How to make a website similar to another site?

I am looking to make a website for my photography portfolio. So I decided to look online for some examples and found this website: http://www.larajade.co.uk/
I don't do fashion photography but i liked the whole scroll through the pictured kind of idea. But I am relatively new to dreamweaver and don't know how to make that effect. I was just wondering if anyone knew how or had an idea about how to do something like it. And if you did, somehow teach me how to do it.
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Deryk

As a novice, some things I see: The footer has redundant, unecessary images (4 large images-for your services--REDUNDANT) odd? The text part of footer: text seems close, scrunched, have some space between heading and items, DO NOT CENTER TEXT!,
One of the service links bought to page with SAME LARGE image on homepage-change picture, don't use same large image for 2 different pages.
DO NOT use CONTACT US as 1 of 5 links on menubar. Do in another creative way, and/or use footer for contact. I think this looks amateurish (my opinion of course).
If I remember, the homepage and the rest of site, have exact same page structure.--See if you can atleast change the structure of inner pages versus the homepage.
Didn't look at enough, but..maybe...
each of your services should be a main menu link on your menubar. I would not put contact us on menubar, and you also had another menubar link with no dropdown( of course ok, but maybe could restructure)--Also your last service (on right of menubar)---why is that one different, and not included with the other services??
Seems like your menubar (items) structure could be reworked.--I would suggest, briefly looking at, to maybe have each service as a primary menu heading/title..YOU MAY NOT NEED A DROPDOWN MENU? Make sure if dropdown it is necessary.
Local security should be one of your services.
Have your footer logo, as is to left, but maybe put your footer links more to the right;;It will 'balance' the footer section
Your top logo seems too close to your main LARGE image (Which btw, seems oddly large compared to the rest of your site?)--That LARGE top image(the same palce on every same looking page), seems too big for your page--Why doen't it line up with the rest off your page content?

How to make a portlet unvisible for another(not Owners) Users?

How to make a portlet unvisible for another users?

You can hide and show portlets of Web providers (OmniPortlet, Web Clipping, and Java portlets) on portal pages dynamically. This functionality is controlled by security managers. The PDK provides a number of security managers. For example:
o Group security manager: The group security manager makes the portlet appear to users who are members of a specified group, while hides the portlet for those who are not members.
o Authentication level security manager: You can use the authentication level security manager to control access to the portlets based on the users authentication level. For example you may hide the portlet from public users, but display it to authenticated users.
In addition to the security managers provided by the PDK, you can build your own security managers.
Although OmniPortlet and Web Clipping do not expose security managers through the user interface, you can apply them by editing their XML provider definition file.
For PL/SQL portlets you can use the is_runnable method to control whether the portlet is hidden or shown.

How to make a website for a MS SQL database?

I'm used to making static html websites, but now I shall make a website for a friend who has made a database (Microsoft SQL). So I shall make the layout, forms etc, and he provides the database. Can anyone please explain the prinsiples of making such a site, and how to connect it to the database?
PS: I've added the features "Server Behaviors", "Databases" and "Bindings" in my Dreamweaver CC, as they are not preinstalled.
Hope for help!

media="screen" or media="print" is part of a css link in the head of a page and allowed one set of rules for print and another set for screens.
It was the precursor to "Media Queries" which is what you're looking for.
Here's a good starting point for Media Queries...
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/introducing-media-queries.html
Basically, you make one site in html, then 2 stylesheets that control the site depending on the viewer device. You use the pixel width of the device or browser window to determine which stylesheet is used. When they're on a desktop, stylesheet1 is used, when they move onto something smaller, stylesheet2 kicks in.
The basics are pretty simple, getting the most out of it takes practice.

I know that there are mixed views on whther this is a good
idea.
Fortunately - Firefox users have a new Tab appear rather than
a whole
window - which in my view is much better.
I don't have a beta version of IE7 - does this do the same -
that
would be progress IMHO.

How to make my websites look good in iPhone and iPad?

I have problem to make my website in iWeb look good in webbrowsers in iPhone or iPad... The background (JPEG-file)are dublicating several times!
But that's not a problem for all my different sides, thou it was build in the same way. Here's the site (try to looka at it in a webbrowswer in any handheld
divice): http://www.clavius.se

That's the way Mobile Safari handles backgrounds.
Why not use a normal background with proper text boxes.
Anyway, remove your background in iWeb and paste this code in a HTML Snippet :
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

</script>
where the background file (entresida.jpg) is OUTSIDE the Site folder iWeb creates.
BTW, here's how I make iPad friendly websites with iWeb :

How to make a website like this

Does anyone know a good publication or training DVD that will
quickly teach me how to make websites like this:
http://blusites.com/adam/
I've been taking a flash course through a local college and
all they teach me is how to do stupid animal animations, animated
gifs etc... I'm dropping the class hoping that I can teach myself
and not waste anymore time
Thanks!

Personally, why pay to view linda.com videos when you can
access all the videos you could want for free at
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/video_workshop/
I'm not crazy about the videos anywhere because I might have
to watch them again and again, but some of the videos have a
tutorial and a file to download.
If you're the type that you like to do all you can before
going to a forum, then you can do these things:
1. I don't know if you have Adobe Creative Suite 3, but if
you want to make websites with flash, you will need the program.
2. I like the flash movie at
http://blusites.com/adam/blu1.swf,
but believe it or not, it's a very simple movie. The photographs
are supplied by a professional photographer, and the flash movie is
simple.
3. If you already know how to make movies using Flash, then
get yourself an Advanced Flash book to to learn faster and become a
better flash creator. Flash CS3 uses ActionScript 2.0 and 3.0. You
might like to get a book on ActionScript 3.0 to learn faster.
You can and will learn faster and better if you take the time
to do 2. and 3.
There is a ton of Flash Tutorials at Adobe and other
websites, do a search and you'll get so many sites it could take
years to visit them all.
good luck, hope this helps

How do I add a website to remember the password after I have been to it before? I didn't know how to make the website remember the password initially.

I want to have firefox remember a password on some sites that I have already been to previously. When it asked me initially, I didn't know how to make it remember. Now I would like for it to remember that site. Please explain how to do this.

If you clicked "Never" then you have created an exception that you need to remove.<br />
Otherwise Firefox should offer to store the name and password on the next visit when you sign on.
Remove site(s) from the Exceptions:
* Firefox/Tools > Options > Security: Passwords: Exceptions
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/make-firefox-remember-usernames-and-passwords

How to make a call to service from site studio templates?

Hi,
May be this is very basic but I am not able to figure out how to make a call to a service from site studio templates (hcsp). I have seen one example of service call in the dynamic list fragment. It makes a call to SS_GET_SEARCH_RESULTS service using executeService() method. But it doesn't take any parameters and also not very how returned results are captured.
I want to execute WCM_PLACEHOLDER service. It takes 2 main parameters dataFileDocName and templateDocName. The returned result is typically a html response.
The service typically is executed using http request and the url would be something like this
http://hd-pratapm/ucm/idcplg?IdcService=WCM_PLACEHOLDER&dataFileDocName=VIRTUSAINC&templateDocName=DETAILS_REGION_TEMPLATE
I think SS_GET_SEARCH_RESULTS service works in the similar fashion. I want to execute WCM_PLACEHOLDER service too using executeService() method. How to work with this? How can we pass parameters and capture returned results?
Regards,
Pratap

Hey Pratap,
If you are on a standard Site Studio template (page or subtemplate) you should be able to call the wcmPlaceholder idoc function directly. In fact calling the idoc function provides a lot more functionality then the service call (they locked down a few things in the service call since it is designed to be called from an external application).
The idoc call would look something like:  (taken from page 208 in this doc: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10316_01/SiteStudio/10gr4/Pdf/Site_Studio_10gR4_Designer_Guide.pdf)
As a general note when you are in idoc script and want to execute a service you call <$executeService()$> as you saw in the dynamic list. The parameters that the service runs on are in the data binder of the current request. To set parameters for an execute service you simply set idoc variables on the page before it. Example:


As for the response when you execute an idoc function, like wcmPlaceholder, that returns a String the response is immediately output to the page in the location you called the function. This would be similar in concept to a jsp scriptlet that outputs a string <%=myResponseString%>

How to make one map dependent on another ?

Assume you have 2 maps - M1 and M2
How to execute M2 automatically after successful run of M1 ?
or if I have process flows PF2 start after success of PF1 without a manual intervention
I looked at scheduling,.You can only set timing there but don't know how long your map runs.
Thank You

To make map dependant of another map you can use process flow. In process flow you can call M2 only if M1 is success. If M1 is failure you may exit the process flow.
Am not sure how it will work for process flow. May be writing a 3rd process flow and call PF1 & PF2 within it based on success status? or write some PL-Sql wraper procedure for the same???!!! give it a try.

How to make a website for desktop and mobile

I just have a question about, for example, washingtonpost.com. I know in CSS you used to be able to put that "/media" and "/screen" command in head and when the page loads, it detects the device and sends you to either mobile or desktop.
I went to WaPo and I can't seem to find that any more. So using WaPo, is this still how it's done? I just need to test a basic web page in DW4 and then test how it looks on desktop and then my Galaxy Note II so I know I'm moving along correctly before expanding out.
Any advice, help, and tips are appreciated.
Thank you.

media="screen" or media="print" is part of a css link in the head of a page and allowed one set of rules for print and another set for screens.
