JQuery widgets, formally known as Spry assets - go away forever please
Is there no way to completely shut this off? I'm so tired of getting that warning when I try and save a site's configuration. 'Warning: The jQuery assets folder is not inside the site. Please select a valid folder in your local site root'. It prevents me from saving so I have to remove the site, edit the .ste file manually, then re-import it. This is quite a pain in the *** when you manage over 200 sites, of which non of them use jQuery widgets or Spry assets.

DW 6.1 (eLearning suite) on Windows7. My insert menu has a spry widget browser but I cannot add widgets to it. I also cannot see where I can add the jQuery widget browser that I see discussed elsewhere. Please help ... I need a pagination widget (backward, forward) and a couple of others ... that is DW-compatible and works with IE8. Thanks!
You're absolutely correct, Nancy O. about the version. I have happily found the Spry insert stuff and have implemented it in a tabbed menu and vertical navigation. Thanks, also for clarifying "plug-ins" as opposed to "widgets".
I was hoping for Adobe-blessed "thingiemabobs" and "doohickies" to show pagination, forward/backward, and so on to minimize integration pain with DreamWeaver's CourseBuilder extension, which is a non-negotiable part of the eLearning Demo I must create.
What I was hoping to find was the answer to "how do I get jQuery UI onto my insert menu?" I see demos where it appears just below the Spry entry, but it seems as though it's only for "CC."
Thanks for your reply. If you have guidance about getting the jQuery UI on the insert, I'd be grateful.

Jquery widget equivalent to spry dataset for dreamweaver CC 2014.1?
I built a website a while back with either CS4 or CS5. I used spry datasets to pull menu items into the tables on the website. I did some research and found that spry widgets were pulled from the CC suites for some reason and replaced with jquery widgets. I'm not 100% sure why adobe did this, but what jquery widget equivalent is there for the spry datasets in dreamweaver cc 2014.1?
Thanks for your help everyone!

l keep trying to set up a new site on CS 5.5 only to keep being told l need a spry assets folder, l have created my own folder named assets folder within my site folder,l have done a seperate folder ,l have looked through all files cannot find any other folders named this. l have downloaded sample files from Adobe & it still hasn't worked. What an earth can l do l'm sure its something silly as you probably guessed l'm a bit of a novice but this is driving me crazy & why do l need a spry assets folder when l'm not using any spry widgits. Any advice or solutions would be great.
Thank You for your time.Whenever I set up a new site, I use a "default" setup I learned from Lynda.com.
First a folder with the site name.
Inside that a folder named "www"
Inside that five folders named:
"css" <-for stylesheets other than SpryAsset css
"files" <- for anything that that doesn't go elsewhere
"images" <-for all site images other than SpryAsset images
"scripts" <-for javascript files other than SpryAsset scripts
"SpryAssets" <-Note the capitalization and that it's all one word. DW is VERY picky about this. This folder holds Spry CSS, Spry javascripts and Spry images
In your root folder create a folder and name it SpryAssets and DW will acknowledge it as your Spry folder.
Some people prefer to use "styles" instead of "css". This isn't a big deal.
Some people prefer to use "js" instead of "scripts" but if you embed a flash object, DW will create a "scripts" folder and suddenly you have two folders for javascripts, so I prefer to just have the one named "scripts". -
Can anyone explain why all of my Spry Assets on a live website have suddenly stopped working?
Can anyone explain why all of my Spry Assets on a live website have stopped responding? I have checked that the Spry CSS and JS files are in place. Then checked the files on Dreamweavers live view and they are not working there either. It was fine a few weeks ago, it is almost as if the web browsers have stopped rending Spry, for example, the links for the collapsible panels are not even being recognised as links.
I am using 'old' spry assets on Dreamweaver CS4 (if that makes a difference). The Spry Assets used are Tabbed Panels and Collapsible Panels.
Thanks for your help.Something has been going on, when I look at the bottom of your document (as pasted below), this is normally all at the top after the links to external style sheets.

Updating from Spy widgets to Jquery widgets
I have vertical tabbed panels on my website. Dreamweaver CC 14.1 does not support Spry anymore. Is there a (simple) way to change my Spry widgets to Jquery widgets?
This is the markup for Spry:
<div id="TabbedPanels1" class="VTabbedPanels">
<ul class="TabbedPanelsTabGroup">
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab" tabindex="0">Tab 1</li>
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab" tabindex="0">Tab 2</li>
<li class="TabbedPanelsTab" tabindex="0">Tab 3</li>
</ul>
<div class="TabbedPanelsContentGroup">
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">Content 1</div>
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">Content 2</div>
<div class="TabbedPanelsContent">Content 3</div>
</div>
</div>
This is the markup for jQuery:
<div id="Tabs1">
<ul>
<li><a href="#tabs-1">Tab 1</a></li>
<li><a href="#tabs-2">Tab 2</a></li>
<li><a href="#tabs-3">Tab 3</a></li>
</ul>
<div id="tabs-1"><p>Content 1</p></div>
<div id="tabs-2"><p>Content 2</p></div>
<div id="tabs-3"><p>Content 3</p>/div>
</div>
The constructors is vastly different.
Spry:
var TabbedPanels1 = new Spry.Widget.TabbedPanels("TabbedPanels1");
jQuery:
$(function() {
$( "#Tabs1" ).tabs();
The good part is that you can keep the content. -
Can't create new site, no Spry Assets folder
I'd be very grateful if someone could help me with this please: I have tried creating a new site and when I try to define the site, I get an error message telling me the Spry assets folder is not inside the site. I have tried creating a SpryAssets folder inside my root folder and still no luck. I don't use spry widgets. I don't want to start using them. Why can't I create a root folder without them?
Additionally, when I try editing an existing site I keep getting an error message telling me that the root folder does not exist. It does exist since I can navigate to it; and when I try to redefine it I once again get the above error message regarding Spry assets!
Please Help!!Keep the default value for the SpryAssets folder.
The folder will not be created until you start using Spry widgets -
JQuery widgets not working in CS3
I have been using the widget browser to download JQuery widgets. As I cannot insert them in DW CS3, I am simply copying the folder into the root along with the html page displaying the browser. For some reason I lose the styling and JS when I open the page in DW, even though the page works fine when opened in the folder I initially downloaded to. What am I missing here?

I don't know which widgets you're try to view in DW, but the Design View does not execute JavaScript, so you probably won't be able to see most jQuery widgets in CS3. You can see the Spry widgets in CS3 due to Translators which were written for exactly that purpose.
Starting with DW CS4, you can view them in Live View, which does execute JavaScript.
Hope this helps,

Spry Assets not working?
I am new to DR
I got a spry menu bar to work with a drop down... it works
fine when I view the page.
I uploaded the site using WSFTP AND the DR built in
uploader...
It seems the spry menu bar is missing something... is there a
trick?
The links are there but they are ALL on the left hand side
and don't look ANYTHING like a spry menu... just links with a DOT
beside them.
Thanks in advance.
DaveYou'll need to do the same thing here as well, unless you
just move the spry
folder to the root.
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryMenuBar.js"
If you keep the spry assets folder in "ledman":

When must you FTP the Spry Assets Folder.
Must the Spry Assets Folder be FTP'ed every time you make a change to the CSS Spry sheets like background color or font color ...etc in Dreamweaver. I think it is a mute question but a set of rules would be a big assist. Thanks.
joepdThanks Beth.

You actually are asking a very basic question, and the answer is also
basic.
Here's the rule of thumb:
Whenever you change something in a file, you may FTP it to the server, if
you want your changes to be reflected in your page online. You will seldom
if ever change your .js file; so you will probably never have to FTP that
more than once. If you are making changes to your .css Spry stylesheet,
you will want to FTP those changes. And, of course, if you change the
.html page, you will want to FTP that.
It is not necessary to FTP the entire SpryAssets folder, just the files
that change.
It is also not necessary to FTP while you are still working on the pages
during a single session. Because you may preview them locally in a browser,
you might only FTP the changed files at the end of your editing session, to
finally check out the pages online.

Host does not recognize Spry Assets Folder
I am using a host named "Dream Host" and after I uploaded the
website all that showed was a menu bar in outline form. The only
thing I found that worked was to upload the Spry Assets into the
same folder with my pages and delete the "Spry Assets" that pointed
to the folder. An additional problem is the gif arrow images are
not showing in this option after I deleted the "Spry Assets Folder"
from the tags. I am not sure why my website is not working with the
folder. Any help is appreciated.
Thank You,

Regarding the images not showing up, you'll need to update
the paths to the images in the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css to remove
the SpryAssets folder that you removed to make the menus work.
No idea on why the SpryAssets folder wouldn't work out,
perhaps it didn't get up loaded to the correct place?
PS: You have the SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css file attached
twice, you should remove one of the instances.

Horizontal Menu Bar (using JQuery as opposed to Spry Assets)
In older versions, used SpryAssets to create a horizontal menu bar, but that is no longer supported. CC has lots of JQuery inserts, but none for a Horizontal Menu Bar. What do i do to create one?
Below are a few more menus you could use:

JQuery widgets - menu and slideshows?
I'm a teacher and I'm teaching a basic web design class.
in CS6 it was so easy to add a menu and image slide shows using spry
In dreamweaver cc I have seen in examples the jQuery has a menu option but mine does not. Any idea how I can find/activate that option?
Also is there a widget I can get for my students for slideshows? I haven;'t been able to find one that doesn't require writing a lot of code. While some of my students are really grasping code and would be ok I have many that code is still Greek to them.
I would really like to find a widget for them to use.
ThanksDon't know of any free widgets but plenty of reasonably simple solutions for sliders you can use.

DW CS5 Warning message: Spry Assets folder is not in site
Hi,
I am trying to define a new site in 'Manage Sites' window. the following warning keeps coming up and doesn't allow me to save the site.
I have created a folder named 'SpryAssets'. Even that doesn't help. Any help?. .Thanks Randy,
This is how it went...
I specified the SpryAssets folder in Spry pane of 'Site Setup' Dialogue box...
But when I pressed the save button, this window popped up.
I know there's something I'm missing, probably very basic. Since, I don't intend to use Spry for now, can I just this thing off somewhere? Through some kind of preference or something? I've checked the help docs as well. Couldn't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
Kind regards
