Adding material to an iWeb page after it is published

I have published a very simple two page web page on dotmac. There is a very short introduction and then about 15 photos. (Actually, the topic is about a 100th birthday) (The terminology of the web is confusing here: one web page can contain many pages. Is there a name for the subsequent 'pages' of a web page?)
I wish to add some more photos, separately, on a completely unrelated topic to the original ones along with some additional text. I wish the new photos to be separate from the first photos and the additional text to be separate also.
I do not see how to do this and any advice would be most welcome.

(The terminology of the web is confusing here: one web page can contain
many pages. Is there a name for the subsequent 'pages' of a web page?)
David,
The appropriate terminolgy is that a 'site' can be made up of several 'pages'. In iWeb this distinction is indicated in the Site Organizer by the fact that Site names are in bold type and have a globe icon beside them. The pages within sites are indented. The icon in this case looks like a page with the top corner turned down.
I wish the new photos to be separate from the first photos
and the additional text to be separate also.
It would help if you could provide the address of your site. Judging from what you describe, though, I would suggest that you repeat what you've already done with your first photo page. Use the + button at the bottom left of the iWeb window, select the Photos page from your preferred template, replace the placeholder text with your own, drag in your photos to replace the placeholder ones, and re-publish.

Adding Java to a iWeb page

I am looking into getting an iWeb account and such to create a webpage for a business I am starting. I would be creating virtual tours that would export into Java where the viewer would be able to look into a home by clicking and dragging the pictures to move through the home, and then clicking links in the Java to move to another room in the home.
What I want to know is: Is there a way to add Java to an iWeb page? I have seen that movies and photo albums I create can be added, but what about Java?
Any help on this would be great! THANKS!

If you want to do this, then don't get an MMe account. Use an external host/server that does support java and php. If it is a business site too, it will be more worthwhile, as you get a better service - quicker upload and generally more for your money than MMe can offer. MMe was not designed for business use really, but for ease of personal use with one click publishing.

Adding audio to an iweb page

Can anyone help me by telling me how to add audio to an iweb page? I've got audio files, recordings on my computer and want to be able to publish them so others can listen.
Thanks for your help!

There are other ways to add audio to a web page. There are jukeboxes where you can list multiple tracks for playing. This demo page has some examples of flash audio players: Audio Players. Other audio options are here: More Audio.
For jukeboxes see this page in Roddy's iWeb for Musicians site: Music Players.

Contribute CS3 embeds the contents of SSI Includes into page after Edit and Publish

I have tried every possible way to figure this out but it
seems as though no one has this problem or a solution...
My Dreamweaver CS3 Template based files that have SSI
Includes placed in a "non-editable region" of a template and/or
nested templates are continually embedded, merged, or hard-coded (I
used those keywords for anyone else who might be searching for help
on this frustrating issue) into the page after it has been edited
and published with Contribute CS3 for Windows.
After many, many, hours and days rebuilding templates
(thinking that it was my code), experimenting with .htaccess
include_path variables, and cursing this application, I have come
to one conclusion - if I put my includes within "editable regions"
in the templates or the template based pages, edit and publish the
page with Contribute - then the page is saved normally, with the
includes intact and not embedded within the page. This is of course
not necessarily desirable!
I have tried using various types of include directives like:
<?php include('footer.inc'); ?>
<?php require('footer.inc'); ?>
<?php virtual(footer.php'); ?>


All Includes are merged into the template-based page after
the page has been edited and published with Contribute - if they
are in "non-editable regions"!
Please, someone point me in the right direction - if it's
calling Adobe's Help line, or posting the files or whatever. I
can't finish this project and hand off to the client until this is
resolved.

Hi,
I'd be reall interested to know if you got anywhere with this as I'm having the same problem.
The article referenced further down this thread is no longer available either.
Any suggestions or advice on this issue would be much appreciated.

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.

Symbol on iWeb page after publishing

Hello - I hope someone can help - I'm very new to iWeb ... After updating a page - the following image appears on the published site - but I can't see it on the page before publishing ?

Whatever browser you use, if an image is missing, then it will be missing with all browsers.
Anyway, this is missing :
http://jimmyhogarth.com/Jimmy_Hogarth/kid_gloves_files/bg.jpg
Should probably be this one :
http://jimmyhogarth.com/Jimmy_Hogarth/Home_files/bg.jpg
And a shape is missing :
http://jimmyhogarth.com/Jimmy_Hogarth/kid_gloves_files/shapeimage_3.jpg
So check for their presence on the server.
Not much one can do in this forum.

IWeb pages after content long and blank?

As you will see by clicking on the following link on the right hand side the scroll seems to go down for a long time after the content and its all blank...
Anyone know how to get rid of this?
http://www.brucewatt.co.nz/Bruce_Watt_Photography/Home.html

I should have mentioned… it's possible you have something "invisible" that is growing the length… I think I had that problem once, it was in the footer…. and I know I've read that other's have had that problem… not really a 'problem', however.
I'd click just below your current content… drag across the page then down to the end to check to see if anything is there. - JamesJM

Lost iweb pages after format.

I started my website when i had ilife 06.
Now i had to reformat and have loas all mt saved iweb things....
How do i connect iweb upto my .mac site again? is there a way?

Sorry, but you can not import the files back into iweb.
Without the "domain" file your starting over.
If you had backed that file up you would be ok.
In the future it's located in your account library/application support/iweb

Adding Flickr to iWeb page

Hi. I'm trying to add a link to my iWeb pages which has my Flickr photos on. How do I do it? I know how to just add an ordinary link, but I want to to add one of those links that I see on other blogs that show little thumbnails of the photos.
Hope it makes sense!

If you can get the code from Flickr, you can add it to your iWeb page after publishing.
Here are some basic instructions for making html changes after publishing in iWeb:
1. Type a placeholder in place of where you want the item to go. i.e. CODEGOESHERE or something like that. Publish your site via iWeb
2. Find your html files.
Go to iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/Sitename/Pagename.html
(If you publish to a folder, look in the folder you selected or try looking in your Sites folder of your home folder. )
There are two ways to handle accessing your iDisk.
Method 1:
Turn on local copy of your iDisk in System Prefs, with or without automatic syncing.
If you publish your site via iWeb, now the updated pages exist online but the old pages are on your local iDisk. You need to sync (automatically or manually) to get the new pages on your local iDisk (on your computer).
Then you can open the updated files, make your html changes in Text Edit or whatever program, and SYNC AGAIN (automatically or manually) to update the online version of the site to match what you have just changed on your local iDisk
Method 2:
Mount the iDisk when needed via the "Go" menu in Finder. This is the ONLINE VERSION of your iDisk, not a local copy. When you publish your site via iWeb, the changes INSTANTLY appear on the iDisk on your desktop. If you make html edits or other changes, they appear INSTANTLY online.
I recommend Method 2 - much easier!!!
3. Make the html changes.
You can open the html files generated by iWeb in any text or html editor. In TextEdit, to view the code in an HTML file, choose File > Open and select "Ignore rich text commands." Then locate the .html file (as described in step 2) and click Open.
Make your changes (i.e. replace CODEGOESGERE with your code!) and don't forget to save your changes (not Save As, just Save)!!!
4. Remember, if you make a change to a page like this post-publishing, and later re-publish, you have to make the html changes again! Set up a Find/Replace command in MassReplaceIt and you can do this very quickly. You can save your queries so you can make all of your changes with one click the next time you save.

Can't edit my iWeb page

I have BIG BIG trouble with this web page. This is the web page:
http://web.mac.com/mamafonz/iWeb/Site/Susan%20Gross%20Educational%20Workshops.ht ml
Each workshop has a contact person. But iWeb has fouled up the email address of each contact person.
For example, The December 4 workshop contact person is
Beth Lillskau <[email protected]>
(The above was copied and pasted from my iWeb page.)
On my published web page, it says that Beth's email is <shannon@ ecentral.com>
The <shannon@ ecentral..> is the email of a workshop I did a couple of weeks ago. I deleted the information since the workshop is over. Somehow iWeb seems to want to keep old emails in like they were graphics or something!
This has happened all over the page! The emails of OTHER workshop contacts are listed with the wrong person's name.
I Web is making me crazy! Help! I need to constantly update this web page and iWeb just fouls it up.
PowerPC G4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

For example, The December 4 workshop contact person
is
Beth Lillskau <[email protected]>
(The above was copied and pasted from my iWeb page.)
On my published web page, it says that Beth's email
is <shannon@ ecentral.com>
For me it is correct. Your own browser is just seeing old stuff. Clear your cache.

I'm using iweb 3.4 and trying to load audio files to my web page. everything looks good in iweb but after publishing instead of having a control bar i have a "?". does anyone know what to do?

I'm using iweb 3.4 and trying to load audio files to my web page. Everything looks good in iweb but after publishing instead of having a control bar i have a "?". Does anyone know what to do?

Where are you hosting the site, how are you uploading the files and what's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?
Adding audio files by dragging onto the web page forces the viewer to have Quicktime installed on their computer in order to be able to listen to them. Look at the audio player options on this page of Roddy's iWeb for Musicians site: Audio Players for your Music Website.

After 24 hours, my iweb pages finally posted! Is it me? Iweb? Mobileme?

After 24 hours, my iweb pages finally posted! Is it me? Iweb? Mobileme? All the above? I'd really like to know before my family kills me for tying up all of our bandwidth for the entire day again. Yes besides taking forever to upload, the process seems to have halted my entire home network.
I spent an hour on the phone with apple today (103297246) to have tech one say it was mobile me and tech two say it was iweb. I called time warner to see if they had throttled down my internet because I was uploading-LOL getting an answer there.
I may be the problem. To add my albums to iweb, I just dragged them to an album page on iweb. Here is an example:
http://web.me.com/tedcarlos/Friends/Friends/Friends.html
I am wondering if I should have clicked the iweb button to do this when I wanted to take them out of iphoto and put them in iweb? In the past doing this with movies to iDVD has been sooo time consuming I thought dragging would be easier and that iweb would scale them accordingly. Anyone know anything about this?
Another question I have is about iweb. Why does the thing offer to upload part of your iweb sites at a time, but when it actually begins the process, it appears to upload everything? Apple had no explanation for this except to say they were working on it. Could this be the source of the slowdown?
Another thought is iweb's interface with mobile me. Could it just be off? Could I just publish my sites to folder and then drag to my idisc? If so does it take everything?
Any help of thoughts on these subjects would be most appreciated. Thank's
Theo

I usually apply some common sense before calling support.
I also prepare my stuff before publishing it.
So, after some assumptions and using the calculator:
418 photos @ 0.350MB a piece = 146MB
29 movies @ 15MB a piece = 435MB
Total = 581MB = 0.5GB
That takes some time. No need for support, just patience.
Also, it's good practice not to dump everything from the camera straight on the page. Especially AVI movies do not work well in webpages.
Magic word: iMovie
Hope this helps.

IWeb shows blank page after choosing a template?

Hi all, ok I have iWeb and after selecting a template it either shows a black page or a dull grey page, I can create multiple pages and publish them to a local folder, viewing them in either safari or FF is ok and all elements can be seen.
oh and I'm not talking about the site icon, I'm talking about the pages.
I can add widgets, audio, photos etc but I can't see them until I publish the page and open in a browser.
I downloaded rapidweaver trial to see if it did a similar thing but can create and see templates in rapidweaver.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - close iWeb.
2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your User/Library/Preferences folder.
3 - go to your User/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
4 - reboot.
5 - launch iWeb and see if there's any improvement.
If that doesn't help continue:
6 - move the domain file from your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
7 - launch iWeb, create a new test site and save.
8 - go to the your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
9 - move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
10 - launch iWeb and try again.

Double sided printing, adding blank page after two different groups

Post Author: adepper
CA Forum: General
I have created a report that is structured as such:
Group 1 - Based on formula, groups by type
Group 2 - Based on formula, groups by use
Group 3 - use (pulled directly from Database)
Group 4 - ID
I have the report printing an extra page after group 3. I used this formula in the Section Expert - New Page After
remainder(pagenumber,2)=0
I also use that formula to reset the page number
What I would like to do is print a second blank page if group 2 does not start on the top of the page, meaning I do not want either group 3 or group 2 to start on the back of a page, so that this report can be placed in a binder, with dividers.
I have group 3 giving me a blank page with no issues, it is just group 2.
Any help and/or suggestions would be appreciated. If I did not give enough details, I am sorry.
Thanks!

After a lot of blood, sweat and tears, not to mention a lot of curse words directed at the computer, I was able to get this to work. Now I just have to do it for three groupings instead of two (deliver the impossible to your bosses, and they turn around and move the brass ring right out of reach again!)
In case anyone is interested in how I was able to manage this (I found many sites where people asked this question, but not one complete answer), this is what I did:
In the footer section:
Group 4 - ID (database field)
Group 3 - PrimeUse (database field)
    3a - Contains data
    3b - Contains data
    3c - New Page After, Keep Together, and Reset Page Number After are all checked. In the condition for Reset Page Number After I also have this formula:
    remainder(pagenumber,2)=0
    3d - New Page After, Keep Together, and Reset Page Number After are all checked. In the condition for New Page After I have this formula:
    remainder(pagenumber,2)=0
Group 2 - Suppressed
Group 1 - Grouped by Store Type -
    1a - Suppressed, New Page After and Keep Together are all checked.
    1b - New Page After and Keep Together are checked. In the condition for New Page After I have to following formula:
    remainder(totalpagecount,2)=1
If anyone sees any errors, or if you think you can get it so that I get another page blank, after Group 1, if the Group starts on an even numbered page, I would appreciate the help.
Thanks!
