HTTP name of pages in dreamweaver
Hi,
I decided to build the majority of my website in flash. I.e. build different components (such as a calender) in flash and then I planned to import each component into dreamweaver on a seperate page and publish. The only trouble with this is that I have tried to link pages together using code in flash that goes to a specific web page. How do I name my webpages in dreamweaver so that it will go to that page.
E.g. I have created a link in a flash document to www.mywebsite.com/about - how do I name this page in dreamweaver so that it links to this page?
Cheers,
That seems simple enough.
Thanks for your help Joey...much appreciated.
Quick question though: do I have to create a folder in the root directory on the local server, or my website server, or both?

Is there a way to LIST OUT all of the active images that are currently being used on a page in Dreamweaver? Or do I have to click each one and write down the image name by hand?

Viewing asp pages in Dreamweaver
Developed an aspx page in Visual Studeo, but cannot view the
page in Dreamweaver's design mode - only shows me the code
view.Also, I went into manage sites, coldfusion8 tutorial (the name of the site)
And in the site definitions box I have:
Local Root Folder: C:\xampp\htdocs\Coldfusion8
tutorial\cf8gettingstarted\tutorial\
Default image Folder: C:\xampp\htdocs\Coldfusion8
tutorial\cf8gettingstarted\tutorial\images\
HTTP address:

OMG how stupid am I? (dont answer that)...
I copied files to that directory and I can view them now by pressing f12 in
DW.
But can you explain why you think the browser jumps to index_content when I
call for index.cfm
Thanks for all of your help everyone. Sorry If I wasted anybody's time. I
thought I had tried that but, in the confusion, it looks like I didnt, or
something.
Thanks again
Now I can start learning how CF handles databases.
If you know of any good tutorials for a total novice, if you could let me
know, that would be great!
Many Thanks! -
Apply template to html pages in dreamweaver 2004
How do I apply a template to html pages in dreamweaver 2004?
The template has editable regoins. Will this effect it?
Why do I get an orphan message when I try to apply the
template to new pages?You don't want to apply templates to pages. Instead use FILE
| New > Page
from Template > site name > template name, spawn a new
page, and use this
page for the content. THis is not really an issue for a brand
new page, but
if the page already has content when you apply the template,
you'll see what
I mean.
You are being confused by a) not understanding root relative
vs document
relative links, and b) not understanding how DW previews
files.
If I have a document with a link to an image that looks like
this -
<img src="/images/foo.gif"...
That's what's called a root relative link.
If I preview that document in DW, then the browser gets the
document, sees
the leading "/" and reads that as the root of the hard drive,
since the
browser has no idea where the root of the site is. Thus, the
image is
broken in the preview.
If I have temp files enabled, then DW will secretly convert
the file being
previewed into a temporary file, and hand that to the
browser. This temp
file has had all root relative links converted to document
relative links
(as you will see by looking at the code in the browser), and
has had all
include files actually embedded in the page, and has had all
external CSS
and js markup embedded in the page. In other words, DW has
made the
document into a stand-alone page.
If you do not have temp files enabled, all of these links
would be broken on
preview.
Now - if you are using root relative links, AND you have temp
files enabled,
AND you click away from the previewed document, then all of
your links will
be broken, since DW has not made that linked file into a temp
file. This is
what you are seeing.
So - if you want to click away on preview, then you must use
document
relative links for the site -
<img src="../images/foo.gif"... (for example)
These will still work on preview since the browser knows how
to determine
the current file's location and how to follow that path.

thx for the helpHi
To get you started in creating web sites, try one of the tutorials from this page http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/, or if you prefer video tutorials try http://tv.adobe.com/product/dreamweaver/.
As for your first question do as you say, create the page and do not link to it from within your main content.

How to add an extra page to the index.html page on dreamweaver CS6?
How to add an extra page to the index.html page on dreamweaver CS6?
Index.html = your domain's home page. There is only one home page per site.
To create a new page from your index, go to File > SaveAs > filename.html. Repeat for other site pages. Add links on your index page that lead to other site pages.

Adding keywords to a web page with Dreamweaver 8
Hi,
Does anyone of you know how to add keywords to a web page
with Dreamweaver 8? I want the link to the web page shows up when
people google the keywords. I pulled out the instructions from
ehow.com and followed the instructions by using the HTML Keywords
function in the Insert menu. I tested it on Google website by
entering the keywords but it did not work.
Any clues would be helpful.
Thanks,
ShirleyLet's put it this way - those sites I have that are highly
ranked do not
have any meta keywords on them. So - you do the math....

[Locked] Centering an oversized web page in dreamweaver
for a web programming class
an extra credit challenge is to fix all found issues with some example web pages in dreamweaver
in the first example page the most obvious problem is that the page has oversized dimensions
which are 1680 x 1050
so the main issue that it creates is a problem with the horizontal centering
I'm looking for a coding/ script solution in dreamweaver that will automatically center the page when uploaded to the web
I've attempted several web tutorials and so forth but have yet to come across something that actually works for me
I am aware that this could be due to incorrect placement within the script
so I have decided to include the a basic version of the example script.
I appreciate any solutions that can be given...
Here is the sample script
<html>
<head>
<title>MockWeb_Example</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" leftmargin="0" topmargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">
<!-- ImageReady Slices (MockWeb_Example.psd) -->
<table id="Table_01" width="1680" height="1050" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

That's bull! When absent minded folks wander in here by mistake, telling them they are in the wrong forum will suffice.

Where in the above quote did I say to answer the question. I said point them in the right direction.
Think back to the first time you ever went into a Forum or newsgroup. Back when you was a Greenhorn/newbie. (oh that's right you been on the net so long, you've never been a newbie.) Did you pick a group you thought was correct one. Did someone help you, or did you get your whatever chewed out. Did getting the help make you feel as though people try to help. The th chewing out make you feel like slinking a wayand never returning for support from that software company's Forum/newsgroup.
I ventured acidentally in the Office PC group on the msnews server years ago. and I received mostly geting my what-you may-call-it chewed out. But then I go almost as many suggestions as to what groups I should go to. I chalked up the chewed variety to the PC Macintosh war going on at the time. But appreciated the one that pointed be to right place.
At that point, I decided that if someone gets lost I will try to find out where for them to go, and send them to correct area. -

Can't view page in Dreamweaver
There is one page in Dreamweaver that doesn't show the web
page (design), only the html shows up. I have it clicked on
"split", but still nothing shows. How can I fix this? ThanksYou have several problems on that page.
For one, you call a routine in the body tag that is not
mentioned in the
javascript in the head -
<BODY BGCOLOR=#316AC5
background="../navimages/background.jpg"
ONLOAD="preloadImages();">
The code for the function named "preloadImages()" is not in
the head of the
page. What *is* there is the code for the DW function
"MM_preloadImages()",
but you do not call that one. This causes your page to throw
a javascript
error when it loads - since it cannot find the object called
"preloadImages()". The solution would be to remove that call
from the body
tag, e.g.,
<BODY BGCOLOR="#316AC5"
background="../navimages/background.jpg">
(note that proper syntax requires quotes around all attribute
values)
and then to reapply any preload that you want (I wouldn't
bother) using DW.
Your larger problem, though, is that your table structure is
broken, and DW
cannot figure out how to render it or its contents - that's
why you don't
see anything in DW. I would go through the code carefully and
find out why
DW thinks that your tables have too many cells in some rows
compared to
others - by this I mean that your cell configuration from one
row to the
next is not internally consistent throughout those inner
nested tables.

Unable to edit one of the pages in Dreamweaver CC
I am trying to edit one of the pages of a club website thru Dreamweaver CC. I can edit other pages in the website, just not the Calendar. It shows the Logo at the top of the page and the Links on the left side of the page, but the remainder of the page is black with a line of code across the middle. If I click to Live View, it shows up fine, but I can't figure out how to edit the page.
Hello,
in this context I want to propose that you validate your Website. Herefore you can use DW itself, see
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7ba2a .html#WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7b9fa
see "Validate documents using W3C validator (CS5.5)" and there "2.Select File > Validate > Validate Current Document (W3C)."
or you can use the validators directly:

Photoshop designed page to dreamweaver
Hello,
I recently started trying build my site in photoshop to transfer to dreamweaver. I sliced my page, saved for web and devices, opened up my page in dreamweaver, and everything was fine when I previewed in browser. But as of now my entire page is made of images rather than a page with images arranged on them. When I tried to arrange them, I can't get them where I want them (I'm used to the ease of photoshop).
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could do to put it together in dreamweaver without having my whole page made up of images? Here is what my layout looks like: http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7176/6810043402_45b5d268a3_b.jpghttp://alt-web.com/TEMPLATES/Dark-Grid-II.shtml
