Dreamweaver cc fluid grip layout / photo slideshow plugin

Hi Everyone
Is there a photo slideshow plugin that you can use in the fluid grip layout with a fluid div? I tried using cycle2. But i cant get it to work. the plugin requires the div tag to be called cycle-slideshow but when I insert a new div it won't allow me to type in cycle-slideshow. When I try code the div I can't seem to get a fluid element. Is there a way around this problem?

all good I was able to fix the problem by amending the script code

Trouble in Dreamweaver with fluid grid layouts

Hi! This is my first time posting here. I have been having intermittent problems in the fluid grid layouts. The sizing handles that are supposed to be there in a fluid element/div sometimes disappear along with the duplication icon and the arrow that moves a div/element up to the previous row. For instance I am working on a lesson in my online class for Dreamweaver that is asking me to style an unordered list for a menu. I want to make it into a horizontal menu where each item is 3 columns wide. Without the handles I cannot size the items in the list nor "bump them up" next to each other. Does this make any sense? Sometimes, they are there and sometimes not. Mostly not there. This is very frustrating! Can someone offer any solutions?

I have the same Issue, I have been trying to get it resolved for a while now, but the live customer support is terrible, I feel like they don't read the initial question and it frustrates me how I am constantly asked questions about my question that is CLEARLY covered in the initial Question. I Have been on hold on the phone for some time now, if I get this resolved I will post an answer. It does disgust me how adobe are slowly parring the technical support over to its users.

Dreamweaver CS6 Fluid Grid Layout

I fear there may not be a solution to this issue! I have placed several hotspots on an image in a Fluid Grid Layout div in DW CS6 and the problem is quite straightforward. Whilst the "image" reduces perfectly when viewed in Tablet and Smartphone screens the "hotspots" remain in the same position they were at in the Desktop view! The result is the same irrespective of which view you set the hotspots in. Is there a solution to this problem or is it insurmountable?

OK. Let's just paste the script into your HTML page and see if that works.
Open your page in code view.
Replace this:

<script src="fancybox/maphighlight.js"></script>

With all of this:

<script>
// map highlight JavaScript Document
(function(F){var B,C,I,L,K,H,E,G,A,J;B=document.namespaces;has_canvas=!!document.createElement("canvas").getContext;if(!(has_canvas||B)){F.fn.maphilight=function(){return this};return }if(has_canvas){E=function(M){return Math.max(0,Math.min(parseInt(M,16),255))};G=function(M,N){return"rgba("+E(M.substr(0,2))+","+E(M.substr(2,2))+","+E(M.substr(4,2))+","+N+")"};C=function(M){var N=F('<canvas style="width:'+M.width+"px;height:"+M.height+'px;"></canvas>').get(0);N.getContext("2d").clearRect(0,0,N.width,N.height);return N};I=function(P,M,S,O,N){var R,Q=P.getContext("2d");Q.beginPath();if(M=="rect"){Q.rect(S[0],S[1],S[2]-S[0],S[3]-S[1])}else{if(M=="poly"){Q.moveTo(S[0],S[1]);for(R=2;R<S.length;R+=2){Q.lineTo(S[R],S[R+1])}}else{if(M=="circ"){Q.arc(S[0],S[1],S[2],0,Math.PI*2,false)}}}Q.closePath();if(O.fill){Q.fillStyle=G(O.fillColor,O.fillOpacity);Q.fill()}if(O.stroke){Q.strokeStyle=G(O.strokeColor,O.strokeOpacity);Q.lineWidth=O.strokeWidth;Q.stroke()}if(O.fade){F(P).css("opacity",0).animate({opacity:1},100)}};L=function(M){M.getContext("2d").clearRect(0,0,M.width,M.height)}}else{C=function(M){return F('<var style="zoom:1;overflow:hidden;display:block;width:'+M.width+"px;height:"+M.height+'px;"></var>').get(0)};I=function(N,Q,R,U,M){var S,T,O,P;S='<v:fill color="#'+U.fillColor+'" opacity="'+(U.fill?U.fillOpacity:0)+'" />';T=(U.stroke?'strokeweight="'+U.strokeWidth+'" stroked="t" strokecolor="#'+U.strokeColor+'"':'stroked="f"');O='<v:stroke opacity="'+U.strokeOpacity+'"/>';if(Q=="rect"){P=F('<v:rect name="'+M+'" filled="t" '+T+' style="zoom:1;margin:0;padding:0;display:block;position:absolute;left:'+R[0]+"px;top:"+R[1]+"px;width:"+(R[2]-R[0])+"px;height:"+(R[3]-R[1])+'px;"></v:rect>')}else{if(Q=="poly"){P=F('<v:shape name="'+M+'" filled="t" '+T+' coordorigin="0,0" coordsize="'+N.width+","+N.height+'" path="m '+R[0]+","+R[1]+" l "+R.join(",")+' x e" style="zoom:1;margin:0;padding:0;display:block;position:absolute;top:0px;left:0px;width:'+N.width+"px;height:"+N.height+'px;"></v:shape>')}else{if(Q=="circ"){P=F('<v:oval name="'+M+'" filled="t" '+T+' style="zoom:1;margin:0;padding:0;display:block;position:absolute;left:'+(R[0]-R[2])+"px;top:"+(R[1]-R[2])+"px;width:"+(R[2]*2)+"px;height:"+(R[2]*2)+'px;"></v:oval>')}}}P.get(0).innerHTML=S+O;F(N).append(P)};L=function(M){F(M).find("[name=highlighted]").remove()}}K=function(N){var M,O=N.getAttribute("coords").split(",");for(M=0;M<O.length;M++){O[M]=parseFloat(O[M])}return[N.getAttribute("shape").toLowerCase().substr(0,4),O]};J=function(O,N){var M=F(O);return F.extend({},N,F.metadata?M.metadata():false,M.data("maphilight"))};A=function(M){if(!M.complete){return false}if(typeof M.naturalWidth!="undefined"&&M.naturalWidth==0){return false}return true};H={position:"absolute",left:0,top:0,padding:0,border:0};var D=false;F.fn.maphilight=function(O){O=F.extend({},F.fn.maphilight.defaults,O);if(!has_canvas&&F.browser.msie&&!D){document.namespaces.add("v","urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml");var N=document.createStyleSheet();var M=["shape","rect","oval","circ","fill","stroke","imagedata","group","textbox"];F.each(M,function(){N.addRule("v\\:"+this,"behavior: url(#default#VML);

Dreamweaver sc6 fluid grid layouts and nivo slider

I have the nivo slider pretty much set up on my home page, with one exception. I have a sidebar to the right of the slider and the slider bullets end up above the sidebar as opposed to below and centered below the slider. If I remove the sidebar and set the slider div to the full width of the page, then the bullets end up where the should be (centered and below the slider).
What do I have to do so that the bullets end up centered and below the slider when I have a sidebar to the right of the slider?
Thanks.

The site is not live so I don't know how to post a url for it for viewing. I inserted a print screen of the preivew in internet explorer from dreamweaver (I hope this helps), you can at least see the bullets for the slider above the sidebar. Also, the source code for the page is below. If this is not enough please let me know what else I can include that might allow someone to help me. Thanks.

Background images in fluid grid layouts Dreamweaver CS6

How can I get a background image png or jpg original size 1040w by 840h to scale down in the tablet and mobile layouts in Dreamweaver CS6 fluid grid layout?

Adding one of these in your CSS should do the trick...
background-size:contain;
or
background-size:cover;
Depending on the layout of your background image, one may work better than the other.

How to get 100% width in fluid grid layout CC

I'm currently getting to grips with dreamweaver's fluid grid layout and cant seem to get a div to go the full 100% width across the screen. Ive created a div outside of the grid container as a non fluid div, and entered in the CSS myself in code view since Dreamweaver doesnt seem to allow you to add a class or ID to non fluid elements in design view. I have done this and all though i thought i had achieved success i noticed when looking closely in live view and when previewed in chrome that there is still a tiny gap between the div and the edge of the screen. Its very small, but its definitely there. Ive enetered width to be 100% and its definitely not simply 100% width of the grid container as its wider. I just cant account for the tiny gap which seems to be about 1 pixel wide. Any ideas whats causing this gap?

Depending on your project goals, there are plenty of other Responsive Frameworks you can use.

Dreamweaver CC fluid grid, can I change the position of DIV's based on Mobile, Tablet, Desktop view?

Hi all,
Currently working on my first Dreamweaver CC fluid grid / responsive site. I want to optimise the pages layout for Mobile, Tablet and Desktop.
I can see that I can hide individual div elements by adding "display: none;" to the mobile media query code in the CSS.
I am wondering am I able to change the position of DIV's in relation to the order of each other some how using a similar way?
Eg I have a webpage design for desktop like.
Title
Nav
Description
Buy Button
Photo
On mobile I'd like to be able to bring that Photo up towards the top of the layout eg.
Title
Nav
Photo
Description
Buy Button
I was hoping those up and down arrows you see in the Dreamweaver CC interface was going to some how make the changes to each view Mobile, Tablet, Desktop, but all that is doing is moving the position of code in the HTML amoung each of the main DIV sections.
Or am I at the point where I will need to create a seperate page for mobile only to make a layout change like this?
Any help would be great

Hi Complexity,
I have got some further info, and if I have lead you astray I am sorry.
I don't think you can change the order of the divs in a responsive layout in DW CC.
However, you can arrange the divs to sit under or beside each other differently in each of the layouts, for pc, tablet or phone.
You can also switch divs off and on in each of the layouts, having them display in one size screen and not in another.
So what you would need to do is to create a couple of nav divs, if you want a nav at the top of one type of screen and one at the bottom. You could duplicate the content in both of them and switch one on in one layout and one off in the other.
I hope this helps!
I am doing my first layout for a client using DW CC responsive layouts. I have done two test/hobby sites already.
It is a bit of a mission learning it but I am getting there.
I do find it interesting that most people recommend using other programs to do responsive rather than Dreamweaver's fluid grid layouts. I don't think many people are using it yet.
Regards,
Mary

Fluid Grid Layout Alignment Issue

I'm using Dreamweaver CC Fluid Grid Layout. This is my first time using Dreamweaver, (and first time posting to Adobe Community) so I don't have a ton of experience. Somehow, the whole body of all my pages has been aligned left and I can't find anywhere in the CSS or the HTML of the individual pages that would make it do so. I even tried inserting a body: align: center in the CSS and also in the HTML of each page and it just won't respond. Does anyone have any ideas? I'd really REALLY appeciate some help with this because I'm totally at a loss. Below is my CSS and the HTML for my index.html .

Text size fluid grid layout

I am using Dreamweaver cs6 fluid grid layout. Is there a way to change the text size for the different layouts? For example I would like the header text to be 16px on the desktop but only 12px on the mobile.
Thank you!

This makes sense although I have not been about to make it work. Should each of these be inserted into the corresonding device section of the css? Thank you for your help!

Green highlight when working with Fluid Grid Layout Div tags

What does the green highlight mean when working in Live view of a Fluid Grid Layout using Fluid Grid Layout Div Tags? Sometimes they show up, but sometimes they don't. I think it has something to do with the width setting but I can't figure out what the rule is or what the highlight indicates.

THANK YOU!!

the green highlight sometimes disappears when modifying the width property of the div. My question is what does this signify?
If you change the width of a div manually in Code view or in the CSS styles panel, Dreamweaver ceases to treat it as a fluid grid layout div, and the green highlighting disappears.
To be treated as a fluid grid layout div, the width must be adjusted by dragging the handles in Design view. Dreamweaver snaps fluid grid layout divs to the grid that is defined when you first create the page, and it calculates the width and margins to many decimal places. If the width and/or margin doesn't match the grid dimensions, the highlighting disappears, and the div is treated as any other div.
It's not a bug, nor are fluid grid layout divs any different from normal ones. The idea of the grid and the highlighting is to allow you to create a responsive layout according to a hypothetical grid. Once you've created the basic structure, it's best to turn off the visual guides anyway.
Personally, I think that the implementation of fluid grid layouts in Dreamweaver CS6 leaves a lot to be desired. The basic idea is good, but it's difficult to use if you don't have a solid understanding of CSS.

Fluid Grid Layout - Beginner's Questions

First, let me explain once again that I can't reply to my own threads because the "Reply" function isn't working in my browsers for some reason. (Thanks for your tips on my other questions, Ben Pleysier and Nancy O.)
Anyway, I want to modify my websites so they work in mobile devices, and I now have my first Fluid Grid Layout up and running. However, there are some bugs I need to work out.
I experimented with two or three fluid grids and just realized that they're very different for some reason. I think I inserted the wrong elements or inserted them in the wrong location.
Does the HTML code below look OK? I understand that everything is supposed to be inside div.gridContainer, which begs the question why are the last two divs (div.fluid and div#div1) OUTSIDE div.gridContainer? Are these extraneous divs that I can delete?
Am I supposed to have a div#page and div data-role="header"?
It looks like all my actual content - including the footer? - should go inside div data-role="content", right? And am I going to have to apply class="fluid Paragraph" to every paragraph in my database tables?
Some of the confusion may be because some of these unfamiliar elements (e.g. "data-role") may be HTML5, which I'm also just learning about.
If anyone could post a link to a web page(s) using Dreamweaver's Fluid Grid Layout, so I can examine the source code, it would be really helpful. Thanks!
<body>
<div class="gridContainer clearfix">
<div data-role="page" id="page">
    <div data-role="header">
    <?php require_once($BaseINC."/$MyPHP/inc/D/Shared/Body/Header.php"); ?>
    </div>
    <div data-role="content">CONTENT </div>
    <br class="clearfloat">
    <header class="fluid Header">This is the content for Layout Header Tag "Header"</header>
    <p class="fluid Paragraph">This is the content for Layout P Tag "Paragraph"</p>
    <footer class="fluid Footer"><?php require_once($BaseINC."/$MyPHP/inc/D/Shared/Footer.php"); ?></footer>
</div>
</div>

<div class="fluid DivBase">This is the content for Layout Div Tag "DivBase"</div>
<div id="div1" class="fluid">Use Insert Panel for additional Fluid Grid Layout Elements. Note: All Fluid Layout tags must be contained within the "gridContainer" div tag.</div>

</body>
</html>

#1 Success with FGLayouts comes from experience. I built 9 test layouts before I got an acceptable one. A few tips. Build Mobile first because that is what everything else is based on. Then build Tablet & finally Desktop. Do not tamper with code in FluidGrid.css or Boilerplate.css files. Use a separate, external style sheet for your content styles.
#2 Depends on whether or not you want the divs to fall outside your #gridContainer. For example, let's say you want a 100% width header & footer that stretches the entire width of your page in all devices. In that scenario, you would have to move <header> and <footer> tags above and below gridContainer div. Otherwise, everything else needs to be inside the gridContainer in order to respond to the media queries.
#3 APDivs will not work right in FluidGrid Layouts -- or any RWD for that matter -- so don't even go there.

Fluid Grid Layout JavaScript Bug?

I've been playing with Dreamweaver's Fluid Grid Layout, and it's going better than I expected - easier than I thought.
At the moment, I have one odd problem, though. If I insert an anchor - like #TopPage - then link to that anchor...[a href="#TopPage">Top of Page</a>]...it doesn't work.
Actually, it does work if I manually type in the link, like mysite.com/People#TopPage. But if I put the cursor over a link and click it, the URL in the browser window doesn't change. I get the same results in both Chrome and Safari.
The weird thing is that if I click a link to a different web page, then it does work - but only in Chrome. If I click a link in Safari, the URL changes in the browser window, but the new page doesn't load.
It looks like the culprit is this file - jquery-mobile/jquery-1.6.4.min.js. If I delete it, the links work fine.
(I'm linked to two other JS files -
respond.min.js and jquery-mobile/jquery.mobile-1.0.min.js, but they don't appear to be causing any problems.)
Does anyone have any idea what's going on here?

"Could be an old JS."
That's weird; on a whim, I created a new fluid grid layout and discovered it's linked to just one JavaScript file - respond.min.js
I'm not sure how I picked up the other JS links, unless it was when I was trying to figure out how to insert a JS widget. Anyway, I deleted the other two JS links, and it works fine now.
Thanks.

Fluid grid layouts gutter to 0%

With Dreamweaver CC Fluid Grid Layouts, is there a way to set gutters to 0% so that the divs will align left and right, no spacing? I am trying to create a masonry grid image gallery. Thanks, Susan

Thank you for replying Nancy. I have created several website in DW but never using Fluid Grids Layouts. I know HTML and CSS, so if there is a way to have this work successfully, I might be able to implement it, with a push in the right direction.
Kind regards,
Susan

Setting overall styles in DW CC fluid grid layout

I have just watched this tutorial on Adobe TV about fluid grid layout in DW CC: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-dreamweaver-cc/create-fluid-responsive-web-pages-in-dreamw eaver/community#community
This is a great start, but I need to know more!
Where do I set the body text, background, background tile and drop shadows, plus the H1 to H4 and a link attributes? Is it in the <div class="gridContainer clearfix"> or do I do i somewhere else? I saw another video on fluid grid layouts that briefly mentioned using a separate css stylesheet for fonts as 'it was better' but no more detail was given.
Also where can I change the a link attributes in a div if I want different a link styles in that div to the rest of the website? I can't see an area in the properties panel where I can change a link behaviour.
Thanks so much.

Generally, when you are building a website, you want your styles in a separate style sheet (a CSS document). With respect to the tutorial, he details that he is creating a CSS document he calls "style.css" and saves it in the local root folder. I usually place my style sheets in a /css/ folder but, for the purpose of his demonstration, placing it in the root of the defined site in Dreamweaver is just fine.
Now, once he has saved his initial HTML file, Dreamweaver CSS tells him that his document needs two more documents that Dreamweaver will pull in from the Dreamweaver library. One is a JavaScript document, respond.min.js, that handles figuring out what to do on a cell phone, versus a tablet, versus a desktop and the other is "boilerplate.css" that handles fluid grids. If you look at the HTML document, you'll see links to these three files in the root of the defined site.
Now, you'll notice when he's creating the header (id="top") and doing the centering of the logo image, he tells you to select the corect stylesheet, namely "style,css."
Here's the essential problem with the way he's showing you how to do this. You're not actually working in the code. He's demonstrating all of these panels and entry areas for Adobe's Dreamweaver that actually hide the code from you. In fact, he encourages this by switching you from "Split" view to Design (only) view for centering the logo image.
I think this is disingenuous. Everyone here in this forum will tell you, "You need to learn HTML and CSS." And they're absolutely correct. Dreamweaver's fluid grid layout gizmo may not ever define body text, background, background tile, drop shadows or your "h" tags at all. Or, they may be defined, but you are never taken to the code that shows you those definitions.
Open the CSS document that is the basis of the tutorial, which is style.css. In that document, you should see a "body" definition like this:
body {
          background-color: #FFFFFF;
color: #000;
          font-family: "Lucida Sans Unicode", "Lucida Grande", sans-serif;
          margin: 0px 0px 30px 0px;
In English, this means your background color is white and your text color is black. You're using Lucida Sans Unicode or Lucida Grande as your typeface, defaulting to sans-serif if those are not available. You have a 30-pixel bottom margin, no margins for either top or sides.
If you need to create a background color or tile, you would change the background-color attribute or, if you are tiling a background, you would place the following in the body definition in CSS:
background-image: url("images/tile.jpg");
This assumes you have a file in your /images/ folder in the root of your defined site called tile.jpg. Since you did not include a background-repeat command, your tile will repeat x and y.
And if you don't want a tiled background in your body and do want it in a different div, you simply look for the name of the div in your CSS and put it there.
As to your heading styles, you may find them all ready defined in your CSS document. You may redefine them or create new header styles.
This should get you started. The key is to open the CSS document, "style.css" and see what's there.

Repositioning DIVs in a DW6 fluid grid layout

I've followed James Williamson's video tutorial on fluid grid layouts http://tv.adobe.com/watch/learn-dreamweaver-cs6/using-fluid-grid-layouts/ and have created something similar.
Williamson gives his DIVs fairly standard ID names. He starts with "header", ends with "footer" and places three DIVs in between: "article", "interview" and "artwork" (around 6:20 in the video).
The desktop layout is a standard three column layout with a header and footer while in the mobile layout all the divs stack up one on top of the other.
In Williamson's tablet layout, he adjusts the width of the DIVs so two site below the header ("article" and "interview") and he makes the third ("artwork") span the full width (he shows the three layouts in a browser from 15.00 to 15.20 in the video).
What I would like to do in the tablet layout is have the third column ("artwork") sits below "article" while the middle div, "interview" (which in my case is taller, due to having more content) sits to the right of them both.
Is this possible using DW6's fluid layout grid, or would I have to create the layout manually from scratch?

No. The way that Dreamweaver's Fluid Grid Layouts work is by floating all divs to the left. New rows are created by setting the clear property to left. As a result, you cannot have a div on the right that spans the height of multiple divs on the left.
The divs must be displayed in rows in the same order as they appear in the underlying HTML. To get two divs on the left alongside a taller one on the right, you would need to wrap the left-hand divs in an outer div. The outer div can be snapped to the grid, but not the inner ones.
As Nancy says, failing miserably with the Fluid Grid Layout feature is much easier than succeeding. It reminds me of Dreamweaver's earlier love affair with "layers" (absolutely positioned divs) -- well intentioned, but fatally flawed.
