Display issue in Design view

:confused; I'm working in Dreamweaver 8 (Windows XP). I'm
using the 2col_leftNav.css (tweaked somewhat) for my pages. I'm
having some problems with the display in Design view.
For quite some time, whenever I entered new text into a page,
everything in the div (content > feature) shifted to the right.
If I italicized or bolded the text, everything would shift back
into position. If I changed it back into normal font, it stayed in
place until I added more content. Quite annoying, but I managed.
Something that just started (taking over the previous issue,
with no apparent reason/causal factor): the content > feature
div has shifted to the left, overlapping the left column
navigation. I haven't found anything that will make things shift
back into place. This is very hard to read, and makes working in
design view almost impossible.
Any idea what is going on here and what I can do about
it?

You forgot to post the url so we really can't say.
This is something that presents itself ONLY in Dreamweaver.
When I look at the file in a browser, it looks fine. When I post
the page to the internet, it's fine. The issue is just in editing
the page in Dreamweaver.
However, if you'd like to see some pages where this issue
presented itself during construction, you can see them at

  • MX won't display CSS in Design View

    I built a site for a client using CSS for the layout. The
    client wants to do her own updates with Dreamweaver MX. We've found
    that the layout does not show in Design View, so she's doing minor
    updates in code view (which she's comfortable with).
    A secod site she manages was done with tables and displays
    properly in Design View.
    Can I assume that the problem is just that MX does not
    display CSS layout? She needs an answer so she can ask her boss to
    spend the money for an upgrade.

    Yes .. I agree. :)
    However .. I would still recommend Contribute for a
    non-webpro.

  • Snippets not displayed in Topic (Design View)

    I have RoboHelp 7.0.2.
    This "snippets" problem started a few days ago. I use the
    same 2 snippets in about 100 topics. Suddenly, the snippets stopped
    getting displayed in the topics (Design View). I don't see the
    snippets even when I click the eye glasses icon for a preview.
    However, if I switch to HTML View, the code does confirm that
    the snippets are there.
    This problem started happening around a few days after I
    started having version control issues with RH. My project is
    version controlled (Sourcesafe) so I have always checked in/out
    topics for working. But nowadays, after a few hours of RH being
    open, it just messes the version control part. That is, it will not
    let me edit topics that I have checked out myself telling me that
    the file is already checked out. And at times, it won't even check
    in my files.
    I thought maybe my RH install is corrupt so I just
    reinstalled RH (7.0.2). However, I still cannot see the snippets.
    Not sure about the version control part since I haven't kept RH
    open for a long time.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    K

    The issue that I am having is that when I renamed the
    snippet, only two topics accepted kept the snippet and allowed it
    to remain (with the new name). The other 100 topics showed that I
    had a snippet (even though you couldn't see it), but in the
    tooltip, showed the previous name I named the snippet. I went back
    to the snippet and renamed it back to the old name - which oddly
    this time, the two topics that were accepting the snippet as any
    name, did not take and the snippet was there, but would not appear.
    I guess this is a little glitch in the renaming snippet
    function. I can't think of anything else??? Anyway, I kept the
    original name (although, another odd thing is this isn't the
    original - this is another one I changed it to) and removed the
    snippet that wasn't appearing from the two topics and reinserted it
    again. I guess it's better than reinserting it 100 times.
    Sorry I can't be of more help.
    Thanks,
    Michele

  • CSS Styles not displayed properly in design view - SOLVED (not 'Display Styles')

    For several weeks, I've been troubleshooting the issue of CSS
    and inline styles not being displayed properly when in Dreamweaver
    CS3 design view, and checking in to the forums occassionally to see
    if there was a solution other than making sure "Display Styles" was
    selected under View -> Style Rendering (it was, and still
    nothing would display properly!).
    After much frustration, I may have found the solution to
    those still experiencing the issue even after "Display Styles" is
    appropriately checked. I went in to my master template for the
    site, and found an erroneous <br> tag after the <link
    href> for the stylesheet, which I must have inadvertantly
    inserted when I added the code for the site's favicon. (You get so
    used to Shift-Enter in layout mode, it's almost automatic,
    regardless of what pane your in.) I can't believe I missed this
    before! Deleting the erroneous tag cleaned up the whole
    site.

    I had the same thing happen to me. After hours of trouble
    shooting I found a bit of inappropriate code left in the HTML.
    Cleaned that up and all is good. Seems like it is often something
    so simple. Guess that is why it is so maddening when i can't figure
    it out!

  • Odd CSS issue in Design View

    In either Design View or Split View (in the Design view
    section), I cannot mouse select or highlight text in the main
    content portion of the page. The cursor remains as the default
    arrow and does not switch to the text cursor. As far as I can tell,
    this is a CSS based issue (since if the CSS file is not used, the
    text can be selected). This occurs in CS2 and CS3. The CSS and
    XHTML validate, so I'm really confused.
    The troubled area is the central content starting with the H2
    heading &quot;About Us.&quot; I know Dreamweaver can be a
    little on on displaying CSS properly, but this just seemed to be
    too much. Any one else seen anything this flakey? Or, does any one
    else see an error in the CSS that I am missing?
    The big issue with this is that the code
    appears fine and displays in browsers ok, but client's will
    use the Design view in Dreamweaver to update content. If they
    cannot select the text then it is possible they will think the
    HTML/CSS is broken. Even though designs can be done in multiple
    ways, I like this solution to a 3 column fixed-width design with
    header and a footer that moves down depending on body
    content.

    The first thing is to remove this code from your file:
    <style type="text/css">
    <!--
    @import url("styles/styles.css");
    -->
    </style>
    The above code isn't doing anything special when you have already defined the style sheet using this:
    <link href="styles/styles.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
    Once you have done it, post back again and tell us what other problems do you actually see.
    The page online and your code given here aren't the same.  So check this and rectify it.

  • Display Html screen, design view and CSS screen at the same time ?

    Hello everyone !
    Well this is my problem :
    I am on a Dual Screen monitor, in one screen i have the ''code inspector'' to view my html code and the second screen i have the Design view.
    Problem is,  i hate switching always my tabs when I need to work on my Html and my CSS.
    I was wondering if anyone found a way to display, i don't know maybe 2 code inspector or simply find a way to split the screen so I can see html and css at the same time ?
    Thanks a lot !
    Nick

    If you're using Dreamweaver CS4, this is very easy. View the HTML in the Code Inspector, and have Vertical Split view in the main Document window. In the Related Files toolbar, select the stylesheet.

  • Design View Nonworkable - Fine in Browsers and Validation

    Hi!
    I have year old sites and new sites using CSS and server side
    includes (both php and asp) that are nonworkable in design view in
    Dreamweaver CS3. Sites were fine in Macromedia 8 but not now. My
    very old sites are fine - they are straight HTML sites.
    I have read several past posts on this problem and ruled out
    many of the solutions for my case. My pages are clean in WC3
    validation (meaning no errors) - since this is what Adobe
    Dreamweaver support was concerned about when I took out an support
    incident with them. The sites display fine in 6 browsers, but not
    in DW CS3 now that I upgraded. This makes no sense.
    I see some answers that CS3 is not as tolerant as before of
    bad coding. This is not the issue, it is validated and displaying
    across browsers fine.
    I and my staff are crippled working on these sites now that
    we have all upgraded to CS3 with the way they are displaying.
    Here are some pages that I am having problems with:
    http://www.scandpg.org/meeting_event.php
    http://www.eatrightny.org/about/about_site.php
    http://www.eatrightmissouri.org/jobs/index.asp
    (site workign on now, not live)
    http://www.hada.com/about/board.asp
    I have found if I uncheck server side includes in preferences
    for invisible elements I can work on the content better, but this
    is a workaround but does not resolve the fact that DW is not
    displaying coding in view correctly and still leaves some issues
    when developing a site.
    Thanks for your help in shedding light on this as I may be
    off. My conclusions are drawn from a support incident/ticket with
    Adobe on this very same thing, looking at the DW forum postings
    over the last six months on this and my own recent experiences.
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Healthy regards,
    Teresa

    If you want to work in DW, then you must adopt this approach
    to the use of
    server-side includes:
    > The parent file is the ONLY one that can contain
    <html>, <head>, or <body>
    > tags.
    > The include files cannot contain those tags.
    > The final assembled page must therefore only contain one
    instance of each
    > with its associated closing tag.
    That seems to be your largest problem.

  • DW8:  image won't display in Design View

    Folks:
    DW8 on MacOS 10.4.8 (fully updated) on Intel iMac.
    What would keep an image from displaying in DW Design View?
    What are the causes of the grey box with the superimposed "X"? Is
    there any diagnostic output that might help? Is the grey box and
    "X" substituted by DW8 for an invalid or un-drawable graphic, or is
    this done by the OS?
    The problem:
    I've got a 1912 x 1481 graphic, a geographic map, in AI that
    I'm trying to use as an ordinary web image, but DW won't display it
    in Design View. Instead all I see is a big grey box and "X". For
    test purposes, I'm starting from a new "Basic" HTML web page and
    all I'm doing is inserting this one image. I need to get this
    working so I can draw hotspots on this graphic to make it
    "clickable" .
    Here's what I've tried:
    o Triple-checking that the inserted image reference is
    correct. Yes, the image file is correctly linked. With the image
    selected, the inspector shows a tiny but recognizable miniature of
    the expected image. Further, when the page and the image are
    uploaded to the web server and I look at it via a browser, the
    expected image is _always correctly displayed.
    o Exporting the graphic "for the web" from AI as both a GIF
    and a medium-quality JPG. Neither of these are displayed in Design
    View; both are served up correctly after being uploaded
    o I found a larger JPG on a different site I'm managing. This
    always displays as expected in both DW Design View and when served
    up. I substituted the failing map JPG image. The result: A grey
    box.
    o Checking the map images: The JPG and GIF versions seem to
    be visible in all environments (image readers, browsers, etc.) I've
    checked _except_ DW8 Design View.
    o Checked on another system. I made the failing image
    available to a very helpful ACE, who performed a similar
    experiment. It worked fine for him. I used his exact HTML and
    directory structure -- and it failed for me. Grey box with "X".
    It seems to me that I've checked most of the obvious
    possibilities. Now it is time to check the less obvious ones.
    Suggestions are very welcome!
    Thanks,
    Henry

    Randy:
    Thanks for your response.
    This is a virtual memory system, so -- in theory-- it should
    accommodate anything that will fit on the hard drive, more or less,
    if I'm wiling to wait the hours (days?) it will take to swap on and
    off the disk. That assumes DW8 takes advantage of the capability.
    It may not.
    "Larger"? The JPG image I compared to is 1692 x 2160 pixels,
    but weighs slightly less, 289K bytes. I'm losing track of all my
    test images that fail, but a representative one is 1912 x 1481
    pixels and weighs 332Kb on the disk. "Roughly comparable" might be
    a better description. The point is still reasonable: DW8 does
    handle images of this size on my system.
    One issue that occurred to me recently is that I may have
    caused some grief by monkeying with the "Save for web" settings at
    the Illy export. Perhaps I asked for some configuration that's
    normal for Illy to export --or it would have warned me, I hope--
    but too strange for DW to grok. DW should complain more
    informatively than painting a gray box and "X" when that happens, I
    would think.

  • Design View Issue Dreamweaver CS4 - Taking forever to load design view

    I am having an issue where my site takes literally almost a full day to load in design view. Once it is loaded everything works seemlessly but once I close down Dreamweaver and reopen it, I have to wait another day to get to design view of my site. All files open just fine in code view.
    I have deleted the Dreamweaver CS4 cache folder, completely formatted my drive and reinstalled creative suite. I have also validated my code on W3c and everything checks out fine.
    The majority of my site is based off of a template, but even when I remove all the template references in the html files from Notepad I am still having the same issue. My site renders fine and quickly however on Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari.
    When loading any other site off the web into Dreamweaver I do not run into the problem so there must be something wrong with how my site is set up. Either the Template file is no good or somewhere else I am falling short. Can someone, please, please, please ( I am begging) help me figure out what is going on here.
    My index file is located at - http://www.thebluedot.net/index.html and the template file is located at - http://www.thebluedot.net/Templates/index.dwt
    I have searched high and low and even made a post on this same topic about a month ago but never came up with a resolution to my issue. I had given up on finding a solution to this problem for some time, but I really need to figure out where I am going wrong here!
    Additional Details -
    I am running - Windows Vista Ultimate on a Core 2 Processor with 12 GB of Ram & Solid State Hard Drive. Everything on my system runs super smoothly except loading my site in Dreamweaver CS4 design view.
    I really appreciate any help you can provide.

    I have used CS2 Adobe GoLive to create and manage a website (pro-prosperity.com).  Now, I have CS4 Dreamweaver.  I got a new site set up on Dreamweaver using the site management facility.  I then have the contents of website available locally on Dreamweaver.  I can edit files.  But the main home page, index.html, is not displaying on design view mode for editing, although it displays everything on live view mode.  I have struggled for days and am not getting any difference in attributes of index.html and another .html that is displaying fine on design view and is editable. 
    I am really lost and am begging for any help.  Can you, for example, copy the home page from pro-prosperity.com and display on design view and edit it?  Please tell me what is in this file that is troublesome.  Thanks.
    The first thing you should do is to make sure that this feature is turned on (it's off by default):
      View > Code View Options > Highlight Invalid Html
    It's not perfect, but it will notify you of some problems. In Code View, there are many problems highlighted. Some of them don't make sense, but are triggered because of a problem with a parent tag.
    Be sure to make a backup copy of your file before doing the next step. Close your page. Go to Preferences > Code Rewriting, and turn on "Fix invalidly nested and unclosed tags", "Remove extra closing tags", and "Warn when fixing or removing tags". Click OK, then re-open your page. The messages in the dialog to tell you what was changed. This allowed me to see your page in Design View (I am using CS5).
    Note: I suggested that you reset your preferences to turn off those 3 settings as they can cause problems with some markup.
    In the long term, I suggest that you avoid nesting tables wherever possible.
    Hope this helps,
    Randy

  • Design view not displaying correctly, but web does?

    I'm working on changing up the menu on a website, and while it displays correctly, the design view is way off. I know I should only worry about my results and my code, but I can't help but wonder where the issue is. Any thoughts?

    Try validating the page first at http://validator.w3.org - what do you get?

  • Coldfusion error displaying in Design view... ???

    This just popped up this morning:
    It's an error from a cfc I wrote. Why is this displaying in the Design View, and why is it there, especially when the cfc works correctly? To my knowledge, nothing has changed in flex Builder, but any help in removing this would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Les

    Somehow I managed to remove a section of code from the CFC. Since one of the CFFUNCTIONs was missing, it threw the error, right in design view.
    Once I replaced the missing code, everything was back to normal

  • Preview and Generate view not displaying the same as design view

    RoboHelp HTML Ver 8.0.2.208.
    Hi all,
    I have a topic that will not generate or preview what is displayed in the design view.
    The topic is a table that uses a different image as the background for each cell (from the CSS).
    The background images display fine in design view but will not display when previewed or generated. Everything else is displayed but not the backgrounds.
    Any ideas.
    Thanks

    You have this -
    </head>
    <script>
    <!--
    function msgopen(url, name, w, h)
    w += 32;
    h += 96;
    var win = window.open(url,
      name,
      'width=' + w + ', height=' + h + ', ' +
      'location=no, menubar=no, ' +
      'status=no, toolbar=no, scrollbars=yes, resizable=yes,screenX=2,screenY=2,left=100,top=100,');
    win.resizeTo(w, h);
    win.focus();
    // -->
    </script>
    <style type="text/css">
    #preloader  {
         position: absolute;
         top: 0;
         left: 0;
         right: 0;
         bottom: 0;
         background-color: #fefefe;
         z-index: 99;
        height: 100%;
    #status  {
         width: 200px;
         height: 200px;
         position: absolute;
         left: 50%;
         top: 50%;
         background-image: url(ajax-loader.gif);
         background-repeat: no-repeat;
         background-position: center;
         margin: -100px 0 0 -100px;
    </style>
    <body>
    In other words, you have a script block AND a CSS block between </head> and <body>. That's invalid code. Move it to where it belongs inside the <head> region.  You could have found this in an instant by checking the page here - http://validator.w3.org.

  • Design view not showing true design

    I'm using Dreamweaver CS3, and have an issue with design
    view.
    I was editing the content of a page in design view, applying
    styles from my main.css, when the page I was working on suddenly
    lost all its styles, including heading & paragraph styles, and
    placement of most div tags.
    My header and the div tags inside that are still visible, as
    is the side navigation, although the background image for the side
    navigation is not. It seems to be all my editable regions that have
    decided not to show correctly.
    I've checked other pages and templates based on the main.css,
    and they all appear to have the same problem.
    The good news:
    1. The CSS Styles inspector on each page shows it is attached
    to the main.css, but lists only three styles under that style
    sheet, all of which are named 'td img'.
    2. The main.css itself looks fine. All my styles are still
    there.
    3. When I preview my site in a browser, it looks as it
    should, so presumably it IS still attached to the style sheet, it's
    just not showing properly when I'm working on it.
    Any clues as to what's going on?
    As I'm sure everyone says, this is kind of urgent, so any
    help anyone can offer will be very gratefully received!
    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
    EDIT: I've been playing around with previewing the site in a
    browser again, and have encountered another issue, which may be
    related. I can preview a preliminary page, but all my links take me
    to a 'this page cannot be found' error message. I was pretty sure
    it wasn't doing this when I first encountered the problem with
    design view, but I could be mistaken. Has something happened to the
    internal links on my site, perhaps?

    In the View menu go to Style Rendering. Make sure Display
    Styles is checked.

  • Table borders in Dreamweaver cs4 design view too big, I would like to have a single line for tables

    Hi All,
    I design email templates using only tables but the design view options in cs4 only provide a huge 3px border in order to display the tables. In older versions of macromedia etc the table view is only 1px wide which makes designing a whole lot easier.
    When I add tables within tables it adds more spacing and looks way off and it also looks off in browsers, causing me to have to increase and decrease padding sure this is no way to create table even if they have no borders and the table width is already fixed?
    I have tried turning borders off in visual aids but there is no option to have just a single line to demonstrate a border!!
    I can't work like this, can anybody help me or is this just the way borders are displayed in cs4 for the pc???

    Hi Guys, thanks for getting back to me.
    the problem is purely about design view display and not about coding.
    Below is how CS4 displays borders with two lines which I find difficult to decipher:
    Then below is Macromedia DM 8 and this how I want the borders to look, with single lines to display the tables.
    This may just be the way Abobe have decided to display tables in design view and there may not be any option to change it but if you know any way to change it I would be most greatful.
    Thanks again.
