IWeb site browser background way off

Hi, I have recently developed a website called VoiceFromHevin.com.  The site looks great on pretty much any computer browser.  However, on the iphone and ipad the browser background is completely off from where it should be.  If you go to the site on your ipad or iphone and go past the first page, you will see what I'm referring to.  The Welcome page looks just fine, it's after you enter into the rest of the site that things get crazy. Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks!!

The player requires the QuickTime plugin. Launch it in Firefox and you'll see.
Both Flowplayer and JWLongtail will plsy in all browsers and on most devices...

If you want to put more than a couple of tracks on a page its better to use a playlist player...

There are online site builders that specialize in portable sites and you could see if one of those has a suitable design. You would need to put a fingertip sized button on your regular site in an appropriate place so that portable device users could switch over to it.
Wix are known for their flash sites but they now have a section for mobile sites...
http://mobile.wix.com/
They use the same liquid style layout that I have been experimenting with. I'm trying to refine the design to make it suitable for all devices and browsers - with a little help from my friends at Rage Software!
There are quite a few ways of adapting sites for mobile devices from fairly simple to downright complicated. I'm trying to achieve a one size fits all with minimal code. The online outfits like Wix, Weebly etc product far too much code and their media players are not exactly state of the art.

  • How can i change my Browser background image size in Iweb???

    Hello,
    I am trying to upload a picture to use in iweb as browser background which will be fixed.
    The problem is that when i upload the image it doesn’t appear in full. It zooms in a portion of the image.
    This is really annoying and have been trying to change it for days.
    Have a look and it might give you a better idea http://www.inthepocketdrumstudio.com
    Can anyone help please?
    Thank you. A

    I really do not know what resizing the browser windows means.
    Perhaps I must go back to school again.
    Ah, I remember. Drag the bottom right-hand corner of the browser window to resize it.
    Anyway, here's the widget page :
    http://www.inthepocketdrumstudio.com/InThePocketDrumStudio_files/widget0_markup. html
    You should move the image out of the InThePocketDrumStudio_files folder.
    With the code i provided the image will display in the webpage.
    Also remove the image as background in iWeb.

  • Is there a way to have files available for download on your iweb site?

    Ok here's the question. If I wanted a image file or music file to be available for download on your iweb site.....would that be possible?
    Kind of like when you go to a website and sometimes it has a link you can press to download a file. If you click the file then the "save as" or "download" window opens depending on your browser.
    Is something like this available on an iweb site? If so then how would you create something like that? Any help would be appreciated.

    audiophiler,
    There are two ways to link to files with iWeb. The approach that iWebFaq outlines results in iWeb making a copy of the file in question and storing it in the domain.sites file. Then, when it publishes your website, it puts a copy of the file in the right place in the folders it publishes. Visitors to your site then download that copy.
    You are correct that you can put things in your public folder of your iDisk for download. But the process of linking to those files is different. When you set up the link in iWeb (using the inspector) you need to choose "external link" and provide the url of the file in question.
    For more background on the differences between these approaches, and the advantages of each, see this thread. That thread also has some good links for sorting out what the url of the files in your public (and other) folders of your iDisk are.

  • Question for Varkgirl re: browser backgrounds in iWeb

    Hi Varkgirl
    Been checking out your iWeb FAQ site (if anyone needs iWeb help, your first port of call needs to be http://web.mac.com/varkgirl/iWeb/iWebFAQ/FAQ%20Home/FAQ%20Home.html), loving your work hun!
    Just a quick question - how did you get the browser background? The standard options in the Page Inspector only seem to be colours.
    Many thanks!

    I think varkgirl is asleep over there in the EST timezone...so I hope she doesn't mind me jumping in here....
    Are you talking about the striped background? It's the standard browser background for the "Notebook" theme. If you want to use it you can select the blank template and get rid of the header and footer images.
    You can also just take this image.... and use it to tile any other template page of your choosing....

    Just look in the Inspector Page tab and under either Page or Browser background, select image and then tile.

  • I cannot open my iWeb site with any browser

    I have had an iWeb site which has been live for about a month. It has been working perfectly. It still appears to be working well within iWeb. I can make changes and publish changes.
    When I now search the internet using any browser, it says
    [Safari] can't open the page "http://www.mydomain.com" because the server where this page is located isn't responding.
    I have checked my .mac account and everything seems to be fully functional. Why has my site suddenly disappeared off the internet?

    HI and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
    Try deleting thesee files.
    com.apple.mobileme.configuration
    com.apple.mobilemesyncclient
    Here's the path: ~/Library/Caches/
    Move those files to the Trash and retart your Mac.
    Try to access your site. If that didn't help...
    With iWeb open from the Menu Bar click File/Visit Published site
    Then go to File/Publish Entire Site to MobileMe and see if that helps...
    If not more help here. http://web.me.com/YourMobileMeAccount/
    Also, In your Finder: Go/ iDisk / My iDisk which will mount your iDisk on your Desktop if it is't alerady there. Open your iDisk then go to the iDisk/ Web / Sites folder to see if your website folder is there along with an index.html file.
    You can read posts from iWeb users on Facebook also.

  • I am developing a site where the content is 1300 pixels in depth but the browser background is 2500 pixels in depth. I want the browser background to be just a little longer than the content, but cannot seem to make that happen. Does anyone have an idea

    I am developing an iWEB site where the content is 1300 pixels in depth but the browser background is 2500 pixels in depth. I want the browser background to be just a little longer than the content, say about 1340 pixels, but cannot seem to shorten the browser measurements. Does anyone have an idea how I can solve this problem?   I have tried to make height adjustments in the Page Layout section of the Inspector, but content height heading has no affect on anything.  I have built about 75 sites in iWEB and this is my first experience like this.

  • I had a drive failure and lost the iWeb file along with other things.   I did manage to save a lot of user file documents but I don't see or   recognize the my iWeb site file. It was on a 15" G4 Titanium pb. I'm trying to find a way, using version 2.0.4

    I did manage to save a lot of user file documents but I don't see or 
    recognize the iWeb site file. It was on a 15" G4 Titanium pb.
    I'm trying to find a way, using version 2.0.4 of iWeb on a different 
    pb to recover the file into the iWeb app or a way to download the site into iWeb.
    There are 6 pages of images and text, and it 
    would be a task for me to recreate the whole thing again. I did 
    download the site but I don't know how or if I can get iWeb to see it and open it.
    Does anyone have any knowledge about this? The link to my site:

    Unfortunately iWeb cannot read or import previously published files, only generate them.  You'll have to recreate your site from scratch.
    However, Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the recreation of the site.

  • Viewing iWeb site in OS9 browser - anyone done it successfully?

    Hi folks - I made an iWeb site yesterday and although it looks great on my OS X system under Firefox and Safari, my husband running OS 9.2.1 on a G4/733 cannot view the site successfully at all.
    In IE 5.0 it loaded up OK but the menu links at the top of the home page didn't work, in Netscape (7, I think) the layout is all over the place, iCab 3 loads the layout OK, the menu links work, but it only briefly flashes the placed images up and then they vanish again. Has anyone managed to view an iWeb site OK using an OS9 browser? Any ideas what the problem is?
    Thanks a lot!

    Thanks for your message Antonio. I did upgrade the version of IE to 5.1.7 but unfortunately the problem with th rollover links still remains. I am using the 'Formal' template and it's the small rollovers generated at the top of each page that don't work under that browser in OS9. I have got around the problem by manually including a second set of hyperlinks lower down on each page, to duplicate the rollovers, but this is a bit of a pain of course. Oh well, may just have to work on my DH to upgrade to OS X!
    Thanks for your suggestion.

  • Safari Private Browsing Logs Me Off Sites

    If I am logged into sites like gmail, facebook, bankofamerica, etc, and then turn on private browsing in Safari, I am logged off those sites and cannot log back in until I turn off private browsing. Is this supposed to happen? I would think that one of the main reasons to use private browsing is to cover your tracks when using these types of sites especially. Thanks,

    With iOS 7 on the iPad, you turn Private  Browsing on and off by tapping the URL field.  The screen that  opens up has your bookmarks on it.  In the bottom left corner is a hot button marked 'PRIVATE'.  Tap on the word 'PRIVATE' to turn private browsing on or off.  Yeah, there aren't any instructions anywhere that I can find to do this, and if you follow Yahoo's instructions, they don't work.  This doesn't happen with the previous Apple OS, and you can restore your iPad to the older OS. 

  • TS4003 if I am running a mac OS x that is lower than 10.7.2, is there any way to publich my iweb site to icloud (I have an iphone that meets the system requirements)?

    if I am running a mac OS x that is lower than 10.7.2, is there any way to publich my iweb site to icloud (I have an iphone that meets the system requirements)? I'm using iWeb 3.0.1 and previously had my website published to mobile me. 

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, iCloud does not offer equivalents to Mobile Me’s iDisk, Gallery or Web Hosting services. You will need to find a third party solution to replace these services. You might considerDropBox, SugarSync, MediaFire or any other service that offers online storage. (not all these alternatives offer all the services previously provided by iDisk)
    So it won't matter whether you have Snow Leopard or Lion, you will not be able to upload your website to iCloud.

  • Colors in browser way off from what's viewed within Dreamweaver

    I downloaded a 30-day trial of Dreamweaver on Monday, March 28. I finally had a chance to try it yesterday. I like it. There's only one thing: when I view my saved INDEX.HTML file by double clicking on it, IE and Chrome both show the colors as being terribly dark and way off. I racked my brain for over four hours yesterday trying to see what was happening. I even uploaded the file to my ftp site and used my IP address to view it that way (the site will have the domain name attached after it's completed). Same thing.
    Last night I opened the INDEX.HTML file with notepad just to see what could possibly be wrong. There's a few lines of proprietary code from W3C or something. I deleted them and saved it. I double clicked on the file and when it opens, it's perfect.
    What gives?

    Thank you both for your replies. I get pissed because I get ignored on message boards when I ask for help. When someone asks how they can import a flower image into their site, they get 150 replies. I ask on guru about css classes and I get ignored.
    I've been in the printing and publishing business since 1980 at the age of 12. I don't just surf Facebook all damn day long like everyone else abusing this technology. My monitors are top notch and so is my machine. My keyboard is an IBM from 1993 and I want it this way. Corel 9 is the best typesetting program in the world and CorelX4 sucks. I use Photoshop every day and can't find a use for Illustrator. I pushed Sitebuilder to the max and now I need more. I tried CoffeeCup and their graphics output to INDEX kicks Publisher out of the park.
    I need to implement a Member Login so I bought a full license. DW can handle it and none of the others can touch it. My media license with AP announced that our thumbnail video players will be replaced by players that don't use Flash. They're lifeless but I have no choice.
    So here I sit at the age of 42, putting together my weekly newspaper that was started in 2007. I don't have time to screw around. My message board nick is what it is because that's all I do all damn day long -- work. I'm getting married this August for the first time and I don't have any kids. My girlfriend is a virgin and 22 and hot.
    I apologize for being a *****. I take my job and this technology seriously.
    Why doesn't the weather bug show up on my page -- to the right of my flaglogo in the white box? http://96.9.48.31/
    I noticed osgood left it in the revised code, but it still doesn't work after I sent it up to the ftp.
    Thanks,

  • Is there any way to delete a page listing on the top of the IWeb site. I created a page which has links to the other pages, so I don't need all of them listed on top...

    Better ask in the iWeb forum.
    Answer : inspector > first icon from the left > uncheck 'Display navigation menu'
    For future reference, also look at the other icons.

  • Browser address for my iWeb site...

    I would like my browser address to show my official company name i.e. www.mycompany.com instead of what I am seeing which is http://web.me.com/myname/mycompanyname/Home.html. This seems to be making it hard to find my iWeb site on a google search.

    Google doesn't care about your address. It happily indexes your pages as soon as it finds you.
    To use a domain name at MobileMe :
    You publish to MobileMe. With or without a domainname.
    To use your domainname, follow the instructions in your MobileMe account where you setup Personal Domain:
    https://secure.me.com/account/
    Where you'll find a link to [iWeb: Using your own domain name|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1107]
    Or read it in the [MobileMe help|http://help.apple.com/mac/1/help> : Account > Setting up a Personal Domain
    You can have only one domainame with Personal Domain at MobileMe. To use the other one you have to enable URL forwarding where you host your domainname.
    There's also a forum dedicated to this subject : [MobileMe iWeb and Personal Domain|http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1163]

  • How do I get my Old iWeb Sites off my External HD (1 Domain file) and onto my new internal HD?

    I justrecently had to replace my internal HD on my iMac. Before doing it, I backed up my 2 iWeb Sites (the Domain File) onto my external HD.
    Now I have a new Internal HD on my iMac.
    When I open my domain file located on my external HD, iWeb opens. Now I'd like to save the file back onto my internal HD.
    How do I save my 2 web sites that I now see on the left back onto my internal HD. (When I click on "File", "Save", it just saves it again on the external HD, because it's reading the file from the external HD?)
    Thanks....
    Brian

    You need to copy the domain.sites file from the external hard drive into your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on the new hard drive. If there is no iWeb folder in the Applicaiton Support folder create one.
    Be sure it's your home library that you're working in.
    Happy Holidays
