How to capture an HTML snippet like dashboard widget?

How do you copy a website html to paste into an iWeb 09 html snippet? Is there a copy command in the Safari browser like when you clip a snippet to make a Dashboard widget? That would be too easy. Do I need some other software for copying the html?

Drag your pointer over the embed code so that it is all highlighted in blue. Then do ⌘C to copy it and then paste it into iWeb's HTML Snippet window by doing ⌘V.
Is there a copy command in the Safari browser like when you clip a snippet to make a Dashboard widget?
No — Only the general ⌘C and ⌘V editing commands mentioned above.
Do I need some other software for copying the html?
No.

How to send an html snippet with swf flash under other layers in iWeb?

I like designing websites on iweb but face problems regarding flash.
When i embedd a swf in an HTML snippet...the snippet automatically postions itself at the topmost layer. Even if you send it behind lets say a box or any shape, or a link ..on publishing it , it comes right back up when seen on other browsers like firefox or chrome. But strangely on my mac browser - safari- it works just fine.
Links in a flash swf banner when placed in iWeb (inside an html snippet ) opens other linked pages within the frame of the html snippet itself...and not as a seperate page.
I'm not a programmer so i wouldnt understand complicated stuff... but i knw how to copy paste codes inside a snippet and edit the sizes.
I need help fast?
Thanks in Advance!!

That's how browsers behave.
Links in a flash swf banner when placed in iWeb (inside an html snippet ) opens other linked pages within the frame of the html snippet itself...and not as a seperate page.
Use the target attribute : target="_top" or target="_blank" in the <a href> element.

Pasting custom code in a HTML Snippet and make it work is your responsibility. And if you're not a programmer, start learning and become one. Before you know you're the resident technology expert in this forum.

How do i remove HTML snippets borders?

can anybody help me i want to remove the html snippet borders it won't show in my mac safari browser but i shows up in ios safari which is a bit annoying is there a way that i can remove to border

Other browsers, like older versions of Firefox, display unwanted borders unless you specified "border:none" in the stylesheet.
The example of the "default code" given above is some what dated!
The "allowTransparency" attribute is only required for old versions of IE. Transpareny is the default value in all modern browsers and is not supported in HTML5. Neither are "frameborder" and "scrolling".
A new attribute in HTML5, that would be applicable in your case, is "seamless" which specifies that the iframe content should look as though its part of the page that contains it.
As far as preventing scrollbars is concerned, use "overflow:hidden" in the css.
For the time being, until HTML5 is universally adopted, it makes more sense to write iframe styles in CSS although you can still use the height and width attributes if you really want to since they are still supported.
<iframe src="URL to the embeded doc" style="width:Xpx;height:Ypx;border:none;overflow:hidden"></iframe>

How to update a previously submitted, selling Dashboard Widget?

did neither find a way to upload a new dashboard widget nor to update an existing one.. any advise or hint is appreciated!
Thank you.

Thanks for posting... I'm experiencing the same thing, it's nice to know I'm not going crazy.
I've periodically attempted to update my widget in the past year... It's free, I make no money from it, and neither does Apple, but it's not about me or Apple, it's about the people who want to use the app, and learn how to play the piano.
I've invested a few hours attempting to move forwards on this issue, and if it's truely not possible... then that seems like a large shortfall in customer service; it's not just the developers wasting time, it's the customers looking for the products.
If I'm missing something, please let me know.

How come Safari will not open the dashboard widgets?

I need some help I was trying to open some dashboard widgets I kept getting a error message from Safari. Stating that this page was not able to open? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Please any suggestion

Could be the com.apple.Safari.plisy file in ~/Library/Preferences/. Try removing that first. If no change, move ~/Library/Safari/ to your desktop. If no change, try creating/logging into a test user account.

How to invoke Custom HTML pages on Dashboard page when running OBIEEon AIX

Hi,
i am facing an issue with regards to invoking a custom HTML page( say definitions.html) using html code inside a text section( with html markup) on a dashboard page.
I have performed the following configuration on Windows and it perfectly works well
However i can get the same to work on AIX where i actually needed it to work:)
Could any of you please provide any insights over this issue pls? am i missing something obvious? Appreciate your inputs.
Here is the description of the configuration performed.
Created a HTML file called definitions.html
copied the file in the following folders
OracleBI\web\app\res
OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\applications\analytics\analytics\Missing_
I have created a new folder called _Missing.
I restarted the app server
HTML code on the Dashboard Page ( used Text section with HTML Markcup)
<b>Help
I have checked the permissions on the custom page and it loosk fine. I have added <HardenXSS> false</HardenXSS>tag to my instanceconfig.xml but not luck yet
Appreciate your inputs
Thanks

The easiest thing for you to do is to download the Oracle BI SampleApp (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/obiee-samples-167534.html) and follow their instructions for install/creating/deploying the analyticsRes application on the Oracle BI Application Server. This will allow you to have a URL such as http://myserver.obiee.com:9704/analyticRes/definitions.html on the same server system as your Oracle BI server. This way the port and domain are the same as your Oracle BI Server and you can simply place any additional web based file in that deployed application path to reference on your Oracle BI Server.

How to use a searchfield in a dashboard widget?

Hi,
I would to use the Searchfield component in my widget, but I'm not sure how it works. I already know it's a NSSearchField, but that's it.
The purpose for this search field is searching within an array of strings and presenting the results in a sort of dropdown list (from the searchfield object). Like the one I see in several weather widgets.
Any tips or suggestions ?
With regards,

HTML Snippet does not exist as a Widget option in iWeb 09

I have iWeb 09 on my machine. I'm trying to insert an HTML Snippet onto a page so i can drop in the code for a XSPF player.
When i choose "Show Media", under Widgets there are only four, and HTML Snippet isn't one of them. I only have:
MobileMe Gallery
Google AdSense
iSight Photo
iSight Movie
I also don't have the YouTube widget, the Google Map Widget--these i only know about by looking in support and seeing that these should all be there.
Any thoughts as to how i can get HTML Snippet available in my media widgets? My site is almost completed and ready to publish. Without this feature it will be pointless to publish at all.
Many thanks for any suggestions!
Peter

Can you post the code you are using so that we can see what the problem is?

How to add html? The HTML snippet does not work. Whatever I add, (a "like button, SEO key words, etc.), does not appear on the site once published.

I am trying to add html to my website created in iWeb, (a "like" button, for example). I paste the HTML language into the HTML Snippet window, but it does not show up ion my published page. Any advice?

I have put code into two html snippets, (per facebook instructions). Should they go together?
First snippet:
<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script>(function(d, s, id) {
var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
if (d.getElementById(id)) return;
js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
js.src = "http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js#xfbml=1";
fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
}(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));</script>
Second snippet:
<div class="fb-like" data-href="http://www.bonniecrockettconsulting.com" data-send="true" data-width="450" data-show-faces="false"></div>
Thanks!

How to change appearance of text in HTML snippet?

Does anyone know if / how I can make the text inside an HTML snippet (when rendered in the overall HTML page) appear like the text on the rest of the page?
Here, you can see an example of what I mean: http://zach.in.tu-clausthal.de/tmp/iweb.png
So, the HTML snippet contains, effectively, a hyperlink to an email adress - now I would like to make the email adress look like all other links on my web page.
I have tried to insert a <span class=".."> inside the HTML snippet, to no avail.
Any other ideas, suggestions, and insights will be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Gabriel.

Normally you would just use a style for the <a> so that you can style the link and rollover.
If you want to use this code as is, put the CSS into the snippet. You don't need a span "class".
Change the span to this...
<span>zach in.tu-claushal.de</span>
... and add the style...
<style type="text/css">
span {
    font: 1.0em "Verdana", sans-serif;
    font-style: normal;
    color: #000FFF;
    text-decoration: underline;
    text-transform: normal;
</style>
Change the font type, size and color to taste.
I have expressed the size in ems but you can use pixels etc.
If you don't want the underline, change "text-decoration" to "none".

How do prevent HTML snippets from being listed on search engines?

I just created a new website using iWeb 3.0.1. On a couple of my pages I embedded flash music players and video players using the HTML Snippet widget. I did a quick search of my website on google and noticed that the HTML widgets were showing in the results as separate pages. I then clicked on these HTML Snippet pages and up came the widget on a separate page by itself. How do I prevent search engines from listing any HTML Snippets on my iWeb site as separate pages?
Thanks
athafran

Paste this in the HTML Snippet.
In the <body> ... </body> part you paste the code you currently use for your Snippet.
I haven't tried it, the noindex part, but the code itself is accepted by iWeb.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">
<meta name="description" content="instructions for excluding search engine robots">
<title>Search Engine exclusion</title>
</head>
<body>
Here your current code.
</body>
