Adding a document in iWeb

I am trying to add a document to a webpage with no luck. I've tried pages (also as ZIP) and pdf. I am unable to open the document in a new window. Any ideas? I've tried going through pages and saving it on a blog page...that doesn't work either. I have upgraded to iWeb 3.0.2

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. What kind of document and how are you trying to add it? If it's a pdf file create a hyperlink and use the Link to a File option in the Inspector/Link/Hyperlink pane.

I have added the Documents folder to the Dock, however when I save a document it doesn't appear in the Documents folder on the Dock, only the Documents folder in the Finder. Is this a quirk, so am I doing something wrong?

I like having my Documents folder on the Dock so I added the Documents folder from the Finder to the Dock. When I save a document to the Documents folder, the saved document appears in the Documents folder from the Finder and not in the Documents folder on the Dock. Why is this happening? And how can I change this?

Using a .pages document in iWeb

Being that I am new to iWeb and struggling a bit, can somebody help with a simple problem.
I have a Pages document that I have spent some time honing. It contains many photos in context with the text (usually fixed not floating). With the photos it is some 50Mb in size.
I have tried sending the document to iWeb as a Pages document but nothing seems to appear the other end. As a PDF file it appears but only as a link in a placeholder box. Copy/pasting to a new webpage transfers the information, but the order of the photos is totally scrambled.
Am I doing something wrong or too complicated? Is there a better way to make such a page (for example using links to existing photos in my MobileMe Gallery?
Thanks for any help.

Is there a better way to make such a page
It would be better to create it in iWeb to start with. Pages isn't intended for making websites.

Adding Pages Document which includes a table to Iweb.

Hello All,
Im creating a website on Iweb and would like to add a "pages document" which includes a table to it. Doesnt seem to be all that easy?
Would appreciate any help.
Thank you.

Don't confuse the Operating System (yosemite) with the version of Pages.
It sounds like you have Pages 5.5.3.
It only works in Pages '09, like 100+ other features only work in Pages '09 and previous.

Adding a "print" link to a document with iweb?

I want to put my resume on my web site and add a "print" button on the page that will only print my resume and not the whole page, but I can't figure out how to do it (if that's even possible on iweb)
Can anyone tell me how to do it?
Thanks!

I see this at the top:
"This question is not answered. "Helpful" answers available: 2 . "Solved" answers available: 1 .
It seems there is a "solved" answer, but gives me no link to go to it. I "searched several different options but could only find one thing even close and that was to embed the facebook page in an iweb page... not what I want.
Is there anyone that can point me in the correct direction to go to the link that gives me the "solved" answer?
Thanks.

Can't post a revised version of a downloadable document using iWeb

I've stumbled across what may be a bug in iWen '09. This info is provide as an FYI (unless someone else sees something that I'm doing wrong).
My web site, created in iWeb '09, has a few downloadable pdf documents. Everything works fine. Today I decided to revise one of those documents but without changing its name. I quickly learned that there is no permanent link between iWeb and the document on my Mac, i.e. iWeb does not recognize when the modified date of the document changes and, thus, it does not upload the revised version to the web server.
So I changed the name of the document (by simply adding the digit '2' at the end, e.g. changed it from "document.pdf" to "document2.pdf") and changed the hyperlink on the web page to match. I saved the changes and republished, but the original document did not get replaced and the new document was not uploaded (I can see the entire file structure on the web server); the only document on the server was the original. When I went back and looked at my hyperlink settings, my selection of "document2.pdf" had been replaced by "document-1.pdf". No such document exists on my Mac and no document by that name appeared magically on the server.
Next, I went to the server and manually deleted the "document.pdf" file, reset the hyperlink back to "document2.pdf" and republished again. Again, iWeb reset the hyperlink back to "document-1.pdf" but didn't upload anything (since there is no "document-1.pdf" in existence.
Lastly, I deleted the link entirely, created a new one with an entirely different label, selected the "document2.pdf" file again, and again republished. Same thing: hyperlink reset to "document-1.pdf" and no file was uploaded to the server.
I'm going to struggle with this some more and if I find a solution, I'll come back here and share it. In the meantime, if anyone else finds a solution, give a holler.

Brian:
If you want a way to be able to update the pdf file without having to use iWeb use the following method:
1 - zip/compress the pdf and upload it to your server and determine the URL to the zipped file.
2 - in iWeb create a hyperlink to an external page and user the URL to the zipped pdf as the link.
3 - whenever you want to update the pdf do so, zip it and upload to the server to replace the previous version.
This avoids having to use iWeb to change its "A file" hyperlink using a new zipped file. The Click Here link in this demo page is created that way: Add PDF . Put your cursor over it and check the URL in the Status Bar at the bottom of the window.

Error when adding a Document

When i try to add document to PM a error window appears with this msg- There is no copy of Word 2000 or later installed on the server, which is required for this feature. Please contact your Contract Management Administrator.

Depending upon the PCM version, some versions require Word to be installed on the PCM web server; others do not. Check your version installation documentation. Later versions don't require it to be installed on the server, BUT, see next comment, you may still get message.
Also, when in PCM (user interface) even with Word installed you may still receive this message if your client (user) machine is not configured with the correct ActiveX settings. Typically, adding your PCM site to "Trusted Sites" in IE resolves this, though sometimes additional changes to the Trusted Site options/settings needs to be modified.

PDF document on iWeb page - Can't get hyperlinks to work

I have dragged a .pdf file which contains working hyperlinks onto my iWeb page. The .pdf file displays properly but the hyperlinks are inactive. Is there a way to make them work? I do not wish to use an iFrame because I don't want the clickable links to open in the iFrame.

Hi Old Toad,
Thanks for the reply. I'm not sure I understand. My PDF file, which originated as a Numbers table, contains a numbered list with hyperlinks to outside sites. I exported the Numbers document as a .pdf, then dragged that onto the iWeb page. I see that if it is being converted to an image, the links won't work once placed on the iWeb page. When I tried to use the iFrame widget from your site, here: http://web.me.com/toad.hall/Demo1/Scrolling_TextBox.html, the links worked but the URLs opened right in the frame. Is there a solution that will make the links open in another window given that my file is made in a Numbers file converted to PDF? Thanks much for your help and for all the great resources on your site....

Adding a movie in iWeb using a movie template.

I wanted to add a small QuickTime movie to my web site.
I added a movie template page to the site and then dropped the movie to the box. In iWeb, I am able to click on the play button and the movie plays just fine. But when I publish the site and upload it, where the movie should be is just a Q for QuickTime.
So then I made a plain box with the enable as a hyperlink and a link to the movie. Just like I would to do a pdf file.
My question is how do I get the movie page to work? It looks better with the movie page.
Power Mac G5 Mac OS X (10.4.9)

you cant make changes to released template, if you do also, new changes wont be shown
Please refer the note 888650
and do the steps as indicated in order to cancel already released one

Adding a movie to iWeb

Hi guys
I have just started to play with iWeb '08, and all was going well until I tried to add an iMovie film. Firstly iWeb advised that the file was too large for web use and that I should convert to a suitably sized Quicktime movie. I did this through Share>Export using Quicktime> and selected Broadband - medium as the use. The file exported successfully, and opens and plays normally in Quicktime (size is 2.8MB).
However, when I try to drag into iWeb from Finder, I get this message:
"The media file “filename.mov” can’t be used because you don’t have access privileges, or because it has no content or is corrupt."
It's not corrupt, and has content (as it opens just fine in Quicktime 7.4), and I am the admin user so can't see how I can't have access privileges!
Any help gratefully received, I'd like to get this sorted so we have something to show granny next weekend!!
Cheers all
Noel

Lion has nothing to do with counters. For iWeb counters to work you must publish the website to MobileMe.
If you publish your site to a 3rd party ftp server you will need to use a 3rd party counter like StatCounter. This tutorial describes how to apply the counter via HTML snippts: 13 - Adding a Graphical StatCounter as an HTML Snippet to an iWeb Page.

Ultra Search Indexer: Adding 'alien' document types.

The way the Ultra Search indexer finds src material will not work in my situation. While I may be able to give it databases to crawl, it cannot crawl our content, so the way that you tell the indexer about 'alien' document types by adding custom code to return lists of URLs so the indexer can read the src documents won't work in my scenario.
I want to know what the Ultra Search application does special when indexing documents?
Is there a description so I can reproduce using Oracle Text and perhaps point the Ultra Search querying component against my manufactured repository and have it work?
Thanks.

Is there a way to set up finder search with additional criteria so that it isolates file extensions with .docx, .pdf, .txt all in one single search?
currently the "kind is document" also brings up .jpgs and .wavs which I dont want, (or consider documents).

Adding Google Adsense to iweb pages

In a previous posting, I was told that I could add the adsense code into my iweb website. I publish via .mac and cannot locate where the html is on my mac in order to add the code I need...anyone who can walk me through that would be a real angel!
Dave

flyfisher...
I'll give you an example of how to locate the page.html file for you to edit. Then I'll give you general directions on how to add the HTML code that you get from Google...
Example...
You have a page called "Widgets" as part of a site called "MySite" that you have made in iWeb. Then you publish it to .Mac. iWeb actually has copied all of your site files to your iDisk for you. To get at them, follow these steps...
1. Mount your iDisk to your desktop. (Look under the Go Menu>iDisk>My iDisk)
2. Double click on the iDisk icon that appears on your desktop
3. Look for a folder called "Web". Click to open.
4. You should see a folder in that called "Sites". Click to open.
5. You should see a folder in that called "iWeb". Click to open.
6. Now you should see a folder calle "MySite" (or whatever you named your site in iWeb). Click to open.
7. Find the file called "Widgets.html" (or whatever your page is named in iWeb with the .html suffix)
This is the file that you must open up in TextEdit in order to edit the HTML. Before you open the file, though, make sure that you have changed the TextEdit "Open and Save" preferences to ignore rich text format. Then open the .html file. You should see all of your code there for this particular page.
Here are directions for adding the code...
1. Decide where you want your banner and know exactly what dimensions you need.
2. Insert a text box onto your page and adjust its size to exactly your dimensions.
3. Type in some uniquely identifiable text like, "BANNERCODEHERE" without changing the font or anything else...just type it in.
4. Publish your page with iWeb.
5. Find the html file associated with your published page (either on your iDisk or in a folder depending on how you published) and open it in any text editor (like Microsoft Word, or Textedit, or anything).
6. Scroll through the html file and locate your placeholder text, e.g. "BANNERCODEHERE".
7. Replace the placeholder text with your html code and save your page. (Not save as...just save)
That's it. You should see your adsense ad banner show up where you placed the text box in iWeb.
Because iWeb republishes the html files whenever you update the your webpage, you will lose your changes and have to redo them to add your banners back everytime your page is published over.
I hope this helps.
