IE display prob with Halo Left Nav CSS

I used "Halo Left Nav" stylesheet building my site. The
problem is that in long lists only in Windows IE a blank area
appears at the top of the content div. Incidentally it drops
exactly to the end of one of the divs in the page nav area. It's
only indirectly related to the size of the content area.
Sample
page
It's not strictly amount of html but appears to be
interaction between div tags and content.
My mail if anybody has
encountered this before and knows.
thanks

The HALO templates suck lots of unsuspecting users in just
like the pop-up
menus. If you are not pretty comfortable with HTML and CSS
and javacsript
you will struggle with these. How do you fare there?

Help with halo left nav

Hello Everyone,
This is my first time posting something on the macromedia
forum. I was looking to create a personal website, and first used
(laugh ) frontpage, but then switched to dreamweaver. I like the
"Halo Left Nav" template, yet need help. And yes, I am a
dreamweaver noob.
1) On the top, how do you change the links for the global
links and the submenu links.
2) How do I make it so the top stays there the whole time,
but only the bottom part changes. I know you must use frames, but
is there a specific way to do it.
Thanks for you help
Email me at [email protected] if needed

As a DW noob, I caution you that the HALO templates will be
quite
frustrating for you. They are really intended either as -
* learning tools, or
* page templates for those familiar and comfortable with HTML
and CSS and
javascript
If you are trying to build something to actually put on the
web, I would
suggest that you consider starting a bit lower on the totem
pole! 8)

New Page CSS - Halo Left Nav

I am creating a new page using DW's built-in page designs.
The page that I am working with is the Halo Left Nav - which some
with the CSS and other files.
I created a menu in flash that want to use throughout my
site. I also want to use the template menu. When I insert the flash
menu at the top of the page and move the MastHead down below 52px,
the global links bring up the subglobal links for an instance and
then it loses focus. If I move the masthead up then it goes back to
working fine.
The problem is that I want the flash to be at 0px Top and the
masthead section at 53px top since the flash is 52px in length.
If I drag and drop the Masthead down then it automatically
writes to the CSS the new px locations.
I'm sure it is something simple. Please help.

Test server is down at the moment. I am attaching the HTML
and CSS. When I mouseover the Global Links the first time the
sublinks stay with focus until the mouse is moved. After the first
time, I mouseover the Global Links, the submenu almost does a type
of a blink on the screen and then it is gone.
Thanks for the help.

CSS-Page Design- Halo, Left Nav

Hello,
How are the Section Links activated in the CSS-Page
Design-Halo, Left Nav. Should the Section Links be drop down menus,
or are they simply to be used as hyperlinks?

The HALO templates not the best choice for anyone, really.
They are fiddly,
and awkward.
How comfortable are you with HTML, CSS, and javascript?

Template Halo Left Nav

Hi,
I am encountering problems using the Halo Left Nav and I
don't know what I am doing wrong. Whenever I try to replace the
Capsule Story text (below the Capsule Story heading, so let´s
say the ´content´), when I am replacing the text in the
last cell, the design changes (the left column or the right column
changes and becomes bigger than the left or right one). What is the
problem here and how can I solve this? Help!

Just tell me first -
How comfortable are you with HTML, javascript, and CSS. If
the answer to
any of those is "not very" then you are definitely on thin
ice here. The
Halo templates are fiddly, and arcane in their approach, and
really should
be removed from the product.

DW: "Halo Left Nav" template

I am trying to create more space between the top margin (for
my header graphic) and the Nav. bar with pop-up/down sub-links.
Problem is that when I shifted everything downwards, the pop-up
subglobal navs don't stay open as well when I try to hover the
mouse over them. I've spent hours trying to figure out how to fix
this. Can anyone help? I've uploaded what I've done so far.
Here is the file:
http://www.trappmusic.com/ea_index.html
Is this something that has to be fixed with CSS or the Java
Script? Either way I am very confused about this. I've attached the
CSS code.
Many thanks,
Tom

And it only shows how really bizarre this menu system is....

Display probs with Humax LP32 1280 x ?

I have a brand new macmini. When connected DVI -HDMI to my Humax LP32-TDR1 TV the display appears great at first glance. Just what I§d hoped for.
BUT - actually the menus are all missing at the top.
Have tried all resolution options but they are all worse.
Currently have 1280 x 720 60 Hz (NTSC)
TV manual says
PC Monitor max Resolution 1280 x 1024 pixels@60Hz
LCD Panel Max Resolution 1280 x 768 pixels
I heard something about a §zoom§ feature in Leopard but I have a logitech remote keyboard and the Cmd / Apl number 8 sequence doesn§t seem to do anything.
Please can anyone advise me of how to fix this?

OK
I turned off 'overscan' and this has provided a fix which satisfies me. If anyone could explain the pro's v con's of using DVI - HDMI or DVI - VGA etc I'd appreciate it.

Help with HALO & menu

How do I get this menu to show up in the Page Name section of
the Halo Left Nav template?
menu files:
menuscript.css
menustyle.css

That just means that the host has not disabled directory
browsing. You can
fix that by -
a) asking them to disable it, or
b) adding a default filename file to the root folder
But - I gotta tell you, if you are not very comfortable with
HTML and
javascript and CSS, you might be better off not using these
HALO templates.
There are lots of gotchas lurking in there.

WebHelp not displaying content in left nav pane

Any suggestions for why WebHelp is not displaying contents in
the left navigation pane? When Help is called, it displays the
frame (including buttons such as glossary, search, contents, etc)
and the work area, but does not show the TOC in the left navigation
pane.
I have also tried generating FlashHelp, with the same
results. This time, only the work area displays. Any suggestions to
fix this?
This is a new project, where RoboHelp is being deployed for
the first time. Any suggestions for making this a simpler
transition would be much appreciated. I have used RoboHelp for many
years with a different company and do not recall ever running into
this many problems.
Help!

Sorry, I haven't used the CSH method which, by the way, was
designed to show only the topic at first, I think.
I give my developers a list of path/filenames for topics, and
they use this form:
.../helpdirectory/myproject.htm#targettopic.htm
There are some shortcomings to this method, which leaves the
window open and, when you call another topic, another new window
opens. In other words, you have to close the help window manually
to avoid windowmania.
A solution is a little js that checks to see if a window is
already open, closes it and opens a new one. (If no help window is
open, it's a harmless js error.) It's fast enough that you wouldn't
notice.
The downside here is losing the browser history. Forward and
back buttons work only so long as the help window stays open.
In my opinion, this is not a major concern, since many Web
based applications these days tell users not to use the back
button. Production users won't mind so much.
For ordinary people doing e-shopping and online banking, the
browser back button is anathema.
The bottom line is, if you have a decent set of navigating
options built into the design -- TOCs, left or right rail lists,
useful links at top and/or bottom of the topic page, the back
button can become superfluous.
Browe sequences work fine from any point in the lineup (I
know, it's not the same as browser history -- unless you give them
a really useful set of sequences).
The forever-loading left pane is gone in RH 7.
Hope this is useful.

I want to print iCal with Mondays in the left hand side column. My calendar prints with Tuesday in the left hand column even though it displays Mondays in the left hand column when in normal use.

I want to print iCal with Mondays in the left hand side column. My calendar prints with Tuesday in the left hand column even though it displays Mondays in the left hand column when in normal use.

Thank you for your advice, it works. I have struggled for hours to find the solution I am very grateful.

Apple Watch does it make provisions for left-handers? either a mirror image version, or the ability to rotate the display 180º allowing it to be worn on the right wrist and controlled with the left hand?

Does the apple Watch accommodate left-handed people? is there a mirror image option, or can the display be rotated 180º, allowing the watch to be worn on the right wrist, and manipulated with the left hand? Just wondering if you have thought about that?
Thanks,
Rick
PS: none of the "communities " accessible to me seemed appropriate for this question, so I am posting here, hoping someone will forward it on to the proper place in Apple.

There's a option when setting up the watch to set it up for left handed users. That and the easily user revisable straps will accommodate lefties.

Dreamweaver two column left nav

I am starting a new site. I am pretty familiar with web site
construction and many css features.
I have created a few pages using the sample css html pages
supplied with dreamweaver. I selected a site named "two columns
left nav".
I checked it out pretty thoroughly using a color code system
to identify the varies features. My main concern is to be able to
create a site that will fit most resolutions available. I tried it
out and it does expand and contract. I tried it on my 24 inch
monitor, my little laptop and a 21 inch Macintosh.
No problem with dreamweaver but there is a problem with me.
I can't seem to come up with a scheme in the header that will
expand and contract. I would like to use graphics. Is there any
instructions available to make these graphics get larger or smaller
so they will conform to different size monitors, resolutions etc?
Once I master this I will get started on my new site.
Thank you.
Maybe there is a little trick you can tell me about.

You can't expand and contract images. You can set a
background image
and have it repeat as necessary as long as the image will
tile correctly.

Display Issues with mini (Mid 2010) and LG L246WP

I recently purchased a new mini (Mid 2010 base model) and planned to use it with my 24" LG L246WP monitor, which is about 3 years old. The monitor has VGA, component, and HDMI inputs.
I used an HDMI-to-HDMI cable to connect the mini directly to the monitor, and the output is completely messed up. The mini recognized the monitor (titling the System Preferences > Display dialog with 'L246WP') and set it to the monitor's native resolution of 1920x1200, but on the monitor the image is cropped to what looks like a 4:3 aspect ratio and with part of the image shifted up and left so I cannot view the top menu bar or the left hand side of the desktop. The monitor's on-screen display shows 1080p in this mode.
The Display dialog also gives me an option for 1080p. I can select this and use the Underscan slider to resize the desktop output to fit on the screen, but it is still shifted left and must be resized smaller than the available display space (plus the total image is only 1080 pixels, not using the monitor's full native screen). In this mode, 1080p also shows on the monitor's on-screen display.
I tried 1024x768 to see if I could get a properly-positioned image, but the desktop was shifted just like in the 1920x1200 case and the monitor's on-screen display status still reported 1080p.
The monitor has a menu setting under an HDMI heading with "Video" and "PC" options, but changing this selection does not make a difference.
Since the monitor came out before HDMI was as widespread as it is today, it came with a DVI-to-HDMI cable, so I also tried using that cable with the HDMI-to-DVI adapter that came with the mini, but this did not make a difference either.
To prove it wasn't the HDMI cable, I connected the mini to my Samsung 6300 series 40" LED HDTV and with some tweaking of the Underscan slider the displayed image filled the screen perfectly.
I've searched the Internet and various forum threads (i.e. http://hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1167222&page=63) seem to indicate this monitor can send a corrupted EDID that causes issues, especially with nVidia graphics drivers. On Windows you can use registry or driver hacks to override the EDID with the correct values, but on OS X this doesn't seem possible (I was hoping for a Terminal one-liner but it seems this doesn't exist). I have seen some mentions of the shareware SwitchResX (http://www.madrau.com), which looks like it gives you the option to override resolution settings, but I haven't tried this yet.
It also appears to me that the monitor is always interpreting the signal (or the mini is always sending the signal) as 1080p, even if I've set 1920x1200 in the Display dialog. I don't know if this is a defect in the monitor where it always assumes the HDMI input is a 1080p source (previous I used it with an Xbox 360 with no issues but that was 1080p HDMI), or if is a bug in the graphics drivers (or at least a lack of flexibility / miscommunication to the user trying to handle a corrupt EDID).
I asked my local Genius Bar for advice today (without bringing any hardware in) but was not told anything I didn't already know.
I'm trying to determine the best way to work through this issue. *My questions are:*
Would it make any difference if I used a Mini DisplayPort-to-DVI adapter (and then my DVI-to-HDMI cable to the monitor's HDMI input)?
What about a Mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter? In the past I used a 12" Powerbook (via a mini-DVI-to-VGA adapter) with this monitor and had no display issues like this, but I'd prefer to stick with a digital connection on my brand new mini.
Is SwitchResX the only practical way in OS X to override a corrupt EDID and force the mini to output a certain resolution?
Besides the various adapters and SwitchResX, is there anything else I should try before buying a new monitor?

Hello EPWilson4984.
I have been experiencing the same issues you described. Connecting my brand new Mac Mini to my Westinghouse 24”monitor (L2410NM, 1920x1200 pixel resolution) produces a very fuzzy and washed out image quality. The Mac recognizes the monitor and applies the right resolution (1920x1200), but it looks just awful. The EDID info is definitely not right.
Now, I tried your suggestion (DVI-to-HDMI), and similar suggestions from other threads, but nothing works. Nothing seems to work at all.
The main input for the monitor is HDMI, so whatever cable I use, in the end always has to connect to the monitor via HDMI. I tried all these combinations with zero success:
Mac mini -> HDMI cable -> monitor (result: fuzzy and blurry image)
Mac mini -> displayport –HDMI adapter-> HDMI cable -> monitor (result: fuzzy and blurry image)
Mac mini -> displayport –DVI adapter-> DVI-to-HDMI cable -> monitor (result: it gives me a blank screen, no image at all)
I’m running out of options. Don’t know what to do. The 24” monitor produces beautiful, crisp images when hooked to my Windows 7 PC. It looks horrible when connected to my brand new Mac Mini.
Any alternatives you may have come across? Please let me know, thank you.

Display Problem with my Mac Pro and LG Flatron Wide Monitor in Mountain Lion

After upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Pro has display problems with my LG Flatron display. The image is displayed with a black bar on the right and on the bottom. And the left side of the content is not visible. I tried every resolution available in the Display System Preferences, they are different in terms of how big the black bars are, and what part is not visible, but none of them are correct. I held down the option key to try to detect displays or switch to resolutions that are not normally available. When I restart the image is lined up with the display, but if the display ever goes to sleep or gets turned off, the image reverts to being off center, and the only way I can get it back is to restart... The interesting thing is that this monitor works fine with the same machine if I reboot using BootCamp into Windows 7. The Monitor also works fine, connecting the same connector to a Mac Mini, although that mac mini is running 10.6 and not Mountain Lion. I've reset the SMC and restarted countless times, I don't see any other levers to pull or things to try...

I want to create an image gallery with forward back nav, master image with a click to pop out zoom

Hi Musers,
I'm currently building a photography website and need some help building a specific type of gallery.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Below is a description of the gallery I want to build:
On the gallery page the gallery appears as a single 'Master Image' with forward and back 'Navs.' and a 'Counter' underneath this single 'Master Image'. Lets say that there are 10 images in this gallery. When the viewer clicks on the forward 'Nav.' the 'Master Image' changes to the next image in the sequence of 10 and the 'Counter' below confirms this progression, in this example the 'Counter' changes from 1 of 10 to read 2 of 10, the 'Master Image' displayed is the second image in the sequence.
Simple so far.. This above I can do as this is just a basic gallery. What follows is what I cannot find a solution for.
I want the gallery viewer to be able to click on the 'Master Image' and launch an enlargement of that image overlaying the gallery page, very much like the way the 'Lightbox' widget displays an enlarged image. When the viewer clicks off the 'Ligtbox' or enlarged image it dissapears, reverting the page view back to the standard gallery view with 'Master Image', 'Navs.' and 'Counter'. I do not want the expanded / Enlarged 'Lightbox' image accompanied by a thumbnail gallery, 'Navs.' / Navigation arrows or a 'Counter'. What I want is to be able to launch an enlarged version of the 'Master Image' as an overlay on the gallery page, something like a pop out.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Can anyone explain how I can do this? Is it possible?
The solution I want seems to be a highbrid between the standard gallery with navigation arrows kept but minus thumbnails and captions with some of the functionality of the lightbox gallery widget.
I very much appreciate any help anyone can give.
Thank you

Hi Harriet,
Thanks for the message. I'm sure as time goes on new features will be introduced but it's a bit of a shame that the widget library is a little basic, oh, and at times it's just that little bit buggy. So far I'm really impressed by Muse despite being ever so slightly disappointed by some of it's limitations. I'd like to see more image gallery options, the ability to set up a client login area or a client ftp within a site, I also tried embedding video but as I'm no programmer the result looked clumsy so some focus on this would be a help. Considering that a good number of people benefiting from a Muse site will be online retailers a zoom function should have been there from the start.
Best regards
Jacques
