Dreamweaver 8 is removing forward slash when creating pages

Dreamweaver 8
Links set to be relative to Site Root
If I create a template that has ../index.php as the home link, and also create a few pages from that template, the links on those pages all start with a forward slash:
/stuff/
However, if I then change the template to have a home link like this:
and then save, all the links in the already-built pages suddenly lose their site-root forward slash and instead look like this:
stuff/
and the home link now looks like this in the created pages:
../ (yep, it stays like that)
I did not change links to be relative to document
Hmmmmm.....I'm noticing that it's occurring when I edit the template, when you then save the edited template, it updates all the pages made with that template but then all the links are now without the front forward slash, so it looks like this is getting triggered when the template is edited
It doesn't change how the links are in the template ../whatever, but all the updated links in the built pages now do not have a front forward slash
And once it changes to the non-forward slash version, it never goes back, it stays as link/
Does anyone know what might be wrong? I need all the links to stay as /relative-to-site-root/
Thanks

> Does anyone know of a setting or fix for this problem
It was regarded as a bug in previous versions, and was fixed
in the 8.0.2
release. In normal circumstances, ALL links in a template
file must be
relative to the template document, not relative to where you
intend to save
the child pages. Thus, there would be no way to have a link
in your
template document like the first one you show, e.g.,
<img src="whatever.png"....
*unless* the file was actually in the Templates folder (a bad
idea).
In 8.0.2, you can set your PREFERENCES for the Templates
category to NOT
MANAGE relative links. Be aware that this may have unintended
consequences
for you - specifically regarding other relative links in your
site.

Problems when Creating Pages from Templates in Dreamweaver 8

When creating new pages from templates in Dreamweaver 8(Ver
8.0.2). The full path for images is not created
i.e. in template the code is <img src="main_page_logo.png"
width="814" height="172" longdesc="Main Page Logo" />
In the new file the code should be :-
<img src="../../Templates/main_page_logo.png" width="814"
height="172" longdesc="Main Page Logo" />
but only :-
<img src="main_page_logo.png" width="814" height="172"
longdesc="Main Page Logo" /> is in the code.
but this does work in Version 8.0.

No forward slash when in Safari???

In order to access my web mail, I have to enter my domain name and password. My domain name includes the "\"; however, when browsing in Safari, there is no forward slash?? How is this possible? Does this mean I cannot access my web mail?

I just realized that if you're using the keyboard for the URL bar, the "#+=" button isn't there.
Have you tried entering it as a hexadecimal equivalent? For example, if you need to enter "john\adams", instead put in "john%5Cadams" (%5C is the hex code for "\")

Templates do no appear when creating pages

I am using 10g....
When I create a Template in a particular Page Group (in the Templates folder) I am not able to select this template when I create a new page in the that Page Group. The only templates that are available to select are those in the Shared Object Folder.
There are a couple bugs with 10g, is this another one or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for your assistance,
Rob

Rob,
When you create the template you have to make it available explicitly for pages to use by checking this check box:
[ ] Make available for use in this page group
After selecting this option you will be able to assign it to your pages.

Layout issues when creating page from valid template

Hi,
I have a built a page from which I have created a template. Both page and template render perfectly in Live and Design view. Both preview in FF, Safari and IE with no problem.
However, when I create a new page from the template, in Design View the page layout is pretty messed up. Lots of divs are wrapping and it appears that a clearing div is being ignored. In Live View, the page created from the template looks perfectly fine.
So to me it appears DW is doing rendering a page created from a template differently. The HTML is valid markup and it is this one edge case that we're fighting right now. DW bug?
To summarize:
- Source page looks good in Live and Design View
- Template created from source looks good in Live and Design View
- A New Page created from Template looks good in Live View, messed up in Design View.
- Source, Template and New Page all render correctly in FF, Safari and IE.
Can anyone suggest a solution or even the next debugging steps?
Regards,
Nobby

Hi there,
I have uploaded the site as-is to a temp location:
http://www.lakemeadowsopen.com/biglever
The homepage is rendering no problem. The template in question can be found at:
http://www.lakemeadowsopen.com/biglever/Templates
and the name of the template is overview.dwt
Thanks.

How to remove forward button from notification Page?

Hi All,
I would like to remove (disable ) forward button from Req approval work flow ? How can i achive this functionality ?
I will be appriciate for help.
Thanks
pat

Well, I'm guessing that you are using PO workflows, and using one of the standard lookups? Without having any details of what you are using, trying to second guess the answer is somewhat difficult.
If it's the case that you are talking about the PO workflows, then the buttons are standard functionality based on the lookup type that is used as the notification response. Trying to suppress this doesn't actually make much sense - you are sending someone a notification, asking them to take action, and then not giving them any ability to respond to the notification.
You would need to customize / personalize the notification page if you want to remove the buttons. The question then is - how will the process continue if you are removing the ability to respond to the notification?

Index.html pages in local sub-directories will not load automatically when sub-directory name entered into address field, followed by a forward-slash

I am in the process of designing a website-on-a-CD. In order to make things easier for my clients, I decided to organize this site into local sub-directories with an index.html page in each one. However, when I try to enter the local sub-directory name, followed by a forward-slash, the index page does not open automatically. Instead, I get a raw directory listing that includes the index.html file, and anything else that is present within it. I would like to know if there is any way to force this page to load automatically within Firefox from a local storage medium as it would load from a web-server.

You need to use file:// as the protocol instead of C:/. The latter may never work (C:\ might).
Where is the main HTML located ?
Easiest if to store the images in a sub folder of the location because you can't go back via ../ beyond that root location for security reasons.

IWeb hangs while creating page

I have been using iWeb for quite a while without major problems. However, lately the program hangs when creating pages. When I try to publish to MobileMe, iWeb starts creating the pages, the bar turns completely blue and then it just sits there indefinitely. I have to Force quit the program. Restarting the program or the computer do not solve the problem.
Any suggestions? Thanks for your help!

It finally published. Perhaps a bad connection with the server

When typing an 'L' followed by forward slash '/' I get a weird character

I can't figure this out. whenever I type a string of text that requires an L and forward slash together I get some weird character that resembles an 'f' like for designating a 'function' in an equation only its backwards. this occurs in terminal, like in this example: cd /usr/local/name the 'l' at the end of local and the forward slash become one character. I can't duplicate this character any other time, just when l/ are in a string. Any ideas? I get this in terminal and entourage (only in plain text mode - html emails the character doesn't show) mainly.

What you are seeing is a diacritic of an L with a line through it. It does the same for o/. You are probably using a font like Palantino, Hoefler, Chicago, or New York.
I don’t use Terminal so I don’t know how to change it in that application, but in TextEdit
1. open the Font panel (Format/Fonts/Show Fonts, or Command-t)
2. from the Action menu (small gear shape in lower left corner) choose Typography
3. in the Typography window select the Diacritics section (if there is no Diacritics, select in the Fonts panel one of the fonts mentioned above, like Chicago and the Typography window will change to show a Diacritics panel)
4. click Don’t Compose Diacritics button
I couldn’t find a Show Fonts command in Terminal, but now that you know the procedure, maybe you can figure it out.

Attributes being removed when creating a Purchase Order

Hi,
We are running SRM 4.0 ECS.
I have an issue when creating a PO directly (BBP_POC).
When I have enter the item line information and then go details to enter a G/L account, the attributes UOM and Gross Price are removed. I need to go Back to Item overview to fill them in again. If I do it in Item detail in the Basic data tab, the attribute data keeps on being removed.
Does anyone know why this happens?

HI,
That means the PO print program is using some table (EKKO, EKPO,KONV and may be other for condition record) to get the value of the PO.
now those table get updated only after you save the PO.
That's the reason you are not getting any value in print preview before saving.

Stored procedure not found when creating a new recordset binding in Dreamweaver CS6 with ColdFusion Server 11

Stored procedure not found when creating a new recordset binding in Dreamweaver CS6 with ColdFusion Server 11. I can see the tables and views in the database tab, but no stored procedures. If I connect to a data source created in ColdFusion Server 6 I am able to see the stored procedures.

Ben thanks for the reply!
Yes that is the process I am following:
In Dreamweaver, open the page that will run the stored procedure.
In the Bindings panel (Window > Bindings), click the Plus button, and then select Stored Procedure.
In the Data Source pop‑up menu, select a connection to the database containing the stored procedure
Enter the ColdFusion Data Source user name and password.
At this point in the procedure drop down I would get a message that said No Stored Procedure Found.
Right now it appears to be working, I had to create a new site that pointed to the older CF 6 server's data source and create a page following the process above, then when I went back to the CF 11 site the stored procedures were now populated. I need to make sure it is pulling from the correct server but right now it appears to be working.
Thanks

Limit users in search when Forwarding workitem or creating Substit. Rule?

When you are in Universal Worklist, you have capabilities to Forward workitems or Maintain Substitution Rules. In both cases there is a select box where you can search and pick a user from the system who you want to Forward a workitem to or say make your Substitute when creating a Substitution rule.
Is there a way to limit the users returned when searching?   It appears you can find any account/user in the system. For example, we entered "admin*" in the search box and it returned "administrator". We would not want this or any other kind of non end user account.
Also, we have concerns about customers accidentally being able to forward workitems to different customers or competitors.
Matt

Hi Mike, thanks for the OSS and reply. I agree with what you are saying. I'll just add a few comments. To help clarify, I guess there are two security concerns.   One is who you can forward workitems to and the other is hacker type security. A security vulnerability report from a 3rd party is what prompted my posting. They had issue with the user search on creating substitute and forwarding workitems (the fact it allows a complete enumeration of the system's user accounts).
Restricting by possible agents (=General Forwarding not Allowed) is also for exactly this purpose.
Perhaps that explains why not many companies have the same concern?
I agree and we are using this in some workflows. It does prevent you from forwarding a workitem to someone that is not a possible agent. The problem is that the user search still shows all user accounts. Fails their report and some of our users complain it forces them to know who the other possible agents are or guess.
Another option is to not allow forwarding for the task but put the whole thing in a loop and give them a forward option as a decision choice or button which results in an agent selection step or popup box and then loops around, sending the task to the new agent.
Yes, we do this in some workflows. The only issue is that we do this with synchronous dialog in SBWP and we cannot do the same in UWL.
Thanks again for your reply.
Matt

Letters change when creating PDF

I am using Acrobat Professional 6 and creating PDFs with the "Adobe PDF" icon it created when installed.
Some documents from the Bloomberg system are converted by a sort of substitution cypher to gibberish. Capital letters are affected, but not lowercase. Capital letters are changed to the next letter in the alphabet. Also, numerals are increased by one. Exclamation points replace spaces, forward slashes replace periods, etc.
For example, the original said this:
Crandon Capital Partners v. Shelk, 202 Ore. 537
The PDF says this:
Drandon!Dapital!Qartners!v/!Shelk/!313!Pre/!648
This is repeatable on different days and with different files.
This does not happen with files from other sources, but the Bloomberg tech people insist it doesn't happen for them. I learned they are using Acrobat 8; could that be the difference?
In any case, how do I fix it?
Peter W. Schroth

Look at the document properties (ctrl-D) under the font tab. You probably did not embed the fonts. I suspect you are using the Standard Settings which does not embed all fonts. Try changing the settings file to Press or Paper (I don't remember which ones are listed for AA8). You can also check the settings to be sure that the fonts are embedded (all of them) and probably subset.
