IWeb pages appear different on different machines

Hi,
i've tested my site on both my mac and PC and it appears exactly as i would want it, however, when other people view it from their PC's it becomes enlarged and too big for the screen. Any ideas as to what might cause this?
Neil

Most likely it is the font. What happens is that many websites out there force internet explorer to change its font size automatically, and that affects websites browsed after the fact as it attempts to force font sizes onto each website you visit. Images also I've noticed on Internet Explorer 6.0 for Windows in the Apple website occasionally appear bigger than normal. Unless you specify the number of pixels in your HEIGHT and WIDTH tags an image should be when using it, you may get some odd side effects in terms of the size of the image if you get proportional values. I prefer when publishing my website to entirely drop the image HEIGHT and WIDTH tags, by editing with a straight forward text editor my HTML files. http://www.barebones.com/ BBEdit and Textwrangler are both great for HTML editing.

IWeb page w. 4 different movies creates site with 4 same movies

I can't figure this out...(iWeb '08)
I create a site in iWeb and use the Media window to drag in 4 different movies, each one a couple minutes in length. The site is just how I would like it.
I then publish the site. When I go to view the published site (at me.com), it has published 4 of the same movie. It was like I dragged the same movie in 4 times. I've restarted everything, recreated pages over game...all with no luck. The movies are all in iMovie and held as different projects (that is how I get to them through the inspector).
Any advice? This is driving me nuts!
When I create 4 different pages, each with a different movie, then it will STILL NOT publish correctly, with a different movie on 2 of the pages, and the other 2 the same. I have re-checked everything in iWeb and iMovie and everything appears normal. Ugh!
Thanks!

Try the basic and quick fix of deleting the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides iny your User/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iWeb, do a Publish All to MobileMe and see if there's any change.

How to make menu-item of current page appear in a different font color?

Hi,
My menu-bar works just fine. Hovering the links I get the text to take display the desired color. Now I want the menu-item of the selected page to show a third color.
With live-code enabled in Dreamweaver CS6, I can see the following code being generated by the Dynamic menu:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/CatalystScripts/Java_DynMenusSelectedCSS.js"></script><div id="cat_549633_divs"><ul id="nav_549633"><li class="selected"><a href="/home.html">Home</a></li><li><a href="/leistungen.html">Leistungen</a></li><li><a href="/uhrenservice.html">Uhrenservice</a></li><li><a href="/versteigerungen.html">Versteigerungen</a></li><li><a href="/diamanten.html">Diamanten</a></li><li><a href="/ueber_uns.html">Über uns</a></li><li><a href="/kontakt.html">Kontakt</a></li></ul></div><script type="text/javascript">catSetSelectedCSSItem('nav_549633');</script>
The class .selected is being created in the first list-item (home) as this is the current page.
And here is my CSS:
#nav_549633 {
          float: right;
          list-style-type: none;
          padding-top: 5px;
#nav_549633 li {
          float: left;
          text-align: left;
#nav_549633 li a {
          color:white;
          text-decoration: none;
          margin: 0 27px 0 0;
          font-size: 13px;
          text-transform: uppercase;
#nav_549633 li a:hover {
          color: yellow;
.selected {
          color: green;
The font color green does not appear. It is still white.
In order to see if the class is "working" I tried some other attributes, that DO work!
.selected {
color: green;
padding: 20px
background-color: blue;
In this case, the item appears as a blue box with 20px-padding, just as expected - but the font-color is still white.
Can anyone help me?
Regards,
Herman

Hi Mario,
Here's the link to my site:
http://grootaartseuronics.businesscatalyst.com/index.html
I have found a solution myself for 2 of the 3 questions i had:
I have deleted/changed this div: #nav_1371057 li li
And created a few new ones:
#nav_1371057 li li a, #nav_1371057 li li a:visited (To control the link en visited link colors in the sub-menu other than the root-menu)
#nav_1371057 li li a:hover (to control the hover in the sub-menu other than the root-menu if nessesary)
#nav_1371057 li li.selected a (to control the selected link and let the link change color or bolder like in my case)
Here are the CSS styles I used:
#nav_1371057 li li.selected a { /*Dit veranderd de dikte (bold) van de geselecteerde link in het submenu, dus de pagina waar je bent*/
font-weight:bolder;
#nav_1371057 li li a, #nav_1371057 li li a:visited{
background: #006;
color:#ffffff;
#nav_1371057 li li a:hover{
background: #999;
color:#ffffff;
Only thing i can't figure out is how I can change/control the color of the arrow which is black now. And i want to make it blue.
Thanks,
Frank

Traffic to iWeb pages not tracked on .Mac home page?

In the My Pages section of the .Mac home page I see only some traffic data from my old home pages built site. The titles of some of my new iWeb pages appear, but no traffic data. Is there something I have to do to the page to have it tracked?

Add a counter to your page. It's under the Insert menu.

Uploading iWeb pages to different iDisk

Hi,
I have a family pack .mac and iLife and want to add a iWeb created site to one of the sub accounts rather than the main account. Does anyone know how to do it?
Thanks
eMac(s), 12" Powerbook Mac OS X (10.4.4)

I don't know if it will work, but have you tried setting up a new account on your machine and working with iWeb from it for the different iDisk?

Publishing iWeb pages from 2 different Macs

I have recently bought a MacBook to complement my G4 Powermac desktop - the desktop has iLife05 installed and the MacBook iLife06.
I am really enjoying using the iWeb application and would like to be able to publish iWeb pages from both my MacBook and my desktop mac. Is there anyway I can get iLife06 transferred onto my desktop. I have already been firewiring files between the two - can I do the same with software or do I need to buy iLife all over again?

Hi James,
Your response definitely helped me since my boss and I are trying to maintain a website on both of our computers...
BUT, i have a huge problem. Before I knew how to transfer or find the domain files, I used the "FIND" option to search for the domain site on my computer and when i clicked it open, my site didn't come up but rather a prompt asking me what type of website I'd like to create. For months, the website we created showed up every time I opened iweb but now when i simply clicked on domain.site or whatever it was that turned up in the "Find" folder, I can't bring up or locate the site I created on the computer so I have no way to update it or put it on a disc for my boss... Do you have any idea what caused my site to disappear simply by clicking on domain or any idea where i could find my site??
please help!! thanks!
Vanessa
one more thing: is it possible for my boss to edit the content of the website without iweb? could she do it through the actual website with a password or something? just curious... also if i can't get that original domain site back, is there a way i can transfer my website to a different website other than iweb so that i can keep updating without having to redo the whole thing? even being able to transfer separate blogs from iweb to the original site would work too - anything to not have to redo the welcome page and picture pages that are already online

Can you work on the same iweb page on 2 different computers?

hi, i usually work on my imac doing my iweb pages, i would like to work on a second ibook that is in the house. i've tried and tried but can't find a way for the ibook one to pick up the pages. it has the same .mac idisk folder as the other mac with the iweb backup but won't start up with the iweb pages, the iweb starts up blank asking for its first page.
is there a way?
thanks

Chuck thanks, I found I can do it from that post, all you need to do is copy the iweb main folder to a USB mini, then I replace the iWeb folder in the next machine... it works great, you just have to remember to update it when you leave one machine and add the update to the next.

Web page appears different when located on local server

I was editing a web page that is already up and running. Downloaded a copy to my local PC and everything was fine.
Copied all the code to my local Microsoft Windows 2003 server and now the pages appear wrong.
If the file is uploaded back to a website - it appears fine.
This only happens in IE to my knowledge.
My guess is that it is a setting in IE, but I do not know which one.
This is a screen shot showing the bottom of the first page. You can see part of the box is showing up below the bottom of the box which has rounded corners and a drop shadow.
Does anybody have any ideas?
Matt

Thanks for the reply.
I will review those sites and see what I can find.

Video appearing in a different location

Hello everyone,
I'm somewhat new to Dreamweaver and just completed a website with embedded QuickTime videos. All the pages look identical except for one in which the video appears in a different location on the web, than it does in Dreamweaver and the browser preview. The code for each page layout is identical. Any help resolving this would be appreciated.

Post a URL to the page please. The answer is in your code.

Same Safari, same version, same OS, but behaves differently on two machines

I have Safari 5.1.1 installed on two machines. Both have 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.1 installed but some web pages look differently on both machines. There seems to be a problem with browser window sizes. Hmmm ...

Could it be that the software on the installer CDs and via Software Update is "different" from the file I am able to download from Apple's own company website? Hu ... can you make it more complicated?

Thread is behaving differently on different machines??

Hi
I am developing a Java Swing application, which launches an external exe.
Then I am using a Thread to monitor whether the launched exe is running or terminated abruptly by using its PID. If it terminates then the thread shows a msg box.
Everything works fine in my machine and in few other machines.
But the same thread stop abruptly on some other machines... and displays the msg box even though the exe is running correctly.
And I heard thread behaves differently on different CPUs'.
How to handle this situation??
Please help.
This is my code:
public class SolverPoller implements Runnable
        String solver = null;
        int PID;
         * Constructor to initialise the Thread
         * @param programName - Solver execuatable name
         * @param pid - Process ID of the running solver
        SolverPoller(String programName, int pid)
            solver = programName;
            PID = pid;
            //reset the blnClosedAbruptly
            blnClosedAbruptly = false;
        public void run()
            File deleteFile = null;
            try
                //if the stored PID and refreshed are same
                //Continue waiting
                while(checkPIDOfSolver(String.valueOf(PID), solver))
                    //sleep for a sec
                    Thread.sleep(1000);
                //When the solver process terminates
                //interrupt ProgressBarIncrementer Thread
                inc.interrupt();
                if(Delia.getProcessorType() == 'T')
                    deleteFile = new File("TIP3DSolver.res");
                else if(Delia.getProcessorType() == 'S')
                    deleteFile = new File("SPLITVISSolver.res");
                if(!deleteFile.exists())
                    //set it to true, indicating solver terminated abruptly
                    blnClosedAbruptly = true;
                    progressBar.setValue(0);
                    progressBar.setStringPainted(true);
                    progressBar.setString("0%");
                    progressBar.repaint();
                    JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(DentonIntegratedToolApp.getDentonInstance().getFrame().getContentPane(), "Solver terminated abruptly!", "Solver Error", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
            catch(InterruptedException ie)
            catch(Exception e)
            finally
                deleteFile = null;
    }Praveen

I'm not sure if this matters, but it appears that you are calling Swing methods off of the EDT beginning with "progressBar.setValue(0);". What happens if you wrap those calls in a Runnable and call them with SwingUtilities.invokeLater(...)?

Vendor Name Appearing Different for Different Line Items in FBL1N

Hi,
I am executing FBL1N and changing the layout to include the Vendor Name in the line items. But when the line items are appearing, the Vendor Name is appearing different for different documents. I wish to see from where the system is picking up the name, so that I can rectify this. But since the layout is being changed after the report is executed, the debug window is taking me in this. Can someone help me please how to debug so that I can see from where the name is coming?
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Raymond,
Yes it was due to the BADI.

I am trying to create a simple animated gif in Photoshop. I've set up my frames and want to use the tween to make the transitions less jerky. When I tween between frame 1 and frame 2 the object in frame two goes out of position, appearing in a different place than where it is on frame 2. Confused!

Hi Melissa - thanks for your interest. Here's the first frame, the second frame and the tween frame. I don't understand why the tween is changing the position of the object in frame 2, was expecting it to just fade from one frame to the next.

How to add custom link or button to task details page to open a different t

Dear All
In HumanTasks Workflow, On task details page, I want to add a custom link or button. Clicking on this link or button, should load a different task details page.
The exact business usecase is like this:
1. We have some human tasks with very detailed payload like about 100 attributes. When the task is submitted for Approval, we send notification emails. These emails shows the Task Details with all these 100 attributes along with standard Approve, Reject buttons etc. NOW in addition to this, we want to add extra custom button/link like Custom View. When we click on this buton or link, it should replace the task details page with the Custom task details page contents. The reason is most of the managers/approvers access their emails on smart phones like iphones. So in these phones, seeing full task details (100 attributes) is very tedious. So we want to provide a simplified view of same task with very minimum attributes like about 10 with Approve, Reject buttons. Now this compact view details will have a button called Detailed View on click on which it loads details page.
So we want to have 2 pages for a task:
taskDetails1.jspx -> Has all 100 attributes with a custom button/link called "Compact View". Click on Compact View switch to below page.
taskCompact1.jspx -> Has only 10 attributes with a custom button/link called "Detailed View". Click on Detailed View switch to above page.
1. I tried implementing this using the VacationRequest sample where the payload is like creator, startdate, enddate, reason. I already have taskDetails1.jspx page, which shows this information in the email body.
2. I want to add another button to taskDetails1.jspx so that when I click on it, I want to load a different page like taskCompact.jspx which has only say creator, reason.
I already added a link and gave the url with parameters like taskId, taskContext etc which I got from bindings, but nothing is displayed when I click on custom button. The taskId, context values are comming correctly in the url.
So bottom line, what is the URL that I can provide in the task details page, to load a different task details page contents. I want to pass other taskdetails jsp details.
Please let me know, if there is any other approach to implement this usecase.
Thanks in advance
Ravi Jegga

Hi,
I am not sure if you can add your own custom buttons to the application tool bar because your table control is in a sub screen area in a standard screen so the menu area would be controlled by the standard screen and not the subscreen , but along side the table control you can give buttons for scrolling and handle the same in the subscreen if you check the FM EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_002 it has a variable IM_UCOMM which would have the ucomm set in the subscreen so here you can handle your user command to scroll on the table control.

Himanshu
