Help, photoshop website to dreamweaver

Please help, I am not sure if I am even using the right
software. I made a complete website in photoshop, layers and all,
when i import it into dreamweaver, I cannot seem to edit it by
adding text overtop? Cannot type text over the images of my
photoshop file that I imported. What is the easiest/fastest method
on going from photoshop to web?
I want to be able to edit / update changes to my site without
going all the way back to photoshop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
thanks

If this is how you are going to create your websites, then
investigate "Site
Grinder" a commercial product that will create the entire
page/site for you.
If you aren't going to use something like that, then you are
just going to
have to learn some HTML to move you into the realm of *real*
web page
development rather than putting an image only page on the
web, which is what
you are describing.
How can we help you do that?

Please help! adding a search to website with Dreamweaver

confused;
Hi all. i need some help. Im in the process of creating my
website on Dreamweaver CS3. I would like to have a "search" option
on my site.....
I will explain my situation.....stay with me!.......
My website is basically a dating website. So, i need a sercg
function so members can SEARCH for people in there area...
Heres an example. of the search I need....
LOOKING FOR -- MALE OR FEMALE (select box for male or female)
AREA - North West, north east, midlands, etc etc (drop down
box)
PROXIMITY - 5mile, 10 mile, 25 mile etc (drop down box)
AGE - 18-25, 25-30, 30-45 etc (drop down box)
OKay...so i guess you have the idea of what im talking
about...i hope..... I KNOW how to set the table up for the above
(using the FORMS tab on dreameaver)
What I do need to know is - How do i program my website to
return the correct results.
example...... Mr. Smith is looking for a women, within 5miles
of his postcode. he clicks search....HOW DO I GET THE WEBSITE TO
RETURN HIS REQUESTS. Do i need to buy some sort of software???
Hope you can help!!!!
Jemma xxxxxxxxxx

I'm afraid that in order to get reasonable search results for
a dating type service, you are going need to do some programming.
This means that along with solid html and css, you need to be adept
at server side script programming and SQL programming. Have you
already create the database? What kind of database design
experience do you have? Seems like you are building a rather
complex site and without the proper skills you will be facing a
rather steep learning curve. You may want to think about hiring an
experienced programmer if you want to get a quality site going in a
reasonable amount of time.
I don't know of any off-the-shelf packages out there that may
exist for a dating type service so you may want to search around a
bit.

How do I get my bridge web gallery to actually work in my photoshop website

Hi
Can anyone explain to me in simple english (please - as I'm just a learner) how I get my web gallery (created in bridge) to work with my photoshop website.
This is what I have done so far:-
(1) I've created my root folder called 'test'. It has 3 subfolders called:-
- 'page1' (which is my homepage created as said below)
- 'page2-gallery' (where I want my bridge web gallery to be)
- 'page3-other' (for another page link - not important here).
(2) I have also created a simple website in photoshop (my homepage said above), using the slice tool and have saved it by saveforweb. So I now have my html website file and which works when tested online. One of the slice segments is for my 'gallery' icon on the homepage which, when clicked, should go directly to my bridge web gallery created.
(3) I have also created a web gallery in bridge and I saved it applying the 'savelocation' as being in page2 of my root folder. But when I checked it online the 'gallery' icon on my homepage does nothing. I then tried saving the gallery to my root folder instead (i.e. not in the page2 of my root folder) but with zero results.
(4) I've then dragged the root folder's html file (my website's homepage) into dreamweaver, clicked the 'gallery' icon and tried to apply the page2 of my root folder file to the properties inspector's link box (bottom of dreamweaver workspace) - but this wouldn't work either.
I know that I must be close to solving this riddle and so can anyone help me please.

IS THERE ADOBE PHOTOSHOP CS+ AND DREAMWEAVER

HEY EVERYONE,
I am going to be working on some websites for the first time and want to know if there is adobe Photoshop CS + and Dreamweaver available for Mac and is so where is the best place to purchase them(best price). Also, Is there alternatives to the two programs that are compatible with word press and are free or cost less. Thanks as always for your knowledge and help.

What Michael means, google "Adobe Creative Cloud" - that will take you to the place where you subscribe to the Adobe suite of apps (including PhotoShop and Dreamweaver, for many hundreds of $$ per year), IIRC around $500/year to use these apps.

How Does One Modify Photoshop Templates in Dreamweaver

I posted this over on the Photoshop forum, but no one has
replied. It is a hybrid sort of question.
I've been trying to modify the Horizontal Neutral template of
the Web Photo Gallery in Photoshop CS using Dreamweaver MX (v.6.1)
on my G5 running Tiger and am almost there. Aside from the overall
design (fonts and colors) I really like the interface of this
particular gallery with a horizontal slider to quickly scroll
through images, that when selected, appear in large form in the
center of the page. But I need to customize it to get it to match
the feel of my site.
My problem: I'm trying to point to a gif file that is part of
my website image library as my background. I want the Horizontal
Neutral Gallery to float in that image background. But, I can't
seem to get the background image to appear where it is supposed to.
I've gone into the various components of the template
(FrameSet, SubPage, etc.) and by duplicating the files and
modifying the code, I am able to get the background image to appear
within the tables that make up the navigation and image gallery
components. But, I've not been able to get the image to appear as
the background itself.
I'd even be happy to simply have the entire Horizontal
Neutral Gallery float in the middle of one of my own pages with the
image file as a background if it is possible, but can't seem to
even get it to do that. How does one access the code that controls
the background image in this template or the script that generates
these galleries?
Thanks in advance!

The reason the that the edit button ( - ) top righthand corner had 'disappeared', was that iCloud was enabled but that the Addressbook subsetting under iCloud was set to off in the phone settings.
Changing it to 'on' made the edit button reappear.
Thanks to the guys in Cambridge Apple Store!!

After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file.

After the latest Security Update 2012-001 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) my Adobe Photoshop CS 8, Dreamweaver 8, and InDesign CS programs crash when I try to save a file. HELP!!!

Howdy,
Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
You might wish to read:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
- You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
- Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
- Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
- Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.
Links for 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1:

Adding dynamic images to your website using Dreamweaver

Hi
I've been working on a website which has been in use by public for some months now.
I recently wanted to add a simple product catelogue. I can do this just by creating my database connection and using the recordsets.
However I wanted to add an image thumbnail to each product record.
I found the above topic in the Adobe Help 'Adding dynamic images to your website using Dreamweaver'
What I really would like to know is what exactly is put in the image_location field of the table, how is this field populated and then how to view the picture.
I have tried, as per instructions, but the picture is not showing.
I use php as I dont know coldfusion, but I'm sure the process must be pretty similar.
If anyone can shed some light then that would be really appreciated.
Many thanks liz

As most anyone else will say, so I will say; *please don't

automatically!*
Playing music on a site is fine, but making it play
automatically when you
go to the site will alienate lots of people; especially those
having a quick
web surf at work or who have other music on whilst they're
working.
But back to your question; have a look at the XSPF music
player
http://musicplayer.sourceforge.net/).
It comes in different visual versions
(can modify it with a bit of Flash knowledge), allows you to
select
different songs or just leave it looping, or you can just
loop one song. And
yes, you can make it start automatically.

is used (on the inside pages)

Unable to Uninstall Photoshop CS4 and Dreamweaver CS4

it's been a couple of days since i tried out Photoshop CS4 and Dreamweaver CS4 to see how they compare to the CS3 versions, it worked fine and all till suddenly it stopped working, so i been trying to uninstall/reinstall to get it working under the free trial limit i still have left (27 days as of this writing) it still will not work.
Sometimes i would install Photoshop/Dreamweaver and say an error occurred and some components were unable to install and would be unable to load the file even after doing what the instructions say...
Same goes for when i try to uninstall both Photoshop/Dreamweaver, i would try to uninstall and would still remain in my program files...
I am completely stumped on what to do, i can't even re-install photoshop/dreamweaver cs3 as well due to this...
I am running on Vista 32bit SP1 Pack on HP Pavilion, i want to completely get rid of CS4 versions and go back to my reliable CS3 again, any help please would be greatly appreciated.
Kantori

John... if you read what I said you would of caught that i did do it:
"did what was suggested, worked like a charm for the CS3 and Dreamweaver CS4 but although it did work on Photoshop CS4. it did something i was dumbfounded to see, it did something odd in which it took out the Uninstall/Change tab option for removing programs (I was viewing it to see if it uninstalled completely) also it brought out a bunch of programs that weren't in that section before and was unable to uninstall/remove them.
So i had to do a system restore point to go back and try again. After doing it two more times (ya two!) still doesn't work, i am 7 hours into trying to resolve this... sigh. "
At that time i said i had done it 2 times, 3 in total, i am on try #6 all with the same results with the exact after effects once i restart my PC.
Here's what it does to tell what goes on:
1) after installing microsoft's cleaner then opening up the cs4 cleaner under admin, it does its thing, it asks me if i wish to remove Flash Player 10 after choosing remove Photoshop CS4, now here i done both remove Flash Player and not remove it with the same results, losing the uninstall/change option on the control panel, which frustrates me.
2) After seeing that i try to install Photoshop CS4 again, once its done, i open it up, try to go to the trial option where as i stated previously says there's an error and can't open the trial page which would open up Photoshop completely but since it can't i cannot go beyond that window.
3) So ya... i try ONCE again to do it all over after restarting and SAMETHING! no uninstall/change option appearing and unable to open up Photoshop CS4 in which i resort to doing a system restore again and trying once more.
NOW, one would think that after the first 3 times it should be working properly, i mean I thought it would after removing both Photoshop CS3 and Dreamweaver CS4 it's bound to do the same for Photoshop CS4, but it doesn't completely create a "FREASH" install. It's like it still remembers what messed up functions it still had and what's up with it removing the uninstall/change option? that just bogles my mind.
i tried many things, re-downloading the trial from adobe, etc i never would of thought just one program could cost me so much wasted time just to get it working and it's a free trial nonetheless so excuse me John Joslin if your remark kind of bugs me, I need some assistance/advice on trying to correct this problem, not a
"It should have done!
Run it a few times. "
comment that's already common knowledge for me in what I have already been doing long before your post.

Need help importing files into Dreamweaver CS5.5

Greetings,
Currently I have website that is hosted on GoDaddy.com http://www.4thdist.org/home.php . This site was created by another person that is not available to help with my problem. I am attempting to modify or edit this website using Dreamweaver CS5.5 and having difficulties loading the files into Dreamweaver.
First, using Filezilla I downloaded all the files and folders to my PC. At this point, I am stuck and cannot figure out how to upload or open the files and really need some advice. I read the Adobe help section on "importing" and it describes a .ste file. I searched the download folder and cannot find any file (*.ste)
I am hoping to salvage the site and not have to reinvent the wheel and start over. Any advice would be extrmely helpful........Gary

Thanks for the quick reply.
Your comments raised some new questions. Let me update all on where I am. First, I am able to connect to GoDaddy server via the the local and remote views in the bottom right corner of DW. I see the file folder structure on GoDaddy. I can also see the file structure on my local hardrive that I copied using filezilla. Although, using the server connection I notice that I can download the files using this connection now. Should I delete what I did via filezilla and start over using the romote server connection? One more problem. I have content for two (2) websites on the remote server. http://www.vfwstatepoolleague.org/ This is in addition to the listed in my original post. Although, it appears the other website content is in a seperate folder. I assume that I will need to separtate this content somehow. At least link to it when I begin to start to create a .ste file for each site.
I started to read the article "Creating your first website"in your post and should be very helpful. I did run into a little road block.
I created (2) site names and linked to the appropriate folder on my hard drive. Although, I do not have: "check_cs5" folder on my local or remote folder. What does that mean? Should I create one?

There is a major color shift in my artwork image from the photoshop jpeg to dreamweaver - it gets 'g

There is a major color shift in my artwork image from the photoshop jpeg to dreamweaver - it gets 'grayed out', loses color contrast. I checked in Bridge and the color settings are synchronized. The image in photoshop is just like what i get from my Nikon D90 camera. The grayed out image has also been noted by two of my professional printer co. which i use but one of my printers - Modern Postcard - the images in photoshop are perfect. I just need to know what causes the color shift and how to control/manage it, thank you, Kathyrn

I have noted color shifts as well and have come to a few observations.
When you are making a .JPG file and you are trying to make a color in that file be the same color as your website's background, you're going to get a lot of failures. Photoshop will add color information in an ICC file in the meta information in the file if you like. That tends to produce actual colors, but they do not fit a web gamut.
The way I generally deal with images that need high quality is that I use the Save for Web and Other Devices exclusively, either ticking on or off the ICC profile for JPEG files and working with what works best. Saving a JPEG with as much information as is possible is usually the best choice but, since JPEG is a "lossy" compression scheme, you are always going to get some issues.
Additionally, the web browser in question will have control over what is displayed as well.
So try playing with the ICC profile in Photoshop's Save for Web And Other Devices and see if you can't get things a little more reliable.

How to easily layout a website in Dreamweaver???

I am having trouble laying out my website in dreamweaver. I have tried first using fireworks then importing to dreamweaver but it only imports as an image and I have also tried the table-ing method. To be honest, I'm a beginner and I don't know how to work with codes. I did work with them a few years back but I cannot recall how to use them. Can someone please help me find a simple way to layout my website with flexibility or at least more flexi that dreamweaver initially provides.
Thankss!!

Coding is a necessity if you are serious about getting into web design. And Dreamweaver is not really a beginner's tool. Adobe is trying to develop a tool called Muse ( http://muse.adobe.com ) which is currently available as a beta, but will be subscription only after it is released.
Otherwise, I think the best place to point you is this tutorial showing how to go from a Fireworks layout into Dreamweaver.
