Dreamweaver CC and jQuery Support

I'm only recently getting into jQuery, specifically for creating mobile apps.  I know that Dreamweaver CC has good support for jQuery, jQuery UI, and jQuery Mobile.  BUT, I also notice that the code it creates is a hybrid between pure jQuery code, and Dreamweaver proprietary javascript code, such as all the MM_xxx javascript functions.  I also notice that the events for jQuery components are mostly placed within the HTML tag, such as the onClick attribute of an A tag, etc...
Is there anyway, automagically, to get the jQuery code to build within a script section within the code, with the appropriate event handler as code instead of embedding into the HTML tags themselves?  And is there anyway to eliminate the MM_xxx proprietary javascript functions, and use pure jQuery code instead?

Hi
I don't think it is do-able on code that is automatically generated. but I am not a jQuery user in Dw, (JavaScript yes, jQuery no).
Anything that begins with MM_xxx.... normally indicates that it was written specifically for Dw.
It may be worth waiting for a few members who normally look-in latter in the day though, as they may know more about using jQuery with Dw.

  • Dreamweaver CS6 and Jquery Mobile 1.4.1

    I updated all the Jquery files in Dreamweaver CS6 and now in Live View the Jquery styling doesn't show, works fine when I open the page with Chrome. Any help ?

    Tried with Jquery Mobile 1.4.0 and it works, so I guess I'll use that for the time being.

  • Dreamweaver cs5 and Jquery

    Hi. I was looking for "Flash Elements" on Dreamweaver cs5, so that I can use the Image Viewer to put pictures on my wesbite.
    There was no "Flash Elements" option in the Insert tab. I did some research and apparently I needed a jquery code. I found a free code on a website and I downloaded it and it is saved on my computer.
    I don't know what I am supposed to do with this code, or how I am supposed to implement it into dreamweaver so that the Flash Elements option appears in my Insert tab.After the file downloaded, I got a notification message on dreamweaver that said something like  "jquery.tn3lite.min is a view only file. what would you like to do with it?" The options were View, Make writeable, and Close. I clicked View and I am not sure how to proceed from there. The document that opened in code view contains a ton of content in it.
    Please tell me the steps I need to take from here to get the Flash Elements - Image viewer in the Insert tab.
    Thanks in advance.

    Seems to be some confusion here.
    Please tell me the steps I need to take from here to get the Flash Elements - Image viewer in the Insert tab.
    There are none.
    Adobe dropped the Flash Image Viewer from Dreamweaver starting in CS4. It won't be back. There are much better ways of achieving slideshows these days.

    jQuery has nothing to do with Flash Elements - Image Viewer.
    jQuery is one good way to get a slideshow working on your webpage but understand what it is before you try to use it.

  • Dreamweaver CC 2014 and JQuery Accordian...

    After upgrading to Dreamweaver CC 2014 from DW CC, I am seeing SpryAssets in my code when I insert a JQuery Accordian. Should that NOT be there, or at least have a different name? When I preview in Browser from DW CC 2014, it displays as desired. When I load page from browser over the web, the accordion effect is not there. What am I missing?
    Thanks,
    Rick

    Hi Rick,
    When you say that you have upgraded, I hope you mean that you installed a fresh version of of Dreamweaver CC2014 and left Dreamweaver CC in tact.
    At the moment, I have three versions of Dreamweaver installed on my system, namely DWCS6, DWCC and DWCC14, all working independently of each other.
    As such, DWCC14 will place all jQuery widget support files in a subdirectory called jQueryAssets.
    In contrast, DWCC will place those same support files into a directory called SpryAssets, probably because of the Spry aftermath. If you do not like the name of this subdirectory, you can always rename it.

  • Dreamweaver CS6-  jquery and jquery cycle to have 5 images slide (as a fade) in a banner code failure- help?

    Dreamweaver CS6- I am trying to use jquery and jquery cycle to have 5 images slide (as a fade) in a banner. I thought I got the code right but it stacked the images. I suspect I have the incorrect code for the position or I haven't properly added cycle.
    my head code:
    <title>slider</title>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="JS/jquery-1.11.2.min.js"></script>

    1. You can use a constructor to change the defaults. The default values can be seen in jquery.cycle2.js starting at line 659 as per the following. As you can see at the bottom, the code automatically runs the slideshow(s)
    // @see: http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle2/api
    $.fn.cycle.defaults = {
        allowWrap:        true,
        autoSelector:     '.cycle-slideshow[data-cycle-auto-init!=false]',
        delay:            0,
        easing:           null,
        fx:              'fade',
        hideNonActive:    true,
        loop:             0,
        manualFx:         undefined,
        manualSpeed:      undefined,
        manualTrump:      true,
        maxZ:             100,
        pauseOnHover:     false,
        reverse:          false,
        slideActiveClass: 'cycle-slide-active',
        slideClass:       'cycle-slide',
        slideCss:         { position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0 },
        slides:          '> img',
        speed:            500,
        startingSlide:    0,
        sync:             true,
        timeout:          4000,
        updateView:       0
    // automatically find and run slideshows
    $(document).ready(function() {
        $( $.fn.cycle.defaults.autoSelector ).cycle();
    2. To center the slideshow, merely center the container as in
    div.cycle-slideshow {
        width: 1000px;
        margin: auto;

  • Dreamweaver CS4 and CS5 on Same Computer

    I am thinking of upgrading to CS5.5 from CS 4. I would like to know if it is ok to have and use both versions on the same computer. I have projects ongoing in my current version and don't want to have to reconfigure them to operate correctly in the new version. I plan to start new projects in the new version in the future.
    What do you think?

    I would tend to agree with Hans. Chances are that unless you need to support a website with methods that are no longer part of the new version of Dreamweaver, you won't need to have both versions.
    I have something like 50 websites that are built in Dreamweaver CS3 and upgraded about a month ago to CS 5.5. Both versions of Dreamweaver coexist quite well on my Mac Pro under Snow Leopard and I am able to run both versions of Dreamweaver simultaneously, each with a different website open at the same time.
    Both versions also successfully upload information to my server and, in fact, I can have both transmitting data to the same VPS server at the same time.
    I have one website that is using a Flash-based slideshow created in Dreamweaver CS3 that I have not updated to the more modern jQuery. Once I update that, I will be able to switch completely to CS 5.5 for all of my websites. There is absolutely no difference in the HTML or CSS code generated by the two applications, as the standards for HTML and CSS are precisely the same.
    And Dreamweaver CS 5.5 can be made to look and act like Dreamweaver CS3 (or very close to it) by simply changing how one's code view and design view are laid out (I prefer code to be on top and design to be beneath, rather than the default side-by-side view indroduced with CS5).
    I also needed to check off the checkbox in Preferences>New Document "Include Unicode Signature (BOM)" because that is not required for standard English and Roman-alphabet based websites and will flag an error in the W3C Validator.
    That's pretty much it. I do like the "Live Code" view, though I always check things in a web browser and check things again in several web browsers once uploaded to the server.

  • Dreamweaver CS4 and Web Widgets

    Hey All,
    I wanted to let you know that the new version of Dreamweaver
    is now available.
    We rounded out the form validation widget support in this
    version and we now support HTML data sets. We have also added some
    stater pages for Spry pages: Master/Detail pages and other common
    page layouts.
    Some of you here were asking about widgets from other
    frameworks that you saw mentioned in the public beta.
    We are also announcing web widgets for Dreamweaver. These are
    widgets that other developers have packaged for use in Dreamweaver.
    You can see the first batch now at
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?s=5&from=1&o=desc&cat=290&l=-1&event=produ ctHome&exc=3
    Phatfusion and mootools is first to go up, with YUI and
    jQuery widgets to follow very soon.
    How did they make these widget extensions?
    They used the just released web widget Packager:
    http://labs.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Dreamweaver_Widget_Packager
    This takes a XML file that the developer makes that describes
    the widget. They feed that into the Packager and it automatically
    creates the extension. It's pretty slick.
    Check them out!
    Thanks,

    just checked out today, Dreamweaver CS4 still use Spry
    1.6.1....
    so where we can find updated "form validation widget" and
    "HTML data sets"? is it available in Spry 1.6.1 zip package? or it
    only available on DW CS4?
    I think you misunderstand the message. Those
    widgets are newly add to the Dreamweaver panels (dataset wizzard
    now allowes you to choose HTML data sets and XML data sets) and the
    validation widgets can be found in the insert panel.
    The widgets are not new, they just have been add to
    Dreamweaver.

  • How can I import a non-BC site into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free sites?

    I am trying to import one of my non-BC sites into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free WebBasics sites.
    When I try to create a new BC site in Dreamweaver CC, it creates a BC template site, and I have unsuccessfully tried to update the files on BC - it won't let me connect.
    If I import the site from my portal, I don't get the option of a free site - when I try to upgrade, I get the credit card form asking for payment.
    I feel like I'm running around in circles with one foot nailed to the floor.
    Any tips?

    Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion.  I'm exporting the first section now.  I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie.  I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame?  If it can, what size should I select when I export? 

  • Need details on how to move existing website to Dreamweaver CS6 and to Business Catalyst web hosting

    Hi All,
         I need assistance with transferring an existing website  - imagessays.com  -  (designed with Dreamweaver CS4) to my Creative Cloud CS6 account - and to web hosting by CS6 Business Catalyst.
       …  step-by-step instructions would be most useful.  I've got the Dreamweaver CS6 onDemand book, etc.,  ...  I guess I’m just not enough of a geek to work my way through the steps and to get my site back moving ahead online.
        Beyond that, need advice as to how to repair a couple of non-funcitonal links on the site (check out imagessays.com to see a couple of pics that don't work).  I'm looking forward to uploading more content and to do major upgrade to the site, but am unable to do so ... need technical support re how to do these simple (should be) things.
        Since setting up the website over 5 years ago, I have migrated from Dreamweaver CS3 to CS4 .... and now to CS6 ...  and from a Dell XPS 450 running Windows XP to a Mac Pro desktop running Mac OS X.
    These changes of version / machine / OS  have separated me from the ability to do the one simple thing that I need to do with this straightforward website, that is:  upload new pitchers and writins .
    I look forward to assistance and support for this.
    Thanks,

  • Dreamweaver CC and Windows 8.1 - Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension

    Was running the latest version with no issues and then I loaded Office 2013 .. Now when I am in the remote site and try to double click on a .cfm file, I get a dialog box..Can't Find A Valid Editor For This File Extension..
    I tried the support chat and they said Dreamweaver support was not available, try again later???
    So I thought I would reinstall the CC version and now I can see the Dreamweaver icon next to the files but still ... can't open the file..
    Any assistance would be appreciated?
    Leo

    The issue is only in Windows 8.x where when Dreamweaver CC is installed, it is not able to turn on the file type associations by default.  The workaround for now is to manually add the extensions both within Windows and then within Dreamweaver CC itself.
    Go to Control Panel > Programs > Default Programs > Set Your Default Programs and select Dreamweaver CC and then select 'Choose defaults for this program' and Select All or the extensions you want to open in Dreamweaver CC
    Start Dreamweaver CC and go to Edit > Preferences > File Types/Editors and add '.cfm .cfc' to the extensions and then add C:\Program Files (x86)\Dreamweaver CC\Dreamweaver.exe then click on Apply and Close
    That should be it.

  • After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file.

    After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file. HELP!!!

    Howdy,
    Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
    I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
    You might wish to read:
    http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
    If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
    Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
    Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
    With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
    If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
    - You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
    - Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
    - Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
    - Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
    Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399

  • Spry Accordion and jQuery UI Accordion for Widget Browser

    I have Dreamweaver CS5 and used the spry accordion for a left menu. I then used the widget browser and added jQuery UI accordion. But there appears to be a conflict in that the spry accordion is not displaying the white font on hover, instead using the gray font from the jQuery UI accordion.
    This may be a duplicate post, I asked this question on another section of this site, if so, I do apologize. Any help is greatly appreciated.
    The page sample is

    In SpryAccordion.css you are telling the Spry Accordion to do exactly that.

  • Dreamweaver 8 FrontPage Extension Support?

    Hi All,
    I have posted this question in the Exchange Forum but I have
    not received a response so I am expanding the question to the
    General Forum in the hope that one/some of you have seen this
    problem.
    I have a client that requires me to work with a FrontPage
    enabled server and to use FrontPage extensions. As some of you may
    know there is an Extension, published by Adobe, that enables DW and
    DWMX 2004 to work with FrontPage Extensions. These extensions
    create an additional drop down menu item option in the 'Remote
    Info' Category of the Site Definition Wizard.
    However, the latest extension (for DW MX 2004) does not work
    in DW8; the extra FrontPage extension option fails to appear in the
    Site Definition wizard's Remote Info Access category.
    Does anyone know how to enable DW8 to work with FrontPage
    extensions and FrontPage enabled servers? Should the MX 2004
    extension work in DW8? Should I be using a different exchange
    download or can the MX 2004 extension be modified locally to allow
    access to the FrontPage Extensions?
    Any help, as always, is much appreciated.
    Thanks.
    Nick Barling
    www.barkingweb.com

    Before doing anything else, take a couple of weeks to
    gothrough the DW
    tutorials, and also to study HTML and CSS. The more you know
    about those,
    the easier your transition will be. DW expects alot more from
    you than FP
    did, and as a result, you may find it much more frustrating
    to have the raw
    reality of web development staring you in the face rather
    than the wizards
    of FP.
    > Is there a way to convert a Frontpage site into a
    > Dreamweaver site
    1. I'd define a Dreamweaver site that points to a location on
    your hard
    drive for the local site's root, and to the current FP site
    on the web as
    the remote site
    2. I'd use Dreamweaver (if your host supports FTP
    connections) to download
    the remote site to the root of the site you just defined on
    the hard drive.
    This will pick up all the pages *after* webbot action so that
    shared borders
    and all are already present in the page HTML. This will also
    pick up all of
    the server scripting. Note - in the event that you are not
    able to connect
    using FTP since some FP hosts block that protocol, you will
    have to use a
    third party 'site copier' like Black Widow, QuadSucker, or
    WebCopier, (or
    even the DW extension called SiteAssist from WebAssist) to
    connect and
    download using http protocols. Doing it this way will *not*
    retrieve any of
    your server-script code, if any (unless you have used the
    WebAssist
    extension).
    3. I'd create a DW template for the pages, that captures the
    "shared
    border"
    effect you had in FP.
    4. I'd copy and paste content from each FP pages to a new
    template child
    page and then save the new child page with an easily
    identifiable
    nomenclature that is distinct from what was used on the FP
    site (since you
    are saving the new child pages into the same local site as
    the FP pages).
    5. When the basic site is completed, I'd upload the new DW
    pages to some
    staging area/webspace, and by using the browser, I'd verify
    that the site
    (as it now exists remotely) is complete.
    6. Then I'd create a *new* DW site in a new location on the
    hard drive, and
    connect to and download all the files from the staging site.
    7. You can now delete the original FP site from your local
    system if you
    want.
    You now have a complete site (minus any of the FP extension
    server-side
    code) that has no FP footprint.
    If you have used any FP server extension functions on the
    original FP site
    (form processing, guestbooks, tables of contents, etc.), you
    will have to
    recreate those functions in DW using 3rd party scripts, or
    scripts that you
    write yourself.
    If this site will continue to be 'touched' by FP, don't even
    think of using
    DW on it.
