Editing web page in Dreamweaver 6.1

I use Dreamweaver 6.1 and have done for 5 years. Now,
whenever I edit an html page by keying text, or by copying, ie a
paragraph, to the page, the code view changes it all to one word
per line and in some instances spacing 5 to 10 lines between each
word so that I've had a page of 380 normal lines turn out to be
over 6000 lines. Once, I deleted all of the extraneous lines,
spacing, etc. so that a sentence read properly in sequence but then
the next time I opened the page, it was back to one line plus, per
word.
This started happening about a month ago. I downloaded and
installed the upgrade - didn't help. Anyone have any ideas?

  • Adding keywords to a web page with Dreamweaver 8

    Hi,
    Does anyone of you know how to add keywords to a web page
    with Dreamweaver 8? I want the link to the web page shows up when
    people google the keywords. I pulled out the instructions from
    ehow.com and followed the instructions by using the HTML Keywords
    function in the Insert menu. I tested it on Google website by
    entering the keywords but it did not work.
    Any clues would be helpful.
    Thanks,
    Shirley

    Let's put it this way - those sites I have that are highly
    ranked do not
    have any meta keywords on them. So - you do the math....

  • [Locked] Centering an oversized web page in dreamweaver

    for a web programming class
    an extra credit challenge is to fix all found issues with some example web pages in dreamweaver
    in the first example page the most obvious problem is that the page has oversized dimensions
    which are 1680 x 1050
    so the main issue that it creates is a problem with the horizontal centering
    I'm looking for a coding/ script solution in dreamweaver that will automatically center the page when uploaded to the web
    I've attempted several web tutorials and so forth but have yet to come across something that actually works for me
    I am aware that this could be due to incorrect placement within the script
    so I have decided to include the a basic version of the example script.
    I appreciate any solutions that can be given...
    Here is the sample script
    <html>
    <head>
    <title>MockWeb_Example</title>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

    Where in the above quote did I say to answer the question. I said point them in the right direction.
    Think back to the first time you ever went into a Forum or newsgroup. Back when you was a Greenhorn/newbie. (oh that's right you been on the net so long, you've never been a newbie.) Did you pick a group you thought was correct one. Did someone help you, or did you get your whatever chewed out. Did getting the help make you feel as though people try to help. The th chewing out make you feel  like slinking a wayand never returning for support from that software company's Forum/newsgroup.
    I ventured acidentally in the Office PC group on the msnews server years ago. and I received mostly geting my what-you may-call-it chewed out. But then I go almost as many suggestions as to what groups I should go to. I chalked up the chewed variety to the PC Macintosh war going on at the time. But appreciated the one that pointed be to right place.
    At that point, I decided that if someone gets lost I will try to find out where for them to go, and send them to correct area.

    Hmmm,
    I don't want to be the one to put you off.  I'm in over my head too but I really enjoy the pain of grappling with Dreamweaver.  It isn't really for the novice user and unlike any other app I know, it will be of greater benefit to those who have some knowledge of the underlying languages it deals with.  i.e. HTML, CSS and some others.  Strangely, I also hear from people that know the coding well, that they don't like/use/need Dreamweaver.
    If you only want one site, and don't really need to wrench your own unique identity from what you are doing, why not look at a free site from Wordpress.com?  I am sure you can use your own domain, and as you get proficient at it, you can expand what's there by paying for it.
    Just a thought

    Hi Nancy,

  • Sending edited web page via email

    I received via email a web page which someone asked me to change. I'm a painter not a web designer and I know just enough to be dangerous. I managed to get the page into Dreamweaver and edit it but now I don't know how to get it back to the person, presumably via email. Or maybe there's another way. I read in a forum that you can post it, but I'm not sure how to do that either. Thanks for any help someone can offer. Sarah.

  • Making an editable web page in iweb

    Hopefully someone can help me out here.
    What I am trying to do is make a web page with iweb that will basically be a
    page that anyone can edit (type) in. It would need to be password protected. but basically an editable journal type page. If that isn't possible, does anyone know how to make a simple hmtl page that would do the same effect that i could load into my .mac account? thank you for your time.

    does anyone know how to make a simple hmtl page that would do the same effect that i could load into my .mac account?
    I don't think what you want to do is possible on .Mac. Such things require php or other server side stuff which is not available there. But you can probably incorporate a forum hosted elsewhere into your .mac site. Search this forum for "forum".

  • Editing Web Page Source (3.6.1 Multiuser)

    I'm looking to do some more detailed formatting on some web pages used for topic overviews (such as nested bullet points), however the WYSIWYG editing options are rather limited. Is it possible to edit the source prior to publishing?
    Thanks.

    Further investigation reveals that the problem appears to have to do with the way the html file is encoded on disk. I am working on pinning down exactly what, in the encoding, is causing the problem. When I have that documented, as well as another possible "undocumented feature" I found, I will forward all info to you. This is the kind of problem I like as I am a developer with over 30 years experience including a stint as QA lead for a development group at AT&T which won the MBNQA for, among other things, re-engineering the platform used by the long distance operators. Stay tuned ...

  • Open web page in Dreamweaver

    Hello,
    How do you open the web page, http://vm.cfsan.fda.gov/~dms/csopa2pc.htmla, in Dreamweaver CS3?  Only Dreamweaver was able to handle the Chinese characters in this document.  The source code is useless as it messes up the characters, as did other web authoring software.
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Ellen

    1. Use your web browser to save the web page onto your computer.
    2. Right click on the web page file, and choose "Open with", then, choose "Adobe Dreamweaver"
    3. If it's chinese, change encoding to "utf-8", save the file and reopen it using Dreameaver.
    Hope you find this helpful.
