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???? -
What is it about this markup that breaks DW CS3 Design View Editing?
Folks:
I'm attaching very simple --and apparently completely valid-- markup that generates the text shown between the markers below:
------------start----------------
yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda yadda badda.
------------end----------------
As you can see by examining the file, it contains only an span enclosing text and spaces, and some following breaks. This file passes DW validation: no errors or warnings.
If I open this file in DW CS3 Design View, select and delete the last word, "badda", the entire text --every "yadda"-- is also deleted. All that text is really gone -- if I immediately save the file and re-open it, there is no text content at all, just the span pair, spaces, and the trailing breaks. This is completely repeatable.
When you edit this file, do you get the same result?
The attached file is a cut-down, simplified version of a production file that exhibits this issue. (That file also passes validation.) When I delete single words, entire content paragraphs disappear. So this is not just a point of curiosity. I need to figure out how to fix the production code and avoid this problem in the future.
What is it about the attached markup that causes this issue? I've fooled around with this code quite a bit and the best I can figure out is that DW is confused when both the start- and end- span tags are followed immediately by a line break. Inserting a space in either place makes the issue go away. But the production code doesn't have any occurances of this pattern. And, anyway, line-breaks have no significance to html, just for source-code formatting, right?
Am I missing something incredibly obvious?
TIA
hen3ryNancy O:
Thank you for your response, which gave me valuable clues to understanding the issues. (Specifically, it led me to re-read and understand better the nitty-gritty of the HTML4 specs, section 7, "The global structure of an HTML Document", especially 7.5.1 The BODY element.)
I believe you are saying --in sum-- that to be reliably edited in DW, each source file must comprise a syntactically correct and complete HTML Document.
I am attaching a second file, "badcode2.html", modified substantially as you suggest. It passes the DW validator, the validator.w3.org test, and the www.totalvalidator.com test. No errors or warnings.
I do this: Launch DW, open this file, choose Design View if necessary, select the final word of text, "badda", and activate Edit-->Cut (or Delete). As before, all the other text is deleted as well. This is repeatable.
It seems to me this sample code satisfies your general principle. Could I be misapplying the three validation tests? Or that passing these tests does not assure the document is syntactically correct and complete? Can you recommend other tests?
I'd like to add the following two points as a matter of background and a bit of niggling:
--I'm aware that complete HTML pages must contain <html> , <head>, and <body> tags, although the HTML4 specification seems to say <body> tags are optional. All my production pages, as served, contain these tags. My underlying design is a php template with individual content files incorporated by inclusion. There may be only one set of <html> , <head>, and <body> in a page. The "outer" template code provides these tags, and individual content files cannot contain a nested set -- so they must be "bare" markup. Is DW able to support this design, in which "bare markup" files are seemingly unavoidable? Is there a mechanism analogous to DW Design-Time Style Sheets to provide virtual existence of these tags so "bare markup" files can be successfully edited? I've looked for such a mechanism but not found one. Or some completely different method?
--You specify the inclusion of <p> or <h1> tags within the body. Is there some special significance of <p> or <h1> with respect to stable editing in DW? My reading of the HTML4 spec indicates that a single block element is the minimal requirement for body content. Either of these tags qualify, right? But so does <div>, and that's what I use in my current example. Am I misunderstanding something?
Bottom line, I'm looking for a pragmatic solution for my problem: Once in a while, among hundreds of structurally similar "bare markup" pages I edit in DW without any problem, I lose data. If inserting an additional tag into all my content include files eliminates these occasional problems, I'm willing to do that, as long as: (1) There is an arguable technical basis for the addition, (2) the added tag does not produce anything visible on the served page, and (3) the validators don't flag the extra tag.
Suggestions, please!
Thanks,
hen3ry -
Can't edit text in CS3 design view
Hi,
I have a big absolutely positioned DIV tag in most of my
pages, practically the whole page content is inside it.
In DW CS3 design view very often (maybe 50% of all times) if
I click inside it to edit the text, DW selects the entire DIV tag.
The cursor becomes like a cross with arrows, the DIV border becomes
outlined with a thick blue line, and I can't edit the text no
matter how much times I click. If I move the mouse with left button
pressed, this moves the DIV and changes the .css file where the
position is defined. DIV can't be de-selected with Escape, left or
right clicking.
The only way to get out of this is to click somewhere in the
code view, then go back to design view where hopefully text can be
edited. Sometimes I have to repeat this twice or even 3 times ,
it's extremely annoying and time consuming.
Is there any workaround?
Like to disable selection of containers in design view, or at
least a quick way to deselect the current selection?
This problem does not appear in DW8 when editing the same
files.

Nasty. Why?
Do you have an overflow style on this div?

CS3 - Design View not showing externally linked images
In CS3 Design View, externally linked images are not showing
up... i am only getting the place holder.
To prempt some questions:
1/ Links are correct and complete - apart from the fact that
they show up when previewing in the browser(s) - i have
crosschecked
2/ There are no spaces in the url
3/ In the 'View' menu, 'Display External Files' is checked
I had this problem before and escargo suggested saving and
rebooting. It worked then but strangely, today, that file is again
showing some of the externally linked images but not all. And on a
new file, created today, none of the externally linked images are
showing up... :(
I'm sure there's a simple solution to the problem... anyone
have any idea what it could be?
Thanks and cheers,
JJNope. Some show - some don't.

Font sizes render too small in DW CS3 design view?
I have recently upgraded to DW CS3 from DW8 (which is still
installed) on my Vista Ultimate system.
For some reason CS3 occasionally renders fonts smaller than
they 'should' appear. This can be replicated using the below code
(I realise this code is not 'best practice' by any measure but it
is the simplest way I could demonstrate the problem). In DW8 design
view it renders exactly as it outputs in IE5, 6, 7, and Firefox
(with default viewing settings) but in DW CS3 the font appears much
smaller! I realise this is probably a standards issue, with CS3
probably sticking to the standards more firmly than the browsers
and DW8 but I need the design view to render as the browser will or
it is no use to me
Please do not say that I should amend my code to be more
'Standards Compliant' as my main use of DW is coding a large
PHP/MySQL invoicing system which is used within a controlled LAN on
IE6 only. It was originally written by someone else and has been
added to and updated by myself. It is very large and certainly
doesn't need rewriting just to render correctly in DW CS3 design
view.
Any help greatly appreciatedThanks, Malcom
Here is a screen shot of DW CS2 andn how the fonts are

CS4 to CS3 Design View Preview
Is it possable to to preview Dreamweaver CS4 in CS3 Design View? I only have CS4 on my machine and a customer with CS3 wants to make changes to my work. The CSS styles do not render correctly. Is there anything I can do to to correct this? Everything works in the browsers.
Nope. Some show - some don't.

Design View - problems, but does it matter?
Another design view question - I've looked through other
posts but not seen anything that's similar.
(Firstly, can't give a URL as I'm sensibly(?) doing a site
redesign offline...)
I've got a page that consists of three columns - each floated
left, each with nested divs (the nested divs are fixed width).
In design view, everything was fine with this structure - as
was preview in browser, and the page validates with DWCS3's
checker. But adding content to the first of the columns (within a
nested div) made the next two columns drop below the first in
design view - although DWCS3 validation and previewing is still
fine.
Through judicious deleting etc., I've found that it was a
floated element in a nested div within the first column, that
caused the subsequent elements to drop below the first column.
So my main question is - should I be worried by the design
view problems, or is It just an inconvenience?
(And if there's any other obvious problems I'm inviting by
structuring the page this way, please feel free to (gently) point
it out...!).
Thanks, Matt.> So my main question is - should I be worried by the
design view problems
Yes. I'd say more, but I cannot see your page.

Design View Problems in Dreamweaver CS3
Hello folks,
I've been having design view issues in Dreamweaver CS3 on my
Windows XP 2002 SP2 computer. When placing library items in tables,
the library item will disappear from design view, and sometimes
columns or rows in disappear as well. The code remains unaffected
and the pages appear okay in all browsers, but not having preview
working correctly is definitely a disadvantage. Has anyone else
experienced this problem and, if so, do you know of any fixes?
Many thanks!
BrookeThis is nearly diagnostic for an improperly made Library
item.
Do your Library items contain <html>, <head>, or
<body> tags? Do they
contain CSS rules?
If not, can you show us a page that is doing this for you?

CS3 Design View blank when body in Editable area
Anyone run into this? It appears to be a bug, possibly new in
DW CS3 (9.0 build 3481)
When a <body> tag is put in an editable region, DW does
not recognize subsequent editable regions and Design View is blank.
When saving this template, an error appears "This template does not
have any editable regions..." However, Code Validation and Template
Syntax Check return no errors. Moving the body tag out of the
editable region corrects the problem. Here is a sample template:
<!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>Sample Template</title>
</head>
<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="body" -->
<body id="foo">
<!-- TemplateEndEditable -->
<h1>This is template text</h1>

I just upgraded to Dreamweaver CS3 from MX2004. I edit a web
page and all was OK with MX2004 but with CS3 the font size in
"Design View" is so small it is unreadable and uneditable.
Previewing or publishing the page in IE or FF and the font sizes
are normal.
I have seen others mentioning this problem on other
discussion boards but with no proper resolution.
How can I get "Design View" to display the proper size
without fudging the settings?This is a code/usage issue. Without seeing your code, we can
only guess
what you have on the page that is making this happen.
CS3 is 2 generations further along in its support of
standards and best
practice usages. As a result it is much more reliably in
rendering of CSS
layouts than DMX2004 was. Along with this increased
reliability and
standards compliance comes a much heavier emphasis on VALID
code. DMX2004
was a bit loose in what it would tolerate. In many cases, it
would ignore
things that CS3 cannot. To know where you stand with this,
try validating
your page. Does it validate?

Dreamweaver CS3 Design View messed up
I'm not quite sure why, but the design view is all messed up
when I am
editing my webpage.
Here is what it looks like.
http://img257.imageshack.us/img257/4749/sammesseduphl2.jpg
but as you can see by going here
http://sdsusammys.com/rush.php
that
the page works perfectly.
I was reading some of the other peoples posts and I noticed
people who
Include php files usually have this same problem.
The beginning of the code for my rush.php page is as follows
<?php
include("includes/header.html");
?>
<?php
include("includes/navbar.php");
?>
Would that have anything to do with it?
ThanksSammy,
As for "viewing" your web page inside Dreamweaver, it is not
a good idea. Dreamweaver is a basically a HTML editing application.
Ideally speaking, best if you view your web page with any web
brower. Also check with your web page with many browsers, where you
will notice some beheavior or such difference in those two or many
browsers. It depends on how you code your HTML code per se.
Hope that helps.
Cheers, Brian

Server Side Includes not displaying in DW CS3 design view
I have this code in my page (see below):
When I open the file in Dreamweaver MX 2004 in design view,
the page displays correctly. That is, I see the correct styles from
the style sheet contained in Head_Standard.html and the logo/menu
in Logo_TopMenu.html
When I open the page in DW CS3, I do not see the effects of
the style sheet and I do not see the logo/menu.
However, when I change the code for the first include from:
virtual="/ServerSide
to
virtual="
../../ServerSide
then the page renders correctly in Dreamweaver CS3.
My first reaction was: what?! And my question is: how do I
use a root reference inside the head and get it to display properly
in DW CS 3?"Go to Edit > Preferences > Invisible Elements >
Server-Side Includes (Check this box) to show contents of included
file"
I already do this.
For me:
/ServerSide... does NOT work
../../ServerSide... works
So, a relative reference works and a reference to the root
does not. I have over 20 websites with root references and I need
this to work in DW9. -
Paste Doesn't Work in DW CS3 Design View
What's up with this now?
This is a fresh installation of CS3 on a Mac Pro G5. Pasting
in text from Word or Excel won't work in Design View, but it does
in Code View.
I've been doing this for a while now on another machine,
using CS2.
What am I missing? Did I overlook something? I've checked in
the Preferences, but besides the usual choices for pasting, I don't
see why this won't work.
Ideally, I'm trying to improve my process of placing tabular
data from Excel. It's a pain to paste in information cell by cell.
Why can't I paste-in ANY text of any kind in Design View?
Thanks!http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=dd550772
