Dreamweaver website moves in firefox

Hi
I am currently studying IT at college and I am designing a website on dreamweaver but I have created it and it works fine in Internet Explorer but when I open it in Firefox some of the div tags move over to the side. I have used wrapper to keep them from moving about on IE but it doesn't seem to work on Firefox.
Can anyone help me out please, I haven't done a website before so I don't know that much about everything.
Thanks in advance

You kinda wandered into the wrong area. The dreamweaver peeps might be able to help you out better.

My Dreamweaver website movies won't play in Safari

I have made my own very simple website in Dreamweaver. I have a showreel page where files that I made in imovie I then export or 'share' and then place in Dreamweaver as 'Shockwave media' - embedded in the page. When you visit the page a quicktime icon appears briefly and then a player window appears and the movies play automatically with the scroll bar and pause button in view.
This site is as smooth as silk in Firefox 1.5.0.8, Internet Explorer 5.2.3, Netscape Navigator 7.2 and Opera 6.0.3.
My friends using Safari are also not able to view the movies- what we see online is just a static Macromedia Shockwave icon.
My one breakthrough is that if I put the full path to these .mov files in the file name box in Dreamweaver (ie HD/folder/next folder/filename and extension) (rather than folder/filename and extension) you can view the movie by clicking on the Shockwave icon and another window will open and show just the movie with none of page information. This however messes up the view in all of the other browsers too as they do the same. So it is as if Safari cannot find the file in my website folder, but all of the other browsers have no problem.
Any suggestions?

Hi,
Any chance you can post a link to the website so people can see the code? I'm no expert by any means but many people browsing here are and may be able to see what the issue is.

Gap under flash movie in Firefox

Hi all,
A site im developing shows a gap under the flash movie in firefox.
http://www.britanniamotors.net/
I dont get the problem using the other method of embedding that i used on
http://www.britanniamotors.net/aboutus.html
the problem with using this method across the site is that i am using flexipanels on these pages and they wont display the flash movie when the flexipanels are on the same page
http://www.britanniamotors.net/pxtoclear.html
So i guess the answer may be in how the flash is embedded in dreamweaver but after much searching on the web i cant find any solution.
Any help will be gratefully received.

Check to be sure that you have the correct Flash plugin
installed. You obvioiusly have the correct activeX control
installed.

Dreamweaver website with flash slide showing showing graphics poorly

Hello,
I put this problem up in Dreamweaver and Flash and got some questions from couple people but no answer yet. Adobe tech support is only available mon though fri so thhey are not available, so I thought I would try here.
I have a flash slide show I built for a dreamweaver website that contains vecctor images that are losing quality when I run my domain site. I have tested the flash file in flash looks great. I have previewed in live view in dreamweaver graphics look smooth but when I load up my files to ftp to my host account and test from there the quality of the edges of the vectors is not smooth. I see lots of jagged edges and not sure why.
I test everything on my 24 inch monitor so the graphics are probably enlarged but even when I test the flash file in flash and the html file of my hard drive to a browser like firefox my graphics are smooth, so not sure if its resolution problem. also tested my website on my laptop which is a smaller screen 15 inch and the graphics look bad on the website from there too. Soi f it were a resolution problem I think the 15 inch screen would be showing the graphics smoothly not jagged. ?????
Does anyone have any ideas or could assist me with this problem? I

http://johannabresnahan.com
please keep in mind when tested in flash, dreamweaver (live view and firefox browser from my hardrive html files the graphics all appear smooth and good quality. its when I transferred them by ftp to host server files and preview there and enter in my website url that the quality of the graphics and text in the graphics is jagged in many areas.
I spoke with the domain tech support too but did not get the answer but some thoughful input.

The key answer to this problem was to import the files in the original native form ai not jpeg for the
vector illustrations which kept the quality of the text that was converted
with create outlines tool in illustrator to make each character its own independent graphic
to be independently scalable to maintain its quality. Since most of the problems I was having were related to the text inside each artwork was rendered poorly in the finished slideshow on my live website url. The digital photography images were never a problem. The commentary and feedback in the dreamweaver forum helped me to figure out how to resolve the issues I was having.
I just thought I would post here in case anyone was wondering.

Embedded movies, Safari/Firefox freezes, then all hangs

Note: This post was moved from 'It's not just Safari, It's Firefox too... Crashing Tiger'
I have the same problem -- although it is linked directly to embedded quicktime movies. Almost every time I go to a page with an embedded movie, Safari / Firefox freezes, taking the rest of the os along with it (finder, other open apps) Unplugging the ethernet doesn't help. Checked the Safari crash log and it doesnt seem to be recording these crashes.

Sounds like lookupd is hanging and taking the OS with it...
If this is happening when surfing to sites with links to "js.adsonar.com", like FoxNews.com and others, here's a fix:

How do I move individual Firefox bookmarks from one computer to another?

I want to move individual Firefox bookmarks from one computer to another on the network.
I do NOT want to overwrite any of the bookmarks on the second computer, just add extra bookmarks. What is the easiest way to do this?

Unable to browse the hypertext in the upper part of a website by using Firefox

I can't browse the hypertext in the upper part of a website by using Firefox. For example, in the website of Firefox, the cursor fails to change from 'arrow' to 'hand' when I point to 'Sign Out' or 'Inbox'. But it's ok for the remaining part of the website (i.e. not upper part).
However, if I use Internet Explorer, I havn't encountered the same problem. Please help advise.

That problem is caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.

Found the reason why my Dreamweaver's "Preview in Firefox" wasn't working

In some of the Dreamweaver forums, there were some users whose "Preview in [Browser]" suddenly wasn't working. I had that same issue, but I did some experimenting, and I found out why—at least in my case—why a particular html file, when opened in my Mac's Dreamweaver CS6, Version 12.0, wouldn't preview in my Firefox browser. I noticed that the filename contained a question mark. When I deleted that question mark from the filename and then opened that html file back into Dreamweaver, the "Preview in Firefox" worked fine. For a test, I closed the file, typed a question mark back into the filename, opened the file into Dreamweaver, and then that "Preview in Firefox," once again, didn't work. There may be additional characters in filenames—other than the question mark—that could cause problems with Dreamweaver's preview feature.

Ken, why do you say no numbers at the beginning of file names? That's true of variable names but not file names.
Thanks Rob -
I'm 80 years old, so I've probably got some ancient "best" practices in mind.
While this isn't absolutely required, some programming languages give numbers special notice, and so a file starting with a number might not be treated as a file.

Printing from websites accessed through Firefox is unitelligible - just symbols, whereas fine with Safari.

For the last week or so, whenever I try to print from a website accessed by Firefox (either to pdf or printer) the resulting pages(s) are completely unitellibible -- they look like a kind of code. I have McAfee- SitAdvisor is disabeled and Firefox has full access through the Firewall. My Windows FIrewall is turned off.
When I use Safari for the same operations, everything prints fine.
Please advise.
Thanks

I also have this problem. I believe it is caused by being connected through a proxy which is adding a second compression to the data. (I think IF uses gzip compression already).
Added details:
* Opera also works.
* I can view the IF admin section on FF
* I can view the forum if I go through a web proxy.

How to block a particular website in mozilla firefox?

I just want to block a particular website from mozilla firefox browser. The steps given in the option are not working really. let me know in details the procedure to block a particular website.

The best way to do this is not by browser but by using parental controls. Blocking in a browser can always be bypassed (usually very easily). [[Block and unblock websites with parental controls]]

IWeb export to Dreamweaver - looks strange in Firefox

Hi,
I just exported an html file to Dreamweaver of a great design that I made in iWeb.
I want to keep the design and use more advanced options with dreamweaver that iWeb doesn't have.
A test with Adobe's browser lab made the design look a little screwy.
My question is: Are there any sort of guidelines for fixing the html code that iweb spits out to make it more compatible in dreamweaver and also in firefox and internet explorer?
Thanks in advance.

iWeb creates webpages that are W3 compliant and compatible with all modern browsers. Even MSIE.
If Dreamweaver can't handle the code, it's a DW problem.
Are there any sort of guidelines for fixing the html code.
You use Dreamweaver, so I assume you are skilled and know how to edit HTML.
If not : http://www.w3schools.com
BTW, you don't export to DW, you export to a folder. You open the html files in DW o any HTML editor of your choice.

4/30/2011. Can you please help me. I have an iBook G4 with Leopard OS 10.5. Yet how do I correct Website movies going flow-pause-flow-pause-flow etc? Chuck Y Chicago

4/30/2011. Can you please help me. I have an iBook G4 with Leopard OS 10.5 and latest Safari updates and maximum Ram (512 or 640 kb). Yet how do I correct Website movies going flow-pause-flow-pause-flow etc? The problem is with the iBook, not the website and movies. Thank you. Chuck Y Chicago

5/2/2011. Thank you all for your replies. My iBook is in the third group of the website you referred me to. I bought it July 5, 2004 at CDW near here. It had OS 10.3.6. 1GB (GHz. Power PC G4.), opaque white case. Its screen is 14.1 inches. Soon after I bought it I had its 128 RAM raised to 640 RAM, to work with maximum capability for converting VCR recorded videos/movie into digital files and burning these onto DVDs. Later I had an Airport card installed. As time passed I opened the apple icon (upper left hand corner of the screen), and Softwate Update, and eventually had this install OS 10.5.8. At first It could only be updated to OS 10.4. But then after several years I bought Leopard OS 10.5.8 from the Apple store near here. By then Leopard had been adapted to work on iBook G4. Its specifications are described with the same Apple icon and About this Mac.
It will play You Tube and similar websites OK. But videos/movies from websites such as hulu.com, ABC, CBS and so on, it displays a pattern of flow-pause-flow-pause-flow-pause-flow and so on.
I thought first to see if this forum would have any suggestions.
I think probably that its CPU has reached its limit; later Mac laptops have greater CPUs.
Many thanks to you all. C Yopst Chicago

Keep getting a pop up at the top of many websites I visit 'firefox security error content at *web address* may not load" I am using the most recent firefox and windows 7.

Keep getting a pop up at the top of many websites I visit 'firefox security error content at *web address* may not load" I am using the most recent firefox and windows 7. This is happening at many sites, such as hotmail, google reader, and many others.

Sorry, I don't think that is a message from inside Firefox, the wording doesn't sound correct - at least the beginning of that message. My "gut" thinks that is a MSN Live message to explain and compensate for their lack of security with a re-direct from a secure domain to an un-secure domain. ''(the end of that message)''
{Ctrl + Shft + J} will open the Firefox Error Console - I'm curious what Firefox has to say about that situation. If you find the error message for that domain, you can right-click the message to '''copy''' it and then paste that error message here.
Maybe '''TonyE''' or '''cor-el''' will be more familiar with the situation at Live and maybe at Google Reader, I don't use either of those services and have never seen a message like that myself.
