Fixed Position Divs Won't Position Correctly

Hi,
I'm using Dreamweaver CS5 and trying to put a series of thumbnail images within a div using the fixed position method. They look great in Live View but when the page is posted they shift way off to the left. Here's the page:
www.acemon.com/features.html
It looks pretty bad in Firefox and absolutely awful in Internet Explorer.
I added background colors to the various divs (partly to help me locate them correctly) and I want to center the photos in the greenish box. I'm a fairly new Dreamweaver user and spent about two hours trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Thanks,
-Ace-

Thank you. I am in your debt.

Fields in Fixed Position

Hey everyone
I am having a problem with one of my reports. The problem is I want to have a field that has a fixed position on the report say, but whenever I run the report, it always moves my text right below the previous repeating frame or shows up on the last page only. I have set my property for this field to Show All Pages, but it doesnt' seem to work. How can I do this?
Thanks, much appreciated
Cheers

Hi,
Very nice explanation. Thanks.
What you have to do is..
As you said that after printing detail records the frame goes to almost 9 inches of each page and then in the end you want to print that last field. So in layout editor of you report i can see the field F_REPEATING_TEXT is close to that repeating frame. Just increase the size of repeating frame and make it vertical 9 inch in your layout editor. And keep the same distance for this field and frame in layout editor then set the repeating frame property VERTICAL ELASTICITY to FIXED. As i said in my previous post. Then your layout of report should look like this
Repeating Frame
|Field1 (Inside the repeating frame)|
Repeating Frame End here
F_REPEATING_TEXTSo, as you can see what you have to do now. Just expand the frame till end of you layout editor just leave the space for that repeating field and set property FIXED for repeating frame and the field property is correct. Then it will work..

Clone stamp - fixed position sampling?

It seems there is a way to fix the sampling to a fixed position on the alt-click so that the cross does not move even though you are moving the brush. Is that correct and if so, how?

Also,be aware that unchecking that box does not hold all the time. not sure if its a recognized bug or not, but it constantly rechecks itself on my machine.

Standard report with fixed position.

Hello,
I have a page where i want the first report to have a fixed position.
I have 3 regions with reports, the first will only display product name and number, the next report will display sales. The last report is very long so I have to scroll quite a bit. That's why i want the first report with names to have a fixed position so i can see which product i'm looking at.
I have tried to make a copy of the standard report template, and in the before rows i have this code
<table class="t3standard" summary="Report" style="position:fixed;">
this didn't work
Is this a way of making changes to the report template? Is it possible to make theese kind of changes in the report template or du I have to go inside the CSS file to add position:fixed somewhere?
Anders

What browser(s) are you using? Win IE doesn't support fixed positioning :-(
How about setting a fixed height for the last report and making it scrollable using overflow: scroll? This would make the first 2 reports "fixed" by default...

Reading fixed position files with File Adapter

Hi !
I'm trying to use the file adapter to read a file with data in fixed positions .
I cannot get it to work, I'm getting :
[Line=3, Col=133] Expected "${eol}" at the specified position in the native data, while trying to read the data for "element with name Hours", using "style" as "array" and "cellSeparatedBy" as "${eol}", but not found.
Ensure that "${eol}", exists at the specified position in the native data.
and don't understand what the problem is.

Sorry I didn't reply sooner.
If you are only interested in the first 133 characters then as you stated you need to put in a dummy filler at the end.
The file adapter is not as smart as you think. What is does is reads the string in a stream, so it gets its command and reads the stream until it hits it, then it gets the next command.
In your situation you said read 1 - 133 thinking it would ignore the other characters in the line. In reality what happens is that it reads the first 133 characters. Assuming that it wasn't looking for a end of line it would then read the next 133 characters. This would include the character you want to ignore, so your pattern would fail.
Good way to think about it is to apply the rules as if you are reading the file your self. In your mind you say read these characters then I want to ignore all the others in the row. You have to tell the file adapter to do the same.
Hope this explains.
cheers

How to put the URL-bar at a fixed position to the right of tabs ?

I have moved the URL-BAR to the right of tabs, on the same row, and reduced the size with a few lines in "userChrome.css".
I want the URL-bar to be at a fixed position as far to the right as possible, so i get as much free space as i can for my tabs.
I´m using FF 20.

Sounds that you are using wrong code in the userChrome.css file.
You can set the max-width of the location bar and the search bar to force a maximum width of both bars.
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
#urlbar-container { max-width: 400px !important; }
#search-container { max-width: 200px !important; }
</nowiki></pre>

Preview of Fixed Position Based eText template displays the formatting

Hi,
I am trying to create an EFT template using the eText Fixed Position Based instructions. I copied an existing Fixed Position Based template and made the changes that were needed. When I hit the Preview link, it displays the payments in the formatted template, not in the output that I'm trying to create by using the template.
Can anyone tell me what step I'm missing? I have created other types of templates and they preview fine.
Thanks

There is no difference between DELIMITER_BASED and FIXED_POSITION_BASED
you can pick up the fixed and convert it into delimiter based,
allowed columns are MaximumLength,Format,Data,Tag,Comments. delete the rest of the columns.
And for DELIMITER_BASED templates,After every data field row,you have to insert a delimiter row and put appropriate field delimiters in separate rows between the fields.

Displaying a widget (JPanlel) at fixed positions

Hi!
I have a form and I want to display a JPanel when I click on different widgets with its left-top corner at the mouse location. I think I can figure out how to get the mouse coordinates, but I don't know how to tell a JPanel to position itself at a fixed position.
Any suggestions?
Thank you,
Catalin

You can have two static varibles which can make a note of the x and y coordinates. wenver the user clicks on the frame you can create the panel and place it at the frame at the specified place.
setPosition will be useful in this context....

Reports - Priting a frame at a fixed position

I am developing an invoice report which prints order details and a payment stub. Order detail is in one frame and stub in another. I want to print the stub always at a fixed position towards the end of the page. Frame for the stub has a pageprotect. When the order frame takes nearly a page, the stub is printed on top of the next page. How can I force it to print towards the bottom of the page?
Thanks in advance.

The reason why your payment stub goes to the top of the next page is because of the implicit anchoring that exists between the stub frame and the details frame.
I suggest you draw a normal frame which ecloses both the frame and having vertically expand property and then manually achor the bottom of the stub frame with the bottom the new frame. This should solve the problem.
All the best. Reply if you get any other solution.

Keeping elements in a fixed position on a scrolling article

Is it possible to keep an object in a fixed position (sat 300px from the top of the screen) while the rest of the article scrolls vertically?
If so, how is it done?
Thanks

No, not at this time.
That would be a cool "enhanced overlay" feature, right Neil?

[E72] No fix position without A-GPS

Hi all, this is my first post on this furum.
Excuse me for my bad english!
I have purchased a new Nokia E72...
When A-GPS is disable the phone can't make fix position :-(
I can wait 5, 10, 15 min. in open areas... no way, fix position is impossible!
I have checked on an Italian forum of telephony, a lot of people have exactly the same problem with Nokia E72!
This is an hardware bug?! Firmware bug?!
(when A-GPS is active the fix is very very fast and GPS antenna work good!)
Thanks in advance

no buddy it´s not about hardware bug or software bug u have to understand the difference between GPS & A-GPS. A-GPS, is a carrier network dependent system which can, under certain conditions, improve the startup performance of a GPS satellite-based positioning system. It is used extensively with GPS-capable celluler phones.
Conventional or "Standalone GPS" operation uses radio signals from satellites. In very poor signal conditions, for example in a city, these signals may suffer multipath where signals bounce confusingly off buildings, or be weakened by passing through walls or tree cover. When first turned on in these conditions, some non-assisted GPS navigation device may not be able to work out a position due to the fragmentary signal, rendering them unable to function until a clear signal can be received continuously for up to 40 seconds (the time needed to download the GPS ephemeris.) Some newer receivers are better at handling these situations.
An A-GPS system can address these problems in several ways, using an assistance server or other data from a network.
for better explanation Google it.
