Losing CSS Formatting

I am losing the effect of CSS formatting in Dreamweaver Live View and Preview. In Design View, the Web Page shows CSS formatted boxes, shading, borders and fonts.
What could be causing the CSS formatting ot disappear in Live View and Preview while it shows corrctly in Design View ?
I cannot see anything evidently wrong with HTML that includes the style sheet in the web page. I made a small change to the page design and now find I cannot recover the CSS formatting. Or at least not so far....

You would have to provide the HTML/ CSS code. Usualyl when formatting disappers you eitehr have an invalid tag (the design view tries to catches such stuff) or a global CCS rule that overrides others.

If I donwload e-books from various e-book retailers and want to back them up on an external hard drive without losing the format, do I need a special hard drive?

If I download e-books from various e-book retailers and want to back them up on an external hard drive without losing the format, do I need to know anything special?

I just looked into this as I was moving my iPad to a new computer for synching. With no thanks to Kobo for any really useful information on their help site (this discussion was the most useful info I found), I think the following may address your issue with respect to Kobo.
1. There is not easy or official way to back up Kobo books from your iPad.
2. Kobo keep track of your personal library. Go to the Kobo website (Kobo.com) and sign in to your account. On the very top line is "My Library". That contains (or at least Kobo says it does) everything you have ever bought from Kobo. Kobo say that you may download any of this content to other devices you own at no charge.
3. I synched my iPad to the new computer. According to Apple, that will delete all my data as the apps are re-installed from the new compute. While all my apps got moved around from the order I previously had (many thanks Apple), all my books are still there together with my bookmarks etc. Looks like this did nothing to change any Kobo data.
While I do not like the idea that I cannot create a backup on my main computer, it is probably safer in the long run that there is a backup at Kobo. After all, I could lose all my equipment in a fire or something, and then personal backups would be of little use.

How do I duplicate a spreadsheet, then delete all content without losing the formatting?

I am using numbers to do my accounting for my business. I have created a spreadsheet with pre-formatted columns which is proving VERY useful. I have a drop-down list of "suppliers" which I will add to each month but the problem I have is that when I try and duplicate the spreadsheet (ready to start scratch for next months accounts) I'm struggling to delete all the data from the spreadsheet WITHOUT losing the formatting.
Any help is appreciated.

"Okay so to be more specific there is one particular column called "suppliers" which is formatted to be a drop down menu. This menu will be added to monthly thus growing larger and becoming comprehensive. What's the best approach to be able to start fresh every month but with the most recent and up-to-date "suppliers" menu?"
I'd suggest using a two template (or template plus document) approach.
The template would include the message "Paste POP-UP Here. Fill down" in the top cell of the Suppliers column.
The second template (or regular document) contains the current version of the pop-up menu cell.
Open both,
in the single cell document, select and edit the pop-up menu to include the added suppliers. When done, select the cell and Copy.
Switch to the document produced by the main template. Select the cell with the message (and the rest of the column below that cell) and Paste.
You now have an empty spreadsheet with pop-up containing the current supplier list.
If you add a supplier in mid month, you can add that supplier to the pop-up menu in the current row of the document, and Fill the edited menu down from there.
At the end of the month, if you have made additions to the menu list, select and copy a cell containing the most recent version, switch to the single cell document, select that cell and Paste. This updates the single cell to contain the current version of the pop-up menu, ready to be pasted into the next month's document.
Regards,
Barry
PS: On re-readiing this, I'd also consider skipping the production and saving of the one cell document. The most current version of the pop-up menu will be the one at the bottom of the Suppliers column of the month just ending. That cell can be copied, pasted into the top cell of the column in the new month's table/document, then reset to the 'no entry' item, then filled down the column.

No css format on page created from template

We are running Dreamweaver 8.0 on a Windows 2000 & a
Windows XP machine.
After re-creating a site (local site is now pointing to a
file on a locally networked computer) I created a template (.dwt)
file. The template looks fine.
When I try to create a web page from the template all the css
formatting disappears. (Although if I ignore that and dump text
into the editable portion the page looks ok after transfer to the
"live" site.) The href created by Dreamweaver from the site info
is: file://networkcomputer/deptfolder/website/my.css
What do I need to change and will Dreamweaver translate an
altered href correctly when transferring a new page to the "live"
site?

This looks right -
<link rel="stylesheet" href="../pplpage.css"
type="text/css" />
assuming that is the correct location of the CSS file in your
site. Is it
at the root level?

Need CSS formating help

I'm new to CSS and I am used to HTML tables but I have a new
client who needed a site in CSS. (I used one of the Dreamweaver
tempates) After using the template I needed to put in a flash app
where a jpg was and now the center text formating gets screwed up
if you resize the page too small:
www.shepherdeat.org
I was wondering what I should do so that the text stays
relative instead of running over other site elements?

How is it a client "needs" a site in CSS? I'm just curious.
> I used one of the Dreamweaver tempates
Uh oh. You have gotten into a world of hurt with this
template. Do not use
it if you are not very comfortable with HTML, CSS, and
javascript. As it is
now (given how you have hacked the menu), the page throws a
continuous
stream of javascript errors. This means it's unusable for
anyone that has
these javascript error alerts enabled.
Please forget the DW templates, and get one here -

Losing Bold Format in Framemaker 10

Hello,
I have been having a problem with the format of my headings, footers and logos losing the bold appearance in Framemaker 10. When the document was created according to our EDD, template and paragraph designer, certain Headings were defined as BOLD along with the company logo and some content in the footer. For the past couple of days any BOLD formatting has disappeared from certain sections in my book and has become regular weight (although it still retains the BOLD status in the paragraph designer it is applying a regular weight font). Therefore I have to re-apply all heading elements etc in order for this BOLD format to take affect again. I do this save the document and sometimes it disappears yet again then I need to apply the elements all over again.
Can you please explan to me why this is happening and if there is a solution to fix this.
Thanks
Anne Macfarlane

There could be several causes on this. The EDD rules are applied in an order, so it could be that you have a rule that says "use a para tag that is bold" and another rule somewhere that says "make it regular" and then you have a conflict. A few questions for you:
1. Does this happen in a consistent way? That is, can you recreate the issue "at will" by building a specific combination of elements.
2. Can you move the elements to another location in your structure and have the bold "come back" when you reposition this?
If those are in fact things that happen, then review the EDD carefully to ID the right combinations. My guess is that you have a combination of rules (such as First or Last para rules, or some type of character level format) kicking in and messing with the files.
Check to see what para tag is applied, but also check the element as well as its parent and other ancestors. ID if any of these are driving a change. This will mean digging in the EDD a bit though, so you need to be comfortable with that. Worst case, you may want to see if anyone who consults on EDD development can help out. It should be fixable, and my guess is that even someone who doesn't know your EDD specifically can find and ID the issue in about an hour or so. Note that this is a knee jerk estimate, but finding and fixing this shouldn't be the toughest thing to do.
Hope this helps,
Bernard

SelectManyCheckbox and CSS formatting

hi,
im using the selectManyCheckbox component in my webapplication. i get the selectItems that you can select from my database. there are about 6 possible choices. my problem is that all checkbox-elements are displayed in a row next to each other. i want to display each checkbox in an own row. how can this be done? by a styleSheet? i'm new at using stylesheets, and i don't know how this could be done, so it would be nice to post an example css for formatting a checkbox. or can it be done by jsf itself? it would be nice from you to tell me.
thx

Use layout="lineDirection". It's an attribute on the selectManyCheckbox tag.
No need for CSS in this particular solution.
Please use the TLD docs to find out what attributes are available and what they do:

Why isn't my CSS formatting showing up?

Can someone pls review:
www.emergesolutions-temp1.info/case_studies.html
and tell me why my formatting isn't applying to the header
titles as I laid
out in the CSS?
The title "Company A Case Study" is supposed to be a dark
blue and the
"Background" is supposed to be a light blue. I can see where
the tags call
the classes I created but they are not showing up in the
browser.
I'm sure I'm not doing something right with CSS but I just
don't know what.
Thanks!

Joe --
I think she's talking about the heading below that table. The
text just
above "Background". She's specified the class
".case_study_header" but it's
not being applied.

Sharepoint losing html formatting

I am getting a sharepoint formatting error where our sharepoint site loses its html formating. The picture bellow is what it is suppose to look like and the one under it is the formatting error I am getting. This error is coming up on several machines in
our network. At first I thought it was the browser that was causing this but on some machines this error occurs on chrome and some on internet explorer on others it happens on both. This error also occurs accross operating systems on both windows 7 and XP.
I also checked the different versions of chrome and internet explorer and all the explorers are the same but some are getting error while others arn't. I also checked whether or not if updates of the machines had anything to do with it and there was no corrolation
between the error and the update versions. This error has been occuring for a few weeks now and any new machines that access the sharepoint page is getting the error on both internet explorer and chrome. If anyone has any ideas as to why this is happening
it would be greatly appreciated.<o:p></o:p>

I installed fiddler and it appears that it is an authentication error. I went to the developer tools in chrome and it gave me the errors below. Also it appears that the error occurs consistently on both chrome and internet explorer for any new
users that join the domain

Modify StyledEditorKit's text without losing text formatting

How do i modify text in a StyledEditorKit (RTFEditorKit in my case) without losing the text's format/style?
This is my code right now. Whenever i modify the text, the modified part reverts back to the default font, size and style.
          toUpper = new myAction("To Upper Case", new ImageIcon(), "", new Integer(KeyEvent.VK_U))
               public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae)
                    try
                         String s = FileIO.fio.ep.getSelectedText().toUpperCase();
                         int start = FileIO.fio.ep.getSelectionStart();
                         int end = FileIO.fio.ep.getSelectionEnd();
                         FileIO.fio.ep.getDocument().insertString(end, s, null);
                         FileIO.fio.ep.getDocument().remove(start, end-start);
                    catch (CannotUndoException e) {}
                    catch (Exception e) { /*e.printStackTrace();*/ }
          };FileIO.fio.ep is a JEditorsPane with the RTFEditorKit installed
FileIO.fio.rtfek is the RTFEditorKit
Edited by: h_howee on Apr 29, 2008 4:36 PM

You pass null here.
FileIO.fio.ep.getDocument().insertString(end, s, null);
That's why the attributes are reset.
You mut get proper attributes and pass them in the method.
Cast the FileIO.fio.ep.getDocument() to StyledDocument, get Character element from the document using caret postition and get the attributes from the element.

Losing type formatting when adjusting tabs.

I am losing formatting when I adjust tabs in CS6, specifically today I am losing space after paragraph setting but I have lost other formatting I think at other times. I think this only began in CS6, I cannot find a relevant post, thanks in advance for any help.

AI CS6 (16.0.5), I am using a Mac Pro, OS X 10.8.5.
I am attaching a screen shot, somewhat redacted. I have 147 pts space added to the paragraph at bottom of Bonus Payments section, the line beginning "$100,000 and above." If I adjust the tab of just just one line in that paragraph, I keep the space after the paragraph. If I adjust the tabs of the whole paragraph, my space after paragraph reverts to 0. This happens to me all the time, I think it is unique to CS 6 as well as I can remember.
Let me know if you need more info, thanks.

Why is my outgoing e-mail losing all formatting

When I send an e-mail from my iPad 2, all formatting (paragraphs, etc.) is lost and everything is pushed together. Can I fix this without looking for a specific e-mail app? If not, what e-mail app is best?

It's quite normal for you to have a non-Apple address as your Apple ID, and when you create an iCloud account you then create an @icloud.com address. You can't make that your Apple ID - you can change the ID to another non-Apple address if you want to, but not to your @icloud.com or other Apple address.

Why is the CSS formatting different?

When using live mode and browser preview mode using chrome, the formatting of my page is as it should be. However, when I use the chrome browser and enter my url and go to the specific page the formatting is not correct. By the way it is as it should be in safari, firefox and ie.

Losing word format when 'Placing' from Microsoft Word to InDesign

Hi Everyone,
Whenever I place(import) a word document with some text/charts into InDesign the format seems to go all over the place and I find myself trying to put everything back in place(despite having done the formatting in WORD previously). Is this an issue with InDesign or am I doing something wrong? Please help me out..
Thanks,
Agassi

You'll have to be more descriptive.
Is it the styles like Bold, Italic, Superscript etc.?
Is it the layout? The tables going wonky?
When you import a word file you can go to File>Place, locate the file and then in the lower left corner of the Place Dialog Box is SHOW OPTIONS.
Here you can select multiple ways to import the file retaining or disgarding styles, footnotes, tables, numbered lists etc.
When you retain the styles the styles are not built the same as InDesign would have you build them. Unless you were meticulous about the Word Styles you used and created Bold Character styles and Italic Character Styles when building the Word file.
Otherwise you get all the text with Paragraph Styles that are overridden, like if you have a paragraph style with Times Roman and mid-way through the paragraph stylet he Times Roman changes to Times Roman Bold, well then in InDesign that is considered a Text Format Override, which is donated by the + symbol being active in the Paragraph Style Panel at the bottom. If you place the text cursor in this bold text and hit the Paragraph Override button (+) then it reverts back to Times Roman.
A nifty script to get around this is http://www.indesignsecrets.com/downloads/PreserveLocalFormatting.jsx
Copy that text to notepad or a text editor (not word as it upsets things) save the file as PreserveLocalFormatting.jsx and run the script on text in the document)

The script will create Character Styles for any text that needs it in the selected story(s)

As for Tables
I'm not a big fan of Word Tables anyway, and Word uses RGB anyway, so I prefer to strip out all the formatting in tables as Tabbed Text and then reformat the Table this way. I just find it does a cleaner job.
