Has ANYONE created a web site from scratch with iweb 08 that is stable?

I have tried all the tricks i have been able to find to convert my old iweb 1.2 site to the new iweb08 software. I have tried deleting plist files, and changing the themes and re-saving. I am about to give up, and have two options
1. recreate the ENTIRE site from scratch. I am happy to do this, so long as there are people who have done it and their site domain files remain stable.
or
2. Go back to iweb 1.2 and save myself hassle.
Can anyone advise on this?
To apple : You have treated me like a sucker customer. I love you, but you have spat in my face with this terrible software. it destroys everything it touches. Shame on you for treating us all with disdain.

Hi damoyoungsf,
I have managed to recreate my website (www.vnlc.org is the domain name, www.studentgroups.ucla.edu/vnlc is the real address) and fixed the bugs as of yesterday, it took around 6 hours of fiddling but worth it for the new features. I used the watercolor theme, and you can visit the webpage to test its stability. The problems I encountered were:
1. Blog/Podcast pages didn't convert correctly, the yellow/blue band is missing and the picture frames were missing also, also some of the events had incorrect formatting.
a. Fix: You're going to have to recreate these pages, when a page has errors after a program update like this, its better to recreate the page again rather than keep stumbling with further little bugs that might pop up in the future.
2. Links to pages with titles that include the symbols : and - and foreign characters do not work.
a. I think this is a major area in which iweb08 digressed because I used to be able to use foreign and special characters in my links, but now I can't because it would not link appropriately.
Every other page seemed to work well, or had minor problem like incorrect font colors which can be remedied without recreating the whole page. I did not have the photo page problems that some other people had, my photo pages rendered perfectly and now has nice new features.
As a final word, iWeb'08 or rather the whole iLife'08 suite seems to be Beta status just like when Mac OS X first came out. Apple likes throwing at us these problematic new software and wait for the bugs to crop up to fix it. After I first got iWeb'08, I knew it would have major problems but I am hoping further updates would remedy our woes.

    Is it possible to add and view your key words when creating a web site from Lightroom 4?

    Hi,
    I had the same problem with
    "java.lang.NullPointerException at com.sap.tc.webdynpro.clientimpl.html.uielib.standard.uradapter.ViewContainerUIElementAdapter.getContent(ViewContainerUIElementAdapter.java:98)"
    when I included ViewUsages dynamically in an action handler (outside wdDoInit()).
    The code below fixed that problem.
    This code creates a new OutboundPlug for the embedding view with the embedded view as target and fires the plug.
    <i>// Create OutboundPlug
    IWDOutboundPlugInfo outboundPlug = embedderViewInfo.createOutboundPlug();
    //Create navigation link
    rootViewUsage.createNavigationTarget(outboundPlug.getName(), interfaceViewUsage, "Default");
    // fire navigation link
    wdThis.wdGetAPI().firePlug(outboundPlug, Collections.EMPTY_MAP);
    </i>
    I hope I could help you. Probably you don't need the information anymore, but perhaps anybody else has the same problem.

  • Has anyone created an auction site in BC?

    We have a client who wants to build a real estate site that allows online bidding for properties. I expect it would be based on the basic real estate web app, allowing punters to sumbit a bid, displaying the highest bid and notifiying users if they have been outbid. I'd like to have a look at anyone else who's done this using BC funtionality.
    cheers

    You can not properly build that on this platform. You can fudge lots of aspects of it but no. You need a dedicated system which likely will be heavily modified to meet the needs of the client to do this properly.

    I'm hoping there may be a way around this?
    Web gallery in bridge is very limited, the templates showing are the ones you have to work with, if you can't adjust them further then they show then that is your limit I'm afraid.
    But maybe you can try the filmstrip  templates?

  • Can we create a Web Service from a Business Object??

    Hello All,
    Has anyone created a Web Service using a Business Object?
    When I am trying to create a Web Service in TM box, I can see that couple of options like Business Objects, Process Agents are disabled and rest like Consumer Group, Service Provider are enabled. Any idea why this is happening. Is this related to some configuration setting.
    Regards,

    please elaborate in which environment or case you are creating Web Service from Business Object.As per my understanding we generally create web service through Wizard.

  • Any difference in creating a web service from a java class or session bean?

    Hi,
    The JDeveloper tutorial at http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe1013jdev/10131/devdepandmanagingws/devdepandmanagingws.htm demonstrates creating a web service from a plain java class. I'm wondering:
    - Is it possible to create a web service from a stateless session bean instead of a java class? If so, what's the proper way to do this in JDeveloper? When I tried doing so in JDeveloper 10.1.3.0.4 (SU5) using the J2EE Web Service wizard, the wizard did not list the session bean in the Component To Publish dropdown (it does list any java classes available in the project). I can proceed by manually typing in the name of the session bean. After the wizard completes though, the @Stateless annotation that had been in my session bean class code is removed and replaced by a @WebService annotation. The end result is that it looks like it made no difference whether I had tried to create the web service from a session bean or plain java class as the annotations in the resulting web service code are the same (although if I had started from a session bean, the class for the web service still implements the Local/Remote EJB interface that the session bean originally implemented).
    - Assuming it's possible to create a web service from a stateless session bean, is there any advantage/disadvantage creating a web service from a java class vs a stateless session bean? I'm creating the web service from scratch so I also need to either build the java class or stateless session bean the web service would be based on from scratch too.
    Thanks for any ideas about this.

    Hi,
    EJB Session beans (EJB 3.0) are deployed as WebServices by annotating the class with @WebService and the methds with @WebMethod (both tags require you to add the JSR-181 library to your project (available in the JDeveloper list of libraries)). Unlike the J2E WebService, the EJB session bean service is turned into a WebService upon deployment. This means you obtain teh WSDL file after deployment
    - Assuming it's possible to create a web service from a stateless session bean, is there any advantage/disadvantage creating a web service from a java class vs a stateless session bean?
    The difference is that EJB Session bean based web services are integrated with the J2EE container, which means that they can leverage container services like transaction handling, data sources, security, JMS etc.

  • Created a web site in iweb, i have a domain through godaddy, what resource can I use as host?

    Created a web site in iweb. I have a domain name through GoDaddy, What resource should I use to make site public?

    I would agree that it helps the newcomer to FTP to have a hosting service whose tech support understand the unique structure of iWeb created sites. I have lost count of the number of users who have asked me to sort out problems created by tech support employed by numerous hosting services - including the mighty GoDaddy.
    A lot of tech support people don't seem to bother to look at the form and function of the iWeb index.html files and advise users that they have to rename their home page to "index". While this holds true for most websites, it certainly doesn't apply to iWeb.
    Its not "simply the html and css files". How many users come unstuck when they forget about the feed.xml?
    People who hand out advice in this forum about uploading files via "Cyberduck" tend to miss out the part about the importance of maintaining the site structure by uploading the whole folder created by iWeb plus the external index.html.
    They also may not have been around back when I first announced that I uploaded the contents of the iWeb folder to get rid of the site name in the URL. I was shot down in flames by the iWeb "experts" and told that this was impossible - even although I was obviously doing it!
    Although this method of uploading the files has become accepted practice in the iWeb community I wouldn't recommend it to those who are new to FTP unless they have help from a tech support person who actually understands the problems involved and can point out the downside. Those who claim that it is "simple" and "easy" have obviously forgotten the first time that they tried it!
    A lot of the people who come to this forum for help with FTP end up in a complete mess due to the conflicting and inadequate advice they get due to the fact that the "adviser" hasn't a clue about the hosting account structure and can't view the actual files. In many cases, I have had to go into the users hosting account and sort out the mess created by bad advice and ignorance. This should really be done by the hosting service's tech support but, in many cases, they helped create the problem in the first place.
    The mere fact that an iWeb user has to come to this forum for help with FTP seems to suggest that their hosting service has inferior tech support.

  • Started creating a web site using iWeb, signed up for MobileMe trial, now iWeb won't work?

    So I started playing around with iWeb and created a web site for my portfolio. I then signed up for a trial of the MobileMe. After I went through the whole setup process for MobileMe...setting up on my iPod Touch, then on my iMac, then syncing all the apps...I back to iWeb to publish my web site to my newly created MobileMe account. Only iWeb was unresponsive. I tried to restart the application. I get as far as the welcome screen with the "Getting Started Video", but there is no iWeb window open behind that. I tried to restart my machine...nothing!
    Now I have this MobileMe trial that is ticking away and I can't even use it. Please help, thanks.

    Update. After a conversation with Marlon at Apple Support, we have it resolved. As soon as I mentioned that iWeb would launch properly on other profiles, we figured out that it has to be a preference problem. I should have known better, its one of the first things to check. But, I've been away from macs for a little bit, so I'm a little rusty in the troubleshooting dept.
    To trash iWeb preferences:
    1) Quit iWeb
    2) Navigate to:
    User Directory --> Library --> Preferences  --> com.apple.iWeb.plist
    3) Take this file and drag it to your desktop
    4) Relaunch iWeb
    5) If everything works as it should, you can take the preference file you dragged to your desktop and move it to      the recycle bin.
    Somewhere in the MobileMe registration and setup process the preferences for iWeb froze up. Trashing the iWeb preferences fixed the problem.
    If I come across any issues posting site to MM or posting site updates to MM I will update this thread.

  • VS Exp 2013: Unable to create the Web site ... The components for communicating with FTP servers are not installed.

    I have MS Visual Studio Express 2013 It has worked fine for many months and then suddenly (I have made no configuration changes or added new programs) when I try to publish I am getting the message:
    Unable to create the Web site 'ftp://ftp.xx.xx/xxx.org.uk/www/htdocs'. The components for communicating with FTP servers are not installed.
    (I have replaced actual name with x's).
    I had a similar problem some months ago and found that saving all files, closing VS 2013 and re-starting the program fixed the problem. This time it has not.
    I am at a loss to know how to take this forwards. I do not use IIS.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Michael.

    Hi Michael,
    For web site development, so you use the VS2013 express for web, am I right? We have to make sure that it is not the VS version issue.
    As you said that it worked well before, did you install other add-ins or tools in your VS IDE like
    Xamarin or others?
    Maybe you could disable or remove all add-ins in your VS IDE, test it again.
    please also install the VS2013 update 4 in your side.

  • Create .XML Project File from Scratch

    Hi,
    i am from germany, currently writing my bachelors degree creating an automated video editing solution based on final cut studio (yeeessss ... finally
    I need to write complex final cut pro projects FROM SCRATCH in an EXTERNAL .XML editor using to greatly speed up the workflow. This means i am looking for any help regarding this topic, such as applescripts who can assist me in doing this.
    (Example: Create an Final Cut (.xml) Project with applescript that has already included links to media on an external server, has music in it etc.)
    I already have the "FinalCutPro_XML" reference and the "quickie_slate" Applescript which is a start. Any more tips where to look would be greatly appreciated.

    i'd recommend you create an empty project file in FCP and export it to XML.
    use the exported file as resource data, as it provides you with the basic XML project file container.
    then you can just add the additional <parent> and <child> elements as required
    also highly recommended would be the free XMLLib osax from Satimage, although it would be better if you learn how to do it with the built in libraries

  • Web pages from scratch

    Is there a way to build web pages from scratch and upload them via LOADPSP.EXE, similarly to the way you can do it witht the web toolkit?
    For example:
    <html>
    <body>
    <% some plsql code here %>
    show output here: <%=variable%>
    </body>
    </html>
    Thanks,
    Christoph

    Thanks for the reply.
    I found a little workaround that gives me what i need:
    1. I create the psp page in Dreamweaver
    2. Load it in to my test database with loadpsp.
    3. Copy the procedure body from the test database into a PL/SQL Dynamic Content region.
    The only changes i have to make are changing the procedure parameters to use htmldb bind variables.

  • Has anyone ever had an email from Apple asking them to update their details for their Apple account on IPad? Kinda worried as it asks for my bank details and bank account number and security code on the back of the card. Thanks :)

    Has anyone ever had an email from Apple on IPad asking them to update their account details? The email seems genuine enough as it asks you to sign in with your Apple ID and password and takes you through to the Apple site but am a bit worried as they ask you in the section Update Your Apple account for bank and credit card details and for the security number on the back of the card. Also in the section where it asks for my mobile number it will only take 10 numbers and when ai try to put in the final (11th number) it won't let me. Sorry am new to all this and a bit confused! Any help is gratefully appreciated.....Thanks.
