A few Dreamweaver CS 4 questions

hello,
I have Dreamweaver CS 4 on a computer that is currently not connected to the internet. My question is: is it feasable to code on dreamweaver on this computer, or will I run into problems if I do not update it? The kind of problems I am worried about is perhaps new tags and html/css rules not being in my dreamweave because It has not been updated in a long time.
Also, If it is the case that with my current set up, coding will be a problem due to my dreamweaver information being out of date, would getting connected to the internet and getting updates indeed fix this problem? or does adobe make it so that the only way I can get support for the latest web standards, latest tags, etc, is to buy dreamweaver cs 5.5?
Thanks for the help!

The kind of problems I am worried about is perhaps new tags and html/css rules not being in my dreamweave because It has not been updated in a long time.
Adobe offers a free extension to add HTML5 (and other) code hinting to CS4.

There's no way of knowing if CS5.5 would improve anything for you without knowing the kind of web work you do.
I upgraded from CS4 to CS5 primarily to avoid a PITA (select root folder) bug in CS4 which kept tripping me up (has never been patched by Adobe in CS4 but is fixed in CS5+)

  • A few simple (?) dimension questions...

    Hi, I have a few really simple dimension questions that I just can't figure out in OWB (which I'm just now starting to play with):
    1) I'm trying to create a dimension that has no levels or any hierarchy. In the BI tool, I just want this dimension to act as a "pick list" for one of 8 values (DW data snapshot dates for the last 8 weeks...) Users won't summarize by this dimension, or ever have more than 1 week selected at a time. How can I set this type of dimension up?
    2) Somewhat related to #1 - just to get something working, I set up a "time in weeks" dimension not as a time dimension, just as a normal user dimension. I then added a single "weeks" level with a surrogate key (using "key" instead of "id"), short desc (as the business key), and long description. Set up a mapping from my source table, everything worked fine. The strange thing I've notcied is that the relational table produced has both a "week_key" column and a "dimension_key" column. How can I get rid of the "dimension_key" column - its just an exact duplicate of the lowest level key column? Note - we will have a dimension table with over 1.3 BILLION rows in our warehouse - so duplicating this column does add a significant amount of overhead - this isn't just an academic problem.
    3) related to building this "test" dimension - my source table has 8 records in it. Whenever I run the ETL to populate the dimension table, the surrogate keys end up being key values 9 - 16 instead of 1 - 8. Note this is even if I reset the sequence number to 1 before I start, etc. My understanding is that Oracle uses a variable width number field when storing data - so having this dimension with values 1-8 instead of 9-16 saves approx a byte for every fact table record (which we're predicting will be in the range of 20 - 50 BILLION rows). How can I force the dimension to start numbering at 1?
    Thanks in advance,
    Scott

    Hi
    Reg #2, I do not think we can get rid of the "dimension key". It looks like OWB is creating this column as a default Primary Key and hence is not possible to remove this. May be if we build the base Table for dimension as a normal relational table, which will allow us to define our own keys, and then build the "Dimension" using AWM on this relation table may resolve the issue of having duplicate primary keys. Its only a thougt, have not tested though.

  • Need search & replace help dreamweaver 2006 (complicated question)

    Hello:
    if somebody could help with this I'd really appreciate it
    ....I have a site with tons of two word dir names word1_word2 a few are 3 word - there are a few images with this also (same as the dir names)
    I generate the site with the dir names in the metatage (discription and keywords) and at various places in the pages
    after building it I search and replace _ to space with dreamweaver (option not in any tag) so this kills the _ where ever it's visable but leaves it in img src and alt tags ect but most important leaves in metas where it looks like heck and I don't wan't it
    I've tired Everything in dreamweaver to search it out of metas and can't - I can live with it in alt img ect but rather not
    basic question"
    (is there a regex to leave _ only in hrefs & css styles and replace with space Everywhere else - if not remove in all visable text & metatags)
    beter yet can I do this with options in dreamweaver search & replace - 2 steps is ok - I killed the in visable text - I could live with them in alt & link titles but not in metatags (description and keywords)
    please Keep in mind I need it in href's (not the visable text though)
    thanks,
    MEF

    Just so I get this straight,  you want to change this:
    http://example.com/Annette_O_Toole/index.html
    to this:
    http://example.com/Annette O Toole/index.html
    Using spaces instead of underscores?  That is not a good thing.  You should  never use spaces or special characters in folder or filenames.  Ok?
    I hope this answers your question.  If not, post back with an example of what you're trying to change.

  • Few Hyperion Web Analysis questions

    Hi All,
    We are using Web Analysis 11.1.2 and i am a newbie to it. I have few questions regarding reports which may be of very basic level;
    Q1. If we right click on a report then we have an option of "Edit data" through which we can enter data directly into planning. My question is that how can i disable this option for all users as i don't want them to manipulate any data through a report?
    Q2. As we have made a report in which we have used the dimension members that are used in Hyperion planning. The name of member in Hyperion planning for example is ABC and i want to change the name to XYZ in Hyperion Web analysis report. How is that possible?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

    Q1 depends on the level of provisioning and or useraccess permissions on essbase/olap level.
    Use Shared Services in combination with EAConsole to restrict this.
    Q@. In plain/ native essbase you can add aliases to the member. Normally you do not edit planning members in essbase (since you have to change them in planning it self) But perhaps you can. You can give it a try in a testenvironment.

  • A few Video Out related questions (yes I searched)

    Hello there! I've been searching the net and these forums for awhile now and didn't find answers to these specific questions. Any help would be appreciated.
    Question 1:
    I (now) know that the iPod Classic is extremely picky in regard to getting video signals to the TV. I know that Apple requires that I purchase its cords and/or its Apple Universal Dock (not to be mistaken with the iPod Universal Dock, which is discontinued) in order to enable output to my TV. However, I have read in a few other places that the iPod Universal Dock will work with the iPod Classic. Is this true? If I plug my iPod Classic into the iPod Universal Dock will I be able to use a non-Apple cord that connects from the headphone jack in the dock to AV cables (Yellow and White) on the TV? Also, will the S-Video on the iPod Universal Dock work with my iPod Classic? I really don't feel like going out and spending another $100 on the new Apple dock and cords.
    Question 2:
    In regard to the iPod Universal Dock, I have noticed that there are three part numbers: MA045G/A, MA045G/B, and MA045G/C. Is there any significant difference between these? Will all (or none) of them work with my iPod Classic?
    Any other tips on how to get around having to spend another $100?
    Any help is great. Thanks!

    The info provided by the link <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300233> is incompatible with users' answers posted above.
    I am getting ready to try a 3rd-party S-Video to composite cable to play video from my new 80G iPod classic via an older Universal Dock (w/S-Video out) to a TV system. Will report back on results.

  • A few protools to logic questions.

    Hello.
    long time protools user and returning logic user (version 3.x was the last interaction)
    am really enjoying the sequencing aspects to logic but am becoming increasingly frustrated by what seems to be a few really simple features but constantly used features of protools.
    hopefully someone might be able to point me in the right direction.
    they all have to do with audio editing.
    1) selection snapping to timeline. i have found the marquee tool, but how do then snap the playhead to where i want to place the copied selection?
    2) duplicating a region on the time line creates a second instance of the region, however its the same instance.. thus any editing will occur to all regions. is there was a way to default this to automatically create new regions (as in protools, well in protools it creates a new region once edited).
    3) another question on snapping.. in the main timeline you can select snap to bar.. but is there way to snap to smaller transients than a whole bar? i know you can set that in piano roll.. but what about for either the sample editor or the main timeline?
    these are all key features which are used constantly in protools.. and before i get a barrage of responses, i know logic isnt protools.. but some of these features i have mentioned are present across most if not all audio editing applications (cubase, live and even fruity loops)
    i would really like to cross back to logic, but i need to be able to perform the same basic tasks..
    help me obiwan..
    tom

    Not sure about question 1, mainly because I have always just manually moved regions where I wanted them. But because of the answer to question #3, it's never been an issue for me.
    If you click and hold on the "Snap" menu (upper right hand corner of the Arrange page), you'll see a drop down list of options, which include, bar, beat, division, ticks, frames, etc... this helps limit where the region will land while dragging. I personally leave it set to "smart", which, depending on zoom level, allows me to place regions exactly where I want, very quickly.
    My "nudge" key commands also help in certain circumstances.
    As far as duplicating a region, yes, you are merely copying the region, but it's still referencing the same audio file, so any edits done on one will affect all copies.
    After option/dragging a region, if you want to edit it, and ONLY that particular copy, simply go under the audio menu, and select "Convert Regions to New Audio Files". This can be assigned a key command, so it can be a pretty instantaneous thing. Now it's a separate audio file, and any edits done to it won't happen on the original.
    Hope some of that helps...

  • A Few Bootcamp Vista Installation Questions

    Hello, Apple forums,
    I am will be, hopefully within the next week, installing my new Vista Ultimate on my 15 inch aluminum MBP. I would like, if it is not a problem, a few questions answered before I proceed.
    1. Is using Bootcamp the best way to install Windows? I know there are other options, and I have heard people have had technical problems with Bootcamp.
    2. When I install Windows, is my MBP still under warranty?
    3. When I install Windows, will it, in any way, affect my usage of OS 10?
    4. Will I be able to install programs, such as Word, Norton, etc. onto Windows?
    5. Will all of the physical functions, such as the Trackpad, iSight, and DVD port still function?
    6. How do I switch between OS's, or for that manner, can I do it without restarting the MBP?
    Thanks you for taking the time to answer. I am pretty sure I know the correct answers to most of these questions, but I just want to make sure.

    Hi Mechafire,
    back from work (for which I had to leave this morning...
    3. When partitioning the harddisk for BootCamp Windows the space for the Windows partition is taken from the OSX partition, thus decreasing the size of it.
    Usually this poses no problem for OSX, but OSX can become erratic when the amount of free space on its partition drops below 10% of the partition size.
    That's what I meant with 'problem'
    4. Personally I haven't had any problem with installing programs on BootCamp Windows.
    However there seems to be some very specific programs (usually protected with hardware-dongles) that do not run perfectly.
    In the past AutoCAD was such one, but I'm not sure if this is still so.
    5. As said, I don't have a MBP so I don't have first-hand experiences with it.
    When you look around the BootCamp Forum you will find some posts which mentions problems with the trackpad in Windows.
    7. I use BootCamp as well as Parallels with Windows on my Mac and I can say that I never had any problem with them.
    BootCamp is the way to go when you know you don't need OSX at the time, while Parallels (and the VM apps) are quite handy when you are in OSX and just want/need to run a Windows program since you don't have to reboot the Mac.
    8. Right now Windows 7 is not supported by BootCamp and also is still in Beta.
    At the time of release of Windows 7 there will be most likely a BootCamp update that supports Windows 7.
    Nonetheless there are some people round here that are using the Public Beta of Windows 7 on their Macs right now with the Vista Drivers that are on the OSX Leopard DVD.
    Personally I would say wait for Windows 7 if you can , otherwise Vista is the next best choice.

  • A few short SD blocking questions...

    Hi all,
    i got a few questions which the most of you probably can answer rather easily:
    1. Is it possible in SD (5.0) to register that a customer has to be blocked on a future date?
    2. Is it possible in SD to block a customer only for ordering (read: not allowing for new orders, thus new open credits) and not for all other functions (so that the customer still is available for corrections like credit memos,etc.)?
    3. Is it possible to block vendors in batch (mass block)?
    Two more questions which are less important:
    4. My client doesnt do any archiving. The consequence of this is that there exist many customers in the system that are inactive. Is there a way to hide these customers (same for vendors) without deleting them or archiving them? Maybe i can give these customers the status "inactive"?
    5. Is it possible to give comment to all the changes that are in the customer master records so that an employee always can find back why certain customer information is modified?
    I really hope you guys can help me out in these question!
    Cheers,
    Wander

    Hi Wander,
    1. Changes to customer data are not time or date dependent. So it is not now possible to block customers on a future date.
    2. See transaction XD02 go to Extras -> Blocking data (or alternatively use transaction VD05) The blocking type determines what the customer is and is not allowed to do.
    3. Transaction MASS would spring to mind. field to change depends on the blocking type you want to set.
    4. I know you can mark a customer for deletion. I don't know what this does to the standard search helps.
    5. I guess a text field could help for this. But to my knowledge there is no standard solution for this.
    regards,
    Pim

  • A few basic iPhoto 11 questions

    I just updated my iMac from Tiger (I know...) to Mavericks and it's great, but there's a few things in iPhoto that are way different from my old version- wondering if I can re-apply these.
    1) I used to be able to label photos by hovering over the photo and a dialogue box would appear, then once I titled it the title would stay under the photo. I can title photos now by going to info and titling it but when I'm in album view I can't see the titles whereas I used to.  I looked in preferences and everything but can't change it, is there a way to do this?
    2) This one is basic and stupid- in my old version just 1 click would enlarge the photo from album view vs highlighting it and needing to double click to enlarge.  Any way to revert this back to the old way? 
    I know these are really stupid questions but it's just conveniences I got used to that would be nice to have back.

    1. View Menu -> Select 'Titles'
    2. Tap the Space Bar.

  • A Few Little Time Machine Questions

    I just got a 1TB External Drive from Western Digital (My Book Studio Edition.) I just used Time Machine on my Mac Book Pro and now all my files are backed up. But I have a few questions:
    1. Does this mean that I don't have to manually drop and drag files into the External Drive?
    2. Does this mean I can delete files off of my computer and retrieve them later from my External Drive? (If this seems like a dumb question, it's rooted in my misunderstanding of Time Machine - I'm not sure if it temporarily backs things up, backs things up only when you command it to, or backs things up permanently.)
    Thank you!

    crimson_ghost,
    Your questions appear to be answered, but I'll chime in too with some (perhaps) additional information...
    Time Machine is mainly a backup and recovery tool. It makes a comprehensive backup of your entire installation, including all installed applications and all user data. The intention is that you will be able to completely recover from any potential disaster, such as a total failure of your internal hard drive.
    Each backup that Time Machine makes is a complete "snapshot" of your installation at the time of the backup, complete with each and every file on your computer. Time Machine is able to make this "complete" backup each time it runs- without consuming much, if any, additional disk space on the backup drive- by using an advanced file system feature called "multi-linked files." In this scheme, the data for a given file is only copied once to the backup drive, but multiple "hard links" that point to that data can be created. In effect, it is like having multiple phone numbers, all of which ring to the same phone. Each backup will contain one of these "hard links" that points to the data associated with a given file that has not changed since the last backup. If the file is new or has changed, the new data is copied to the backup, and a new string of hard links will be created. Since each additional hard link consumes almost zero space, many, many backups can be made without using much disk space.
    An additional benefit of this Time Machine scheme is that we are able to "go back in time" to retrieve a file that may have been deleted from the "source," and there is a truly innovative interface for doing so. Some of the OS X and iLife applications even have "Time Machine awareness" built in, and the interface can be accessed from within those apps. Pretty cool.
    However, this does not mean that Time Machine can be used as an "archive" tool. It can not be used in this manner, and you should not depend on using it this way! Especially if Time Machine is used in its "default" mode, where backups are made every hour, part of its routine is to regularly "thin" the backups. This process involves the removal of old backups that do not conform to the "one backup a day for the past week," "one backup a week until disk is full" rule. At some point, Time Machine will also begin to "expire" the very oldest backups, then remove them to make room for new ones. If you attempt to use Time Machine for "archival" storage of files that have been removed from the source (your installation), you will ultimately lose them.
    Now, given the way Time Machine works, it will eventually consume all- or close to all- of the disk space given to it. So it makes sense to limit what we allow it to use. How much is appropriate, and how do we limit what it can use? That's easy enough to answer...
    Time Machine needs at least twice the amount of space necessary for the initial backup. I say "at least," because it will work best when given closer to 3 times the amount of space needed. If your installation of OS X, including all your user data and applications, amounts to 100 GBs for example, you'll need to give Time Machine at least 200 GBs, and my recommendation would be more like 300 GBs. If you do not give it at least this much space, your backups will eventually fail. Time Machine first makes a new backup when it runs, and then goes about checking to see what can be deleted from the older backups. Because of this, it must always have plenty of "headroom."
    Giving Time Machine more than the stated "3X" figure, though, is wasteful of precious disk space that could be used in more beneficial ways. For instance, by using that disk space for "archival" purposes
    In order to limit what we give to Time Machine, it is necessary to partition the external drive. Multiple logical volumes can be created, and we can size these volumes to meet the needs of Time Machine. For various reasons (I could explain, if needed), I always recommend that the first partition be used for Time machine backups. If you do not know how to use Disk Utility to partition your external drive, just ask.

  • WLC to use Management Interface & Few more getting started Questions

    Hello,
    I'm yet to implement the Wireless LAN in one of our client's corporate office. There 40 x 1130AG LWAPP AP's and 4404 WLC with ACS 4.x for the Authentication of the Wireless Clients who is trying to access the LAN.
    For the WLC to connect to the Dual Core Switch, i need to use only one Management Interface with Distribution System port 1 being the Primary and mapping the DS Port 2 as the Backup port for the Management Interface. Is this Right? or do i have configure Dynamic Interfaces as well. Is management interface for accessing / management and configuration only? Management Interface will communicate with ACS for AAA and AP's who would like to associate with the WLC, is this Right?
    Note: WLC, AP's, Wireless Clients & AP's are in the same IP Subnet.
    Few other question of WLAN's so it helps me during implementation -
    • Can I use the 802.1x Authentication application found in the Windows XP for the Wireless Interface; instead of Cisco Client Application. For this; I have to configure the WLC / Wireless Client to use EAP algorithm; is this Right?
    • With the help of RRM, the channel interference between multiple AP's (3 - 4 AP's) in the same area is controlled by the WLC by changing the Channels used by the AP which is not same on all the AP's. Is this right?
    • How many Client Users will connect per Channels. 802.11 a / g will provide 11 Channels, is this Right?.
    • I'm trying to set in the WLC to limit the Client connections per AP to 25, can this be achieved?
    Please, can anyone help me in calrifying the above points.
    Regards,
    Keshava Raju

    Many Thanks Mr. Dennis for your help & Clarification.
    With ref to your reply point no# 1. I have actually planned to connect one Gig port of the controller to each of the Dual Cisco Core Switch setup. Can i use all 4 Controller Interfaces configured as LAG and Port 1 & 2 connecting to Core Switch 01 and Port 3 & 4 connecting to Core Switch 02?
    I have Final two more questions, Request you to help me calrifying this?
    • I'm willing to configure Multicast communication between the WLC & AP's. For this configuration is it necessary to Connect the WLC in a different VLAN than the VLAN of the AP's. Is it necessary that I have to set the controller to LWAPP Layer 3 mode to support the Multicast communication?
    • Though I do not have implementation experience of the WLAN. My understanding of the Interface settings on the WLC - is I will have to configure one Management Interface for in-band management. Do I have to configure AP-Manager Interface (to support Multicast communication) and to make the WLC to communicate with ACS for Client Authentication. All of the Wireless Devices including the ACS are in one VLAN / IP Subnet, is only one Management Interface is enough for communicating with AP's (with Multicast) and communicating with ACS for forwarding the Authentication messages between the ACS & Wireless Clients?

  • A few wide and varied questions about Linux in general

    I've had a few "I wonder..." things noodling in the back of my head for a while now about the Linux kernel, and how Linux works in general. Yes, I could just install LFS to answer them, but I like knowing what I'm doing before I do it and asking is typically an awesome way to do that
    So, here are a bunch of questions. Answer what you know, speculate on what you think. Feel free to answer just one or all of them.
    Also, if you feel inspired from these questions or just this thread's very existance and want to ask questions of your own please do!
    Compilation questions
    When I compiled Openbox recently, it linked such that I can't move it out of my home folder, and additionally, when I run /usr/bin/openbox, I end up executing /Users/dav7/openbox/openbox-3.4.7.2/openbox/.libs/lt-openbox - why is this, and how can I make openbox... not do the weirdness it's currently doing?
    Library questions
    - In Arch's initramfs image, klibc is named "klibc-EcjIkSXUojTZn3VHC4IxoFgq9Kg.so", at least it was at my last check. Why is this? Why/how do other programs link with this crazily named copy of klibc? How does library linking work actually? How did the linker know to use this klibc name and not something else?
    - How do I specify that I want to link against a specific library, for example if I want to link a program against klibc when I have glibc installed? Do I have to create a chroot jail to convince the linker to see only the library I want it to?
    - Can I build the Kdrive X server with klibc, or do I need ulibc or glibc? How much (read: what "class" or category of programs) will klibc link against without problems, especially in the X area? Will I need ulibc to build anything X-based?

    Er, I'm pretty sure I'm not an expert, so my "answers" will be almost surely incomplete/incorrect.
    1) I suppose by "compiling openbox" you mean the standard "./configure; make; make install" procedure. Well, the "./configure" step lets you choose various paths related to the final product. Crunch through "./configure --help". "./configure" script creates/modifies all the makefiles, so that they reflect your choices of paths, and that's what's going to be used.
    2) - dynamic linking is manages by /sbin/ldconfig - so have a look at 'man ldconfig'. that's how linker knows what's available.
    - with klibc, I think you need to have the whole toolchain (binutils, gcc, klibc) adapted to klibc available to compile against klibc. Then it's a matter of compiling with those tools. I think it's impossible to use the standard gcc and binutils to compile against klibc.
    - I have no idea about what compiles against klibc. I think not too much, and with heavy patching. I'm pretty sure you can compile some version of x server against uclibc (that's what openwrt does). Have a look at some small distros (slitaz, dsl) on how are they doing it.

  • Photoshop CS3 to Dreamweaver CS3 CSS question

    Hi all,
    I am sorry if this is allready dicussed a couple of times.I did a search and just could not find it. When I export a site from Photoshop CS3 to DIV (generate CSS by ID) it is aligned to the left and all DIV's have a specific position on the page. How can I get my site to center in Dreamweaver CS3 without having to adjust al separate DIV's?
    For Example: When I export from Photoshop all slices are exported as folowed.
    #Table_01 {
    position:absolute;
    left:auto;
    top:0px;
    width:832px;
    height:562px;
    right: auto;
    #test-13 {
    position:absolute;
    left:275px;
    top:26px;
    width:9px;
    height:189px;
    #test-14 {
    position:absolute;
    left:284px;
    top:26px;
    width:128px;
    height:98px;
    I know how to make a DIV center (with Margin auto left and right) but I do not know how to center all DIV's at once.
    I hope you are willing to help me with this. In case you have more questions let me know.

    The answer is to not let Photoshop write either your HTML or your CSS for you.  What you show is a disaster waiting to happen, really, and is characteristic of the kind of mess produced by any wizard that writes HTML based on a graphic layout.  Use your graphics editors to produce your graphics.  Build your page in DW.  It's a much better way to go.
    I know how to make a DIV center (with Margin auto left and right) but I do not know how to center all DIV's at once.
    I hope you are willing to help me with this. In case you have more questions let me know.
    Leaving your page with all absolutely positioned elements is really asking for trouble, but here's how to make them all center at once -
    Change this -
    </head>
    to this -
    <style type="text/css">
    #wrapper { width:760px; margin:0 auto;position:relative; }
    /* 760px will display on an 800px screen maximized browser window without */
    /* horizontal scrollbars. Change as needed */
    </style>
    </head>
    change this -
    <body ...>
    (the ellipsis represents any other attributes that might be mentioned in the body tag, and SHOULD NOT BE INCLUDED EXPLICITLY!)
    to this -
    <body ...>
    <div id="wrapper">
    and this -
    </body>

  • Dreamweaver CS3 trial question

    First and only to make sure I don't come out looking totally
    stupid, is the Dreamweaver CS3 compatible with Vista?
    If so, why can I NOT use it? I click the I want to try for 30
    days and it gives me an error.
    I also tried the Photoshop CS3 trial a few months ago and it
    did the same thing and nothing I did could bring it up so I
    uninstalled it.
    what the hell?
    Thanks
    George

    I don't even have Vista and I'm getting the same problem. I
    have Windows XP Home Edition and I recently rebooted my PC yet
    before the reboot all Adobe products had always worked fine. Now I
    just get an error message saying 'A problem was encountered while
    trying to load the trial period for Adobe CS3' and then tries to
    force me to enter a serial code which I don't have. Is there no fix
    because I know that plenty of others are having the same
    problem.

  • IWeb to Dreamweaver II: JS Question

    I'm using Dreamweaver to publish a website created in iWeb to a Linux server and am having a problem with some JavaScript-driven audio files.
    Consider the following code:
    <div id="id9" style="height: 68px; left: 161px; position: absolute; top: 380px; width: 144px; z-index: 1; " class="style_SkipStroke_2">
                  <div class="text-content graphic_textbox_layout_style_default_External_144_68" style="padding: 0px; ">
                    <div class="graphic_textbox_layout_style_default">
                      <p style="padding-top: 0pt; " class="Free_Form">E Morio<br /></p>
                      <p class="Free_Form">Traditional<br /></p>
                      <p style="padding-bottom: 0pt; " class="Free_Form">Lyrics By Gilberto Gil</p>
                    </div>
                  </div>
                </div>
                <div style="height: 120px; left: 45px; position: absolute; top: 532px; width: 102px; z-index: 1; ">
                  <img style="height: 104px; width: 102px; " src="Music_files/sambatuquecoverart_3.jpg" />
                  <script type="text/javascript"><!--
    writeMovie4();
    --></script>
                </div>
    This is the relevant code from the associated JS file:
    function writeMovie3()
    {detectBrowser();if(windowsInternetExplorer)
    {document.write('<object id="id8" classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" width="102" height="16"><param name="src" value="Media/06%20E%20Morio.mov" /><param name="controller" value="true" /><param name="autoplay" value="false" /><param name="scale" value="tofit" /><param name="volume" value="100" /><param name="loop" value="false" /></object>');}
    else if(isiPhone)
    {document.write('<object id="id8" type="video/quicktime" width="102" height="16"><param name="src" value="Media/06%20E%20Morio.mov"/><param name="controller" value="true"/><param name="scale" value="tofit"/></object>');}
    else
    {document.write('<object id="id8" type="video/quicktime" width="102" height="16" data="Media/06%20E%20Morio.mov"><param name="src" value="Media/06%20E%20Morio.mov"/><param name="controller" value="true"/><param name="autoplay" value="false"/><param name="scale" value="tofit"/><param name="volume" value="100"/><param name="loop" value="false"/></object>');}}
    In a folder named Media is the file 06 E Morio.mov.
    When I view the page Music.html locally, I see the standard graphic that's displayed with audio files - a horizontal, metallic-colored thing with a button you can push to start the audio and a little button that slowly moves to the right until the song is finished. But when I view the page online, I don't see anything.
    I tried renaming the audio file to 06_E_Morio.mov (replacing spaces with underscores), then replaced every instance of %20 in the JS file code with an underscore as well. But that killed it locally.
    I had a lot of problems with links that included capital letters and therefore didn't match with images or JS files that were all lower case. Thus, I'm guessing this problem has to do with either some value that should or should not have a capital letter and/or a space issue - either I need to replace %20 with underscores, or I need to insert underscores in the names of the audio files, etc.
    Can anyone offer any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    Wow, I wasn't expecting nearly so simple a solution. I can't believe that's the first time I've ever inserted an audio file. And it's so much simpler than the JavaScript method, I wonder why iWeb uses JS in the first place.
    However, I still have one problem. I don't want any of the audio files to play when the page loads. According to the instructions, the solution is to set AutoPlay to False. So I did that, but it doesn't work. I change False to false (lower case), then changed AutoPlaly to autoplay, but nothing works.
    Do you have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
    <embed src="/Media/06 E Morio.mov?autoplay=false" width="100" height="32"></embed>
    Also, I should have mentioned that the web page created in iWeb is written in XML, though I don't know if that has any bearing on my question.
    Thanks.
