Beginner freehand/text question

Whenever I create text and then export the file to a .jpg,
the .jpg has a border around the text I created... How can I
disable that?
Thanks for any help!

JPEG is a poor file format choice for small text. What is the
size of the
text and what are the dimensions and resolution of the JPEG
file? How will
the file be used?
Can you be more specific in what you mean by a border? If you
mean blurring
of the text into the background color, you can control that
to some degree
with anti-aliasing settings in Export>JPEG>Setup.

Beginner Question: UL Nav Menu and Text Question

Ok, I appreciate the input in advance. Although I am using a Dreamweaver book and online tools like Lynda.com... there are some questions I can't find the answer too or just don't know how to articulate my issue correctly in a search browser to find the right answer...
So, my question:
I have used Spry menu's which are great, but I have taken the time to learn how to create a Pull Down Nav Menu from a Unordered List and CSS.
That UL is driven by text in the list...so what if you want to create an unordered list type Nav pulldown, but want to only use background graphics for the nav menu (i.e. text is already imbedded in the graphic from Photoshop or the graphic has no text and is just a graphic). Whenever I completely delete the text out of a List Item, that list item dissapears, which makes complete sense but begs the question of how do I create a Nav Menu with only graphics that will pull down into multiple levels?
Is what I am asking not a real standard practice and I shouldn't be doing it that way?
If it were a one level menu, I know I could just use floated DIV tags, but since I have pull downs I can't see how that would work in a multiple nested pull down Nav Menu.
Again, sorry for the noob question.. and I appreciate your responses in advance.

Thanks again Murray.. and yes I am serious. I am coding two sites right now for my personal businesses. I have a decent handle on Dreamweaver (but not straight coding which I am sure will come over time through trial and error...) and I now taking courses via Lynda and reading books on PHP.
After seeing your response above, I fell stupid as that is just a failure to learn HTML which is a double-edged sword of DW.
Things are not too bad so far, but I am trying to balance the need for getting the site up in a reasonable amount of time AND learning all the technology behind the site.
Since my site(s) will be actively managed, and I consider myself smart and technically savvy, I just couldn't justify paying someone to manage my sites that would need to be changed almost daily... would probably bankrupt me also.
I know some local sites for medium size businesses where they paid brand name web design companies $40-50k to design and build sites that really aren't that great..and are continuing to pay as they are active sites and they wanted someone to manage them. Other smaller companies are paying between $600 and $1,000 per STATIC page and they provided the artwork upfront and got some pretty simple web development back.
And in this economy, knowing how to design, build, and maintain a website probably isn't the worst skill to have in the event I ever find myself out of middle management CPG work
Some of my challenges I am trying to learn about right now are:
PHP & SQL for contact forms, login for restricted access, consumer feedback, etc.
RSS specific news feeds into the site
SEO
Problem is I seem to have more business ideas than time... I have worked in mid to upper mgmt for large CPG companies most of my life, and recently moved my family to Northwest Arkansas for my career. There is low-hanging fruit everywhere for internet businesses that are tied knowledge specific to the local "retailer" here..In fact, some of them I can't believe haven't been taken advantage of yet (which is why I feel time stressed in case someone else beats me too it).
Thanks again for all your help.

Page level help text question

APEX - 4
DB version - 10g
Web server architecture - OHS
Browser - IE8
Theme - 5
I know how to set and display help text for a page item, and I see there is the option to add help text at the page level, but how does the user accessing the screen see the page level help text?
I was thinking it might be a good way to add user help guide information at the page level.
Thank you for any assistance.

I know how to set and display help text for a page item, and I see there is the option to add help text at the page level, but how does the user accessing the screen see the page level help text?Using a Help page and region accessed via a help link (e.g. a navigation bar entry), or using the <tt>apex_application.help</tt> API method in a PL/SQL Dynamic Content region.
This is covered in the APEX documentation which should be consulted before posting a question here.

Swapping images/text question?

Hi, I am moving this question to this forum from general as I got a response suggesting that dynamic html could be the solution to my problem. Any guidance on how to set up the behaviour would be much appreciated.
The problem I have is that I have created a navigation menu using plain text that changes colour on hover and two images in different divs swap images. It all works fine using a standard behaviour but now the client has asked if I can also make the opposite work ie. when the user rolls over the image, then the text changes colour. Is this possible without creating the text elements as images and swapping them using a standard behaviour?
I am not very familiar with the capabilities of javascript so some guidance would be great.
The present draft site is here, so you can see the problem.
Many thanks
Richard

Hi Richard,
I suggest you to use javascript. I will try to give you a basic examle for this problem with a short explanation. Let's say you have the following html code
Here comes the default text of the elementThe image has the id of firstimage and the div#first will be the object where the text will swapped at onmouseover event.
The code above will catch the rollower event of the #firstimaged object and will make the ChangeTextofDivIdfirst javascript function run. With the used innerHTML property you may specify any html code instead of the 'the swapping text' .

How to transcribe text "Question x of y"?

Hello, i'm new here. I need to help with this. I'm creating
Quiz for our customers and i need to transcribe text on the
Question - "Question x of y", but i don't know where i'll find it.
Thank you!

Hi there,
The simplest way of transcribe text in Adobe Captivate is to
export the project as XML, make you changes and then import the XML
document back into Captivate...
To do this carry out the following steps...
1. Open the project you want to translate.
2. Choose File > Export > To XML...
3. In the Save as dialog browse to where you want to save
your file and then click Save
4. Using a text editor or a web authoring tool such as Adobe
Dreamweaver make your changes.
5. Back in Adobe Captivate choose File > Import > From
XML...
6. Select your modified XML file
7. Click Open
HTH

Importing desired text question.

I'm new to applescript and I was wondering if anyone had tips on how to fix this problem with this script I was working on.
If im trying to write a command into terminal it looks something like this.
activate application "Terminal"
     tell "Terminal"
     do script "sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText 'Text inserted here'"
end tell
But what I need to know how to do is something along the lines of this
set desiredtextQ to display dialog "Please enter your desired text." default answer "Text Here" buttons {"Continue", "Cancel"}
set desiredtextA to text returned of desiredtextQ
activate application "Terminal"
     tell "Terminal"
     do script "sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText 'desiredtextA'"
end tell
So basicly all I'm trying to do is take the text returned of a question and import it into a scripted terminal command.
I would be thankful if anyone had any help to share with me.

First off, avoid scripting Terminal.app. For most purposes, including this one, there is no need and you are far, far better off using AppleScript's do shell script, which can execute a shell command without needing to invoke Terminal.app.
Therefore, I'd rewrite your first script as:
do shell script "defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText 'Text inserted here'" with administrator privileges
Note that I've also nixed the 'sudo' component in favor of do shell script's '... with administrator privileges'.
As for the second part of your question, integrating a variable, that's just a matter of concatenating the strings using the & character:
set desiredtextQ to display dialog "Please enter your desired text." default answer "Text Here" buttons {"Cancel", "Continue"} default button 2
set desiredtextA to text returned of desiredtextQ
do shell script "echo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText " & desiredtextA with administrator privileges
Note that if the text from the dialog includes (or might include) spaces or other shell-unsafe characters you might need to quote the text, like:
do shell script "echo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.loginwindow LoginwindowText " & quoted form of desiredtextA with administrator privileges

FR cell text question

Hi there,
I'm trying to add cell text into a FR report.
Right now, I'm adding a text row under each data row that utilizes the <<CellText()>> formula to display the cell text under each data cell.
I have two questions from this...
1) This seems like a fairly inefficient method if I have a lot of data rows/columns, is there an easier way to achieve what I am currently doing?
2) Assuming this is the only way, how do I suppress the entire data row if there is no cell text data for the whole data row? I've tried using all the basic suppression options, as well as some of the advanced options (ie. Value in Cell = No Data...)
Could anyone kindly offer some suggestions, much appreciated!
Thanks in advance!

In the Advanced Options try using "Data Values in Current Row" No Data

Beginner Menu Layout Question

Hello,
I apologize since I know this question has to be answered somewhere but I'm not sure how to search it...
What is the proper way to build a menu for a website? I have built my homepage with the header, footer, and side menu that I like. Now I want to build pages that the menu link while keeping the header, and menus. What is the right approach? My code is written in html and css. I use to develop websites in pure html and used frames but I know they are not recommended. Also, I don't want to have to copy my code into each link.
If you could also recommend a good beginner tutorial on layout for css websites, I would be greatly appreciative. I have read through w3schools tutorials and a few others.
Thank you in advance!

You have 2 choices:
Templates
Server Side Includes
Using the template function within Dreamweaver is a good way to go if it's a small site . .
For larger sites then serverside includes would be more practical and easier for maintenance purposes.
Templates:
You create a master template page, you declare which areas will be the same for every page, (non-editable regions) and then declare an area that will
change on every page (the content area) , these are editable regions.
Once you create the template and save it, you are then able to create 'child' pages from this template - as many as you like :-) If you every need to make a change to the menu or the footer or the header, change it in the master template, save it and the changes will flow through to the child pages created from the template.
Using DW Templates:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/templates.html
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/dw_templates.html
The other option is to use Server Side Includes (SSI)
A bit more about SSIs here:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f 693f21-7b6ca.html
http://bignosebird.com/ssi.shtml
Using PHP includes if your server supports php:
http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/php_includes.asp
One major difference between using Templates and SSI and PHP Includes?
When you make a change to a template page, you will need to re-upload all the pages to the server that were changed - may become very tedious if it is a very large site.
With using SSI, you make a change to one file and only have to upload the one file and all pages on the server will be update accordingly.

Beginner ask a question !!!

Hello ...
I'm a beginner in java language... and when i am try to compile the file it gives this error ??
unreported exception java.lang.Exception; must be caught or declared to be thrown
int guess = askForNumber(0,100);
can you give me any help ,,,
thanx
the code down here !!!
import java.io.BufferedReader;
import java.io.InputStreamReader;
class hangman{
     static int h;
public static void main(String[] args){
     h=newRandom(100);
     int guess = askForNumber(0,100);
public static int askForNumber(int minRange,int maxRange)
     throws Exception{
     try{
          BufferedReader keyboard = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in),1);
          System.out.print("Guess the number "+minRange+"-"+maxRange+" ??");
          int read=Integer.parseInt(keyboard.readLine());
          return read;
     }finally{
          System.out.println("System error !!");
public static int newRandom(int Dificulty){
     return (int)Math.round(Math.random()*Dificulty);
}

Use [ b ] ..... [ /b ] to make fornt bold
Use [ i ] .... [ /i ] to make font italic
use [ u ] ..... [ /u ] to make font
underlined
but without spaces put the tags at the first and at
the end of the selected textI'm sure jverd knows that. He was asking you how you didn't manage to find the code tags, when obviously you found the other tags. He wasn't asking you to explain how those other tags work.

Beginner Unity Connection question

I have a very simple beginner question I would've thought would be really easy to find the answer, but so far, I have not.
To set up a call system call handler for your basic company main number, do I need a physical phone with the number attached to a line.
I've tried it without the physical phone and can't get it to work, but with a line, no problem?
thanks

Thank You.
Figured it would be fairly simple, just needed to know where to start.
This might be the answer to another beginner question I have been thinking about also.
Is it common for users to call their own number when they are calling in from outside to pick up vm and then press * to access?
The Meridian system we are tossing has a common DID number, but the way our vm was setup, the number is internal. I'm not sure if calling your own number is common or if I need to make a new number, or another CTI rp sort of thing and forward to internal vm DN.
Hope that makes sense.

Texting question on 3.1.3

Hi everyone! I've looked around for an answer, but I can't seem to find one.
My question is, on a 2g iPhone upgraded to the latest firmware, when texting you can type in landscape mode right? Because it was with the firmware, and not just a 3GS feature?

Landscape typing in Messages is a feature of the 3.x OS, not the hardware. It works in all iPhone models.

Parameter Text question

Anyway I can include the patch number, patch name and set name in the parameter text widow with overriding the parameter name? Also I can't seem to figure out what the plug-in option or channel option for the parameter text display does.

You can use the same FM POPUP_TO_CONFIRM and pass the ICON to the parameter POPUP_TYPE to avoid the "Question mark" icon.
Like:
CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_TO_CONFIRM'
EXPORTING
    TITLEBAR                    = 'Test '
    TEXT_QUESTION               = 'TEST'
    TEXT_BUTTON_1               = 'Yes'
    POPUP_TYPE                  = 'ICON_MESSAGE_INFORMATION_SMALL'
* IMPORTING
*   ANSWER                      =
* TABLES
*   PARAMETER                   =
* EXCEPTIONS
*   TEXT_NOT_FOUND              = 1
*   OTHERS                      = 2

CS3 ratio and text question

I just don't get this ratio thing. I'm editing a project in widescreen. All of my assets show 720x480 under Video info in the project window, yet they all fit in the wide screen format in the timeline output. I don't get that because 720x480 is 4x3.
So I open the text window to insert some text and I see that that window is in the 4x3 format and I don't know how to widen it so that I can move the text anywhere on the widescreen timeline.
My main question is how to get the text window to be widescreen but if anyone can lend an explanation to this whole ratio thing I'd also appreciate it.
Thanks
Craig

There are two "Aspect Ratios." The first is the Aspect Ratio of the Frame Size. That is the 720 x 480, that you see. Then, there is the PAR (Pixel Aspect Ratio), that John T. mentioned. In SD, there are two common PAR's, that determine how the images are composed, using non-square pixels. Basically, they are 0.9 and 1.2 (CS4 and CS5 have corrected the rounding of these PAR's just a bit), meaning that for Standard (4:3), one has rectangular pixels that are taller, than they are wide, hence the 0.9 PAR and for Widescreen (16:9), they are wider, than they are tall, hence the 1.2 PAR. It's the same pixel x pixel count, but those pixels are different sizes of rectangles.
Good luck, and hope that this helps,
Hunt
PS - for 4:3 Titles, you can use the fixed Effects>Motion>Scale (unchecking Proportional), but do watch out for "stretched" Text, as it might be easier to redo, than alter those visual attributes.

International Texting Question

I have a question to clarify some things.
I am currently a Verizon customer in the USA with Unlimited Texting, data, and have 700 shared minutes with the other lines.
I have a friend in Canada, and will be sending texts from the USA. To my understanding of your post, since I am in the USA and texting someone in Canada it falls under my "unlimited texting" and is free to contact my friend. However, under your linked "more info" page, each text sent and recieved from Canada will charge me $0.20. I want to know which source of information is correct before getting surprise charges on my bill.
Thanks for any follow up information.

If you make a plan change mid-month, you usually have 3 options. You can either BACKDATE the plan to the start of the billing cycle, have it take effect immediately, or FORWARDDATE the plan to the start of the next billing cycle.
If you activate a new texting package, and BACKDATE it, you will be charged the full amount for the cost of that plan for the month, and all of your usage will be billed under your new plan. This can eliminate overages in a lot of cases.
If you activate the new package and choose to have it take effect immediately, or at the start of the next billing cycle, only usage that happens after the plan is activated will be billed under that plan. All your previous usage will be billed under your old plan.
