Can I use text edit to build a web page using html ?

I'm building a website for a class project and am using text edit with html. I have been successful creating a webpage, but everytime I save and reopen text edit, I am unable to continue working on my original project. Suggestion?

You have force TextEdit to append .html at the end of each new file, cause it insists on using .txt if plain or .rtf if fancy. And as for OPENING preexisting .html files, Safari will try and beat you to it. So you either have to control-click the victim and do an Open with... or drag and drop it onto TextEdit on the dock.
I'd suggest you get a proper HTML editor instead, unless your teacher is a sadist. The Mozilla Project's SeaMonkey browser has a very competent editor to use. And it allows you to upload the results directly without requiring further code.

Hi pasumarthi,
Great question! Try putting the following code in the Private Sub RSWVBAPage_afterPlay(). If you run into problems, please reply to this message. This code can also be copied into a custom vba test if you wanted to test the number of links and images on the page against a specific number.
'Variable declarations
Dim images As Collection
Dim links As Collection
Dim resultbImages As Boolean
Dim resultbLinks As Boolean
Dim item As Object
'Initialize variables
resultbImages = False
resultbLinks = False
'Get all the elements that have a tag of IMG
resultbImages = RSWApp.om.FindElements(images, , "IMG")
'Get all the elements that have a tag of A
resultbLinks = RSWApp.om.FindElements(links, , "A")
Call RSWApp.WriteToLog(, , "There are " & images.count & " images on the page")
Call RSWApp.WriteToLog(, , "There are " & links.count & " links on the page")

Why after a recent systems update, I can't copy text from the internet (every web page) and paste into word?

MacBook Pro Community,
I need help. After a recent systems update this week, I can not longer copy and paste text from the internet. I have never had this problem before. I have searched through systems preference and google'ed it. Please help!!
Thank you!

A book is a lot of work and in the end needs to not only be openable, printable, but also be laid out with facing pages amongst other numerous desirable features.
None of which suggest Pages 5 to me.
If you want to persist in Pages 5.5 you will have to laboriously cut and paste the content into one file and hope that will still be usable when you are finished.
Or you could export to Pages '09 or pdf format and assemble it there.

How can I add a podcast episode to an existing web page using iWeb?

How can I add an episode to an existing web page using iWeb?
I could probably figure this out but I am afraid if I make changes to the site and re-upload it to the podcast area I will have just doubled it. I see them repeated from time to time.
What is the proper protocal? Thanks

Hi apple-owner,
Method 1.
To create this scatter-plot, I selected the whole of Columns A and B. (Shift click on the Column reference tabs).
The plot ignores blank rows, but they are "ready" for new data:
Method 2
If you did not select whole columns, you can extend the "active" rows. Rows 1-5 selected:
Add more data rows and drag the fill handle (small white circle, bottom right) down

I often have to open files .cue with Text Edit. Right Click, Open with, Others, Text Edit. Is it possible to put Text Edit in the menu avoiding to use "others"?

I often have to open files .cue with Text Edit. Right Click, Open with, Others, Text Edit. Is it possible to put Text Edit in the menu avoiding to use "others"?

The easiest way is to keep Textedit in the Dock and drag the .cue file(s) to the Dock icon.
You can also create an Automator Service:
Open Automator
Select: Service
Select Service receives selected [files or folders] in [Finder]
and:
Then select one or more .cue file, right click (or Control-click) on the selection to display the contextual menu. Scroll to the bottom of the contextual menu and select Services -> (what you named the Service).

Using text edit to view html code

Why does text edit open a web page as if it's a web browser??? I want to use text edit to edit my html code and I can't open a web page in plain text view...it tries to render the page. Doesn't Apple have a text only app like Notepad for Windows?

I searched for text edit, not textedit - until after I posted this. sorry

Text editing - can you add text editing options on the 'in-browser editing'

Text editing - can you add text editing options on the 'in-browser editing' tool?

You can only replace existing content, not edit the page structure. Refer to the respective help sections.

I started to learn HTML, and I'm using text edit and everything is going fine, when I save the file with a .html extension and open it with safari I only view the code and not the webpage that was supposed to be created.

I started to learn HTML, and I'm using text edit and everything is going fine, when I save the file with a .html extension and open it with safari I only view the code and not the webpage that was supposed to be created.

That is because you don't have a web server configured and running to serve the html page. In order to see the page in a browser you need to access it using a url similar to http://localhost/~yourUserName if you are serving the page from your user account.
Prior to Mountain Lion you could go into web sharing and turn on the web server. With Mountain Lion there is no option, other than using terminal, to turn on the web server. The web sharing menu item has been removed in Mountain Lion. Apache is still on your computer but it will take a little searching these forums or the Internet to find how to turn it on.
If you want a graphic user interface to turn on/off the Apache server you could download and install a server application like xampp, http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html. I use this and it works well.

When i put in a compact flash card iphoto automaticaly comes up to import my photos. I have to exit out of iphoto to use the editing softwear that i prefer to use every time. It is very annoying. How do i prevent this from happening?

iPhoto Menu -> Preferences -> General -> Connecting Camera opens.... And select your preferred app.
You can also make the same choice in the Image Capture (in your Applications Folder) and Aperture preferences.

Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed

We are planning to Silent print a PDF from a web page using Flex. We are targeting Windows and Mac with Arcobat reader installed. I have tried using the AIR appliaction and it worked, But our requirement is NO INSTALL to the user machine for the silent printing. It is just from web page and silent printing to the default printer to the desktop/Laptop. Can anyone share your thoughts and experience with us. It will be very helpful..
For AIR : I tried the thread Re: AIR and PDF showing/silent printing

Hey CodeMonkey & Ross,
Did you either of you ever find a solution? I'm stuck too, it seems I can get remote printing on all these PDFs to work but it just prints a blank page since I've been using Javascript in the browser, not Adobe's (they are Engineering drawings that I do not have permission to edit so I can't just insert code into them but I need to make work instructions). I've been scouring the internet for hours now, it seems that this thread is the only relevant/useful one at this point. No one else was trying to achieve this for similar reasons to mine.
Thanks guys,
Lox

IPhoto still won't make web pages using the comments field

I am someone who makes use of the comments field in iPhoto. I don't edit the title, because I thought it edited the photo file name (perhaps only in earlier iPhoto versions). Unfortunately, the Apple's tools for making a web page from iPhoto '08 seem to still use the title field only and not the comment field. That means that I have to edit all titles (to blank or a proper title) if I just want to show an annotation on just a few photos in a web page. At least the comments field defaults to blank, so I normally use it, along with the Better HTML plugin to make web pages, http://www.geeksrus.com/software/betterhtmlexport/
Now, the web pages produced by Apple are now as good as and even better than the BHTML templates, and I'd like to use them. But this problem with the comments means I can't quickly convert my old photo albums to something that makes nice web pages using my annotations with the iPhoto tools.
Does anybody know of any solutions to this problem? E.g. a script to copy the comments field to the title field?

I know what you mean. I can't believe that after so many versions of iPhoto that have supported publishing of some sort that such a basic and obvious feature still hasn't been implemented. It can't take that much effort to add. I'd rather have that than the new (and IMHO completely useless) "Events" feature. Speaking of which, does anyone know if there is a way to turn it off? It's annoying the heck outta me. I hate it.

How to embed 3D models in web page using JAVA?

Hello
I'm doing a project at University to create a virtual tour of a village. I am creating the buildings in MAYA using polygon planes and cubes and then exporting to VRML.
I plan to embed each individual model into a separate web page. Then when the user clicks on a location in a 2D map they will be taken to the web page containing that building.
However, I can't work out how to embed these 3D models into web pages using JAVA. Can anyone help me with this, please?
Also, I've been told to use JAVA 3D to interact with the project but am unclear as to how JAVA 3D would be used in this project - aqny ideas/suggestions welcome!
M.

If you use Java-plugin, you can embed Java3D in a web page.
Here is the URL(http://www.geovista.psu.edu/products/demos/LorenzAttractor3D/index.html) which used Java3D.
I hope this helps.
