CS4 Live View Won't Display External CSS

I have a simple .html file - all located on my local machine
with an external .css file located in the same folder as the .html
file. Everything displays fine in a browser. Live View won't
display items in my external css file. It displays items in the
inline file fine. If I move items from the external to the inline
file they will appear. Links are relative to the Document in the
site setup. No default images folder defined (images are in a
folder called "images").
I know it's something simple and dunderheaded. Just getting
back into html after a little hiatus. Any help greatly
appreciated.

Live view will work fine in a static site, though.

  • Manage Views - newly created view won't display

    Hi All,
    I was recently asked to create a portfolio view for a new senior project manager. I've done this before so I thought it would be fine. However, once I create the view and I go back in to the Poject Centre, the view won't display. It just shows
    a grey page. I then deleted the view I created and duplicated an existing view (but just changed the filter so it showed the projects managed by the senior's directs) but even that won't display.
    I don't understand why this has worked every time previously and not now. Any idea what it could be?
    Thanks in advance for any help/advice.
    Clair.

    Hi Clair,
    What does exactly happen? Can you see the view name in the view drop down menu?
    In case you don't, there are 2 main things to validate:
    Which type of view did you select? In order to be accessible from the project center, it has to be a project center view and not for example a project view. See screenshot below (unfortunately in french).
    Did you correctly associated the appropriate security category with the view? Indeed, if project manager are in the default project manager security group that is associated to the "my projects" category, you need to associate the newly created
    view with the "my projects" category.
    In case you see the view in the dropdown list but when selecting it, nothing is diplayed, check for filters in the project center page or directly in the view configuration. Check also if the account you're connecting with has proper rights to access the
    list of projects displayed by the view.
    Hope this helps.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 Live View - background-image does not display

    I'm teaching a basic Dreamweaver CS4 class, and one of my students happened upon a unique problem. 
    Although the students were not required to use LiveView for their assignment, the student noticed that when he clicked the LiveView button to look at his assignment, that the background-image property that he set on the #header DIV does not display.
    I tried duplicating his problem by building a similar site to his, using the exact same Dreamweaver Starter Page he used, but I'm not able to reproduce it the problem. If I define a new site using the files the student sent me, the problem comes back.
    I'm completely stumped. What could possibly be causing the background-image CSS property to stop rendering in Live View?
    Thanks for any help at all!

    Hi
    Check your students css code for invalid or missing mark-up, or linking to the background image. Another possible problem, (occurs on some sites but not all) is to check if the url is enclosed in quotes as these are occasionally required but not always, also check for spaces in file names
    e.g. - background-image: url(../images/yourimage.jpg); should work but occasional requires quotes as in - background-image: url("../images/yourimage.jpg");

  • Dreamweaver CS4 Live View

    When I view my layout in Live View, it shows as it should, but does not show in either FF or IE correctly. Anyone know why that happens?

    Hi
    You are not going to like this, but, the simplest way is to go back to using 'normal' css layout methods, (float etc,) for everything. Remember you would have to do this in an alternative css style sheet for IE6/7 anyway, and as they combined still have 20%-25% of the browser market share they cannot be ignored.
    Using the css display tables is still unfortunately 2-4 years away.
    I did say you would not like the answer .

  • Canvas and viewer won't display video correctly

    I have just reinstalled and then reinstalled 5.1.4. Picture plays on external video monitor but will not play in either canvas or viewer. RGB is set. Mirror on playback is set. Audio will play. Viewer will play on external monitor. Usually a still will be on viewer of canvas screen or just a jumbled mess. Sometimes with parts of display frame included in mess. Thanks for any help.

    Thanks for posting helpful info re my problem. Issue finally resolved. FYI in case you should encounter a similar problem. I failed to mention in my post I was running two video displays. The video card I was running on when I developed the problem had been my auxilary display and was too underpowered to run the canvas and viewer. I inadvertaintly switched final cut pro to that card and monitor when my previous main monitor quit. I simultaneously had a drive boot problem. All is well that ends well, I suppose. Only took 4 days to sort it out and could find no info in tech manual that would have led me to this.

  • DW CS4 Live View Not Working

    I have migrated within a week of buying DW CS3 to DW CS4 and
    have been spending the last 24 hours or so watching the excellent
    videos on lynda.com for CS4.
    I then decided to take the plunge and start producing my own
    content. The first thing I wanted to see was how to drag and drop
    an Excel file into an HTML page.
    Firstly, DW seemed to generate a file link only without
    presenting me with a dialogue box to let me choose what I wanted to
    do.
    Secondly when I then tried to switch to Live View I was faced
    with the message that
    Live View needs Netscape/Firefox Flash Plugin
    I have searched Help and the Adobe site for this plug in but
    have got nowhere ... can anyone please save me a load of time and
    heartache and tell me what I need to do?
    I thought it might be an Excel problem so I tried to do the
    same with a Word file and faced the same problem.
    Thanks for your attention!

    You can't. To import the content of an Excel file, select
    File > Import
    > Excel Document. Warning: it doesn't work very well. You
    get only the
    worksheet that was open when the Excel file was last closed.
    You also
    frequently get a lot of empty cells at the bottom. It's much
    better to
    copy and paste from Excel.

    Same answer. You can't drag and drop Word into an HTML page.
    Select File
    > Import > Word Document. This works much better than
    Excel.

  • Firefox 3.6.2 won't display the CSS correctly in VBulletin 4.1. Safari, Explorer and Firefox 4 beta work fine!

    My upgraded site: http://www.thesabrehood.org/thehood/forum/ has CSS that displays fine with Safari and IE and the new Firefox Beta 4... but it won't display with the latest upgrade of FF3.6x. Obviously you fixed some code in V4 beta.. how about fixing 3.6x while you're at it!!!!

    I also have this problem and it just started in the last week or so. It seems to be dependent on my home network and the problem only exists with firefox. I have used chrome and IE8 with no issues. I can verify tomorrow that it only exists in my network but one thing I was able to test is that the problem exists even on my linux boot. I am totally dumbfounded with this problem and I can't find anything that will allow the gmail page to load. All other pages I have tried load fine, all be it a little slower than normal but they load. If anyone knows of a difference between firefox and all other browsers on how it goes through the router I would appreciate the info cause I don't know of any differences.

  • Live View Won't Start - Firefox flash Plug In

    Everytime I try to start Live View I get a message saying 'Flash Plugin was not found. To view Live View install the Firefox Flash plug in from www.adobe.com. I click on the link and install the plugin but I still get the same error message.
    Any help?

    Good catch! Glad you got things working again.

  • VIEW won't display channels with same names

    Hello,
    We have recently installed DIAdem 2010 and are beginning to find channel name problems that we didn't have before with 9.1.
    Traditionally we have always set the name-oriented channel references to 'only channel name' and we have never had any problems when displaying multiple traces in VIEW. Now, we find that when we display more than one trace in VIEW with channel names that are repeated we get problems with the axis system display dialogue box. This dialogue box tells me that the X and Y channel names AND NUMBERS are the same for all three traces when in fact the data displayed is different. If I try and change one of the channels it immediately reverts back to the first channel with that name.
    I have attached a screen dump to help explain. The image shows a VIEW window with three speed time histories from three separate data files that have been loaded together. The three X channels will all be named 'time' but will be channel numbers 1, 4 and 7. The Y channnels are all 'speed km\h' and are numbered 2, 5 and 8. However, the dialogue box shows that all three traces are made from channels 1 and 2 despite the three traces appearing different. If I change one of the 'time' channels from number 1 to, say, number 4, then it reverts back to number 1 as soon as I move the focus to somewhere else in the box. Version 9.1 never had this problem.
    If I swith the name-oriented channel references to '[group index]/channel name' then the problem goes away - even thought the data displayed in the graph is the same!
    I'm not entirely clear on the reasons for settling on 'name only' references - probably historical - but I am even less clear on the effect of switching to '[group index]/channel name', particularly with the many autosequences that we use.
    Is this a bug that can be fixed?
    Regards, Si.

    Simon,
    The DataFinder is a database that DIAdem installs that integrates directly into the NAVIGATOR, so that you can easily query data files/groups/channels or compile properties from multiple files into correlated curves on a graph, etc.  You might be interested in the ability to look inside your data files in the NAVIGATOR to see the group/channel structure and their properties.  This is particularly interesting if you wan to load selected groups/channels from one or more files.

  • Desktop/Finder won't display external hd's, but will in Disk Utility

    Yesterday, I replaced the original hard drive on my late 2008 Macbook Pro (OSX 10.9.4, 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, 8 GB 1067 MHz DDR3 Memory) with a 1TB SATA hard drive matching the data transfer speeds of the original hard drive.  I backed up via Time Machine (on a 2TB) and even cloned onto a second external hard drive (now called 3TB) and had recovered documents (less than 100GB) from a crashed external hard drive (1TB from OWC brand) onto a third one (now called "1TB portable") with the intent of merging the files from the 1TB OWC crashed hard drive via the 1TB portable back onto an internal hard drive which now had some elbow room.  My problem is that after erasing & restoring the new internal hard drive using Disk Utility & Time Machine and reinstalling Mountain Lion and then Mavericks, the 3TB external & 1TB portable external hard drives went missing on my desktop and on Finder, but were still listed in the sidebar in the "Disk Utility".   Both external hard drives displayed and were able to be browsed through prior to my Time Machine backup & internal hard drive replacement.  Both the 3TB & 1TB portable drives were purchased new and specifically said they were for Mac OS X.  All drives are virus-free and are physically working.  Fortunately, on the 2008 Mac, the new internal hard drive is working beautifully like a brand-new Mac.  Additionally, the 3TB & 1 TB portable are NOT recognizable by other Mac's, but, again, were recognized and operational before I reinstalled OS X ML & Mavericks and restored from Time Machine.  Also, I've set my Finder Preferences to be able to see them.  Both were Mac formatted.  The only additional relevant info I think to add would be that in installing my hard drive, my OSX was Mavericks both before and after and that the Time Machine backup was within within the hour before replacing my hard drive so not much changed there time-wise. Once again, I had verified successful data transfer to the 3TB external & 1TB portable external hard drives immediately before Time Machine backup on the separate third drive.  1) How do I recover the backup data from the 1TB portable drive that I already recovered from the crashed OWC drive and 2) since I was obviously misapplying information from the forums somehow, how should I appropriately clone/transfer data in the first place?  Thank you in advance for your help.

    Hi,
    I have had a similar problem. I have a 1Tb portable Seagate drive which I have been using successfully for backups with time machine on a Macbook running Lion for 18 months.
    I decided to upgrade to Mavericks and experienced the same symptoms as above. The machine would not recognise the disk in finder. Disk utilities could see the disk but the partition was greyed out and several attempts to repair disk were to no avail. I am afraid that I made matters worse by unsuccessfully trying to reformat the disk.
    I made a backup of my macbook to another older mac and tried the hard disk with an old Windows laptop running Vista. It recognised the disk but said it need to be formatted. This I did.
    In the mean time I had upgraded my Macbook from 10.9.3.to 10.9.4. I am not sure if this made a difference.
    I then plugged the hard disk back in to the Macbook. It recognised it immediately and said that it needed initialising. This I did successfully and (MAC os extended Journal). The disk now works perfectly with 10.9.4 on the Macbook and I have been able to use Time Machine with it to make a backup.
    I know this does not help with rescuing data from the hard disc but at least I now have a usable hard disk!

  • Presenter view won't display

    So I made this fabulous keynote presentation to use in my classroom, and tried to use the presenter view so that I wouldn't forget what was coming up next (as I often do!).
    I connected my macbook to both a TV and a projector, but both times when I played the presentation, my screen was the exact same as what was shown on the TV and from the projector.
    Under presenter display preferences, I have checked:
    -Use alternate display to view presenter information (I also tried it with this unchecked)
    -show current slide, next slide, clock, time, and ready to advance indicator
    What am I doing wrong? I have a feeling it's probably something very obvious where I'll smack my forehead after someone tells me. But seriously, I tried all morning and couldn't do it.
    I'm running Leopard, but I would hope that isn't the problem.
    Merci beaucoup!

    Your OS X display preferences need to be set up for monitor spanning, and not monitor mirroring. In the System Preferences, in the Display pane, you can turn on this option.
    (If Keynote were smart, when a presentation is set to use the Presenter Display it would recognize when spanning isn't turned on, and would give you a warning or some explanatory information.)

  • Column View won't display some images downloaded by browser

    I have used the "Preview" in Column View to display images for some time and some images downloaded to folders will never display. The wheel just spins in the display area and CMD-i doesn't display the image either. If I open the image in the Preview application it displays! There is no detectable difference in the files that do and don't display in Col. View. I can get any image to show up by opening a graphic application and doing a "Save As" to reprocess the image and replace the balky one. But, this is not right that I should have to do this. I cannot determine whether a downloded image is going to have a problem or not as some from the same websites are OK sometimes and some are not. I had the problem with OS 10.2.8 too. Changing from iCab to Safari does not help.

    ACK!!!! Cancel all that because it happens using Firefox too. I have NO IDEA what in the world is happening to my system that would cause web pages to load incompletely.
    What a drag.

  • Simple table view won't display text after typed...

    I'm working with a table view in my application. I already have the code in place and the object prompted to the right items. Though once I build and use the table view, I simply cannot have the text I added to the table be viewable after I click to add a new row. I can provide more infomation upon request, thank you.
    Here's a snapshot of what I mean.

    More learning interactions (think you are speaking about a learning interaction, not a widget) only have a placeholder on the stage; to see the result you'll have to preview (in browser) and after publishing everything will be OK.
    It is certainly not only the table interaction that has such a behavior, did you try out all the interactions?

  • Mail viewer won't display attached photos, "Missing Plug-in"

    This is a brand new issue for me, after years and years of using Mail.  Today I sent an email to a friend, and attached a jpg (exported from iPhoto).  When I looked at that sent email in Sent folder, there's message "Missing Plug-in" in place of the image.  Last time I sent an image was about a week ago, it worked correctly at that time.  I'm very sure I haven't changed any Mail settings in the interim.  Is this just a problem with the viewer, or a problem with Mail itself?

    I've tried all the fixes listed in the discussions about missing plug-ins in Mail.  None of them worked.  I can see attachements in the emails, but when I forward them, the missing plug-in shows up in place of the attachments on the forwarded email.  I'm running the latest OS 10.7 on my Mac Pro and I just downloaded the latest Java app.  HELP!!

  • In design view, how to change the white panel background so white text displays? (I keep having to go to Live view to see it)

    When I'm adding white text it doesn't show up as the background input panel is white, and I keep having to go into Live view to see the paragraph spacings etc. Is there a way round this, other than changing the text colour in CSS to, for instance, black, and then changing it back before I upload the page?

    Hi, and thanks, but it's my fault, I think I'm describing it wrong!
    I've attached two screenshots from that area of the screen, one with the white text on the white background (showing as invisible) and the other where I've highlighted the text so you can see where it is. The background .jpg isn't a solid colour, it's a pattern, and if I added an equivalent pattern to the text area div, it wouldn't line up properly on all sreen resolutions, so that's why I gave that div a transparent background. When I go into Live view, the page displays perfectly, but in Design view I can't see to make amendments to the paragraphs etc.
