How to stop "Create New CSS Rule" dialog box

Made the mistake of allowing an Apple tech talk me into an OS X "Install in place". He assured me that all application settings would remain the same as before.
Now, when holding down the "shift" key and typing a word in all caps (in Design View), the "Create new CSS Rule" dialog box pops up and writes:
<span style="font-size: 14px; margin-center: 1px; text-align: left; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px; padding-bottom: 0px; line-height: 1.3em; margin-top: 3px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><font color="#006666">TEXT</font>
I am trying to find the setting in preferences to disable this, and since the behavior started after OS X "install in place", something must have changed. I just want to type in design view and not have to deal with Dreamweaver overriding what I'm doing.

I am attempting to type some text in "design", not "code" view. I want the text to be caps. I hold down the shift key, type the first letter, and immediately the "New CSS Rule" dialog box pops up. I cancel, but the code...
<span style="font-size: 14px; margin-center: 1px; text-align: left; font-weight: bold; margin-bottom: 6px; padding-bottom: 0px; line-height: 1.3em; margin-top: 3px; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><font color="#006666">TEXT</font>
...is created anyway.I just want to type a word into an existing div with no changes or dialog boxes or any input from Dreamweaver. I was able to do that before, and cannot do it now. There must be some setting that I am missing in preferences.

Developer: web inspector how do I add new css rules

I have been using web inspector for quite some time. It was a regular part of my development workflow, however, I was surprised when the safari team totally re-vamped the tool in safari 6.
You use to be able to click on the menu in the styling section of the tool bar and click "Add new rule". Now it appears you can no longer add css rules in this way. Which is a bummer because I used this feature all the time.
You also, use to be able to double click for a new rule when in the actual stylesheet under the Resources tab. I can no longer do this either. For the life of me, I can't figure out why the safari team would get rid of these valuable options.
Someone please help.
These options must still exist, as they are invaluable when working with css in the browser. Does anyone know how to add a new style rule. I read the documentation and I don't see anything about removing this functionality.
The only way I can find to add a new rule, is through the snippet bar, which is kind of a pain as you have to add the <style> tags every time you add a new rule.
Also, I can't figure out how to view and elements pseudo classes (i.e. :hover , :checked, etc).
I have to say, it is a little frustrating as I don't clearly see the benefits of their redesign and it just seems harder to use. It kind of feels like they reskinned and rearranged things just to make it look new and didn't really think through how developers use this tool.
Does anyone else feel this way with the new safari?
Maybe I will see the light after a couple of days. I hope so because I am partial to using safari.

How do you create a css rule?

How do you create a new CSS rule in Dreamweaver?
I took the Dreamweaver class 3-4 years ago, and now have to design a website. I cannot figure out how to create a css rule. The instructions Adobe gives do not make sense. Under format>>CSS Styles, there is no "new" option like the instructions say there should be.
I cannot figure out how to do it using the CSS properties pane either.
Every method they give does not jive with the options in the program.
I did create a style sheet for my site.

Which version of the software are you using?
The tutorials are version-centric now owing to the many "improvements" DW has seen to its interface in the past 12-24 months. So if you're reading a tutorial for an earlier version than what you have, you'll be confused. And vice versa if you use a modern tutorial with an older version.
I prefer to work directly with the code. It's infinitely faster than the cumbersome panels. Also the code hinting features in DW are very helpful.

How can I Create custom pop up dialog box with question/answer

I need to create a pop up dialog box that asks a question and accepts an answer input. The form needs to be able to be emailed out (not server based) Can someone help me do this? I am a designer, with very (Very!) limited coding skills. Looks like the windjack program that I keep running into does not work with Acrobat X.
Thanks for any help you may have

I am not able to help you with the current method you are using - which seems an odd one in that you are using a menu script to do this????
I would have done the page completely differently - instead of slicing it up into a vastly complex table, I'd have added the image to the page and then used an imagemap. Then I'd have used this script to add the popups (as toolitps) that you can be as simple or as complex as you wish: http://boxover.swazz.org/.

How to stop certreq from prompting a dialog box to press OK or CANCEL?

I have an issue guys and I hope someone has a simple answer.
After all of my destruction of installing, configuring and deploying PKI. I have finally narrowed it down to one issue I’m having.
When I run the following command line, CertReq -new -f %certpath%\%input%.inf %certpath%\%input%.req . A popup box with the option to press OK or Cancel. If I press OK, my *.req file is created. If I try to use the -q, I receive an
error:
ConfigMgrWorkgroupClientCertificate
: The system cannot find the file specified. 0x80070002 (WIN32: 2)
The –q is shown on technet
http://technet.microsoft.com/library/cc725793.aspx
I also use CERTREQ in this command and I receive the same response. press OK or Cancel.
certreq -submit -f -Username abc\testuser1 -p P@ssw0rd -PolicyServer "https://lnyceppkis01.abc.com/KeyBasedRenewal_ADPolicyProvider_CEP_UsernamePassword/service.svc/CEP" -config "https://lnycespkis01.abc.com/IssuingCA-LNYSUBCAPKIS01_CES_UsernamePassword/service.svc/CES"

You are correct that -q will suppress user input, but the syntax is important. You don't say WHERE in the command you are using the -q. It must be after the first verb (submit, new, policy, etc..). But I tried your default line (witout the -q) and I do not
get a prompt. Can you be more descriptive of what the box is asking when you say OK and Cancel? What is it indicating?
The correct syntax for using the -q option is:
CertReq
-new -q -f %certpath%\%input%.inf %certpath%\%input%.req

How do I create an event driven dialog box that allows the user to input constants into my program?

My goal is to have a box pop up when the executable for my program is run. The box will have a bunch of fields, and an OK and Cancel button. Ideally, the user will be made to change some of the values, and warnings (with another dialogue box) will pop up if the values are nonsensical, allowing the user to proceed or go back and change them. The constants will be clustered, to be used later in other VIs.
Does anyone have a good template for this sort of VI? I looked at this article: http://www.ni.com/tutorial/8768/en/, but it doesn't go into enough detail to be helpful to me.

This should get you started down the pathJust replace User data with your cluster and do the data integrity check in the value change event use a simple one button dialog to notify the user which values are out of compliance and disable and grey the OK button untill all conditions are met.

How do I turn-off the CSS rule dialog?

I would like to know how to turn-off the CSS rule dialog.
I support a user who has been using DreamWeaver for years and was recently forced to upgrade to the new version. None of the hundreds of files in the site he maintains use CSS. While I recognize it is a "better" and "more efficient" way to do things --- IF you're a sofware engineer -- it is not even close to being worth the cost to revise the entire site and retrain this user.
So, how can i turn off, not just the pop-up, but how I can tell DW to just go ahead and do it the old-fashioned, embedded in the HTML way of doing things?
All the user wants to do is change the color of some keywords, css is overkill when that's all he's doing.
We'd go back to the previous version except the office was forced onto Vista and the older version won't run.

ADDING FONT TAGS:
By David Powers from the help doc:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7ce ba.html
You won't see anywhere to enter such information in the HTML Property inspector. Dreamweaver CS4 does not support <font> tags, except in Code view. The W3C deprecated <font> tags ten years ago, so CS4 decided to get rid of them from the main user interface.
If you want to add styles to a short selection of text, you have two options:
1. Create embedded styles in the <head> of the page.
2. Create inline styles.
Both are done using the Property inspector in CSS mode (click the CSS button on the left). Select the text you want to style. How and where the style is created depends on what you select in the Targeted Rule field.
If you select <New CSS Rule>, you can then select the font, size, or colour in the Property inspector. As soon as you choose one of these, you will be prompted to choose a class name, and the location of the new style. To embed the style in the <head> of the page, select "This document only".
The name of the class will appear in the Targeted Rule field, and you can add other values to it.
If you select <New Inline Style> in the Targeted Rule field, you can apply any of the properties in the Property inspector. This wraps your text selection with a <span> tag that contains the CSS properties as an inline style, e.g., <span style="font-family: 'Palatino Linotype', 'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif; font-size: 24px;">Styled text</span>.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7ce ba.html
Note: If you select text in Code view, you can apply font tags by selecting Format > Font from the main menu. This works only in Code view; selecting Format > Font in Design view launches the New CSS Rule dialog box.

Dreamweaver Help | Create a CSS rule

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/create-new-css-rule.html

Does anybody know how to place a new rule just after or before existing rule witch you do not know where is located among hundreds of rules in CSS Panel "ALL". Now, I have to search that rule manually in CSS 'ALL' click on it and that create a new rule to plase the new rule before. It is a nightmare to organize css this way!. What is the best way to do it?

Create a new css rule

Hi
If I place my curser over a div tag in the code window why in the New Css rule
window, in the option "choose where this rule will be defined" do I sometimes only
have the option of this document only and others the choice of any attached css file?
thanks
Ian

Hi
perhaps I wasn't clear apologies.
If I go to a web page and place my curser in the middle of <div id="masthead>
and then in the css styles panel select "new css rule" when the window opens by default
it normaly says:-
Rule definition...
Choose where your rule will be defined
and then it shows my current cssfile name with a drop downbox for any other
attatched sheets. As in the tabs at the top of the window
However some times when I do this the box listing my css files only lists in "this document only"
and selecting the drop down box shows no other css files. But the css files are shown on the tabs
at the top opf the screen
I wondered if anyone had any idea as to why?
thanks
Ian

On Dreamweaver CC how do I get to the css rule definition box?

On the other Dreamweavers when I wanted to edit a css, I selected the css and clicked on the pencil icon to open the css rule definition box.
The only way I find to get acess to the css rule definition box on the new CC is when I am creating a new div and then there is a option for a new style and it opens the box.
My question is how do I get to the box once the rule is created? the pencil icon is not there anymore.
Not good breaking workflows Adobe, some folks have work in progress...
Please help, thanks.

I can't remember the last time I used DW's CSS panels. If you know CSS, why not use code view? DW's Code Hinting is very good & it's much quicker to edit code directly in the style sheet than it is in CSS panels.
Nancy O.
That depends a bit on the situation. For example, in Netbeans I use the live connection with Chrome (embedded view or not) and I can then select an item in the live view in Chrome, which opens the css properties panes. These are quite similar to DW.
By changing the values in the css properties pane the changes in values are automatically saved in the css file, and visually updated in realtime in Chrome.
It can be very handy to quickly change the position or margin/padding/size of an element this way without having to switch back and forth to your css. Bit similar to the inspect element pane in FF and Chrome, and the changes are immediately saved.
When I still used DW I used it in the same manner for quick visual changes - and no reason to rummage through my css code.
In short, those css inspector panes can work quite efficiently when you need to polish the css code.
Granted, I would never use it while working on the main css code - but for slight and quick changes it can be a very handy feature.

How to stop modal blocking in adf dialogs?

How to stop modal blocking in adf dialogs?
blocking="false" has no effect.
<af:commandLink id="showRequestDetail"
action="dialog:guide.sa_requestDetail" partialSubmit="true"
actionListener="#{shareAccessRequestDetail.load}"
useWindow="true" blocking="false" immediate="true">

Scratch that...useWindow was there -- it just wasn't popping a window when a non-dialog action was specified.
<af:commandLink action="userDetail" partialSubmit="true"
windowHeight="600" windowWidth="500" actionListener="#{userDetail.load}"
useWindow="true">

The above code does not pop a new window despite the fact that useWindow is true.

Creating A CSS Rule For Version 13.1

I am new to Dreamweaver CS6 or any Dreamweaver and I am trying to create a new CSS Rule for Version 13.1. I am taking a class and the material is written for ver 12 and not 13. Does Version 13 not have the Classic View as well.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mark

It was worth a try.
As Jon points out, a lot has changed in Dreamweaver since CS6 was first released in May 2012. There have been two updates for Creative Cloud subscribers, which made significant changes to the interface. Dreamweaver CC was released in June this year, and has since had one update.
The whole idea of the Creative Cloud is to release new features as they become available, which makes documentation and training courses difficult to follow. I have just finished recording Adobe Dreamweaver CC: Learn by Video, which is due to be published next month. It's based on Dreamweaver 13.1, so it will be up to date for a few months - and then a new version will almost certainly be released, which will make at least part of it out of date.
Rather than learning the mechanics of Dreamweaver, it's important to learn the basics of HTML and CSS. Once you understand them, it will be a lot easier to find your way around the Dreamweaver interface without being constantly confused.
Good luck.
