How to edit iWeb pages in Lion

After installing Lion, iWeb is gone.. searched the forum and many tips for other programs. But I will edit an old site built in iWeb.. Is there a program that can read iWeb projects without problems?

Are you sure the iWeb application is not in your Applications folder? If it is consider the following:
In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
If the iWeb application is not on your hard drive then reinstall it from the disks that came with your Mac. It will look like one of these:
Then apply the appropriate updaters.

How to edit Framework Page

Hello!
I have some question:
I copy Default Framework page, but I don't understand how to edit it content?
When right-click on my framework, only "Open->Delta Link Tracer" and "Change ID" opens..

Hi Paul,
I assume that you tried to edit your copied frameworkpage in the "Portal Display". There you can't edit it.
You have to go to the pcd (Content Administration -> Portal Content) and can then edit your copied frameworkpage (because it is principally also just a page, like other pages in the pcd).
Hope it helps.

HOW TO - Duplicate iWeb Page as a Template?

January 19, 2006
Hello:
Do you know HOW TO
duplicate an iWeb Page I make
so I can use it again as a template?
Thanks,
JOHN

John,
No easy task with iWeb's file structure. It appears the sites are all stored together. If you create a second site, you'll see that it's not a new document, just a new heading in the Site Organizer column. Site info is stored in a package called "Domain" in UserName/Library/Application Support/iWeb. This contains all media. The pages themselves are most likely in index.xml.gz. I'm assuming template info and content have been compiled in the xml docs in this zipped file. Sorry that I have no better news.

How to edit the page 0 "template" in APEX 4.2

I have an application that has been upgraded to APEX 4.2. On page 0, when I try to move an existing region to Region Position 8 I get an error: "This region position is not in your page template". Looking at the page definition (component view) I can see the name of the template associated with page 0, so I edited that page template and added #REGION_POSITION_08#, but still I get the same error message. So I thought perhaps I would change page 0 to use a different template, but Edit Page does not show the page template at all for page 0.
So I suspect that page 0 is no longer supposed to have a template at all, yet my upgraded application does (sort of) and I can't change it. Any ideas?

Dear Paul,
I used the login_table for my login page,
which has only two fields username and password as like login screen, in my appliction in the change password page
I used the another table called Update_user
which has four fields,
1.username
2.current_password
3.New_password
4.Retye
and the change password page contains this exact same 4 fields from this Table,
whenever the users entering the 4 fields and if they click the create/update button the data will be stored in the Update_Table
and the password field in the Login_table will be updated based on the following trigger,
   create or replace TRIGGER trg1
before insert on update_user
referencing old as old new as new
for each row
begin
    update login_table set password= :new.retype where username=:new.username;
end;
       As you said I tried that :APP_USER and I made the username column as read only,
When the values inserted except the username other 3 values inserted into the update_user table and the login_table not updated so the password also not changed,
Is there any other way to directly upadte the password in the Login_table without going for another Table?
Please Give some suggestion.
Thank you,
regards,
Gurujothi

How to Change iWeb page themes after the page has already created?

Once you have created a page with a theme and saved it, and then later you want to change it to another theme... How does one change theme without recreating the page?
Also, How does one add background music to a page once it is opened?
Thanks!
T.

I too am wondering about your first question, but I have found a workaround for your second question.
First save the audio clip as a mov file in quicktime, then place it somewhere on the page. Make it small and out of the way and hide ot from site.
Now publish the site. Then you will have to change the HTML. Open text edit and select "Ignore Rich Text Commands". Open the iDisk icon on the left and find the Web folder then follow this string Web/Sites/iWeb/<Your Site Name>/<then the page name folder, example: "Home_files">/then "Home.js"
Once opened find the quicktime file use the find feature it will list the properties twice, the second listings are the ones you want to change. Change controller="true" to controller="false". Then autoplay="false" to autoplay="true" and loop="false" to loop="true".
If you change that specific page and republish you will have to do this again, but only if you change that page. You will not if you rebublish and you had made no changes to that specific page.
Hope this helps.

How to edit iweb from a remote location

I made a website using iweb in the office and I have a personal iweb from my home. How can I edit the office website without changing my personal from home?

you have to manage your domain files!
to get the page from the office to your home, you will need to copy the domain.sites file from the office computer to your home computer. you can find it here:
Users/username/application support/iweb/DOMAIN.SITES
copy it to the other computer. then in the "iweb" folder (see above), create a folder named after your office website. place the domain file from the office in that new folder. now when you double click you can modify that page again.
whenever you want to work on one file, you will have to double click on the one you want to use!
see here for more information:
- a little app which will do it for you

How long editing a Pages file?

Hi. I'm wondering if there is a way to see how long you've spent working on a document in Pages. I know with Word you can see how long you spent editing a document. Is there anything similar in Pages? Thanks.

No, such feature not available in Pages.

How to edit published page?

I created a website using iWeb, published it and now want to edit...but I cannot for the life of me figure out to edit the published page. I can view it...I just can't seem to edit it. Any ideas?
Power Mac G4 Tower Mac OS X (10.4.4)

The only way I know to deal with that problem is to:
* Go to your published site.
* Drag images, etc from your published site to iWeb, then use those elements to reconstruct your site.
* Or, do a screen capture of your site (someone suggested Shift-Command-4; I use Shift-Command-3). Then use an imagine processing problem like Photoshop Lite or perhaps iPhoto to crop out material you don't want. Then paste the remaining image into iWeb. It's not idea, but it might save you a lot to time reconstructing your site.
* Another tip is to do your text composition in MS Word, then "Save as Webpage". That way, you have a backup copy of material in a .doc file, in addition to what you have saved in our domain file.

How to upload iweb page

i want to upload my website from iweb to namesco, i have bought my domain name from them , which comes with an email and ftp thing.
i have saved my website in iweb to local folder and to ftp, when doing a test connnection everything is working perfectly. i dont thinks its a problem with namesco as the when i trying my website address it comes up with an access denied page.
other info that might help ;
all the icons in the left coloumn of iweb are red - is that important?
the publish icon in bottom left corner is now faded, so unpressable.
for directory path i can type in / or /web and test connection works
i am VERY new at this website making stuff so please use short and easy to understand word!!! like talking to a 5 year old!!!
thanks for your time and hopefully your help x

The icons in the left column will turn blue when you publish successfully using either the iWeb FTP or to a local folder.
Both publishing methods are described here...

If you are using the iWeb FTP, try using the publishing settings shown on the above page. Leave the Directory/Path blank.

How to delete iweb page that crashes program

I have one page on my web site that crashes the program when i try to open it or delete it.. Is there another way to remove this volatility from the website with out loosing any other site pages?

/Users/yourname/Sites/Home is the folder where the actual pages are stored, deleting one item there will force iWeb to rebuild the site index and may fix the problem ...

Edit iweb page

I want to automatically load the next page after 20 seconds. Is there any way to do this? Thanks and Merry Christmas!

<script type="text/JavaScript">
setTimeout("top.location.href = '../../page.html';",20000);
</script>
Paste the javacript in a HTML snippet on each page.
page.html is the next page you redirect to.
20000 is the number of milliseconds.
If the page is somewhere else on the webserver, you'll have to adjust the number of '../'
Or use the absolute url to each page :
http://www.yourdomain.com/afolder/apage.html

Editing theme pages

Hi, I'm trying to figure out how to edit theme pages.
t's hard to explain.. take a look at my blog,
http://web.mac.com/sharonabaja
the far left side has a light orange stripe down the side. I can't find anywhere how to select it to either delete it or change color.
Also, what I want to do with photos, is like on blogspot. You put in your photos, they display small until you click on them and then they will view large.
http://sharonabaja.blogspot.com/
I started this blog on blogspot, but now I am moving it to mac. com.
Any ideas?
thanks, Sharona

Blog template can display images in Blog Summary and Blog Entry.
Images in blog entry can be hyperlinked to larger images, like here.
http://test.cyclosaurus.com/Blog/Blog/Entries/2008/6/29Travels_through_theeast.html
Images in blog summary can not be linked in iweb, but this can be done. Blog summary widget has to be redefined with javascript and add to blog summary page with HTML Snippet:

Beginners guide screwed|Is impossible to edit large pages on the wiki

When you're trying to edit a large page on the wiki you get this message:
WARNING: This page is 40 kilobytes long; some browsers may have problems editing pages approaching or longer than 32kb. Please consider breaking the page into smaller sections.
Firefox can handle the 40kb but not the 107kb of the Begginers Guide for example.
And when you do a change, if you dont preview it you get a shiny blank page instead of the document.
I was trying to add one line to the Oficcial installation guide and ended up breaking it into two parts (i move the apendix to another page) to be able to recover it's contents.
Some other person form #archlinux that was helping me with this issue also accidentally override the text from the Beginners guide, and we can't roll back it. So, any WikiAdmin can roll back the changes on the Beginners guide? and tell us (the normal users) how to edit long pages.
Thanks

How can I edit or remove iWeb pages from Mobile me after I have published it to another site?

I have published iweb pages to another server and now I need to replace the mobile me version with page "pages moved to..." or at least I need to delete old version. However I can't find any way to do this from mobile me or from iWeb.
From Mobile me I cant find any way to even delete pages.
With iWeb I cant edit the old version because I cant find way to have two version of same pages. As I understand what I need is a version of my republished pages that only contains the index page "pages moved to...". But I cant create that because I cant have two versions.
Yours Mika
