Insert Bar

How do I reset my "Insert Bar" within Dreamweaver CS5 so it appears like the top image. The other day I opened Dreamweaver and the Insert Bar was not there. I then went to the "Windows" menu and selected "Insert". The result was that the "Insert" came up with the other floating palettes on the right. I then convert that palette to a bar and got a different looking Insert Bar (bottom image). I have also tried reseting the workspace. How can I get the Insert Bar to appear like image on top.
Thank You,
Dwayne
I'm a long time Adobe Creative Suite user but a newbie to Dreamweaver. (FYI)

None of the commands (eg attachments) on the insert bar for outgoing emails is working - what can I do? Thanks, Drummond

I suddenly cannot insert attachments to outgoing emails in Windows Live Hotmail. If I click on attachments or any other tool in the insert bar, nothing happens. My wife's hot mail account on the same computer, using the same version of Firefox, works fine; my account works fine when I use Internet Explorer instead of Firefox. How can I fix this?
Thanks for any help.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.<br />
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Add Spry Widgets to Dreamweaver Insert Bar Spry Group

Hi. I'm trying to work out how to add Spry widgets to
Dreamweaver's
Insert bar.
I downloaded Spry for Ajax 1.6 and copied the the contents of
the
SpryTooltip Folder.
I did a search in Adobe Dreamweaver's program folder for
everything Spry.
I pasted SpryTooltip everywhere in Dreamweaver that Spry
references
exist. I even created a .png icon for Spry ToolTip in:
Adobe Dreamweaver CS3\configuration\Objects\Spry
I opened Dreamweaver and there it was in my insert bar! My
icon for Spry
tooltip!
I tried to insert it into a blank age and got the message:
"Trigger
event missing" or something like that.
I'm sure there must be a way to add these new widgets to
Dreamweaver's
insert bar in the Spry group.
Can someone please tell me how to do it. Starting with
SpryTooltip.
and...
I might as well go ahead and ask how to add new Spry Effects
to
Dreamweaver's behavior panel as well. Let's say "Pulsate" for
an example.
PS. I've already asked this at the Spry Forum. No one has
replied yet.

Thank you!

hey,
I am a newbie to Spry too. I asked a similar question in the
Spry Forum.
It seems that you can not get the widgets into the Insert Bar
or on theBehavioral Panel.
To get the widgets to work, you only have the option to link
to them from your spry folder.
Spry is exciting, yet, it is still a new method, so the
WYSIWYG interface thing is still developing. Unfortunaly, if you
want to use Spry, you need to get dirty with the code stufff.
So, I too, use Spry sparingly.....
Hope that helps.

Customizing insert bar in dreamweaver 8

I recently started using dreamweaver 8 RELUCTANTLY instead of
homesite 5.5 since it seems to have been abandoned. There are some
great improvements like the properties tab and such. However,
having to edit a .xml file, create your own .js and .html files to
add or move custom items to the insert bar is a major step
backward. In homesite all you have to do is right click on the
insert bar and fill out a form or wizard type app. It used to be so
easy but now it is a major PAIN
Please excuse me for venting but I just hope Adobe
can realize that there are some great features in homesite that
seem to have been completely abandoned in dreamweaver. I know they
are completely different apps with a different history but If they
plan (or seem) to have replaced homesite with dreamweaver's coding
environment, I hope they will take another look back and see what
they are missing. Many of us have been coding cold fusion since
it's creation and really loved cold fusion studio/homesite.
Dreamweaver just doesn't cut the mustard compared to those older
apps. Here's hoping they can continue to enhance dreamweaver in the
future.
Anyway, thanks for listening.

That's not something we can tell you how to do step-by-step,
because there
are too many possibilities, and it's not something you can do
with
Dreamweaver alone.
Basically, you build and style the form using Dreamweaver,
and then you use
a script of some kind to send the form. That might be a CGI
script that your
host server provides for free, with instructions (ask your
host), or it
might be one that you choose yourself and install. There are
a number of
types - CGI/Perl, ASP, ColdFusion, PHP, ASP.NET. The one you
choose would
depend upon what the host server supports. You'll need to
contact them and
ask.

Insert Bar Problem

Using DW 8.0.2 on MAC OSX 10.5.4.
Installed "Insert a QuickTime Movie" extension from Adobe
Exchange using Ext. Manager. (extension worked)
Following that my Insert Bar is now labeled 'Common' and has
only the Common tab with only the first 4-5 icons. Same scenario in
the 'menu' configuration. Attempts to customize show only the
common objects available.
Also can no longer insert layer from main menu.
Have reinstalled DW 8 and updated to 8.0.2 with no change.
How can I fix this???

I'm pretty sure this is part of the preferences file. If you
go to your Library->Preferences and search for the .plist file
which has the name Dreamweaver in it you can drag that to the trash
and then restart DW. It will take longer to restart after doing
this because OSX will need to create a new preferences file, but
this should solve problems with the menus.

How do I activate attachment etc. on the insert bar? MAC OS10

HOtmail account on my Firerfox Web browser is no longer able to activate attachment or emotioncons etc. on the insert bar. Previously worked. I do not know what changed . No problem when I use Safari, however I am a Firefox user and my other friend with Macs have not had this problem....
Thank You
Buz

That is the Windows Taskbar and not part of Firefox.
The Firefox Status Bar shows messages like Looking up and Waiting for and loading and Done.
If you do not see that Taskbar with Firefox closed then you may have hidden it.
Try to move the mouse at the bottom and see if you can pull it up with the left mouse button pressed.
If the Taskbar disappear if you open Firefox the check the Properties of the Taskbar to make sure that it is always visible.

How to switch on insert bar?

It looks like in screenshot, but i don't see it in my DW.

I switched on insert panel and it's dimmed during working with js files. In help said
If you are working with certain types of files, such as XML, JavaScript, Java, and CSS, the Insert panel and the Design view option are dimmed because you cannot insert items into these code files.
Display the Insert panel as a horizontal Insert bar - even if it displayed as horizontal insert bar it's dimmed.
May be I need other insert bar? Because there must be shown jquery utilities toolset and it must be available for use. I installed this toolset already in right way.

The Insert Bar in hotmail is not working. Can't use Attachment etc. Have Silverlight enabled. Please advise.

The hotmail insert bar not working has started ever since hotmail was upgraded. I can attache files to my gmail account but as I use hotmail regularly, it is inconvenient. Sometimes this problem disappears on its own. And it happens with Firefox as well as IE 6.0. Can some one help out please?

I had the same problem and after much internet searching. It helped when I realized they called that an "insert bar" I was looking for why my attachment option was gone. I found a solution that works. Turn off your Silverlight addon. Tools/Addons/Plugins then Disable. The insert bar is not coming up properly because of this addon. I disabled it and cleared my cache and have had no trouble since.

CS6 update does not show HTML5 option in Insert Bar... still seeing Media from CS5.5... ???

I've updated CS5.5 to CS6 repeatedly, and I've then installed the CS6 update for Dreamweaver... I don't have the HTML5 option in the Insert Bar...
What now??? Thanks, Terry

You don't get option for HTML5. It is already there as part of HTML. The only thing you need to do is to set the default document type to HTML 5 as shown in this picture:
Once you have got the default document type, all your new pages will be HTML 5 compliant and the HTML codes you use will be HTML5 compliant and your pages will look identical on all HTML5 compliant browsers. All current browsers are HTML5 compliant to some degree. Even IE 10 and 11 is HTML5 compliant
Hope this helps.

Insert Bar in hotmail is greyed out and am unable to attach files; have silverlight plug in enabled; what's the problem?

the Insert bar in hotmail reply is greyed out and the icons such "Attachments" are not clickable. I am using Firefox 3.6.13 and have Silverlight 4.0.51204.0 enabled. What can be the problem? Also, in some instances cookies that store my address and other information that I need to populate when filling in online purchase forms on - say - eBay, are not working and I have to fill them in every time.

in mozilla firefox go to Tools/addons/plug-ins and '''disable silverlight'''

Reenable the PHP tab in insert bar

I was exploring the windows last night and found a few quite
interesting features that way however, I accidentally disabled one
which I often use : the PHP tab in insert bar. I could customise
the favorite tab to have all the PHP elements in it but I'd like to
have it the way it was.
I already did a search about it and found nothing so please
redirect me if I missed the answer, if not I'd appreciate any tip.
Thanks,
DynV

Are you working on a PHP page at the time?

Nothing on the Insert bar is clickable when sending email, it worked before the upgrade to 4.0

Nothing on the Insert bar (Attachments, Docs, etc.) is clickable when sending email, it worked before the upgrade to 4.0.

I updated to IOS 6.1 and then tried the App Store. It took a long long time but finally 2 apps showed up to be updated. I upadted them and they work. Everything appears fine.

Adding Extension Tab to Insert Bar

Finally, after much trial and error, I' ve created an
extension to insert some code I needed that prompts for input...
Now, however, in following a tutorial I found on dmxzone.com
that shows how to create an .mxi file to package the extension, I'm
encountering some problems.
First, I had tried modifying the insertbar.xml file, which
worked, but not exactly as I wanted it to...and, I needed to
package it to give to someone else, so I undid the modifications to
the insertbar.xml file, but my modifications refuse to go away, and
still appear on the insert bar...How can I get that to go away.
Secondly, I created the .mxi file I needed, but I can't seem
to get it to appear as I want...what I want is to have the tab
labeled "GFSO", because I want to have multiple extensions that
pertain to that organization. Then, I want the tooltip to say
"Insert MP3 Player Code"...
My question, I guess, is...how do I make that happen...??? I
can get either/or to happen, but not both. What in the .mxi file
controls this??? I've searched everywhere, but can't find any
resource that fully addresses this question.
My .mxi file reads:
<macromedia-extension id=""
name="GFSO"
version="1"
type="object">

<products>
<product name="Dreamweaver" version="8" primary="true"
/>
</products>

<author name="Maynard Jarvis" />

<description>
<![CDATA[This extension will add the code necessary for
the MP3 player to play clips.]]>
</description>
<ui-access>
<![CDATA[Click on Insert MP3 Player Code icon from the
GFSO Objects window]]>
</ui-access>
<files>
<file name="MP3 Player.html"
destination="$dreamweaver/configuration/objects/GFSO" />
<file name="MP3 Player.js"
destination="$dreamweaver/configuration/objects/GFSO" />
<file name="MP3 Player.gif"
destination="$dreamweaver/configuration/objects/GFSO" />
</files>

</macromedia-extension>
which gives me a tab that reads "MP3 Player"...how can I make
this say "GFSO"??? I thought that by having the .html and .js code
in it's own directory would do that, but even though I specify that
install directory, it isn't created and I'm not sure where the
files for the extension end up.
Thanks in advance!

I haven't the solution for the second problem, but for the
first, maybe it's a multi-user configuration pb.
If you have modified the Program Files/Macromedia/DW/ folder,
there are chances that DW copied the insertbar.xml fil to your
local user folder (Document & Settings/User Name/ ....).
Another thing could be a cache folder DW's using but I can't
remember where it is.
hope it helps
