HTML snippet not working

I have multiple sites that I've created with iWeb and have used the program for years. However, in an attempt to update one of my sites I encountered a road block. I was trying to embed html from my Vimeo site using the html snippet function but the regular html snippet window was not present, (i.e. no gray window to place code, no apply button. Just a blank white box). When I do copy the code it just sits on the page like text.
I've re-installed iWeb but the same scenario is occurring.
Thank you,
C

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Try the following:
1 - close iWeb.
2 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder.
3 - go to your Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete the contents.
4 - reboot.
5 - launch iWeb and try again.

Html snippet not working; created from Taco html edit Component Library

Ok, I've searched for days on the discussion board for the answer to this one..... hopefully someone can give me a couple of pointers....
I have a component created from Taco html edit Component Library that I cannot get to work as an inserted snippet into iWeb 3.0.2.
Why can't I get this to work? I've seen first hand that they work on someone else's website that she constructs in html directly, not using iWeb. Any help greatly appreciated.
Taco created three files. They are:
TSWAccordion.css
TSWDomUtils.js
TSWAccordion.js
Here is the code:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
<script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/TSWAccordion.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="Scripts/TSWDomUtils.js"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Scripts/TSWAccordion.css" />

<style type="text/css">
#myAccordion.tswAccordion

#myAccordion .tswAccordionActiveSection, #myAccordion .tswAccordionInactiveSection

<script type="text/javascript">
var accordion = tswAccordionGetForId('myAccordion');
</script>

</body>
</html>

You need to upload these three files in a folder to the root folder on your server:
TSWAccordion.css
TSWDomUtils.js
TSWAccordion.js
The folder cannot be named "Scripts" as shown in your code as you already have one of that name.
Say it is named "Accordion". You then need to give the absolute URL to these files rather than the relative one shown in the code....
http://www.yourdomainname.com/Accordion/TSWAccordion.css
http://www.yourdomainname.com/Accordion/TSWDomUtils.js
http://www.yourdomainname.com/Accordion/TSWAccordion.js

IWeb HTML Snippet NOT WORKING.

Hello!
Whenever I open iWeb and try to insert HTML Snippet, the proper HTML rectangle that has < H T M L > and a map of the world in the background appears, just like that. No edit box has appeared. When I double click it, a blue outline appears, but still no edit box to insert the HTML code into.
I've tried removing com.apple.iWeb.plist and also com.apple.iapp.plist or something along those lines, and also removing the iWeb folder from Caches, and nothing has worked.
I'm using iWeb 2.0.4, obviously.

Did you purchase iLife 09 in your attempt to upgrade to iWeb 3? If not that's why you couldn't run any of the iWeb 3 updaters. You have to have iWeb 3.0 installed from the iLife disk installed.
What was unsuccessful about trying to reinstall iWeb 2? Did you delete all receipts with iWeb in the file name located in the HD/Library/Receipts folder before reinstalling iWeb? If no, delete them and the application and reinstall.

HTML Snippets not working for most browsers

I have a page with a flash movie in the background, which uses the following code in an HTML snippet:
<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#v ersion=6,0,40,0"
WIDTH="602" HEIGHT="420" id="BGAnimation">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="BGAnimation">
<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>
<PARAM NAME=base VALUE=".">
<EMBED src="http://www.site.com/somefile" quality=high WIDTH="600" HEIGHT="420"
NAME="BG Animation" ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"
PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" base=".">
</EMBED>
</OBJECT>
On top of that, I have 3 other snippets, which are buttons, and are coded as follows:
<script type="text/javascript">
function mouseOver()
{document.rolloverone.src="rolloverpicture.png"}
function mouseOut(){
document.rolloverone.src="offpicture.png"}
</">
Of course the locations and file names have been changed, because I can't actually show people the site yet. Anyhow, it all works fine on my computer, in both Safari and Firefox, but tests on Windows computers and older macs have not been successful. The buttons are behind the flash movie (therefore invisible), or they block out part of the Flash movie, depending on which browser is used.
I should mention two more things: I have done tests where the buttons were placed off to the side of the flash movie, rather than on top of it, and the buttons looked and worked fine in all browsers.
Also, the PNG files used for the buttons are partly transparent, so you should be able to see the Flash movie below them, even the part of it that falls inside the boundaries of the button.
I have a feeling the whole "HTML Snippet" thing is not fully compatible, or they just don't like to be stacked on top of each other or something. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Any help is greatly appreciated. My last million questions have all received helpful answers here. This is a great forum!

Adding my google map via HTML snippet not working

I have made my own site where I added a google map. It has worked for some time (oddly enough only for people who use browsers other than explorer), but recently is not functioning right.
I can embed my google map using the HTML snippet function and it seems to work fine. But when I go to the site I see a picture of the google map, but it is not interective and all the info I have added is not there.
I have to say that iweb is really querkey. I had to tell it at least 7 times to connect to a different file and each time it connects to an old file. in the end the entire page had to be rebilt before it understood what I was asking it to do.
It would be nice if it just worked the way it is advertised to work.

IT seems to work now. I just had to let it think for half a day.
Thanks anyway.

IWeb HTML Snippet not working!Help!

I am new to building a website but understand where to copy and paste the HTML code to and from. However, everything I have tried will not work in the HTML Snippet. I have spent 6 hours trying to find a way to get it to work. Suggestions???

Anything from Youtube, Vimeo and other sites. Below is one of the Youtube embedded codes.
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/kCZqyWw2--M?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
This is the "old" code for the below video.
<object width="420" height="315"><param name="movie" value="//www.youtube.com/v/kCZqyWw2--M?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0"></para m><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/kCZqyWw2--M?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="420" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>
Neither of these will work. The "old" code will make my html box turn white but nothing else happens.
Any suggestions?

Home button in HTML Help Not Working

My Home button in HTML Help Not Working.
Also the Home option from the Options menu does not work. I receive the "This program cannot display the webpage" error.
I have the correct file name (titlepg.htm) in the Advanced Windows Ptoperties "Default" field and the "Home" field. However, I still receive the "This program cannot display the webpage" error.
How can I correct this situation? Thanks, your help is appreciated!

Can you post a couple of screen captures please?
One where you show the Project Explorer with the desired topic in view. Another where you show the dialog where you specify the Home page destination.
Another thing you may wish to try is to define a totally new window, assign the values there and ensure you point to the window in the Single Source Layout recipe.
Oh, and one other thing. Are you using RoboHelp HTML or RoboHelp for Word?
Cheers... Rick

HTML Snippet was working on iWeb 08 but not now on iWeb 09

Having upgraded to iWeb 09 from iWeb 08, suddenly I am unable to upload slideshows using a third party program called "SlideShowPro for Lightroom" successfully. They embed in iWeb fine but once they export they do not show up online. So, in short the slideshow shows up online but do not show up embedded onto the final iWeb page.
Link to unembedded slideshow (which works fine)...
http://www.jonnyback.com/lightroom_slideshows/markandemma/loader.swf
Link to website without slideshow showing up...
http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma3
Code used to embed slideshow in HTML Snippet inside of iWeb 09 (which previsouly worked in iWeb 08)
http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma3code
Finally, here is a screen grab of iWeb09 showing my site and how the slideshow is fine in iWeb but isn't once it is exported...
http://www.jonnyback.com/downloads/iWeb_Screenshot.jpg
Here is an example of a page which I uploaded from iWeb 08, and it works fine, but only because I exported it to a folder whilst I was still using iWeb 08...
http://www.jonnyback.com/mattandanna
The Slideshow also shows up here fine...
http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma3files/widget0markup.html
And iWeb can not get a native iWeb Photo Gallery loading online in a similar way, it just doesn't show up online either...
http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma2iwebphoto
I've tried loading the page on a different server with the same issue, the Slideshow Pro gallery just does not show.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated,
Jonny

Thank you Roddy, I have done my homework but it isn't wokring yet.
In the iWeb native Photo Gallery page, I have come up with the scenario again where it works in a subfolder...
http://www.jonnyback.com/Site/markandemma2iwebphototest.html
But not on the normal website domain...
http://www.jonnyback.com/markandemma2iwebphototest.html
As a check I did find out that the Slideshow still doesn't work with the subfolder "/Site" scenario...

How bizarre!
Any ideas?

Exporting Crystal Report to HTML is not working in Windows 7

Hi Sir,
I am trying to export Crystal Report to HTML format using VB.NET code. Functionality is working fine at Windows XP Environment (Save to Disk, Open an Application and Email Attachment). But the same functionality is not working at Windows 7 Environment (both 32-Bit as well as 64-Bit).

Please can anyone share your valuable thoughts or ideas reg. this.
Thanks in Advance

Run this code to reproduce the issue.Which issue?
It looks like inheritance is broken in the component hierarchy for JFrame in Windows 7 JDK 1.6.0_23-b05. The only thing remotely related to inheritance in your code snippet is the WindowListener, which does little. See camickr's advice about built-in exit management.
EDIT - using the post title as a clue, I realize you may be talking about the component hierarchy, and whether the contentPane's background is visible through the upper layers. Instead of guessing, I'd prefer you describe your "issue" accurately (observed vs expected behavior).

HTML snippet not publishing correctly in iWeb

I am attempting to add phpicalendar to my website by using iFrames. After adding the correct code inside of the HTML snippet window, the Calendar shows up inside of iWeb correctly. I then publish the updated page. When I go to the website, the calendar does not show up on the page.
I know the phpicalendar is working correctly since I can redirect my browser to it on my site and it shows correctly... It just is not working on my page. Below is my website and the calendar page:
http://www.youbelongatlife.org/AthensLifeFellowship/Calendar.html
http://www.youbelongatlife.org/AthensLifeFellowship/php/month.php

The code I am using for the HTML snippet is as follows:
<iframe src=
"http://www.youbelongatlife.org/AthensLifeFellowship/php"
style="width:1015px; height:800px;
border-width:0px;
border-color:#990033;

ClickToGoToWebPage snippet not working

hi,
i'm having a problem with the ClickToGoToWebPage snippet because it works while i am in a preview mode, but once i publish my file, nothing happens when i click on the button. I tried created a simple file to test out the problem. i choose actionscript 3.0 with flash player 11.4. i wrote some text and then converted it to a symbol with the instance name as: test. i embedded the go to webpage snippet with the proper instance name and it works perfectly when previewing, but not when published as an HTML file.
I am working on a recently bought flash cs6 and doubt that an update would help (which i am not sure how to do). the version is 12.0.2.529. i am using windows 8.
here's what's in my actions layer:
stop()
test.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, fl_ClickToGoToWebPage);
function fl_ClickToGoToWebPage(event:MouseEvent):void
          navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.adobe.com"), "_blank");
on an unrelated note, why can't i just write text and then put the web address in the "Link" text box under the text options? i've tried this, but it does not work as well. what is the "Link" function?
if anybody has any insight, it would be appreciated.
thanks

i tried doing that, but my published interactive movies still won't link to
the internet. here is a screenshot of the files i uploaded. 1) being the
actual flash file 2) being the publish HTML file.   I also tried debugging

talking about.

Export to exchange folder in HTML format not working

Hi All
I am trying to export report in HTML format directly to exchange folder and sending it as mail. I am using below code for it but it is not working for html format only. I am able to export other formats (rpt, pdf, word, excel...) using below snippet.
Crazy thing is that it doesn't give any error or exception. It just ignores the code. It will great if someone can sneak in below code and point out what I am doing wrong.
Dim destination As ExportDestination = ExportDestination.ExchangeFolder
Dim options As New HTMLFormatOptions
options.HTMLFileName = "report1.rpt"
options.HTMLBaseFolderName = System.IO.Path.GetTempPath()
ExportToExchangeFolder(format, options)
Private Sub ExportToExchangeFolder(ByVal format As ExportFormat, ByVal options As ExportFormatOptions)
    Dim myExchangeOpts As ExchangeFolderDestinationOptions = ExportOptions.CreateExchangeFolderDestinationOptions()
    Dim myExportOpts As New ExportOptions
    myExchangeOpts.DestinationType = ExchangeDestinationType.ExchangePostDocMessage
    myExchangeOpts.Profile = "Outlook"
    myExchangeOpts.FolderPath = "[email protected]#Drafts"
    myExportOpts.ExportDestinationOptions = myExchangeOpts
    myExportOpts.ExportDestinationType = ExportDestinationType.ExchangeFolder
    myExportOpts.ExportFormatType = ExportFormatType.HTML32
    myExportOpts.ExportFormatOptions = options
    report.Export(myExportOpts)
End Sub

Hi Saurabh,
The logic does not make sense.... Open a report up in CR Designer and export to HTML, notice it creates a few folders and a bunch of files, depending on the options you select.
It's not one file so what you should do is export to disk, use a third party API set to zip up the files and folders and then e-mail the zip file to the server/user.
Actually what you should do is not give the users that option, PDF works for viewing through a browser so use it, easiest way to do this.
And because you are attempting to send HTML through E-mail there are all sorts of security issues sending that format and lots of permissions required. Best to avoid it.

HTML Snippets not showing on online site.

Hi, I really hope someone can help me. Basically my Html snippets/widgets are not appearing on my online website. They are there when i publish to my desktop but as soon as i publish it online they disappear?..I can however see them in the public html content file but they seem to be in a widget html file of their own and not part of the main html page source file.
Is this why i can't see them?..Do i need to move the html widget file to view it as part of the page.
All suggestions welcome..MAny thanks.
Ali

Thanks, I did need to do what you suggested and it has me half way there. The only thing is now the graphics of the html button i created are not showing only the 'text of the paypal link' where the button should be, the link works, it's just the buttons not there..
Anymore suggests please.
Thanks,
Ali
