How to embed widget code in a page or template?

Hi All - I have been using Dreamweaver 8 for a little over a year and still feel like I'm stumbling along...
The idea of Widgets is fairly new to me but from all the "Free Widget" sites, I got the idea that it was as easy as cut & paste into the page code...
Okay, something isn't right... the code shows up on the page as text, not the nice little widget iself.
HOW do I go about getting these little apps to work on my site?
I have the macromedia extension manager, but is it an extension or is it the code itself and how to place it that matters?
Help! .. I am really unsure about anything involving code...so please use small words!
Thanks!

I am sorry, I thought it was pretty straightforward... if Dreamweaver is supposed to be designer-friendly.
It depends what you mean by "designer-friendly". Dreamweaver is a professional web development tool. It speeds up the development of websites using  HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and other web-related languages. If you have been using it for a year and still feel you're stumbling along, it sounds as though you don't understand the tool you're trying to use. Without a sound knowledge of HTML and CSS, Dreamweaver will always remain an uphill struggle.
If you understand the web technologies you're working with, cutting and pasting a widget isn't particularly difficult. But if you don't understand JavaScript and how it interacts with HTML, the process becomes more difficult.
I see that you're new to the forum. Please take a few moments to read How to get help quickly. One of the things it explains is that it's always a good idea to put an example of the problem you're having on a website and post the URL. By seeing things in context, it's much easier for others to help you. Solving your problem may be something that can be fixed in a jiffy, or it might be much more complicated. At the moment, though, your question is far too vague. It's like ringing up a garage and saying your car isn't running well. The first thing the mechanic will tell you is to bring it in so he can look at it.
You have posted this question in the Dreamweaver Application Development forum, which deals mainly with PHP, ASP, and other server-side languages. I'm moving this thread to the main Dreamweaver forum, which has more users who might be able to offer further advice.

  • How to embed Typekit code in Muse pages?

    How to embed Typekit code in Muse pages?

    Hi Enu1,
    Currently, you can only use and preview the free and open-source Typekit fonts in Muse.
    If you're comfortable with a little HTML/CSS, the Muse Insider wrote a post on how to insert the Typekit embed code from the Muse interface:
    http://museinsider.com/how-to-add-typekit-fonts-to-your-muse-site.html
    Or you can add the embed code to the Page Properties dialog within Muse, which will include it in the <head> of the page when you export your website.
    However, we do see the value of being able to design in Muse with all the fonts in your Typekit library. This will require a deeper integration between Typekit & Muse. I'll give the team a nudge in this direction for you.
    Let me know if you have any further questions and thanks for your patience.
    Cheers,
    Benjamin

  • How to embed xml codes in jsp

    hi there
    does any one know how to embed xml codes in jsp??
    if yes please how and where can i more information about it..
    thanks

    Have done this for SVG JSP (an xml document) as such:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?>
    <%@ page contentType="image/svg+xml"%>
    .....and so on
    Only caveat- Have noticed that <?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?>
    needs to be the FIRST line of your page - make sure no carriage return between other scriplet code like this
    Do NOT do like this:
    <% ...code
    %>
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?>
    rather like this (if you have scriplets first):
    <% ...code
    %><?xml version="1.0" encoding="US-ASCII"?>
    ....and so on
    Works for SVG- Hope helps in your situation

  • How to embed 3D models in web page using JAVA?

    Hello
    I'm doing a project at University to create a virtual tour of a village. I am creating the buildings in MAYA using polygon planes and cubes and then exporting to VRML.
    I plan to embed each individual model into a separate web page. Then when the user clicks on a location in a 2D map they will be taken to the web page containing that building.
    However, I can't work out how to embed these 3D models into web pages using JAVA. Can anyone help me with this, please?
    Also, I've been told to use JAVA 3D to interact with the project but am unclear as to how JAVA 3D would be used in this project - aqny ideas/suggestions welcome!
    M.

    If you use Java-plugin, you can embed Java3D in a web page.
    Here is the URL(http://www.geovista.psu.edu/products/demos/LorenzAttractor3D/index.html) which used Java3D.
    I hope this helps.

  • How to Embed ISR code data into video

    Hello,
    I have finished a music video, and the client would like me to embed the video with an ISR code. Does anyone know how to do this?
    It is a code that tracks the downloads, and it needs to put into the video as well as the audio.
    Any help would be wonderful!
    Thanks Lucinda Spurling

    Yep I mean ISRC sorry.  Evidently I need to embed it into the video file not the burn, as it is going to a
    mastering house. I need to put it into the meta data I think of the mp4 file.
    Not sure how to do that. ? Any Ideas

  • How to embed Flash Player into HTML page

    Hello,
    I have a question for some gurus who know very well the
    Javascript.
    Namelly what i want is to add <object> tag to the
    current html page programatically with using JAVA SCRIPT.
    As IE is more forgiving it displays the object properly but,
    in Firefox it behaves a bit different. Actually it doesn't appear
    at all in Mozilla browser. Any good sample would be great help.
    I was wondering what i am doing wrong?
    Thanks :)

  • How to EMBED Youtube/Google Video into Pages

    Not import or copy, but EMBED. For instance, you can embed the following into a webpage:
    <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/nqM4tKPDlR8"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/nqM4tKPDlR8" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>
    Anybody want to chime in?

    Pages is not a web browser, and can't pull information from the web. There is no way to do what you want, as far as I know.

  • How-to show XML code into HTML page???

    I have not formatted String,
    String str = <target name=\"-post-compile\"><obfuscate><filesetdir=\"${build.classes.dir}\"/ > </obfuscate></target>;
    how I can show this String on Web page in the this format?
    <target name="-post-compile">
            <obfuscate>
                  <fileset dir="${build.classes.dir}"/>
            </obfuscate>
    </target>Thanks.

    You would need to escape all of the characters. ie < should become &lt; and > should be &gt etc etc; You would probably also have to put in the tabs/<br> tags in appropriate places.
    The JSTL c:out tag which automatically escapes characters for you, but how you want it laid out is completely up to you to program.
