Dreamweaver CS4 - Timeline Substitute.

I need to find a way to duplicate the timeline functionality that used to be present in Dreamweaver (prior to CS4).  I need to do some timed events, I'm trying to setup a kiosk that will rotate between several pages automatically.  I'm sure there are javascripts i can use but was hoping that someone had created a DW extension or some sort of behavior to handle this type of thing.  Or better yet that there is something already built into the application that can handle timed events.
thanks
dave

I found a script that worked for my purpose.
<script>
setTimeout("form1.submit()", 300000);
</script>
I mostly needed to submit a form on a set rotation.  This works for me.
here a link to a quick description of the script http://www.w3schools.com/js/js_timing.asp

  • Runtime error in Dreamweaver CS4

    When trying to start to work with Dreamweaver CS4 I get a runtime error
    Afther building a website in in div's and css and saving it I had no problems. Afther closing the computer and starting to work the next morning I got the error. I've restarted my computer, cleaned my registry but still the error appears.
    Does anyone no what to do? Please help.
    It is impossible to work without Dreamweaver.

    I am using Vista so file locations are different. Still, I cannot find any preferences folder or configuration folder that I can rename to recreate. There is no "CreamWeaver" folder in the user profile - even in the hidden parts.
    Anyone have any other ideas?
    Rename the folder to Configuration_old and launch Dreamweaver.  It should create a new Configuration folder with the factory defaults.
    On Vista, it's located at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\en_US\Configuration.
    It's a hidden folder, so you need to enable hidden folders in Windows Explorer.
    Technote: 
    Try step 4 in the following technote: - corrupt cache file:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_19105
    If that doesn't work Try #12 -  deleting your personal configuration folder.
    This information is also available  in the Dreamweaver FAQ

  • Can't see Remote data in Dreamweaver CS4

    I have a site that I have had for years and recently changed from a real old version of Dreamweaver to Dreamweaver CS4.  I had trouble getting my FTP to work so I used an external program to move the files.  The files have been uploaded and the site is active on the Internet so I know there are there.
    When I use Dreamweaver, the only thing I can see is the "/" that represents the root folder.  All the site definitions say that it can connect to my server, it just does not show the files.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks, Fred

    Hi,
    here I'll quote a hint from Nancy O. for DW applications:
    Try toggling Passive and/or Secure FTP on/off.
    Your web host might have changed upload requirements to improve security.
    Another thing to check is your Anti-virus and Firewall settings. If they are too restrictive, DW may not have permission to connect to the remote server.

  • Extension Manager CS4 not installing extensions in Dreamweaver CS4

    Just installed CS4 Design Premium. Now i want to install some
    extensions to Dreamweaver.
    When I click on the extension to install it I get a message
    from the Extension Manager saying:
    "This extension can not be installed, it products requires
    Dreamweaver 6 or greater. To install this extension, please try to
    install Dreamweaver CS4 or use Extension Manager CS3 which works
    with Adobe CS3 and earlier products."
    I have even tried to install it by opening the Extension
    Manager from Dreamweaver via the
    Commands menu, with the same results.
    - I have version 2.0.274 of Adobe Extension Manager CS4.
    - I do not see the Dreamweaver icon in Extension Manager's
    product list*
    - I tried to reinstall Dreamweaver
    (which also reinstalled Extension Manager)
    - Easy to forget; I am on a Mac
    - The extensions should be okay, as they install quite nice
    in Dreamweaver CS3
    I tried to look for a
    plist to edit, but as I do not really know what to look for
    this action failed.
    *in the same order i find the icons of Flash CS4, Fireworks
    CS4, Photoshop CS4, Indesign CS4, Illustrator CS4 and Bridge CS4 in
    the products list.

    What extensions are you trying to install?

  • Dreamweaver CS4 interface problems in Win 7 Ultimate 64bit

    I'm experiencing some frutratingly bizzare behavior with Dreamweaver CS4 and Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and I'm hoping someone might now how to fix the issues.
    1) When creating a new site by selecting "Site/New Site..." or "Site/Manage Sites..." the fields for selecting "Local root folder" and "Default images folder" always select a directory above where I tell it.
    For example if I tell it to use "E:\ClientFiles\Client\website\" it always selects "E:\ClientFiles\Client\". and the only solution is to write in the proper directory manually.
    2) Possibly related to the above targeting problem. In a document, even an new empty xhtml, if I place an image on the page and double click on that image to replace it with another I get the dialog box for selecting the new image, but on pressing "OK" nothing happens. The same thing occurs if I select the fodler icon in the properites at the bottom. The only methods that work are either deleting the placed image and then placing a new image or deleting the "Src" info in the "properties" panel and then clicking the folder icon next to "Src".
    You can see how this would get frustrating after a while.
    I've tried a complete reinstall of CS4, deleting the Dreamweaver cache file, and I get the same behavior on my laptop which is also running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.
    Any help would be appreciated. I've submitted this behavior to Adobe support as well in hops that it can some how be resolved.

    Both are known issues in DW on Win 7 and Vista. It's not just 64 bit.
    Until Adobe issues a patch, the workarounds you describe are the only solutions for the timebeing.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 Insert Table button does not work.

    I recently upgrade from an older version of Dreamweave to Dreamweaver CS4. But now I have a problem with inserting tables.
    They have the dropdown on the top right for Classic, Coder, Coder Plus and so on. I was using classic and everything was fine, then all of a sudden if I try using the Insert Table button from the Inserts tab, it does nothing. If I right click on the button, then click on the button it works, and if i switch to any other view it works. so then I used Coder and it was fine, but then again it stopped working. So I switched to Coder Plus and it was fine for a few more days and then it stops working again. I have rebooted my machine, closed out of DW and nothing seems to fix it. I just installed all adobe software updates and there was nothing in the update that fixed the problem. Does anyone else have this issue and if so, how do I fix it?
    I have searched google and I can't find anything. I can keep switching views but one day soon if it continues, I'm going to run out of views and Its such a habit to use the button instead of the Ctrl+Alt+T shortcut.

    try the following
    Recreate Dreamweaver CS4 Configuration and registry
    - rename the configuration folder to any name. (just add any character I suggest)
    C:\Documents and Settings\[username]\Application Data\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS4\Configuration
    - recreate the registry folder
    Start > run > regedit
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER>Software>Adobe>Dreamweaver>10. Rename 10 ex: 10_old
    maybe you can post your specs here for more specific troubleshooting. Cheers!

  • Problems to Download Dreamweaver CS4 with Akamai Download Manager!

    I want to download Dreamweaver CS4 Italian Windows Trial version.
    I have Internet Explorer 7, PC with OS Windows XP x64bit Corporate, Core2Quad Q9650, Motherboard MSI P45Platinum with Ethernet 10/100/1000,
    4GBRAM,3 HDD 500GB WesternDigital,Nvidia GeForce 9400GT.
    I have installed "Akamai Download Manager ActiveX" control asked on the top of window popup.
    Clicked Yes:Installation confirmation.
    But I have tried to click the button "Download" and just one window with this message appears and disappears immediately:
    Per scaricare il software è necessario installare Akamai Download Manager...
    Problemi di download?
    Assistenza per il download...
    Il sistema non dispone dei requisiti minimi per eseguire Akamai Download Manager.
    (The system doesn't meets the minimum system requirements to run Akamai Download Manager.)
    I can't download anything. Why?
    I have disable Pop-ups Blocker, and disabled also Anti-Phishing Filter.
    Disabled also Antivirus and the Firewall.
    Set and lowered Security Protection from Tools>Internet Options: to "Medium"; and also, another time, set to "Personalized" with all the controls
    switched to "Active".
    Set Privacy>Settings>"Accetta tutti i cookie"(lowered to full bottom).
    I have read this Akamai Download Manager FAQ:
    -"Nothing happens when I click the download link"
    If nothing happened after you clicked the download link, either your pop-up blocker or a high security setting on your web browser may have stopped
    the Akamai DLM window from opening.
    If you have a pop-up blocker enabled in your web browser or in your Internet toolbar (such as the Yahoo! toolbar or the Google toolbar), you will
    need to disable your pop-up blocker to start your download. For additional information, and for instructions on changing your security setting, see
    the "Akamai Download Manager system requirements" (ServiceNote kb400530).
    Note: The download manager can sometimes take up to a minute to load. Please allow time for the initial loading before assuming there is a problem
    Thus, I have followed this rules in Akamai Download Manager System Requirements:
    Internet Explorer 7
    1) Access your Internet options from the Windows Control Panel (Internet Options) or by selecting Tools > Internet Options in Internet Explorer
    2) Select the Security Tab
    3) Click Custom Level
    4) Scroll through the list of security options and set:
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Download signed ActiveX controls > Enable or Prompt
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Enable or Prompt
    -ActiveX controls and plug-ins > Script ActiveX controls marked safe for scripting > Enable or Prompt
    -Downloads > File download > Enable
    -Miscellaneous > Allow script-initiated windows without size or position constraints > Enable
    -Scripting > Active scripting > Enable
    5) Click OK
    6) Click OK again
    But nothing changes.
    On my PC I have also this installation: "J2SE Runtime Environment 5.0 Update 5" and "Java(TM)6 Update 15".
    But the download doesn't start at all.
    1) How can I do to download Dreamweaver CS4-Windows-ITALIAN language?
    2) Is it possible to download 364.8 MegaBytes without Akamai Download Manager?
    Please Hurry!
    Horsepower0171.

    another option you may have is resettofactory
    start- run- type:
    cmd
    press enter
    type:
    cd c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
    press enter
    type:
    loader.exe /resettofactory
    press enter
    please perform a backup first
    test your browser before you restore your backup, and to be ssafe I would do a selective restore
    open DTM, go to backup/restore- advanced
    top left click on file-open
    find your backup, it will load on the left side
    you current working BB will be on the right side
    transfer ONLY the absolute important databases from the left to the right(address, cal, phone logs, messages, sms, tasks, memo)... dont do any that you dont know and dont do any OPTIONS ones

  • How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?

    How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?
    I have cs4. I gave up on using MS sql as a datasource. I finally got a php successfull connection in my PHP web page.
    I would like a nice video tutorial for creating a dynamic menu.
    I guess i can style it by attaching a css file to the page. Are their any already designed css files out there in some online area?
    i am not a good designer. so i would like to simply have a collection of menu_style.css files and choose what looks good.
    But first i need to build the spry menu from the mysql database.
    Any help is apprechiated.
    My first choice was to maintain the data in an MS sql server file. If i could directly attach to an ms sql datasource then that would be the best option.
    I dont think i want to have to re-generate an XML datasource each time i add or modify the menu. I would like to maintain the MS Sql or mySql file instead.
    If i could generate an XML datasource from the MS Sql database then I may even prefere that, but i have spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to do that and not had any success. So i prefere working in MS sql but would settle for mySql if i had to.
    Thanks

  • Can't see the widget in Live view in Dreamweaver CS4 for Mac

    Hi
    Following this example in http://www.truveo.com/Web-Widgets-in-Dreamweaver-CS4/id/180144024212823976
    from Scott Fegette to place a YUI Calendar inside a project in Dreamweaver CS4. I see that Scott after placing the YUI_Calendar.mxp they got the calendar in Live view mode and I can't do the same, can't see in Live View, only a blank page.
    I follow all the Scott's instructions correctly because the code is there and I can see the calendar in the browser but not in Live View... If I turn off the Live View then can see the YUI Calendar in Design View only (a light blue tag named YUI_calendar).
    I'm under Mac OS X 10.5.6.
    Can you help me to see the YUI Calendar in Live View?

  • Dreamweaver CS4 - Record Insertion Form js error

    Hi
    I'm dreamweaver cs4 and started using the Record Insertion form, I was mainly experimenting with it and just seeing what it could do.
    However when I get to the wizard i have to wait a few seconds for it to connect to the database and then I get an error message that says:
    While executing onLoad in ServerObject-InsRecPHP.htm, the following Javascript error(s) occured:
    At line 283 of the file "Macintosh HD:Application:Adobe Dreamweaver
    CS4:Configuration:Commands:ServerObject-FormCmnPHP.js":
    invalid array length
    I was just wondering if this was a common problem, or I've messed something up either in Dreamweaver, or in the SQL database that I'm using.
    I've also noticed that its the same for Update and Delete Records Wizards aswell.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    I see it's your first post. Welcome to the forum.
    A good place to start looking for answers is the Dreamweaver FAQ. You'll find the answer to your question under "Crashes, installation, JavaScript, and unexplained problems".

  • Error Installing Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows 7: Installer Database is Corrupt

    Error Message: The Installer Database is Corrupt. Please contact Adobe Customer Service.
    I bought a new laptop and would like to install Dreamweaver CS4 on it. It is already running fine on my desktop, being installed back in 1/2011. Both PCs are Windows 7 but the new laptop is Windows 7 Professional.  I have downloaded the two install files ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.7z and ADBEDRWVCS4_LS1.exe multiple ways and to multiple locatons on the laptop. I've run the .exe file multiple ways and extracted to several locations besides the default (c:\users\userid\Desktop\Adobe CS4). After the extract completes and it tries to run setup I get the same message "The Installer Database is corrupt. Please Contact Adobe Customer Service" (which I did and they just gave me another download link I had already tried).
    I even copied the folder with the extracted files done on my desktop (where the install had succeeded). And still got the same message when I ran setup.exe on the laptop. I tried running it with a "run as administrator" command prompt, double-clicking in Windows Explorer, start > run and the same thing happens. At least it doesn't appear that it has actually installed anything yet.
    I did notice that my new PC has a program called "7-zip 9.20" installed which I do not remember installing and its install date is prior to my purchase of the PC so I'm guessing it came with it (HP Pavilion 15t running Windows 7 Professional 64-bit). The Windows 7 Desktop does not have this program installed. It is available from C|net where it has a good rating. Perhaps setup.exe does further extracting and the 7-zip program is the culprit? This is a long shot.
    I searched for others with this problem and found lots of issues installing Dw CS4, but none quite like this.

    Awesome! That worked! Actually I searched three folders (Program Files, Program Files (x86) & Program Data) for caps.db and found:
    c:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premier Elements\caps.db (dated 9/2/2011)
    c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Backup\caps.db
    I ignored the first one since it might be needed by the Premier Elements 10 I installed yesterday and changed the name of the other one from caps.db to barb.fix.
    I changed the install folder from c:\Program Files\Adobe to c:\Program Files (x86) just in case CS4 is a 32-bit application which I had done before when installing on my Windows7 Desktop. Now that the install has completed I see that I have caps.db files dated 5/5/2014 in
    c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\caps\caps.db
    c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\backup\caps.db (barb.fix is still there but is only 26kb vs 3291 kb for the new caps.db)
    Thank-you so much! Now wish me luck when I try to open it for the first time!

  • Problem with Dreamweaver CS4 after upgrade to Lion

    I am having a problem after upgrading to Lion,  with my  Dreamweaver CS4 . When I try to use the bold button the text completely dissapears from the screen in design view The text is still there as it shows up in preview and also shows up in  code view. Has anyone else had similar problems since the upgrade? and is there going to be a fix for it.

    http://www.adobe.com/products/creativesuite/faq.html#lion-os
    There are a number of known compatibility issues with Creative Suites and Lion

    Can't see your specific issue mentioned though.
    Perhaps report it to Adobe via the Bug Report form giving full details

  • Will Dreamweaver CS4 work properly with 10.6.1 Snow Leopard?

    Hello
    Can anyone tell me please, if Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 work properly with my MacBook OS 10.6.1 Snow Leopard? Adobe state "Mac OS X v10.4.11–10.5.4" in the system requirements, but does this mean, in practise, that Dreamweaver will not work properly with Snow Leopard?
    I have tried to find info about this here, but have spend ages wading through masses of complaints about various applications crashing for people after they upgraded to 10.6.1 Snow Leopard. Personally, touch wood, I've had no problems with Snow Leopard, but I only really use it for Internet surfing and word processing (my work, music stuff on Logic Pro 8, is done on my Mac Pro which came with Leopard and which I am NOT upgrading - not yet!).
    I have also attempted to get an answer from Adobe - I 'phoned their "Pre-sales enquiries" number 0800 028 0148 (in the UK) and spoke to someone who sounded as if she was on the moon and who clearly had absolutely no idea what I was talking about. I gave up with them! They didn't give an email address to ask on.
    I'd be very grateful if anyone can give a clear, authoritative answer please - if possible.

    I've been a Mac user since 1987 and have never upgraded the OS too soon after a new version was launched. Any new OS, like new houses, will have a 'snagging list' - unforeseen problems that arise and need to be sorted before your purchase is truly habitable and functions as expected.
    But the stability of OS X 10.5 paved the way for my lapse of judgement when I upgraded to Snow Panther last week, while its compatibility with some major software is still clearly too buggy.
    I've been using Dreamweaver (DW) CS4 successfully on OS X 10.5 for some time. Since installing OS X 10.6.1 I now have problems with DW, which I've alerted Adobe to.
    When using Design View in DW CS4, any formatted text - from html tags to css tags - disappears from the Design view. The code appears correctly in the Code window and even if you highlight text that has coding attached in Code view - eg text with a url link attached - the Design view continues to ignore it and removes the text from its view. I've discovered that my heading tags (h1, h2, etc) all make the text disappear in Design view in a way that would be the envy of members of the Magic Circle! The only thing that seems to get through is text that is surrounded by paragraph tags.
    Thing is that 'Preview in Browser' shows the page correctly (except in Opera, which I've only installed since installing Snow Leopard, so I can't say how this displayed in the previous OS versions).
    Also when I upload the site to the server it all seems to display more or less as it should.
    So currently it seems that DW CS4's Design view is no longer WYSIWYG! Expect to find lots of text hidden in Design view and have to use Code view much more.
    It would be nice to think that Apple and Adobe would talk to each other and work it out between them.
    re: Dreamweaver, I'd check back to Adobe.com regularly to see when they upgrade the OS requirements to 10.6.1 (I hadn't spotted before I bought Snow Leopard that they only go up to 10.5 in their OS recommendations).
    My advice if you're thinking of upgrading to Snow Panther: delay it until it more of it works compatibly with your major applications. Check the OS spec from each software manufacturer first. Meanwhile I'll just have to wait patiently for Apple & Adobe to get their act together...
