Dreamweaver CS3 Remote Image Issue

Having an issue seeing some remote images and not sure what settings will fix it. I need to include absoulte references in some situations and I cannot see some of the images in design view.
If I have an htm file in the root of the site and do an absoulte reference to an image in a subfolder (the absolute reference includes the full URL ( eg. http://www.mysite.com/images/image1.jpg) I can see the image in design view just fine. However if I have the htm file in a subfolder and do an absolute reference to an image in another subfolder outside of the subfolder that contains my layout, the image does not display in deign view.
Example:
file1.htm is in subfolder /layouts
image1.jpg is in subfolder /images
I do an absolute refence in the code http://www.mysite.com/images/image1.jpg = Cannot see the image1.jpg in design view
If I move the image into any subfolder with the same subfolder as the htm file, the issues is fixed.
Example
file1.htm is in subfolder /layouts
image1.jpg is in subfolder /layouts/images
I do an absolute refence in the code http://www.mysite.com/layouts/images/image1.jpg = I can see image1.jpg in design view
I tried the different site settings for relative refference from Document to Site root and neither seemed to fix the issue
I recently moved over to CS3 from 2004MX and have a lot of files that are affected. I am hoping to not have to do a lot of restructuring to fix this

DW CS3 does not try to map remote images to your local folder, so make sure that your they exist in your remote site.
Also note that DW CS5 loads remote images in a background thread, so your pages will load much faster.

Dreamweaver CS3 Remote View file display

Specs:
Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows XP Pro SP2.
Upgraded from DreamWeaver MX
1680 x 1050 60Hz resolution on vertical display LCD panel
with the monitor turned/displayed verticle so I can view more of
our site tree.
Problem:
When viewing files in split panel display (Remote Site on the
left, Local Files on the right) my Remote Site display will
collapse upward...hiding files from view, but they are actually
still there: I can click Refresh and the tree expands again: After
several seconds or sometimes immediately portions of the
folders/files will collapse/hide again.
It will do this to files I have selected. It will hide files
I have checked out. The worst of it is that sometimes files will
hide or collapse within sub-folders..giving the appearance that
files are stored in incorrect folders.
Thank you for your time

Can you explain the symptoms in more detail? Mixing the use
of DW8 with
DWCS3 would not make remote files appear and disappear.

Dreamweaver CS3 Insert Image

I'm trying to insert an image onto my page. I typically
receive a prompt saying:
"You won't see the element unless View > Visual Aids >
Invisible Elements is checks, and the preference setting for this
element is on"
It puts the following text on a new balnk page without a
prompt:

<title>
<MMString:LoadString id="insertbar/image" />
</title>
I'm really lost. The Visual Aids is grayed out, however the
Invisible Elements is checked.

Bad url.

Dreamweaver CS3 slow performance issue confusions & work arounds

Never mind...I found it.
Of course I have all the firewall, worm, scanning, phishing
filtering, full time protect, and everything else turned off when I
am working on a remote/testing site however I found the Symantec
antivirus email scan being enabled (doesn't it just interact with
my email program?) was getting in the way of DW9 ftp operations,
causing some lagging that was putting DW9 into an unstable mode
during and immediately after (10 seconds) ftp operations.
The CPU still spikes to 99% during ftp functions but DW9
works even though it's likely taxed to the max but when I turn off
email scan DW9 returned to a functioning state during ftp and
remote file view. Whatever it takes huh?
PS: email scanning only never effected DW8.02
My System Info: properly configured (as in: everything works
or I fix it) Toshiba - XP pro SP2 – Pentium 4 - 2.3GHz
– 1.5 GB ram – Intel extreme graphics card 64 MB ram

What does doesn't work mean?
Once the user has logged in, can you output the MM_Username
session variable to the page (in particular the page that the log
in user behavior has set for a successful log in)? You can do that
by simply selecting it in the Bindings panel and dragging into the
design view then previewing the page (after you've logged in of
course).
Also to get better responses (and more folks looking at it),
you should probably post this in the Dreamweaver Application dev
group:

Dreamweaver CS3 Split View Issue

Hello All,
I just got the new dreamweaver CS3 and when working in split
view nothing is refreshing correctly. What I mean is, if I click on
some text in the design portion of dreamweaver to try and change
the font, css assignment, or whatever I cannot. I have to click on
the text, hit refresh (f5) and then the correct information in the
properties panel shows up. I have the same problem when selecting
something in the code portion of the split; it does not select the
portion in the design section. What is the deal? Dreamweaver 8 did
this fine.
Anyone else have this problem?
Alex

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

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

Dreamweaver CS3 (Mac) performance issues

I am running DW CS3 on a MacbookPro 2.16/ 2Gb Mac OS X
10.4.10.
It is slow to respond to mouse actions (constantly hitting
the wrong button as a result), constantly hangs (but comes back to
life eventually), is sometimes slow to type, renders faint dotted
lines across pages (built in MX2004 with CSS) and is generally
CRAP!
It runs slower than MX2004 on the same machine. I have both
versions installed on the machine (but don't run them at the same
time!). I have similar issues with Conribute CS3 not responding as
well.
Please offer some assistance before I throw my computer
across the room! Why is it so fsat on a PC, is something to do with
the way the Mac does Java? Help - i don't want to get rid of my Mac
for a PC!

Hi. I am experiencing the very same problem. No issues for
years up until recently - but my problems started not long after I
installed the latest upgrade for Mac OS 10.5.4 to 10.5.5 - I am
going to use Time Machine to revert back to 10.5.4 it may not be
the answer, nor a long-term solution but it driving me nuts.
I am currently deleting sites out of my site manager and then
reloading them from the STE file everytime I need to work on them.
I have read that this problem existed in Dreamweaver 8 on Windows,
but an update sorted it out - lets hope an update appears soon to
fix this problem.

Dreamweaver CS3 Remote files not visible

Hello,
I have a problem with DW CS3. When I click on remote view, I
cannot see my files. I can connect via Filezilla, and I can log
onto the remote server control panel and all of the files are
there. The site is working fine. When I try "preview in browser"
command, I get a page cannot be found error. Afterward, there is a
folder visible in remote panel with the temp file in it. Here is
what I have tried so far:
Deleted the site in site management panel and set up again as
new site.
Toggled passive FTP, same problem either way.
Everything was working fine until this week when I started
having problems getting DW to connect via ftp. The connection
became intermittent, then seemed to die. Now when I use the site
management panel to test the connections, they work fine, but I
can't see the files.
I have not recently installed or changed any software on my
PC.
I am using Win XP
Any ideas?

Please tell us the following:
1. Do you have a Testing server defined? If so, what are the
field
contents on that page?
2. When you connect to the site and then expand the Files
panel, which
server icon at the top is selected? Is it the one with the
lightning bolt?

Dreamweaver CS3- scrolling image marquee

Hi,
I purchased Adobe Creative Suite 3. I would like to learn how to create animated images. Is this something that Dreamweaver can do or would I need to use another program within the Suite. I am new to the Suite.
How can I create a scrolling marquee of images. I would like these images to scroll left to right horizontally across my home page. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Dreamweaver is not an image editor. It's an HTML authoring system. For
animated images (depending on what you mean by "animated", and what kind of
images they are), you would need to use either Flash, or an animated GIF, or
some javascript function like JQuery, or other third-party sources provide.

You can certainly *do* this in DW, but DW doesn't provide an 'easy button'
approach to it. You would have to either find, and then integrate the
required functions in your page using DW, or find a suitable DW extension
for it. Of course, you could always make a post over on the main
Dreamweaver forum to get a good answer for this, but in my opinion, the best
you can do for this kind of thing would be found here (look at their
slideshow extensions) -

Dreamweaver CS3 Site View issue

When I first connect to my main Website, the local root
folder appears for about 5 seconds. If I don't expand the view
immediately, it disappears and I have to hit the Refresh button to
get it to display. If I expand the folder, the site folders appear,
but the root folder immediately disappears. The biggest problems
with this are 1) I don't have a site folder to select when I want
to do a right-click Select Newer Local; and 2) I can't do a control
collapse to close all the folders in the site. This does not happen
with the Remote site root folder, it remains visible all the time.
Any idea whats going on?

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

No Tables in DW CS3 Remote MySQL Connection

Hello All,
I was hoping forum members would be able to troubleshoot a
Dreamweaver CS3/remote MySQL Connection issue I'm having.
I am successful in connecting to the database but the table
data I created in phpMyAdmin 2.6.3 does not appear in the
Application/Databases menu in DW. Instead of the name of the table,
I get "none".
Since I am new to databases, any help is greatly appreciated.
I did view older posts before submitting this one but the advice
recommended (re-installing the entire MySQL application from
scratch) is not an option. Server is SunOS running PHP 4.4.7 and
MySQL 2.0.20. I'm on Windows XP. Thanks once again.

Was this issue resolved?
I have the same problem now. DW was working fine the one day and the next when I started it it had this connection problem.
I am testing on my local PC. My sites is at http://localhost/
All my connection are working because if I go to http://localhost/index.php I can see my site and if I go to http://localhost/register.php I can even register a new user. It will include the new user details in the data base and everything is working fine. So there is nothing wrong with the connection.
In DW I do have http://localhost/ on the Local Info screen. As I said, all was working fine on the current setup the one day and the next day it did not want to work.
Seems like a very common problem.
I want to buy CS4 and surely hope that the problem has been fixed by now.

Dreamweaver CS3 Freezing on Uploading Files

Has anyone ever have this problem of Dreamweaver CS3 freezing
when uploading a file or multiple files to the remote server?
Mine just started doing that and it's nearly impossible to
work in that condition, I have to force quit everytime I uploaded a
file.
Anyone has a solution to that?
I really appreciate any suggestions and tips! Thanks!

Dreamweaver CS3 hangs on "initializing files" in Windows Vista Home Premium

Hi,
Anybody else encountering this issue? I noticed this7 error
in Windows Vista Home Premium. When you launch Dreamweaver CS3, it
opens the splash screen, displays “initializing files”
and thats it.
Necessary Troubleshooting steps we’re already done to
attempt to launch/fix the program but to no avails.
seems the problem happens on acer computers with 4 gigs of
ram.
You can check it from this
Thread
Thanks! I hope someone from engineering can take a look at
this issue!

Dreamweaver CS3 After Mac Software Update

Dreamweaver CS3 has an issue with CSS background display and
other display issues after installing latest Mac software updates.
Display in browser is unaffected.
The culprit seems to be the Quicktime Version 7.6 update.
Changes to the folder located at System \ Library \ Quicktime seem
to cause an issue with Adobe products.
Solution: Do not intall Quicktime 7.6 update OR after update
replace Quicktime folder with previous version of folder from
backups. Restart computer.

I'm having other similar issues, where the splash window that
launches when you first start the app just sits there for about 3-4
minutes before dreamweaver launches. See no effect with other adobe
apps. This started after a mac update and an adobe update of some
other programs. FYI... I'm using CS4
