DW - set text of layer behaviour

I selected a small image, and applied the SetTextofLayer
behaviour, making sure the layer was the chosen layer. Then typed
<img src=/images/image1.jpg width="350" height="480"> as per
the instructions from the resources page. The error came up that
there already was an image. According to the instructions, you can
apply the SetTextofLayer behaviour to an image. What do I need to
do to have the larger image appear in the layer when you mouse over
the smaller image. It does work with the show/hide behaviour, but
was told doing it that way would make the page too big.
Thanks!

Share the Irish, because I'm seeing quite a few double posts
across the
forum... (trying to catch up).

Set text of layer...again

hi everybody
any ideas as to why when i use the set text of layer
behaviour i'm losing the hand cursor when you mouseover the link?
the behaviour works fine, but i'm getting the text cursor, so it
doesn't look like a link when you view the page, although it
works...i've tried changing the cursor option in the css, but that
still doesn't seem to make any difference...thanks in advance
sara

It would have nothing to do with the STOL behavior, but
rather what you are
pasting into it.
Any event handler directly on an <img> tag will fail to
produce the pointer.
You need to make sure that when applying behaviors directly
to <img> tags,
you always use the <A> onMouse event. Try that....

Set text of layer problem (escaping ' and " in javascript)

Hi all
I am using the Dreamweaver behaviour "set text of layer" and
I am having problems with escaping
single AND double quotes in the javascript.
Because the text I want to set the Layer with contains some
javascript.
So the text of my layer contains both single and double
quotes.
I can escape the single quotes like this:
But I can't escape the double quotes the same way for some
reason.
even if I use \" javascript thinks it's the end of the
javascript function.
So I have tried using " in the javascript of the
text to set, but strangely, although it works
in Safari, it does not work in FireFox and IE.
When I mouse over my javascript link set in the layer, the
browser status bar shows the right thing
in Safari, but in IE and FireFox, it shows extra double
quotes...
onClick="MM_setTextOfLayer('list','','<a
href="javascript:;"
onClick="MM_showHideLayers(\'options\',\'\',\'show\')">designers</a>')"
Anybody knows the answer to this one?

Set Text of Layer Question

A Very Easy Question.
I attempt to "set text of layer." I click on the plus sign on
the behaviors window, and set text to layer. A cute little box pops
up. In the Layer drop down box is a host of "unnamed
<span>"s. None of my divs are listed. In the body of this
page are Plenty of ID'd divs. I have named layers out the wazoo.
Why Are My Named Layers Not Listed In the Layer Drop Down
Box?

It would depend entirely on your level of HTML expertise.
One way to solve the problem would be to use an IFrame to
contain the
external content on the page, but a frame is a frame is a
frame. By that I
mean that IFrames usually provide all the user problems that
frames do.

Linking from one page to another is how static HTML pages
work. Having a
single page to display multiple content elements as loaded
from a database
requires that the page return to the server to fetch new
content from the
database on each click. Either method requires a page
refresh.
Linking to content that is placed within an IFrame doesn't
require this page
refresh, but carries other disadvantages as mentioned above.
Does that help at all?

Set Text of Layer Blowup?

Hi all,
Here is the page in question:
http://globalvisiondesigns.com/graphics.html
The box of cd's to the lower left is contained in two divs
with the set text of layer behavior. In FF and Safari in Mac it
works great. On the other hand, IE in Mac, it blows the bottom of
the page up, adding about 300-400 pixels of white space below the
footer. Usually when I notice something disastrous happening in IE
in Mac, it's worse in PC. Could someone please have a look at this
page in IE on a PC/Window XP etc. Perhaps I will get lucky this
time out, and it will be fine on that platform.
I have to admit, I copied the code and divs from a layout
that I did using tables. I don't think that is the problem though,
because this might have been happening in the tables layout as
well, just not as bad.
Thanks for any help!

Looks fine to me in IE/WXPPro, and FF 1.5.0.6.

Can links inside "set text of container" behaviours open in a new page?

I am using the set text of container behaviour to show different information within the same page, to keep things neat and simple to navigate. Some of the text needs to be external links, but they open in the current page, not a new page even though I have set the target to _blank.
Is there another way to keep using the set text of container and have the links open in another page?
thanks!

Setting Text of Layer Conflicts

Hello everyone. Thank you for taking the time to check this
out!-)
Attempting to accomplish:
In a single parent browser window, I have a layer containing
an image (that is viewable because it has already been initiated by
a "set text of layer" behavior), and a second layer containing a
text link that I would like to coordinate multiple behaviors.
Behavior 1: On Mouse over, set text of layer (PHOTOLAYER) to
JPEG2
Behavior 2: On Mouse Out, set text of layer (PHOTOLAYER) to
JPEG1
Behavior 3: On Click, Set text of layer to JPEG2
Behavior 4: On Click, Open new browser window containing new
html page (SECONDWINDOW.html)
Code:
<a href="slideShows/SECONDWINDOW.html" target="TARGET"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('slideShows/SECONDWINDOW.html','TARGET','width=886,height=750');M M_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src="assets/JPEG2.jpg"
width="944"
height="403">')"
onmouseover="MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src="assets/JPEG2.jpg"
width="944"
height="403">')"
onmouseout="MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src="assets/JPEG1.jpg"
width="944"
height="403">')">LINKNAME</a>
Further explanation:
When I test this, noted Behaviors 1, 2 and 4 work fine.
However, I'm not getting the JPEG2 on click.
Any ideas as to why this isn't working? Or, is there a
simpler way of coding this whole thing? Any help is appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

Change this -
MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src='assets/JPEG2.jpg' width='944'
height='403'>')"
to this -
MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src='assets/JPEG2.jpg'
width='944'
height='403'>')"
and this -
onmouseover="MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src='assets/JPEG2.jpg'
width='944' height='403'>')"
to this -
onmouseover="MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src=='assets/JPEG2.jpg='
width=='944='
height=='403='>')"
and this -
onmouseout="MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src='assets/JPEG1.jpg'
width='944' height='403'>')">LINKNAME</a>
to this -
onmouseout="MM_setTextOfLayer('PHOTOLAYER','','<img
src=='assets/JPEG1.jpg='
width=='944='
height=='403='>')">LINKNAME</a>
It's the improperly nested quotes that is killing you.

Set Text Of Layer

Below is the code I added to the behavior for a graphic image
to show in the layer. It works perfectly on my computer. But not
working after uploading page. It seems that the image is not
loading from my server? The image is in my httpdocs/images folder.
Could someone please show me what the correct url should look like
in the html below?
<img src=./images/lcdcover1.jpg width="260"
height="260">
link to page in question:
http://globalvisiondesigns.com/graphics.html
Thanks

you need 2 dots
../images
not
./images
and the URL needs to be enclosed in parentheses, which it is
not.

Behaviour: "Set Text of Text Filed"

I am attempting to apply the behaviour "Set Text of Text
Filed" to a radio button pair (the NO of Yes, NO) in order to fill
in a text field with "skip to question 4"
However, when attempting to apply, I get an error message "no
ID. Set ID in the Property Inspector. I also not that while the
form text fields all have names (eg., "name", "street", etc.) The
"Set Text of Text Filed" behaviour windows shows them as "input
<unidentified> why?
The radio button name in the property inspector is "radio"
and the checked value is "yesno". I see no other fields on the
property inspector to apply an ID. I have even encapsulated the
"NO" radio button in a "DIV" tage with a ID=NO. But it also does
not show up in the "Set Text of Text Filed" behaviour window. Still
shows them as "input <unidentified>. Why?
Can anyone advise what I am doing wrong?
The "set text of container" and the "set text of status bar"
behaviours work just fine.
CarverW

> why?
Because this behavior requires you to select elements with an
ID assigned,
not just a name (I am referring to the TARGET of the
behavior, not the
trigger).

"Set text of container" behavior crashes Dreamweaver! (CS3)

When I try to change pages which use the "Set text of
container" behavior it
crashes DW-CS3. The dialog which used to come up first shows
a series of
asterisks in the drop-down for the container selected, and
the CPU does
overtime for about a minute before the correct values appear.
If I change
any values and OK it, then CPU starts using over 90% on DW
and nothing
happens until I force a shut-down (I've left it running for
over 15 mins!)
I have tried setting up a new "Set text of container"
behavior and the same
thing happens.

Oh it truly needs work...
http://www.jackbooks.com/Wystan/Regional/Regionalism.htm
Even on a simple new page with a couple of divs this
behaviour is now very
slow and the line of asterisks comes up while waiting for the
dialog to
load. What has changed? How can a simple behaviour be now so
demanding?

Set text of container - javascript help, please!

I have used Dreamweaver behaviours to "Set text of container" and make different writing appear inside a box when I click a hotspot. Now I want people to be able to click on the writing that just appeared and make more text appear in another box. Could someone tell me how to do this? I don't think I can use Dreamweaver's behaviours for this because there's no material trigger... in that the writing that is the trigger only appears when the first trigger is clicked, but I'm more than happy to be corrected!!
So, I've been trawling through javascript libraries but I don't know what I'm doing, so if someone could either tell me how to do this in dreamweaver or really spell out what libraries etc. I need to download and what code I need to make a bit of text that's already a set text of a container into a trigger for a set text of another container, that would be great!
Sorry for the complicated question, it's difficult to explain what I mean.
All help very much appreciated ^^

Set text issue

I have made a picture rotator for my website, but when I
click on the image (which initiates the rotation to the next
picture) the javascript SHOULD change the text of the specified
layer, but instead of changing the HTML, it just posts the code on
the page. Below are the codes I am using (without the picture
locations, file names, ect.)
Layer11 is the layer which the info is posted. The initial
click works fine, the text is put into the layer as HTML, and the
pic shows. When I think click on the pic, the code for the next pic
is set to the layer. Where I went wrong, I dont know.
A little help?

No this a Flex layout text area. Now what it does once the page is build I dont know. I just dragged a text area control and gave it an id. Is my setStyle syntax look right?

Set Text of Container to HTML not working

I have a div tag named "theAnswer" on a page. When the user
clicks the "Submit" button, I want some text to appear inside the
div that has HTML formatting.
The HTML code for the text I want to appear is below:
You are correct! We are committed to conducting
business with
the highest degree of integrity, complying with legal
standards and

href="javascript:;"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('../docs/
Ethics_Standard_1.pdf','','scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=790,height=575')">More
Info</a> or click Continue.
After I put in the Behavior to "Set Text > Set Text of
Container to", choose the correct Div tag, and paste the above into
the "New HTML" field, when I click the Submit button, I get the
following appearing in the div "theAnswer" exactly how it appears
below as text without it being actual formatted HTML.

It's not formatted as HTML, it just comes out exactly what
the coding is. Why?!

Let's see the page, please.

Getting error while trying to set text for form value field in oaf

Hi ALL,
When i am trying to set text for a form value type field it is giving null pointer exception, please help me out.
I tried below way.
OAFormValueBean containlineid=(OAFormValueBean)webBean.findChildRecursive("item11");
            containlineid.setText(pageContext,"test");
Thanks

HI Keerthi,
I am able to set and get the value now, i am able to see the data in my log window, but in my page it is erroring out, giving null pointer exception.
after commenting the two lines setting and getting value page is running fine, so any clue on this, please check the below code.
