[dw8] banners flotantes

Hola amigos simplemnte me interesaria saber como hacer esos
banners que
andan por toda la pagina hechos en flash y que tienen un
boton cerrar y
desaparecen, como puedo hacer que un banner aparezca asi en
el centro de la
pagina y luego se vaya solo...Gracias a todos!!

Se me ocurre que podés usar capas en DW, de esta forma,
incluso podés usar
una figura irregular con fondo transparente. Como por
ejemplo: una persona
corriendo arriba de los textos y botones.

  • Can't View Live Data in DW8

    I am trying to view MS Access database records in a jsp page
    using Dreamweaver 8.0.2 (as part of the Cafe Townsend tutorial)
    In the Databases panel I can see the database objects. The
    test to database connection successfuly returns database records.
    However, when I click on LIVE DATA VIEW icon, a red exclamation
    mark(!) appears next to the Recordset(rs_Comment) #prior version#
    line of the Server Behaviors tab.
    When I select this line and double-click a message box
    saying: "This server behavior was created with a prior version of
    UltraDev. It will be replaced with the current version when you
    click OK in the server behavior dialog box." appears. I hit OK in
    the box, and hit OK in the Recordset dialog box that also appears.
    The exclamation marked line disappears from the Server Behavior
    tabbed pane, but the problem remains unsolved.
    I uninstalled and reinstalled DW8, but the problem persists.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Does the code get changed in any way, or does the code stay
    exactly the same
    and is dreamweaver somehow not recognizing it anymore?

  • Previewing IE in DW8 issue

    Dear Forum Community,
    I am using IE8 with Windows 7 and Dreamweaver 8.
    When I press the Preview/Debug in Browser button, I have the options to preview in Internet Explorer or Firefox.
    The Internet Explorer option is greyed out though, so does not work.  Firefox works fine.
    However, if I set IE as the Primary Browser and then press F12 it does work!
    Any suggestions why the Internet Explorer option is greyed out in the list and how to fix this welcome!
    Many thanks,
    Mike

    Could just be a feature of DW 8 that is incompatible with Windows 7 since IE8 was not available for testing at the time of DW8's release.  If it only works as default, I would leave it as default since Firefox seems to have no issue in either position.

  • Problem with flash banners in browser

    I have a very frustrating problem with my browser (any browser) opening a flash banner.  On my website we have a rotating flash banner and when I open it all four banners open at the same time.  It happens on several pages, but not in every page with a banner.  I have tried emptying my cache and turning off Kaspersky, but to no avail.
    Does anyone know what could be happening???

    my page is www.sojournfargo.org, but the page works on my wife's computer and the web designer's computer.  I also can't see the banner on www.inforum.com where the news rotates.

  • Questions on Golive - DW8 Migration

    I'm a long-time GoLive user - I started testing both apps at
    v. 1.0, and Dreamwever didn't get good until version 3, but by that
    time I was heavily invested in GoLive.
    I now am ready to switch, but i've got a laundry list of
    questions of the "I know how to do it in GoLive, how do I do it in
    DW?" variety? I've committed to switching, so I'm not looking to
    debate which is better - I just want to know how to keep my
    productivity up during (and after) the transition
    If anyone cares to educate me, i'd love some assistance:
    1)I've got 400+ pages and files in one of the 50+ sites that
    I work on regularly. So i'm not intimately familiar with the layout
    of this particular site. I know I need to edit the contact us page,
    but I don't remember if its called contactus.html, or
    /about/contact.html or /buried/deep/in/bowels/of/site/contact.html.
    In Golive, I type 'contact' into the search box in the site
    management window and all files with the word 'contact' pop up for
    me to inspect and see which one I want to edit.
    How can I quickly find a page/image/file in Dreamweaver if I
    know (a portion of) the name?
    2)I've got a PDF file in my site that I need to make sure is
    linked in, and see which pages are linked to it. In Golive, there's
    a 'link in/out' window that shows me all links to and from a
    page/image/file. Is there some such beast in Dreamweaver? Looking
    in the archives, all I see is the 'delete the file and then see
    which pages it says you'll be modifying' method, which seems scary
    to me, since my fingers sometimes move of their own accord and I
    don't want to REALLY delete the file
    3)This whole 'put dependent files' thing has me frustrated.
    Lets assume i'm working on a site that I just built from scratch
    today, and it has lots of little images. I've uploaded the entire
    site to the server, but now I need to create a new image and add it
    to one page. In Golive, i'd click the 'upload modified files'
    button, and those two files would be uploaded.
    In DW8, best I can understand it, I click the 'upload' button
    for the page, and I'm given the choice to 'upload dependent files'.
    This uploads all 30 images associated with this page, even tho they
    weren't changed. Is there some better way to do this?
    Likewise, if I just edited an image deep in the heirarchy of
    the site, but didn't edit the page, and I only need to upload that
    image, is there any button for checking modified files so I don't
    have to bother uploading the entire page & images again? This
    wouldn't be an issue if DW8 didn't make me wait until the upload
    was done before letting me work on something else. I thought this
    was something that DW had better than Golive for a while and now
    they've lost that feature?
    4)Keyboard shortcuts for site window. This may be a Mac OS X
    thing, but I would think that a program more geared towards
    'coders' rather than 'designers' would be more keyboard-friendly. I
    want to be able to navigate the 'files' window of my site by
    keyboard - arrows up /down to find a folder, Command-arrow
    down/right to open a folder and continue navigating, etc... At
    least on my system, this doesn't work - no way to open a folder
    other than double-click on it. Am I missing something?
    5)SFTP with Authentication - I'm able to successfully connect
    to my SFTP server using Transmit/Interarchy, etc, but not
    Dreamweaver. I found an old post that says that DW MX doesn't
    support non-password authentication - is this true for DW 8 as
    well?
    Thanks much for all the help - I just found this forum and
    will probably be lurking here for a few months as I get the hang of
    things now that i've joined 'the other side' :)
    Thank you!

    Bump - I did figure out # 3.5 above - I found the 'select
    modified files' and it will tell me everything I modified that day.
    Of course, that doesn't help when I work on 14 files in the morning
    and 2 in the afternoon - its still going to select and therefore
    upload all 16, but at least that's better than all 300+ files.
    I'm most interested to see what people say about #1 and #2 -
    how do I find a file in my large site, and how do I find out what
    pages are linked to a specific page or image, other then by
    'almost-deleting' it?

  • Is there a way to show all banners in week view without having to scroll?

    The new version of iCal does not allow to see all "all day" banners in week view. Does anyone know if there is a way to change this feature back to the previous versions?
    Thanks!

    No. You cannot mass delete the emails on the iPad. Why don't you try deleting them on the server on a computer? If it is an IMAP email account, that will also delete the emails from the iPad.

  • DW8 says there's no margin, but the image is still 10 or so pixels off

    Okay, so I'm new to DW and am using DW8 (what's the newest
    version anyway?)
    Here's the background and my problem:
    I'm working with a graphics designer in redesigning the site
    for our non-profit organization, and she has a gradient along the
    left side of the page. At the top of the gradient, she has a logo
    blends with the gradient. The navigation bar then runs along the
    top of the page with drop-down menus designed in Fireworks. It's a
    beautiful design, but I'm having trouble getting things to work
    properly when I'm importing them into DW.
    Once again, I'm new to DW as well as FW, but I'm a quick
    learner (i think). I brought these aspects (the gradient, logo,
    site name, and nav bar) together in FW. I want these to form the
    template for all the pages of the site so I brought them into DW to
    do so. However, I need to make sure the background (the gradient)
    repeats without the logo repeating. So I exported it separately and
    set it as the page background using page properties. I thought that
    would be simple enough. However, I can't export just the logo as a
    .jpg (which it needs to be in order to look right) without it being
    having a white background and no longer blending with the gradient.
    So now I thought to myself, that I'd export the whole FW
    image (with the gradient, logo, and nav bar) to DW and simply place
    it over the gradient background, inserting it as an image, so that
    these things show up at the top of the page but the gradient
    continues beneath the image. It's been an amazingly frustrating
    process, and I know that last idea probably sounds ridiculous to
    those more experienced than myself. However, I think it may
    actually work. The only problem, and a big one, is that when I
    insert the image for the whole FW document (or even for just the
    logo itself), even when it says the page has no margins or padding,
    it still seems to set this image in and down about 10 pixesls,
    making it offset with the gradient background and leaving the edge
    of the logo visible (which is supposed to look like it runs off the
    page). How can I fix this?
    And once it's working, how do I set these two areas, the side
    gradient with logo and the top nav bar with site name, to be the
    template for the rest of the site with the big open area I have
    left on the rest of the page as the editable region? It seems to me
    like once I get this set as the template, the rest of the pages
    will come together fairly quickly and easily.
    Is there another way to do this that would be easier? I'm
    very much open to suggestions. I don't yet have the site up on a
    testing server to show anyone online, but if you would like to
    email me
    [email protected], I'd
    welcome the correspondence and help in getting this working. I'd
    also be willing to send the .html files to someone by email if they
    could be helpful. Sorry for the long post, but I've spent all day
    working on this problem, and am absolutely desperate. Please help,
    and thank you for your time.

    You need to set 0 margin and padding on the body tag. Copy
    the following
    into the head of your document just before the closing head
    tag (/head>)
    Preferably it should go into an external stylesheet, but by
    the sounds of
    things you are not using this as yet.
    <style type="text/css">
    <!--
    body {
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
    background-color: White; /*change to suit whatever your
    background image is
    -->
    </style>

    Once you have added the above to your page, you need to save
    the page as a
    Template. You will be asked to create an editable region
    (which is the area
    that will be changed on each child page created from this
    template).
    The DW help files do offer some information on how to create
    Template
    pages - that may be the first stop for you :-)

  • DW8 grabs remote file when I try to edit local file

    DW8 acts like it was programmed this way, but it is not
    correct behavior. Perhaps someone can shed some light on this for
    me.
    I have the local website on a mapped network drive to a
    different server, and the remote (live) site is on another server
    only accessible via FTP. When I have the Files View drop-down set
    to Local View and the [Connects to remote host] button is NOT
    depressed, I should be able to double-click an .htm file and have
    it open up for editing. So, I do that and it then asks if I want to
    Get Dependent Files. I always say NO to this question. When the
    file opens, for some reason it has grabbed the REMOTE version from
    the live server (via FTP, I assume) without telling me it is doing
    that, and it has overwritten the local copy of the file. This is
    bad because other people in the office use different web editors,
    and they did work on that file prior to me trashing it....rats!!!
    WHY is DW8 grabbing the remote file for editing when I don't
    want it to? I want to edit the dang LOCAL file like I expect!! What
    am I doing wrong? Or is DW8 doing it wrong, and everyone in the
    world just expects it to be that way? How can I edit ONLY the local
    version of a file that exists on the remote server? I found that if
    the file is NOT on the remote server, then it simply opens the
    local file for editing as usual. I do not remember MX2004 acting
    this way because I never had that problem prior to my DW8 upgrade.
    Perhaps a clue is the dialog box that pops up asking if I
    want to "get dependent files"...the word GET is suspicious to
    me....
    HELP!!!! TIA!

    CI/CO uses the remote site as the resource for files, not the
    local site.
    The scheme is -
    1. You check out from the remote site
    2. You edit and save intermediate steps locally
    3. When editing is finished, you check in to the remote site
    This way, nobody can GET a file that you have already checked
    out until you
    check it back in.
    When you double click a local file in the File manager, if
    that file is NOT
    checked out to you, it will be checked out to you FROM THE
    REMOTE site. If
    it is checked out to you, it will open from your local site.
    > That action
    > doesn't make sense.
    Unfortunately, it makes complete sense.

  • Local testing enviro/DW8 gone all wiggy

    Hello all,
    My local testing enviro was working perfectly...like a song.
    Hell, even a full-blown chorus.
    However, something got messed up and whenever I go to preview
    in my local enviro with Dreamweaver 8 I now get this message:
    The requested URL /[filename].php was not found on this
    server.
    I could have altered something in my sites testing server
    info in DW8...can anyone help? I'm stumped!
    ...and I NEED to get on with it.
    Your help is appreciated greatly.
    Sincerely,
    wordman

    You're getting mixed up over the meaning of public_html.
    Most hosting companies that offer PHP use the Apache web server, which has a single server root folder called htdocs. XAMPP also uses Apache, so c:/xampp/htdocs is the XAMPP server root, and its URL is http://localhost/.
    Although Apache has only one server root, virtual hosts make it possible to run multiple websites on the same server. Each virtual host is located in a separate folder that acts as the site root. It's common for this folder to be called public_html. What bregent was describing was the location of the site root on your remote server. The name of the site root in your local testing setup can be whatever you decide to call it.
    When learning to use PHP, most people use a subfolder of the Apache server root because it doesn't require further configuration. However, once you're working with real sites, it's normal to set up a virtual host for each one. I create all my virtual hosts in a folder called C:/vhosts. So for example, I might have one in C:/vhosts/site1. In the virtual hosts configuration file, I designate C:/vhosts/site1 as the root folder for a virtual host called site1, which can then be accessed as http://site1/.
    The only reason I might have a folder called public_html is if I designated C:/vhosts/site1/public_html as the site root.
    I hope that's clear. Once you understand the principle of virtual hosts, the concept of the site (or server) root becomes obvious, but it can be difficult to explain. I remember it took me a while before the concept sank in.

  • DW8:  image won't display in Design View

    Folks:
    DW8 on MacOS 10.4.8 (fully updated) on Intel iMac.
    What would keep an image from displaying in DW Design View?
    What are the causes of the grey box with the superimposed "X"? Is
    there any diagnostic output that might help? Is the grey box and
    "X" substituted by DW8 for an invalid or un-drawable graphic, or is
    this done by the OS?
    The problem:
    I've got a 1912 x 1481 graphic, a geographic map, in AI that
    I'm trying to use as an ordinary web image, but DW won't display it
    in Design View. Instead all I see is a big grey box and "X". For
    test purposes, I'm starting from a new "Basic" HTML web page and
    all I'm doing is inserting this one image. I need to get this
    working so I can draw hotspots on this graphic to make it
    "clickable" .
    Here's what I've tried:
    o Triple-checking that the inserted image reference is
    correct. Yes, the image file is correctly linked. With the image
    selected, the inspector shows a tiny but recognizable miniature of
    the expected image. Further, when the page and the image are
    uploaded to the web server and I look at it via a browser, the
    expected image is _always correctly displayed.
    o Exporting the graphic "for the web" from AI as both a GIF
    and a medium-quality JPG. Neither of these are displayed in Design
    View; both are served up correctly after being uploaded
    o I found a larger JPG on a different site I'm managing. This
    always displays as expected in both DW Design View and when served
    up. I substituted the failing map JPG image. The result: A grey
    box.
    o Checking the map images: The JPG and GIF versions seem to
    be visible in all environments (image readers, browsers, etc.) I've
    checked _except_ DW8 Design View.
    o Checked on another system. I made the failing image
    available to a very helpful ACE, who performed a similar
    experiment. It worked fine for him. I used his exact HTML and
    directory structure -- and it failed for me. Grey box with "X".
    It seems to me that I've checked most of the obvious
    possibilities. Now it is time to check the less obvious ones.
    Suggestions are very welcome!
    Thanks,
    Henry

    Randy:
    Thanks for your response.
    This is a virtual memory system, so -- in theory-- it should
    accommodate anything that will fit on the hard drive, more or less,
    if I'm wiling to wait the hours (days?) it will take to swap on and
    off the disk. That assumes DW8 takes advantage of the capability.
    It may not.
    "Larger"? The JPG image I compared to is 1692 x 2160 pixels,
    but weighs slightly less, 289K bytes. I'm losing track of all my
    test images that fail, but a representative one is 1912 x 1481
    pixels and weighs 332Kb on the disk. "Roughly comparable" might be
    a better description. The point is still reasonable: DW8 does
    handle images of this size on my system.
    One issue that occurred to me recently is that I may have
    caused some grief by monkeying with the "Save for web" settings at
    the Illy export. Perhaps I asked for some configuration that's
    normal for Illy to export --or it would have warned me, I hope--
    but too strange for DW to grok. DW should complain more
    informatively than painting a gray box and "X" when that happens, I
    would think.

  • Creating Web Banners in InDesign CC

    I need to create some static web banners.
    They're a mixture of flat type/graphics, and mock photo collages with drop shadows.
    InDesign is my strongest suit. Illustrator I'm decent. My Photoshop skills are lackluster.
    Can I create them in InDesign CC, save as PDFs, open in Photoshop and Save for Web?
    Alternatively can I just export them as JPGs from InDesign?
    Is it better to create them in Illustrator?
    Or do I need to buck up and learn to do them right in Photoshop?

    Or do I need to buck up and learn to do them right in Photoshop?
    I don't see a problem with using ID—it's certainly easier to set type there than in Photoshop. Guess it depends on the amount of type vs. image effects.
    Just set the document up with web intent to the pixel dimensions you need for the banner. To get a same pixel dimension image version export to JPEG at 72ppi or to PDF and open as 72ppi.
    If you are using OSX this AppleScript might be useful, opens the ID page as a layered Photoshop image:
