Editable Attributes?

Hi there,
I am having some difficulty using dreamweaver's editable attributes for my template-based pages. I've followed dreamweaver's help instructions but I keep getting error messages and I don't want to screw up my layout.
I simply want the locked region of my side nav to custom size along with the vertically growing editable region of the body area of my page. I have about 30 pages based off of this template. Are editable attributes the best way to go about this?
Any suggestions? Thanks!

As Nancy mentioned, without seeing the code, or at least a preview of the page, hard to tell - please post a link for more help....
It sounds as though you have a sidenav region that has either a background image or color that you would like to expand vertically down the page as the content area expands? How is your page built?
If, for instance the side nav is placed in a table with a fixed height, and the content is in a separate table, try building a single table with two columns (or more columns depending on your needs) - then set the left column to the width and color attributes you have now, and it will expand in height along with the varying content of the right column.
As for the template, you can still lock the left cell within the template, and make the right cell your editable section just as you have now even thought it is part of one complete table. This will also work with css divs - depending upon how your pages are constructed... (in fact css is the preferred method, I used tables just as one example...)
Hope that is of some help - please post a link if this confuses more than helps...

Problem with Nested Templates, and Editable Attributes

Hi all, I've run into the following problem. I have a
template called A. I created a nested template B from A. I made an
attribute editable to B, in A. The problem I am having is that I
would like that attribute still editable in a page derived from the
template B. As it is right now, the attribute is frozen, and can
only be editted by children of template A.
Is there a solution to my problem out there?

> Is there a solution to my problem out there?
Yes - but not one you will like. Don't use nested templates.
Why are you?
But you can investigate the use of the passthrough attribute
for editable
attributes....

CS4 Template Editing Attribute Problem

I've got a site with templates and nested templates. I was able to figure out how to make an attribute editable for the photo on the page. But I would also like to change the color of the navigation text for that particular page. (basically to show via color that the user is on that page)
so I've got a class which is just for the color, named bluecolor. I highlight the text on the template, choose class to make editable. I create the page and when i modify the editable attribute to bluecolor, nothing changes.
I'm suspecting it is because the css styles for the nav text is controlled by a # style as opposed to a .style class. I've also added a:link, a:visited, a:hover, and a:active to these text navs too.
I remember reading somewhere that a #style will always override a .style.
So how can I make the nav text for that particular page a different color? Please help...
to be more clear, I have these for the css styles
.twoColFixLtHdr #sidebar1 {
    float: left; /* since this element is floated, a width must be given */
    width: 202px; /* the background color will be displayed for the length of the content in the column, but no further */
    padding: 0px;
    margin: 0px;
.twoColFixLtHdr #container #sidebar1 p {
    font-family: "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
    font-weight:bold;
    font-size: medium;
    color: #374D86;
    padding-left: 20px;
    margin: 8px 0px 0px;
.twoColFixLtHdr #container #sidebar1 p a:link {
    color: #80763B;
    text-decoration: none;
.twoColFixLtHdr #container #sidebar1 p a:visited {
    color: #80763B;
.twoColFixLtHdr #container #sidebar1 p a:hover {
    color: #374D86;
.twoColFixLtHdr #container #sidebar1 p a:active {
    color: #80763B;
But on each individual page, I want to have the text (with the link for that page) a:link, a:visited, a:hove, and a:active be a different color. I tried doing a straight class style but it won't overwrite the styles above.
thanks,

Well, #style will not necessarily override .style. I've never heard that.
What you really want to be looking at is descendant selectors.
If you give the <body> tag for each page editable attributes, you can name each page differently, for instance body#homepage, body#contactpage, body#purplepage, and so forth.
Say you have a particular element that you want to be different on each of those pages. let's call it <div id="area51">.
Here's some CSS you could apply:
#area51 {
width: 150px;
background-color: white;
border: solid 1px red;
So on every page, that is what you would get for your div#area51.
Unless you also did this:
#homepage #area51 {
background-color: yellow;
#contactpage #area51 {
border-color: green;
#purplepage #area51 {
background-color: lavendar;
border-style: dashed;
Notice that I have only changed the properties that I wanted to be different from the original style for #area51.
In a more specific way, you can use this in conjunction with your menubar styles, especially handy if you are using templates.
Make sure every menu list item, at least at the top level, has a unique ID (li#home, li#contact, li#purple, to use earlier examples) Those should be in the Template, so that they are controlling throughout the site.
Although you can use any color indication you want, I prefer to use the same coloration that occurs when a menu item is hovered over.
So find that selector in the stylesheet, and add descendant selectors for those menu items, to wit:
body#contactpage li#contact a:hover, body#homepage li#home a:hover, body#purplepage li#purple a:hover {background-color: yellow; color: red;}
This is an extreme color choice, but to read it in English:
"On the page whose <body> tag has an id of contactpage, for the <li> whose id is contact, when the anchor is hovered over, make the background-color of the a yellow, and the text-color red"
That focuses specifically on contact on the contactpage, so highlighting it when that page is open.
Let me know if you need more clarification.
Here's a site where the departments are highlighted in this way: http://www.gravenimagedesign.net/PHA/

DWCS3 Template Editable Regions and Editable Attributes?

Using DWCS3 / WIN XP
New to DWCS3 and templates AND CSS but I'm managing I
think....
QUESTION:
is there a way to allow the end user to edit the content of
an editable region and also the attributes of the cell in which the
editable region resides?
SITUATION:
I'm building templates for pages (styled with external CSS)
that will be editable by the end user via Contribute. I've put
editable and repeating regions (imgs and navigation menus) in
particular tds and would like the end user to be able to change the
color of the background of the cells in which the editable regions
reside.....
Of course I get "cannot place an editable region inside an
editable region" .......understandable...i've read more than a few
help/tutorial docs......
So I thought that I should click the tag selector for that td
and Make Attribute Editable.....
That's not working either....I know I'm missing something
because I haven't used DW in years and I'm just not getting some
big picture logic......
EXAMPLE: In the .html page attached for viewing, the upper
left image SRC is in an editable region. I would like the
background color of the cell it is in to be editable as well. Same
goes for the background color of the left navigation menu which
resides in a nested table by the way...........but i still want the
color to be editable.....
Thanks so much for any help you can give....

Editable ALV Dump: at setting non editable attribute

I have a problem with the ALV.
I have 2 fields in the ALV: a editable Key field and a non editable dependent text field.
I have binded a free programmed F4-Help at the key field.
In the F4Component I set the Key-field AND the text-field via :
    lr_f4_context_element               TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element.
    lr_f4_context_element = wd_comp_controller->listener->f4_context_element.
... set_static attribute.
The values are visible in the two alv columns.
But If I change the key after this manually I want to change the text field too.
I change at on eventhandler ON_DATA_CHECK trough set_static_attribute.
But I get later a dump for not assigned fieldsymbol:
Der Abbruch trat im ABAP-Programm "CL_SALV_WD_DATA_TABLE========
zwar in
"SET_TABLE_CELL_REF". Das Hauptprogramm war "SAPMHTTP ".
Im Quelltext befindet sich die Abbruchstelle in Zeile 8
des (Include-)Programms "CL_SALV_WD_DATA_TABLE=========CM00J".
1 method set_table_cell_ref.
2
3   field-symbols:
4     <l_value> type any.
5
6   assign r_value->* to <l_value>.
7
>>>   me->set_table_cell(
9     index     = index
10     attribute = attribute
11     value     = <l_value> ).
12
13 endmethod.
How I can avoid the dump, but change the not editable text field, when the key field is changed?

I could solve the problem with the context-mapping between the F4-component and the main-component.
The Approach to set data from the F4-Component to the main component directly was wrong!

Disable editing Attributes in My Profile

Hie,
does anybody know how to disable the possibility for the end user to change LDAP attributes if the Self Management is turned on?
I enabled "Self Management" in "My Profile" so the User can change everything the ume is allowed to.
I just want the enduser to change its email, but no other attributes. An administrator in the ume should be able to change everything.
Thanks
Thies

Most people don't allow LDAP write access from the portal. Instead they make use of the underlying LDAP user interfaces or write their own.

Editing attributes

I am pulling, Voltage, Current, and Time data
from a keithley 2400. I want to set the time data as the time attribute
for the Voltage and Current data. The data is read from the insturment
buffer as a 1D array. I then use a decimate array to seperate the data
and a build array to combine the current and voltage data into a 2D
array. Then I output that array to convert to varient data and then to
set attribute. I use the time data array as the attribute value. When
converting back to labview data I loose that time attribute. I preform
a number of operations on the data using express VI's, ie FFT, and need
the proper time data not the default interger step. Also it would be
nice to adjust the names of the data so that they appear in the header.
Any help would be great thanks.
Ed
PS sorry no net allowed in lab so I cant post the VI

You don't need a variant but a waveform!
In a waveform you can store attributes like timestamps (make sure every point get's it's own timestamp or use dt and t0).
If you set the 'NI_Name' property your data will have a name.

CS5.1 Menu - editing individual char attributes

I just realized that I cannot edit attributes of individual characters in menu text box.
If I highlight a portion of text in a box, then as soon as I click on Character panel the highlight disappears and entire box is selected (handles appear).
I can accomplish the task with "edit Menu in Photoshop", but I used to be able to do this within Encore CS3.
As a test, I installed Encore CS5.1 on 32bit XP partition containing CS3, and it behaved the same way (unable to edit attributes of individual chars).
I have not been able to find any info on this on the net. Am I missing something?
Thank you for any insight on this.
Production Premium CS5.5
on Win7 SP1 64bit

Thank you for the follow-up.
I select the text box with the Direct Selection Tool, ...... Now select the letter/word(s) you want to edit.
Yes, I get that far, and next you do is to click on one of the attributes on Character panel to change the appearance of selected text. As soon as I do that entire box gets selected, and attribute you select, say bold, is applied to the entire text, not the selected. This happens even if I hold my breath tight.
I zapped the Encore preference files, again with the same result.
I really don't remember if this was the case from the beginning (I installed CS5.5 in November last year) or it started doing this sometime after installation...

DBSequence type no longer available for entity attributes?

I'm puzzled by this, if not scared.
Every version of JDev till 11.1.1.2.0 has had out-of-the-box support for DBSequence as an entity attribute type.
When you set it for your PK, JDev disables a few options, automatically sets "refresh after insert" (and maybe other stuff) and handles everything about it.
Now, I see that in new applications created with 11.1.1.2.0 that option is no longer present...!
It's available only for apps migrated from previous versions.
If you create a new application, you no longer have DBSequence in the Type dropdown.
Here's what the documentation (Oct 2009 DevGuide, par 4.10.10) says:
In the Edit Attribute dialog, you can set the value of the Type field to the built-in data
type named DBSequence and the primary key will be assigned automatically by the
database sequence. Setting this data type automatically selects the refresh after Insert
checkbox.Where on Earth is this built-in data type named DBSequence in Jdev 11.1.1.2.0?

Thanks Paul.
It seems JDev broke my application.
It only shows the native Java types in the dropdown, and does not show any of the Oracle types including Number, DBSequence and all the rest.
(Note that all the connections I work with use the Oracle type map, of course - it's automatic.)
I tried a new quick test with a new application and again, no Oracle types, just the java types.
Then closed and reopened my applications as well as JDev and I can now see all the types in my quick test.
However, my original application still "sees" no Oracle types, it's stuck with the Java types.
I'll try to see if I can repair it in some way... I'll eventually put it down as one of the gazillion one-time bugs that JDev shows daily.

Get a resource attribute value in a form

Hi,
I have a resource assigned to a user . before he logs in I should query the resource that is assigned to him and get the value of a attribute .
How can I get the value of the attribute that is there in the resource in the form.
Should I check out the view to userview and ref something like userview.accounts[xxxx].attribute1
or
does it work like accounts.attribute1
thank you

If it is for display purpose, use getView and view.accounts[resource name].attribute. use checkout if u have to edit attribute.

How do I create an editable style in a template

A site I am currently coding will need a DWT template for use
with Contribute to prevent the site owner from editing things
he/she shouldn't. All of the pages will essentially use a single
template,
except I need to change a single style on every page. I need
just the contents of a single class="" to be editable. Does anyone
know a clever way to do this? You can't set an editable region
within the quotes - I've already tried that.

1. You can make the tag bearing the class assignment have an
editable class
attribute (read DW's F1 Help about editable attributes), or
2. You could make the tag and its minimal legal context be in
an editable
region, or
3. You could make the page have a small embedded stylesheet
in the editable
region that is in the head of every template child page that
would let you
specify the different styles for a given class rule.

Error : Rowkey does not have any primary key attributes

Hello All,
I'm developing an ADF application which has a few ADF forms. The forms have VO's and some tables.
On running, I seem to be getting this error
<Error> <oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.model.binding.CurrencyRowKeySet> <BEA-000000> <ADFv: Rowkey does not have any primary key attributes. Rowkey: oracle.jbo.Key[], table: oracle.jbo.server.ViewObjectImpl@2ecf4f19.>
Where does the Rowkey have to be set? Is it in the VO?
Regards,
PP

Make sure that the VO's you use have at least one attribute selected as a key attribute. GO to View Object overview editor and select attributes tab, see whether there is at least one attribute marked as a key. If not select the most appropriate attribute from the list of fields and go to edit attribute dialog, tick the key attribute property.
