Can I make my web page stretch and shrink to fill different sized browsers?

Hey team,
I just built my first site in iWeb: www.dylanjamesgeorge.com
I'm using iWeb version 3.0.2
I set the page width to 1200px because that's what looks best on my screen, however when I look at the site on a larger or smaller screen it doesn't look good. When I check out some other websites they manage to make their content stretch to fill different sized browsers. Something about using relative sizes (%) instead of absolute sizes (pixels) for the page dimensions?
I know iWeb doesn't offer this option, but I'm wondering if there's anyway to change the code manually.
I'm just trying to avoid people with small screens having to scroll to see content and people with large screens being left with lots of void space on either side of the screen.
Thanks in advance for your time.
Dylan

Hey Roddy,
Thanks for your reply. I've read that before, but what I'm trying to do is get the content on my page to move as the browser window gets smaller. For example, if I grab the bottom right hand corner of my browser right now and make the window smaller, the content of this page will adjust itself to stay centered until the window is too small, THEN it will add a scroll bar. Any idea how to make this happen in iWeb?

How can I make my web page fill up the entire browser screen regardless of monitor it is viewed on,

I have noticed that some websites are designed so that the page expands to fill in the entire screen, regardless of the size of the monitor. Here is an example: https://www.draft2digital.com/support/
I have viewed the Muse tutorial that expands the Footer area to fill in the whole screen, but it does not address how to do this for the main part of the web page, or the header. I have looked at the site setup section and do not see where I could set it to expand.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Okay, in your link the blue bars would be in muse as a blue box then drag the right side so that it stamps just outside your page area. This will make muse program it so you will always see it extend to fill the browser window. Do the same on left side and you should be good. It will work even better if you also centre the rest of your content under page, page properties, padding - check the box for centre horizontally. Any content you want to extend with the browser, while the rest stays centred, you have to drag extending the content so it snaps just outside the main page in muse.
Hope this helps.

I use to be able to rotate my iPhone and change the view of an image, Web page, email, and so on, from portrait to landscape, but after update, I cannot. I can only view in portrait mode. Anybody know what's up with that?

You need to do the basic troubleshooting steps described in the User Guide, Appendix B.
Restart phone
Reset phone
Restore in iTunes using a backup
Restore in iTunes as new, without using a backup
If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware failure in the phone that needs evaluation by Apple.

Just updated to 8 & now I can't open any web pages & firefox is still running in the background after browser was closed. I uninstalled and reinstalled as well as disabled add-ons and plugins nothing has changed, can I downgrade back to on older version?

A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

It was updated and i can't see the web page. It is only a white page. Android for tablet

I was able to see a webpage which starts with https. However the browser was updated and 1 can't see the web page anymore. I can see it in chrome but I need Firefox due to the plug ins.

I installed FLASH PLAYER and it doesn´t work. Everything started when Firefox was installed automatically. Does anybody knows how to install a complement in google chrome for android (it is a scanned document) since i could not open the web page in firefox or dolphin, I used chrome but now I cannot see the content. I already installed PDF reader. I do not know how to enable the plug in. I read that I should go to
chrome://plugins but this page doesn´t not exist.
How can I enable it in a tablet android?
Thank you in advance.

I Just bought a ipad 2 and I can conect to my home wifi but I cant connect to any free hotspots. my ipad shows the network and connection but I can't get any web pages.

I Just bought a IPAD2 and I can connect to my home wifi but I can't connect to any free hotspots. My Ipad shows the connections but I can't get any web pages. what do I do?

Many free wi-fi hotspots require that you register first - agreeing to their terms and conditions, etc. This is usually provided via a web page with Safari provided immediately after connecting. If the register page is provided via Flash, you won't see it and you won't be able to register.

Can't export a web page

I've just upgradded to iLife '08. When I try to save a web page the same as I had with the previous version of iPhoto, it doesn't work. The following steps are taken:
Highlight eight photos in a folder
Select File>Export
In the Export Photos window, select Web Page tab
Make other selections on the page and click Export
Then I've tried various file destination folders and the Desktop
When I click OK, an Exporting sub-window appears for a moment, then it changes to say
Unable to generate web page and only gives me the option to Cancel
It gives me no clues as to why it is unable to generate a web page. It has created the folders for the Images, Pages and Thumbnails but there isn't anything in those folders. I believe this is the same steps I used many times with iPhoto '06 to create a web pages.
Does anyone have an idea on how to save web pages with the new iPhoto? How can I revert back to the old version of iPhoto?
Thank you for you help.

Bill:
Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, putting your administrator login name, long or short, in the owner and group sections. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field. See if this will help.
Next, log into another account or boot into Safe Mode and see if you can export to a web page. If so then there's something amiss with your account. If not, then a reinstall of iPhoto seems appropriate.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

Following the upgrade to 34.0.5, I can no longer access web pages of our SAN, airco, vSphere Web Clients, etc. How can I correct this?

Following upgrade to 34.05, can no longer access web pages of the SAN management interface, the airco system, the vSphere Web Client, etc. All still work in Chrome.
The airco system gives an error:
Firefox cannot guarantee the safety of your data on 10.32.16.50 because it uses SSLv3, a broken security protocol.
Advanced info: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap
The SAN management interface and vSphere Web Clients display an empty page. Not sure whether these also have problems due to SSLv3.
I understand you wanting to be cautious, but I seriously doubt I need to face an attack from our SAN. Please, at least give us an option to connect regardless.

hello, ssl 3.0 is disabled in firefox versions 34 & upwards by default - if you want to re-enable it you can do that like this which will make you vulnerable to the recently published poodle attack though:
enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''security.tls.version.min'''. double-click it, change its value to '''0''' and restart the browser.

Haveing problems with Safari. It gives me an error message. Safari can't open the web page, because it can't establish a secure connection to the server. It only seams to have a problem on https sites. Any help would be apreciated.

Safari keeps giving and error message. " Safari can't open the web page( insert web page here) , because it can't establish a secure connetion to the server.

The "s" in "https" indicates the site is a secure server--usually a site that will require a password. Connections to secure servers can be blocked by parental controls. Are you using any parental controls, either through OSX's settings (in System Preferences) or third party parental control software (such as Netnanny)? If so, check the settings to make sure they will allow the connection.

How to make a Web Page with Labview?

I have a Project: CONTROL A CAMERA OVER INTERNET (with Labview)
i try to make a Web Page but it s very difficult for me.I have Labview 8.6 and Internet Toolkit.
Why can i make a simple Web page?
Why can i control the camera over Internet?
Thanks...

This thread is quite old but there is a new answer that might better suite your needs... So, for those who are looking for the answer, have a look at WebPager plugin for LabVIEW here: https://labicom.net/labdeveloper/WebPager/ . It will make much better job (in most cases) than Remote Panels and Web Services suggested above. The only difficulty I see in your request is a 'camera' word. With WebPager you'll be able to control it from the browser (without any plugins or similar things), but the video image itself will pose problems... Still, it can be tackled.

I want to make a web page using labview.

I want to make a web page using labview. I have the internet tool kit. Where do I start. Till now all I have used labview is for industrial I/O and mmi. I have used various TCP UDP comms for network purposes, but I haven't ever done anything with Web page design.

The internet toolkit has some functions for generating and manipulating HTML, but it isn't really intended as a Web page authoring tool. I personally wouldn't use it for such a purpose, and I've done a good bit of Web programming in various different environments, including LabVIEW.
The true power of the internet toolkit lies in its ability to create LabVIEW VIs to handle CGI requests, the way that perl or PHP might be used in more traditional Web development. In the old days, this was really the only way to provide Web interactivity with LabVIEW on the back end. Here is a document that outlines how to start up the toolkit's Web server and check out the CGI examples that ship with LabVIEW. This is the best jumping-off point for creating your own pages, if you are planning to use the CGI functionality in the internet toolkit. Just examine how the HTML pages and the CGI VIs in the examples work together and begin to try out your own VIs.
Since LabVIEW 6i, LabVIEW has shipped with Remote Panel functionality that allows you to publish any LabVIEW VI in a Web browser without the burden of creating special CGI functionality. Furthermore, users can fully interact with the VI--buttons, graphs, string controls, etc. That's really a better solution if you want to make VIs available via the Web and aren't so much interested in CGI/transactional behavior. Check this out by choosing Tools >> Web Publishing Tool from LabVIEW.
I hope this info gives you some ideas about starting points for Web functionality in LabVIEW. Please follow up if you have more specific questions.
Best Regards,
John

How to make a Web page

I am trying to make a Web page with iWeb 09, but it is really confusing. I presently have a Go Daddy account that forwards my chosen domain name to the obsolete HomePage name I have. When I created the HomePage account, as I recall, it told me the name of the page very clearly, very simple. iWeb does no such thing! I select "Publish" and I get this crazy page that says "Go to your registrar's website (sic). Define web.me.com as the 'www' CNAME (alias) for your domain." That sentence makes no sense! What happened to the simplicity of HomePage. Anyway, I go to Go Daddy and, of course, there is not such thing anywhere obvious. This should be easy. I have a so called Mobile-me account, but it does nothing. What is up with this? Do I even need Go Daddy any more? Any help is very much appreciated.

Any iWeb url is going to be http://web.me.com/username/sitename - so no difference at all.
So when you open iWeb and click on the name of your site you will get the publishing options, so select publish to MobileMe and your site should publish there. Rather than visiting the link, close iWeb and empty your browser cache and then type in your url - http://web.me.com/username/sitename and your site should then come up.
If you want to use your domain name with iWeb you can. Close iWeb and log into your MobileMe account under System Preferences and then go to the Personal Domain name section and enter your domain name in here. Once this is done, close MobileMe and log into your account at GoDaddy.
You do not need to know exactly what CNAME means, but GoDaddy uses CNAME forwarding, so log into your GoDaddy account and go to the DNS setting section. Then set-up a new CNAME, which means forwarding 'www' which is your sub-domain to web.me.com and this should then be set up to forward to your MobileMe published website. Note that when setting this up your alias is your domain name and your host is web.me.com and you are forwarding your domain name (alias) to your host (web.me.com) as this is where your website is published.
If you want to check that your website has actually been published, then you can open System Preferences and click on iDisk and you can then log into your iDisk and go to Web/Sites and check whether there is a folder there with the name of your website on it. If so, then your site has been published.
I am also assuming that as you have posted this in iWeb 09 that you are in fact using iWeb 09?
