Link to external menu from several pages

I've read David Powers' reply to Bryan Trent in
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSEE4C0148-A6F4-4bf5-9DEF-CE06AB026214a .html
about how to create a single external drop-down (Spry) menu
and link to it from several pages. I don't have a good overall
picture of what's going on. In particular, I'm still confused by
the last 4 lines under step 8.
1. I'm using CS3. Do these steps apply exactly the same to
CS3 as CS4?
2. What extension should I use for the saved external menu
file? Is it a .js file?
3. When I select Insert > Server-Side Include, I don't get
a file type of include, just "all files"
Dreamweaver inserts the following line: <!--#include
file="menu.include" -->
4. Where on the page should I insert whatever line is
supposed to call the menu?
Thank you for help or references,
Bobbi

no it doesn't. getURL() causes no security issues unless you
try to open the html locally and (try to) access something on the
internet.
unless your "flash site" is your local computer there is no
security issue. if your local computer is an internet server, you
just need to set the security settings for your local file and give
it permission to access the internet zone.

  • Opening Cutom page carries menu from Standard page

    Hi,
    I have developed a custom page which I'm invoking from a standard page, by adding a button using personalization and setting it's Destination URI property to the custom page.
    The custom page opens fine, but it has all the menu's, tabs and navigation links that are defined in the standard page. I do not want that to happen.
    Is there any property I need to set?
    Below is a gist of what I've done:
    1) Added a Button (to pageButtonBar).
    2) Created a custom controller which extends the page level controller.
    3) In ProcessRequest of the custom controller, derived a parameter value (from main Page), and set the Button's "Destination URI" property to /man/oracle/apps/ar/creditmgt/webui/UCCSummaryPG&cfId="+cfId+"&retainAM=N" and "Target Frame" to _blank (to open in a new window).
    However, when I test it, the custom page has all the navigation links from the main page. I have tried with retainAM=N and menu=N, but hasn't helped.
    Any pointers to how I can remove the menus from custom page?
    Thanks,
    Ashish

    Hi,
    There is still a small issue in this. I have a delete function, and the user needs to confirm if he wants to delete the entity. But when I use pageContext.redirectToDialogPage(dialogPage), I see the menu's from the standard page.
    Any method to suppress this on the dialogPage?
    Thanks,
    Ashish

  • Link to external URL from flash site

    Is there any way to link to an external URL from your flash
    site without having the flashplayer prompt you to change your
    settings and allow access to that page? (this only applies to swfs
    viewed through a browser)
    the only way around this i've found isn't very useful - you
    have to put a small xml file on the host server where the page you
    want to link to is located. i seriously doubt every site you want
    to link to will allow you to put an xml file on their host server
    just so you can link to their page. the code in the xml file just
    tells flashplayer that the site you are trying to access is safe.
    it's called crossdomain.xml
    anyone have an answer?

  • New Folder link in Ribbon menu, load home page instead of open Folder Name dialog box

    In SharePoint 2013,
    I have created new site collection under "\sites" managed path. Then I have created Sub-Site called "\sites\abc\Mobile" under it.
    Now,
    Site collection - http://sharepointweb/sites/abc and
    Sub-Site - http://sharepointweb/sites/abc/Mobile
    Site Template: Team Site / Publishing Site
    After creation of the above, go to sub-site -> click on "Document" library -> Click on "New Folder" under "File" tab.
    when click on New Folder link, it shows home page in dialog box instead of new folder name popup.
    This is only happening for "Mobile" named sub-site under "/sites" managed path. Please try from your side and let me know.
    May I know what the issue is? Please clarify.

    Hi and welcome to the Blackberry Forums
    1) When ever I have a message notification (be it missed call one or an sms alert),
    it becomes difficult navigating in the "Messages" box : the reason is it opens
    always in the last place where I left it. So I have to press Menu & then scroll down
    to "View Folder" (pressing "v" also helps) & then it says "Select Folder".
    Not, when you have a new message and you go to the message folder you can see the last place where you left, but if you press T (top) you can see the new messages. (always the new messages are in the top and you can't change this) 
    2) How to change the HOME PAGE of the Browser.
    Go to the browser, one you are in press menu, options, browser configuration, and you can change the home page on bottom.
    3) to extend the battery life, I read that all applications should be closed using the
    "Close" option in its Menu. To see which all applications are currently running, one
    should check on "Switch Application" - if you see application their, then it is open.
     The problem I am having is some applications (appearing in S/A mode) I was able
    to close (eg games etc), but some are not getting closed eg :messages, browser,
    bb messenger.
    Please read this link to maximize battery and memory

  • Link to Content Area from ASP page brings up default page

    I have a link on an ASP to the content area. When the user clicks on the link, he/she is required by the portal to provide their username/password. After entering the correct information, the users are displayed their default page NOT taken to the content area.
    Any ideas?

    Unfortunately, the only way to do this would be to not show the sub-folder region and add URL items in another region that link to the folder page in question.

  • Since upgrading to iWeb08 I can't link to my photos from an external forum.

    I have several webpages created on iWeb '06. I use these sites to post photos on the web. I used to link to individual photos on a page so that they would appear in a discussion forum by getting the image URL ending in .jpg, and posting it with BBS tags in the appropriate forum.
    Since upgrading to '08 I can't do this. All the links I have created over the years have been broken and I can't create new ones from a photo page. Even if I find an image url with what appears to be a unique name - it has a number like #3.jpg at the end - when I paste it in the forum, the link defaults to the whole page/slideshow.
    I can get a url of an individual image using the new Web Gallery, but I don't want to have to republish all my pages as galleries.
    Anyone know what I'm doing wrong/differently?

    I tried to connect a Samsung hard drive. Before Mavericks it was working fine. Now it won't appear in Finder and it can't be mounted in Disk Utility. As with previous issues I reported concerning iOS 7 and Mavericks, I wrote in this forum, but Apple never reacts. People are trying to help each other with workarounds, which is great, but the core issue isn't solved by Apple. It seems after Steve Jobs they're not concerned about quality that much anymore. The fact that I can't use a very common Samsung external hard drive on Mavericks is just way beyond deplorable. And what did I get in return? iBooks?

  • How link from html page to a specific frame in flash cs5 as3

    Hi!
    I'm kinda new around here. I am interested in knowing how to link from a specific html page to a specific frame in flash cs5 as3.
    I have a website that I originally began to design in flash but later started developing new pages for it in html. The flash part of it has several pages on different frames and I have created links from the flash part to the other html pages, but, I can only link the html pages back to the main flash home page, and not the other pages in the flash part of the website.
    I have read that in cs3 it was possible using the flashvars skip variable, but I don't know how to do it. I have not yet seen any working examples and I could not find any instructions / tutorials online for cs5.
    Can someone help here?

    add a query string, to the swf's embedding html, with variable/value indicating the frame you want to display in your swf.  add a javascript function to return the query string (or entire url), call the javascript function from flash using the externalinterface class.  and finally add code to your swf to parse the returned url or query string, parse it and then direct your timeline to the appropriate frame.

    It depends on your settings for how you copy/paste. See your

    they are restrictive to what stying is carried into the page.
    > How I do this in a nav bar?
    Change this -
    .nav {
    font: bold normal 14px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    text-transform: none;
    color: #003300;
    font-weight: bold;
    a.nav:link {
    font: normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    text-transform: none;
    color: #003300;
    text-decoration: none;
    a.nav:visited {
    font: normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    text-transform: none;
    color: #003300;
    text-decoration: none;
    to this -
    .nav {
    text-align:center;
    .nav a {
    font: bold normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    color: #030;
    font-weight: bold;
    text-decoration:none;
    margin-right:35px;
    and then change this -
    <div align="center"><a href="index.html"
    class="nav">Home</a>       <span
    class="nav">About
    Us</span>      <a
    href="impact_HE.html" class="nav">Impact of HE
    Proposal</a>      <a
    href="purpose_ED.html"
    class="nav">The Purpose of
    ED</a>      <a
    href="procedures.html"
    class="nav">Procedures </a>     <a
    href="what_can_we_do.html" class="nav">What Can We
    Do?</a></div>
    to this -
    <div class="nav"><a
    href="index.html">Home</a><a
    href="about_us.html">About
    Us</a><a href="impact_HE.html">Impact of HE
    Proposal</a><a
    href="purpose_ED.html">The Purpose of ED</a><a
    href="procedures.html">Procedures</a><a
    href="what_can_we_do.html">What Can
    We Do?</a></div>
    But an even better way would be to make the menu an unordered
    list, like
    this -
    <ul>
    <li><a
    href="index.html">Home</a></li>
    <li><a href="about_us.html">About
    Us</a></li>
    <li><a href="impact_HE.html">Impact of HE
    Proposal</a></li>
    <li><a href="purpose_ED.html">The Purpose of
    ED</a></li>
    <li><a
    href="procedures.html">Procedures</a></li>
    <li><a href="what_can_we_do.html">What Can We
    Do?</a></li>
    </ul>
    And use this CSS -
    .nav {
    text-align:center;
    .nav ul {
    list-style-type:none;
    margin:0;
    padding:0;
    overflow:hidden;
    .nav li {
    float:left;
    width:150px;
    margin-right:5px;
    border-right:1px solid green;
    .nav a {
    font: bold normal 12px/normal Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    color: #030;
    font-weight: bold;
    text-decoration:none;
    If you want to make the current page look like it doesn't
    have a link, then
    do this -
    <ul>
    <li><a href="index.html"
    id="home">Home</a></li>
    <li><a href="about_us.html" id="about">About
    Us</a></li>
    <li><a href="impact_HE.html" id="impact">Impact
    of HE Proposal</a></li>
    <li><a href="purpose_ED.html" id="purpose">The
    Purpose of ED</a></li>
    <li><a href="procedures.html"
    id="procedure">Procedures</a></li>
    <li><a href="what_can_we_do.html" id="what">What
    Can We Do?</a></li>
    </ul>
    and add this to each page (use the proper ID) -
    a#about {
    cursor:default;
    /* any other styles you want to make the current page show
    > I am being a complete idiot today (maybe it's because
    it's Sunday) Can you
    > talk me through this.
    Make the changes manually in code view.

    HTML and CSS
    skills to do this stuff, you are right on target!

  • Linking collapsable spry menu to other html pages

    Hi,
    I dont seem to be able the link the subject within my
    collapsible, to another html page.
    Surely it not hard, can someone explain how I do this, Im
    having a blonde day.
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks.
    I'll try my best to keep replying although I cannot guarantee further responses and no-one else here can help you further without those details.
    Several points:
    See http://www.projectseven.com/products/menusystems/pmm2/ug-examples/includes/index.htm
    (The instructions relate to a commercial product but the principles apply to every SSI.)
    Your include statement is <!--#include file="Includes/thiswillwork.shtml" -->
    The .shtml is required for the parent file to tell the server to parse the Include
    In other words, the parent page should read http://www.yourdomain.com/index.shtml - and every page which has an Include statement must have a .shtml extension. (The article linked above discusses alternatives to this requirement if you talk to your host)
    Then the include reads <!--#include file="Includes/thiswillwork.html" -->
    The include file extension can be anything provided it's correctly linked from the parent page.
    Also, with nav bars, you'll be calling them from every page of your website so you need a site root relative reference, not a document root relative one, so that the include file is correctly referenced from every page of the website regardless of its position in the folder structure.
    i.e. <!--#include virtual="/Includes/thiswillwork.html" -->
    Note: the "file=" changes to "virtual=" and the crucial forward slash in front of Includes.

  • Opening external links in the most recently used page

    I'm having an issue where external links from Mail or elsewhere are always opening up in the oldest page, IE, the page that was opened first, rather than the most recently used page.
    Normally, this isn't that big of a deal, except when the oldest page is minimized, and every time I open a new link, Safari open up that minimized page to load in a new tab.
    Is there any way I can fix this?
    Thanks!

    You can't COMPLETELY remove it, but you can reduce it to one (1) item. Under Preferences>Documents
    1 is the minimum and 10 is the maximum. Hard coded, no way to expand or reduce these limits.
    The ONLY other option is to disable the "welcome screen" altogether under Preferences>General

  • How can I create a rollover drop down menu from a link in Dreamweaver CS5?

    Hello all,  I am working on a portfolio website and I was just wanting to know if there is any way that I can create a drop down menu from a text link that cascades once the cursor has made contact with the link. I would like to have it in my navigation bar where the Portfolio link is. Basically, my navigation bar looks like this : Home | Resume | Portfolio | Contact. I only want three items on the drop down menu beneath the portfolio link: Traditional Art, Photography, Graphic Design. I would really appreciate any help I can get! Thanks!

    Have a look at what Nancy does http://alt-web.com/DEMOS/CSS-Horiz-menu-2.shtml

  • My link preview has disappeared from the bottom left of the page (it no longer pops up when I hover over a link.) Thoughts on how to get it back? I really LIKE having it!

    My link preview has disappeared from the bottom left of the page (it no longer pops up when I hover over a link.) Thoughts on how to get it back? I really LIKE having it!

    It is possible that the screen is too high and that the scroll bar and the find bar and add-on bar fall off at the bottom.
    If that works then close Firefox (File > Exit/Quit) to save that setting.
