Help with iWeb page...

Hello out there in Cyberland...
I need some assistance...My Site (which was created in iWeb 3) does not completely work in Safari but works like a charm in Chrome. My Blog Page "Projects" will load ocassionally but if you go back to it after viewing another page...all of the entries have dissappeared!!! I switched Safari to 32 bit thinking this would help...no dice...please assist me if you can. I have also tried to update the Blog.js and have emptied the Safari Cache many times...all to no avail.
My site is www.kmpstudioproductions.com
I am running Safari 6 on Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E53)
Please ADVISE!!!
Thanks
KMP Studio Productions

Your site still works OK for me in Safari.
Reset Safari, quit, relaunch and then enter your website URL with a ? at the end of it.
So many people test their iWeb sites in Safari and there is hardly much point in doing so...
For testing local files, you should either set Firefox as your default browser or Chrome if you publish the files to your local server.
I have had problems with Safari 6 not clearing the cache properly. If you really make it jump through hoops it spins its wheels and locks up.
It is such a piece of c*#p I don't hardly use it all now and, judging by the above stats, neither does anybody else! Worry about IE instead.

I'm not sure I've got a grasp on the issue you are having but let me give it a try
Website A is finished and you have uploaded it to the Internet, so it is LIVE.
You make a copy of Website A, and call it Website B, then make all required changes.
IF you uploaded Website B, then it is likely you will overwrite Website A. You must instead, upload Website B as a separate Website.
To publish to a new site:
Click Publish.
Then click the expansion triangle left of Options.
Change Publish To setting to New Site
fill out rest of required details, and click OK to publish.
You'll now have two separate web-sites.
If you need to link between them, use absolute hyperlinks (the full URL).
Hope this helps.

Iweb FTP,Printing probems with Iweb .Pages to Web

I feel like writing Steve Jobs.Problems -I had Iweb 08 , upgraded to Iweb09 because of the press how FTP was solved. I cannot upload to my server. I have spent hours talking to Apple Care reps.I have tried several FTP softwares other than Iweb.One rep told me they do have a problem with FTP out of Iweb to Microsoft base servers.Solution given and tried - first publish to a folder on the desktop and burn a cd for the host provider.Does not work. Next publish to documents and burn a CD and still garbage on the CD for my host provider. I have images and get the message"can't create the file shapeimage- 2png and the results all my images that are referenced as Fig 1 and so on well the figures get place all over and not in the proper location on all the CD burnt. So I cannot publish to the host. Second as of today and after two hours talking to Apple Care with Iweb, I have lessons as lesson 1 2 3 and so on. Well the lessons show up in full in view , but when i go to print if the lesson is 15 pages it will only show 9 in the preview print window and only print 9 pages but viewing the lesson in Iweb all pages show up as all 15. I tried all the recommendations from Apple Care . They do not know why the problem exist. They said maybe with Iweb 09 they limit how many pages you can have in a text box? They have no written notes that this is the case though. I think the problem has to do with something related to in preview it shows the pages as being PDF now when it scroll through the preview showing the pages and maybe this somehow as a default will not allow printing all pages. So I have 15 pages to print out in Iweb and when I go to print it previews and stops at page 9, but the remaining pages still there to view in Iweb. Page allows me to send the info in Iweb out now but it excludes the images so sort of messy. It did not allow this s before . I upgraded to Iweb 09 and have Pages 08, and bet if I install Pages 09 I wont be able to send anything from Iweb to Pages. They do allow you to send information from Pages to Iweb so why not the reverse?My last though is to send from Iweb to Pages, do the massive amount of images again but in Pages and then can I send this as PDF to a Microsoft server and get my website up and running. The problem is not my host it is Apple. FTP does not work ? I have intel chips . Any way to exit Iweb to go to a Microsoft server some clever way here?The monster problem with Iweb is that if you want even a small business everyone has to have the same password so if you want access limited to maybe paying subscribers forget it . Everyone has to be given the same password access so they can pass the password around and every is there for free. Anyone know of a tag on product to handle E-mail password allocation instead of hiring a heavy PHP programmer?. Still going to have a host out of Iweb and this seems impossible. Any help from the knowledgeable - 25 hours wasted so far here.

I'm turning your post into paragraphs so I (and other peiople) can actually understand it:

So from what I can make out, your problems are:
1. Uploading to FTP/publishing
2. Printing
3. iWeb and Pages use
4. Password protection in iWeb
Ok, so for a website you don't want to be burning things to CD or converting a whole site into PDF format. You want individual webpages with proper formats. There's little point in exporting from iWeb to Pages because if you want the webpage info on paper, you print it. If you want to send it to someone, you send them your webpage address. (However, copying from Pages to iWeb is useful for easy publishing from existing documents or drafts).
Your print preview may be a problem, but as long as everything's printed it doesn't make any difference? Not sure what you're trying to say here, and not sure why you're printing webpages anyway? You can take screenshots of your webpage if that's easier.
It sounds like you are trying to cram far too much information in. Try uploading a very simple page with a couple of lines of text via FTP and see if that works. Which webhost are you using, or are you doing it all on an internal server? If you are, I recommend trying to use the web to upload something just to check.
iWeb isn't designed for businesses, and in fact is against Apple's terms of service. It sounds like you really need to employ someone who knows what they're doing. If you don't want to spend the money on a programmer, try hiring a couple of university students studying business/IT, or at least have a temp to consult and tell you what you need. It sounds like you've got yourself into a real tangle.

Help with custom page size support for non standard paper

Firstly, we appreciate any support you may be able to provide, we have already thrown considerable effort at this and it has been very time consuming and frustrating.
To support a number of business functions need to print to (non standard) continuous and mulitpart paper on a dot matrix printer. The (test) Mac is a 10.4.11 G4 laptop, the printer is an Oki Microline 520 (9 pin 80 column, IBM Proprinter, Microline or Epson FX personalities with a parallel interface) which has been networked via a HP JetDirext Ex Plus print server. That part appears to be operating correctly.
We have tried a number of drivers / printer personalities with varying levels of success:
ESP / EPSON 9-Pin Series CUPS v1.1 / Epson FX personality
ESP / OKIDATA 9-Pin Series CUPS v1.1 / Oki Microline personality
Ghostscript / epsonc / Epson Dot Matrix Foomatic PPD / Epson FX personality
Ghostscript / ibmpro / IBM ProPrinterII Foomatic PPD / IBM Proprinter personality
Ghostscript / okiibm / Oki Microline IBM compatible 9 pin Foomatic PPD / IBM Proprinter personality
There were no appropriate drivers in Gutenprint (5.2.3 version) The most successful is the okiibm / Oki Microline IBM compatible 9 pin settings, it can print A4 and honors the Printer Features Resolution settings in the print dialogue.
Q1: Should we see anything in the Printer Info / Installable Option, it is always blank ?
The issue is custom page sizes, we can manage / add Custom Pages Sizes via the Page Setup / Paper Size interface and they draw on the screen OK but they do not work at the printer (various issue at the printer such error messages, junk printing and wrong orientation):
Q2: Are we heading in the right direction or is there a better way to handle this ?
Q3: Would 10.5 solve all our problems, are the print drivers any better ?
Q4: Is this the correct way to specify custom page sizes, is this all we need to do ?
Q5: Is so how do we get the driver to respect the size, do we need another filter or something ?
Q6: Is it possible to add (by hand) custom page sizes to the ESP drivers or Foomatic PPD files so they they appear as a "standard" offering in the Page Setup / Paper Size interface ?
Sorry for the long / complicated post and thanks in advance for any advice / assistance.

Testing on 10.5.7, Tried both Oki 9-Pin Series 1.3 / Microline personality (no joy) and Epson 9-Pin Series 1.3 (this is a much better driver than 1.1) / Epson FX personality but not much joy with custom page sizes,
The Oki 9-pin Series 1.3 and the Epson 9-Pin Series 1.3 should produce the same results. The only difference in the PPDs is the printer model name.
After some testing, I find that the output is not the same despite the two PPDs being virtually identical. I did spot in the CUPS source code for the rastertoepson filter that there is some model name matching for Epson printers. Thus I can see where the output using the Oki 9-pin PPD could be different than when using the Epson 9-pin PPD.
but again once I imbedded the page size into the ppd some (but frustrating) luck. I can get it to respect the paper orientation and it prints well but I could not get the form length to work properly. At best over a print run of 7 labels it would creep up the label by about 0.1 inches / 2 mm.
Just for the fun of it, I made some additions to the Epson 9-pin 1.3 PPD. All I can say is that I could print a job to file. I have no way to know what it would look like on paper.
I did find that using a custom paper size did add some unwanted margins to the output bounding box. Putting the custom page size into the PPD seemed to get around that issue.
I added the following lines to the Epson 9-pin PPD 1.3--
<pre style="overflow: auto;font-size:small; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; color: #222; background: #ddd; padding: .3em .8em .3em .8em; font-size: 9px;">*PageSize Label1/Label1: "<</PageSize[288 107.8]/ImagingBBox null>>setpagedevice"
*PageRegion Label1/Label1: "<<PageSize[288 107.8]/ImagingBBox null>>setpagedevice"
*ImageableArea Label1/Label1: "0 0 288.00 107.80"
*PaperDimension Label1/Label1: "288.00 107.80"</pre>
This adds a paper size with the 4 inch (288pt) width and 1.5 inch (107.8pt) height. That represents the 1.4 inch label and the 0.1 inch gap between labels. I set 0pt margins except for the bottom where is set the 0.1 inch (7pt) gap as the bottom margin.
The full diff in context is--
<pre style="overflow: auto;font-size:small; font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace; color: #222; background: #ddd; padding: .3em .8em .3em .8em; font-size: 9px;">loki:~ matt$ diff -u /usr/share/cups/model/epson9.ppd ~/Desktop/epson9.ppd

Help with iWeb domain

Hi like many I am suffering from the Iweb problem of being unable to open domain files with iweb.
I'm using Lion latest version etc..
Im currently on the road away from my main machine..where my original site is..
I DO have my Time Machine external drive with me..
was wondering can i locate the same domain file that i use on my home mac on my time machine external drive?
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..
I did manage to try Domain cracker which opened an older version of my domain but would not save any changes..
I hope someone can help..
Its a shame iweb isnt being used by Apple anymore many of the design functions are similar to ibook author and other stuff etc..
Its easy to use..i dont want to go to wordpress and other web editors are at this time cumbersome..
anyhow any suggestions on omy question would be greatly appreciated..

Read this topic :
Can't Open domain files
Then locate the domain file in Time Machine.
Its a shame iweb isnt being used by Apple anymore many of the design functions are similar to ibook author and other stuff etc..
Yes, a lot of functions are similar. Have been since 1984 with the introduction of Word processing and DTP applications. I consider myself lucky I was around at that time. Now I can apply most of the functions in current day applications.

Help with iWeb single file support

Hi all. I'm trying to make a single file document with html support to use as a cover letter for potential employers, I understand that .mhtml is not supported, is there an alternative so I can combine my entire site into a single file for easy distribution?

Open iWeb and go and publish your site from iWeb to your desktop and you then have one site folder, an index.html file and the assets file. Ditch the index and assets file and then you are just left with one site folder that has everything in it - so for a one page site you will have an index.html file, your one page.html and your one page folder, which contains the CSS for that page.
Burn this one site folder onto a DVD or however you want to distribute the site and both Mac and PC user will be able to open it with Safari, IE etc. As it is an html page it will open in a browser, so PC users will be able to see it.
If you were sharing your site with other Mac users, you could distribute the domain.sites file and other Mac users could then open this with iWeb, but it then depends on what version they have too - if you have made your site with iWeb 09 and they have iWeb 08, then they would not be able to open the domain file, as iWeb is not backward compatible.
Probably best to publish the site and distribute one site folder which everyone can get access to.

Help with dynamic page layouts

Hello JSP Gurus,
I'm attempting to dynamically generate the page layout for my site based on the organization a user belongs to. Basically, I'd have certain resources like navigation links, graphics, etc, that are modular. Then I'd like to construct the layout using these "moduls" in a dynamic fashion. Does anyone have any suggestions on techniques or technologies that would be useful? I'm not really looking at the portal/portlet model. Is this something that Cocoon could do by storing the layout for each customer as an XML file or something? Any ideas, suggestions, experiences would be helpful.
Thanks!

How does Tiles differ from the JetSpeed apache
project? They both appear to be portal-like
frameworks, or am I incorrect about that? Which is
preferred?Frankly, I can't give you an in-depth answer to that. Maybe someone else can help with more details.
What I can tell you is that JetSpeed seems to be more of a real portal architecture. Emphasis is placed on the framework portion, interfacing with exisiting applications. Visual layout takes second seat to this.
Tiles on the other hand puts more emphasis on visual layout and reuse.
Just looking at JetSpeed's visual interfacing a little bit makes me really dislike it. You build tables and such inside of a servlet, so there's a tight coupling (or at least, much tighter than with Struts/Tiles) between the presentation and logic. (I'm basing this on a JavaWorld article at
http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/jw-07-2001/jw-0727-jetspeed.html )
Based on your initial question, it would seem to me that tiles is much closer to what you're looking for (and likely easier to just pick up and use).
Anyway, take all this with a grain of salt; I'm not exactly an expert on JetSpeed. =)

Help with iWeb for reader comments.

How do I create a place for reader comment/blogs on my site? I use iWeb.

If you're hosting your iWeb blog on a non-MobileMe server you'll lose the following features:
Features Unavailable When Publishing to a 3rd Party Server:
◼ Password protection
◼ Blog and photo comments
◼ Blog search
◼ Hit counter
Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two feature will be broken.
You can add 3rd party commenting to your iWeb blog with one of these; DISQUS, IntenseDebate or Echo. Or, if you're just starting out with a new blog use one of the established blogging sites and embed it into one of your iWeb pages as in this demo page: Embed a Site Within an iWeb Page

Help with iWeb

I just built my first website with iWeb and am looking for feedback. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.
http://www.educatedroofingsystems.com

Hey there,
You have some interesting elements, but the site could use a little work on focusing what reaction and response you are trying to get from your visitors. If the site is intended to be a basic, un-intimidating web based business card, then you could call it a success. If you want to engage your potential customers and clients, you might ask yourself how intriguing is the site to serving the questions in the mind of your clientele visitor. On that side of things, I would say the site needs a little something. I suggest you start by going to http://attentionwizard.com, do a free heat map and read through some of their materials about site attention and effectiveness. I am not affiliated with the people at attentionwizard.com, but I fully believe they know what they are talking about.
If you want to see my work, you can check out:

Hope that helps! Just remember that every site is unique, its needs are unique, and the function is specific to the goals of the owner.

Help with iWeb gallery

Hi all - this is my first post on here but i've used it for help and pointers with iWeb for some time. I'm just creating a website for my design portfolio and would really like to incorporate a gallery like the one that appears at the following link:
http://www.arizona-software.ch/photopresenter/screenshots.html
Does anyone know of what this gallery might be called? My knowledge of web design is extremely limited so if someone could let me know their thoughts (phrased 'for dummies') that would be great.
Many thanks in advance
Sam

Yes it does.
By the way, do you plan to publish to .mac.
Iphoto galleries do have that option as one of about three, but the user would have to select it.
If you haven't tired one you might. I think they look quite nice.
There are several different programs that will accomplish that, but if Iphoto will work for you it would be the easiest as it directly interfaces with Iweb.
There is a little freebe called "flash album exporter" that is a plug-in for Iphoto that will do exactly what you want, but you would have to manually upload and link it, which is not really a big deal.

The simple viewer option is about the same as what you saw.
good luck

Need Help With iWeb Haloscan Comments

I posted an earlier question on how to get the blog comments to work for my iWeb site. As it turns out, the reason I couldnt get them to work anymore is because I changed the actual blog format; i.e. I added extra html. I think this was the problem.
Someone suggested that I use Haloscan comments on my site instead, a suggestion which I've heard a number of times. I'm not familiar however with Haloscan comments or how they work.
Is there anyone here who's familiar with how they work, and could walk me through it step-by-step?
I promise that I'm an educated person! Nevertheless, I apologize that I'm so dumb when it comes to getting these ridiculous comments to work.
Thanks everyone for all the help!

Hi,
1. You basically go to the haloscan site and set up a free account. There are a number of customizations but don't worry about that now....you can go back later once you get more familiar w/ what you are doing.
http://www.haloscan.com/
2. Get iComment as Varkgirl suggested.
http://web.mac.com/cbrantly/iWeb/Software/iComment.html
The iComment page will give instructions on how to install the haloscan. But the gist is:
a. Make a textbox on your page and place the word "InsertCommentsHere" but leave off the quotation marks.
b. publish your site.
c. open iComment. A dialogue box will appear...press cancel.
d. pull down iComment>preferences from the menu
e. check haloscan area "add comments to my site" and put your Haloscan username in as prompted. Then press OK
f. Then you will choose which site you want the comments to go....that's it...all done for you iComment makes it very easy.

Need help with SWF page transitions please :)

I am having an issue recreating something I have seen on
other flash sites... (For example on 2Advanced.com) It is hard to
explain but I will do my best. I am advanced in design, layout,
tweening, and am a beginner to intermediate action scripter. So
even if your solution is a point in the right direction to some
code I could pick up and noodle around with that would be great.
That having been said, on to the issue, it's a 2 parter:
Part 1:
I have a Master FLA (or SWF) containing navigation that loads
secondary SWF pages into movie clip containers for the 5 additional
pages of the site. These load above the Master movie clip masking
it (Navigation floats above) so the loaded pages are sandwiched in
between.
View page in it's current state here:
http://sky.prohosting.com/tk421808/rwip/gallery_MAIN.html
This works ok right now, but I have the SWFs replacing one
another in one single movie clip container. What I would like to do
is similar to shuffling 5 cards... if you want the 4th card down
you pull it out, it goes to the top and slides over the last
visible card on top. So I would like the first page clicked to
slide in covering the master MC, the second page clicked, to slide
in covering that one, and so on and so forth. This would be easy if
the pages were linear, then I could just stack the movie clips, but
since the user will click out of order I need a way to load one
into MC_2 (on top), Then when another is clicked have the MC_2 SWF
move down a level (Swap MC?) to allow the second to slide in above,
and then delete the movie that has moved down into level one
(Bottom) then have this repeat when another movie is clicked. This
way it will look like the page you clicked is always sliding in
over the one you are leaving.
Part 2:
I have no idea how to do this next part but... I believe it
involves a gotoAndPlay. I would like to have animation in the movie
that is unloading after the button for the next page to load is
clicked... in other words, you have loaded a page, you click on
another link, and before the new external SWF page loads, the
current performs a gotoAndPlay where I have animated some
de-constructing swipes that remove the text, shapes holding the
text, and the image. ONLY THEN does it start to load the movie for
the link it selected. I think what I am trying to ask here is how
does it carry the link through the unloading animation until it's
done and then execute the loading of the new external SWF of the
link they just clicked?
I pray this makes sense... If not I would be happy to explain
further. :) Thanks in advance for any help!

You don't use frames. I'd probably use Fuse for this - which
is a sequencing
engine. (www.mosessupposes.com) You can call a function when
the sequence is
done animating - using what's known as a callBack function.
That'd be the
best way, IMO.
For part one, you could either place mutliple empty movie
clips, or just
create them using createEmptyMovieClip - which is a MovieClip
method, and
then load your swfs into them with MovieClipLoader. You can
use swapDepths
for layer control, in order to have any given clip move above
another, layer
wise.

Help With Master Pages

Hi all -
I'm more of a finance guy who has been given the task to design a PDF with forms - so please excuse my naivete as designing isn't my strong point.
For some reason now, my Master Page is showing up in the middle of my document, between two forms. In the Hierarchy, the Master Page is still on top, but when I view it in Acrobat or scroll down in LiveCycle, I'm seeing a blank page in the middle of my two forms. Any ideas what might be causing that and how I can correct the problem?
When I started, I just kept adding a new blank page and adding my form fields/text fields/objects/text. The document is now about 30 pages long.
I'm using Acrobat 9 Pro Extended and LiveCycle Designer 8.3
My thanks in advance for any help!

Could you post your form for a review?

Help with Quiz pages and buttons (please)

We use Captivate 6 with a subscription. I have put together a couple of modules with question pools, and some with just a few questions pages inserted. The last time I created a new captivate project, I put inserted quiz pages and the buttons were different then they had been before. The first few times they were grey, now they are green and a bit smaller. Looking at the proporties for each page and button, I cannot see anything that is different othe than one is a text button and the other is a transparent button. Both buttons are marked as default quiz button style. I don't use any themes. To make this short, I would like to know if there is a way to make the buttons the same every time I add a page, or a pool? I am not yet up to designing my own buttons, but probably will here shortly. Right now I need to get some training modules completed as quickly as possible so I don't have the time to reinvent the wheel (so to speak). The only other thing that I noticed was different in the projects was that in the skin editor one uses one called [default](modifired) and the other one uses one that I created. HOWEVER, I have another one that uses my custome skin and the buttons are grey on that one which is the same as the default one. I don't think the skin has anything to do with the button look. Correct me gently if I am wrong on this.
Thanks for the help.

Just one remark: in CP6 you always use a theme. And quiz slides have their own master slides, that will always be used. The buttons take on the style you see on those master slides, and this style can also be found in the object style manager. Skin and object styles are part of the theme. Probably you have overridden some of the styles defined?

Help with iWeb 09 and ftp publishing please?
