Can't view rest of document in Dreamweaver CS3

I'm a long-time GoLive user who has converted a number of
sites to Dreamweaver over the past few months. Yesterday I began to
convert an 1100-page PHP web site, representing my largest and most
complex client site. What I noticed immediately is that 90% of the
pages show only the menu bar in the "design view" area and are
blank below that. The code all displays properly in the code view
area. I'm really puzzled by this behavior.
The </head> tag shows in yellow in the design view.
Following that, I see the menu bar which is actually brought in as
an include file. Below that, every page is blank, except for PHP
template pages which are HTML pages and use slightly different
code.
In testing to try and isolate the problem, I found that the
page showed only when I deleted the line which called up the main
menu bar using an include file:
<?include('../components/menu-about.html')?><br>
What's curious about that is that this include command is
nothing new. Includes date back to the mid 1990's. There are other
include files in the HTML, and those display properly. I've checked
and double-checked the formatting for the include, and it is
correct. It displays properly in all browsers and is read fine in
GoLive. Only Dreamweaver chokes on this particular included object.
So I looked through the include file itself to see what I could
find.
It contains a couple of GoLive-specific Javascript function
calls in the head section, and the body tag has an onLoad call to
the GoLive Generated script file. However, when I removed those and
tried again, Dreamweaver still refuses to show the rest of the page
unless I remove the menu include from the code.
Any ideas how I can get past this annoying problem? I've gone
back to GoLive, hoping that CS4 might solve it, but this seems to
be a really weird one and I'd like to have a solution in place
soon. Thanks for any help you can offer.

This behavior (especially the yellow-highlighted markup) is
diagnostic for
invalid HTML (most likely duplicate <html>,
<head>, or <body> tags - or a
lack of the proper pairing of the opening and closing tags).
See if that's
the case.

  • Can I view my Pages document like an e-Magazine?

    Hi Everyone,
    Does Pages have this function?
    If I create a document or import full screen images into Pages and view it like an e-Magazine on my iPad.
    For example, after the picture has been imported, viewing it like a single page when I hold my iPad in a portrait position is fine but say when I am down to pages 14 & 15 can I view it like a double page spread when I turn my iPad on its landscape position.
    Can this be done?
    One more thing, does Pages have a function that simulate a "flipping page" effect?
    Thank you for your help!
    mal

    No if its an original .pages document. If it was exported as word .doc files or pdf then you might be able to open it with other apps like Documents to go...
    Hope this help you.

  • Why can't I open PDF files on my iMac. I installed Adobe Reader and accepted the end user license, as instructed then quit the application and relaunched it and I still can't view the PDF document. The screen comes out black. Please advice. Thanks

    Why can I view PDF files from the Web on my iMac even after I installed Adobe Reader and accepted the end user license agreement.I then quit the application relaunched it, as instructed snd still the PDF document comes out blank or black. Please advice. Thanks

    Are you saying that Adobe Reader or Preview can't read PDF file that you download? Or, are you saying that you can't display PDF files in your Safari broweer? If the latter, then delete any AdobePDFViewer plugins you find in /Library/Internet Plug-ins/ and restart. That should allow Safari to display PDFs in its window. BTW, that's the worst place to view them. Better to download them and use Adobe Reader or Preview.

  • How can I view a Word document  when it tells me that someone else is using the document? This is not true as I am the only one using this Word document which is on my desktop?

    I am working on my Ancestry and today when I tried to view my Word document which awaits me on my desktop, I was told that someone else was using it. There is only me to use it, so there couldn't be anyone else. What can I try to open this document again?

    Hi,
    If you want to move the document to other library immediately, the following workarounds for your reference:
    1.Create an Event Receivers for document library and use SPFile.MoveTo
    method to move file to the other document library.
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/microsoft.sharepoint.spfile.moveto.aspx
    http://www.learningsharepoint.com/2010/07/04/programmatically-copy-and-move-documents-in-sharepoint-2010/  
    2.Create a workflow using SharePoint designer and use Copy List Item Action to copy file, then delete the current document.

  • Firefox 3.6.13 will not open as the browser to view web pages from within Dreamweaver CS3

    I build websites with Dreamweaver CS3. I am operating on Mac OS 10.4.11 using Firefox 3.6.13 - The problem began on the last software update. I like to use Firefox instead of Safari. Up to the point where I upgraded, I never had a problem but now, when I go to preview/debug in browser, Firefox loads but it goes no farther than my home page ... it will not load the Dreamweaver page preview. Safari works fine. So I think there may be a problem loading 3.6.13 past the startup page.

    Here's the fix. Dump Firefox 3.6.13 and Re-Install Firefox 3.5.16. Problem solved.

  • Can't view Wordpress PHP files in Dreamweaver CC.

    Mac. MAMP.
    I have downloaded my full site hosted on xxxx into MAMP htdocs.
    Download directly from root public_html on host.
    I keep getting "Dynamically-related files could not be resolved because the site definition is not correct for this server"
    Even if I go "live view" and set - Web URL to: www.indochinaexplorers.com (my site) - instead of http://localhost, it comes up with a lot of PHP boxes.
    Been through all tutorials for more than a week.
    Have been through all possible settings and configurations under "Manage Site"
    Did a Test - New PHP page. Same thing, it does not show, design or live view.
    So stuck,
    Thanks Peter

    I have the same issue and none of the alleged Guru's that answered have provided anything useful.  Solid Web Design is about workflow, which could lead to innovation if people would stop reverse innovation language...Dreamweaver could be a viable wordpress solution if it worked as it's supposed to. CC is a bust as the focus has shifted to mobile first. 
    There are no "real pages" for you to edit in DW; just code fragments.
    Wordpress is dynamically driven but this is untrue.  Every PHP file in a theme has structure and is a "real page".  Fragments have to be in a "file" to be called, they are not called out of thin air.  If I want to style page.php, it cannot be done without first adding selectors.  #mainContent for example. The only thing php does is add dynamic functionality.  Page.php can be altered and saved as Page_fullwidth.php, Page_Music.php ,Page_webDesign.php and they can all have a different layout in the same theme.  Else there would be no templates to choose from in the static page section of the WP Admin area. 
    Themes drive the appearance and functionality of your WP site.  If you need a new look, find a different Theme and install it from your WP Dashboard.
    How does this help?
    Unless you are very familiar with PHP code and more specifically the PHP code WP uses, you will not have good results working in DW.   You really must use the WP Dashboard to manage your content, Themes, and plugins.
    This has nothing to do with the issue.  The issue is Dreamweaver simply does not allow propper editing of wordpress sites in a dynamic environment.  No one ever said they didn't know anything about php, creating wordpress themes, plugins, and so on...
    Dear next genius..Since the question has already been asked, I won't ask it again, but the original inquiry is my issue as well.  If you have figured out how to make this work, please respond, if not, please don't.

  • Can't view XML Publisher document from JDeveloper environment

    Something has happened to my JDeveloper environment so that I can no longer view XML/BI Publisher output in the JDeveloper runtime web pages. I have developed pages using both DocumentHelper.getOutputURL and TemplateHelper.processTemplate functions. At rutime I am getting an error logged like:
    java.io.FileNotFoundException: \usr\tmp\xdoxxxxxxxxxxx.fo (The system cannot find the path specified)
    However, when I actually deploy and run the pages in EBS they seem to work fine.
    I'm guessing it's some sort of configuration problem with my OC4J server but can't seem to find the details anywhere.
    Thanks for any help you can give me.

    Anyway, thanks to all who tried to help.

    In Dreamweaver they can be read in Code View.
    HTML code can be viewed in any browser
    In Dreamweaver they can be read in all views.

  • Widget Browser in Dreamweaver CS3

    can you use the widget browser in Dreamweaver CS3?

    Hallo Uta,
    das wird schwierig, denn Adobe unterstützt diese Formen nicht mehr. Ausserdem sind die meisten dieser widget mit veralteter Spry-Technik erstellt, was - ich zitiere: oft zu schlechten Ergebnissen bei neueren Geräten führt. Daher wäre es besser Du suchst eine moderne jQuery-Plugin-Galerie, Google will be your friend.   Hier nur eine kleine Auswahl brauchbarer Links:
    http://www.malsup.com/jquery/cycle/, http://www.dwuser.com/easyrotator/  usw. oder per java

  • Dreamweaver CS3 and Sourcegear Vault?

    Has anyone found a way to get Sourcegear Vault (SGV) to work
    with Dreamweaver CS3? I don't have problems with using Dreamweaver
    8 with SGV, but after upgrading all of our stuff to CS3 I'd rather
    use the new version. Any thoughts? The SGV DLL used to go in The
    "\program files\common\dreamweaver\source control\" folder, but I
    can't find an equivalent folder in Dreamweaver CS3. Can anyone
    point me in the right direction?

    fnOptionF12 will work.
    fn tells the keyboard to send the F-xx instead of the special function.
    And like I said there is an option in the System Preference to reverse the use of fn and make the F-xx keys work as F-xx instead of the special function.

  • Insert Flash Video using Dreamweaver CS3

    Hello,
    If I were to import an FLV into Flash CS3, I would have the
    ability to add text or images to the movie as needed. However, I am
    testing Dreamweaver's ability to insert a Flash video directly onto
    a web page, without the use of Flash CS3. I'm using Progressive
    Download with the "Halo Skin 3" component. My question is: can the
    Flash Video component inserted by Dreamweaver CS3 be edited somehow
    using Flash CS3? I would be attempting to add text to the first
    frame of the movie.
    Thanks.

  • Can I view a single page of a document, previously created in Microsoft Word, in its entirety on the screen (ipad or iphone) without having to drag the page, i.e. one page per screen?

    Looking to choose an app for viewing word documents, but need to be able to view a complete page per screen (preferably full screen) without having to 'nudge' the screen 'up' to view the bottom of the page.
    Will Pages do the job?

    Not exactly.
    You will find yourself nudging the page up or down a bit. Earlier versions of iOS Pages allowed "full page view" but that really wasn't full page either. You can squeeze the view to fit, but as soon as you release it, the document springs back to normal size - it is only about a line off from what you are looking for.
    An alternative would be to view a Pages Document as a PDF and view the PDF in an app such as GoodReader - there you can see both the top and bottom edges of each page. There are many other PDF viewers available in the App Store.
    Hope this helps.
