File organization within iWeb

I created a lovely site using iWeb, but it is not searchable because it doesn't seem to have meta tags. I need to recreate it in Dreamweaver, but I don't know where iWeb puts the files, in particular graphics and images. Can someone help with this?

iWeb stores all the objects in the domain.sites2 file in
~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/
It's a package. You open it with Right-Click > Show package content.
There are no HTML files inside.
The only HTML files are in the iDisk/Web/Sites/Sitename folder or in the folder you publish to from the filemenu.

How do jpg files in a iWeb domain file get corrupted? How can I stop it?

I opened up my Domain file to work on my site and several photos were replaced by a grey box with an X and a question mark in the middle. I close iWeb right click the domain file and "Show Contents". When I inspect those files i get this message.
*"Couldn’t open the file. It may be corrupt or a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize."*
I did nothing to the domain file other then move it's location. All the extensions are still jpg or jpeg. I try changing them to png or tiff and I try to open them with every other image editor I have and still same message "Corrupt" file.
Some of these are images from iPhoto and some are images from Finder. Some of the corrupt files are the thumbs others are not. Unfortunately I do not have a back up of this last large edit and additional pages and I have only published the previous edit to a local folder.
I had this problem in iWeb '08 and in '09 while using 10.4.9 and iWeb '08 on my G5 iMac and now in 10.5.8 on the Macbook.
What could I be doing wrong? Will moving the domain file from the desktop to a folder corrupt the jpgs?

How can I get out of this loop?
Try deleting iMovie's preference file. This can be found in your user folder Library>Preferences. The file is named "com.apple.iMovie8.plist". Close iMovie before trashing the file. When next opened iMovie will create a new file with the default settings. You may need to change some settings to suit your own preference.
It's best to delete files from within iMovie - not externally using the Finder. But, rather than delete them, why not store your Events on an external drive - you may need to use some clips in another project later. Project files are quite small as they contain only text references to the various items (assets) that comprise your project - therefore there is little point in deleting them. Also, check out the "Consolidate Media" function in iMovie, which lets you move/copy everything associated with a project (including Events, music etc) to another location.

Saving Docs/Media in seperate dir (instead of within iWeb) recommendations?

Hey ya'll,
Restructuring a bloated domain.sites2 package because so much content has been saved within it. What I did was a create a top level dir called downloads/ and transferred all large downloads in to it and then pointed the iWeb pages accordingly.
My questions are
1) What is ideal way to do it so that I get maximum search engine exposure?
2)If I'm publishing the files online do I need them to be named a certain way?
3)Do I want to put the all the
PDFs in downloads/pdf
MP3s in downloads/mp3
PPTs in downloads/ppt
etc...
Also I have a gallery that is full of high quality scanned diploma pics. I made a top level dir named /stone_diplomas
4) is that ideal or should I put that in downloads/subdir somewhere?
Thanks in advance

It seems like this technique (moving large files out of iWeb pages and in to a separate dir) mucks up getting parsed in to a sitemap XML file.
Anybody have experience that differs?

Creation of the organization within SIM

Hello!
How i can automatically сreate several organizations within SIMs Top?
I can create CSV file with organization parameters (or database table), but i don't know how it is possible to load this file to IDM.
May be there are some instructions how to realize it? Or some practices to perform this?
I am using IDM 8.0
Thanks for your advices!

It's difficult to convert CVS to XPRESS xml, because of encrypted parameters within the tags.
For example:
I try to create organization. The XML source of this object contains fields such as:
<ObjectGroup id='#ID#FA16-:EC602865C11:22B63D32-:5365FFED9DFE7765' name='5677EFD9DEFF5635:-23D36B22:11C568206CE:-61B0' displayName='entry_3' creator='Configurator' createDate='1221637646703' lastModifier='Configurator' lastModDate='1221646146984' lastMod='4' primaryObjectClass='ObjectGroup'>Do you know how parameters id and name generates ? May be there is a specification of this structure somewhere?

Unable to open CS3 Files from within the application

Good Afternoon
I work as IT Support for company looking after 10 ADOBE Creative Suite 3 end-users.
One of my colleagues is unable to open Illustrator or Photoshop files from within their respective applications, but she is able to open them from outside ok.
I have reinstalled ADOBE CS3 and this appeared to resolve the issue, only for it to return again a day later.
She has no other applications or processes running during her attempt to open a file from within CS3.
She will click on Open and the 'Open File' window will flash up for a split second, then the whole application will be frozen. It is as if the 'Open File' window is there, but isnt there because we cant click on it, but the application thinks it is displaying and so she can not click on anything else. The only way to close the application is to end the process under Task Manager.
While I am sitting here tearing what little amount of hair I have on my head, can anyone point me in the right direction?
Is this a Windows problem or an ADOBE problem do you think?
I look forward to any replies.
Thank you

Hi Bob
Ok...
Opened illustrator but was unable to open the 'Open File' window.
Changed the screen resolution, it suddenly worked!
Changed the screen resolution back to as it was before, it also worked.
What could cause this do you think?
By simply changing the screen resolution and back again, the 'Open File' window displayed itself.
Very bizarre!

How to get the entries in a jar/zip file contained within a jar/zip file?

If I want to list the jar/zip entries in a jar/zip file contained within a jar/zip file how can I do that?
In order to get to the entry enumeration I need a Zip/JarFile:
ZipFile zip = new ZipFile("C:/java_dev/Java_dl/java_jdk_commander_v36d.zip");
// Process the zip file. Close it when the block is exited.
try {
// Loop through the zip entries and print the name of each one.
for (Enumeration list =zip.entries(); list.hasMoreElements(); ) {
ZipEntry entry = (ZipEntry) list.nextElement();
System.out.println(entry.getName());
finally {
zip.close();
Zip file "java_jdk_commander_v36d.zip" contains two zip entries:
1) UsersGuide.zip
2) JDKcommander.exe
How to list the entries in "jar:file:/C:/java_dev/Java_dl/java_jdk_commander_v36d.zip!/UsersGuide.zip"?
The following code:
URL url = new URL("jar:file:/C:/java_dev/Java_dl/java_jdk_commander_v36d.zip!/UsersGuide.zip");
JarURLConnection jarConnection = (JarURLConnection)url.openConnection();
zipFile = (ZipFile)jarConnection.getJarFile();
would point to "jar:file:/C:/java_dev/Java_dl/java_jdk_commander_v36d.zip", which is no help at all and Class JarURLConnection does not have an enumeration method.
How can I do this?
Thanks.
Andre

I'm not sure I understand the problem. The difference between a zip and jar file is the manifest file; JarFile is extended from ZipFile and is able to read the manifest, other than that they are the same. Your code
for (Enumeration list =zip.entries(); list.hasMoreElements(); ) {
ZipEntry entry = (ZipEntry) list.nextElement();
System.out.println(entry.getName());
}is close to what I've use for a jar, below. Why not use the same approach? I don't understand what you're trying to do by using JarURLConnection - it's usually used to read the jar contents.
String jarName = "";
JarFile jar = null;
try
    jar = new JarFile(jarName);
catch (IOException ex)
    System.out.println("Unable to open jarfile" + jarName);
    ex.printStackTrace();
for ( Enumeration en = jar.entries() ; en.hasMoreElements() ;)
    System.out.println(en.nextElement());
}

Is it possible to create a menu structure within iWeb with a so called tree layout? iWeb only provides automatically a horizontal layout

Is it possible to create a menu structure within iWeb with a so called tree layout? iWeb only provides automatically a horizontal layout

Not in iWeb itself.
You have to create these menus yourself. Start here :
     A List Apart: Articles: Suckerfish Dropdowns
Also, see podcast episode 9 of
     CSS Tricks and Tips
and then add them to a webpage with the HTML Snippet.
Or add the menu to the webpage with a JavaScript.
Here's a sample page :
     http://www.wyodor.net/mfi/roodhout/
     http://www.wyodor.net/mfi/spelling/
     http://www.wyodor.net/mfi/Maaskant/Some_Menus.html
The how-to-do page are here and here.
More sample pages on my Made for iPad with iWeb pages.

You may have to learn HTML, CSS, JavaScript, AJAX, DOM and how iWeb creates its pages.

An error occurred while publishing file "/Web/Sites/iWeb/Jim and Steph's Si

I'm guessing this is a common message most see when they try to publish their website. Reason I say this, is it is the only message I have recieved in the last week when trying to use this faulty software.
Here it is again if you missed it:
An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/iWeb/Jim and Steph's Site/Jim's Blog”.
I got this MacBook week ago yesterday. Totally excited to share pictures and blog information. Spent 99 dollars or close to it for a mac account to simply share this information on the web. The first four pages (all pictures), I published worked well. Then I updated to iWeb 1.1.1 and tried to publish with blogs and more pictures and it won't work. Now all that I published before does not even come up. I emailed support here on mac.com and got the generic reply that I have already read on this forum. I tired as many fixes as I could to no avail. Two questions:
1. Any ideas to fix this problem?
2. Can you get your money back?
Sorry this was so long.
Thanks everyone,
Jim B

Jim...
Try doing a "Publish All to .Mac" if nothing else works for you. And if I could make a recommendation, it probably wouldn't be a bad thing to simplify your site name (Jim and Steph's Site) and eliminate the apostrophes (also in Jim's Blog). A longer site URL with complexities such as punctuation and spaces and even capitalization can potentially wreak havoc on your site navigation and function. Simplifying your site and page names will at the very least lead to shorter and more recognizable URLs...and when you start to add more pages it will also make the navigation menu at the top of your pages look "cleaner". Think simple names, like "oursite" and "HeSays" or "SheSays"
Just a suggestion.

Saving the domain file in iWeb fails. I have tried deleting the cache. I see that the file uploads to iWeb but the message is that the domain.sites2 file can't be saved. I note that duplicating the domain gives me different size files. Ideas?

I have read other discussions and my problem persists.
I note that duplicating the domain file user/library/applications support/iweb/domain.sites2 gives me files of varying sizes (I'm at around 200Mb).
I tried rebuilding the cache ../library/caches/com.apple.iweb - no change
I found a note to delete also a preference file ../library/prefernces/com.apple.iweb bt found more than one (.../plist and .../plist.lockfile) so ducked that.
The website seems to update out of sync - as if I have a domain file elsewhere (in the cloud?) that is saving on my drive later - that doesn't make sense of the comments I have read. My domain.sites2 file is stadily growing - so one interpretation is that files are being saved and the error message is the error.
This has been a problem for about a year as I have tried many alternative solutions. I;m looking fro somethign substantially different.
One repeated situation is that I write a new page and upload it. I get the usual error message. I visit the site and there is the new page. My domain (on my machine) shows no new work, so I copy the stuff on the web back to my domain and steadily the file increases in size. Bewildering.
Everything is as up to date as it can be. I don't reboot very often as my machine is rarley off.
I'm looking for different ideas and approaches.....

Although some of the following will be a repeat but try the following:
delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
Click to view full size
launch iWeb and try again.
If that doesn't help continue with:
move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
launch iWeb and try again.

Timecapsule - opening files from within an application!!

I have a time capsule... 500Mb
I have an airport extreme with external hard drive - 250 Mb.
Through Finder, I can place files on either of these drives and open them from Finder.
If I open Numbers, or Pages, then try to open any file on Timecapsule, it appears that there are no files
If I open Number, or Pages, then try to open any file on the Airport Extreme external disk - it works!
Simple question really.... why cannot I see or open any file from within an application that resides on Timecapsule?? It's driving me crazy!!!

File dialogs have the ability to "group" items, which prohibits you from changing sort options. The group icon looks like six little squares. Click on it and instead of grouping by date, group by "none" and then you can change sort orders.

WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization?

WHY does the finder insist on rearranging the files and/or documents in a folder in alphabetical order even when I have selected "none" in the preferences for file organization? Even after I numbered the documents/folders to keep them in my preferred order, it will still displace them occasionally. This is becoming increasingly frustrating!
Is this a "Pages" issue or "FInder"? The vast majority of documents I use are in Pages, but there are also Numbers, PDFs, jpegs and a few other applications involved. This never happened before I upgraded to Mountain Lion; in Tiger, the documents (mostly Appleworks) and files stayed where I wanted them to be.
I am visually oriented, and prefer to arrange items in a folder in an order that makes them easier for me to access, which is often NOT alphabetical.
Can anyone suggest a solution? Please??
Thank you.
Sara

nbar,
Thank you for your reply.
However, I do not understand what you mean by "user account." I am the only user, and can find no options for "user" or "guest." The parental controls have always been off, as there are no other people who have access to my computer.
Frank,
Thank you for your reply.
All my documents, files and folders are in icon view, Arranged By: none in both view and view options. This arbitrary rearranging does not happen all the time, only when I make a substantial change to one of the documents in the file or folder. I'm not sure what you mean by "column heading."
MichaelLAX,
Thank you for your reply.
I know, to my sorrow, that Appleworks does not work with Mountain Lion. I spent at least three months converting approximately 2,000 Appleworks documents to Pages, Numbers, Bento (for databases) and Touchdraw (for drawings). So this is not the problem; but as I said, I did not have this rearranging problem with Appleworks - the icons stayed where I wanted them to be. I still miss the ease and reliability of Appleworks, darn it!
Frank,
Thank you for your second reply.
I do have the Sort By: in view options as well as in view set to "none." The finder still insists on rearranging, but only when I have made a substantial change to a document in that file or folder.
Any futher thoughts?
xdab,
Thank you for your reply.
"Are you are using icon view, but for some reason the finder moves files around? is that the problem?"
YES!! This is exactly the problem.
"If this operation is successful then erase the original and rename the new one to the name originally chosen by the user."
This seems like a lot of trouble, especially as I often work on several documents at the same time.
"By the way, the finder has a "clean up by" menu that rearranges icons in one of the standard orders, there are shortcuts that produce the same effect, for example <option><cmd>1 sorts them by name. Is it possible that this shortcut was typed by mistake without you noticing?"
I do know about this "clean up by" option, and avoid it like the plague! So I doubt this is the issue, and I infrequently use keyboard shortcuts like this anyway.
Thanks all who replied. None of the suggestions seem to work, however. Any others out there?
Regards,
Sara

Unable to open files from within Photoshop

Hi, I've updated to CC 2014.2.1 and I'm continuing to get this message when I attempt to open a file from within Photoshop (it started when I installed a beta versionYosemite, so I switched back to Mavericks, but it didn't help, [so many updates with Cloud, I lose track..]). I noticed someone else with a similar problem, but from 2013. Anyway, I get this message: 'Could not complete your request because of a program error.' I restart Photoshop, then I can open a few files, but then the errors start over.
Also, I'm not really familiar with the 'forum' means of support, but if anyone knows a solution to this beyond 'google it', which I've done, I'd appreciate it.
-Stu

Thanks Jeffery Tranberry—this did the trick. BUT while an answer to my issue gave the following feedback to Adobe....
Use of COVERFLOW if EXTREMELY IMPORTANT (in Photoshop) when working fast with hundreds of images. Who the heck labels every single image asset file—and knows what that is without a visual cue? WHEN IS THIS ON THE ROADMAP TO BE FIXED?????????? UGH! MAVERICKS has been coming for MONTHS. Why was this not vetted on Adobe's end as a valuable roadmap item for its users? I would have ranked this a high item from a user experience end and fought for inclusion on the developers roadmap. What is the ETA on a real fix concerning Mavericks & Coverflow use with Photoshop?

How to run a batch file from within an Oracle 9i Form?

Hi, I would like to execute a batch file from within an oracle form - I'm assuming there's some PLSQL command I can use?
