Just starting out, basic problem here.

Hi, I'm just starting out using DW to create a very basic website. I'm following the tutorial found here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_website_pt1.html
I've created the container div and placed several divs inside of it. So far I've added a background image into one div and am placing text and images on top of the background.
I'm trying to place the business logo image in the top left corner 50px down and 90px to the right (from the top left corner). My CSS for the logo looks like this:
#Main_Logo {
position: absolute;
top: 50px;
left: 90px;
In the design view it looks exactly where it should be, but when I preview the page in Safari the logo is aligned with the very top of the background image and is very far left. Here is an image of what the design view looks like:
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/WCO8H.png[/IMG]
direct link: http://imgur.com/WCO8H
And here is the preview of the page in Safari:
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/8mhDP.png[/IMG]
direct link: http://i.imgur.com/8mhDP.png
Can anyone offer any advice? Why is this happening?
Thanks.

Thanks for the advice Nancy. My plan was to make the logo into a link back the the home page (as you've correctly assumed). So you're saying I won't be able to do that if it is placed inside the background image div? I thought that in order to position divs inside (or on top) of existing divs (like the background image) you needed to place the div you want to appear on top inside of the background div.
Also, here is my code so far:

Hi Newbie111
I see that you are unable to scan with the Photosmart 1315.
What driver are you using?
The driver listed in the url below is a basic print driver that will allow you to print only.

Firefox upon opening an image in a new tab, centers the image from top and bottom and surrounds the image with a grey frame. Just started having the problem today, searched Google to no avail.

Oh wow, looks like a new feature.
The "page" links in a stylesheet with the address "resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css". If you remove that reference, then the image displays in the old style.
'''''Edit: Please skip the rest of this post and check out the next one.'''''
There might be a more elegant solution than that, but you could use a bookmarklet to strip out that link when you want to view the page in its old style. A bookmarklet is a snippet of JavaScript you save on the Bookmarks toolbar for quick access.
First, copy the following code to the clipboard (it's all one long line):
<br>javascript:var ssheet=document.querySelector('link[href="resource://gre/res/TopLevelImageDocument.css"]'); if(ssheet)ssheet.parentNode.removeChild(ssheet); void 0;
Next, if you are not displaying the Bookmarks Toolbar, use View > Toolbars > Bookmarks Toolbar to display it. (If you aren't using the classic Menu bar, press Alt+v to call up the old View menu. Right-clicking the gray area just below the page address also allows you to display the Bookmarks Toolbar.)
Right-click on the Bookmarks Toolbar (or Mac equivalent of right-click!) and choose New Bookmark.
Paste the code into the Location box (the second box).
Then type a useful name in the Name box (e.g., Oldstyle Picture) and click Add.
Now, when you want to tweak the image display, click the button to run the script.
Manual clicking is a hassle, so it might make sense to look into other solutions. (Greasemonkey didn't seem to work; I think it might not run on .jpg files.)

Upon start up of my laptop I get a APS Daemon.exe system error - MSVCR80.dll is missing. This just started out of the blue. At one point it told me to reinstall ITunes. Is that truly necessary?

I have the same issue after installing the new update and reinstalling iTunes doesn't fix the issue.
I found disabling Apple push (APSDaemon.exe) from the start up will stop the error from appearing, however this will disable wireless syncing. If you don't use it than it shouldn't be an issue.
I'm using a PC so you can disable it using the msconfig command and turning it off in the Startup tab. I don't know if Mac users are experiencing the same issue. Hopefully Apple will fix it in their next update.

I have now recently downloaded 10.0.2 which is confusing in itself, as, as far as I can ascertain that is actually version 11, but I'm not even sure about that.
Version 10.0.2 is the newest version and the successor to GarageBand '11 (version 6.0.5).
The '11 is referring to the iLife '11 suit of multimedia application - the older GarageBand was a part of this bundle.
Have a look at Edgar's graphical enhanced manuals, the explain very detailed how things work and why. You can buy them as iBooks from the iBook store or directly from the page:

Need an iphone for dev work - just starting out

Hello
I'm just starting out with iphone development. I already have another mobile service that I use for personal use so don't have the need for iphone personally. I just want to buy it for development work and will be using my WiFi network as the internet bone.
I dont want to get into a contract with at&t for 2 yrs. Does that mean I will need to buy an iphone for the regular price? Or can I get one cheaper than usual just for dev work?
All responses appreciated.

thanks again Tamara.
I googled a bit and found this post-
http://alexking.org/blog/2007/07/02/iphone-without-service
I wonder if this is indeed true.
In any case, I'm strongly leaning towards the ipod touch. Does not having a GPS mean, location based apps won't work? So if I want to download an app that relies on my current location for e.g. to tell me whether my friends are closeby, such an app won't work? Hmm...in that case GPS seems to be necessary.

Just starting out problems!

Hi,
i've just started working with RMI, i created a very simple server and client, ran them successfully both on one machine. When i tried on 2 machines on a home network (2 pcs running XP) the client always has a timeout exception when trying to connect to the server. Following is my code for both:
import java.rmi.*;
public interface RMIServer extends Remote
    public void setResult(String s1, String s2) throws RemoteException;
import java.rmi.*;
import java.rmi.server.*;
public class RMIServerImpl extends UnicastRemoteObject implements RMIServer
    public void setResult(String s1, String s2)
        System.out.println(s1 + " " + s2);
    public RMIServerImpl() throws RemoteException
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
        RMIServerImpl server = new RMIServerImpl();
        String serverName = "//localhost/RMIServer";
        Naming.rebind(serverName, server);
        System.out.println("RMIServer running...");
import java.rmi.*;
public class RMIClient
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
        RMIServer server = (RMIServer) Naming.lookup("//localhost/RMIServer");
        server.setResult("Hello", "World");
}instead of localhost i pur the ip of the server when on 2 machines. Is my code wrong or is it something to do with my network and not Java.
Thank you.

Hello,
You mean windows HOSTS file at windows\system32\drivers\etc\ ?
i did more testing, its works on 2 machines but only with one as server, the other client. If you reverse their roles, making the client a server and the server a client, then the client can't connect to the server.
Is some configuration problem of the LAN causing this? I pinged both PC's addresses and they both seem to see each other. Is there some test i could do to determine the cause.
Thank you.

Just Starting out with java packages

Hello,
I'm a beginner and I'm starting out with java packages.
I wrote two simple .java files, one test program and one containing a simple class.
Both files are compiling without errors but When I run the program I get an error NoClassDeffoundError.
I use the import <package> statement And I think I'm using the CLASSPATH variable correctly.
SET CLASSPATH=d:\nopol
path for the .java containing the test class is:
d:\nopol\utilities \myapp.
In the test file I use "import utilities.myapp.*.
I would be very happy if anyone could help me
Thanks beforehand
Nopol.

The test file should be in d:\nopol, if it's not a part of your package utilities.myapp. Everything should be compiled from d:\nopol, the test class with "javac ClassName.java" and the class in the package with "javac utilities/myapp/ClassName.java".
Your classpath seems fine for now, though. But yes, do add the period there, otherwise you could run into problems later.

I just started having a problem viewing videos, namely youtube. Any suggestions? Thank You. Scott

I just started having problems viewing youtube videos. Other videos on other sites appear to be working. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank You.

A friend recommended this and surprisingly I could watch the videos so apparently my issue is a Flash problem.
Try this test:
Try this, www.youtube.com/html5 and click 'Join the html5 trial' and see if you can watch videos then. If you can, it's a flash issue. If not, I have no idea.
If it's flash, I would upgrade FF to 5.0. I believe it uses built in flash, much like Chrome does.

Basic questions, just starting out

We're looking to install OBIEE 11.1.1.7, ODI, and OBIA (the Student Information Analaytics/SIA portion primarily). I've read a lot of documentation but still having trouble piecing everything together and hoping someone can help out.
In terms of initial setup, we currently set aside two Oracle Linux boxes (OL6) for this purpose. On one we installed Oracle DB 11gR2, but from here I'm a little lost.
Should the ODI server components also be installed on the DB server, with OBIEE installed on the secondary 'app' server?
If so, will both the DB/ODI server need WL as well as the app/OBIEE server?
For developers to work, do they just download and install the ODI Client install and connect to the ODI server components on the DB/ODI server?
Edit - I've also been told by another campus implementing this same project that they ended up installing ODI and OBIEE on a windows server instead of linux because the ODI components are so integrated with the ODI studio that they were unable to succeed with the Linux installation - I know that's vague and probably unhelpful, but are there any reasons why I should not install on linux?
Thanks

Should the ODI server components also be installed on the DB server, with OBIEE installed on the secondary 'app' server?
If so, will both the DB/ODI server need WL as well as the app/OBIEE server?
Weblogic is required for ODI for J2EE Agent and to run ODI Console you can have both ODI and OBIEE on same machine/web logic application server.
For developers to work, do they just download and install the ODI Client install and connect to the ODI server components on the DB/ODI server?
Download the ODI software and install only ODI Studio then connect to Work/Master Repository.
I've also been told by another campus implementing this same project that they ended up installing ODI and OBIEE on a windows server instead of linux because the ODI components are so integrated with the ODI studio that they were unable to succeed with the Linux installation
ODI will work on linux machine without any issues as I said above install studio on windows machine and access the work repository to build mappings/run loads
Thanks,

Im just starting out, what do i need, help please x

hi there everyone, im incredibly new to photoshop, so much so i dont actually evan have a copy of photoshop or any other design program to tell the truth, im a artist and i want to try and get into design based work on my pc, i have had a dabble with my friends photoshop on his computer and really enjoyed it, i evan had a go with a tablet he had,
basicaly i want to know what program is best going to suit me and would i need to buy a complete package or would one program be enough, i dont really know how it all works and to be honest i can get by with computers in general but im not exactly a whizz kid, what i can say is that my computers running on windows vista processor is intel celeron e1200, 1.60ghz, 1gb ram and its a 32 bit operating system and yes i did just copy and paste all that from my system info window
am i going to be able to run photoshop well enough to do the kind of stuff i want? do i need to invest in a better setup? i just thought this would be the easiest way to get a straight answer
cheers
hopeyboy

Here the 2-year college allows people to come in & register for just ONE course. Total cost for Intro to Photoshop AND the software was less than the non-educational software. The ED. package is the same as the full commercial at a lower cost.
Bill
hello again, well basically i work with multimedia images ie, images out of magazines newspapers stuff i see on the tv etc etc and then i make paintings about it all, cutting and pasting and multilayering, if anyone wants to have a quick look http://oryeah.blogspot.comis my would be website, but im also interested in character based design work and poster design so really thats what im aiming to get out of what ever program is better suited to me, creating posters and prints, a course at college or uni would be ideal but i can barely afford the software let alone another education ( ive already studied fine art for 3 years and it was very expensive )
thanks for your comments though but if anyone else can make suggestions id appreciate it

Just starting out in Illustrator, assistance needed!

Hi everyone!
Okay, I'm a long time Photoshop user, first time Illustrator user.
Story: My Mum and I are tag-teaming in designing a logo for a company which sells organic beauty products. Mum is a graphic designer from way back...the kind who made their living long before computers were ever used for the job. She has designed a great logo, while I'm doing the computer side of things (i.e. everything else).
So naturally, I have some questions, and I'm hoping there's someone out there who could guide me in this.
I have discovered that commercial printers want work in Vector files, which is what has brought me to Illustrator. And that's fine, I'm fumbling my way through layouts relatively okay, because I've been using PS for years. But, in these early stages, a few issues have cropped up.
1. My label designs will be printed on a clear label. How do I make the background transparent?
2. How do I scan my Mum's hand drawn logo to make it into a Vector file?
3. The labels will be mainly monochromatic (black/grey). Do I need to seperate colours for commercial printing? How do I do this?
4. What file format should I save my work in for printing?
I've been hearing a lot about LiveTrace, but the problem is - I'm using Illustrator 10! I know, it's old, but it does the job. So any advice that pertains specifically to Illustrator 10 would be great (dust off your memories!)
Please speak in layman's terms with me. Although I'm familiar with PS...the concept of Illustrator and Vector files is very very new to me, and I won't understand complicated actions/terms.
Thank you to anyone who can help me on this, I'll be checking in often.
Cryssie

1. My label designs will be printed on a clear label. How do I make the background transparent?
You don't -- there is no background! (Same as in PS with a new file consisting of one layer.)
2. How do I scan my Mum's hand drawn logo to make it into a Vector file?
Use a scanner
But seriously -- Illy doesn't provide any bitmap stuff. Scan & clean up the image with Photoshop, only then import it into Illy. Put on a layer of its own. Make it slightly transparent. Lock that layer. Create new layer on top, draw lines over them. Done.
3. The labels will be mainly monochromatic (black/grey). Do I need to seperate colours for commercial printing? How do I do this?
What does "mainly" mean? If it's mainly black/grey but still plus some color, that's still color. And even a little bit of color is more expensive than black & white (with, indeed, optional gray).
As for separating the colors, you don't need to. You might want to look into Pantone (spot) color vs. Full color. They both have their advantages, but it's a bad idea to use both.
4. What file format should I save my work in for printing?
Illustrator ought to do fine. In case of doubt, also save as a PDF.

Just starting out - how to connect iChat w/PC friends - video chat

Some members of the family are getting web cams for their Windows PCs and want to video chat with us. We are getting an iMac for Christmas and I've been reading about iChat in this forum and it appears there's a few options. I don't think any of our PC friends are set up yet on any service or system.
Does anyone have any suggestions about where to "nudge" the PC people? Towards AIM, which seems to have some native support for iChat, or towards a Jabber style service ??, or Yahoo or something else? We just want to do video/audio for occasional chats. What compatibility issues are there?
I suppose the best direction would be to get Macs for our friends, that will have to wait In the meantime, what service should I suggest to them so we can all chat together?
Thanks for any advice you can give
iMac 20"

Hi eric4_4,
The nudge can be in two directions.
AIM 5.9 for the PC
Or Trillian Pro at $25.
These are the two apps on a PC that can use the AIM servers.
These applications are not Microsoft ones and need to be enabled as Exceptions through the XP firewall. See here
Further and more detailed instruction on this can be found at http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html
The other Option is to both download either Skype or YakforFree. Both these apps need you to download the version for your computer type.

Just starting out: can I put my script on a test server and move it later?

I'm not a programmer (though I will need to be for our iTunesU setup), so I hope my question will be phrased correctly. We are planning on putting our script on the same server that will run our Moodle site (currently we are running Moodle on a test server). We plan on installing perl so we can run a perl script, as there does not appear to be a php script available.
If we install the script on our test server, will there be a problem when we move the script to our permanent server? Should we wait until our permanent server is up and running?
Thanks, in advance, for your help.

I can't say with certainty that moving your script from one machine to another will "just work" - there are lots of factors that could cause a script not to work when you move it (system configuration, pre-installed software, etc.). However, the practice of moving a script from a development location to a production server is quite common with iTunes U sites. The key piece of information in your script that keeps the relationship secure between an authorizing server and iTunes U is the shared secret. The other variables are also important as well as having the machine be synchronized to network time.

Just starting out, basic problem here.
