Dreamweaver CS4 Javascript Errors

Dreamweaver cs4 on one of my computers displays javascript errors everytime any page that includes server behaviors is opened. Other computer has same version of software, opening the same pages, and it doesn't happen. How can I fix this problem?

12. Recreate the Dreamweaver user configuration folder.Windows:
For Dreamweaver CS3, see "How to re-create the Dreamweaver user configuration folder (CS3 on Windows XP, Vista)" (TechNote kb401118).
For Dreamweaver 8, see "Re-creating the Dreamweaver user configuration folder on Windows" (TechNote 36bda422)
Macintosh:
Quit Dreamweaver
In the Mac Finder, browse to the following folder:
Dreamweaver CS3:
Mac HD/Users/[user]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Dreamweaver 9/Configuration
Dreamweaver 8:
Mac HD/Users/[user]/Library/Application Support/Macromedia/Dreamweaver 8/Configuration
Rename the folder to "Configuration Old"
Restart Dreamweaver and see if the problem persists.

CS4 javascript error in recordset.htm

Hi,
I'm using Webassist eCart with Dreamweaver CS4. I will be doing digital downloads and when trying to add the proper recordset to the checkout_success.php (which tests fine) I get the following error upon hitting ok, javascript error in the recordset.htm. I'm told by webassist that this is a bug in CS4. "Quote: The problem is that DW recordset behavior errors when any other server behaviors are on the page that are'nt using the new EDML technique for building server behaviors." Doe's Adobe have a fix for this, or a solution? Thanks in advance for any help.

I am not sure what error you are talking about, but start by clearing out your JavaScript cache in Step 4 of this TechNote:

If you are still seeing the problem, them specify the exact wording of the error message that you are getting.

Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 Javascript error

I was using adobe dreamweaver CS6 Without any problems
But today i tryed to open adobe dream weaver and i get A lot of javascript errors like MMinit.htm and many other startup errors.
When startup errors end then the program is starting but when i do something, example opening an html or something i get a lot more java script errors and then the program crash
I uninstalled adobe dream weaver and installed it again but still the same problem after reinstall
Help please

Have you tried clearing the program cache file?

Even after a plain reinstall, DW will leave files behind that can affect your program. If you uninstall, make sure to run the Cleaner Tool before you reinstall to get a completely fresh installation of the program...

Dreamweaver/Fireworks javascript error

I've been using Fireworks and Dreamweaver for a while.
I'm rebuilding our website, and made my navigation
bar/buttons in Fireworks just like I did on the previous page.
exported as html.
then I went to dreamweaver and inserted fireworks html... The
buttons worked for a while. one day when I was home I thought I'd
work on it some more, and ever since, whenever I insert the button,
i get this error...
"while executing object tag in fireworks html a javascript
error occured"
i can even start with a blank html file and insert any
fireworks file, even the one that works on the current site, and I
get that error.
I created a new simple button, and still get that error...
The only thing I can think of that's might could have caused
this... at work I have the newer CS3 suite and Dreamweaver 4, and
at home I just have Dreamweaver 4.
Could something have caused this by using both versions when
working on this new site?

> it leaves some javascript code in there...
Oh. I see.
> thanks i will check them out...
Way better than the FW menus.
Good luck.

Dreamweaver and Javascript error only on one site

I receive the following error when trying to select recently modified files from the files panel.
While executing onClick in SelectRecentlyModified.html, the following JavaScript error(s) occurred:
At line 370 of file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS5\Configuration\Menus\MM\SelectRecentlyModified.js": DWfile.getAttributes(listItem) has no properties
I have 4 sites built in DW and only one site is giving this error. After many days of searching the web and trying the few steps I can find on the web related to this error I still have not resolved it.
I am using CS5 Suite, Win XP, have IE7 and Firefox but my default brower is Firefox.

I've now tried that command on multiple sites, including brand new ones I created solely for testing purposes. I also tested it on the same site files on my testing server and in my Subversion repository. I got the same error message every time. This leads me to believe the problem is with the script itself. I would really like to be able to use this feeature.
In addition, the Dreamweaver Help for this feature (copied below) suggests I should be seeing options in this feature's dialog box that I'm not seeing:
Find recently modified files in your site
In the collapsed Files panel (Window > Files), click the Options menu in the upper-right corner of the Files panel, and then select Edit > Select Recently Modified.
Do one of the following to indicate search dates for the report:
To report on all files modified in the last several days, select Files Created or Modified in the Last and enter a number in the box.
To report on all files modified within a specific time frame, click the Files Created or Modified in the Between radio button, then specify a date range.
(Optional) Enter a user name in the Modified By box to limit your search to files modified by a specific user between the dates you indicated.Note: This option is only available for reports on Contribute sites.
Select a radio button to indicate where you want to view files listed in the report, if necessary:
Local Machine
if the site contains static pages.
Testing Server
if the site contains dynamic pages.Note: This option assumes you defined a Testing Server in the Site Definition dialog box (XREF). If you have not defined a Testing Server and entered a URL prefix for that server, or if you are running the report for more than one site, this option is not available.
Other Location
if you want to enter a path in the text box.
Click OK to save your settings.Dreamweaver highlights the files that were modified within the selected time frame in the Files panel.
I have set up a testing server for the site (I'm running Apache on my local Mac), and it works. Yet I do not see any option in the dialog box to indicate that I can view the files in a different location. But it's a moot point since I can't view them in any location due to the javascript error.
Adobe, please advise.

Dreamweaver CS4 - Record Insertion Form js error

Hi
I'm dreamweaver cs4 and started using the Record Insertion form, I was mainly experimenting with it and just seeing what it could do.
However when I get to the wizard i have to wait a few seconds for it to connect to the database and then I get an error message that says:
While executing onLoad in ServerObject-InsRecPHP.htm, the following Javascript error(s) occured:
At line 283 of the file "Macintosh HD:Application:Adobe Dreamweaver
CS4:Configuration:Commands:ServerObject-FormCmnPHP.js":
invalid array length
I was just wondering if this was a common problem, or I've messed something up either in Dreamweaver, or in the SQL database that I'm using.
I've also noticed that its the same for Update and Delete Records Wizards aswell.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

I see it's your first post. Welcome to the forum.
A good place to start looking for answers is the Dreamweaver FAQ. You'll find the answer to your question under "Crashes, installation, JavaScript, and unexplained problems".

Dreamweaver CS4 Errors, Spry widget not working. Please Help!

I am redesigning a website and downloaded an html file from the present contact page. I opened it in Dreamweaver and I started to have this errors. The html file I opened has some JavaScripts in it and I believe, the the scripts got a conflict with Dreamweaver CS4. I already deleted these files I tried to open and still I'm encountering these errors.
These are the errors I'm getting:
1. When I open the Dreamweaver, this message pop-ups:
   "While executing onLoad in RecordsetFind.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occured:
    In file "RecordsetFind"
    findRs is not defined."
2. I click OK. Then I'm getting this message:
   "While executing onLoad in Design Notes_onOpen.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occured:
    In file "Design Notes_onOpen"
    onOpen is not defined."
3. I just click OK. Then, when I open an html file to edit or create a new one, this error pops up again:
   "While executing onLoad in Design Notes_onOpen.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occured:
    In file "Design Notes_onOpen"
    onOpen is not defined."
4. I will again just click OK, then this error appears:
   "The following translators were not loaded due to errors:
    Coldfusion.htm: has configuration information that is invalid.
    SpryWidget.htm: has configuration information that is invalid."
5. Then, I will just click OK again. Then, when I'm working with the projects or creating a new project with Spry, it is not working properly anymore. I have to go the code and update the Spry list or content manually.
6. When I close Dreamweaver, I'm always having this error:
   "While executing onLoad in TeamAdminTempDelete.html, the following JavaScript error(s) occured:
    In file "TeamAdminTempDelete"
    delTempFile is not defined"
I tried uninstalling the Dreamweaver and installing it again, but it did not work.
What should I do to make the spry working again and to remove all these annoying errors? By the way, all my Spry widgets are not working and these errors I'm encountering in all of the Sites I'm working on. How can I make it work again? I tried looking for troubleshoot in CS4, but I could not see one, only in CS3.
Please help.

Errors in Dreamweaver CS4 need help

Just yesterday I started getting the following error when trying to open Recordsets:
While executing onLoad in ServerBeh-ASPVbs-SimpRS.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occured:
At line 271 of file "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS4\Configuration\Commands\ServerBeh-ASPVbs-SimpRS.js: type has no properties
What I have done so far:
1. renamed Configuration folder
2. Drilled down and found the .js file in DW3 and copied it in
3. Reinstalled DW
If anyone could shed some light on why all of a sudden this is happening I would greatly appreciate it.

I sounds like your Recordset code may be corrupted. Try deleting the Recordset and recreating it.

Editingutils.js error message dreamweaver cs4

I keep getting this the attached error message using Dreamweaver CS4, spry framework utilizing a number of spry widgets.
CollapsiblePanels
Spry Forms Widgets
I have made changes to the span id names associated with each of the form widgets.
I've reviewed this link http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/401/kb401257.html
However the files described do not contain the following lines and changes
Edit SpryTabbedPanelsDesignTime.js and make the following changes:
THIS DOES NOT EXIST IN THE FILE IN CS4
Go to line 188. Change:
eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]);
to:
try { eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]); } catch(e) { opts = null; }
Save the file.
Edit SpryCollapsiblePanelDesignTime.js and make the following changes:
THIS DOES NOT EXIST IN THE FILE IN CS4
Go to line 188. Change:
eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]);
to:
try { eval("opts = " + args[ 1 ]); } catch(e) { opts = null; }
Save the file.
Launch Dreamweaver and verify that you can now load your file.
Any other solutions?

I have resolved the editingutils.js by breaking up the forms, but it is not the solution I'm really looking for.
Each of the 6 forms on seperate pages are 450 lines of code.
Form sample.
http://irexs.com/betatest001/can/listCANCommercial.cfmhttp://www.irexs.com/betatest001/
I want to be able to have multiple forms on one page, nested in spry collapsible panels.
I'm using DW CS4 and Coldfusion 8 server, forms utilize SPRY form fields (not cfforms).
In order to reslove the editingutils.js I had to break up the forms, but have considered an alternate solution.
In each panel the forms are nested via cfinculdes; structure as follows.
<div col panel>
     <div col panel content>
          <form spry fields>
               <cfincludes location form file>
               <cfincludes details form file>
          <form end>
     <dev col panel content ent>
<div col panel end>
WHAT I WANT TO ACCOMPLISH is as follows.
Sample page
http://irexs.com/betatest001/can/listCAN.cfm
Forms are to be inserted in the panel content section as described above.
ISSUES ARE:
I have limited JavaScript knowledge.
For the forms to work i require the the panels in closed state at page load: This is done.
ON FORM SUBMIT, I need the panel to stay OPEN, when client side or server side submit requires correction to the form.
What happens now is the page refreshes and the panel closes: the default state.
SOLUTION DESIRED, is to have the selected panel to stay open and the input information to remain when form is submitted.
Thanks for any help.

Cs6 dreamweaver - javascript error with Clean up Word HTML . . .

Very recently upgraded to CS6 from CS5.5. Every now and then, I have to run the Clean up Word HTML Commands function for a client. Never had a problem before. This time, I got this message:
While executing onClick in Clean Up Word HTML.htm, the following JavaScript error(s) occurred:
At line 2012 of the "Macintosh HD:Applications:Adobe Dreamweaver CS6:Configuration:commans:Clean Up Word HTML.js"
The object is not currently contained in a document.
I searched through the Discussions and found refernce to deleting MacFileCache-###.dat file in the Library Configuration folder for Dreamweaver CS 6. Did that, same thing. It also mentioned deleted the entire Configuration folder. Same result.
I called tech support and was directed to go through the (count 'em) 14 steps on the Troubleshoot JavaScript page -- http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/troubleshoot-javascript-errors-dreamweaver-cs4.html. Still no luck.
Anyone else out there having this problem? What am I missing? Help!
Thanks, Tim

Hi SnakEyes02,
That could be. Let me know when you have grabbed these. They were Word docs that I saved the same way I always have done (Save As, Format: Web Page (.htm)), creating .htm files that work in CS5.5 Dreamweaver and earlier versions.

Dreamweaver CC wont work Javascript Errors

This just started withing the last few days. It might be due to a restore I did on my Mac from a time capsule. It's the only thing I can think of.
"Unable to open script file" Macintosh HD:Applications:Adobe Dreamweaver CC:Configuration:Shared:MM:Scripts:CMN:..." and a number of .js files within this folder like string.js, TemplateUtils.js and others because they are missing. the folder is empty...
I can't use the program because these notices pop up non-stop.
I looked at this help article "http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/kb/troubleshoot-javascript-errors-dreamweaver-cs4.html# main_special_char" but it doesn't seem to apply to CC, at least the locations seem to be different.
How can I get these files?
Thanks

It applies to CC, the locations are the same you have to turn on hidden files to see the folder you need to access.
#4 from that list usually takes care of Javascript errors when opening the program.
Here's a better page for that info: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/494811
Turning on hidden files is a bit trickier on a Mac I guess, but one of these should work for you...

warning two:
