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.

  • Using Adobe Photoshop CS 5.5. Menu and text are too small on my 4k Display.

    I am running Adobe Photoshop CS 5.5 on my windows 8.1 laptop with 4K display. Where is the option to increase the size of menu and font? The menu looks fine on my mac book pro retina display at work, so I know it has to be possible. Please help.

    You can go to Edit>Preferences>Interface>UI Font size and increase the font size a little.  Whether that will make any difference on a 4K display I don't know.  CC 2014 has an option ("Experimental") to increase the UI size by 200% for high density displays.  Sorry - not much help.

  • Beginner question - using pre for flexibility in text?

    Hi,
    Apologies for the beginner question, but I am struggling to work out whether it is more sensible to use <pre> in all my texts, as it seems more flexible.
    It seems that when I use <p> - paragraph - I can't use multiple space bars to align certain bits of text, but more disruptively I have gaps between text when I press Enter (I guess this defines the paragraph, but isn't always wanted).
    Well, basically, <pre> seems more flexible, but it behaves strangely sometimes. What do other people use?
    Many thanks!

    Hi Ireshe, just a beginner like you.  Have never heard of <pre> tags, use <p> tags.  If you hit SHIFT enter after a sentence this puts in a <br> tag or line break which basically leaves a blank line between text.
    If you add     &nsbp;    or lots of them between words this gives you an extra space between letters.  How all your paragraphs sit on the page is defined by CSS.  E.g.
    p {
         margin:0;
         padding: 5px 0 0 10px;}
    This would place all text within <p> tags on your page, with a 5px gap at the top, no space to the right or bottom and 10px space to the left.  Hope this helps, good luck!

  • Beginner question regarding 32-bit mixing and mixdown workflow

    Hello
    I have a beginner question regarding 32-bit mixing and mixdown.
    If I edit some 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo WAV Files and put them into multi-track view to do crossfades, how should I do the mixdown?
    Audition shows me in multi-track view, that it is doing 32-Bit mixing.
    Can I just mixdown to 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo without any dithering (as the files are 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo to begin with), or will I lose quality that way?
    I will be performing a normalization to 96% to the mixdown and then split to tracks in Audition, as in the end I want to to have an audio CD.
    I guess I could mixdown to 32Bit, then normalize and in the end save back to 16Bit, 44.1kHz Stereo WAV (with dithering, I suppose?), but I want to avoid any unnecessary converting steps.
    Greetings

    Any time you do any processing on a 16bit file in 16 bit only it will degrade the audio slightly due to rounding of the calculations. Working in 32 bit floating point (Audition's default) takes account of all bits generated due to processing.
    So it is always best to work in 32 bit, even if your originals were 16, all the way through until the last stage of saving the files for CD burning. Any losses due to conversion will be insignificant against those due to working 16 bit.

  • Questions on tracking iphone and viewing pictures and texts

    is it possible to track the location of another persons iphone? also is it possible to look up past texts/picture messages on a persons iphone to "spy"?

    You can track any iPhone with find my friends app but each owner has to approve the location app also I don't know of anything short of a court order that will let someone else see what you are doing on the phone. Now any iPhone or apple device that you know the I d and password for can be tracked from the cloud if they have find my iPhone enabled and anyone with access to the bill can see numbers of callers and texts although iMessages do not show up on the bill they can be set up to go to another apple device as well as your iPhone if they are set up to go to an apple I d instead of a phone number and the iPhone can have more than one numbers messages if they are using the same iTunes account

  • Question about the new 27" LED Cinema Display and text size

    Hi, I own the 24" Apple LED Cinema Display and text on the monitor is just large enough for me. Won't text on the new 27" Display be much smaller with its higher resolution?

    MANY thanks for the tip.
    Now then - all indications are that my Mini will NOT pass audio via the MDP Cable given the age as well as the lack of an HDMI port (I know there isn't one this rig).  Unless I am missing something I don't believe there is any adapter out there that will allow the audio to now pass through the MDP Cable if the rig itself was never configured to do so.
    Following links in your posting, someone recommended this: 
    http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802 &p_id=6331&seq=1&format=2#description
    However it seems to be set up to deliver A/V to an HDMI display, and unless I am mistaken, the 27" LED ACD does not have an HDMI in.  Although my MacMini does have a S/PDIF Optical Digital Audio Output I don't believe the 27" LED ACD has any kind of separate audio input (either TOS Link or even 1/8 smini stereo).
    So I reckon I am SOL with regard to getting the audio onto the new monitor from the Mini and I would need to keep my present speakers set up using the 18/" mini stereo out - but the video should still work......yes?  

  • How To Change Hyperlinks And Nav Menu Colors

    I continue to see people stating that it's impossible to change hyperlink colors and navigation menu colors until after you publish your site. This is not true. It's quite easy to update your templates with the colors YOU want and when you update the template, you never have to mess with any post-processing. You make a new page? Your colors are already there.
    I've gone over this before in this thread:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3288533&#3288533
    But I'll go over the quick and dirty version here as well. Those who want more detail can post a question and I'll elaborate.
    First, do you know how to get into iWeb's inner folders? You right click or control click on your iWeb icon and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu.
    Step 2
    Once you've done that, you'll see a new Finder window that shows a folder called Contents. Open that and then open the next folder Resources. Within Resources there's a folder named Shared. Open the Shared folder.
    You're now looking at your collection of iWeb template files. You'll notice that each template has seven individual page files - each file defines the layout and styles for the page for which its named. This is actually one of the two places where you'll find the data/images that make up your iWeb pages. This location only contains the images. Now I'll show you were to find the data file.
    So you're currently here:
    /Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/Shared/
    You want to go here:
    /Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/English.lproj
    Now if you speak another language and your Mac's system language is set to the language you speak, substitue English with that language. If your system is set to English regardless of the language you speak, and you use the English templates, then stick with the English folder.
    When you're in the English.lproj folder, you will see seven sub-folders and one file named TemplatesInfo.plist. TemplatesInfo.plist is the file that registers the templates and tells iWeb what you've got in your collection. But we don't care about that file for now. We're after the template data files.
    The seven sub-folders are aptly named for each of the seven page-types as you can see. Open the About Me folder.
    Now you will see an "about me.webtemplate" file for every template you have in your collection. Good job. You've learned something new. Move on to Step 3.
    Step 3
    If you haven't decided yet, now's the time to decide which template you'd like to update. If you're just along for the ride to learn something new, no worries. We won't do anything you can't undo.
    Pick a template file now. Perhaps you chose the White template, or:
    White About Me.webtemplate
    Right click or control click on this file and select Show Package Contents from the pop-up menu. This will launch a new Finder window that displays the contents of the White About Me.webtemplate file.
    You will likely see a handful of different files, but the file you want is the one named Index.xml.gz.
    Index.xml.gz is the brain behind the template. Within this file are all the settings for the page you chose and it's really not hard to find what you want and change it. So let's take a peek.
    Step 4
    Double-click the file Index.xml.gz. This will reveal a new file named Index.xml. You might have to scroll down in your Finder window to see it. Rename Index.xml.gz to Index.xml.gz.backup in case you screw things up, you have your original.
    Now, open Index.xml with TextEdit. Do not open the file with a code editor unless you have already formatted the file.
    When the file opens, you'll notice it's one gigantic jumbled mess of stuff. No worries, we'll straighten that out. All you need to do is a find/replace.
    Find all instances of: ><
    And replace with:
    <
    The line break is important so maybe just copy the lines right out of this post. When you replace all of those, the file will be far more easy to view.
    Assuming you've completed that step. You're basically ready to make your change and test it out! Not hard ey?
    So let's say you want to change your hyperlink color from grey to blue. Search for this string:
    BLDefaultHyperlinkCharacterStyleIdentifier0
    When you find that string, you will see a few lines below it, two lines that look similar to this:
    <sf:fontColor>
    <sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r=".8" sfa:g="1" sfa:b="0.4" sfa:a="1"/>
    This is how the template specifies color. It's RGB100. Your Mac came with a program called Art Director's Took Kit and that application can tell you the RGB100 values for any color you want. Tinker with that and you'll have a lot of fun with this.
    So I picked out a nice royal blue for you. The RGB100 values for it are:
    R:0 G:25 B:100
    What you need to do is update the color line to match those values:
    <sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0" sfa:g=".25" sfa:b="1" sfa:a="1"/>
    Notice that you specify these in terms of a percentage, where 25 became .25 and 100 became 1.
    Step 5
    Save your file. It's time to see your work in action. Open iWeb if it isn't open already and create a new page using the template you've just altered. If you altered the White About Me page, then select that and create the new page.
    It there are hyperlinks already on this page, you should already see that they reflect your new color. If there aren't any hyperlinks, then type some text and create one. You should see your new link color right away!
    Now if you don't see the new color, either you picked the wrong page or you neglected to rename the Index.xml.gz file a few steps back. If you did not rename that file, then it's still in control of your template. Rename it now and try again.
    If you don't like that color, simply swap back to the TextEdit page and change it until you like it - switching back and forth between the file and iWeb to view your changes. Once you're happy, make note of the color you chose and make the change for the remaining six pages in the tempalte you selected. Just be sure to follow the steps for each page you edit. If you fail to see your change, again, check to see that you renamed Index.xml.gz.
    Side Notes
    For the more technical, rather than editing an existing template, you might want to duplicate and rename a template. This essentially creates a brand new one. If you're pretty good within Finder then go for it, just be sure that you duplicate the files in both locations:
    /Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/Shared/
    /Applications/iWeb/Contents/Resources/English.lproj/...
    Choose a unique name for the duplicated template and change every single file so that the new name replaces the old one. You would have to register this new template in the TemplatesInfo.plist file as well, but I'm not going to get into that here.
    The thread I referenced at the top has all kinds of search terms to find the other hyperlink styles (rollover and visited) and all the navigation menu styles plus a bunch of other fun stuff.
    Now, it seems long, but that's because I wrote it well. The shortest version of this I've ever written was two sentences, but that was for a UNIX geek and he got it. It's just as easy for you, but I write it out so that anyone can do this, because anyone can. It's just not hard.
    If you have questions about any of the steps, go ahead and ask.

    Good. Okay here's how to apply a background color to your nav bar buttons. For example, my Aerolite template sets the selected page to a black background color. The rollover effect uses a gradient fill. I'll describe both of those here.
    First, here are the navigation menu search terms:
    navbaritem-style-normal-default
    navbaritem-style-rollover-default
    navbaritem-style-selected-default
    navbar-pargraph
    The first three set the button effects and text colors. The last one there sets the font, font size and other paragraph styles.
    To change the selected page button background color, or gradient or image, first search for it using the search term above. Start from the top of the file because there are two instances of those terms, one where you can set the values, the other is only reference to the first and does not allow you to change settings.
    When you find the search term, you might want to insert an empty line above it to help separate it from the rest of the code. You can also insert an empty line below the section. The end of this style ends with:
    </sf:navbar-item-style>
    Be careful not to mix that up with </sf:navbaritem-character-style>
    Now, within this section, you'll find all kinds of settings... stroke, fill, character styles, etc. Notice you can change font color in there. But for this demo, you want to find the section that looks like this:
    <sf:fill>
    <sf:null/>
    </sf:fill>
    I'm assuming you're editing an Apple template that does not already have a fill effect. If it does have one, then your example might not look exactly like that.
    To apply a color fill, change those three lines to these lines:
    <sf:fill>
    <sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0" sfa:g="0" sfa:b="0" sfa:a="1"/>
    </sf:fill>
    You can see that we've inserted the line that specifies color - something you should be familiar with by now. Here you can specify the color that will become the background of your nav bar button. This example specifies black. Easy no?
    If you would prefer a gradient fill, then replace those three lines with this:
    <sf:fill>
    <sf:angle-gradient sfa:ID="SFRAngleGradient-1111" sf:opacity="1" sf:type="linear" sf:angle="0">
    <sf:stops sfa:ID="NSMutableArray-1111">
    <sf:gradient-stop sfa:ID="SFRGradientStop-1111" sf:fraction="0">
    <sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0.40" sfa:g="0.40" sfa:b="0.30" sfa:a="1"/>
    </sf:gradient-stop>
    <sf:gradient-stop sfa:ID="SFRGradientStop-2222" sf:fraction="1">
    <sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0.64" sfa:g="0.66" sfa:b="0.54" sfa:a="1"/>
    </sf:gradient-stop>
    </sf:stops>
    </sf:angle-gradient>
    </sf:fill>
    Now, don't panic Here's what this is. The first line allows you to specify the angle of your gradient. Play with the numbers from 0 to 359 until you have what makes sense for your design.
    Then, you will see two familiar lines again - the lines that allow you to specify color! The first line is the first color of your gradient and the second color is the second color of your gradient. That's all there is to it!
    SECRET: It might be possible to add additional colors, not just two. Do you see the part sf:fraction="0" and sf:fraction="1"? These are gradient stops. I'm willing to bet that if you inserted a thrid gradient stop with a fraction setting of .5, you'd have a three-color gradient!
    <sf:gradient-stop sfa:ID="SFRGradientStop-3333" sf:fraction=".5">
    <sf:color xsi:type="sfa:calibrated-rgb-color-type" sfa:r="0" sfa:g="0.25" sfa:b="4" sfa:a="1"/>
    </sf:gradient-stop>
    I have never tried this - it just occurred to me as I was looking at this code. Big prize for the first person to prove the theory
    NOTE: You will notice that the number 1111 and 2222 are within this code. iWeb XML relies on identification tags here and there. It's nothing you really have to care about except if you insert gradient fills in more than one area. Those numbers need to be unique so if you paste that code in for your selected page button and then paste it again for your rollover buttons, you'll need to update the numbers for the second button. Any numbers are fine. Use 3333 and 4444 for the second set, 5555 and 6666 for the thrid and so on. I often just type 4345781476 - doesn't matter.
    Next lesson will be images.

  • Beginner Question

    Hello all, hopefully I have posted this to the correct LiveCycle board!
    I'm new to Acrobat and LiveCycle in general. I'm working out of windows LiveCycle Designer 8.x  and my question is as follows....
    I'm working off of the "Quote" Form Template and what I am looking for is a way to make the rows of the Table expand as needed.  I will be converting this Template into a "Purchase Order" form, and there will be many occassions where I will need to increase the table rows - perhaps onto a second or even third page - due to the volume of different items I will be seeking prices on at a given time.
    Long story short I would like to take this "QUOTE" form template and make it such that if needed, I can expand the table size one row at a time, pushing the content beneath (Comments, subtotal, etc) onto the next page....
    Hoping I have explained my query well enough,  Could anyone provide me a solution or point me in the correct direction?
    Many thanks!

    As a followup, so as not to clog the board with numerous threads I have another beginner question
    For the sake of hypotheticals I am creating a dynamic PDF form.  This pdf is a Purchase Order Form, with a table in the Body that will expand/contract as the form user needs.  (EXA-  Default table size is 5 items, however user is creating an order for 12 items, he/she can increase the table rows to desired capactiy.) It will be a very simple layout. All data for the form will come from manual entry, no XML data binding going on.
    My new question is as follows:    Is there a way I can have this user's Adobe reader or Adobe acrobat software remember previous data entries, so that if 4 weeks after ordering widget X he/she needs to place another order for widget X, the software will autofill the table as he/she types into the table cell?
    This would be similar to how Excel will start to autofill if it recognizes a previously entered value from some other cell in the worksheet (workbook?)
    EXA-
    [NAME]   [MODEL]   [QTY]   [PRICE]
    Widget           A            433        $30.00
    Would it be possible for the software to notice that I'm typing the word "widget" somewhere after typing "wid" ???
    Many thanks for any and all followups, I'm a teenager trying to help out in my father's small business. They are in the darkages here and I'm doing my best to self teach.
    Thanks.

  • Beginner question - how to efficiently check if a photo is part of the selection

    Dear all,
    Sorry for this beginner question, however I don't know how to solve it and I'm sure that there is a quick and easy answer to this:
    My target is to get all the "heads of stack" (photos with Position 1 in stacks) of the selection ("photos" below).
    for i, photo in ipairs( photos ) do
      local photoName = photo:getFormattedMetadata('fileName')
       if photo:getRawMetadata( 'isInStackInFolder' ) then
       --Photo is in a stack
            local photoHeadOfStack = photo:getRawMetadata('topOfStackInFolderContainingPhoto')
            local stackPos = photo:getRawMetadata( 'stackPositionInFolder' ) -- get the position in the stack
            local photoHeadName = photoHeadOfStack:getFormattedMetadata('fileName')
            app:logVerbose("Photo nb ^1, name ^2 is in a stack with the position ^3", i, photoName, stackPos)
            if stackPos == 1 then
            -- photo is master of the stack
                 stackTop[#stackTop+1]=photo
                 app:logVerbose("Photo ^1 is top of the stack ^2", photoName, #stackTop)
                 -- check if couple if correct
            elseif photos.photoHeadOfStack then
                 app:logVerbose("Photo ^1 is in a stack, but not on top. Top of the stack already selected", photoName)
            else
                 stackTop[#stackTop+1]=photoHeadOfStack
                 app:logVerbose("Photo ^1 is in a stack, but not on top. Top of the stack ^2 - ^3 ", photoName, #stackTop, photoHeadName)
            end
      end
    end
    In the if structure in the middle checking the Position in the stack, if the Position is not 1, I would like to check if the photo heading the stack ('photoHeadOfStack') is part of 'photos'. I tried 'elseif photos.photoHeadOfStack then' and 'elseif photos[photoHeadOfStack] then' but it doesn't work ->this elseif is never true even if 'photoHeadOfStack' is part of 'photos'.
    Is there anyway to have this check done without checking "manually" photos ?(via for example a for Loop)
    I'm sure that Lua proposes this, but I don't know how...
    I thank you for your Support!

        --[[ This code creates "stackTops", an array of LrPhotos that are the
        tops of all the stacks containing photos in the array
        "photos". ]]
    stackTopSet = {}
    for _, photo in ipairs (photos) do
        local stackTop = photo:getRawMetadata ("topOfStackInFolderContainingPhoto")
        if stackTop ~= nil then stackTopSet [stackTop] = true end
        end
    stackTops = {}
    for photo, _ in pairs (stackTopSet) do table.insert (stackTops, photo) end

    click on the 'Edit User Policies' 'Login' button.  It's there you can enable WAN access.

  • Beginner question: Configure Tomcat for JAAS?

    Hi,
    This is a beginner question :-(. I'm trying to get JAAS to work on my Tomcat (6.0.12) installation. I used code from a Javaworld article (http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-09-2002/jw-0913-jaas.html)
    Of course I had to configure my Tomcat to work together with JAAS. The document I used is: http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/printer/realm-howto.html
    According to the Tomcat doc I have to do the following steps before I can use JAAS to authenticate a user:
    1. Develop your code. Place the compiled classes in Tomcat's classpath
    2. Setup a login.config file for Java, and tell Tomcat where to find it (set JAVA_OPTS)
    3. Configure the JAASRealm in your server.xml
    1 Develop code: I use the following classes:
    PassiveCallbackHandler.java
    RdbmsCredential.java
    RdbmsLoginModule.java
    RdbmsPrincipal.java
    These classes I put in the package rdbmsjaas.
    In the %CATALINA_HOME%/webapps/Javaworld_Jaas/WEB-INF/lib directory I created the rdbmsjaas.jar file.
    The jsp is called jaas.jsp, and is stored in %CATALINA_HOME%/webapps/Javaworld_Jaas
    2. Setup login.config
    In %CATALINA_HOME%\conf I saved the file Javaworld_all_that_Jaas.config, containing:
    Example {
       RdbmsLoginModule required
       debug="true"
       url="jdbc:mysql://localhost/jaasdb?user=javauser&password=javadude"
       driver="com.mysql.jdbc.Driver";
    };I created an XP Environment Variable JAVA_OPTS with the value <-DJAVA_OPTS=-Djava.security.auth.login.config==C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 6.0/conf/JavaWorld_All_That_Jaas.config> (excluding < and >)
    I used the fully qualified address, instead of $CATALINA_HOME/conf/JavaWorld_All_That_Jaas.config. I think XP balks when it sees $CATALINA_HOME).
    3 Configure JAASRealm in server.xml
    In %CATALINA_HOME%\conf\ I changed web.xml. I added the following lines:
          <Realm className="org.apache.catalina.realm.JAASRealm"
                 appName="jaas"
                 userClassName="rdbmsjaas.RdbmsPrincipal"
                 debug="99"
           />If I run the jsp from http://localhost:8080/JavaWorld_Jaas/jaas.jsp, I can enter my username/password, but when I click the Submit button, I get:
    Caught Exception: java.lang.SecurityException: Unable to locate a login configurationWhere did my configuration go wrong?

    You will need a JSP/servlet engine such as Tomcat - Apache alone won't do it.
    I haven't seen any tutorials on set-up but the Tomcat documentation includes info on how to link to Apache. There are also books you can buy - check out the online book stores such as Amazon.
    There's also a lot of info on this forum.

  • Beginner question: creating my own virtual instruments from samples

    Hi, I have a beginner question. I'd like to make a click-track, but I want to use my own sounds, either recorded or from the internet. Can I do this with Logic Express 7, or do I need Logic Pro 7 and the EXS24?
    Thanks,
    Ryan

    I think you can do it, but it might be a pain.
    You could import a sample of a single click and just paste it into every beat on the Arrange Page.
    Other than that, you might need the sampler included with Logic Pro
