Dream weaver tables

Hi
I have made a really cool background in fireworks and set it
as the back drop in dreamweaver, i have managed to centre a table
over the background so the text fits nicley over the right place on
the background.
The problem is when the browser is not open fully the table
and the background shift like as if the table centres itself
depending on the size of the browser so it no longer fits over the
background and the text cannot be read. It only works when the
browser is fully maxamised.
Is there anyway i can rectify this so the table sticks to the
background image? or stays where i want it?
Thanks
Mark

Now resize your text in the browser. How cool is that?

Yes. This is an excellent demonstration why your going in
method is badly
flawed, and can never work.

You could make it the background of the table, but you'd
still have the text
resizing problem.

  • Flash and dream weaver

    I havnt tried it yet, but im just curious to get a head start
    for when I do. I will have roughly 5 flash buttons and a movie clip
    (with a rollover function for the buttons) all positioned around a
    page... When I import them to dream weaver, will I be able to
    position them how I want, or will I have to do it in flash as one
    large movie so they all work together?
    One other thing, non-flash related. In dreamweaver (if anyone
    knows) will I be able to make objects even up on the page without
    them shifting due to screen size/resolution. Not sure if I can lay
    the entire thing out in a table or not. I lvoe working with the
    layers except they move on the screen if its not the same
    size.

    I think you only have two options. first is, like what you
    said, you should do it in one big flash file and embed it in the
    HTML in Dreamweaver. but the disadvantage is that you will find it
    hard to place other elements together with your flash. But the
    second option is, in order for your site to be flexible, you design
    a table where you can individually place your buttons and movie
    clips inside. Add a little modifications in the actionscript if
    your buttons are supposed to communicate with the movie
    clip.

  • What is the best way to create a message board in Dream Weaver CS3?

    I need to create a simple message board in Dream Weaver CS3. Any ideas or tutorials that you know of?

    Even a simple BB would require really advanced coding skills with server-side scripts,  databases, JavaScript,  not to mention a good deal of experience with web server security.
    Ask your hosting provider if they support 3rd party products like VBulletin or  phpBB.

  • How do web site created with After Effect differ from that created with dream weaver or Flash?

    As I have some experiance not much in After Effect..I have created my website in After Effect., I  have no  knowledge of Dream weaver or Flash..  My web pages take too much time to open., due to it loads SHOCK WAVE and it take much longer time., were as I see many a website created in other software opens prety fast. As such I want to know whether creating website in After effect is right or not.,   and how to speed up

    You do not create websites in AE, you can create at best animations and that is what you ahev done - produce a fat SWF file. You are really using the wrong tool and should better spend your time on learning HTML and CSS proper and do your website in Dreamweaver or otehr web design tools. And no, Flash is not a website design tool, either.

  • Illustrator into Dream Weaver

    So first of all this is my first time here and I am very sorry if I forget anything or do anything wrong. I looked for this question and was not able to find it. I would appreciate any help that anyone can offer. Here is some of the information
    I am on Windows Vista Business
    Dell Optiplex Gx745
    Intel Core 2
    Adobe Web Premium CS3
    Here is my problem:
    My company is always sending our marketing pieces to an outside company and I was hoping to take on this and make my position in the company a little more solid. When the latest piece needed to be made I volunteered to design it and I thought the best way to do so was through Illustrator. I put a lot of work into designing it and the company loves it. It came out great but now I need to make it functional. It is suppose to be sent out as an email and have a link in the email to our website that will have a sign up form. I cannot seem to figure this out. I can make it into a PDF and then ad a link in that but when I make it into a HTML the link does not work. I have tried to but it into Dream Weaver but it only comes across as an image (jpg) and to add a button I cant put it on top of the image. Please help me figure out how to make my Illustrator file into a html with active links.

    Anthony,
    A regular plain image (like a JPEG or GIF) can't actually have a clickable area, you can create clickable areas by placing the image into an html document and using either a hyper link on an image or an image map to make a link to the form.
    There are several ways to get what you want. One possible solution is to export your design from illustrator using the Save for Web & Devices command. The two most common formats for web images are JPEG and GIF. The JPEG format works well for continuous tone images and the GIF format is superior for limited tone Then you can open Dreamweaver, Insert the image into a web page and use the image map tools to draw a rectangular hotspot around the area of the image you want to be clickable. When the hotspot is selected you can add the address you want it to link to to in the Property inspector at the bottom of the interface.

  • Change language in Dream weaver CS5

    Hi,
    How can i change language of Dream Weaver CS5 from German to English?

    This is as easy as it gets. Sorry to disappoint, but you rather be glad it is actually there and  it's not like in other programs where you cannot switch languages at all. For all intents and purposes, this is not meant to provide an all out solution for flexible language switching, it is merely a fallback measure when the user needs to use prefab projects from the web or follow tutorials as wel las providing a compatibility fix for some plug-ins and scripts thatr do weird things in foreign language environments. Your program is still tied to the serial number you bought it with and that ultimately dictates any language settings. This also means that you cannot enforce other languages other than English. Would be pointless, anyways - you would have to have the proper Asian installer in the first place to even get the specific language files on your system. Same for otehr languages - a US/ North America installer will never give you Italian or German, just US English, Canadian French and possibly Spanish.

  • IWeb - Dream Weaver Tag Team

    I used iWeb to design my site
    and really dig how user friendly it is.
    I don't understand why pro web design apps can't be this easy.
    I want to use dream weaver only to make updates to my gallery.
    This would keep me from having to re-upload the whole site with
    any small change. Could someone point out how
    I could add pix to my gallery in dream weaver and keep the layout from iWeb.
    When I try to edit or add images it acts as though it is locked.
    Sorry to ask a dream weaver question here. Here is my gallery. http://macmcrae.com/Site/GALLERY.html

    Grant...
    When you publish a site, only the pages that have changes to them get uploaded. To see this for yourself, you will notice in iWeb that any page on the page listing turns red when it gets a change. This means "has changed and needs to be published". So, iWeb is smart enough to recognize when something has been changed and not yet published.
    Then when you tell iWeb to publish the site, watch the dialog that appears and you will see that only the changes page(s) get sent. It is likely true that iWeb sends everything on that page (all photos, for example) even for a minor text change on the page has occured. But this is much better than iWeb sending the entire site.

  • PHP won't execute on Dream Weaver testing server

    I have successfully installed an Apache server and MySQL using Xampp.  Using Dream Weaver (CS5.5) I've created .php pages which (after setting up the site and testing server) successfully connect to a database.  However, php code on those pages won't execute.  The pages only display the text code when IE or Firefox links to http://localhost/filename.php.  Following is the Apache log file entries for those failed attempts.

    If PHP is running in other locations, then it's a configuration issue with the server whereby PHP is not allowed to run in the folder you have specified.  I can tell you filenames and areas to look for, but I'm personally have never found the XAMPP installation to be the most intuitive when it comes to editing which is why I pointed you in their direction.
    If you look in the httpd.conf file, you should see a DocumentRoot defined.  Make sure that the site definition is within that document root.  There should also be a Directory declaration ( <Directory "/path/to"> ) that should match the path of your DocumentRoot.  It is possible to serve documents from different areas of your computer.  Ususally this is done when you have things like phpMyAdmin above the root, so if you see multiple entries in there, some of which XAMPP installs itself, you should leave them alone and ask their support forum for help because they will know which entries the application puts in that you will not want to remove.

  • Dream Weaver CS 5.5 not showing Flash/Vimeo/JW player and other Flash content local

    Hi,
    I have just installed WebPremium CS 5.5 and when I look locally through XAMPP at a web site in any browser, no Vimeo/JW players or Flash content
    are showed. Flash is installed!!! The rest of the site is visible.
    Only in "Live View" I can see everything as normal in dream weaver CS 5.5, but not in any browser.
    When I look at the same site local  in DW CS4 all looks fine.
    Have no clue how this is possible. All suggestions are much very appreciated!!
    Thanks! David

  • Dream Weaver CS 3 Image Insert

    Hello.  I'm new here,  and probably don't have right forum but here goes.  Dream Weaver CS 3.  I am trying to set up my first test web page and seem to do okay until I get to images.  When I insert image and select what I want, it says "not in root folder, do I want to save image to this folder"  I click yes, then try to insert.  All I get is some kind of a "form image" I take it to be - looks like a place holder.  If I drag the image its name  appears at the insert point but no image.   What am I doing wrong, or where do I post this?  Thanks.

    Hi,
    You dont need spry, its a simple nav bar is all. Most likely was created by hand.
    This is the CSS code for it.
    #navbar {
         width:960px;
         height:1.4em;
         margin:0 auto;
         text-align:center;
         line-height:1.4em;
    This is the HTML code for it.
            <div id="navbar">
                 <a href="index.html">Home</a>
                 <a href="about-artigas-plumbing.html">About Us</a>
                 <a href="services.html">Services</a>
                 <a href="plumbing-tips.html">Tips & Hints</a>
                 <a href="contact.html">Contact Us</a>
            </div><!--close navbar-->
    The div layer is a simple way to contain the links then it uses the CSS to control the layout.
    That kind of code is applied to each page or you could create a template then put that code into it and apply the template to a page. Then all pages with that template applied to it can be updated easily.

  • Dream Weaver CS 4 setup fails

    Today I purchased a Dream Weaver CS 4 upgrade. I have Dream Weaver 8 which I bought from Adobe.com and I have Dream Weaver CS3 which I brought from Amazon.com.
    The error message I get is setup cannot continue. There is no specific reason stated.
    Both Dream Weaver 8 and Dream Weaver CS 3 runs fine.
    Any ideas what could be wrong? Anyone?

    Run the CS4 Clean Utility from the support pages. Have it unregister all older Adobe tools/ current tools. This wil lremove them from the installer database, but the programs themselves remain intact. In addition, manually uninstall Adobe AIR and associate applications such as Adobe Media Player. After that, install DW CS4.

  • Dream Weaver and IFS

    Hi
    We are having Dream Weaver manage the files on the Desktops of Users
    Dream Weaver takes care of tracking the embedded image files in the HTML files.
    questiona are
    1. Does IF take care of the embedded Image
    files (gif, jpgs etc..) and if NO
    then
    2. Can Dream Weaver do the file uploads
    through IFS
    Also when loading content into Database (IFS not in picture here), with only Intermedia in picture, how do we mange to maintain the links of the image files embedded in the HTML files which will be stored in the database?
    Or is it that Oracle takes care of this implicitly?
    Answers required ASAP
    Thank you very much for the same
    Would appreciate any links or suggetsions to refernce manual

    We used dreamweaver in the development of iFS's WebUI. You can use either FTP or map the iFS repository as a network drive using SMB.
    Any links to graphics will be retained. It is always best to use relative links as they have a much better chance of being portable.
