Attaching a Lightbox in Dreamweaver

Hello. I am creating a web site in Dreamweaver and I am trying to the gallery portion of the site using Lightbox. However, the lightbox is created and is ready to go, I just don't know how to attach it to my already layed out page. How do I go about doing this? Is there a video? I've looked all over for one on YouTube and have not found one.

I suggest you look up
http://webdesign.tutsplus.com/tutorials/htmlcss-tutorials/super-simple-lightbox-with-css-a nd-jquery/
for a quick tutorial on creati ng alightbox
You will have to use some js to append the lightbox div dynamically into your page and then hide it using some css

Lightbox gallery dreamweaver cs6

Hello, I m tried to insert a picture gallery with dreamweaver cs6 using the widget lightboxgallery, the first problem is that the buttons,next, previous ... are not displayed, the second problem happens when I want to insert a second " lightbox gallery" in the same page.
thank you for helping me

Many people have reported problems with the Lightbox widget. I highly recommend using FancyBox2 instead of that widget. To see a demonstration, copy & paste this code into a new, blank document. SaveAs test.html and preview in browsers.

lightbox

In addition to the missing doc type declaration, you have other code errors which will confound newer browsers. See below for details.

Attaching dtstyles.css in Dreamweaver CC

In CS6 I could just right click properties and then attach the design-time file. Doesn't work that way in CC. Can someone help?

Go to the CSS Designer panel and click the plus button as in

Image problem in Dreamweaver Please Help!

I have attached an image in dreamweaver and it looks fine when I preview it in the browser but when it put it on the hosting site it is not there. What should I do?

Hi all, i've being talking with Murray regarding an issue that I am having on posting images online with Dreamweaver (please find below), if anyone can help please write.
Murray in answering your question: Yes all images are RGB. let me know if there is anyother thing that I should check.
Thanks,
Gabriel
Just duplicate the information in a new thread on the public Dreamweaver General Discussion forum.
Also, are your images RGB or CMYK? If the latter then they won't show on the web. They must be in RGB color space to show....
Murray
Hi Murray,
Thanks for answering. Yes I have no problem on posting it to the public, it is just that I've being posting this problem in other forums and not getting any answer so I thought that sending a private message could be more efficient. How should I redirect my question to the public forum? just copy my question and post as a new threat?
Regarding my problem I am apparantly doing everything correct. I first created an image folder on my local "website" folder and I put all images there (lower case, single word, jpags and gif). So I went to Insert->Rollover Image and place the images. Then I saved the document and locally tested (pressing F12) and everything was working great. Next I select the document and Site->Put. I reloaded my IE and the images didn't show up. I went back to dreamweaver and manually selected each image that I insert and one by one I upload to the website. I checked the remote server and they are all there on the correct location, but they still dono't appear on my website.
I am researching this problem for more than 5 days and I am really considring to built my website with other tool (rather than Dreamweaver) as I just can't figure it out why in earth these images don't display).
Thanks,
gabriel
Gabriel, do you feel comfortable posting this to the public forum? That's the right way to use it. Let everyone try to help you. When you post there, please be sure to give enough information for someone to try to answer. If a process is failing for you, describe each step in the process with enough detail to allow someone to recreate that process.
Looking at the code on your projects page I can only think that your images are not being uploaded to the correct location. Do you SEE those images on the remote site?
Anyhow, you can add the answer to this to your post on the public forum....
Murray
Hi Murray, I found you in some forums re: Dreamweaver, I hope you can help me. I am trying desperately for the last 6 days upload images on my website. I have checked the sources/paths 1000 times and everything match, I really don't know why I can't see a single image online. The website is www.gabriel.kochece.com, if you go to projects all these links are suppose to be images...
Thanks in advance,
gabriel

Editingutils.js error message dreamweaver cs4

I keep getting this the attached error message using Dreamweaver CS4, spry framework utilizing a number of spry widgets.
CollapsiblePanels
Spry Forms Widgets
I have made changes to the span id names associated with each of the form widgets.
I've reviewed this link http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/401/kb401257.html
However the files described do not contain the following lines and changes
Edit SpryTabbedPanelsDesignTime.js and make the following changes:
THIS DOES NOT EXIST IN THE FILE IN CS4
Go to line 188. Change:
eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]);
to:
try { eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]); } catch(e) { opts = null; }
Save the file.
Edit SpryCollapsiblePanelDesignTime.js and make the following changes:
THIS DOES NOT EXIST IN THE FILE IN CS4
Go to line 188. Change:
eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]);
to:
try { eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]); } catch(e) { opts = null; }
Save the file.
Launch Dreamweaver and verify that you can now load your file.
Any other solutions?

I have resolved the editingutils.js by breaking up the forms, but it is not the solution I'm really looking for.
Each of the 6 forms on seperate pages are 450 lines of code.
Form sample.
http://irexs.com/betatest001/can/listCANCommercial.cfmhttp://www.irexs.com/betatest001/
I want to be able to have multiple forms on one page, nested in spry collapsible panels.
I'm using DW CS4 and Coldfusion 8 server, forms utilize SPRY form fields (not cfforms).
In order to reslove the editingutils.js I had to break up the forms, but have considered an alternate solution.
In each panel the forms are nested via cfinculdes; structure as follows.
<div col panel>
     <div col panel content>
          <form spry fields>
               <cfincludes location form file>
               <cfincludes details form file>
          <form end>
     <dev col panel content ent>
<div col panel end>
WHAT I WANT TO ACCOMPLISH is as follows.
Sample page
http://irexs.com/betatest001/can/listCAN.cfm
Forms are to be inserted in the panel content section as described above.
ISSUES ARE:
I have limited JavaScript knowledge.
For the forms to work i require the the panels in closed state at page load: This is done.
ON FORM SUBMIT, I need the panel to stay OPEN, when client side or server side submit requires correction to the form.
What happens now is the page refreshes and the panel closes: the default state.
SOLUTION DESIRED, is to have the selected panel to stay open and the input information to remain when form is submitted.
Thanks for any help.

Lightbox won't display images

I am using lightbox in dreamweaver and am having a hard time getting the pictures to display on the website. When you click on the image on the website, there is a continuous loading screen for the image. I thought I was having a hard time adjusting the right size of the image, but when I click on live view in dreamweaver, they show correctly. Why does it work in my live view, but not actual website? Am I not connecting it correctly?

A couple of my images won't display. I am cropping to make them fit in Photoshop. Is there a way I am saving or cropping them wrong? Thank you!

Help with Dreamweaver Rollovers and Light Box ???

i am having trouble with lightbox and dreamweaver rollovers.
some are working and some are not,
see
http://www.opiesnowdesigns.com/EltonLeonard/gallery.html
(the last one in the second row, there are 3 in the third row and 2 in the last row)
i tried this but not all rollovers are working...
This is commonly caused by a conflict between scripts. Check your body tag and look for an onload attribute. Example:
<body onload="MM_preloadImages(‘/images/menu_on.gif’)…;">
A quick fix to this problem is to append the initLightbox() to the onload attribute as so:
<body onload="MM_preloadImages(‘/images/menu_on.gif’)…;initLightbox()">
is this a problem with the rollovers or the javascripts...
can any one help?
thank you
O

THANK YOU!!!!
you are AMAZING!
got them all working.
http://www.opiesnowdesigns.com/EltonLeonard/gallery.html
i really appreciate you taking the time to help me on this one.
i was at my wits end.
praising your tenacity!!!!!
and just to recap if someone else finds this helpful...
the reason the rollovers were not working was that there was a "space" and an ''apostrophe"
in the following
prob 1
onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Nature's Happiness','','images/portfolio/natureshappiness_tOn.jpg',1)"
name="Nature's Happiness"
id="Nature's Happiness"
prob2
onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Honey's Return','','images/portfolio/natureshappiness_tOn.jpg',1)"
name="Honey's Return"
id="Honey's Return"
PROBLEM CODE

Honey's Return" name="HoneysReturn" width="56" height="71" border="0" id="HoneysReturn" /></a></td>
CODE FIXED BY HANS (but with wrong name and tags)
<td><a href="images/portfolio/Nature'sHappiness.jpg" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('Mom21','','images/portfolio/natureshappine ss_tOn.jpg',1)" rel="lightbox[art]" title="Mom"><img src="images/portfolio/natureshappiness_t.jpg" alt="Elton Leonard.

Images are not loading - but work in Preview mode

Hi -
I was wondering if anyone can help me. I'm kind of new to Dreamweaver and I can't seem to figure this out on my own.
I'm using Dreamweaver 8. I developed a web page based on a template in which everything works perfectly in "Preview" mode on all browsers. But when I uploaded the files to my remote hosting, the template based images (found in the "images" folder) are not loading on the page. The images that I added to the template myself, found in the same "images" folder ($200,000 in ..., and picture at bottom) are loading. So some of the images in the images folder are loading some are not.
I've checked the Images folder on the remote site, and they all seem to be there. I've also checked for broken links, and I'm not getting any (I don't know if that would help w/ missing images or not, but I'm trying everything I can think of). I also checked to see if there is a separate CSS style sheet, and there wasn't one supplied with the template (there is some CSS info in the code on the html page). The image sizes are all small enough as well. Can anyone help me with this?
You can view one of the pages at: http://www.200kin5months.com/squeeze-video.html
Thank you in advance to anyone who might be able to help!
Stacey
PS - I've attached a screenshot from Dreamweaver Preview to show what it is supposed to look like.

Your Web server is running on an operating system that is case-sensitive. You appear to have uploaded an Images folder, but not an images folder.
You do not have a file here:
images/squeeze-video_425x344_r9_c6.jpg
But you do have a file here:
Images/squeeze-video_425x344_r9_c6.jpg
So you'll need to either change all your image/<whatever> links to point to Images/<whatever>, or upload another folder named images.
Or, if you want to use a single folder, and if your local file system is not case-sensitive, you might be able to do it in DW's file panel. Here is a method that you might use to have all of them in a folder named images.
BACK UP YOUR SITE FILES
Rename Images to Foo (allow DW to update links)
Rename Foo to images (allow DW to update links)
Upload the images folder and any/all files that DW changed
Delete the online Images folder

Wordpress xml file from local to remote MySQL

I am developing a php site with an attached WordPress blog using Dreamweaver CS6 on my localhost test server. My php pages contain echos from private blog posts with an average of several divs per page.
Heres my problem, when I export the xml from my localhost and import the xml into my remote hosted WordPress blog the categories I assigned locally do not have the same category #assignment.
Example:
blog/?cat=10 for a catagory on my local blog changes assignment to lets say
blog/?cat=9 on my hosted remote site blog.
Of course this totally messes up the echoed content going to the respective divs on the php main site pages.
How can I either get the xml to maintain the cat=# or else edit the category number assignment on the remote site?
The reason I want to develop locally is to be able to demo the site in different locals which do not have internet access. In other words I would like my localhost test server site mirror the actucal site on the web.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I wonder why the order of catID has changed remotely. Can you do the following?
Do a full backup of your remote database
Export your local DB as .sql file
Import that onto your remote DB (full import)
See if the order remains the same. Let us know how it goes.
If that doesn't work, I'll walk you through how to change the order to match local listing.

How to get Widget Browser in CS5 now

For the first time I'm trying to get the Adobe Widget Browser set up for Dreamweaver CS5 - I keep getting the error message that "Failed getting Widget Feed. version 2.0 Build 230.

Strategy for making a pop-up slideshow?

I want to be able to tap a photo and then go to a full-page (or nearly) slideshow (and then back to the original page). I'm wondering if anyone has found an interesting strategy for this -- for a slideshow that doesn't become a page you can navigate to.
The easy ways to do it are to have an in-between page as the slideshow, or a page at the end of the article as the slideshow. But what I really want is a slideshow function that doesn't "count" as a page. DPS doesn't let you hide things very well! Doing a single image pop-up is easy with an MSO, but I don't see anywhere to take it from there, since I can't put an HTML overlay into that MSO...
If anyone has a slideshow idea to share, that would be appreciated.
Thanks
David

How are your HTML skills?
You could create a lightbox in Dreamweaver or even use Muse.

How can I trigger a lightbox slide show with a single image using Dreamweaver?

I'm trying to build a page for a cosmetics company in which clicking on a color swatch opens a lightbox-style slide show of model shots using that color makeup. Each swatch should trigger a different slideshow. I'm using Dreamweaver (CS6), and I'm sure there must be an easy way to do this, but I haven't figured it out yet. (It would be a snap in Flash, but alas, the site needs to work on a broad range of devices).
I'd appreciate any ideas, and please make your instuction easy to follow if possible—pretend you're talking to a dog, or an eighty-six-year-old—because I may not be as experienced as I ought to be. Probably not.
Thanks in advance for any advice.
best,
wendy

DW doesn't do this for you.

When I try to attach my css style sheet Dreamweaver gives me an error saying that my .css file appears to be an .html file and will not attach. How do I fix this so I can attach my style sheet?

I have built a css style sheet in Dreamweaver. When I try to attach it to my html website, it prompts me that my "css file appears to be an .html file and cannot attach". I've tried removing the /* */ as suggested by other forums, but this has not resolved the issue. I was using css style sheets with no problem 2 days ago. Now I get that error message. How do I fix this so I can attach my style sheet?

What does the code of the CSS file look like?
An external CSS file needs to be written in CSS only (no html tags like <html>, <body>, <head>, etc ).
It also must have a .css file extension, if yours has a .html extension it won't work.
