Adding dynamic images to your website using Dreamweaver

Hi
I've been working on a website which has been in use by public for some months now.
I recently wanted to add a simple product catelogue.   I can do this just by creating my database connection and using the recordsets.
However I wanted to add an image thumbnail to each product record.
I found the above topic in the Adobe Help 'Adding dynamic images to your website using Dreamweaver'
What I really would like to know is what exactly is put in the image_location field of the table, how is this field populated and then how to view the picture.
I have tried, as per instructions, but the picture is not showing.
I use php as I dont know coldfusion, but I'm sure the process must be pretty similar.
If anyone can shed some light then that would be really appreciated.
Many thanks liz

As most anyone else will say, so I will say; *please don't
start it
automatically!*
Playing music on a site is fine, but making it play
automatically when you
go to the site will alienate lots of people; especially those
having a quick
web surf at work or who have other music on whilst they're
working.
But back to your question; have a look at the XSPF music
player
http://musicplayer.sourceforge.net/).
It comes in different visual versions
(can modify it with a bit of Flash knowledge), allows you to
select
different songs or just leave it looping, or you can just
loop one song. And
yes, you can make it start automatically.
See
http://www.blastoffmusic.org
for an example of a christian site where it
is used (on the inside pages)

  • Can you make a e-commerce website using dreamweaver?

    can you make a e-commerce website using dreamweaver?

    Sure, if you have the requisite coding skills.  Out of the box, DW has no such module.
    Best advice, use a 3rd party shopping cart like PayPal or Asecurecart.net. Or purchase a DW e-commerce extension like Cartweaver.  Or, use Business Catalyst to build your site (includes hosting & shopping cart module).

  • New website using Dreamweaver

    Hello,
    this is my first post here, i have created a website already using joomla (http://www.aeginamaisonettes.com)
    but i would like to create a second one using dreamweaver for more styling features and possibilities, so i can have one business looking website and a more ''beautiful'' looking one.
    Which product of adobe should i use? personally i am not a big fan of flash because it's not very SEF.
    thanks!

    DW is pro-level web authoring software.  For best results, you'll need a basic knowledge of web design theory, HTML, CSS, and maybe some some client-side and server-side programming languages.  DW is only as good as the skills you bring to it. In addition, you'll probably want to get a good graphics editor like Photoshop or Fireworks to create images.

  • Dynamic Image Displays Blank When Using In Visual Studio Project

    I am trying to simply display a dynamic image in a report. I am using Crystal Reports XI Release 2.
    I have two different environments: Local via Progress where reports are called using Crystal Viewer ActiveX, and over the web where reports are called from Open Laszlo and Visual Studio project.
    The image is set to a blank image as default, and Graphic Location Forumla loads the image from the database (site.logo_location + site.logo_filename) which results in an image http:
    www.vetinfo3.com\a.jpg.
    When I run the reports locally using the ActiveX control, it works just fine and displays the image.
    When I run over the web using OpenLaszlo, it displays a blank.
    Troubleshooting
    We are using Visual Studio 2005, which is bundled with an older version of Crystal that doesn't support dynamic images.
    To address this, I loaded Crystal XI Release 2, which updated the version in Visual Studio and enabled the Graphic Location formula field on the dev machine.
    I verified the Graphic Location field was set correctly.
    This caused a Version error, so we loaded cr_net_2005_mm_mlb_x86.zip on server and specified the Version in web.Config.
    No errors now, but when I build and publish the code, the image still displays as blank.
                From Fiddler
                   GET http://www.vetinfo3.com/mdsol1/CrystalImageHandler.aspx?dynamicimage=cr_tmp_image_c5d6a923-293b-4f1e-8739-4e698f83b087.png
                   Creates C:\Documents and Settings\Curtis\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\Content.IE5\PWRUX2XW\CrystalImageHandler[1].png
                   Blank Image
    According to issues within Visual Studio, they say the fix to this is to add the <httpHandler> in web.Config, but it is already there; added when we add the viewer to the project:
    In web.Config I have some questions about this line:
        <httpHandlers>
          <add verb="GET" path="CrystalImageHandler.aspx" type="CrystalDecisions.Web.CrystalImageHandler, CrystalDecisions.Web, Version=11.5.3700.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=692fbea5521e1304"/>
        </httpHandlers>
    There are more service packs for Crystal XI Release 2:
    crXIr2sp2_net_server_install.zip
    crXIr2sp3_net_server_install.zip
    crXIr2sp4_net_server_install.zip
    I have not loaded these yet, but the readme files do not indicate they fix any dynamic image issues.
    I am out of ideas on this; does anyone have any ideas?

    What about if you take OpenLaszlo out of the picture? E.g.; use one of our samples from here;
    https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BOBJ/CrystalReportsfor.NETSDK+Samples
    I'd recommend vbnet_web_simplepreviewreport
    Also, see [this|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a0437ea8-97d2-2b10-2795-c202a76a5e80] article.

  • Tutorial Dreamweaver Cs5.5 The Missing Manual (Pg 998 - 1018) about adding dynamic data to your page

    Hallo,
    I did Tutorial: Displaying Database Info in the Missing Manual for Dreamweaver CS5.5.
    My problem is with "Editing a Recordset and Linking to a Detail Page" (which starts at pg 1002:
    I did this exercise ,over 5 times nowe, but every time with "Building the Detailed Product Page" at pg 1007, I get a bad result.
    I only get one page (the default one with productID = 1) for every link on the indexpage.
    In the adressbar (Live View) I see the right adress: for example: http://localhost/cos...hp?productID=16, but for all productID's only the detailspage for productID are shown.
    There is also a message: Notice: Use of undefined constant ‘productID’ - assumed '‘productID’' in E:\xampp\htdocs\cosmo_shop\product.php on line 34
    But I don't understand what could be wrong in this line.
    Here is the code lines 33 -48: is is about the second line:
    $varProduct_rsDetails = "32";
    if (isset($_GET[‘productID’])) {
      $varProduct_rsDetails = $_GET[‘productID’];
    mysql_select_db($database_connCosmo, $connCosmo);
    $query_rsDetails = sprintf("SELECT products.productID, products.productName, products.price, products.`description`, products.inventory, products.image, vendors.vendorName FROM products, vendors WHERE products.vendorID = vendors.vendorID AND products.productID = %s ", GetSQLValueString($varProduct_rsDetails, "int"));
    $rsDetails = mysql_query($query_rsDetails, $connCosmo) or die(mysql_error());
    $row_rsDetails = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsDetails);
    $totalRows_rsDetails = mysql_num_rows($rsDetails);
    mysql_select_db($database_connCosmo, $connCosmo);
    $query_rsCategories = "SELECT * FROM categories ORDER BY categoryName ASC";
    $rsCategories = mysql_query($query_rsCategories, $connCosmo) or die(mysql_error());
    $row_rsCategories = mysql_fetch_assoc($rsCategories);
    $totalRows_rsCategories = mysql_num_rows($rsCategories);
    ?>
    Can someone tell me what is going on here?
    Kind regards, Ans Hekerman

    I can manually type in double brackets, like this:
    $varProduct_rsDetails = "1";
    if (isset($_GET["productID"])) {
      $varProduct_rsDetails = $_GET["productID"];
    this is accepted; no syntax-error report.
    I can manually type in single brackets, like this:
    $varProduct_rsDetails = "1";
    if (isset($_GET['productID'])) {
      $varProduct_rsDetails = $_GET['productID'];
    this is also accepted; no syntax-error report.
    Dreamweaver itself made this code:
    $varProduct_rsDetails = "32";
    if (isset($_GET[‘productID’])) {
    $varProduct_rsDetails = $_GET[‘productID’];
    this was not OK; there was a syntax-error report.
    But strange enough, when I do paste this now from here, it is accepted.
    So the problem has been, that DW created code that gave a syntax error.
    I could repair it by replacing the single qoutes of DW, by typing single quotes in DW manually, or by typing in in DW manually double qoutes!!!
    So maybe everybode was right!!!
    But is was a very bad problem; maybe a "bug" of the program?
    I repeated this about 10 times before I got the solution frome this Forum.

  • How can I extract an image from a website using HtmlAgilityPack and XPath? (C#)

    Hello, everyone. I have been making a Comic Viewer in C#, and I'm stumped on how to actually load the comics. I installed HtmlAgilityPack
    and I have the XPath for the image I need, so I did some research and added the following code:
    string url = "http://www.gocomics.com/bignate/2015/04/10";
    HtmlWeb web = new HtmlWeb();
    HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = web.Load(url);
    var imgsrc = doc.DocumentNode.SelectSingleNode("//*[@id=\"zoom_content\"]/img").Attributes["src"].Value;
    pictureBox1.ImageLocation = imgsrc;
    However, it throws an unhandled exception and the imgsrc ends up null. What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Ethan,
    As far as I know, Use the //img[@src] as XPath in selectNodes will work.
    HtmlNodeCollection imgs = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//img[@src]");
    After get the image Value, you should convert it to image in order to show in
    pictureBox1 control.
    Here are the code, I have already test on my side, It works as expected.
    private List<string> retrieveImages(string address)
    System.Net.WebClient wc = new System.Net.WebClient();
    List<string> imgList = new List<string>();
    HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = new HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument();
    doc.Load(wc.OpenRead(address)); //or whatever HTML file you have
    HtmlNodeCollection imgs = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//img[@src]");
    if (imgs == null)
    return new List<string>();
    //foreach (HtmlNode imgg in imgs)
    // if (imgg.Attributes["src"] == null)
    // continue;
    HtmlAttribute src = imgs[0].Attributes["src"];
    imgList.Add(src.Value);
    //Do something with src.Value such as Get the image and save it to pictureBox
    Image img = GetImage(src.Value);
    pictureBox1.Image=img;
    return imgList;
    private Image GetImage(string url)
    System.Net.WebRequest request = System.Net.WebRequest.Create(url);
    System.Net.WebResponse response = request.GetResponse();
    System.IO.Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
    Bitmap bmp = new Bitmap(responseStream);
    responseStream.Dispose();
    return bmp;
    In addition, if you still have issues about HtmlAgilityPack, since it is a 3rd open source class.  You can consider posting it in CodePlex forum for more efficient responses.

  • Saving images from a website using macbook

    I need to save an image from a specific website when I right click on the image (control click) a menu pops up with the following options:
    Settings....
    Global settings...
    About adobe flash player
    It also does not work to simply slide the image to my desktop.

    It sounds like the image isn't simply an image, but is really Flash content.  I'd recommend taking a screenshot (see this post for details on how to do this depending on your OS) if you can't get to the original jpg/png/gif/etc.

  • Adding an image to FPM form using FPM/FLUID Editor

    One of the new features of FPM Editor (used by HCM Processes and Forms to create processes with WebDynpro forms) is a standard element called "FPM_FGL2_IMAGE". I added this element to the screen and asked to enter a source to the image. When I entered a URL to an image on my desktop and saved the form I couldn't open the form anymore (not in the editor and not on "run" mode). So, I couldn't enter the form and delete the URL that caused the problem and my form was lost.
    I have two questions regarding this issue:
    How can I delete the URL that causes this error in order to save my form and avoid building it from the beginning?
    What URL should I put in this field in order that this WD component will display the image on the FPM form?

  • Adding dynamic image?

    I have an movie clip in my Library linked to an external
    class, "ProductBubble". It is a circle that is supposed to have a
    product image in it.
    I have dragged 6 of these to the stage and named the
    instances. In my document class, I am loading an XML file and am
    assigning data to properties of my ProductBubble instances such as
    "link", "price" etc. So far so good.
    What I also need to have in each ProductBubble instance is an
    image of the product, whose path is also in the XML. In Flex, which
    I am more experienced with, I create an "image" placeholder and
    then assign the string from the XML file to its "source" property.
    How do I create an "image placeholder" for this purpose in my
    Flash movie clip? Thanks.
    P.S.: I think of creating an image in the movie clip since
    the image needs to be masked, so in a non-dynamic project my movie
    clip would have an image on a layer and a circle on the layer above
    as a mask.

    I suspect this will require a phone case. get a technician to do a webex, repro and see if this is a bug. Another option would be to download CR 2008 eval and see if it resolves the issue.
