Help needed (Photoshop work into Dreamweaver)

I am so sorry for my week knowledge. I just knew some starter commands in Dreamweaver or you can say some basic knowledge but here I am stuck and I need some serious help please.
I have used "Adobe Photoshop CS4" to create my website template and complete the slicing part, , , after that when I delete some unused little images in "Adobe Dreamweaver" and replace with the background color then there will some space came which gave a crap look to my website and unfortunately right now I can’t handle this one, what can I do to make it nice and less graphics to load it fast on any connection.

Edited with Dreamweaver:
http://gdesigner.110mb.com/update/editindex.html
here you can see the spaces above the "Great Resources" button. I can use the background color as the same but then the problem will be between the lines, you can see the center big box upper lines are broken, if you magnify your browser then you will definately see the broken/space area. how can I fix that. I will be really thankful to you all people.
Oh wow file sharing is allowed on this so I am uploading my work so you can more see where I am getting wrong. the zip file is almost 301kb.

hey there.
I'm pretty new to web design myself and I can definitely sympathize with the problems you're having; I created my first site using this method of creating a layout in Photoshop and slicing it up and all that. What resulted was a site that loaded really slow and was EXTREMELY hard to edit. The bottom line is, if you want to avoid these problems in the future you need to utilize CSS (cascading style sheets). I recommend O'Reilly's "CSS: The Missing Manual." Also check out this link to a tutorial on creating CSS-based layouts:
http://tutvid.com/tutorials/dreamweaver/tutorials/createCompleteCSSLayout.php
I'm sure there are several ways to fix your problem, but to be frank it's sort of a waste of time to create sites using the method you used.
Hope this helps,
-Evan

Sliced and imported photoshop layout into dreamweaver

First, I am a newbie to all of this web design stuff and
coding and dreamweaver. I wanted to create my first website so here
I am. I went through 2 different tutorials (youtube and on
lynda.com) I created a layout in photoshop and I also sliced it. I
imported it into dreamweaver (CS3 by the way).....I somewhat
understand what I am doing. I did all the defining a site and I
clicked on the content box that I sliced and deleted it and
inserted a div / added the image that go there, then I made that
area editable. The layout I imported I saved it as a
template.Anyway, so basically I am clicking on each sliced area,
deleting it, and inserting a div there. No problem. Now, the sliced
areas that has about, home, contact, etc.....those I needed to make
as links/clickable images. So, before performing the delete then
inserting a div part.....I first clicked on the sliced area then at
the bottom of the screen, where it says link, I did a point to
file, basically linked it. Now, when I preview it in the browser,
it displays boxes around the sliced navigation menu, which it is
nit suppose to. see here is a screen shot...
http://i36.tinypic.com/2eowewm.jpg
What did I do wrong? Why is it showing up in a table when I
didn't create it in a table? How can I remove that purple looking
table border?
Also, when I go to each of the sliced navigation menu, then
delete it and insert a div..... the image there...it will not let
me turn it into a link.
How do I turn my sliced navigation menu images into links. I
know I am doing something wrong but just don't know what it is. Is
there a code I can use or am I suppose to modify or insert
something? and how do I remove the box from around it?
What is an easy way? Is there a tutorial out there?
I want my layout to look like what I mocked up in photoshop.
Is there a way I can create the same layout in dreamweaver? The
problem isn't the background, it's trying to get the pink area in
the center of the lalayout. I didn't know how to do that so thats
why I tried the way of creating it in photoshop.
Please help

Regardless of what these tutorials lead you to believe, it is
the WRONG
approach. Read this to get some perspective -

How to put Photoshop templates into Dreamweaver

After purchasing templates and downloading, I discovered the
page layouts for the templates were Photoshop files. I made the
changes I wanted to make in Photoshop and now need to put in
Dreamweaver. There is a Flash file that is giving me error messages
when I open the index page. When I try to insert an image (the
page) it comes in a new window. I'm definitely not doing this
correctly.
Can anyone tell me how to insert them into
Dreamweaver?

Actually, I had forgotten about SiteGrinder. Its code is not
bad, to tell
you the truth. They have taken alot of trouble to make things
more stable
than a slap-dash, layer-based layout, but it is, to be sure
still strongly
rooted in absolute positioning. It might be an expedient way
to go, but
there is no substitute for some good HTML/CSS knowledge.

Help needed adding xml into website

I am looking for some help adding a few .xml files into my
website using Dreamweaver
First ..I would like to add the following RDS.xml file below.
I would like it to go into a box that is 100 x 100 px
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <Playing station="HAWK">
- <item type="MUS">
<DateTime>Thu 10:52AM</DateTime>
<Cart />
<Artist>THE ROLLING STONES</Artist>
<SongTitle>JUMPIN' JACK FLASH</SongTitle>
</item>
</Playing>
Second ..an event.xml file that will scroll info with box
dimensions of 400 px w x 30 px h.
Both xml files would be on my site in a user_files folder
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Rob

It means that you can't just plop in XML in the middle of
your HTML. Your
pages are HTML, so the XML needs to be transformed in to HTML
first. There
are various ways to do this. Are you using PHP? ASP? Etc.
Once we know that,
we can narrow down a solution for you.

Advice/Help needed migrating/working with two macs

I currently own a mid-2010 (I think) Macbook Pro and a couple of months ago I bought a Mac Mini. Unfortunately when I set up the Mac Mini I was short on time and my excitement/lack of patience got the better of me so I copied everything on the HDD from my MBP over to the Mac Mini and I have been using the same profile to login on both machines.
This causes a few problems, particularly when I'm trying to connect the two machines via a network to share files. They can never connect, I'm thinking probably because they're using the same profile and get confused. I also haven't taken the time to properly install all the applications and so some do not work on the mini.
Rather than trying to pull my hair out trying to solve the issues, I think I've reached a point where I think I need to either start over or get some advice on what to do.
Ideally I'd like to use the Mini mainly for music apps (Garageband, possibly Logic Pro X in the future) and occassional internet and iTunes use. Since it has a bigger HDD, I'd like to store my music on the Mini.
I would then use the MBP as my general internet and iTunes machine. I would however like to be able to use it for music production stuff (again GB and/or Logic) if I am travelling. I know that I will need to upgrade the OS and the RAM which I am happy to do.
I would like to be able to have most of the same apps on both machines and also be able to easily transfer files, music etc. between the two.
So in light of what I'd like to achieve, what would be my best course of action? Would I be best to start over and try to migrate from fresh or can I make something work with what I have?
A further complication is that I have since used both machines so I will have some new stuff saved on both machines that won't be on the other. Is there any way to keep these new files if I start over?
Would anyone be gracious enough to point me in the direction of an easy to follow guide to help me achieve what I want?
Sorry for the long-winded post (and if I've posted in the wrong section) but I really think I lept into the migration without really knowing what I was doing and I could really use some advice to help me work out what to do!

With your project open, press Shift + Q to open System Settings.
Where are your render files being stored to? The path should be pointing to your external. I'm betting that it's set to your system drive instead.

Help needed in working with Excel

i have a ms excel template with n number of columns.
I need to add a new column using sql code. Can anyone tell me what is the code??? thx in advance...

Erm i tink the final db is excel and no more.
the db given to me is in excel and i can do whatever with it but the final output have to be in excel.
( i initially imported the excel db to access and everything is out running fine. But as i wont be using the application after i had it out. So i thought it would be better to allow it to work on excel thus saving the trouble of importing and exporting)
I have to work with a few db(all excel) and they each contains 40 000 - 80 000 records...(i dun knw if that is considered small or large)
I have limited knowledge on access macros and sql and the knowledge i had on them does not permit me to carry out the operations i wan.(and im required to develop an application with GUI)
thx for all helps and comments guyz...

HELP needed in working with established InDesign catalog

I have just inherited the job of up keep and editing of our catalog. The entire catalog is on InDesign cs5. I have never worked with any InDesign programs. It looks to me like the entire thing was done in individual text boxes, I am at a loss as to were to begin, can anyone recommend a tutorial to get me started. I have looked and did not find what I needed.

I like the Visual Quickstart Guides to get to know a new program - lots of pics, captions and tips - besides wordy explanations.
Also indesignsecrets.com for tips once you know the program better - and their pdf magazine - they are quite happy to point out bugs and workarounds. I always find Adobe resources hide the shortcomings and tell you everything is perfect - until the next version of the software where they tell you it wasn't but have now fixed it!
(I have no ties to the above)
This forum seems the most active (and helpful) for sorting individual problems.

Help Needed with Work Flow

Hi all
I am very new at this. I got a new task to fix an existing Work Flow. The portion that needs to be fixed is: it shoots an e-mail to get approval when a changed rate is greater then its Standard rate. Now the problem is there are multiple standard rate for a single entry. So we need to pick the lowest one from all the entry for that record.
So I need to insert a loop where it picks the standard rate. but i can't figure out how to tell the loop to end when there are no more standard rate for that record and also pick the minimum one.
I am not sure these description is enough or not.
If not please let me know what else you need to know.
thanks

Anyone? Bueller?
Ah well, I knew that I probably was cutting into some newer territory here...
Once I get it figured out, I'll post what I've learned about this activity for everyone to share.
Cheers,
Mike

Help Needed Importing XML into a Database

Hi:
I'm new to Appleworks databases. I would like to create a database by importing records from a large XML file containing thousands of records. Is there a user's guide (or something else) I could read to help me do this? I have the schema for the XML file.
Thanks,

I'm new to Appleworks databases. I would like to
create a database by importing records from a large
XML file containing thousands of records. Is there a
user's guide (or something else) I could read to help
me do this? I have the schema for the XML file.
AppleWorks is a flat-file database and not a relational database. It will import ASCII text files ie tab-delimited data (TSV file format).
You need to write an XSL template to convert your XML data into a TSV or CSV. I'd be surprised if there already wasn't the basics of a XSL template that could do this on Google.

Help - need to download previous Dreamweaver

I am in school and they use Dreamweaver 5.5. I downloaded Creative Cloud with the understanding that I would be able to retrieve Dreamweaver 5.5, but have been unable to find it or figure out how. Any clues out there???

Question- can I download and install 12, which is what my school is teaching, and get rid of 13? All on the same account? I am not sure of the process.
I have a student CC membership, and was doing fine until DW updated to 13 and I lost 1/3 of my options, having to waste precious time finding workarounds, since Adobe has provided no reasoning or input for the changes. I rather liked 12
You can have both installed under the same subscription.
Is your school teaching DWCS5.5 (version 11.5) as you mention in your original post, DWCS6 Disk version (version 12.0x) or DWCS6 Cloud (version 12.1x)?
All of them have some pretty big differences and are significantly different from DWCC (at least in menu options).
Check the versions by going to Help > About Dreamweaver.
DWCS6 Cloud (version 12.1x) is a totally separate program from DWCC (version 13.x) and doesn't get upgraded to 13 automatically by any kind of update. If you are suddenly using DWCC, look in your Program Files (x86) folder for a Dreamweaver CS6 folder. They can both be installed at the same time, they just won't run at the same time, so you might already have the program you're looking for installed.
There is also a fair amount of info in the Adobe blog giving the reasoning for the major changes to the program. Basically it boils down to internet standards and modernizing the program to fit what professional designers and coders need to produce to fit those standards.

Help needed in inserting into column of XML type

i have requirement of inserting data into column of xml type
eg
cust product cost
1 a 3
1 b 7
1 c 5
now required result should
<PROD-LIST>
<a>3</a>
<b>7</b>
<c>5</c>
</PROD-LIST>
Please let me know how to achieve this , i was trying write function , it was working for one values ,but how to do if many values exist .

Take a deep breath, then retype this putting in all the words and punctuation you missed out the first time until it makes sense.
Your sample data, for example, could be better formatted using the [pre] and [/pre] tags to preserve formatting and put in a table format. Similarly with your output. Why are two of the numbers floating around freely in your xml but the 3rd isn't?

Help needed to log into an Open Directory account which has the same username as the local account

Hello,
I have successfully setup a Mac OS X Lion Server and it is an Open Directory Master. On the server Ihave created an account with the name 'Connor'. I have numerous Macs (allrunning OS X 10.7 Lion) connected to this server but on one of the Macs thereis a local account with the name 'Connor' too (the local and networked accountshave different passwords). I want to log into the Open Directory account onthat mac. So, I have done an authenticated bind to the server, but when I go tolog in the password box shakes. I think the computer thinks I am trying to loginto the local account and not the Open Directory account. On Windows, I canlog into either the local accounts or the networked accounts by typing\LOCAL-COMPUTER-NAME\Connor. So, I was wondering if there was a similar commandto do this on Mac.
I don't think I haveworded this very well, so if someone doesn't understand please ask me somequestion about the problem and I will try and explain it better.
Any help would be greatlyappreciated,
Connor

Maybe I didn't make myself clear. I have used directory utility to do an authenticated bind to my server. I also have no problem logging into other accounts in the Open Directory. But, I just can't log into the account which has the same name both in the Open Directory and locally.
Was there something I missed in Directory Utility? Could you please help me if this is so.
Thanks for replying so quickly

Help needed - creating site in dreamweaver with swfs

Hi
I am attempting to make a website in dreamweaver, with
animated swf files for the banner and buttons. My problem is with
the sizes.
I want to get all of the buttons next to each other, with
little or no gaps.
I've tried making a table and putting each button in a
different column, but there are still massive gaps.
The other problem is to do with the web browser, I think.
I want it to be like most sites, if the user dosent have the
page full screen, the banner and buttons will resize so that the
user can see all of the site, normally until you have squashed the
browser halfway.
For example, when you drag the corners of a swf file while it
is playing, the image resizes so you can see the whole of it, no
matter how small you make the application.
I want my imported swf file in dreamweaver to resize if the
user does not have the web browser full size.
For example, if you have your browser in windowed mode now,
drag the sides so that the application is squashed, you can still
see the post and the banner, it resizes automatically.
I have attatched all of my files in a zip on
