Dreamweaver

When trying to open Dreamweaver CC 2017 on my Windows 7 PC, I receive the following error..."Dreamweaver encountered problems while constructing the menus from the current menus.xml file. Please delete the current menus.xml file and rename menus.bak to menus.xml."I've done this, and it didn't work.I've uninstalled, rebooted, and reinstalled, and it didn't work.I've followed the directions for the Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner tool, and it didn't work.I've tried starting Dreamweaver holding Windows + CTRL + Shift to remove preferences, and it didn't work.PLEASE HELP!!!!Mike

Can anyone recommend a good book that might help me learn how to style bootstrap using the latest version of Dreamweaver?  I kind of had it all figured out in C6 but this newest version seems much harder to follow since it's such a small area. I can't really find any good tutorials on line to help me so I thought I'd try buying a book. My local bookstore doesn't carry any books on Dreamweaver of Bootstrap so it looks like I'd have to order something and I don't want to order something that may not help me.

Creative Cloud Desktop app no longer lists legacy versions of CC products as it once did.  Going forward, you will see only  the newest version and the 1 previous to it  (internal terms removed)Many people need access to legacy CC versions for various reasons.   Adobe  put up this page which is grossly under represented in terms of products and versions.   We can only hope they will expand on it later...Download legacy versions of Creative Cloud apps Fortunately for us, Jim at ProDesignTools​  has made direct download links available from his website.   Thanks Jim.   What would we do without you?     2019 - https://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-2019-direct-d...      2018 - https://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-2018-direct-download-links.html      2017 - https://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-2017-direct-download-links.html      2015.5 - https://prod

Hi I was working on a school project where i had to create a website using a template, I saved the project to the creative cloud folder to open it on a different computer, but when I opened it, the template was gone and the live preview of the website looked like a simple word document file. Is there a proper way to save the project so that I am able to edit on a different laptop?

Hi,I had a few Animate CC files on my website that used to run fine. The html page loaded and the animation worked fine, but not anymore. When I go to one of the pages, I get a blank screen.My website is created in Wordpress, but the Animate CC files are copied to a sub directory on my website so they can play freely without having to be part of the wordpress application. I published my Animate files without any issues and copied over all the published files: the html file, js file and images to the sub directory I created on the server. Everything played fine from April 2017 until now. Then, last week, I made some updates to the Wordpress site as well as updating my version of php on my hosting server to 7.0.After making these updates, the Animate CC html file no longer loads. Below is an example of one of the pages that won't load. When I go to the link, only a blank screen appears.https://www.getinthejar.com/CE-Banner-Ads/160x600/160x600bannerUnderdogFinal.html Any thoughts as to wh

I created a website with Dreamweaver 20 years ago with many hyperlinks between multiple pages (say about 20 distinct pages). The hyperlinks were all working without the .htm extension in the hyperlink code although all the webpage filenames have the extension. All of a sudden (without changing the hyperlink paths or source filenames) none of the links will work without including the .htm extension to the hyperlinks. I have recently modified the home page using latest Dreamweaver including updating META DATA. Otherwise no changes have been made. Can anyone help explain how the hyperlinks would all of a sudden stop working? Thanks!

What's the latest on how naughty (or not) it is to use empty <a> tags?I like using <a> for almost everything cosmetically interactive; keeping all my formatting is in the CSS. And the visual is often a background image. As such, my HTML has various instances that look like <a class="name"></a> with nothing else, not even the usual space (or nbsp) we used to have to put to make it work.Is this bad practice in 2019, or is it relatively safe to use empty <a> tags nowadays?(I just find the code looks better without it if it doesn't need it.)

I've created a page using bootstrap and started a new css file so I could customize it. Everything was going fine and I wanted to see what my page was looking like so I clicked the icon to view my page but then when I went back to editing, I could no longer access the CSS selector. It's grayed out.I've highlighted the section under source code that I want to add style to and I'm in Live view but since the selector is grayed out, it doesn't see the css file I started. I don't know what to try to get my editing ability back.

When I open one of my older files where JavaScript was used, <script LANGUAGE="Javascript"> has been changed to <replace LANGUAGE="Javareplace"> and everywhere where it once said <script> it now says <replace>. I don't know why this is happening and I don't know what to do with it. Change it back or leave it as changed.I am using CC (v 18.2) .

I have been using Dreamweaver for a long time.  I suddenly am unable to select columns to adjust the with or height.  I have 2 tables on the same page.  The first one allows me to select and adjust but not the second.  I can select and change content of the cells in both.  Is there something I selected that locked up the ability to adjust these columns?Thanks,JP

I wrote my code in CSS for a website, and when I copy and paste it into Dreamweaver (I had been working on it in a different platform) the design that showed how I wanted in the first platform became distorted in Dreamweaver. I had created a top navigation bar with buttons, some of which had hover drop-down menus, but in Dreamweaver, the buttons are misplaced and the hover drop-down menus do not appear. I was wondering if this is a common problem and/or is there a way to fix/see what I did wrong. Thanks!

I've been uploading to one of my clients sites hosted by WPEngine with no problem for some time. Recently, WPEngine did a host key change. So I removed my key in Terminal (I'm on Mac) and I can SFTP using Cyberduck but not Dreamweaver anymore. Instead, I get the following prompt:Failed to Read the contents of XML Resource:IDD_SSH_KEY_CHANGE_DIALOGContacted WPEngine support and they said it's Dreamweaver's fault (of course) and to use Filezilla or Cyberduck instead. I prefer Dreamweaver. So I want to keep using that but how do I eliminate this error?{Thread renamed by moderator}

I use a Windows computer and after designing my site and uploading it to my remote server, it looks fine on my Windows computer and my Windows tablet but I just discovered that the page doesn't show correctly if you view it on an Apple product or an Android device.I hope it's ok to put a link to my site so you can see what I've tried to create. The problem people are experiencing on an Apple product or Android device is the text on the bottom of the page doesn't appear inside my bordered design and overlaps lines of text.I am not very experienced with Dreamweaver so I don't know if there's a way to make some change so my site can be seen correctly or do I need to start over again and design it without borders around my page context?

Hello:I've upgraded my Mac OS to Mojave. After launching DW CC, I attempted to activate one of my DW pages but got this message:  "Safari can't connect to the server "localhost". Apple advises me that the "localhost app that I use — XAMPP (5.631-0) — is not a 64-bit version that Mojave will soon require.I Google-searched "XAMPP 64-bit version for Mojave" and found six versions available. [I planned to attach a screenshot of those versions but I no longer see an option to do that. Is there another way to add screenshots to Adobe forums? Hope so.]I'll now type the list of versions:7.1.28 / PHP 7.1.28 @ 144 Mb7.2.17 / PHP 7.2.17 @ 145 Mb7.3.4 / PHP 7.3.4 @ 145 Mb7.1.28 / PHP 7.1.28 @ 305 Mb7.2.17 / / PHP 7.2.17 @ 306 Mb7.3.4 / PHP 7.3.4 @ 311 MbOn what bases do I determine which XAMPP version to choose?Thanks, in advance.

I know my software is old, but it's been my loyal friend for over 10 years.  Most problems I've been able to solve, however I've been sent a file that was created in Adestra then exported.  When I try opening the file in my Dreamweaver the software 'freezes' and I need to force it to close.Apparently Adestra have introduced some new templates and I suspect this is the issue.  However, if anyone is able to guide me through successfully opening these files that would be amazing!Thanks!

I cannot get the extract panel to load in Dreamweaver CC on my Mac.  The tutorial will load, but I can never actually use this feature.

Hello,In DW cc, the template seems to have put some restriction on creating vertical jQuery UI tabs.I am trying to create a vertical navigation menu in a web page which was from a website template in Dreamweaver CC. In the EditRegion, I tried inserting jQuery UI tabs, and then in properties switching orientation from horizontal to vertical to create a set of vertical tabs. That did not work. I was getting the message "Making this change would require changing code that is locked by a template or a translator. The change will be discarded". Note that if I create an new html file directly, not generated from a template (dwt), DW would allow vertical jQuery UI tabs.I was wondering if anyone knows a solution to this issue, or may suggest a different way to make a vertical navigation menu. In older DW I used spry which worked well to create a vertical menu, but unfortunately spry is not available in the DW cc any more.Thank you,DZ
