Doesn't Display Properly In Dreamweaver

Hi,
I just opened a website in Dreamweaver CS3 that was
originally created in Expression Web.
If I preview a page in a browser it looks fine, but in the
Dreamweaver design editing window it looks a mess. The bar across
the top is fine, but the left navigation column stretches all the
way across the page. Below that is a table that appears in the
middle of the screen in a browser and below that is the right hand
column. Also there is quite a bit of text that doesn't appear at
all in the Dreamweaver window although it displays fine in my
browser.
Please can someone tell me how to correct this so that I can
better see what I'm doing within Dreamweaver?
Thanks,
Joe

Hi Alan,
Thanks for the advice. There's only one link to a .css file
and that's working fine.
The problem's a bit hard to explain, so I made a very short
video with Camtasia which you can see here:
http://site.soundeffectstore.com/dreamweaver/Dreamweaver.html
The site isn't live at the moment and the links don't work or
anything, but I uploaded the code to here:

Thanks again for your help.
Talk soon,
Joe

Setting img width to 100vw doesn't display properly in Dreamweaver CC

If I make a blank page and drop an image in it, remove height and width from the HTML, set the body tag margins to zero, and use CSS to set the width of the image to 100vw, it doesn't fit the image to the borders of the viewing area, but instead makes it a ridiculous, seemingly arbitrarily gigantic size. Testing in a browser or live view, it looks fine. I need Dreamweaver's design viewing area to respect the vw setting or ignore it altogether.
Edit: This seems to be true of everything: div tags, tables, whatever. Dreamweaver's design viewing area has some really crazy idea of how large it should be displaying these things when viewport width is used in CSS.

Thank you again for your response, but you really don't understand that I'm not asking to be told not to use a perfectly valid tag. Your suggestion that it's "too buggy for the wild" comes from no personal experience, seeing as how you didn't actually know what the property was when you replied the first time. Only two simple bugs are mentioned in this article, and the article itself is two years old. While I respect your point of view, it is simply not helpful in this matter.
The problems I'm experiencing are not inherent to CSS3; in my original post, I explain that it works fine in a browser and in the live-view. The problem is that Dreamweaver CC offers a drop-down list of various image sizes, and this list includes viewport width and height attributes, yet Dreamweaver itself displays these attributes incorrectly.

E61i internet browser doesn't display properly

Hello,
I never had any problems browsing the internet on my E61i. My Nokia is always switched on, but today I had to switch it off for a while. After switching in on again, I wanted to use the internet on it. The strange thing was that it wouldn't display any web page properly any more. Pages look messy, like the web browser doesn't how to handle HTML etc. and display it properly.
I often visit web pages not specially made for PDA's, so when visiting these I had to scroll horizontally. That was ok. But now when visiting these pages I cannot scroll horizontally any more; the browser puts all web page contents beneath each other, if you know what I mean. Now I can only scroll vertically.
The conclusion is that many web pages I used to visit have now become useless since the E61i web browser doesn't display them any more as they used to be displayed, the pages used to look like as if you visited them from a PC, but not any more.
Does anybody have a clue?

It sounds like a cache issue. When you view the page, that
page is loaded into your (or your client's) browser's cache memory.
This is done so that when you return to that page it will load
faster (since it is already loaded into memory).
This will only happen if a person has been to the page
recently. There is a limit on the amount of information your
browser will store in cache memory. The more you surf, the more
likely it is that the page will be replaced in the cache memory
with some other information.
You (and your client) can, depending on what browser you are
using, set your preferences so that all web pages will be
completely reloaded every time you visit them. In IE 6 for Win:
Tools>Internet Options>Settings> Select 'Every visit to
the page'. You can also set your cache to be the minimum amount of
space alotted. Note: This doesn't really work very well in IE 6 for
WIN. I use firefox for reviewing changes because I have found IE 6
is completely unreliable for viewing the latest.
Most other browsers will allow you to hold down Shift and hit
'refresh' to throw out the cache for that page and view the latest.
As far as I know this is standard operating procedure for proofing
new pages.
If there is a coding technique to force a browser to use only
the latest information, I don't know what it is.
Good luck.

Externally loaded swf in second window doesn't display properly?

I have a bitmap based flash game (bitmapdata generated screen) that I'm trying to load in to a secondary nativewindow generated from a main flash (not AJAX/HTML) based AIR app that's a graphical menu. I.E. you click on a selection in the menu, and it pops open a secondary nativewindow with the flash game running in it. The problem is, the game itself gets mangled in the secondary window when it loads in. Keyboard input goes away, the bitmap doesn't draw properly (it streaks like its not drawing the background image each frame), most of the game objects its supposed to draw in to the bitmap are missing, etc.
When I make the game itself in to its own AIR app and run it direct, it works just fine. So I'm puzzled. Is there some kind of special coding considerations in the as3 side that I'm missing with the original game? I.E. if a flash based AIR app launches another nativewindow and loads a swf in to that, does it share some kind of variable set, display list, etc. with the calling window? Something else? Any help would be appreciated.

There are a few differences between (A.) letting the AIR runtime load content into the initial window and (B.) loading content into a new NativeWindow.
1. In case A, the stage property is available in the class constructor for the main sprite. In case B, this is not the case. You may have to use an ADDED_TO_STAGE event handler to do some class initialization.
2. In case A, the initial scale is based on the metadata present in the SWF -- this results in the behavior you would expect. In case B, there is no SWF to base the scale on when the window is created, so a default scale is used -- this is rarely results in behavior you would expect (unless the window happens to be created with a size of 72x72 pixels).
If you aren't setting the stage to noScale, then this could account for some of the visual issues. (See http://www.adobe.com/devnet/air/flex/quickstart/launching_windows.html for an explanation of the scaling issues.) The easiest thing to do is to set the Stage scaleMode to noScale and the align property to the top left setting. I'm guessing your drawing code isn't expecting the scaling so things are getting put in the wrong place.
3. In case A, the content is automatically put in the application sandbox. In case B, it depends on the URL.
As for the Keyboard input, this may depend on how you are loading the SWF and from where. This could be related to #3 above, although I would expect to see security errors. How are you adding your keyboard event handlers?

Navigator Window Doesn't display properly

Hello,
Suddenly the Navigator Window on the Left of JDeveloper doesn't show properly.Usually the window has 2 subwindows : the top which displays WorkSPace-Projects-classes and bottom which shows the members and methods for each class. Now my top window doesn't show at all. It is like it has been minimized and i cannot restore it. The bottom window occupies all the space.
When i place the cursor on top of the upper border of the bottom window (just under the green X icon) the cursor changes to a shape that shows that there is another window there but i cannot drag the border down and display again the top navigator window.
What can i do about that ? ?

I have seen this problem before but I have not been able to reproduce it.
The workaround is to:
- Open the 'Welcome' workspace (Help|Welcome Workspace)
- Close JDeveloper
- Launch JDeveloper
- Open your workspace
Hope this helps.
Please let us know if you are still running into problems.
Regards,
Arun

SimpleChat doesn't display properly for spark on mobile

I'm using the latest LCCS Spark Beta version. The SimpleChat displays RAW html instead of the styled text, plus it doesn't scroll properly. This problem was posted a few months back but is yet to be resolved. Looking at the LCCS sdk source code, the problem seems obvious: SimpleChat uses the class RichTextArea which the lccs team has created. That class checks to see if "textFlow" exists. If it doesn't as in the case of mobile it just assigns the raw html to the text field which is obviously unacceptable since the user will end up seeing raw html instead of styled text. Below is the problematic code in the lccs RichTextArea class. Is LCCS team supporting mobile devices?
               if (textFlow)
                    textFlow = TextConverter.importToFlow(str, TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT);
                else {
                    //StyleableTextField(textDisplay).htmlText = str;
                    textDisplay.text = str;

CSS - main content h1 and p text doesn't display properly

Hi all,
I know this is something really simple, but I just can't seem to get it right. The h1 and the p text in the main content should have left and right padding to display properly (i.e. space on either side so it's not squished against the Accordion Spry), but it doesn't work. It shows correctly in DW, but not online. I'm just learning CSS so sorry for the ignorance! I've tried everything I know and can't seem to get it right. I would appreciate ANY help at all.
http://www.TailgatorsHockey.com/news.html
Attached is the .css file...
Thanks so much!

The padding and margin are certainly showing in the browser for the h1 tag but you have no padding or margin declared in your css styles for the paragraph tag in the 'main-content' <div>
Add ths to your css styles:
#main-content p {
padding: 0 25px 0 25px; /*top/right/bottom/left*/
margin-left: 10px;

Movie video artwork doesn't display properly on iPad video app

I have seen the discussion around the problems / solutions regarding the proper displaying of TV shows on the iPad when accessing a shared library, but my problem is with Movie files. The artwork does not display properly. Sometimes the artwork from one movie will be duplicated onto another movie, or they will be all switched around. I have both iTunes purchased movies and converted backups of from my DVD library.
Has anyone else had this problem?
I have tried many things. While I see changes in the displayed artwork, they are generally messed up in one way or another on the iPad when accessing the shared library on my computer.

Curiously enough, if I click on a movie from the shared library on the iPad, the correct artwork shows on the right sight of the window that let's you play the movie or navigate to a chapter. When I go back to the menu screen for all the movies in the shared library, the artwork is still wrong.
Artwork is messed up even for home-created movies - one of them shows a preview screenshot of the Warner Brothers logo instead of the picture I have in the Artwork setting in iTunes.

Page doesn't display properly in IE 6

Hi ppl.. My site doesn't display correctly in IE 6. (It works fine with IE 7 and 8 and Firefox) I can see through the area which is supposed to be white ( in other words, I see the background which I put in my body tag). I'm guessing that this happens because the overflow portion of my main content area is set to hidden. Is there anything I can change to rectify this? Below is my url. Sorry if my post sounds confusing. If you need any details, pls ask me.. Thank you!

Differences in rendering abound between IE6 and all other browsers. But this is what I found when I ran your page through w3c validation: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://www.readislam.net/darulhuda/aqeedah1.shtml&charse t=(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0
I often see white turning up as transparent, though mostly in transparent gifs. My ploy in that case is to use a slightly off-white, usually #FFFFFE or some such. I don't know if that will ease your pain, though.

IGoogle doesn't display properly

Hello all,
Yesterday, all was fine. Today, my iGoogle page won't display properly (running Safari - OSX 10.3.9 Panther). Get a notice that: 'Home tab has been sent. Sending failed.' Brother Mac running Panther has same problem. Page displays properly running Firefox, and also running Safari - OSX 10.4.11 Tiger.
Has anyone else this problem? Is this just another sign that Panther is getting old? (Google Mapping quit working about a month ago.)
Sniff..... The obits are already working overtime this month ..... Jon

Hello Surfcat and all,
Thanx for all the updates. Whenever the Mac goes on the fritz, the first thing I try to do is find out if it's happening to everybody or just to me. It would seem that I'm not alone, so I guess I feel better.
It's nice to know your iGoogle started working again, even if it subsequently quit. Mine has remained "hors de combat", without so much as a brief reprieve.
FWIW, one of my 'extra' Macs (they get lonesome, you know) - running Safari 3.1.1 in OSX 10.4.11 - displays properly (mostly), with just one or two small anomalies.
iGoogle and Firefox continue to work properly on both.
It's easy to get frustrated and angry, and ask, "Don't they care?". I would guess they do care, but gremlins have a habit of being easier to discover than to oust, and I'm just hoping somebody will gain some insight into what the problem is and let the rest of us know about it.
This has not been my week: first, iGoogle; then the spam filter on my eMail (Eudora)(does anybody else still use that?) quits working and I am getting litterally hundreds of ads for Viagra; and then the battery on my FIOS decides to expire and starts beeping - finally find the service number for that, get somebody on the phone, find out the battery can only be ordered by phone, only from the one company, only with a credit card, finally get two batteries in one box for twice the quoted price, spend hours on the phone trying to get that straightened out, get a sweet voice (Columbian) from somewhere in Georgia who tells me everything is all right, the credit will be issued immediately as well as the address label to return the extra battery.... needless to say, nothing has happened.
I swear I'm going back to writing letters, and remembering when A T & T telephone service was quick, courteous, efficient, and the envy of the civilised world.
Bah! Humbug! ..... Jon

Muse site doesn't display properly

Here's the deal. I created a site in muse, then exported to html. Muse created index.html inside of the folder where the muse doc is located. That's exactly what I expect. Now, when I ftp to my webserver, all I get is plain text. I don't think the server is the culprit, because it hosts other muse sites properly. if I navigate to the UNC path and launch index.html, it displays properly. it's only when I hit the url from a browser. What could I possibly be doing wrong here?

Hello Matt,
On running the pages locally from the location where they were exported to, if they look fine and load up as they are supposed to, then it confirms that Muse exported the pages fine. This then leaves only two possibilities where things might have gone wrong, as mentioned below:
1. Either the upload didn't go fine. In this case, try re-uploading using both the "File -> Upload to FTP host" and "File -> Export As HTML" and then using an FTP client to upload to the host.
2. Or the host isn't rendering the site as it should. In this case, have the host "Reset your FTP permissions" and then reupload the site to see if that resolves the issue.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Parikshit
