Adding Extension Tab to Insert Bar

Finally, after much trial and error, I' ve created an
extension to insert some code I needed that prompts for input...
Now, however, in following a tutorial I found on dmxzone.com
that shows how to create an .mxi file to package the extension, I'm
encountering some problems.
First, I had tried modifying the insertbar.xml file, which
worked, but not exactly as I wanted it to...and, I needed to
package it to give to someone else, so I undid the modifications to
the insertbar.xml file, but my modifications refuse to go away, and
still appear on the insert bar...How can I get that to go away.
Secondly, I created the .mxi file I needed, but I can't seem
to get it to appear as I want...what I want is to have the tab
labeled "GFSO", because I want to have multiple extensions that
pertain to that organization. Then, I want the tooltip to say
"Insert MP3 Player Code"...
My question, I guess, is...how do I make that happen...??? I
can get either/or to happen, but not both. What in the .mxi file
controls this??? I've searched everywhere, but can't find any
resource that fully addresses this question.
My .mxi file reads:
<macromedia-extension id=""
name="GFSO"
version="1"
type="object">

<products>
<product name="Dreamweaver" version="8" primary="true"
/>
</products>

<author name="Maynard Jarvis" />

<description>
<![CDATA[This extension will add the code necessary for
the MP3 player to play clips.]]>
</description>
<ui-access>
<![CDATA[Click on Insert MP3 Player Code icon from the
GFSO Objects window]]>
</ui-access>
<files>
<file name="MP3 Player.html"
destination="$dreamweaver/configuration/objects/GFSO" />
<file name="MP3 Player.js"
destination="$dreamweaver/configuration/objects/GFSO" />
<file name="MP3 Player.gif"
destination="$dreamweaver/configuration/objects/GFSO" />
</files>

</macromedia-extension>
which gives me a tab that reads "MP3 Player"...how can I make
this say "GFSO"??? I thought that by having the .html and .js code
in it's own directory would do that, but even though I specify that
install directory, it isn't created and I'm not sure where the
files for the extension end up.
Thanks in advance!

I haven't the solution for the second problem, but for the
first, maybe it's a multi-user configuration pb.
If you have modified the Program Files/Macromedia/DW/ folder,
there are chances that DW copied the insertbar.xml fil to your
local user folder (Document & Settings/User Name/ ....).
Another thing could be a cache folder DW's using but I can't
remember where it is.
hope it helps

Reenable the PHP tab in insert bar

I was exploring the windows last night and found a few quite
interesting features that way however, I accidentally disabled one
which I often use : the PHP tab in insert bar. I could customise
the favorite tab to have all the PHP elements in it but I'd like to
have it the way it was.
I already did a search about it and found nothing so please
redirect me if I missed the answer, if not I'd appreciate any tip.
Thanks,
DynV

Are you working on a PHP page at the time?

Directory Editor adding object classes to the Extensions Tab

I'm using Sun's Directory Editor web based product. Under the extensions tab lists the object classes you can add (obviously there are only a select few there). I would like to have shadowAccount available there. I have went through the installation and configuration guide but can't find how to do this. Just wondering if anyone knows how to add custom object classes to this tab.

http://blogs.sun.com/kevlar/entry/directory_editor_tips
Disclaimer: that's my feedback under the blog post. I'm trying to figure out how to use DE to maintain an extended schema that includes migrated NIS maps. The overall goal is to migrate from NIS to LDAP as a naming service AND create realistically easy method for day-to-day administration (constantly using the console is out of the question). I believe DE might provide a solution, if custom forms can be figured out. It's been very slow going.
Does anyone else have examples of modifying Directory Editor forms? Any help would be appreciated.

Insert Bar Problem

Using DW 8.0.2 on MAC OSX 10.5.4.
Installed "Insert a QuickTime Movie" extension from Adobe
Exchange using Ext. Manager. (extension worked)
Following that my Insert Bar is now labeled 'Common' and has
only the Common tab with only the first 4-5 icons. Same scenario in
the 'menu' configuration. Attempts to customize show only the
common objects available.
Also can no longer insert layer from main menu.
Have reinstalled DW 8 and updated to 8.0.2 with no change.
How can I fix this???

I'm pretty sure this is part of the preferences file. If you
go to your Library->Preferences and search for the .plist file
which has the name Dreamweaver in it you can drag that to the trash
and then restart DW. It will take longer to restart after doing
this because OSX will need to create a new preferences file, but
this should solve problems with the menus.

How to fix privacy and extensions tab that are blank (using Safari 5.1.7)

I have looked at the help provided in this forum for fixing the privacy and extension tabs that happen to now be blank. However, being new to a mac, I was not able to follow those instructions. If anyone can give me some help/guidance, I would really appreciate it. Also, what exactly does the privacy tab do? If it has been blank for a while and I have been to websites and used my credit card information was it secure? Thanks so much in advance for any/all help. TAD

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

None of the commands (eg attachments) on the insert bar for outgoing emails is working - what can I do? Thanks, Drummond

I suddenly cannot insert attachments to outgoing emails in Windows Live Hotmail. If I click on attachments or any other tool in the insert bar, nothing happens. My wife's hot mail account on the same computer, using the same version of Firefox, works fine; my account works fine when I use Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. How can I fix this?
Thanks for any help.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions. 
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Customizing insert bar in dreamweaver 8

I recently started using dreamweaver 8 RELUCTANTLY instead of
homesite 5.5 since it seems to have been abandoned. There are some
great improvements like the properties tab and such. However,
having to edit a .xml file, create your own .js and .html files to
add or move custom items to the insert bar is a major step
backward. In homesite all you have to do is right click on the
insert bar and fill out a form or wizard type app. It used to be so
easy but now it is a major PAIN
Please excuse me for venting but I just hope Adobe
can realize that there are some great features in homesite that
seem to have been completely abandoned in dreamweaver. I know they
are completely different apps with a different history but If they
plan (or seem) to have replaced homesite with dreamweaver's coding
environment, I hope they will take another look back and see what
they are missing. Many of us have been coding cold fusion since
it's creation and really loved cold fusion studio/homesite.
Dreamweaver just doesn't cut the mustard compared to those older
apps. Here's hoping they can continue to enhance dreamweaver in the
future.
Anyway, thanks for listening.

That's not something we can tell you how to do step-by-step,
because there
are too many possibilities, and it's not something you can do
with
Dreamweaver alone.
Basically, you build and style the form using Dreamweaver,
and then you use
a script of some kind to send the form. That might be a CGI
script that your
host server provides for free, with instructions (ask your
host), or it
might be one that you choose yourself and install. There are
a number of
types - CGI/Perl, ASP, ColdFusion, PHP, ASP.NET. The one you
choose would
depend upon what the host server supports. You'll need to
contact them and
ask.

Missing Distance Extension Tab

ONS15454 Multishelf running REL 7.22. There are two MXP_MR_10DME cards in shelf one and two MXP_MR_10DME cards in shelf two. On the MXP_MR_10DME cards in shelf one there is a Distance Extension Tab when you select Provisioning in Card View but on the MXP_MR_10DME cards in shelf two the Distance Extension Tab is missing. Exactly the same on another node, Distance Extension present on shelf one but missing on shelf two. As far as I can tell all the cards have the same HW Part # etc.

Ok...
Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.

Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and the website won't open.

Sometimes when I open a link in a new tab and then switch to the tab, the address bar clears and I'll have to re open the tab and hope that doesn't happen again. Sometimes this happens again and again. Most of the times if I just open the link in a new tab and don't switch to it, this won't happen. But as I switch too the tab, the text would disappear and the link wouldn't open.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in [[Safe mode]]:
* Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
* Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

Extending the Insert Bar: where do the labels come from?

Very much a beginner with Extensions; just a simple question about items on the Insert Bar.
When I look at the content of 'insertbar.xml', the entry for 'Heading 1' is this:
<button MMString:label="insertbar/textH1" MMString:name="insertbar/textH1" file="Text\H1.htm" id="DW_Text_H1" image="Text\H1.gif" />
So my question is, how does the button on the Insert Bar read 'Heading 1'? That text appears nowhere in the 'insertbar.xml' document, nor is it in 'menus.xml', so it must come from somewhere else.
I haven't found any reference to this in 'Extending Dreamweaver', and a content search of the Configurations folder yields zero as well. Any help is appreciated.

Strings specified using MMString: have been separated out so they can be localized for different languages. They are compiled and stored in: [install-dir]/[lang]/Resources/strings.zbin (where lang is something like "en_US").
If your extension is just for 1 language or is non-localizable text, then change "MMString:label" to "label" and put the text directly in insertbar.xml.
If you want to make your extension for multiple languages, then store the strings in the [install-dir]/[lang]/Configuration/Strings folder and reference them by id. Take a look at the XML files in that fodler as an example.
HTH,
Randy

Add Spry Widgets to Dreamweaver Insert Bar Spry Group

Hi. I'm trying to work out how to add Spry widgets to
Dreamweaver's
Insert bar.
I downloaded Spry for Ajax 1.6 and copied the the contents of
the
SpryTooltip Folder.
I did a search in Adobe Dreamweaver's program folder for
everything Spry.
I pasted SpryTooltip everywhere in Dreamweaver that Spry
references
exist. I even created a .png icon for Spry ToolTip in:
Adobe Dreamweaver CS3\configuration\Objects\Spry
I opened Dreamweaver and there it was in my insert bar! My
icon for Spry
tooltip!
I tried to insert it into a blank age and got the message:
"Trigger
event missing" or something like that.
I'm sure there must be a way to add these new widgets to
Dreamweaver's
insert bar in the Spry group.
Can someone please tell me how to do it. Starting with
SpryTooltip.
and...
I might as well go ahead and ask how to add new Spry Effects
to
Dreamweaver's behavior panel as well. Let's say "Pulsate" for
an example.
PS. I've already asked this at the Spry Forum. No one has
replied yet.
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=72&catid=602&threadid =1312010&enterthread=y
Thank you!
Dameon

hey,
I am a newbie to Spry too. I asked a similar question in the
Spry Forum.
It seems that you can not get the widgets into the Insert Bar
or on theBehavioral Panel.
To get the widgets to work, you only have the option to link
to them from your spry folder.
Spry is exciting, yet, it is still a new method, so the
WYSIWYG interface thing is still developing. Unfortunaly, if you
want to use Spry, you need to get dirty with the code stufff.
So, I too, use Spry sparingly.....
Hope that helps.

Adding a Tab in a PM notification

Experts,
How do I go about adding a tab in a PM notification? I have a requirement of adding a 'causes' tab for capturing of the object part, damage etc. and also for entering user defined codes for capturing an RCA in SAP. see screen below

Hi Mutale,
I see some confusion in concept about Catalog Code Tabs.
What you referred in the initial post are the Sub-Tabs inside a Catalogs & codes Main tab of a Notification.
What you have referred to in the later post are the Main Tabs of Catalogs. like this
The Difference
The Sub-Tabs of Catalogs will display information corresponding to the line item of the first tab (Object part & Damage Tab). Here you are not free to enter a Cause, Task or Activity without filling an Item line (Object part or Damage)
The Main Tabs are independent Catalog Tabs. You can maintain the line items here independently without any conditions as above.
Lastly:
I hope your initial query has been cleared by looking into the picture, that you can have a separate Causes Tab.
In configuration, you need to have tab 10/Tab16 for this.
Best of Luck
