Help...empty lines in code Dreamweaver CS3

Wow, why are all adobe applications so messed up?  No friend of mine to be sure but have to use this application because my company says so...
How can I remove empty lines of code from my pages?  It's just endless P paragraph signs...I usually fix the bugs in adobe's wysiwyg via hand coding so the empty lines are really irritating to me. I miss macromedia's version of Dreamweaver
BTW...the servers are not the issue as far as I can see.  And I've already tried to do the find and replace fix...just freezes the application.
Any fix for this bug would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

Have you taken the time to learn to use Adobe apps correctly and understand how they work? In general, they're very well written and very powerful when used with skill and care.
Plenty of professionals and hobbyists around the world use them daily without seeing the issues you're seeing.
Endless p tags are there because you put them there: either via Code View or repeatedly pressing Enter for no reason in Design View.

    You can use the CS3Clean script:
    http://www.adobe.com/go/kb401574
    It's designed for removing beta versions, but should also
    work with the
    final release. Read the instructions carefully. The script
    will remove
    all CS3 programs on your computer.

  • Help creating a form in Dreamweaver CS3

    Hello, I am trying to insert a form in order for people to
    fill out their info, submit (and a re-set button for info if
    needed), and for the form to go to a specific email address.
    I have the table created (i just copied and pasted from a
    sample online)
    How can i create this? I am pretty new at this :)
    I am attaching the code to what i copied and pasted.
    Please help, thanks!!

    You can make a form in DW but you need a server-side script
    to process the
    information for you. Suggest you look at one of the
    formmail.php scripts.
    Dont bother with anything old like formmail.cgi.
    http://www.dtheatre.com/scripts/formmail.php
    for example.

  • Help adding a banner in dreamweaver cs3 plz help

    Not sure why your posts are coming in multiple lots - your last message came in three times.
    Onto your colour problem.  this is a personal opinion of course, but currently, the burgandy text behind the green in your header is very difficult to read.  The added white dropshadow doesn't enhance the text, only makes it hard to read.
    I would possibly make the header box white so that your logo and tagline stand out a lot more than they do.  I would use the green/burgandy combination only as accents in your layout.  Maybe a burgandy navigation bar, and use a solid green for the footer with which text.  I would likely thrown in some blue or grey, both mix well with burgandy  :-)

  • PLEASE HELP - Problem with 2 column fixed template in Dreamweaver CS3

    I am trying to create a website using the 2 column fixed, right sidebar, header and footer html template in Dreamweaver CS3.  I tried putting a picture in the right side bar as well as with in the main content or left portion of the page, and neither picture is showing up when I view it in any of the browsers I'm using.
    I've made some minor changes in colors and sizing, but other than that no other changes.  The pic I put in for the header is showing up just fine though.
    Any help or advice to solve this issue would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!!

    Here is the base Dreamweaver code including the pic references that I'm trying to show on either side - when the browser opens, it only shows a blank space where the pics should be... let me know what you think.  Thanks!!

  • Using Spry how to stop Dreamweaver CS3 from Changing Code

    Hi
      I am using Dreamweaver CS3 to build/maintain a website www.ghoter.net. I started using Spry to insert data from an xml file as I need the data in the xml file to show up on several different pages, includeing the home page. The data in the xml file changes from time to time. This is working wery well. But I am having a problem with Dreamweaver automaticly  changing a line of code in the html files every time I make a change to the html file. The line of code that is being changed is in the head of the program.
    This is the line of code that is being changed: The xml's name is data-3.xml The date from the xml file goes at the top of the left collumn.
    The good code is:  var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("data-3.xml", "customers/customer",{distinctOnLoad:true});
    The above line of code is automaticly being changed to this below, which does not work:
    var ds1 = new Spry.Data.XMLDataSet("data-3.xml", "customers/customer",<MM:BeginLock translatorClass="MM_SPRY" type="MM_SPRY_DATA_REFERENCE" orig="{distinctOnLoad:true}" ><MM_DYNAMIC_CONTENT DYNAMICDATA=1><MM:DECORATION HILITECOLOR="Dyn Untranslated Color">{distinctOnLoad:true}</MM:DECORATION></MM_DYNAMIC_CONTENT></script><MM:EndLock>);
    I can replace the bad line of code with the good code just befor saving the html file and the good line of code will be saved with the file and the web page works as it should.
    Any help would be appricated. Thanks

    Hi Jack,
    I think (not sure though) that the Library Item is causing the problem. I never use the Library Item because server side includes are far more efficient and need less maintenance.
    Have a look here http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/sprymenu/ssi.php
    If you have PHP serverside scripting language, use DW to add serverside includes using PHP.
    Getting back to your original problem, try without the Library Item and see if DW still changes the code.
    I hope this helps.

  • Dreamweaver CS3 Code Formatting broken

    Hello, I am experiencing a huge deal of frustration with the
    way Dreamweaver improperly formats code. In particular, the UL / LI
    tags do not format correctly. Here is what I am trying to achieve:
    <ul>
    <li>
    TEXT
    </li>
    </ul>
    Now this pattern seems to correspond exactly to the preview
    that you see when you go to Preferences > Code Format > Tag
    Libraries, select the LI tag and choose Line Breaks: Before,
    Inside, After and Contents: Formatted and Indented.
    I have done this. I have also manually checked the .vtm file
    in username > Application Data > Adobe > Dreamweaver >
    Configuration etc.... and it corresponds to what I have set in the
    Prefs.
    However, when I use Design View to create the unordered list,
    OR even if I just TOUCH a properly formatted list in Design View,
    everything gets squeezed onto one line. I get this sort of thing:
    <ul> <li>TEST</li> <li>MORE
    TEST</li> </ul>
    Here is what I have tried unsuccessfully to date:
    1. Prefs > Code Formatting > Edit Tag Libraries...
    2. Prefs > Code Format > UNCHECK Do not include a break
    inside TD tag (I know, that's for TD, but I'm just trying
    everything(
    3. Prefs -> line breaks (tried Unix, Windows)
    4. Commands > Apply Source Formatting (messes up my entire
    code by putting everything inside the BODY tag on one line - in
    other words, my entire page goes on one line now!)
    5. Automatic Wrapping After Column 76 - this one is really
    stupid, it just does a HARD break on each line so when you turn it
    back off you have to go in and manually delete all these hard
    breaks now...
    There's a bunch of other small things I have tried, but
    needless to say, nothing appears to be working.
    Has no one else experienced this? Can you get Design View to
    properly format UL / LI tags? If so, then something on my computer
    is messed. But when I look at code generated by DW on some of my
    co-workers' computers, they also have the same problem - I just
    guess their tolerance for crappy code is higher than mine.
    I'm using DW 9.0 (CS3) build 3481.
    Please help! I have no hair left on my head to tear out and I
    may have to go further afield.... ouch!
    Thanks,
    Tom

    I just checked on DW CS4 and it's working as expected. If I
    change my LI
    entry in the Tag Libraries to Line Breaks: Before, Inside,
    After and
    Contents like you, I get your desired effect. Moreover, it
    doesn't revert -
    or worse if any changes are made, whether in Design or Code
    view. I know
    this doesn't help you verify or correct your CS3 issue, but
    at least you
    know there is an upgradeable light at the end of the tunnel.

  • Dreamweaver cs3 code accuracy

    Hi,  have dreamweaver cs3 and i am a beginner. just started to use it again and want to have dynammic web pages. trying asp for dynamic pages using data from an access database.  running into many parser and compiler errors when testing on localhost.  Is there a problem with the accuracy of cs3 code written?  has the syntax changed in the past few years?  or must i spend significant time learning the basics of writing code to determine the accuracy of cs3?
    an example:  with asp.net vb   there is an error in line one...
    ctive Server Pages error 'ASP 0221'
    Invalid @ Command directive
    /PPG_asp/databasetest.asp, line 1
    The specified 'Page Language="VB" ContentType="text/html" ResponseEncoding="utf-8" ' option is unknown or invalid.
    have tried other formats with variable results; some get farther down the code;
    would appreciate some help so i don't go nuts......thank you

    are you implying that the newer versions of IIS might be more up to date than the cs3 dreamweaver and that is where my problems will arise? 
    I am not implying anything.  I am simply wondering if the IIS is configured properly.  Have you tried creating a basic static page and load it in your browser to see if it loads OK? 
    Obviously, without looking at your code it is almost impossible to say anything meaningful.  However, I suggest post your query at this link:

  • Need help creating a simple form in Dreamweaver CS3!!

    I'm trying to create a form in Dreamweaver CS3, and while I have the form built I'm confused as to how to make it actually function.  What I'm trying to do is create a form that when the visitor clicks submit, the data is emailed to me.  Can someone help me figure out how to accomplish this?
    Thanks so much!

    Ute's answer is spot on - you need a FormMail script to process the form.  Check with your host (or via the control panel) and see if they supply such a form for free.
    If not, google for "formail script' and you'll find quite a few available - all free to use.
    You just need to add a couple of lines to your html code, change a few things in the formmail script and the form will process.  Sounds complicated but most scripts come with a help file to help you get off the ground.

  • Stop Dreamweaver CS3 rewriting my code

    I dearly hope one of you lovely people can help me as this program is driving me nuts!
    I need to find a way of stopping Dreamweaver CS3 from rewriting my code. I know it's a good thing for it to check for errors (unclosed tags, etc) and I have no problem with that, but what I need to stop is the way Dreamweaver keeps running closing tags on to the end of the previous line!
    For example, I type:
    <div>
        <div>
            <a href="link">
                <img src="piccy" />
            </a>
        </div>
    </div>
    which is lovely and structured and, above all, easy to read, but as soon as I edit an element's propery, Dreamweaver makes it:
    <div>
        <div>
            <a href="link">
                <img src="piccy" />        </a>    </div>
    </div>
    which is so annoying!
    I've tried turning off all code rewriting in the preferences, but to no avail.
    Please can someone save what little hair I have left?
    Thanks in desperation
    Peter

    I guess my problem is not directly related to yours after all, as I discovered a hack to live with DW's bad behavior in my case. I found this when I used DW to try to collapse the tags that were getting fouled up and seeing it not know exactly what to do.
    The solution below tricks DW into thinking that my HTML tags are all nested properly, and it no longers rewrites the code in my CFC's function. Because nesting fixed it, I'm guessing the original poster's spacing issue is unrelated.
    Nevertheless, here's what I did:
    <cffunction ... >
        <cfset var strHTML = "">
            <!--- a memorable and always false condition --->
        <cfset var hellfreezesover = False>
        <cfsavecontent variable="strHTML">
        <ul>
            <li>first level
            <!--- Trick DW into submission --->
            <cfif hellfreezesover></li></ul></cfif>
            <cfloop ...>
                <!--- Trick DW into submission --->
                <cfif hellfreezesover><li></cfif>
                <cfif closeit>
                    </li>
                <cfelse>
                </cfif>
            </cfloop>
            <!--- Trick DW into submission --->
            <cfif hellfreezesover><ul><li></cfif>
            </li><!--- close last open li --->
        </ul>
        </cfsavecontent>
        <cfreturn strHTML>
    </cffunction>

  • Lines around type and other type/text problems in Dreamweaver CS3

    Dear Dreamweaver forum:
    Good news/bad news,
    First the good news…
    My thanks to a forum member by the name of Mylenium. With Mylenium's advice I have improved my halo problem by including a black background when I save type in Illustrator CS3 as part of importing it into Dreamweaver CS3.
    However, the bad news, is that I’m still having type and text problems.
    Problem area 1
    Now, in Dreamweaver, I’m getting lines appearing around the type.
    I am dragging and dropping the .gif type file into a Dreamweaver Div Tag.
    How do I get rid of the lines around the type so that they do not show up in the Safari browser?
    (Please see below)
    Problem area 2
    I cannot drag and drop text from a Word .doc file into a Dreamweaver div tag.
    I also cannot copy and paste Word .doc text into a div tag.
    How do I include text on my webpage without having to manually type it in?
    (Please see below)
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! 
    From within Dreamweaver CS3, how do I place text? Dragging and droppign the file does not work.
    This is screenshot of what I see so far when I use Safari to test what I have made so far in Dreamweaver CS3.
    I get lines around type.........not usually a good thing.........How do I fix it?
    The way I created the portfolio type in IllustratorCS3 using the File > Save for Web and Devices. I then imported the resulting .gif file so that it was within my root folder within the Files panel within Dreamweaver CS3.
    Am I doing this right?

    Hi
    The problems you are experiencing with the image text, (why are you using image text, these days?) is probably cause by the image having a border when created in illustrator, or the image size being set incorrectly.
    As for the word text if you are using windows, see http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/9.0/help.html?content=WSc78c5058ca073340dcda91 10b1f693f21-7ce6.html.
    On the mac it is a little more complex, save your word doc as html, then apply the 'clean up word html files', (see - http://livedocs.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/9.0/help.html?content=WSc78c5058ca073340dcda91 10b1f693f21-7ef5.html) copy the relevant text and mark-up from the word html file, and paste into your html document in the required position.

  • Code view not in synch with Design view (Dreamweaver CS3)

    Hello All,
    On my main work PC, I am running Dreamweaver CS3. When I am
    working in split view (with both Design and Code view visible) when
    I click on an element (say, a button) in Design view, the code view
    automatically shows me the code for the element that I am working
    on. That way, if I need to manually edit the code, I can click on
    the Code view and make the appropriate changes.
    On my laptop I am also running Dreamweaver CS3 However, when
    I am working in split view and I click on a element in Design view,
    my code view does NOT update itself and continues to show the last
    bit of code I was working on in Code view. While this could come in
    handy at times where i want design view and code view to show me
    two different things, I mostly would like code view to update
    automatically. Currently the only way I can get code view to update
    on my laptop is to hit the "refresh design view (F5)" button. Is
    there a way to do this automatically? Is this an option in
    Dreamweaver preferences because I don't see it anywhere.
    Thanks so much for your help.

  • IE shows code from dreamweaver CS3 after uploading

    Hi guys
    Need help.
    I have coded a site in Dreamweaver CS3 and after I upload through the automatic upload everything goes perfectly fine until I view the site online through Internet Explorer. Through all other browsers the website comes through fine ie Firefox, iron for PC and Mac etc. Its just the PC Internet Explorer that shows the actual code.
    This is my code:
    br />
    &#x2022 Resume / CV<br />
    <br />
    What it sows is the code of the dots (&#x2022) only.
    The link is http://www.naissant.ca/becomeadesigner.html
    Hope someone can help with the problem.
    Thanks

    Can't see any code in IE7, IE8 or IE9 at the link you supplied.......maybe you have fixed it?
    Correction I was looking for a bit more code. Change this &#x2022 to &bull;
    or add semi-colon after code ; as shown below (not sure if this is genuine as I have'nt use that particular code to produce a bullet point)
    &#x2022;
