. I use Catalina on a MacBook Pro. The crash report opens every time and tells me there's no solution for the problem. For how long, Adobe? What about fixing select + option + drag copy, matching selected items from design view in code view and other issues? These are real problems delaying our work.

Dreamweaver pages will NOT load when I upload them.

When I attempt to edit my web pages in Dreamweaver, and upload them to my site, they WILL NOT load at all. The old page remains, and even  AFTER I delete the old page off the server entirely. When I reload the edited page, the OLD page is STILL THERE. NOTHING WORKS. My web host company cannot find the problem! This glitch is costing me money and making me angry. It needs to be fixed. I have no idea what to do. I've tested it in several browsers, and it's the same thing.

HelloI have an issue where my site opens to the 'about' section rather than the top, i.e. 'home'. I see nothing in the HTML code directing that to occur.I have one scrolling index page seperated into sections.Home is id=C1, but it opens to id=C4, 'about'.is there somewhere else I can look, other than the Source Code of my site, to maybe figure this out?Thanks!!

Edit Dreamweaver Template

I recently was forced to switch from Dreamweaver CS3 to DW 21, kind of a big jump. I'm trying to edit a template. I only have one template in the site, but when I open it, it's not editable. I've viewed the help files with Adobe (open and edit a template file), but no matter how I open the template, it's not editable. I've not doubt that I'm missing something simple, but any insight would be most appreciated.

Error After Making Updates

We use Dreamweaver to maintain our staff directory. We make changes in Dreamweaver and save them. The changes are then uploaded to our staff directory in SharePoint. Right now, we get an error on the staff directory page where any change was made. Why is this happening? Is it a problem on the Dreamweaver side or a problem with SharePoint?
