Code in will not appear in design view window of CS3 :(

When I was using CS2 and placed code in an HTML page like
this: <$JobTitle$> it would show up in the Design
window...but in CS3 it's invisible to the design view/window. Is
there any way to get it to show again? It would be a HUGE
help!!!

Yes, I do have it checked. It makes no difference with these
tags, unfortunately. :(
And I will admit, they'll be a dozen or so very happy people
if you can help me figure this one out.
I tried to compare all the settings under preferences between
CS2 and CS3, and they look the same. That's definitely why I'm
asking teh question here.

SSI do not appear in design view; CS4

All of a sudden.. my ssi's do not appear in design view in CS4. This is occuring in multiple web sites that prevously DID display SSI's
Yes.. I do have Preverances --> Invisible Elements --> Server Sides Includes: Show contents of include file IS checked
Yes.. I have checked both the local and remote information in Site definitions .. all are correct. (and none have changed since the problem emerged) All sites are set to site root relative.
Yes.. I have checked each include. None has any doc type, html or body tags.
No.. LIve View is not turned on
Yes.. the pages all validate
Yes.. I have tried to 'start from scratch' .. new site, new site definitions.. new .shtml pages and new includes. No love!
After inserting a new SSI using the insert menu (typical code result: ) the properties bar seems to get stuck .. displaying the ssi code and not allowing me to select other elements on the page to edit properties. A restart of Dreamweaver solves the problem. But boy is this annoying.
All of the includes do display properly when uploaded to the web server and viewed in a browser.
I've searched the forum.. and read any post that seemed even remotely relavant and have not been able to solve the problem.
I would really appreciate your help. I am a web designer and have used Dreamweaver for many, many years.

Nice site. I drive by that school quite often when I shop in Thousand Oaks.
Crashes, installation, JavaScript errors, and unexplained problems
If Dreamweaver is acting erratically, or if you see a message saying "the following JavaScript error(s) occurred", it's usually a sign of a corrupt cache file. The first thing to try should always be to delete the file cache. If that doesn't work, delete your personal Configuration folder. Full instructions are in Deleting a corrupted cache file.

Heading elements do not appear in design view

Hello,
heading (h1, h2 ...) elements do not appear in design view. anybody know how to fix this?
btw seems like DW gets worse with each successive version.

I really don't have any troubleshooting advice because I can't reproduce the problem and have not seen this problem being raised previously in the forums.
If you have deleted the personal config file and cache and that hasn't helped, it may be time to uninstall and reinstall.
Also double check your computer for any viruses or malware etc.,
Depending on what version you are using then, you may want to run the uninstall scripts to make sure you remove *all* files associated with the software and start from scratch.
If you are having problems with Creative Suite 3, I would suggest using the CS3Clean script: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html
There is a different version for Creative Suite 4: http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html.
WARNING: The CS3Clean and CS4Clean scripts remove from your computer EVERYTHING related with the CS3 and CS4 suites, apart from any documents that you have created using Adobe programs. Make sure you have your installation disks and serial numbers available for reinstallation.
If all else fails, then you may need to contact Adobe Technical Support.

My site will not load in design view?

I can not figure this out for the life of me but I am hoping someone here can give me a simple solution. I have spent endless hours trying to figure out why my site will not load when attempting to open any of the template or html files of my local site in design view. They open fine in Code view but when I click on design view, I get an hour glass that only goes away if I close dreamweaver using ctrl + alt + delete and use the task manager to close the process. My web address is www.thebluedot.net if that helps...
Any web pages outside of my actual site open fine so I am not sure what is causing the issue with my site itself? I have opened the template and have deleted all the code from it and attempted to view the file in design view and still get the same problem. Is there perhaps something simple that I am overlooking? My site worked fine in design view several days ago and I can not think of any changes that I made that may be causing the problem. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the entire adobe suite and I am still having the issue.
I am running on Windows Vista and have 4 gigs of ram and a 2.6 Core Duo processor if that helps.
Please help me out here. Really would appreciate any help you can provide!

Really appreciate your response.
I am using Dreamweaver CS4 and I tried deleting the config folder. Still no luck...
Eerything opens fine except for files fom my site. I have deleted the site from Manage Sites and recreated it but still am having the same problem.
When I delete the Configuration folder do I have to reset it up some how? Why is dreamweaver rendering all my other files outside of my site folder successfully in desgn view and not giving any other files an issue? I really hope I can get this resolved soon.
Again, appreciate your help.

Changes not appearing in Design View

I am just starting out in DW5.5 and I have been using a good tutorial but I have run into some buggy behavior. For example I have inserted a CSS style rule but the changes I am making (e.g., box height, color) -- though they appear in the coding view and in the Properties panel -- are not showing up in Design View. I have tried saving, quitting and then restarting but that didn't work. The "refresh" button is grayed out.
Any ideas?
thanks.

Some things to check:
You are working in a Defined Site, right? Sites > Manage Sites > New Site >...
Have you saved your CSS and HTML files?
Are you working with Valid Code?

Img Does not appear in Design View

Dreamweaver 8
Have an image that I would presume has a simple enough presence in the page...
<table width="985" border="1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" height="100">
 <tr>
 <img src="Includes/Images/ButtonsNBanners/bnrPrimaryTop.png" alt="test" width="1074" height="94" border="0" usemap="#Map1">
 </tr>
</table>
...and sure enough the image appears as expected at runtime.
But within Dreamweaver Design View it does not appear at all.
Why?
I have multiple other images on this page that all appear within the designer as expected, but not this one.
My main problem right now is that I need a map associated with this image and would really like to use DW's tools to create and position the <area> tags.
Has anyone seen this sort of behavior in DW8 before?
All input welcome and appreciated!!!

That was it KathH --- THANKS!!!
Had created the row w/out <td> cells to carry the top banner (sort of cheating) on spanning the cells i guess ( )
Anyway, re-wrote so that the banner table was independant and did not require span and picked up the data table independantly.
Problem solved and designer picked up the image precisely.
Thanks again!!!
Curious though that the image is dependant on the <td> tag. I would have expected any image called within the page to display in the designer regardless of location in the html.
Oh well, fixed and onto the next challenge.
Once more THANKS!!!

File will not open in Design View

I needed to add new file types, which I have done before with CS4 and CS5, but it doesn't seem to be working with CS6. I've followed the instructions here: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/change-add-recognized-file-extensions.html
but after restarting Dreamweaver CS6 the 'Design View' tab is still greyed out and I can only view in code view. What am I missing?

David: the filename(s) are not listed in the 'Open in code view' panel.
Okay, 6 hours later I decide to do what the instructions said NOT to do. Which is alter the exentions.txt file and the MMDocumentTypes.xml file directly IN the Dreamweaver CS6 folder. (original instructions said NOT to change them there because the program doesn't look there first. It looks in the User/Library/blah/blah folder.) Well, how about that, I change the files directly IN the Dreamweaver CS6 folder and now my files are available in 'Split' and 'Design' views. This should be helpful to others trying to add new extensions to their list.
Please let someone know they should change your instructions on the Dreamweaver website.

IPhone will not appear in iTunes on Windows 7 (64) no matter what I do.

Ok, so I recently updated my PC to Windows 7 (64), and set everything up again using Windows Easy Transfer. Originally iTunes installed using the version which the Apple Downloader picked up and was working reasonably okay. However, whilst I was playing around with the PC, I noticed that iTunes was installed in "Program Files (x86)". So i figured it must've installed the 32 bit version of iTunes on the PC instead, so off I went and uninstalled and installed the 64 bit version from here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1047
During that installation, I noticed it too installs to the x86 directory so I ignored it. However, this is where the fun started. At first I noticed that as soon as I plugged in my iPhone 4, iTunes would freeze up, effectively going into a "Not Responding" mode. This would rectify however immediately after unplugging the iPhone.
So after a few attempts and getting the same result, I started searching the web for a solution. After which I tried the following: Deleting the USB drivers and attempted re-install. Drivers were deleted successfully, however once clicking on "Check for hardware changes" the Apple Device never again showed up. I then opened iTunes again, plugged in the iPhone again, and now noticed that iTunes no longer froze, however the iPhone did not appear. From this point, here is a list of all the things I have done, from both folowing the support (http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/itunes/) and other people's advice:
- Tried a different USB port.
- Uninstalled all Apple drivers.
- Uninstalled all Apple Software, including Apple Mobile Device, Apple
Automatic Update & Quicktime.
- Searched the registry and removed all references for iTunes.
- Deleted all iTunes folders from the computer.
- Deleted AppData temporary folder from my profile.
- Turned off and restarted the iPhone.
- Checked for software conflicts.
- Restarted the computer after each change.
- Reinstalled Apple Automatic Update from a fresh download.
- Reinstalled iTunes using the Automatic Update application.
From here I started iTunes again and plugged in my iPhone. This time however I got a message saying something along the lines of "cannot connect iPhone, required software is not installed, this is a 32bit version of iTunes, please uninstall and reinstall the 64bit version of iTunes (this is a little confusing as I learnt earlier that you cannot install the 32 bit version on a 64 bit machine as you get an error during installation).
So, again. I uninstalled all of iTunes and associated software, downloaded the 64bit version of iTunes again - thinking the original version of the EXE was corrupted somehow during the download. After reinstalling, I plugged in my iPhone. It showed that the device drivers were installing, however at some point they failed. I then went back into device manager and uninstalled the USB driver and clicked on "check for hardware changes". This time the iPhone was found and appeared to install the drivers successfully when I plugged the iPhone back in... but low and behold, the iPhone was still not showing up in iTunes.
I have spent a good few hours on this, and am getting pretty frustrated. Does anyone on here have an ACTUAL fix for this problem?
The only thing I haven't done is do a factory reset of my iPhone, which I'nm hesitant to do, as I haven't had a chance to "export my purchases" off the handset to the PC as yet.
Cheers,
Steve
PS: Just out of interest, the iPhone still connects perfectly fine on my work (XP) machine.

I'm an applications developer and also run a part-time videography business. As such, I require more than 3.12GB of RAM. That is the physical limitation of a 32bit system. Pointless to stay on 32bit if you plan on having more than that much RAM.
I'm also not about to pay someone to fix my PC when I can do it myself. I was originally hoping for someone who had experienced the problem before to point me in the right direction so I didn't have to spend so much time trying to figure out what the issue was for myself.
Basically, in the end the problem was caused because right at the point in time when I chose to uninstall, and reinstall; Apple released a new version of iTunes. This version in turn had a requirement of iOS 4.2 to sync with the iPhone. This is a pretty embarrassing for Apple that they would release software reliant on other software before said software was released.
Had I realised I was downloading a newer version at the initial point of installation, this wouldn't have been an issue. I could've easily have rolled back iTunes to the previous version and gotten on with my life.
Another issue is that iTunes is not actually a 64 bit application. It masquerades as one to allow installation on the 64 bit platform.

Text not appearing in Design view

There is a twist here...
One one mac with CS5 Dreamweaver the text shows up in the design window just file
On ANOTHER mac with CS5 Dreamwearer certain text doesn't show up. The text is black so that isn't an issue. Why would there be a difference between MACS? I am also attaching the Preference file image.
Specifically the following AND another couple of places where BOLD FACE text is located:

everything was there. Often it is that I cannot edit with key

re-open then sometimes the delete key function is re-gained....
Funny.
Thanks again,

A single Firefox window with many tabs will not appear, yet other new windows will?

I've had this problem a few times before. .
Whenever I start up the browser, the one window with most of my tabs, about 30+ of them stays stuck in the taskbar. I know that the pages are loaded, yet for some reason, which I think may be that a single page has prevented the whole window, with all of the important tabs from appearing, to be the case.
So I was wonder if there is anyway to fix this while saving my precious tabs?
I can open up new windows by right clicking on the stuck window in the taskbar, which I have done in order to ask for help on this issue. I hope that this is understandable enough, thanks.

Please continue in your other post if you still have problems after deleting the below mentioned files or with a new profile.
*[[/questions/898647]]
It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
Delete the sessionstore.js [2] file and possible sessionstore-##.js [3] files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
* Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

PhpBB2 source code does not show in design view /CS3

I would like to customize a php bulletin board.
The default bulletin board page does not show in design view.
Is there a way to do it , such that php code can be written
by DreamWeaver via the design view ?

> The files I am trying to edit, or that is think I should
be trying to edit ,
> are
> index.php , and in the includes file template.php
If I am sorting this out correctly, which i am _not_ sure of
at the moment:
those aren't .tpl files.
they are .php files, and are part of the forum. They aren't
displaying in
design view because they are all php.
You need to find and edit the template files.
In previous link given:
http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?t=10764
<q>
So where do I find these great 'templates'?
Look in /templates/subSilver (thoroughout the FAQ I will be
using subSilver,
the default template. If you are using a different template
then change the
folder you look in accordingly). You will see a collection of
files there.
The templates are the ones with the file extension '.tpl' The
majority of
files in that folder are .tpl files. </q>
strongly suggest you make a backup copy of anything you try
to touch.

VB code not showing in Design View

I am working with a form that has VB code for validation and need to style it with CSS. The problem is the form is not visible in Design View. The code is there, the page renders and works fine in a browser but has anyone seen this issue before? I have a similar form that uses C# and it shows up fine in Design view.
the page is here: http://www.housing.ucsb.edu/digiknow/digiknow_form.aspx

Display problems are most often caused by malformed code or an imbalance in opening and closing <div> tags. Try validating your code and fix reported errors.
