Dreamweaver CS3 Flash Slideshow problems

Hello,
First off, my name is Mike and I would really appreciate anything that you can do to help me.
I'm attempting to use Dreamweaver CS3's Flash Slideshow on a site that I'm building for a friend and I'm having troubles. I have two major issues:
1. I've uploaded my page to a test folder located on my own site.
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/Main.html
As you can see when you go to that page the Flash Slideshow is not appearing. I've attempted to figure this issue out as much as I can, but I'm not getting anywhere.
Using Dreamweaver to test I've deleted the AC script and it appears exactly like how it does now that it's live, so I believe that the problem lies in the Slideshow being able to find the script. What I don't understand is that the AC_RunActiveContent.js is in a folder titled '..Scripts' (which is located in the same 'NoahTest' folder as the 'Main.html')and there should be no problem with it sourcing the Script.
I'm perplexed as to why it's not reading the .js file.
2. When I preview the site in my Dreamweaver Preview it works fine, except for the fact that it looks like it's padding the size of the pictures.
I have all of the dimensions specific to the size of the slice in my site. The slideshow should be 924x668 to match the slice exactly, so that's what I told it to be in width and height. I've turned all borders to 0, frame thickness to 0, and I've even tried to add a command to change cell padding to 0, all with no effect. I've made a still screen capture for you to see my problem.
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/WhiteBorderProblem.jpg
I've left the Background White so you can see how it's not sizing the Slideshow correctly. So the White Border isn't really a border, but a sizing/spacing issue. I don't know what could be causing this.
If you could help me with one or both of these issues I would be so grateful. Thanks for your time.
Respectfully,
Mike

So, bemdesign, you're not seeing the white padding-like effect that I snapped a screen shot of? See here:
http://www.mikebailey1979.com/NoahTest/WhiteBorderProblem.jpg
I've tested the page 'Main.html' that I have live right now using Firefox, IE8, and Safari, and it's still doing this padding issue for me (if that's even what it's supposed to be called).
After a little research I found a post on another site where tons of people are having the same problem as me:
http://brianchau.wordpress.com/2007/07/17/where-is-the-flash-element-in-dreamweaver/
The very last post someone mentions that they fixed the issue that I'm experiencing by adding div tags specifying width and height. I've tried implementing this, but since I'm somewhat novice with coding still I'm not sure if I'm doing it correctly. Adding the div tags in various places seems to have either no effect or it changes the w & h values of the entire page, both of which not being my intention.
Can anyone here who is more advanced at coding than me who can tell me the proper way to implement the div tags in my situation?
This is the code for my page:

Dreamweaver and Flash site problems

I have completed my website. It's built in Dreamweaver CS3
with Flash CS3 movies in the Dreamweaver html files. I created it
on a MAC. I have no problem seeing everything on a MAC, but PC
users cannot get around the site. Some buttons won't work. Loads
slowly. Help!

It is built in both Flash and Dreamweaver version CS3 on MAC
using Action Script 2. Here's the problem. In four of the Flash
files we created buttons using the getURL coding to send the viewer
to a new page which is in the root directory on the ftp site with
rest of the site. This buttons do not work on PC's. The other of
the buttons in the site were created in dreamweaver which are
working fine for both Mac and PC. When we load the entire site up
to our FTP site, anyone working on a MAC is able to go through the
site from page to page, and the buttons built in Flash work fine.
However, folks working on PCs cannot get the buttons built in the
Flash pages to work.
If you go to barnesandliston.com, click on photography at the
bottom of the home game and then click on sports or nature or
picture story you'll see that those links don't work (if you are on
a PC). Those are the buttons created in Flash that only work on a
Mac. Code follows:
nature_btn.onPress = function() {
getURL("
http://www.barnesandliston.com/nature",
"_self");
};

Dreamweaver CS3 Flash Video Issue

I have Dreamweaver CS3 running in OS X 10.4.11 all updated.
all of a sudden when I go to insert a Flash Video into a page I get the wheel of death and DW is frozen. I formatted the video in Flashconverter and it plays fine in mpeg streamclip.
The Insert dialog opens and I can chose the flash video and then hit detect size and the controls I want. and then I hit ok and the wheel comes up and never goes away.
If I create a new sit it will let me add the video.
Any ideas why this is happening?
Thanks
jeff E

What OS? Does the problem happen with all files and all
sites, just some,
or just one?

Dreamweaver CS3 First Run problems

Installing Dreamweaver CS3 Saga.
I've had some trouble and despite looking for answers and
trying a few things I'm getting nowhere. I've included a timeline
of events below to help explain.
0) System: New Dell Opliplex 745 running XP Pro Sp2 and
networked to a domain. Educational License ordered for MOPS school.
Disk delivered.
1) Tried installing in regular user's account. When it
prompted for admin details, I entered them, but it didn't work.
Insufficient rights to install, fair enough.
2) Logged on as domain admin. Tried installing. Failed!
Insufficient rights. Hmmm.
3) Logged on to local computer as administrator. Installed.
Success! However, could not find the serial number so selected
"trial" option. All worked ok. Emailed supplier to find out why
serial was not included with disk.
4) Gave regular user full admin rights on computer to avoid
future hassles.
5) Obtained serial from supplier (it was on the invoice).
Entered serial number while logged on as user. Dreamweaver accepted
serial but then a blank dialog box (titled Adobe Dreamweaver CS3)
opened over the top of the rest of Dreamweaver and froze up access
to Dreamweaver. Can't close box, can't interact with box apart from
moving it around over the top of DW. It doesn't count as a separate
window in the task bar.
6) Ended Dreamweaver process, loaded it again. Blank dialog
box appeared yet again however Dreamweaver began some adobe
updating. ~140mb download. Around 20mb in, some files began
installing - so far so good. Then, adobe updater vanished and we're
back to frozen dialog box.
7) Restarted computer. Logged on as user again, ran
Dreamweaver again. Frozen blank dialog box again HOWEVER I did find
that if I was quick I could interact normally with Dreamweaver,
open files, etc for a few seconds until dialog box kicks in. Also
when ending the task instead of ending the process, the windows
message says "The system cannot end this program because it is
waiting for a response from you. To return to windows and check the
status of the program, click cancel. If you choose to end the
program immediately, you will lose any unsaved data. To end the
program, click End Now." Obviously this refers to the blank dialog
box but I can't interact with the box so I can't respond to DW.
8) Remembering previous troubles, logged off and logged on to
local machine as administrator. Ran Dreamweaver again. This time an
initial dialog box asking about file associations popped up. Then,
Adobe update began running, this time 120mb download. Once again,
around 20mb in, some files installed and then Dreamweaver frozen
dialog box once more is revealed. The rest of the updates are
nowhere to be seen, adobe updater does not seem to be running any
more.
9) Found an issue in forums with corrupt Bonjour installation
causing DNS trouble. Figured this might be affecting the updates,
uninstalled the service as outlined elsewhere on this forum. Did
not help.
10) Decided to attempt a repair install from the disk. It
seemed to work but then only the shared components seemed to
install. But underneath that in the installation window, it said
both Dreamweaver and the Shared Components failed to install. So
did it fail or did it not fail? Your guess is as good as mine.
11) Ran Dreamweaver again. This time, a green "scrolling
credits" style window appeared, with "Click here to continue". Upon
clicking, the credits window disappeared and all looked well. I
alt-tabbed to something else but when I went back into Dreamweaver
the blank dialog window was back again.
I've searched the net, and scanned these forums but I am
unable to find a similar issue or any clue as to how to proceed
next.
I am going to try to uninstall Dreamweaver and reinstall it
fully, while logged on as local admin, probably I will use the CS3
clean script that I found on the forums to make sure its all gone;
and then I will enter the serial at the same time as installation
to avoid ever triggering the trial installation conditions. In the
meantime if anyone has any suggestions feel free to chip in with
ideas.
PS Further information which I just remembered: Internet
access is restricted by a proxy. Adobe updater worked fine after
giving it username and password to log on to the proxy. Perhaps
this frozen screen is trying to access the internet?

Further information - when I tried to uninstall I was advised
by the uninstaller that I should deactivate CS3. But I couldn't
find how to do that in the few seconds before everything freezes.
I had an inspiration to pull the network plug out and sure
enough, the frozen window became a window which reads:
Dreamweaver is unable to connect to the internet to register
your product. I selected "Register Never" so hopefully this will
fix my problem!

Dreamweaver CS3 Paste HTML Problem

Hi, I'm a fairly basic user of Dreamweaver CS3. I used to be
able to paste HTML into webpages with no problem. I have recently
upgraded to CS3 and that menu command (Paste HTML) seems to have
gone. Can anybody help?
Thanks, your help would be appreciated!

If you want to paste the actual HTML code into a page, just
switch to
Code view, and paste.
Copy, cut, and paste in Dreamweaver are context-specific. If
you copy a
section of a page in Design view, and paste it in Design
view,
Dreamweaver automatically copies and pastes the underlying
HTML. If you
copy in Code view, and paste into Design view, Dreamweaver
assumes that
you want to display the code (as you might want to do in an
online
tutorial), so it converts all the angle tags into HTML
entities and
displays the tags and attributes in the page.
The simple rule is copy and paste from Code view to Code
view, or from
Design view to Design view.

Dreamweaver CS3 Flash Prof CS3 and the web

I am a beginner web designer, but I have search for this
answer for DAYS now! I have placed flash in a html file in
Dreamweaver CS3. I have tried to get it to show up on the web to no
avail. It plays fine in Dreamweaver, but doesn't show up in the
preview (not even the dreaded white box). The white box shows up
when I try to view the site online. I know the html file is there
because the html graphics show up, but the flash media doesn't. I
have double checked that both local and ftp directories match. I
have uploaded the script file and the AC_RunActiveContent file to
the server in the same directory as the local. I have tried
uploading just the Scripts file, just the AC_RunActiveContent file,
and both - to see whatever works! In my anguish I have also double
checked my flash publish settings (played with them to see if that
helped, and then reversed them back to step 1), made sure my images
(flash and html) were there, and gone in and double checked the
script source code in the html file to make sure it embeds the
source, absolute. I am ready to pull my hair out or declare another
occupation! Is this just CS3 craziness, or will the answer be
revealed to me in a dream!

Hi,
I suggest posting this question in the "Dreamweaver General Discussion" forums, as it´s not related to the Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox

Dreamweaver cs3 deactivation/activation problem

I am trying to deactivate Dreamweaver CS3 on my windows pc and it is not working. I have tried to activate it on my laptop but am having no success with that either. My Dreamweaver CS3 serial number is
<Edited by moderator>
Please can someone help with this problem ?

Broadcasting your serial number to the entire internet probably isn't going to help things in the activation department.
Can a moderator delete that?

Dreamweaver CS3 Design View Problem

I am trying to edit a Dreamweaver site using Dreamweaver CS3 on a Windows XP workstation at work. The site structure was developed by an outside vendor and has been designed using CSS for positioning -- no tables. It is my responsibility to finish the site using template pages provided. When viewing the site in several browsers -- both Mac and PC, everything is fine. When I open the site in Dreamweaver CS3 Windows, all of the positioning is off -- the menus that should be flush left of the text colum, instead, appear at the top of the text column. This issue is repeated throughout the site. Since I am using existing pages as templates for new ones, I'm forced to make edits in code view, upload and then view in my browser. My outside vendor, so far, does not have an answer to this.
This weekend at home, I've installed an old Dreamweaver 8 trial version on my Macintosh. I downloaded the site and everything looks fine in Design View. Any ideas? Is this a settings issue on my Windows version of Dreamweaver? I do have the Style Rendering setting set to Screen Media type.

Hi,
I found this thread after searching and searching for an answer as to why my Design View in DW CS3 started disappearing (even in split view). It will show a partial view, but never the entire view all at once, even after restarting my PC. I have been using CS3 for a few years now and it just started having this issue. When this issue started, nothing had changed on my computer. There has to be a fix for this. Why did it work fine all these years and now, no design view????

Dreamweaver CS3 strange FTP problem

Helllo,
I have just passed from windows to Mac (I got Leopard) .... I
have installed Dreamweaver CS3
and I have imported all the site definition (like Host FTP,
username, password, etc...) from the windows version
But when I try to connect to any server, I recive this error
"An FTP error occured - cannot make connection to host
no response from the server this may be due to one or more
reasons:
- Accessing the server requires firewall settings that aren't
properly set. Please verify that the firewall settings in the Site
category of the Preferences dialog box are properly set, and that
the Use Firewall option in the Site definition dialog box is
selected.
- The server may be accepting only passive mode or only
active mode. Toggling the "Use Passive FTP" checkbox may help you
establish a connection.
- If you are connecting to an IPv6 enabled server, please
select "Use IPv6 transfer mode" checkbox in the Advanced site
definition dialog.
- Your local firewall may be blocking the incoming FTP data.
Please disable it to see if it makes a difference.
- It is possible your FTP may be using a non-standard FTP
port (21). If you need to specify a non-standard port, enter the
port number after host name separated by a colon":". "
I have tryed to use other FTP programs and I got mix results:
Cyber Duck and Fetch are working
Fugu and Filezilla for Mac do not connect to any server
I am clueless .... .... can someone give me a hand?
thanks in advance

Are you running a firewall?

Dreamweaver CS3 - Database Panel Problem

I set up a site in Dreamweaver CS3 trial - my ColdFusion data
driven pages display OK in browser preview but I when I try to
display my datasources in the Database panel I get error "server
name or address cannot be resolved" even though the server name is
correct and working. The site's testing server is set up properly
(they run in the browser) and coldfusion is running properly.
I removed the connection scripts but that was no help. I'm
using the miserable SQLServer 2005Express (I tried checking
security permissions in WinXP - my file system is NTFS so there
*should* be a "Security" tab present in properties for me the
change permissions but it's not there...
i've run out of ideas - does anyone have any suggestions that
I can try?
thanks!

I can't help you with the central issue, but permissions in
XP are
controlled by a setting in folder options.
start, control panel, folder options, view. Near the bottom
of the list
is an option that by default is checked - "Use simple file
checking".
Try unchecking it, and you should be able to access the full
security
tab for files.

Dreamweaver CS3 Site Manager Problem

I am using Dreamweaver CS3 and when I define my sites in the
Site Manager, for some reason now when I definte the Host
Directory, which looks like this:
"//caflsd/share/DEPTS/BIOSCI/BSWeb/ " (note the two "/" at the
beginning) once I hit the done button and try to connect, I get an
FTP error, and when I go back in to the Site Manager, I will see
that one of the slashes in front of the Host Directory Address is
removed, so it looks like this "/caflsd/share/DEPTS/BIOSCI/BSWeb/"
which misses the first slash. When I put it in manually while in
the Site Manager and test the connection while in the Site Manager,
it works fine...however, when I hit OK and Done, it always cuts out
the extra "/" and then the site will not connect outside of the
Site Manager. How can I get it to stop this?

i posted a reply. sorry new to this forum. the only message I receive is that there is no repsonse from the server. Initially I can connect fine and downloand all remote files. It is only when I go to upload that I get disconnected. I can upload fine with an older version of DW. I do not know if I can upload to other sites.
I called my server and was told everything on their end was fine and they tested it and was able to upload. So I am thinking it must be DW CS3

Dreamweaver CS3 frameset browse problem

When I click to preview in a browser for a .CFM file which
contains a frameset, Dreamweaver opens the browser with the
PHYSICAL path (eg. C:\CFusionMX7\wwwroot\mysite\frameset.cfm) and
so all that is displayed in the browser is markup. On the other
hand, if I click to preview in a browser for any other .CFM file,
Dreamweaver correctly opens the page using the web url (eg.
http://localhost:8501/mysite/test.cfm)
and so the page is parsed properly.
Also, If I click the "Live Data Viewer" button on the
frameset page, then I get a message:
The testing server did not execute any of the scripts in your
document. Possible explanations: Testing server is not running.
Testing server ignores .cfm files.
That message only occurs on the frameset page. Other .CFM
pages display correctly in the Live Data Viewer.

Broadcasting your serial number to the entire internet probably isn't going to help things in the activation department.
Can a moderator delete that?

Dreamweaver CS3/Flash problem

Hi everyone, I recently upgraded to Dreaweaver CS3 from 2004
MX. However, I'm having a problem trying to display a Flash banner
on my website.
My site is www.flaccidsacks.co.uk, you'll notice on the index
page the Flash banner at the top.
However, I updated a couple of pages, and you'll see if you
click on "Record Labels" that the Flash banner doesn't appear. The
source doesn't even appear to have the name of the Flash file.
However, in the Dreamweaver design panel the Flash file is in
the correct position, and it appears fine when I preview it. It
seems though that Dreamweaver is doing something when I publish the
page that's preventing the Flash banner from appearing.
I would be very grateful for anyone who can spare a minute to
help me.

When you clicked "yes" a folder named Scripts was generated
in your files.
Upload that folder to the server.

Dreamweaver CS3 / Flash serve viewing problems

I've created my flash inserted it into dreamweaver, previewed it and uploaded the pages and the JS files to my host server again and again and it everything shows up but the flash, nothing, not even a box. Any ideas on what the problem could be? They show up in the root directory on the server. the file I used was the SWF. file. Is there another way to do this?

Hi,
I suggest posting this question in the "Dreamweaver General Discussion" forums, as it´s not related to the Dreamweaver Developer Toolbox
(ADDT) extension.

CS3 flash insertion problems

I just upgraded to CS3. When I insert my swf file dreamweaver
is only placing this in the code:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN" "
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>
<object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="
http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0"
width="670" height="308" title="bob">
<param name="movie" value="/homeMovie4.swf" />
<param name="quality" value="high" />
<embed src="/homeMovie4.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="670"
height="308"></embed>
</object>
</body>
</html>
That's it! Thus when I upload to the server I don't get to
see a flash movie. It worked fine in version 8 but 8 inserted
additional code. PLEASE HELP....is there some option I don't have
turned on?????
Thanks
Andy

Are you sure you just aren't looking at all the code? When I
follow your
steps, I get this -
<script type="text/javascript">
AC_FL_RunContent(
'codebase','

); //end AC code
</script><noscript><object
classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="

width="132" height="82">

</object></noscript>
Note that *your* code IS there, but it's properly placed
within <noscript>
tags. Are you certain you do not have that?
