Yep. You just need to make sure you turn on hidden files so you can get to the necessary folder.

Jon Fritz · ‎Sep 17, 2013

In that case, if it happens again, try deleting the program cache first, rather than a reinstall: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811 That will catch a lot of goofy "just started happening" behaviors and clear them up. Maybe this is one of them.

Just checking. What you describe sounds very similar to what you'd expect if it was set to Remote Server. What do your links to your external files look like in the <head> of your page? Are they absolute paths to your server, or relative to the page?

Jon Fritz · ‎Sep 17, 2013

Are you sure you're looking at your local files? In the Files window, is the right hand drop down menu set to Local View?

While the visual cue is gone (and that's a bit of a bummer), you definitely don't have to look for an id in the source code. Just click on the element or text you want to link to and the id will appear in the properties window.

And there's my issue... I, how should I say this delicately, I royally suck at PHP, beyond setting up includes and a few other "we train monkeys to do this at our company because it's cheaper than paying a programmer" php functions, I get lost. I was hoping someone could shed some light on the error because it had worked in the past for a time (using what Osgood had posted above) and now gives the error I mention.

This worked great for me, now for some reason I see the page as expected when logged in, but I get this line of text at the top...

Generally, in javascript, each statement is closed with a semi-colon but there are times where it's not necessary to use one and the script will still work. I'm guessing DWCC was programmed without the exceptions.

Jon Fritz · ‎Aug 16, 2013

Hmm, nothing is highlighting for me, but I'm on an older version of DW, maybe it's less picky. What happens if you ad a semi-colon right before the </script> tag in this line... <script>var __adobewebfontsappname__="dreamweaver"</script>

Jon Fritz · ‎Aug 16, 2013

You have quite a few errors in that code. Run the validator here: http://validator.w3.org/ and clean it up. Your syntax error should clear up once the code errors are taken care of. Nevermind, I had a copy/paste issue. Where is the error displaying (line number)?

Sometimes what we want and reality are mutually exclusive. This is one of those times. There is no way to speed up Google's indexing by any appreciable amount.

If you wanted a description and keyword meta tag, you first need to create the correct format... <meta name="description" content="this is where the description goes" /> <meta name="keywords" content="keywords go here" /> (ignored by most browsers) You also MUST reduce the size of that description. Generally speaking one or two sentences is it and formatting is also ignored (all the line breaks). That massive block is being ignored first, because it's not correctly formatted, second even if it was, it is going to present to the search engines as a cramming situation and be ignored. Your meta tags are not a major factor in how your site will be found. In fact, the keywords meta tag (which it appears you have combined with your description tag) is completely ignored by the major search engines.

You may benefit from creating a Google Webmaster Account, but there is no guarantee it will speed up the process. Indexing can take up to a month in some situations.

You can get rid of scroll bars with css. Set the overflow for the iframe to hidden, like this... iframe { overflow:hidden; } That will remove scroll bars and cut off anything that scrolls in the iframe content. To make the actual content schrink, you could use a css transform. In this page, I used the fox news website and made the width of the iframe large enough to not need a scroll bar, then shrank the iframe using a transform in the css. There's some fiddling around you need to do to get the positioning right (since it still initially takes up the original size specified in the css) but it can be done. This won't work in old browsers that can't read css transforms though... <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Untitled Document</title> <style type="text/css"> body { margin:0; } iframe { -ms-transform:scale(0.60); -moz-transform:scale(0.60); -o-transform: scale(0.60); -webkit-transform: scale(0.60); transform:scale(0.60); border:1px solid black; } iframe { position:relative; top:-240px; left:-220px; height:1200px; width:1100px; } #wrapper { overflow:hidden; border:1px solid orange; height:722px; width:662px; } </style> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <iframe src="http://www.foxnews.com"></iframe> </div> </body> </html>

The second link is using a <td> tag id and that <td> is aligned to the top of the page as expected, however, you use the id more than once, which is not valid. HTML id's can only be used once in a page, you have it both on a <td> where the link seems to be taking you and on a <p> tag later in the html. ID's must be unique (the same went for named anchors). EDIT: There are quite a few other html errors in your pages. You may want to run your site through the validator at http://validator.w3.org and clear any problems out. HTML errors can cause all kinds of display problems and funky, unexpected behaviors.

Jon Fritz · ‎Jul 23, 2013

You need to have "something" selected, either by clicking an image, highlighting some text or selecting an html element on your page. Sorry, I wasn't as clear as I could have been on that. Doing that will allow you to either see the id already there or add an id to the element or text. I'm not sure why it would create a set of <strong> tags when you select text and add an ID. It should be a set of <span> tags, if anything, when you select text and add an ID (many times it will select the <p> tag the text is in. Either way, it definitely doesn't need to be a <div> tag that is linked to with the ID method for anchors. Whatever you link to will end up being the first thing on the page when clicking the link, as long as there is enough room below it to allow for that. If you try to anchor something that is near the bottom of the page, and click the link, it will still be on the bottom unless you add enough space for the browser window to allow it to scroll that element to the top. Could you post a link to your page, maybe there is something specific in your code that is causing an issue?

Jon Fritz · ‎Jul 22, 2013

You're old pages should be fine for a very, very long time. You "could" run into issues using the old way under the HTML5 Doctype Declaration, but I'd be willing to bet all of the major browsers will still run them correctly.

Jon Fritz · ‎Jul 22, 2013

It really is very, very simple and doesn't require any css being added to your head section... 1. Click or highlight the item you want to set as an anchor. Check if it has and ID in the Properties window and add one if it doesn't. (for example: anchor_one) 2. Click or highlight the item you want to use as the link back to the anchor. Add the # symbol followed by the id from step one as the Link in the Properties window. (for example: #anchor_one) Done.

Jon Fritz · ‎Jul 22, 2013

Nope, you just add an ID to an element from the Properties Inspector, then link to the id. It's actually one less step than the old anchor button.

If you really want to see APDivs explode your design, go into Firefox and choose View > Zoom > Zoom Text Only then play around with Ctrl + and Ctrl -. Since you can't control what your viewer uses as their default font size, you can't control your designs when you use APDivs. Thankfully Adobe saw fit to remove them from DW. Up until recently, I would suspect about 10-15% of the problems brought to the forum were Absolute Positioning related in some manner.

Jon Fritz · ‎Jun 19, 2013

The reason it was removed is there is absolutely no reason for it anymore, it was dropped from html back in HTML4. Using an anchor tag in this manner is just not necessary. The "new" way is much more flexible and IIRC, takes one less step in Design View and ultimately creates leaner code (faster downloads, albeit only slightly). To make a link that goes to a specific spot in your page, you only need to know the html id of the element you want to link to. In Nancy's example, all you do from the Design View of DW is highlight the text/image you want to turn into a link and enter #foo as the link itself and you get the exact same affect as putting a Named Anchor in the beginning of the <div id="foo"> and then adding a link to it. If you want to add more "anchors" within a long single container (a list of Q&A for example), you can highlight any text/image in Design View and then in the Properties inspector, add an ID. That will create a set of <span> tags around the text/image with an html id that you can reference by simply adding #the_id_name to the Link field in the Properties inspector. So instead of making the page, then adding anchors, then linking to them, you can make the page and link to the ids of the elements on the page, any element, not just <a> tags.

You almost never have a reason to set height. Height should be determined by content and that is what your viewers are used to (vertical scrolling is normal). Horizontal scrolling, not so much. That can be a huge annoyance to a viewer. Generally speaking, unless you are going for a Responsive Design that changes size depending on a viewer's device (you can use the Fluid Grid Layout tool to help you create this in DW), you generally don't go any wider than about 900-950 pixels. It's not a "magic number" or anything, that's just a size that most desktops and tablets can handle without scrolling horizontally. Responsive Design using cascading style sheet Media Queries allows your site to change it's width (and really pretty much any part of its design) depending on the device the viewer is using to look at your site. There is a lot of info out there about Media Queries, it can seem daunting at first, but once you have the hang of it, media queries can make your site do some very interesting things.

Jon Fritz · ‎May 10, 2013

It's in the View menu as Ben shows above. You uncheck the Split Vertically option.

Jon Fritz · ‎May 10, 2013

There should be three buttons in your toolbar, Code, Split and Design. Split should give you what you're looking for, or do you mean the Split View is vertical frames instead of horizontal?

Jon Fritz · ‎Apr 25, 2013

You can do it without using a <div> if you use... background-image:url(yourimage.jpg); background-repeat:no-repeat; background-size:cover; In your css. The only problem with that is only CSS3 compliant browsers will see it as a full window image (oddly enough, IE 9 does see it). For one with more backwards compatibility, you'll need to use a javascript similar to the one available here... http://louisremi.github.io/jquery.backgroundSize.js/demo/

Jon Fritz · ‎Mar 20, 2013

Two things: If you used what you pasted above on your homepage... <link rel="icon" href="favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> <link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="favicon.ico" /> ...as written and with the favicon.ico in your images folder, it won't work. The links would have needed to be changed to reflect the fact that your .ico file was inside the images folder... <link rel="icon" href="images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" /> Secondly, placing the .ico file in a folder called "images" within your root folder means it is not "in your root folder" as I described above. Placing it on the same level as your index.html would be "in your root folder" for automatic detection by browsers with no links needed.

Jon Fritz · ‎Mar 19, 2013

Hmm, I don't know about your code. I've always used... <link rel="icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> <link rel="shortcut icon" type="image/x-icon" href="/favicon.ico" /> Also, make sure you've uploaded the .ico file to your server. If you put the favicon.ico file in your site's root directory, there shouldn't be any need for the link at all. Browsers should automatically pick it up. I know for myself the OCD can kick in pretty hard having an image file floating out with my index.html, but it's a perfectly legitimate way to do it.

You are amazing. I bow down to your ability to quibble over the meaning of a word while applying the wrong context to the sentence it was taken from. You are the master and I the student. Bandaid good sir, Bandaid.

Jon Fritz · ‎Jan 24, 2013

Wow, you still just don't understand what we were talking about. Raw code is already unformatted text in the context of what the OP and I were discussing at that moment in time. Stop thinking about raw code, pretend raw code doesn't exist because in this situation it wasn't an option. OK? No raw code. Now, moving on... I was specifically talking about text from the browser window, that was actively being formatted by html behind the scenes, losing that html formatting when the text, NOT THE CODE, was then pasted into a textarea. NO RAW CODE! I can sense the "but..." cropping up in your mind. Pasting something like "<p>this is the text<p>" into a textarea OBVIOUSLY won't lose the <p></p> "formatting" since it's already plain old text as far as the browser or a textarea care. Copying the actual words from the browser window, the "Discussions" link as I kept referring to, however WILL NOT come with the <a href="..."></a> around it when pasted into a textarea tag via a simple Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V. There are more steps that need to be taken to get to the code which IS NOT what the OP was looking for. THAT is the "formatting" I was specifically talking about being lost when pasting into a textarea and the OP understood that so we moved on. I do take offense to your condescending attitude toward me and I find it comical that you still seem to be taking what I said completely out of context, it seems intentional. It feels like you are mad at me because I gave you a generic adhesive bandage when you were asking for a Bandaid and you're trying to prove some point nobody but you cares about. Text, whether in the form of a sentence or a snippet of html source code will paste just fine in a textarea. There is no "formatting" to lose. Text actively being controlled by html, in this case an <a href></a> tag set, will lose that active html formatting when pasted into a textarea. If you still think I am mistaken, please, upload a page and share a link where I can copy and paste the information as the OP requests into a textarea and maintain the actual html formatting given to it by the browser. If you can't, please, stop replying to this thread.
