CSS only menus - help please!

Please could someone point me in the right direction...
I am making a website and am finding that I want to add
sections on the fly. At the moment I am raw coding the HTML pages
which use external CSS. To save time updating every page when
anything changes on the menu, I want it to be placed into a CSS
file and applied to the aforementioned pages. I have seen how this
was done only once about a year ago and forgotten the what it was.
So far I have not been able to find a resource which says how to do
it, only CSS formatted HTML which I already use!
Thanks

Not CSS: SSI.
Look up server side includes. Put the menu into the include
file, and
call that file into each page.
You'll have to "touch" each page once, to remove the embedded
menu and
replace it with the call to the include file. But once you've
uploaded all those pages, after that any change to the menu
is made
only in the include file - and that's all you have to upload.
Short term pain for long term gain.

    Please close this thread, I have managed to get a hold of a DVD including all the drivers, so I suppose that will work, if not one way then another.
    Thank you for the quick answers.

  • Text/slideshows/menus--help please!

    Hello. I'm sorry if this turns out to be a little longwinded question, but I'm feeling a little overwhelmed and need to get a better understanding of some things before I can finish this project.
    I am editing a video and authoring a DVD for a non-profit group, and after each segment, they want a section where text information comes up on the screen, and then pauses until the user selects the next or previous frame. I am trying to figure out the best way to do this, that will allow for the most flexibility and simplicity. I originally started out making the graphics in Photoshop and then saving each layer as a TIFF and importing these into a slideshow. The main problem with this was that the clients wanted little buttons saying next, previous, etc. and I don't know if this is possible in a slideshow. Also, I can just imagine a couple weeks down the line they will want to change the text on some of the slides and I will get confused trying to go back into Photoshop and alter it and hope that it refreshes in DVDSP.
    My next thought was perhaps there is a way to create "slides" by using menus but I'm not sure if this is a viable option either because it doesn't seem like you can control the text formatting in menus very much. To enter text on a menu do you have to create a button or drop zone? I can't seem to figure out a way to create a bounding box so that the text wraps inside--everything seems to just extend to the borders of the frame. Am I barking up the wrong tree here?
    I guess ideally what I'm looking for is a simple solution to this where I can copy and paste the "slide" text and apply a style to each frame or menu so that everything looks consistent. Also, it would be nice if there would be a way to change this style so that it applies to every slide in the project (I'm coming from a web design background here and thinking of Cascading Style Sheets).
    Also, I bought a DVDSP book and it suggested creating graphics at the dimension of 720 x 534 and then letting DVDSP stretch them as it imports. Any thoughts on this? Is this the best way to get good image quality?
    Okay, I humbly ask for any tips or assistance you can offer and thank you kindly in advance.
    Warmest regards,
    Chris

    Just checking thru the specs - there is a limit to the number of tracks you can use 99, but as far as menus are concerned the only limit that might apply is the numbver of VOBs which is up around 3200. If you've got more menus than that your viewers will be crossed eyed anyway so you can probably just bluff your way thru it!
    Layered menus - AFAIK the way the layered menu works is you import your layered PS file, each layer representing each different button's highlight and activation state. So if you wanted to have say 3 buttons on a page and when you highlight each button you fill an area of the page with say text describing what that button does - these layers can overlap because you're only one highligh will appear at a time. In reality DVDSP is generating separate menus for each of these highlights and creating automatic menu jumps, this is why you cant have motion video or audio under a layered menu, because there is no way for it to keep in sync as the button states jump from menu to menu. My personal feeling is as you need to create all the graphics anyway you may as well do it page by page and know where each link is going, especially in a long detailed project. If you wind up in a muddle with 100 layered menus you might as well start again.
    Hope that helps some - probably not the answer you wanted though.
    Cheers

  • Foreign Language in Finder & App Menus, help please?

    Hello,
    I'm trying to help an elderly, but adventurous new Mac user who's switched from PC/Windows and he needs to have his Finder and App menus in Hebrew. I experimented on my MacBook Pro, but was unable to switch the Language Menus to Hebrew, even though I have Hebrew Fonts installed and apparently have Hebrew capability because in the System Prefs>International>Language Panel, I was able to move the Hebrew Language option (in Hebrew letters) to first in the list above English. And I adjusted the Format and Input Panel attributes accordingly. But even Logging Out and In and Restarting would not switch the menus. Is there something I'm missing? Doing wrong? I hope to attempt this on his machine tomorrow. Any help or advice will be sincerely appreciated! Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    David

    What I need to do and have been unable to do, is get Hebrew to be the OS system font - you know, in the menus and dialog boxes.
    I understood you perfectly before.
    What you are describing is called "OS localization". Is has nothing at all to do with the presence of Hebrew fonts on your machine or your ability to read and write Hebrew. It requires that someone has translated all the menus and dialog boxes into Hebrew. Those translations have only been done by Apple for the 18 languages which are listed in the tech specs for OS X, and Hebrew is not yet among them.
    Whether the firms that sell Mac's in Israel have perhaps done these translations for themselves and offer them to their customers I don't know.

  • Iframe shows only code - Help, please!

    I'm on OS X 10.4.5 and have designed a website that uses iframes (this is a must as there is a lot of content and I do not want the page bigger than the set size, so I need a way to scroll the content within the page size (955x600). I use Firefox for myself (and it looks great) but the person I'm doing the site for uses Safari. When he sees it, needless to say, it isn't going to look right. All it's displaying is the code for the iframe page as if I'm viewing the source for the page (within the iframe on the main page). Have they fixed the problem with iframes in Safari? And if so, what do I need to make it work in both browsers? Or is there another design tactic I can use instead of iframes?
    Any help or suggestions are very appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Mac mini   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    I actually found my error. It wasn't code within the file but I had saved it as a .php file (based on a file I found at another website that used it for their iframe) and when I changed it to .html it worked! But thanks, again, for your advice because it caused me to research iframes and I found they were all using .html/.htm files to call on.

    Which account you used for SQL Server service?
    It seems a permission issue. The account should have the permission on the location which you placed the mdf file and ldf file in. And have the mdf and ldf file in the right location.

  • After mixing a project i select bounce and burn the disc that is burned plays on any cd player but when i try to burn the wav or mp3 file that was created the resulting disc will only play in a computer this also happens with video projects help please

    after mixing a project i select bounce and burn the disc that is burned plays on any cd player but when i try to burn the wav or mp3 file that was created the resulting disc will only play in a computer this also happens with video projects help please are there any settings i need to alter as it seems the wav or mp3 file i ceated is being converted to a data file somewhere between the folder and disc drive

    Same thing for a movie file.. If you want to play back the movie via a DVD and a DVD player you must create a Movie DVD  and not just burn files to a data DVD... as Data DVDs are just storage devices for files and therefore will only work with computers...
    Movie DVDs are special formats that include things like menus and special file formats.. so they can playback via a DVD Player...
    You will need a 3rd party DVD Burning app like Toast which is what i actually use.... or the more popular DVD Creator app...to create and then burn a Movie DVD that will playback on a DVD Player....

  • Help please...All menus grayed out in CS4...

    Premiere Pro used to work and a few weeks ago when I openned it, all of the menu items were grayed out and no editing panel or anything openned. I can't even quit the program. Literally everything is grayed out.
    There is nothing I can do with it.  I have uninstalled the entire Master Collection using the Adobe Installers and double checked to make sure things were cleaned up by using the Creative Suite Cleaner Tool.I have also attempted to just reinstall Premiere Pro from the disks to no avail.
    All other programs in the suite apprear to load and work fine. Only Premiere Pro CS4 does not work.
    Any ideas on how to fix this issue? I really need to be able to use the program and can't yet afford to upgrade to CS5.5... so any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks guys!

    REALLY appreciate the help and care.

    The second monitor has been an issue with several programs. Photoshop is one too.
    There is another thread, where a user was getting the "bing," that a window was open, but could not see it. Sure enough, it was on his second monitor, that had been disconnected. I should have asked if you had ever had a second monitor. I am the "dunce."

  • Help please! Going mad with CSS in JEditorPane

    Hi gurus,
    For more then two days now i am trying to get css working with html in my jeditorpane.
    This is the stylesheet:
    .toc1
    font-size:12.0pt;
    font-family:Arial;
    font-weight:bold;
    margin-bottom: 0px;
    .toc2
    font-size:11.0pt;
    font-family:"Times New Roman";
    margin-left: 20px;
    margin-top: 0px;
    margin-bottom: 0px;
    .plannerhyperlink
    color:green;
    text-decoration:italic;
    SIMPLE isn't it?
    In my JEditorPane constructor I do this
    StyleSheet styleSheet = new StyleSheet();
    //StyleSheet styleSheet = kit.getStyleSheet();
    FileReader reader = new FileReader("/programs/eclipse/workspace/Planner/src/nl/renepetersconsultancy/planner/gui/HTMLHelp/test.css");
    styleSheet.loadRules(reader, new URL("file:/programs/eclipse/workspace/Planner/src/nl/renepetersconsultancy/planner/gui/HTMLHelp/test.css"));
    kit.setStyleSheet(styleSheet);
    setEditorKit(kit);
    setPage(url);
    I know that the rules are loaded: I printed them to check that. But nothing happens!!!! Almost all layout is gone. If I use the original stylesheet and load my rules on top of them, I can see I have all of them, but everything is layout with the original default style and again my layout is ignored.
    HELP Please, anyone. I am desperate (deadline + demo is tomorrow) :-(

    GL is far easier to do simple CSS than DW, but once you get through the awkward DW interface, it can become clearer. I can only easily see how CSS is created in DW by exporting a GL site that has some already in it. Still not as easy as GL, but we're now stuck with it.
    DW still does not handle full fledged CSS unless you have coding experience.
    DW has always been more for the programmer than designer (just try asking a question on the DW forum :-)
    CS4 seems to be an improvement, but not there yet.

  • 'Error loading plugin: Plugin file not found' message on ONLY 5 sites, but all others OK.  Help, please!

    Hi Again!
    I posted this problem here before, but since I really need to access the sites that receive this error message in less than a month, I had to re-post; hopefully someone who didn't see it before will see it & have a solution for me.
    Here are the details:  I'm running windows 8.1 & I use Firefox 33.1.1, Pale Moon 25.1.0 or Opera 26.0 as my browsers, (I have IE installed & up-to-date, but I never use it).  I followed the 10-point checklist on Adobe & everything was done, except for "uncheck Hardware Acceleration" in Flash 'Settings'; I tried to uncheck it on this site, where it's indicated, as well as in my 4 browsers when I'm doing something that uses Flash, but no matter how hard I try, I can't 'uncheck' the check mark in that tiny box!  Since this error problem only affects 5 web sites, & I can watch streaming media on all other sites, I don't think it's an issue. 
    Here's how this problem began:  I was watching a live, streaming nest-cam on 5/09/14 around 11:00AM, (yes, I DO know the exact time & date, because it happened so suddenly while I was watching this website that I'd been watching since the end of February, 2014), when my screen went black.  I thought it was probably an Adobe Crash, but when the usual Crash Report window didn't show up, I just closed Firefox & reopened it, expecting to resume watching the nest-cam.  When I went back to the site, I got the black screen with the "Error loading plugin: Plugin file not found" message.  The chat portion on the site still works, though. I know there are other sites with this nest-cam feed, so I started trying them, but it took several tries for me to find one that didn't get the error message! I posted this problem on "Windows BBS" forum, & someone else posted that the same thing happened to them AND on the same sites!  They didn't have a solution, either.  I cleared my cache, rebooted my PC & even did a System Restore, but whatever happened in that brief second made using ONLY 5 sites impossible.  Here are the sites that receive the error message:
    http://pixcontroller.com/eagles, (but I CAN go to http://pixcontroller.com, but there isn't any streaming media)
    http://cbslocal.com/eagles
    http://westmorelandconservancy.org/BlueBirdwebcam-1.htm
    http://wildearth.tv/cam/pittsburgh-bald-eagles, (I get the error message on ALL cams on this site)
    http://aviary.org/BE-NestCam1 (I get the error message on ALL cams on this site)
    Now if any videos from the 5 websites above are uploaded to YouTube, I can watch them perfectly...no error message if I watch the videos elsewhere.  Luckily, I found Ustream, & they have most of the nest cams I watch, but I need to fix this issue, because it's nearing nesting time!  I'm an amateur nest-watcher & it's vital that I have access to these 5 sites, so if anyone knows how to fix this, PLEASE tell me!
    Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
    All suggestions/solutions are gratefully accepted.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

I can see the TC in my finder, but when I click on a file or video to drag and drop, I get message that TC can't be modified. Help please!

    I agree with Kappy.. passing files and especially via wireless is slow as slow.
    Just need to be sure your TC is the new AC model??
    And the OS on the computer is Lion?
    Have you completed the setup of the TC via the utility? You do still need to get internet via the TC so it has to be plugged into the main router..
    Give us the full picture of the network.
    Then we can help you get into it.. whether you should put your files on it is another question.

  • My Iphone 5, was backed up and restored.  Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option.  Can anyone help please?

    My IPhone 5, was backed up and restored.  Music doesn't sync, when reconnecting device each time, it only offers restore or new phone rather than sync option.  I have reinstalled ITunes but still this hasn't worked.  Can anyone help please?

    This problem started last year when ios 8 was released. I think apple is trying to force users to buy music on iTunes store and that's why it's impossible to sync other music and also that's the reason why they haven't solved this serious problem. That's really disappoints me and i'm angry with apple because i have like 10 gb of music in mp3 and i can't sync music from iTunes to my iPhone.

    Itunes doesn't list all of my recent podcasts. My show is Black Tribbles and it only shows episodes through March 2013, however we do at least two shows a week and they aren't listed. The feed works because the show update to my computer. Help please.

    Your feed is at http://blacktribbles.podomatic.com/rss2.xml
    When subscribed to in iTunes the recent episodes show, but the Store hasn't updated for some time.
    There appears to be an issue with the feed. In the episode 'WRESTLING MARCH MADNESS: Final Bracket & Championship' of 31st March you will find in the 'description' tag the following line:
    4. KURT ANGLE
    At the end of this line is an invisible character which seems to be wrecking the feed - although it works OK when suscribing in iTunes it won't load in a browser (and I also found the feed very slow to load, which won't help matters with the Store)
    This sort of thing usually happens when you paste text in from a word processing application and manage to include one of the invisible control characters. I don't know how easy it will be do do it in Podomatic but you should delete that entire line and retype it to remove this charter.
    You should keep an eye on the time it takes the feed to be accessed - if there is a long enough delay (and it was quite some seconds when I tried) the Store may well timeout and fail to read it. At the moment it's showing a cached version from the last time it was able to read it.
