Context path in CSS style?

Is there a way to code facesContext.externalContext.requestContextPath in to a CSS file?
I'd like to specify a background image in my Body selector, but the path breaks for jsp's in different directory levels.

Why, yes you can!
Just prepend the path to your image with: yourAppName/faces/
For Example:
background-image: url(/myAppName/faces/images/background_address.gif);

Cannot view css styles in design view

Is there a way to get Dreamweaver to display style in design
view when the css files are in virtual folders?
Have tried using ASP (Vbscript) snippet to write in the
server URL and using Liveview, but still doesn't display. It
appears that DW only recognizes hard coded relative links or hard
coded full URLs.
Browser displays these documents with no errors.
Please Help! I have users who will be confused attempting to
edit the documents without visible style, and need to use the
virtual folders.
Thanks.

Try using Design Time Stylesheets.
Open the Design-Time Style Sheets dialog box by doing one of
the following:
1. Right-click in the CSS Styles panel, and in the context
menu select
Design-time, or
2. Select Text > CSS Styles > Design-time.

CSS styles disappear in new template-based pages

hello: having some trouble. i've created a template for a new website and everything looks ok, but when i attempt to create a new page based on the template, all the css styles i've created disappear. i have a hunch it has something to do with the "body" stlye overriding everything else.
any suggestions are much appreciated.

The first suggestion I would have is to make sure the css that is being linked is not in an editable region on the template. Next, make sure the paths are correct. If both are in order you may need to post the template code.

CSS style -Background not showing ?

hi everybody ,
first of all i'm quite new to Dreamweaver and webdesign word so ... sorry if i make mistakes
when trying to prewiew my site , or in dreamweaver itself , i cant see my background (is a .png file made whit photoshop , a simple gradient whit some effects)
i tryed to use the site manage , and set the image default folde , but this didn't resolved anything !
this is my HTML code (oh yes , i'm writing the site in HTML5):
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Untitled Document</title>
<link href="CSS/SitoCSS.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="Principale"></div>
</body>
</html>
And the CSS style page:
@charset "utf-8";
/* CSS Document */
body {
          background-color: #03F;
          background-image: url(Images/sfondo.png);
          background-repeat: no-repeat;
          margin-left: 0px;
          margin-top: 0px;
          margin-right: 0px;
          margin-bottom: 0px;
#Principale {
          font-family: "Palatino Linotype", "Book Antiqua", Palatino, serif;
          background-color: #000;
          float: left;
          height: auto;
          width: 901px;
thank you all
Bye !

Without seeing the live page its difficult to analyse BUT here's a couple of things you could look at:
1) Is the name of your folder really Images with a cap 'I' or is it images with a lower case 'i' ?
Images/sfondo.png
2) Is your png file saved as RGB and not CYMK color space?
3) Looking at what you have posted the path to your bg image is probably incorrcet
background-image: url(Images/sfondo.png);
Should be: (note the ../ infront of the Images folder name):
background-image: url(../Images/sfondo.png);

CSS Style sheet not working in DW4

I am new to Dreamweaver CS4 and have been following the tutorials for Beginners on Adobe TV.
I have used a Standard Layout, 2 columns, Header, Footer, Sidebar.
I have created and saved the CSS Style Sheet as suggested in a folder with the CSS panel.
I have made changes to the web page with CSS and can see the changes in Design View on my screen.
However, when I view my trial site in a browser, none of the Style changes are visible. Looking at the XHTML code,
the path to the CSS Style Sheet appears to be correct. What am I doing wrong?

Close your meta tag.

Did you save your styles in an external stylesheet? If you
did, you
must link this sheet to your pages. Open one of your pages
and make a
link to your stylesheet.
In the header section of your page you can put the following:
@import url("path to your stylesheet");
or: <link rel="stylesheet" href="path to your stylesheet"
type="text/css">
Repeat this procedure for all your pages.
After you have done this, you can apply your styles to the
pages with
the property inspector.

This setting couldn't have made any difference in the linking
to your
CSS....
Something *did*, though, but we'll never know what it was you
did, now.
Glad you got it going.

CSS styles not displaying in Contribute CS3

On some (but not all) of the computers at this organization, when you click "Edit" in Contribute, it doesn't show the CSS styles; in other words it displays in Times New Roman, and the top menus are spread accross the page; this means that users have to scroll way way down the page to see the content they need to edit; it also means that the page doesn't look at all like it looks in a browser.
Any ideas? Is this something to do with Internet Explorer?
Thanks for any suggestions.

Make sure the address bar in Contribute is displaying your URL and not a file path.
Your administrator can remedy this by going to the role settings and making sure the Home address is set to the URL. If you can't get the admin to update the role settings, you can enter your URL into the address bar and then the site should be able to find linked style sheets.

[svn] 3148: You can now use CSS styles to set the default text format for TextView.

Revision: 3148
Author: [email protected]
Date: 2008-09-08 15:01:15 -0700 (Mon, 08 Sep 2008)
Log Message:
You can now use CSS styles to set the default text format for TextView. It no longer has any formatting properties. It supports the entire set of Gumbo text format styles.
SkinnableComponent and Group now also support all these styles. However, skins such as ButtonSkin, TextInputSkin, and TextAreaSkin continue for now to specify instance styles on their TextBox, TextGraphic, and TextView, in order to give them a Gumbo look rather than a Halo look. So if you try setting, for example, the fontSize on the Application, it doesn't yet affect the text format of a Button, TextInput, TextArea, etc. unless you remove the instance style in the skin.

Hello xhpx,
In your media queries your changing the .gridContainer but the #LayoutDiv1 is the same. The reason the color goes away is the media query for mobile sizes doesn't have the background color. Though I would remove #LayoutDiv1 from any media query since it doesn't need to change.

hope this helps.

also, creating a jsfiddle or just a link to the site could make it easier for debuging.

Can the number format be controlled with custom css styles

I have a union query where the first query returns a count that I formated as a number '999,999' and the second query returns percentages that I want formatted as '99.9%' I can use conditional formatting to determine which part of the query the result came from but conditional formatting doesn't allow me to control the number format so I was wondering if custom css styles would allow me to control the format. Is converting the number to a character and concatenating a % sign ia better option. I was able to do this using BI Publisher and a different apporach but I want to be able to do it with Answers.

Problem with Css styles not showing in live view or when i browse

I am using Mac osx 10.6 and building website with Dreamweaver CS5. Sometimes div tags i create not showing styles or rendering in live view or when I browse but showing in design view. I looked in dreamwever faq and they talk about not showing in design view to toggle the display styles. That is not the problem becuase it is check marked and I tried turning off and turning on and made no difference.I am using firefox browser.
It happened before the other day too. But all of my other pages in this site that i have created the same way building with div tags and css styles. So not sure what the problem is. Maybe someone has a suggestion here.

Can't figure out how to rename css style in mx

Hello,
I can't figure out how to rename css style in mx. I have the
style selected in the proprety inspector. Is there supposed to be a
rename option at the bottom of the same dropdown box? There is
option to edit style and a few others in same dropdown box... but
no rename option. Please be specific... I have looked it up on the
internet... but still cant find the option.
Thanks,
PoJ

Do a Find and Replace to find name1 and replace with name2.

Safari 5.0.3 not loading CSS style sheets 1st time through

When I go to my ecommerce site's https payment screen, the page HTML loads OK but the formatting is missing (so the screen is really messed up). If I hit the page re-load function the page re-loads with all the formatting corrected. It behaves the same with both the Mac and Widows versions of Safari 5.0.3. The problem did not occur on earlier versions of Safari (i.e., the Mac I use for testing the site worked perfectly on the now problematic page until I upgraded to the latest version of Safari).
The problematic page works fine with all the other browsers that I have tried (IE7, IE8, Firefox, Chrome)
My guess is that it has something to do with some @import url("css style sheet") directives that are imbedded at the beginning of the master style sheet for the page.
This problem will stop all Safari 5.0.3 users from navigating our site so it is quite serious.
Any help on this issues would be greatly appreciated.

Further investigation has revealed that the following error message is being generated within Safari during the first time the that the page is loading,
"Refused to load from document base URL. URL found within request."
The <base> directive in the HTML, in this instance, is referring to a different URL than the one that the page is running from. The page with the problem is running on a remote server and back referencing to the home server for the <base> reference. This fails when the page first loads but seems to be accepted if a page-reload is done. It also works on all other browsers that have been tested.
Is this related to a security setting in the browser?

Table error - Context Path Cannot Be Resolved (Last Node Is Empty)

Hi All,
I am dynamically building up a context node called PoList which is used to hold the contents of a table.
My BAPI is called and a routine transfers the contents of the BAPI context node across into the POList context node. This is rendered correctly on the screen. There is a routine which filters the results based on a vendor. The code works fine when some records are found but when no records are found, I get the error "Context Path POLIST.EBELN Cannot Be Resolved (Last Node Is Empty) ".
The cardinality of the PoList node is 0..N. This should mean that 0 records is valid.
The ABAP which fills the context is pasted below :
data:
    Node_Z_Bapi_Po_Combined             type ref to If_Wd_Context_Node,
    Node_Changing_Po                    type ref to If_Wd_Context_Node,
    Node_T_Header                       type ref to If_Wd_Context_Node,

   stru_C_T_Header    like line of itab_C_T_Header,

    Stru_Polist                         type If_Componentcontroller=>Element_Polist.
data:
lri_Element    type ref to if_Wd_Context_Element,
loa_Elements   type Wdr_Context_Element_Set.
navigate from <CONTEXT> to <Z_BAPI_PO_COMBINED> via lead selection
Node_Z_Bapi_Po_Combined = wd_Context->get_Child_Node( Name = IF_COMPONENTCONTROLLER=>wdctx_Z_Bapi_Po_Combined ).
navigate from <Z_BAPI_PO_COMBINED> to <CHANGING_PO> via lead selection

    if i_lifnr is initial.
      insert stru_C_T_Header into table itab_C_T_Header[].

      insert stru_C_T_Header into table itab_C_T_Header[].
    endif.
endloop.
data : W_LINES TYPE I.
describe table itab_c_t_header lines w_lines.
if w_lines eq 0.
    node_Polist->set_lead_selection_index( 0 ).
    CALL METHOD NODE_POLIST->INVALIDATE.
else.
    node_Polist->bind_Table( itab_C_T_Header ).
    clear itab_C_T_Header[].
endif.
I would have though that invalidating the node would blank the context node and mean that the table is empty but instead I get an error.
Please help.
Richard

Hi Richard,
The problem here is that some UI element tries to bind against a node where the parent node is empty. You have to make sure that the last but one node has at least 1 element, otherwise you should hide the UI element (visibility = NONE).
If the lead selection were empty, the corresponding error message would tell you this, but it explicitely says: "Last Node is Empty", and you can trust it.
One possibility to have at least one element in the node is to change the cardinality to 1..n. If you have a supply function for this node, you have to make sure that there is at least 1 element (bind empty structure to the node), otherwise the framework creates the first element for you.
Ciao, Regina

I messed up my CSS styles, should I just start over?

I've been working on a template for a couple weeks. And I changed a couple CSS styes by creating new ones. I didn't really know what I was doing, and now my template's navigation bar has disappeared and my main background has shortened up and is completely out of sync with the text. Is there anyway I can restore my original css styles or do I have to start completely over?
Thank you for your help.
EDIT:
http://img685.imageshack.us/i/dreeamweaver.jpg/
Here you can see a visual of what's happened. All of my pages are now like this. Do you think I can fix this?

when I preview it in design mode in Dreamweaver the nav bar is gone and background is shortened. How is this happening?
Viewing anything in DW's design view is not the best way to judge your website. You should always use "Preview in browser" functionality. I normally go to:
File >> Preview in browser
and select FF4 first and then IE8 (that is all I have on my machine). These two browsers will cover 90% of the user base in this world.
