Help with starter page

I'm using DW8 and I created a starter page and modified it
very little except to add a flash movie on the left hand side. I've
uploaded ALL of the files to my site and it works fine except it
DOESN'T show the Flash movie. It doesn't show a spacer for it as if
it's broken or missing, it just doesn't show the file at all.
If you view-source on the page you can see that the flash
movie is SUPPOSED TO BE THERE, but the page is acting like it
isn't.
Help??
you can see it at
http:/www.angyl.net/templates/t1index.html

The page generates a Line 68 Object Expected error. Line 68
begins -
AC_FL_RunContent( 'c
I guess not.

    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.

  • Help- Flex Start Page doesn't open the Start Page

    Help -> Flex Start Page doesn't open the Start Page.
    I see multiple bug entries regarding this resolved, but no description of what I can do to fix it.
    I'm running Flex Builder Professional on Windows XP

    I've heard this can be caused in IE when the pop-up blocker is enabled. Disable it so pop-ups are allowed, and the Flex Start Page may load.
    If this post answers your question or helps, please mark it as such.

  • Help with start up probs after force quit

    Hi there . I think I'm royally fckd. I was on blogger and my screen froze no cursor move nothing had to force quit. Now every time I try to turn on the MacBook Air all I get is a black screen and that start up noise over over over again . still black screen and no log in page . Is there a way to fix this or is it royally gone to mac heaven.help with thanks .

    your force quit wouldn't cause an inability to powerup.   Black screen on every powerup?
    SSD or logic board fault likely.
    Contact Apple for diagnostic/ repair.
    Anything in your Air can be fixed yes. 

  • 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 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. =)

  • Issues with start page and default headings

    Hello there. I'm trying to give our school newspaper's webpage an overhaul using BC (without dreamweaver) and have run into two problems.
    First off, every time I set one of my pages as the start page, it doesn't stick. I've named it home, hit start page, base url still says no default start page. I've tried creating a new page called index, and it still doesn't work.
    Base URL: http://bellmagazine.businesscatalyst.com/
    Desired Home page: http://bellmagazine.businesscatalyst.com/index
    My second problem is visible on both links. Above and below the content are numerous links and text about BC, along with a floating "report abuse" button. I cannot find these in either the design or html tabs, and would like to remove them from my site. How do I accomplish this?

    Hi,
    I've checked your site and was able to set the domain's start page to reference the /home page as required. 
    This is appears working at the moment.
    In regards to the "abuse report" button that will remain visible only in trial.  Once a site is upgraded this button will be removed automatically. 
    Kind regards,
    -Sidney

  • How to work with Starter Pages

    Many of the sample Starter Pages in DreamWeaver 8.0.2, have
    the phrase 'Layout is customizable' but what does this mean?
    For example, I used the Health & Nutrition - Home Page
    and then wanted to change the layout and use a frameset called
    'Fixed Top, Nested Left'', which seemed to match the layout of the
    sample page. However, I can find no menu option that would allow me
    to move the header and navigation to the appropriate frames. I have
    resorted to viewing the code and copying parts of it into separate
    files.
    I'm curious about what is meant by layout is customizable,
    can anyone shed light on this please?
    Thanks in advance
    Mark

    There are no frames on that page, for starters.
    What they mean by customizable is that you can change the
    background
    colors, the photographs, other styling elements to customize
    the page,
    leaving the structure intact. However, it's not really the
    best
    example, using deprecated code--the health & nutrition
    one is pretty
    old, dating back to DW 4 at least.

  • Help with start up page

    Why everytime I open indesign or any of the cs programs it doesn't open a new blank document but opens a previously worked on file? How do i get just a normal blank white page when i open programs?
    Sorry to bother yall with something so sinple

    Does this help?

  • 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!

    >> I have no idea how to do this next part but... I

    <<
    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?

    I am wanting to start a podcast, but I am afraid I have no idea exactly how to.. I have spent quite a bit of time researching the easiest most effective way to start a podcast and upload it to Itunes, but in the end just feel more confused..
    SO here is my simple question..
    What do I need to do to start a Podcast and upload it to Itunes? 
    I bought a top of the line microphone, and have been messing around in gargeband to record it, but after that I am completely lost as to the next steps..
    Thanks soo much to anyone with advice!

  • Help with CSS Page Layout

    I guess I am "old school" in that I have always used tables
    to lay out my web pages. I decided I must learn to do it with CSS,
    but I'm having a terrible time (and it shouldn't be so hard!). I
    understand how to define the styles, add divs, etc. Here's what I'm
    having trouble with:
    How do I specify the normal page width to be 800 pixels,
    however I want it to be relative to the browser (i.e., 100% of 800
    pixels).
    I understand the "float" tag, but if I have a right-hand
    sidebar, I can't seem to get the text to the left (in a div called
    "maincontent") to stop at the sidebar and wrap to the next line. I
    tried specifying "Hidden" as my textbook suggests, but that has no
    effect.
    I can easily do all of this with tables, so do I really need
    to abandon them?
    Thanks!

    Hi Jane,
    I'll try to answer all your questions, then a tip or two to
    stop the main
    content from dropping when the browser window size is
    reduced.
    - " I didn't realize that
    margin-top: 0px;
    margin-right: auto;
    is not the same as margin: 0px auto;
    That's right.
    margin: 0px auto; is actaully saying make the top margin 0,
    the right margin
    auto, the bottom margin 0 and the left margin auto.
    It's just CSS shorthand.
    For example, you might have:
    margin-top: 10px;
    margin-right: 20px;
    margin-bottom: 5px;
    margin-left:15px;
    You could just use margin: {10px 20px 5px 15px;}
    Think of a clock to remember the directions.
    12:00 top, 3:00 right, 6:00 bottom, 9:00 left.
    If any of the values are the same, you can shorten it more.
    For example, if top is 10, right is 20, bottom is 5 and left
    is 20, it's
    margin: {10px 20px 5px;}
    If the 4th location (left) is missing a value, it makes it
    the same as what
    you have for right.
    If top and bottom are 10px, and left and right are 20px,
    it's:
    margin {10px 20px;}
    If the last two positions ( bottom and left vlaues ) are
    missing, then it
    will use the top value for the bottom, and the right value
    for the left.
    What auto right and left is doing is subtracting your content
    width (the
    container width) from the browser window width, and then
    dividing the
    remainder in 2 and applying each value to each side of the
    container.
    -"I found that they all took on the font of the maincontent
    and I had to fix
    them
    individually. "
    The only text that should be Time is the text in your main
    content, where
    you have that font defined. Everything else should be Arial
    if you define
    the body as such. I'll post a link at the end of this.
    - "I put my bold sentence (Friendship, Fun, etc.) in h1, but
    I had to change
    the
    color & size, so that added another style element. "
    You don't need to give the h1 a class. You can actually just
    style the h1
    tag:
    h1 {
    margin: 10px 10px 2px;
    font-size: larger;
    color: #941238;
    You can only use h1 once on a page.
    You can use h2, h3, h4, etc, as many times as you would like,
    and you can
    style these just like the h1 style above.
    - "I don't quite understand the .rightsidebar p { and
    container p{
    I am assigning the spacing to the <p> tag? What exactly
    is that doing?"
    That is saying, give all the <p> tags inside the
    rightsidebar container the
    follwing style.
    So, in this example:
    .rightsidebar p {
    font-size: 18px;
    margin: 2px 10px;
    it's saying give all the <p> tags in this container a
    size of 18 and margin
    of 2px top and bottom, and 10px left and right.
    It's a lot easier than giving a class to every <p> tag
    - "I also don't quite understand the .clear {
    Why not just choose clear:both on the next section <div
    class="footer">"
    You could, if the footer was in the container. It just needs
    to be the final
    element before the close of a container that contains the
    float(s).
    -Do you use the <div class="container"> technique all
    the time?
    Yes, most of the time. I usually put everything in it, and
    use the
    margin:0px auto; to center it.
    That way, I don't have to try to get a number of different
    elements to align
    with the right and left sides by applying values to all of
    them, which can
    get tricky quickly.
    -"If you'll indulge me one more question, I wonder if it's
    possible to put a
    graphic (say, of a putting green) underneath my
    rightsidebar? I would want
    the sidebar to lay on top of the putting green for an
    interesting artistic
    touch.
    Yes, you can give that div a background image. You just need
    to make the div
    the same size as the image so you see it all (or vice-versa).
    Now, to make that maincontent not drop like it does you can
    remove the width
    in the CSS. Now it will expand over to the left edge of the
    rightsidebar.
    You can control how close it gets by giving the right sidebar
    a bigger left
    margin. The point is, with no width assigned, the maincontent
    will shrink
    down to the longest word in it before it drops.
    Here's what it looks like:

    Let me know if you have any questions.
    Take care,

  • Help with start up. new iMac 27" with Marericks installed has been giving me trouble with IDs and passwords.  More than one account downloaded from older Laptop.  Now the computer has the turning wheel in from of gray screen and won't go any further when

    I recently started using my desktop iMac 27" and have been having problems since installing Mavericks, not saying that Mavericks is the problem per se.  I think I have too many accounts with too many names, with too many Apple IDs and too many passwords, email passwords and Apple ID passwords, and keychain passwords, etc.  Can't keep them straight even though I write everything down.  The screen has been making me log in and log out with Account name and passwords after everything I've been doing, also confused about Users and Groups and how to sync everything. I finally just "shut down" everything and the screen was black.  When I turned the computer on again, the circular gear in the middle just kept turning but nothing happened after that.  Then I held the on button in the back until the screen went black again. 
    What should I do?  Is there a way to combine all my accounts into one account with one Apple ID?  I should say that I also have trying to use iCloud and it has different IDs and passwords. Also when I try to log in with one account name, I can't enter anything I write,and when I type on the keyboard, nothing appears on the screen, although I can receive emails, I can't send them. 
    In another account, what I type does appear on the screen, but I think it's an earlier account and doesn't translate aver to the other account. ALTHOUGH i set up iCloud accounts, they don't appear any more.
    Very confused.  Any Ideas about how I can get the computer to start up again and show a new screen?
    Thanks to anyone who has workable suggestions.

    If you really believe that your system has been compromised, here's what you do:
    Disconnect your Mac from your cable modem;
    Back up any documents on your system that are important to you;
    Boot your Mac from the system installation disks that came with it (insert the disk, restart your Mac, and hold down the "c" key until you get the "spinning gear" icon);
    Choose a language and click the arrow button to continue;
    From the Utilities menu, choose Disk Utility;
    In Disk Utility, select your computer's hard drive;
    Click the "Erase" tab;
    Click the "Security Options" button and select to have it overwrite all the data on the hard drive;
    Click the "Erase" button and allow it to process;
    Once the "erase process has completed (it will take a while), reinstall Mac OS X.
    Or, if this is too much for you to accomplish on your own, take your system to an Apple Store and have them help you perform these steps. If your system was indeed compromised, this will remove any such hack. You can then set up a new user account for the computer, reinstall your applications (reinstall only from original disks or downloads from the company making the software) and documents, and reconnect to the Internet.
    Note that when you reconnect to the cable modem, you may still get an IP address starting with 198. This is normal with some cable modems and probably not a cause for concern. It will not be an indication that your system is still compromised; that will not be possible if you perform all the above steps.
