Herein lies another problem with your outdated curriculum. As of January 2017, Adobe officially stopped selling CS6 to anyone. Reason? It's not supported by the very latest operating systems & it will never be updated again. It's legacy software that has reached its sell-by date. If I were in your shoes, I'd drop this class and find a better one. Nancy

Probably something got goofed up after an operating system update. Which OS do you have?

Nancy OShea · ‎Jan 30, 2017

A) If you go the self-hosted route, you need fonts in various file types to support all the different browsers. Also read your font licenses very carefully. Some fonts are licensed for print / image use only; not for web. See link below for details. Custom Web Fonts - http://alt-web.com/ B) You're probably not doing it right. See link above. C) Too many font options slows page load. Nancy

Creative Suite is not supported on Sierra. The installers do not work as expected. For Terminal workarounds, see link below. Installing Creative Suite on macOS 10.12 (Sierra)

I see. You've posted in the non-tech supported Lounge. Note to Moderator: This question should be moved to the Acrobat forum.

Use File > Export As and reduce quality slider to get the file size down for web. I use JPEG for most web images because it's smaller than PNG. I only use PNG when I need transparency like for icons. Or you could use Legacy Save for Web which provides a 4-up screen for comparison of quality and file size. You want the smallest file size with the least destructive quality for the web.

Which software are you using to create this menu?

Keep in mind that when you upload stuff to social sharing sites, they are apt to step on quality if for no other reason than to conserve resources on their servers (bandwidth, speed, etc...). Since you cannot control this, you have to just live with it. What method are you using to save the JPG file? File > Export As or Legacy Save for Web?

I don't see a whole lot of difference between the 2 images. Maybe because I'm on Win10 and using Firefox. Which OS and browser are you using? Believe it or not that can make a big difference. Web images typically look darker on Mac browsers. Nancy

Malignant Narcissism is plainly obvious to me. But I used to work in mental health and read the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) from cover to cover. If you don't believe the Johns Hopkins psychotherapist, you can read the clinical description of Narcissistic Personality Disorder yourself from the latest DSM-5. I think you'll agree that Trump fits the description like a glove. Narcissistic Personality Disorder DSM-5 301.81 (F60.81) - Therapedia Nancy

Z-index only works on positioned elements. To keep my sanity, I avoid positioning in primary layouts if at all possible. It really doesn't work well in responsive layouts. For what you want, I think it's wise to begin with a grid and figure out on paper where you plan to put your elements. Hence this forum's banner image of a chalkboard with scribbled layout ideas. That's how I approach all new projects. Alternatively, you could combine logo with banner in Photoshop to make one image. Whichever works best.

You'll need to wipe off all LavaSoft related DLL files too. In Windows File Manager> View settings, be sure select Hidden Items and File Name Extensions so you can see them. Nancy

Wufoo is a 3rd party form service. Wufoo Online Form Builder It's popular with people who have no knowledge of or support for server-side scripts. But if you plan to do more serious web development, you need a server that supports scripts. Good web hosting is very affordable these days. There's no reason to settle for less. Nancy

Position absolute is pure poison in responsive layouts. Please don't us it for this. Responsive foreground images can be achieved with the Bootstrap img-responsive class. Background-size:cover does 2 things. It makes the BG image fill the screen and re-scales to viewport. This is appropriate to use when you need to overlay content on your BG image. Otherwise, use a foreground image. In the following Parallax template tutorial, I have used background-size cover on 4 parallax regions. No positioning required.

Are you working a defined local site folder? That's a critical 1st step when working with projects in DW. Site > New Site or Manage Sites. Nancy

This is the Behance icon I use on my web site. I got mine from Font Awesome fa-behance: Font Awesome Icons Instagram's icon is very different fa-instagram: Font Awesome Icons And this is what shows on my Adobe Portfolio. Nancy

Nancy OShea · ‎Jan 29, 2017

I can't reproduce it. I don't see any icon to which you refer in Live view, Design view, Real-Time Preview or when previewed in browser with right-click. Possibly a glitch on your side. Check your code for errors with Window > Results > Validation. Nancy

See my screenshots below for setting up a local testing server. I'm using wamp server and the default web folder is www. In your case, it's xampp and htdocs. Servers: Click the plus sign. Basic Tab: Connect using local/Network (not FTP). Web URL is your localhost *geek speak for your testing server*. Advanced Tab: Server Model is PHP/MySQL Final screen: Nancy

#4 Spell check window defaults to the left side. My custom Workspace is set up with code on the left and design on the right. So it's no hardship for me. I know of no way to change the default. Feel free to submit a feature request. Nancy

#3 I can't reproduce this. Spell check with contractions works fine for me in CC 2017.1 on Win10. Nancy

Nancy OShea · ‎Jan 28, 2017

Sounds like a focus issue. Are your panels all docked to the application frame and is DW maximized to fill your screen. Nancy

Nancy OShea · ‎Jan 28, 2017

#2 Type &n and code hints window should pop-up. Alternatively, you could create a code Snippet and target key. Thereafter, type your target key followed by TAB. Nancy

What's the reason for a background image there? Why not insert a foreground image into your HTML? And don't use inline CSS styles in web pages if you can possibly avoid it. Nancy

Nancy OShea · ‎Jan 28, 2017

It's very simple. PHP is nothing to be afraid of. Give it a try on a few test pages. Upload to server to test results. Post back to the DW forum if you have any questions. Nancy

Nancy OShea · ‎Jan 28, 2017

You mean something like this? CODE: <!doctype html> <html> <head> <title>Centered Page</title> <meta charset="utf-8"> <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge"> <style> img { display: block; vertical-align: baseline; max-width: 100%; } body { width: 90%; margin: 0 auto; background: url(http://lorempixel.com/900/500/abstract/4) no-repeat center center fixed; background-size: cover; } header { width: 70%; margin: 0 auto; } </style> </head> <body> <header> <img src="http://dummyimage.com/900x700" alt="header banner"> </header> </body> </html>

Not meaning to avoid your question but why don't you switch to server-side includes? Unlike LIs, SSIs can be inserted anywhere, they do not require you to update & re-publish your entire site and they are not proprietary to DW. With SSIs, you edit one file & upload it to your server. Done. Your server takes care of the rest. Even on small sites, this is a huge time saver. Once you start using Server-Side Includes, you'll never ever want to use Library Items again.

Add CSS padding-top to your body selector to provide ample space between navigation and content. Somewhere between 50 - 70px. Nancy
