Dreamweaver Contribute Adds Blank Lines

I'm having trouble with the Dreamweaver/Contribute relationship. I work in Dreamweaver and set my client up to work in Contribute. Over time thousands (200,000) blank lines are added into the file. Normally I use Command>Apply Formatting but eventually the file is so corrupted that this doesn't work and I have to rebuild the file and start over.
Any ideas how to set up Dreamweaver/Contribute so that this does not happy. Or any other problem solving techniques greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hope this solves your problem.

SQL Data Modeler adds blank line to UK Constraints

Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler Version: 2.0.0 Build: 584
I'm migrating my schema designs from Oracle Designer to SQL Developer Data Modeler. When I get to the point of generating SQL files I consistently get an extra blank line added to every unique constraint. My primary key constraints are defined the same way, but they do not have the blank line. See below for an example of the SQL output:
ALTER TABLE ALIAS
ADD CONSTRAINT ALIAS_PK PRIMARY KEY ( ALIAS_NO )
USING INDEX TABLESPACE INDEX1
NOLOGGING
NOSORT
ALTER TABLE ALIAS
ADD CONSTRAINT ALIAS_UK UNIQUE ( ALIAS_NAME )
USING INDEX TABLESPACE INDEX1
NOLOGGING
NOSORT
This blank line causes errors when I execute the SQL script so I have to edit it before using. Did I forget to something or is this a bug?
Thanks,

Dreamweaver/Contribute/CSS issues

Anyone run into issues when creating a site with Dreamweaver and an external CSS and having information edited in Contribute add in-line styles? It is a pain in the rear to continually go back and edit out the in-line styles when the purpose of using contribute is to free me up from that type of content editing.
Any advise would be wonderful.
Eric

then I go to advanced in the create recordset window and get

Dreamweaver has added thousands of blank lines to my code

I installed creative cloud and dreamweaver - I edited a few PHP / HTML / javascript files on my server - now dreamweaver had added thousands of blank lines to my code. It will take days to clean them out and I can't seem to find a "find and replace" or "regular expression" to remove these... first of all... THANKS SO MUCH FOR GIVING ME THIS HEADACHE... and now.... HOW THE FRIG DO I GET RID OF THESE???
It is dreamweaver that did it...
I just tested and proved it.
Took a well formatted html doc....
Edited it (remotely) with two different software -
Then connected Dreamweaver Edited it again... and WHAMO!
11,0000 lines of new blank lines.
Dreamweaver is for sure confusing something as a new line.
Undoubted there is a reason for this... but it is for sure Dreamweaver the culprit for actuating it.
The files are of course downloaded as temp files - edited - and then uploaded at save....
So my tests are true and consistent.
Three different editing software all performing the exact same steps.
Yet - Dreamweaver adds thousands of blank lines.
It looks to me as though it is adding the line where there was a return. Somehow interpreting it as 2 line returns.
Whatever is happening - is happening inside dreamweaver, while using its "files connect to remote server" function.
These are live websites with custom PHP, PHP frameworks, MySQL calls, Javascript and...
I have been using the "Switch Design View To Live View" to test the PHP changes I make right in DreamWeaver.in Dreamweaver, how to prevent it, or how to get rid of the 10's of thousands of returns once they have been added.
If anyone has any actual answers as to why this is happening …. Please let me know.
I am not interested in assumptions from the many here who tend to waste a lot of space and time convoluting these forms.
This is a real problem and has already been proven to be actuated by Dreamweaver... So please... Only answers that may help sort out why or how this is happening within Dreamweaver.
Thank you.
Regards,
Ken

Ken, I just posted a potential solution.
Here is my post:
For people having issues with DW (or any other ftp app) adding extra blank lines: changing the ftp mode to BINARY probably solves this behaviour. It happened once to me when using Filezilla ftp.
Dreamweaver automatically uses ASCII to transfer readable text based files (like html and php). To change this transfer mode to BINARY, open FTPExtensionMap.txt (WIndows in AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration) and edit that file in a text editor.
Then change the appropriate mappings.
Hope that helps fix the problem.It's a known problem in certain cases, though I haven't experienced it a lot (just once a few years ago in Filezilla, actually). It has to do with how a Windows system and certain Linux systems might interpret CR LF and LF line endings.

How to add a blank line in configuration file

Hi,
I would like to add an empty / blank line in my configuration file. (.ini file) as below:

In case you do not have such luxury, like me...
This example VI show an alternative way of inserting empty line/ space between sections of a configuration file...

How can i add a line separator on Dreamweaver?

Hi
How can i add a line separator on Dreamweaver?
Thanks

Do you mean a Horizontal Rule (the <hr/> tag)?
Click where you want it to appear and go to Insert > Horizontal Rule, or drag and drop from the Common heading of the Insert window.
If that's not what you're talking about, could you be a bit more descriptive as to what you are trying to accomplish?

It is really dangerous to give advice about things that you do not know to be true.
You really should not offer speculation as truth... that is harmful to people... not helpful.
It would be one thing to say "could be anything" but to defend dremweaver as "NOT the cause" and sight magic pixie dust and mysticism of editing "remotely" (Remotely... oh?! heaven help us : 0 )
is just completely ridiculous. You are only proving here how little you know and how little you are willing to accept.
I have found other people complaining about the same thing... Dreamweaver adding thousands... and in some cases 10's of thousands of blank lines.
It is not magic pixie dust people... It is Dreamweaver that is doing this under specific conditions.
It is Dreamweaver that did it...
You guys want to gather around Hogwarts and talk about the mystical reasons this must have happened. Go ahead.. say hi to Harry and Hermione for me : )
Just more proof how inept and ridiculousness a place like this is.
How is this helpful to me as a customer?
When what I need is a solution to the problem... a way to fix it or to save myself hours pof headache and lost time....
Nope... instead I get the witches of Adobe conjuring up their mysticism...
Really.... Really... If you cant nbe helpful... why just waste more time and precious data space on the internet with your rhetoric...
Anyone have any >>>>>>>real<<<<<<< answers that are not delusional???

Dreamweaver CS4 adds a tab when we move to new line.

Dreamweaver CS4 adds a tab when we move to new line. This thing was not in CS3, its not a big problem but it disturbs me, so is there any setting to change it.
for example,
Dreamweaver CS3
.hello{
Dreamweaver CS4
.hello{
Thanks in advance

If you're referring to the way that Dreamweaver formats CSS, you can change the options in Preferences (open from the Edit menu on Windows, Dreamweaver menu on the Mac). Select the Code Format category, and click the CSS button at the bottom of the panel. You can set your preferences there.
The way that Dreamweaver handles curly braces is to indent the next line automatically when you press Enter after the opening curly brace. Type your style rules, and press Enter after the last one. When you type a closing curly brace, Dreamweaver CS4 automatically moves it one tab space to the left after you press Enter again.

How to add a blank line/return!

So simple, it would seem, and yet I can't find a way to do this in adobe acrobat!
All I want to do is stick a blank line in the pdf, a return. At the moment the text reads like this?
"jskdbvjkls\bvj\s
skjfdbvjkashbvgkj
askjfnvlkasjnvskjdn"
akfgnvlkasfdnvgkangfdhnsdfgnsfgmnsfmjndfhmjdgfhmjgfhm
I would like it to read like this:
"jskdbvjkls\bvj\s
skjfdbvjkashbvgkj
askjfnvlkasjnvskjdn"
akfgnvlkasfdnvgkangfhmxfhgmnxfhmxgfhmgfxhmghmghm
The narrow text is a poem (in the middle of some prose) and I'd like there to be a space between the end of the poem and the start of the explanation. However, they each seem to be inside different boxes(?) and if I press return to create a blank line, the last line of the poem overlaps with the first line of the prose. I've struggled with this for ages, but can't find a way to do it. Can somebody set me free from this incredibly annoying frustration?

This type of edit should not be performed in the PDF. You need to edit the
original file and then create a new PDF.
If you can't do that then either export it or try to move all the text
"boxes" you see. There's no other way of doing it.

Extra blank lines in source code

I have built a website in Dreamweaver CS4 and have a client editing pages in Contribute CS5. Both of us are working on Windows 7, and the site is hosted on Linux. When she makes edits to the page, something is introducing a GAZILLION blank lines in the source code. A typical page for this site is about 380 lines of code. The problem page is now more than 310,000 lines code with 100-200 blank lines between every "real" line of code. What the...?!
I need to know how to stop this and how to remove the blank lines from the source code using Dreamweaver.
The page in question lives here: http://www.alexandercitychamber.com/member-category.html
HELP!!!
Jeff

Hello, Diane -
We've got two separate issues here, but I think we have the solution to both.
1. How to stop Contribute from adding blank lines in the code, and
2. How to clean up a GAZILLION lines of blank code in a document.
First, Number 1. I assume you're working in Dreamweaver. If not, I'm not sure how to guide you. But, when you define a Contribute Site, there is an area to specify administrative roles and permissions. Under each Role, at the bottom, you will see a popup for what kind of server the site is hosted on. The default is Windows. I had to change this to Unix (Linux) to match the hosting of our problem site. Find out what platform your host is using. You will have to specify this under each admistrative Role. After doing this, I had the client make some edits, then I opened the files in Dreamweaver. No new blank lines. I admit, I still have my fingers crossed somewhat.
Okay, now how to clean up your source code and remove blank lines. A developer friend found this on some forum I had not seen. I don't know where, but I am grateful to the person who wrote it. It didn't get all the blank lines in my files, but I think some of the others, which I removed manually, were probably from the client pasting content in from Word. Here's what to do:
1. Open the file in Dreamweaver
2. Click CTRL + F, or go to EDIT > FIND AND REPLACE
3. Select "Current document" in "Find In" (You can also select the folder if you have multiple files.
4. Search in "Source Code"
5. Check the box labeled "Use regular expression"
6. Type "[\r\n]{2,}" (without quotes) in "Find"
7. Type "\n" (without quotes) in "Replace"
8. Press "Replace All"
The operation chugged for a few minutes with my 301,000-line document. Yours may a take a little longer, but it did work. Good luck!

Suppress embedded field blank lines in Crystal Reports XI is not working

Hi,
We have a text box in a Crytal Reports XI report which has address information in it as follows:
These are individual fields from the database. We check the "suppress embedded field blank lines" option for the text box and preview it in the designer and the suppression works as expected in that when the unit field is blank the whole address line isn't suppressed. However when we run this report using the Report Viewer control in a VB.NET 2005 application the whole address line is suppressed when the unit field is blank.
This appears to be a bug in the suppression logic when the Report Viewer is used to view a report. While yes we can embed a formula into the address line this adds extra maintenance and confusion which is not necessary as it works as expected in the report designer.
I have seen others which are having a similiar issue and the only suggestions are to create your own suppression using formulas, etc. which is only a bandaid and is not the best solution as the suppression works as stated in the designer but not in the viewer embedded in an application. Please indicate if this is a known bug and if this issue has been addressed and fixed in a new merge module.
We are running Crystal XI 11.5.0.313 for the report designer and have deployed the needed dlls to run the reports with our application using the CrystalReports11_5_NET_2005.msm merge module.
Thanks in advance for any assistance in resolving this issue!

Hello,
Moved to .NET SDK forum.
Upgrade to XI R2 SP 6, you are using the original release:
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100011802732008E/crxir2_sp4_full_build.exe
https://smpdl.sap-ag.de/~sapidp/012002523100015859952009E/crxir2win_sp6.exe
And the distribution files are for Visual Studio version of Cr, not R2 build.
