IWeb and W3C Compliance... IE 6&7 Distortion?

I have a couple of questions, wondering what can be done for each of them.
1. I cannot get my site to validate with the W3C Validator.
2. My Site shows up weird and distorted in IE 6 & 7.
What should I be looking for/ doing to correct these problems?
-Thanks

I don't know anything about the W3C validation...
The Internet Explorer issues that you talk about, though, probably result from IE's inability to render PNG format graphics properly. What usually happens is that the page elements download one by one and everything that is PNG appears with a grey/blue box covering it. Then the iWeb .js code runs some on-the-fly conversion to make the PNGs render properly specifically for IE.
How to minimize this?
1. Minimize JPG to PNG conversion by iWeb (avoid resizing images or applying image effects with or inside iWeb....preprocess images)
2. Minimize the size of PNG graphics files to minimize download time and the length of time the grey boxes appear on screen

  • 508 & W3C compliance

    If you check to generate Section 508 Compliant Output AND W3C
    Compliant Topics, exactly WHAT CHANGES in the help files? What is
    different? improved? whatever?

    Thank you Jinx1 for posting this message. While I acknowledge
    the position of senior members in the availability of their time
    and that they are doing a great job getting to posting, it may be
    difficult for them to understand that the demand for answers to
    deficiencies in compliance can be as intimidating as undergoing a
    U.S. Congressional hearing depending upon how sensible the folks
    are conducting the compliance checks. My perspective is that there
    is value in having a centralized posting of this information. Just
    consider the amount of research time and money each government
    employee or contractor spends in finding these very same answers
    for themselves.
    That said for your immediate future, it may help for you to
    change your perspective from the source file differences to the
    output differences. Take a look at how testing for compliance will
    be done by your governing agency. We just completed a W3C Level
    1,2,3 compliance check of RoboHelp 6 webhelp having both the
    settings you mentioned. There was a third-party tool used to verify
    Accessibility. There are freeware versions of tools available for
    accessibilty testing. It will give you the specific differences in
    the htm files and identify the rules broken.
    With our RH6 results, even with 508 compliance and W3C
    checked, there were still elements flagged like the use of frames,
    no titles for those frames, and the lack of a NOFRAMES alternative.
    Also there was an applet used without any titling or an alternative
    means to get it. (I'm not sure what this applet does.) The same
    frame related elements are flagged in a comparison with a NON-508
    compliant default-skin version. The main difference between the two
    seems to be the use of non-titled images (mainly the books and page
    graphics that make up the TOC), also the navigation buttons at the
    top do not have alt or longdesc tags.
    With either output, it may be less stressful to find out if
    compliance really is YOUR problem to deal with. Was there a product
    selection process and who was involved? Can they help? There may be
    creative alternatives that the governing agency may come up with or
    exceptions made on a case-by-case basis.
    Good luck!

  • How do I access iWeb and iDVD on my new Macbook Air?

    I just bought a new MacBook Air and read that I can load iPhoto 11, iMovie 11, and GarageBand from the app store, which I did. I don't see iWeb or iDVD anywhere, on the MacBook or in the app store.
    I guess iWeb and iDVD are part of the iLife 11 package, which does not come with the MacBook Air (thought it did), but I wanted to check in case I am overlooking something.

    If you have another Mac that you can connect to your Air with a local area network or int the Target Disk Mode,  Transferring files between two computers using FireWire, you would be able to run the iLife 11 installer disk on the other Mac and select the Air as the location for the installation.

  • I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have bought a copy of Apple iLife 11 on dvd a so that I can install iWeb and idvd, when I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate

    I am using a new imac with osx lion 10.7.5 and have just bought Apple iLife 11 on dvd so that I can install iWeb and iDVD, as macs no longer ship with these apps. When I click on install iLife I get a message saying "iLife.kpg was signed with an invalid certificate.
    Next problem is that when moving through the installer and get to custom install, as I only want to install iDVD and iWeb, I am presented with the option to install iDVD, Sounds & Jingles and iWeb, but not sure what is going on with the other 3 options iLife Support etc, they seem to be greyed out but still look like they may install over the top of the newer versions already on my imac. Is it ok for me to just go ahead and hit install? Or do I have a problem?

    Yep, just install iDVD (plus sounds and jingles) and iWeb if you want it (but note that iWeb apparently won't work if you upgrade to Mountain Lion).
    Then use Software Update to get any late iDVD updates.

  • IWeb and multiple users

    So i'm trying to see how i can set up a website in iweb and edit that website from multiple computers and it stay up-to-date. is there a way to do this?

    thanks, that does help a bit, i think i can figure that out. my next question is what happens to my existing iweb sites if i try to open a different DOMAIN file from a different source?
    ie: i have like over 20 iWeb sites in my iWeb 2.0 that are in a DOMAIN file stored in the default location. if i go to open (by double clicking) a DOMAIN file from an iDisk for instance to edit it and it opens iWeb, what will happen with my other sites? and will this set that iDisk DOMAIN file location as my default?

    You haven't a problem. You simply did not read the iWeb Help :

    Just in-case anyone els runs into this, I figured it out... I was working from my hotel and apperantly the fire wall was not allowing anything to uplaod, but I wasn't getting an error message from iweb, it would say that everything was published succesfully even though it wasn't. Once I went home and used my connection eveything worked fine.

    It's only Safari/iOS7. Chrome iOS7 works fine.
    Solution?
    Go to YT and grab the code.

  • HT4686 How can I publish my website developed using iWeb and have all functions of the blog page work as it did with MobileMe?

    I have developed a website using iWeb and it includes a blog page selected from stock pages in iWeb.  I'm publishing it with GoDaddy and when I do that the interactive functions of the blog page don't work. (Adding comments and photos as well as searching).  Is there any simple way to host this site somewhere so that those functions work?

    No, because all those functions were MobileMe only and now that MobileMe has gone, they won't function any longer.
    To enable these to function, you either need to add them yourself or change your blogging platform to something else such as WordPress etc., and create a link from iWeb to your WordPress blog or embed the blog page using iframe into your iWeb site.
    Commenting systems such as Disqus or http://www.intensedebate.com work quite well.

  • My new computer does not have iWeb and I can't open the files from the old computer. What can I do???

    I'm really desperate. I used to publish to a blog directly from iWeb, then I discontinued it. When I made the switch to iCloud, I wasn't worried because I knew my files would always be there. However, once I got a new computer, I transferred all the old files to an external hard drive and I thought everything would work just fine. Well, it didn't Neither can I open iWeb nor can I find my files.
    Can anyone help me please?

    New Macs have not shipped with iWeb for over 2 years and Apple has not sold or supported iWeb for at least 2 years now - Apple stopped selling it and dropped support for it when MobileMe was ditched in favour of iCloud which does not offer hosting.
    If you want iWeb, then you will need to have a look at your old installation CD's for your old Mac and see if iWeb is on these and you can then install it from there or if you don't have these CD's any longer, then you'll have no option but to purchase a copy of either iLife 09 or iLife 11 from Amazon - these boxed sets both contain iWeb 09, which is the latest version of iWeb.
    Other than this and as you have not done your blog for sometime, perhaps you should consider re-creating it from scratch with a software that is actively supported and updated - that is NOT iWeb any longer.
    You could try using WordPress, either .com or .org - .org is good if you already have hosting and you can install WordPress directly onto your server.  If you want something free, then you could use WordPress.com which is then published on the WordPress servers.
    You could also take a look at EverWeb from Rage Software, which is very new and is very like iWeb with all the extras, such as drop down menus etc.  Take a look at http://www.everwebapp.com.
    As for your files, it sounds that when you say files, these might be the published files for your site, if you went into iWeb and published them to a local folder?  This is not a backup and even if you could find these files, then iWeb will not be able to open them because it has no import facility, so cannot open an already published site - html and css files.
    What you need is your domain.sites files which can be found under your User Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites.
    I would cut your losses and if you don't have iWeb, then don't bother paying for software that is now outdated and unsupported - move onto to something new and re-create everything in either WordPress or EverWeb.

  • Problems with iWeb and mobile me

    Ciao everyone,
    I've been having a ridiculous amount of problems with my mobile me account and my iweb. 2 weeks ago I was fine with my iweb and mobile me but all of a sudden my iweb would say it publish but it really doesn't publish. The I went to the mac store a couple of times and thought I would get answers but I didnt get any answer even though I had a couple of one to one visits with a couple of stores in NYC. So when i publish it it shows that it published in my www.me.com/idisk/iweb folder but then it doesn't show in my website. Then one guy told me that I should just recreate a new site but copy and past all the old information to the new one. Now it won't publish at all because I guess its a lot of information to publish at once. I get an error message saying error iweb was not able to publish please try again later. Any help?

    Hey you guys,
    Thanks for the help, but I did try to publish all to my iweb and it didn't work. I do try to view my published website through the file/visit published site and for some reason only my intro page is there then when i go into the main page i get an error page. I also did go to my finder/Go/idisk/myidisk/iweb/site/iweb and saw my websites folder. Everything seems to be in it. I tried to take a screen shot of what is in my folder but I can't post pictures. In my folder I have a folder for gallery, index.html, site, shites.rss, and my website folder usvisualswebsite
    Any other suggestions? This is really frustrating. I also created another test site with nothing in it and published it and it says it finishes publishing but the blank test page isn't there.

    Hi Jun,
    You could check the upgrade logs and traces at the location ../usr/sap/<sid>/upg/abap/logs.
    Check for the latest last changed logs. Mos probably a prerequisite package for the REACH 2.0 installation is not included in the upgrade. The detailed logs should mention which prerequisite is missing.
    Fore reference see thread: EHP4 upgrade error on SAPK-603DHINEAPS
