Issues with spry gallery in a DW template

Hi all,
I have incorporated a spry gallery I originally found at:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/spry_photo_album_02.html
into my page. This works fine until I save my page as a template.The js seems to dissapear leaving the gallery area blank. The rest of the page is fine.
I understand this tutorial was written for v8 but have no idea why it wont work in a CS4 template.
I even tested the tutorial html by creating a new site and coverting the html file into a template. Gallery doesnt work.
Any help on this would be awesome as the gallery area was to be a main feature on the home page.
Cheers.

Make the link to the Flash element ROOT relative.
That way, the link doesn't need to be managed and will work
just fine in
your Template child pages.

FireFox -- Issue with Spry Gallery

I posted this a few months ago and I was wondering if I could
get an answer.
I want to make the images in the Spry gallery fade out before
a new image fades in. In the current mode the images vanish
instantly followed by a fade-in of the next or previous image.
I have been successful in achieving this effect in IE by
removing the following lines of code in the Gallery.js file (in the
center of the SetMainImage function).
img.style.opacity = "";
img.style.filter = "";
I also changed the background-color of #mainImageOutline in
the css file to #000000 (black). I believe this also resolved the
white speck problem.
Although the fade-out does work properly in IE it does not
work in FireFox. I believe it is the result of the
Spry.Effect.getOpacity or Spry.Effect.getStyleProp functions not
being properly calibrated for Firefox.
quote:
gBehaviorsArray["mainImage"] = new
Spry.Effect.Opacity(img, Spry.Effect.getOpacity(img), 0, {
duration: 400,
In the above line of gallery.js I replaced
"Spry.Effect.getOpacity(img)" by
"1" and that triggered the desired effect for
FireFox although it of course has the habit to set the current
image's opacity to full before fading in to the next image.
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Performance issues with Spry

Hi all,
I'm facing some performance issues with Spry. I'm using it
for handling a menubar acting as a rollover menu : its color
changes under mouse cursor, and a submenu does appear at the same
time.
I have no problem when working with Firefox, but in IE6, it
renders too slowly
Is there something I've missed in the configuration or code
(or is there some tips for this kind of problem) ?
For information, I used UL and LI html tags, and I've
configured Spry to render these as a menubar (with multiple levels)
Thanks for your response

Sorry, there are no public access to this application

No Thumbs or Main Image with Spry Gallery Demo

Hi everyone, DW CS3 newbie here.
I hope this topic hasn't been beaten into the ground yet.
I'm trying to put together a site
(members.cox.net/rangersbu9/gallery.html) for my son's soccer team
and am running into a wall getting the original, dynamic Spry
gallery demo to work. I've done my best to collect and modify the
required files and place them appropriately but, when the files are
loaded on the live server (the wrap div contents are all but
invisible when I view with IE7 locally, apparently due to the PC
not be set up as local server) the thumbs are 'x's and the main
image is a 1px x 1px dot.
The controls will highlight between the empty thumbs and the
gallery pull-down will select between the two options I've put in
the XML file but that's about it. Perhaps it is my ignorance, but
it seems like a ( src= ) tag is missing in the 'mainImageOutline'
div because I cannot understand where the main picture is coming
from otherwise.
Any insight from the source at the link above? Please keep in
mind I have two week's experience with DW and website building but
do have a programming background (from a few decades ago :->). I
believe I have the un-updated CS3 Spry version, if that matters.
Many thanks to Don and others here for posts that have helped
me get this far.
-Kurt

Update:
Got the thumbs to appear. Had them physically sized larger
than the XML fields stated. However, they will not grow/shrink. In
digging through gallery.js, I see that those two functions call
Spry.Effects.SizeAndPosition() - I cannot find that function in any
of the includes (i.e. SpryEffects.js). Spry.Effects.Size yes, but
not SizeAndPosition. Wondering if this gallery.js calls a later
version of SpryEffects.js than I currently have installed (it's
Spry 1.4). I will download 1.6 and check it out but if anyone has
any other input, please let me know.
Still no main image. In gallery.js I found ShowCurrentImage()
which had a hardcoded path to the images that did not match mine.
Corrected the path but no change.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Alignment Issues with Spry Menu Bar in Safari

www.laurentambard.com
I am new to CS5 and currently building a site for a friend. Having issues with aligning then far right spry menu bar so that it is flush with the page. It only shows a problem on Safari (as far as I know). Also the second tab (About) is dropping down slightly when the drop down menu is selected and not sure how to fix it.

If you place the menubar in a container with an ID of nav or similar and a background color of #EEE so that it blends in with the background colour of the menu items, the centralise the menubar and menu items as per http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/menubar/CenteringHorizontalMenuBarSample.h tml, it should go a long way to meeting your requirements.

IE issues with Spry horizontal men

Hi..I created a spry horizontal nav bar and its works fine in
FF, but in IE7 the pull down menus are going all over the place!
The first sub menu goes in the wrong direction and the sub sub menu
flys off to the right. Does anyone have any suggestions? Basically
the horizontal positioning is all messed up! Thanks so
much!!!

I'm having similar issues with IE - only I don't get the nav
at all. Absolutely fine in FF, but it's like I never even created
the menu (save for the code as evidence) when I look in IE.

Strange issue with Spry Accordion Panels

Hi, I'm having some strange issues with the Spry Accordion
Panels.
Here is the page:
http://www.bellaclientcenter.com/browncollege/aboutus.html
For some reason when I preview this message it adds extra
characters to the url above, so just delete those off to see the
correct url.
The only browser this does NOT happen in is safari, I'm
seeing it all of my other browsers. You'll notice when you first
load up the page, you'll see that the active panel header
background is green, and the non active is a dark grey. But when
you click one of the other panels they all turn a strange neon blue
color. This is very apparent in firefox.
Any thoughts on this? I've attached the spry css code in case
the problem is there.
thanks so much!!

Issues with Spry image slide-show with filmstrip

Hi
I used the widget browser to place a copy of the 'spry image slideshow with filmstrip' widget on to one of my web pages. I now have several issues that I am out of my depth trying to troubleshoot.
There is a big gap (like excess padding) at the top between the outer frame and the main image frame. I can't see how this has arisen or how to correct it.
Although narrow formatted images are centered horizontally in the image window, wide formatted images appear at the top of the image window, and i would like them to be either centered or at the bottom of the image window
The thumbnail images that i created for the filmstrip are tiling rather than appearing as a single centered image which is what i would like.
I have uploaded my test page to the server and you can see it here:
http://www.hebrideansheep.org.uk/test_gallery.html
any and all help gratefully received as i have spent all day trying to sort this out, but as a total amateur I feel like I am drowning.
Many thanks

Parenting issue with Spry menu boxes...

Ok, I'm using my spry menu and have sub menus hooked to them. Now the problem I'm having is that every time I change the size of the sub menu box, it changes the size of the main menu box. This is fustrating since I've got only 3 links in the sub menu box and about 6 inches of colorized box space below. Also, when I move one sub menu box it effects all of the other sub menu boxes but not the main one. I believe there's a parent-child issue to where they are connect but I don't know how to unlink these boxes so that they can act independently. Please help!!!

I managed to change the widths of the submenus on my 'test' spry menu and it didn't effect the topbar at all. The changes show in red below:
/* Submenus should appear below their parent (top: 0) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
    list-style-type: none;
    font-size: 100%;
    z-index: 1020;
    cursor: default;
    width: 10.2em;   /* was 8.2 */
    position: absolute;
    left: -1000em;
/* Submenu that is showing with class designation MenuBarSubmenuVisible, we set left to auto so it comes onto the screen below its parent menu item */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
    left: auto;
/* Menu item containers are same fixed width as parent */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li
    width: 10.2em;   /* was 8.2 */
As for moving the boxes, not sure what you mean here..

Auto Size issue with Media Gallery .AS files

First off, thanks for taking a look!
I came across this Adobe devnet article the other day while
looking for info on creating Flash web based image galleries
here.
In summary, it's an introduction on modifying the .XML files to
personalize your galleries created with Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.
Also in this article, there is a link to download source files
including gallery templates and a working .FLA file, which is
really the point of my post.
So. I've gone through the .AS, Javascript, and .XML files
looking for variables and parameters for controlling the
stage/auto/scale of the clip. I've read through each several times
making adjustments here and there and I've been able to change most
of what I want, but for the life of me I can not seem to get
control over the scaling of the clip when the user resizes the
browser. I have been able to load the clip at a set width and
height, with a minimum width and height, but again once the user
pulls the browser out, the entire screen scales with it.
My ideal goal is to embed a modified version of the .SWF with
set dimensions into a parent .SWF. On first load everything looks
great for about half a second - until the .AS files are loaded. At
this point the size of the gallery .SWF expands to fill the width
of the host browser. Actually, it expands beyond the browser frame
but that's neither here nor there. I'll admit the amount of code is
beyond me, but I can usually pick things apart enough to butcher it
to into what I need ;P If that can't happen, then I'm perfectly
happy to stick with the HTML gallery so it's no big deal really.
I'm just curious to know if any of you have experience with this
particular file and might suggest a direction?
I'll keep digging around, but at the moment I think i've
found about all I can translate or I'm missing something horribly
obvious. If you've played with this file, I would love some
insight. If not, and you're looking for a starting point for a
flash photo gallery, then take a look at the article. The
supporting files seem a bit heavy, but maybe that's just me. =]
Thanks again!

For single sign on using NTLM on a webVPN set up, you need to ensure you configure it through the command line. Did you use the ASDM for this single sign on? To configure auto-signon for all WebVPN users to servers with IP addresses ranging from
10.1.1.0 to 10.1.1.255 using NTLM authentication, for example, enter the following
commands:
hostname(config)# webvpn
hostname(config-webvpn)# auto-signon allow ip 10.1.1.1 255.255.255.0 auth-type ntlm

I've never used Spry, so take this with a huge grain of salt.. looking at your html, I am kinda wondering how come the 2nd level of the nested list items making up your submenu items arent assigned a different css style - and therefore is your css file setup to handle this change in orientation properly..
You got a class=MenuBarSubItem" on your Championship History, but theres nothing in your html (other than the nested ul within #Menubar1) to indicate that Heavyweight, Cruiserweight, etc. are 2nd Level MenuItems which should be using a different css style.. therefore it would be up to your CSS to handle this change in how these 2nd level sub menu items gets displayed.. looks like this isn't happening for MSIE, as MSIE keeps floating your 2nd level/submenu items horizontally instead of stringing them up vertically.. You may be missing a style rule in your css, but how come FF gets it right?
If I were to recreate this menu myself, I would assign a new css class to make sure my submenu items dont end up floated next to each other.. But then again, i have no clue about Spry, so I might just be rambling nonsense here...

Server issues with spry

Are there any things server side that would stop spry scripts from running correctly? I have been testing locally and on my own server with no issues, and then when attempting to deploy on my works server, It will not work correctly.
http://www.remarkablestags.com/auction/tb5.html
This should be pulling in the data from the xml file, and has worked perfectly throughout development, yet now is failing.!
Thanks!
RIchard

Couple of things come to mind
1. Create yourself an admin page where you can upload new xml files but also switch off the refresh during the upload or
1. You can switch off the upload by creating an application variable that is checked in a server page to see if refresh is active. If it is then it returns "refresh" else it returns "donorefresh"
2. In Spry to send a request to the Server page via loadurl with a callback function to check the value, if refresh then reload xml dataset.
Here's extracts from some of pages a wrote for an online forum which conceptually does this (asp is the server side stuff I know)
// Send request to server page
function Refreshme()
    var req = Spry.Utils.loadURL("GET", "refresh.asp", true, MySuccessCallback);
// Process server page response
function MySuccessCallback(req)
// Refresh data if response says there are newer posts than noload
newpost = req.xhRequest.responseText;
if (newpost != "NoLoad")
     latesttopics.setURL('serverside/latestJSON.asp?cache=' + (new Date()).valueOf());
     latesttopics.loadData() ;
    //alert(newpost);
// latest topics is the Spry dataset variable
// set refresh Interval
window.setInterval('Refreshme()',30000);

Issue with 'text box' in rtf sub template for peoplesoft XMLP

that's ok. i need to see the problem not the data as is

Issues with using Outer join in Data Template

Hi all,
this is my data in two tables .
Table Ronny1
colA colB
1 u
2 v
3 x
Table Ronny2
colC colD
1 q
2 r
This is my data template
<dataTemplate name="MGF" dataSourceRef="Source1">
     <dataQuery>
          <sqlStatement name="Q1" dataSourceRef="Source1">
               <![CDATA[select C, D from Ronny2]]>
          </sqlStatement>
          <sqlStatement name="Q2" dataSourceRef="Source2">
               <![CDATA[select A , B from lokesh1 where A = :C]]>
          </sqlStatement>
     </dataQuery>
     <dataStructure>
          <group name="G1" source="Q1">
               <group name="G2" source="Q2">
                    <element name="A" value="A"/>
                    <element name="B" value="B"/>
               </group>
          </group>
     </dataStructure>
</dataTemplate>
Now this would give me result as
A B
1 u
2 v
however my requirement is this
A B
1 u
2 v
3 x
that is, i want to display all the rows of table Ronny1 and matching rows from table Ronny2. I tried modifiying my second sql as
<![CDATA[select A , B from lokesh1 where A = :C (+)]]> ( using a outer join)
but this does give me correct data and comes back with the cartesion product.
Can anyone please answer this for me that how can we use the outer join in data templaes.
Thanks
Ronny

hey vetsrini,
sorry for the confusion here,
actually i want to display all the rows from table Ronny1 and i am also pulling in the matching rows from table Ronny2 and my data structure looks as ( pulling in column D from table Ronny2)
<dataStructure>
<group name="G1" source="Q1">
<group name="G2" source="Q2">
<element name="A" value="A"/>
<element name="B" value="B"/>
<element name="D" value="D"/>
</group>
</group>
</dataStructure>
and this is what i want the output to be
A B D
1 u q
2 v r
3 x
Hence the row where A <> C the data in the D column will be null, same as in the case of outer join.
any suggestions
Thx
Ronny
