How to manage spry menus in DW cs3

Hi
I have build one spry menu in DW cs3 and I sort of got the hang of it so I decide to build another one on another site in the same root folder and that's where I run in to all kinds of problems
I have build the menu the way I like it but is not working properly I have saved the SSS in txt in case it comes useful later
I haven't bean able to find this answer question in any tutorial
The question I have is
1 how to keep the two SpyAsset folders separate and do I have to? and if I have to, how to do that.
2 by building a new menu and saving it where does it get saved and sure I care?
Thank you.... Mike

Right now I have all 6 sites in one root folder does this mean I have to separate all?
Yes. Go to Site > Manage Sites > New...
I currently maintain about 10 web sites, each separately defined and in their own site root folder.
make a duplicate SpryAssets folder where do I get it from
DW will create a SpryAssets folder for you when you insert a spry menu into that site.

How to manage multiple menus in dvd studio

Hi.
Im trying to do 2 things in dvd studio pro 4 that i cant figure out. Any help will be appreciated.
1. If you have multiple menus, and you want them all to link up to a main menu page when you hit
the menu button on the remote, how do you do that? How do you have each page return to the main menu page when the button is hit?
2. If I have a button that includes a video that loops on a second menu page, I want the page to return to the main manu page when the video in the button finishes.. say for example, after 1 minute I want the 2nd page to automatically return to the main menu page,
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks

Quick way, highlight the disc icon for the project in the outline view then set the Jumps for Menu (and Title) in inspector. Other ways of doing this but this should do what you want
2. If I have a button that includes a video that loops on a second menu page, I want the page to return to the main manu page when the video in the button finishes.. say for example, after 1 minute I want the 2nd page to automatically return to the main menu page,

Set the duration of the menu to 1 minute then set the At End action in inspector to timeout and set to the menu you want to go to.

How to insert dropdown menus since Spry menus have been removed? [was: hi]

Hello. You've done a very problem thing by deleting a drop menus from Dreamweaver. Now I just have a not suitable plugins or must to pay for a using..If I was a very important customer, would require the immediate to return the spry assets.

Spry menus are terrible. You should not use them. That's why Adobe abandoned them in 2012. There's no chance of them coming back. Below are some free alternatives you can use.

Using images in Spry menus

Can someone please point me to instructions on how to incorporate button images in horizontal Spry menus?

Here's the working model for the menu I created using images for the main menu tabs: http://mmfc.org/HomePage_CleanUp/index_working.html. And here is the style sheet: http://mmfc.org/HomePage_CleanUp/SpryAssets/working.css.
I have one remaining problem, and hope someone can help.
There are three states/images for the main menu tabs: normal state, hover state (when the cursor is over the tab), and visible state (when a submenu is open and the cursor is over a submenu item).
In OS10.6.4/Safari, it works correctly:
Normal state
Hover state
Visible state
In Windows XP/IE 6, the 3rd state works incorrectly -- the hover state doesn't get replaced by the visible state:
In OS10.6.4/Opera and OS10.6.4/Firefox, it also works incorrectly -- but this time the hover state gets replaced by the hover color, not the visible state image:
For reference, I've copied the CSS below.

Help with Dreamweaver CS5 spry menus. Submenus are not showing.

Hello.
I am working on a new website, and added 2 vertical spry menus to the page (left hand side under SEARCH). All of my submenus were working properly except for the fact that I couldn't see the entire list once it dropped down past the container window. I tried adding "overflow: visible" to the ul.MenuBarVertical ul AND ul.MenuBarVertical ul li and all of my submenus disappeared. Both spry menus were saved with different names. I tried UNDO multiple times, but they are still not working. HELP! I really don't want to have to go back and re-create these 2 menus.
Thank you.
Heres the link to my website
http://www.advertools.net/pmgdemo/index.html
P.S. I am Mac based and have only viewed my site on Safari, so I'm not sure how this looks on IE or any other browsers.

I looked at your linked site from a PC on Chrome 12, Firefox 4 and IE9. Your menus show albeit that they sometimes overlap a little in an unpleasant (but workable) way. I have not checked with Safari, need to get an updated copy.
So the problem does not show up in the browser.
Is the problem with Contribute?
PS: You submenus show out horizontally, not vertically - is that what you intended?

Spry menus - using images for buttons

A search of the forums shows two approaches, to use an image
for a button in a Spry menu.
One of them uses HTML to put an <img> into the
<li>. Here is the example I found cited [contributed by
arandlett - though said there not to work in IE7].
<ul class="MenuBarVertical" id="MenuBar1">
<li><img src="images/bullet.png" align="left"
/><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu"
href="index.htm">home</a></li>
<li><img src="images/bullet.png" align="left"
/><a href="#">About</a> </li>
</ul>
The other advises "find "background-color" and change it to
"background-image: url(link/to/image)" " [contributed by The only
RaM].
Underlying of course, is the question, how does the HTML
interplay (or not!) with the Spry javascript?
By this time, there must be pretty wide experience. After
all, putting interesting buttons in the popups/dropdowns is in many
ways what this is about.
We would be quite appreciative to learn what experience
indicates, now, is best practice. Or, does it depend, on ... ?
Thanks in advance for your help, David Allen

Let me add a note to my own post.
We would still be delighted to hear others' experience, with
images in Spry menus. One thing does emerge with a little further
look: The Spry menu is suited to using the _same_ image for each
button. If the desire is to vary that image (such as to use an
unusual font, so that the text changes on each image), then
Fireworks clearly is the tool of choice.
Again, we would be pleased to hear other experiences, David
Allen

Spry Menus on Spry Tabbed Panels?

Hi,
I'm designing a site that has major tabs at the top, each of which takes the visitor to an appropriate section of the site... each with a default section overview page and a horizontal nav menu that's appropriate for that section. (This design is similar to going to a site like AT&T and clicking on top tabs for Home, Small Business or Enterprise. Once you've done so, the menu below then presents links appropriate to the Home, Small Business or Enterprise products.) I've been trying to implement this by putting instances of Spry Menus in Spry Tabbed Panels within the TabbedPanelsContentGroup div. Specifically, I have the MenuBarHorizontal class is each TabbedPanelsContent div/class.
I have the basic layout working, but the wiring is mystifying me. Clicking the various tabs indeed presents the correct corresponding menus. But I also need to figure out how to make clicking a section tab go to the section overview page (which happens to also correspond the first menu item, "Overview", in each section). There's no real <a href> kind of option that's apparent in conjunction with the TabbedPanelTabs in the TabbedPanelsGroup. Is there a way to force a particular page to display when switching tabs? Or am I trying to use the wrong tool for the job and there's a better technical approach to implementing this design?
I've tried David Powers' blog entry re "Opening Specific Tabs and Panels from Another Page" (http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/spry_url_utils.php), but it describes exactly what the title implies.
Thanks!
Jeffrey

Hi, Jeffrey,
I think I'm going to need to diagram this out!
Let's see...when you say "major tabs at the top" are you referring to a separate MenuBar or are you speaking of Spry Tabbed Panels?
You of course realize that if you are speaking of Spry Tabbed Panels, that EVERYTHING on the panels is on one page. If that is your main organization, yeah, it's a little hairy.
Now, if you have a "normal" one-level set of nav buttons that each takes you to a page that contains a set of Tabbed Panels for that "department," that will get you where you need to be without quite as much mind-blowing follow-the-wire through the wall hijinks, if you know what I mean.
Here is a site that I put together using Spry Tabbed Panels: http://www25.uua.org/uuhs/index.html Although the top "tabs" nav looks like Tabbed Panels tabs, the Tabbed Panels don't start until you get inside the site, and there I use Vertical tabs (on the left side) and on the Panels have put lots of Spry Accordions.
By using this technique, you have an effective "landing page" on each "department" linked to with the top navigation buttons.
Best of luck, and watch out for short-circuits!

How to position spry meny?

When I create a horizontal spry menu, it's placed
automatically at a certain place and I can't get it to move. How
can I get it to be displayed in center or to the right instead of
to the left?
Regards Kine

Spry is not controlled like a normal HTML element on a page
like a table because it is done using CSS. There is a .CSS file in
the SpryAssets folder where you will have to edit the Spry Menu. I
am going to link a few documents for you to take a look.
http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp
- This is a good tutorial to look over which explains CSS.
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/CenteringHorizontalMenuBarSample.h tml
- This page tells you how to modify the alignment of a Spry Menu.
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/menu_bar/index.html
- This is the documentation for Spry Menus with a lot of
explanations of the CSS code
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/MenuBarSample.html
- This is a more advanced example if you want to look at using
images or different styles down the road.
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/home.html
- This is the link to the official Adobe Spry homepage. Here you
will find updates to the Spry software in addition to links to the
official Adobe Spry forums.
Hope this all helps you out.

Accessibility for spry menus and tabs?

How do you activate key navigation for accessibility for spry menus and tabs? What needs to be done in order to use menu for persons with screen readers to tab through?

Have a look here http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/data_api/apis/menubar.html inparticular the section on Constructor Options.
I hope this helps.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX
AJAX: Asynchronous JavaScript and XML
With Ajax, web applications can retrieve data from the server
asynchronously in the background without interfering with the
display
and behavior of the existing page. Data is retrieved using
the
XMLHttpRequest object or through the use of Remote Scripting
in browsers
that do not support it. Despite the name, the use of
JavaScript, XML,
and asynchrony is not required.
So, maybe as the sub-menu is being exposed without a page
refresh it is
considered AJAX? I myself wouldn't call it AJAX.

How to Manage the Resource Master in Primavera Enterprise Version

We are using P6 enterprise version in our company having a central database. We had created our own unique resources and standardised across the enterprise and is Admin protected. However we often have to import some schedules sent by our consultant/client. In those schedules they have their own resources.
So when we import these schedules, it also imports the resources along with it and pollutes our resource master.
Can anyone let me know, how to manage such a situation.
Regards

We have met this issue. You have few ways to deal with it, but each has its own +ve and -ve.
1- You may create a separate "Working" db into which you can import those files and keep them there only. Your master db shall be used for maters and your own program only.
2- You may do the same for checking the resourses, vet them before importing into the final db
3- P3 and MSP importation allows you to select the node to which the resources will be located. We have created a resource node called "Imported Resources" and dumped all those resources into it. Our users don't have access to that node so those resources can only be used on the imported program and can't be assigned to any other program / activity
4- Enforce your supply chain to use the same resource list. We managed to do that for our main and subcontractors. That formed part of their contracts.

How I Managed to Install Windows 8.1 Pro on an iMac 27-inch, Late 2013

As is typical with many of my Boot Camp installs, this one did *not* goes as smoothly as planned. This installation was particularly troublesome, so I thought I would share how I managed to set up Boot Camp on a brand new iMac (27-inch, Late 2013) using a Windows 8.1 Pro DVD and an external Apple SuperDrive. These are the steps I took:
Download Boot Camp Support Software 5.1.5640 (http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1721)
Copy Boot Camp Support Software to empty MS-DOS (FAT)-formatted USB key
Run Boot Camp Assistant and select third option only (Install Windows 7 or later version)
Computer would reboot after Boot Camp Assistant finished but would boot back into Mac environment and not continue Windows installation
Boot computer holding down option key and select Windows (with DVD icon) and go through initial setup process (could go as far as trying to format Boot Camp partition as NTFS and then got stuck)
Quit Windows installer and reboot computer holding down option key and select EFI Boot
Run Windows installer
These same steps worked for another iMac (same model) that I set up later the same day.

Note: These types of discs or activities are not supported by DVD or CD sharing:
DVD movies.
Audio CDs.
Copy protected discs such as game discs.
Install discs for an operating system such as Microsoft Windows (for use with Boot Camp), or Mac OS X.
Burn a CD or DVD

How to manage one wsp and dll for multiple clients in farm environment

1. There is a product which is developed using C sharp , jquery,CSS and sharepoint object models which have been packaged into .wsp file. Whenever we introduce new functionality to the product we used to branch the
previous code as a version , say Version 1.0 and new functionality of the product will in another solution. This is how we are managing the code in TFS as versions. Each newer version will have new functionalities. We do not give latest functionality for all
the clients. Each client is having its own version of functionality. Technically in order to access the functionality, the wsp solution should be present in the solution repository which is available in SharePoint central administrator site. This solution
will be deployed on the client’s site. We are following the above process in SharePoint standalone installation where we used to purchase dedicated server per client and installed sql, SharePoint foundation 2010 as standalone installation and adding the client
related version of the code to the solution repository. Later host on the site which is created for that client purpose. This process is same for all the clients where we purchase individual server for each client .
Now we want to host our product in farm environment of sharepoint foundation 2010 where we are going to try 3 level architecture.
• SQL Server-In this sever we are going to install sql server 2008R2 standard edition. Which should serve the database service for all the web applications/sitecollections which we are going to create in Web front end server.
• Application server- In this server we are going to install the sharepoint as farm and will install search server express for serving search functionality for our product
• Web front end server- In this server we are going to add this server to Sharepoint farm which we have created in application server. Here we are going to create web applications and site collections for all the clients.
In this scenario how to manage multiple versions of same wsp solution?
Another major issue w.r.t the architecture of the product and new approach for client deployment as follow.We have CSS, jquery files for serving the functionality.These files have been mapped to 14 hive folder.If any changes we do one of the jquery file or
css file which is meant for latest version and not for old version, then how to manage this new functionality for that particular css or jquery file in 14 hive folder, since there is only one 14 hive folder. What is the best practice to make this happen? Another
thing is, how to manage dll files for individual client?

It sounds like you have a farm scoped solution at work. In that case you can only have a single instance of it per farm, you'd have to branch each version so they appear to be seperate solutions entirely (thus ruining your clients upgrade process).
Bluntly i don't think a single farm can manage all your user environments.
