Dynamic Alt Description

Hi all,
Is it possible to pull the alt description for an image from
a database??
Any help appreciated.

this depends on how your "image" has been stored in the
database -- as long the stored infomation is actually the file path
to your image on the server, this image respectively it´s
related width/height/alt parameters are usually getting generated
"on the fly" and without having the possibility to change any of
those parameters after the event -- what does work in this case, is
adding the image´s description (if present in another related
field) like this: <span
title="dynamic_description_here">dynamic_image_here</span>.
But if you´re manually adding images to a certain
"WYSIWYG - field"
(usually a textarea having an advanced "editor" like
Tiny MCE attached) of
your CMS by means of e.g. a filebrowser, you should usually be able
to define the respective "alt" manually for each inserted
image.

Dynamic task description in sap inbox displaying carriage returns as an * ?

Hi All,
I have a method in my business object whereby I dynamically create the description of the task for the sap inbox, ie. the description the user sees for the task in their sap inbox .
At first I built this description into an internal table of type tline.   I would have thought that each row of the table would begin on a new line but this did not happen. The rows ran into each other but were seperated by a semi colon.
Then I included a carriage return (cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf) at the end of each row. This had the same output but instead of the semi colon, it output an asteriks.
Then I concatenated all the output into a string and passed this to a FM which splits the string at the carriage return and outputs the table. While this behaved as I wanted in a test program (i.e. new line for each row) , once I put the code in the business object, all the rows ran into each other again..
So is anyone aware of a way in which you can dynamcially build the task description and maintain the formatting you require?
I'd be very grateful if anyone could shed any light as I've been trying to get this going for a day and a half now and I'm about ready to give up!!
Many thanks,
Liz.

I had same requirement of displaying mutiple lines of workitem description. I used the following method for achieving my functionality.
Suppose multilineline text to displayed in the workitem description is:-
Line 1-> This is the the test text method to display description in the user defined format
Line 2-> which i want to show on my workitem to person approving the workitem.
Line 3-> Hello ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,how are u .............................................test test hello test.
1> I stored the data in an internal table which has one field of type c length 200.
2> I appened the data line by line into the table so that data is not overlapped and my format is maintained.
i.e Data : t_text   type table of ty_text,
               w_text type ty_text.
w_text-line = Line1.
appen w_text to t_text.
clear w_text.
w_text-line = Line2.
appen w_text to t_text.
clear w_text.
w_text-line = Line3.
appen w_text to t_text.
clear w_text.
3> The internal table T_TEXT will have three lines of data.
4> Now pass this table as it is on the workitem Description.It will display text as per ur format on the workitem description dynamically

How to hide the Alt description when you hover over your links?

I was told that you have to have a description for images, links just about everything. But when I preview my website and hover over the links, a yellow box appears with the description of the images. How do I hide this?

You are previewing with an old (very old?) version of IE, which is the only browser on earth that does what you describe. All other browsers play by the rules and leave the alt attribute values alone (which is what they should do).
You can choose to ignore this, or 'kill' it by adding a title attribute that is empty, e.g.,
<img alt="foo" title=""...
By the way, you add alt attributes to images for accessibility reasons. People who browse with images turned off (and there are some) or people who use screen assistive devices (screenreaders) need some indication that there is an image at the point where they are looking/reading. Consequently, you would only want to add content to these alt attributes where it's important to the message of the page (i.e., a cosmetic-only image would just have an empty alt attribute value). And you only need these for images, not for any other page element....

How to identify black and white images for dynamic collection ?

Hello
I would like to make a dynamic collection to quickly find my black & white pictures. It is very easy to do with your original files which have undergone a black and white (Grey) conversion under the developpement module : you have to specify "treatment - is - Grey level" in the dynamic collection description.
But what about original Grey levels images ? I have some scans of black and white negatives, and I would like to see them in the same collection.
I have tried to use EXIF metada, but none of them is related to this information (neither does IPTC). But such images are well detected as Grey levels images in the development module...
I don't know how to do (unless manually tagging images of course).
Does anybody have a clue for an automated solution ?
Thanks
Erwann

yes Eclipse 2.0 provides runtime chartting.
Please refer to this thread
[chartting|Re: Charts won't appear in CR Viewer?]
void AddChart(ReportClientDocument clientDoc, String chartTitle)
ChartDefinition chartDefinition = new ChartDefinition();
chartDefinition.setChartType(ChartType.group);
IDataDefinition dataDefinition = clientDoc.getDataDefController().getDataDefinition();
Fields conditionFields = new Fields();
IField field = dataDefinition.getGroups().getGroup(0).getConditionField();
conditionFields.addElement(field);
chartDefinition.setConditionFields(conditionFields);
Fields dataFields = new Fields();
for (int i = 0; i < dataDefinition.getSummaryFields().size(); i++)
IField summaryField = dataDefinition.getSummaryFields().getField(i);
dataFields.addElement(summaryField);
chartDefinition.setDataFields(dataFields);
ChartObject chartObject = new ChartObject();
chartObject.setChartDefinition(chartDefinition);
ChartStyleType chartStyleType = ChartStyleType.pie;
AreaSectionKind chartPlacement = AreaSectionKind.pageHeader;
chartObject.getChartStyle().setType(chartStyleType);
chartObject.setChartReportArea(chartPlacement);
chartObject.getChartStyle().getTextOptions().setTitle(chartTitle);
chartObject.setHeight(5000);
chartObject.setWidth(5000);
chartObject.setTop(1000);
IArea reportHeaderArea = reportDefController.getReportDefinition().getReportHeaderArea();
Section chartSection =(Section)reportHeaderArea.getSections().getSection(0);
clientDoc.getReportDefController().getReportObjectController().add(chartObject, chartSection, 1);
Further you can format the fields as per your requirement.
Hope this helps

Will search engines read the alt= text for a banner image within the h1 tag?

I read where the search engines focus on the text within the
header h1 tags. If I'm using a graphic that contains this important
introductory info (as apposed to text), and put the text in the
alt= section of the image, will the search engines us this text in
the alt section of the image?

Depends. I have a logo on my site with an alt description

Enabling alt-text pop ups

While I generally use Firefox, one of the features I find useful in Internet Explorer 8 is that "alt text" appears as a small popup on mouse-over. I've searched Firefox and Firefox Help to see if there was a feature that could be enabled for this, but have not found any references at all to alt-text. Can Firefox show "alt text"? If not, is there an add-on? If not, please submit this as a suggested feature to add in future releases.

title= was introduced later for images, and Firefox being the stickler for standards will show the title but not the alt="descriptive text"
The alt= is what shows if the image does not appear (no found, for instance),, it was/became a requirement because it supposedly would help blind people read the pictures -- that was dropped (there are better methods) and so was the requirement that alt= be always used. The two are not the same thing.
If you want to show Alt= in addition to titles there is an extension, it is messy and I believe one I tried placed a tooltip that couldn't be dismissed once you moused over it -- I'm sure it improved or others have done better. Anyone writing code now should certainly be using title.

Add Description on each port

Hi,
Though it might sounds stupid but I am wondering if there is anyway to dynamically add description of each port.
What I am trying to achieve is port 1 of Switch A is connected to Port 2 of Switch B.
I want to add description on port 1 of Switch A to provide the information of destination device like IP of the destination device or MAC address or name of the device (end device could be cisco switch or server).
I know how to hard quote the description of each port but the problem is down the raw if someone change the up link port on switch B from port 2 to port 3 than description on port 2 would be invalid.
So I am looking for a way to get the Switch B (destination device) information(IP/MAC/ hostname/ etc) and plug it into description of port 1 of Switch A.
I am hoping there must be a way of doing this.
I need your help and expertise.
Thanks in advance

Hi Arshad,
Just to see what can be done, I added the following text to my uplink port (port 10) on my SG300-10P ( ordering p/n SRW2008P-K9-NA)
"uplink to my UC520 [2001:1:1:1::300]"
As you may or may not see from the screen shot below, I am managing my SG300 switch via a IPv6 or a IPv4 IP address and added that information to the port description.
The text came up when I clicked on switch port 10.
Hope this helps,
regards Dave

Fade image javascript?

I've used the JavaScript below for many years as a way to do
a simple fading image effect on my sites. Now I've found that when
I use PVII PMM on the same page as this Javascript that the fly-out
menus in the navigation do not work.
Is there something I need to change in the code? And/or does
anyon have any suggestions (other than Flash) for doing a simple
effect of fading from one image to the next?

Download the Cycle plug-in script and save it to your local site folder. I prefer to keep scripts in my Scripts folder but that's up to you.
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/download.html
jQuery has 3 basic parts to it:
the core code library which you ref in your <head>
the plug-in script & css (if any) which you ref in your <head>
the function code inside <script> tags -- I prefer to put this above closing </body> tag.
<head>

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-latest.min.js">

Need Help on powershell Script to send mails in different languages

Hello, Just wanted to use the script below to remind users of password expiry date (I got it from internet New-Passwordreminder.ps1). We have companies in many countries, so the email should be in the language of that country. So since our users are in different

Hi petro_jemes,
Just a little claritification, you need to add the value to the variable "[string]$ou", and also change the language in the variable "$emailbody" in the function "Get-ADUserPasswordExpirationDate".
I hope this helps.

Newbie Layout Help Needed

I am normally an After Effects and Premiere Pro user but have been forced to volunteer for help on a Dreamweaver project.
The site is built on the template: HTML, 1 column fixed, centered, header and footer. I want to be able to insert a photo the width of the main column, 960 px I think. Then, under that photo, I want to insert 4 photos with different widths, between 150 and 200 pixels wide. I will need to update this from time to time and the quantity and sizes of the photos will be different each time. If "Draw AP Div" worked like I expected it to, it would be simple: draw boxes and insert images. However, as you know, it's not going to be that easy. I have read the formatting101 page and searched the forum but I guess I don't know enough to know what to search for.
Is there a way to place images in the way I want to? Do I need a plug-in? I need to where to start.

You don't need APDivs for this. If you want the secondary images to be evenly spaced on the page, use CSS floats & margins.
http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/3-CSS-boxes.shtml
If you don't need them evenly spaced, simply insert optimized images into your layout. Be sure to resize images beforehand in your graphics editor so that their combined widths will fit inside the layout.

change it and still comes up the same don;t understand what is wronge with it. new in codeing using dreamweaver c5
         Line 39,        Column 35:     document type does not allow element "div" here; assuming missing "object" start-tag
<div id="google_translate_element"><script type="text/javascript">

…"><a href="index.html"><img src="bs2.jpg" width="97" height="109" /></a>   </p>

1) It looks like you may have a <div> tag in your <head></head> section of the pages code which surrounds a <javascript> tag and its not allowed in there.
2) You have missed out the alt="" on the image:
img src="bs2.jpg" width="97" height="109" alt="Description here"/>
Change this:
<div id="google_translate_element"></div><script type="text/javascript">
function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({pageLanguage: 'en', autoDisplay: false}, 'google_translate_element');
</script>
To this:
<script type="text/javascript">
function googleTranslateElementInit() {
new google.translate.TranslateElement({pageLanguage: 'en', autoDisplay: false}, 'google_translate_element');
</script>

Tooltips Not Appearing in Firefox

I searched for answer to this problem, which I thought must be common, but didn't find anything.
I added a tooltip using Dreamweaver CS4 insert Spry tooltip option. The tooltip appears with Internet Explorer 8, but not Firefox 3.5.7. The tooltip isn't blank, there's no sign of it. I tried it on two different systems running Windows 7. I have another web page with Spry tabs that works just fine.
Thanks for any help,
Curt Rowe
P.S. Here's the code
<head>
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryTooltip.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link href="../SpryAssets/SpryTooltip.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
</head>
<body>
<span id="sprytrigger1"><img ...></span>
<div class="tooltipContent" id="sprytooltip1">The signature is from a marriage affadavit in the Cuyahoga County Marriage Book.</div>
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

I tried adding the title and it works fine. It's also a lot less overhead on page loads. It even looks better than the default tooltip. Does the title appear if the image display is turned off? If so I wouldn't need it and the alt description.
I'd still like to solve the problem in case I need to use it again. I moved the image up and it works. Totally strange. I tried movng the image down a few lines at a time. The tooltip appears to stay in the same place on the page. When the image is at it's original location, I think the tooltip is displaying so far up the page that it's not visible. I tried adding a vertical off set to bring it down, but it has no effect.
I also noticed that the tooltip works in Dreamweaver Live View without moving it.
I am not sure about the title appears if the image is turned off; but for XHTML compliancy the alt attribute is required.
If you want to know more on the title attribute have a look here and you will notice that this attribute is a very much overlooked one.This attribute because it can be used on most (X)HTML tags, makes the normal use of Spry tooltips redundant.
As far as finding a solution for the FF/Spry Tooltip problem, I think the style rules need to be tweeked. At the moment they are geared towards IE, leaving the likes of FF in the lurch.
Whatever, I do not need Spry tooltips.
