Thanks. The issue is I donot know how to edit a webpage with slices and rollovers anymore. By @adampicz You dont need to. Just open the page in code view in Dreamweaver, find <A HREF="#" on about line 165 and change the link to where ever your 'archives' html is located. I assumed it was in a folder named 'archives' - all the other links follow a similar pattern 'folder_name/file_name.html - but this one does not follow that pattern as far as I can tell: <A HREF="archives/archives.html" I don't know where you have stored it but point the link to it by changing the path inbetween the " " But take the advice - rebuild your website 'as soon as is possible' to use up-to-date workflows which are compatible with todays viewing devices.

You most likely wont understand BUT the Dreamweaver server behaviours are outdated and were removed from recent versions of Dreamweaver (or at least 'hidden' by default). The server behaviours won't work on any server running php 7+ I think, although I can't exactly remember........it's that long ago. So the question would be what version of php are you trying to get the Dreamweaver server behaviours to run on? The advice would be forget it and move on because you're using a workflow which is years behind the time. You should now either manually code your connection and queries to your database or buy into a third party extension - Adobe never updated there's to be compatible with newer versions of php as they used the old sql connection/query protocol and we now have advanced to the sqli 'improved' protocol.

Specificallly on the https://collisionmachine.com/index.html# page, the archive linnk (which is the first building rollover) is broken. Any suggestions appreciated. By @adampicz It's not broken its just that the link is pointing to the page which is already open, the index.html , which is the default page. Line 165: <A HREF="#" Change the link to the page where you want the user to be taken (presumably the 'archives' page) and it will most likely work. I wont go there in reference to code being a bit of shambles and long outdated.

Please update PHP support in DW for PHP 8+. Can't be that difficult guys. By @Hugo33766141qkai Highly unlikely, Jon explained in his post the reason why. You might want to consider the phpstorm editor by jet brains if you are developing using php, it's the best in its field, in my opinion, for supporting that language.

and why not the use W3 schools for that purpose ;). By @B i r n o u Because it doesn't always necessarily show the most up to date workflows in my opinion......so by all means if you want to be a few paces behind it does the job. The trick is knowledge and that takes years, then you can observe and tweak code examples to a more advanced level or use something that's more appropriate for what's required, which in this case since the OP hasn't come back, we don't know. I guess the old guys in the industry might still use get element by id but l much prefer the querySelector method myself. It might not even be a good idea to suggest using innerHTML if the data is not something that you are controlling.......since there isnt even any html in the string of text being inserted use innerText..................it leaves a lot to be questioned.

The bigger question is I don't know why you are using the very verbose 'class constructor' method when you could just use a simple function( see below code example). By @osgood_ it all depends on how @Sicarii Origin wants to inherit a secondary class, or benefit from the instantiation phase ? By @B i r n o u Without ALL the information it's not conclusive, I'd have to know what the end game is. The only thing I can assume is that the OP doesn't exactly know what they are doing because I cant accept that any advanced developer would need to copy code from the W3 schools website (which can sometimes be a little behind the curve) not using template literals is an example, is my personal opinion. Mind you the last time you pasted some javascript you were still using 'var' (tongue in cheek :))

The bigger question is I don't know why you are using the very verbose 'class constructor' method when you could just use a simple function( see below code example). Since a couple of years back if you use 'React.js' practically every developer using that js framework dropped using the class constructor workflow and opted to use functions when they were introduced, cleaner and simpler in my view. <script> const carAge = (year) => { const date = new Date(); return date.getFullYear() - year } document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = `My car is ${carAge(2014)} years old`; </script> No on-point developer uses - + "blah" + "blah" anymore. Template literals ` ` made it far easier to concatenate long strings which include javascript variables/functions. Just as an aside note I doubt DW will support the new arrow function => (in terms of valid syntax code). If not you can just use the old way of writing a function (which in my opinion is somewhat clearer): <script> function carAge(year) { const date = new Date(); return date.getFullYear() - year } document.getElementById("demo").innerHTML = `My car is ${carAge(2014)} years old`; </script>

Is Dreamweaver a dead duck?
It's been festering on the shelf for a while now, covered in a lot of dust, which probably will only keep accumulating until its choked to death. Realistically its seen its best days, there has been no positive announcements from Adobe which suggests that is likely to change.
Any good applications to move over to?
What in DW is important enough to you that keeps you attached to it? .

I can't blame clients for their ignorance. It's not THEIR job to know this stuff. By @Nancy OShea If its being produced at a rock bottom price compared to other quotes they've been presented with they should know something is not quite right, I think. Of course if they are just being ripped off, that's unfortunate. Because web-development is not regulated it means there are a lot of bad apples in the basket - producing anything just to make a living whilst deceiving those with little knowledge i.e., the client.

I can't see myself how image maps can be of any positive use in this case. From the graphic posted it looks like most of the information is text based, so use text.......hummm......its just common sense......... but l guess if you haven't been there and done it.......That's what experienced developers are paid for folks, hopefully a few ignorant cheapo, cheapo, clients read this post too!

After twenty years of frustration with Dremweaver it looks like it's time for me to find an alternative. • I am leaning towards a code editor called Nova By @KevinB9 I don't really know what the frustrtaion has been? Dreamweaver was a decent enough editor for a long, long time. It's only in the last 5 years or so that it's dragged it's feet and been left on the shelf to fade away. Nova is a great editor by Panic who make stuff specifically for the Mac so it has a nice native environmental 'feel good factor' and is currently being actively developed. My only concern with Mac centric software is that some producers only support a couple of Mac OS versions back so the programs becomes outdated too fast for my liking if you're not prepared to upgrade your OS regularly. I don't care to upgrade my OS once I have my set up working because something else might not work and you're then in an endless cycle of upgrading. I prefer using software that doesn't totally rely on the Mac OS to work, something like VS Code or Sublime Text, both are free editors or Web Storm/Php Storm by Jet Brains which are my go to editors these days, Codelobster is another editor you could try. All the editors metioned rely on you knowing some coding to get the job successfully done. If you're looking for a more visual approach then you need to look for something else.

Yes, so I can assume the entire section content will not be read by screen reader if the role of presentation is applied to it, even though I was aiming to target the one class within that section called 'bgPattern'. So, I am at a loss as to how to only apply the role to cover a decorative background pattern. By @r_tist I don't see the issue here, screen readers won't even know a background image set in css exists- that's exactly why you should not use them to convey any important information you wish users, who need assisted technology, to access - so there is zero need for you to do anything if this background image is purely for decorative purposes and conveys no important information for the people who use assisted technology.

As far as l know anything in the 'background' doesn't require accessibility applied to it as its purely decorative eye candy, only 'real' content which can be read by screen readers require some accessibility options applied. I'm no accessibility expert but it sounds reasonable.

There is no image where the link says it is: https://www.saevfors.se/Images/Foto_Video/Bamboo_Asphalt_Roof.jpg 404 Not Found The resource requested could not be found on this server! Check: Have you uploaded the image to the correct location/folder? It says its in the 'Foto_Video' folder in the 'Images' folder. Most of your other images are just sitting in the 'Images' folder so not sure why this one in particular needs to go in the 'Foto_Video' folder..............anyway its not there. Check You're using a mix of upper/lower case for folder/image names, that's not a very good idea as its easy to leave something in lower case when in should be in caps, the resource wont be found by the server as its case sensitive. Personally I would advise you only use lowercase for folder and image names....so check your image/folder naming convention is correct.

can the page with the form itself be an html and the form action then a php form script? By @LyaSmidtsx Yes, if I remember correctly. It's a long time since I used .html file when using a php workflow. If you're using php as part of your workflow then all of your pages may as well be .php even if there is no php in them. The form script obviously needs to go into a .php page where you would point your forms action attribute to, you cant have the php script in the .html page If you are going to use php to process the form then you have 2 options, use the default php mail function IF your server will allow or you may have to use PHPMailer library or similar as some hosts deem it more secure in the hands of amatuer coders and deactivate the default php mail function.

Does anyone really care? I haven't come across too many websites that don't load fast enough for me assuming the web developer has at least been somewhat practical and sensible. Even websites full of shiite with numerous calls to css and javascript files, inline styling such as used by WP and others load without any noticeable dragging and the UK isn't necessary noted for super fast broadband speeds yet. Probably too much time and effort wasted for little return in my opinion, just use common sense and you should be good, without worrying to much about getting a few merit marks, which really make very little difference Having said that l don't know about the flying bird on each page load that's a bit annoying, perhaps that's masking many a sin.........humm

I didn't really know Ray being a coder myself BUT it's always very sad news to hear of someone that has passed over, particularly in the light of Rays involvement in producing extentions for Dreamweaver in it's golden era. Sadly that's over now and we have lost 2 great DW evangelists along the way - Ray and Al. May they both be remembered by those who have bought into their products and by those of us that have been aquainted through this forum and our involvement in web-development.

OK I have an easier solution for you - your attempt to hide and show the relative images set me thinking. When the 'print' button is clicked the script will go through each checkbox and see if its checked - if it is the 'product' div which houses each image remains visible, otherwise its not displayed, leaving you with only those that have been selected to print. If you can get your array back from your server in json format and into an array and loop through that adapting the code below I think youre good to go. At the moment this code example is still manually producing the array of images but its easy enough to adapt. I cant get the images from your API end point as there is a cross-browser-origin (CORS) error other wise I would just use the fetch API to bring them into the code directly. Test it out by creating a 'toy_images' folder and putting a few of your images in there then update the 'selectedToys' array so the images are the same as in your test 'toy_images' folder <!DOCTYPE html>

OK I've thought about this and unless one of my learned colleagues has a brighter solution I think you ARE going to have to push the selected images to an array to 'isolate' them from the rest of the images on the page AND as has been previously suggested by Ben, store that array to local browser storage. I say this because IF the array of images is output on the same page as the images with the checkboxes in an overlay window the printer will attempt to print not only the images on the overlay but all the images with the checkboxes too, at least on my printer it indicates in the preview that is want it wants to do. Once you have the selected images in an array stored to local storage you can create a dedicated 'print' page which will only output the images that need to be printed. Also you really need to consider the situation whereby a user unckecks the checkboxes - you need then to remove that image from the array. It gets complicated and even more complicated as you dive deeper and is not really something that can be done successfully if you dont know enough code OR how a bit of software like Wapppler really works.
