Make head /head tags editable within template?

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to create a template and make the area between the <head> </head> editable as I have about 80 pages in my site using my template, but I have about 12 odd pages that use various different javascript libraries and plugins to function. I dont want to apply the scripts and plugins to the template as they are not required, besides they are individual to each page.
Many Thanks for the advice.

If you are using a recent version of Dreamweaver, there should be an editable section in the head of the document just before the closing head tag. It looks like this:


</head>
Insert the keywords, description, links to external files between the Template comments.
If you're using an older version of Dreamweaver that hasn't created an editable region inside the head, copy and paste the template comments into the master template just before the closing head tag, as shown above.

Is it possible to make the body tag of a template editable?

I'm having diffuculty with making the body tag an editable region in the template.
I need to add some onload stuff to a body tag on a page derived from a template. I am not sure if this is possible.
And if it isn't does anyone know a workaround?
Thanks

Problem applying Spry tool tips to child pages because the head tag is in a locked region

I’m new to DW and migrating a site from GoLive CS2 to DW CS5. The site uses templates created in GL CS2. I have stripped out as much GL stuff as possible.
I want to use the SPRY tooltips as a way to show captions for graphics that are on some of the pages (I used to use an Open New Browser window for that but I don’t have as much control in DW as I did in GL). But when I try to apply SPRY tooltips (or any SPRY widget for that matter) I get the following message:
“Required links could not be added to this file because the <head> tag is in a locked region. To insert this content, open the template file ‘xyz.dwt’ and either unlock the <head> tag or add this content to the template.”
I am not sure how to go about solving this problem. In the template there is an editable region for adding graphics but in the template itself there are no graphics or anything else to apply a tooltip too. Also in the child pages there may be more than one place to use a tooltip. So that suggests to me that I should not add a tooltip to the template. That brings me to the other option.
How would I go about unlocking the <head> tag in the template, without messing everything up?
Or, should I detach any page from the template when I want to add tooltips then reapply the template? I am planning to ditch the GL template anyway and apply a DW template to all the pages anyway.
Any suggestions as to what I should do?
Yours faithfully
Branko
PS I’m using Mac with Snow Leopard.

I found a solution.
I just made a transparent PNG. Put it in an inconspicuous part of the template. On the child page I could make as many copies as I needed making sure I provided id tags for each use etc.

Unlocking head tag in template/procedure unclear to me

Hi,
Still battling since last friday to unlock head tag in template so that i could add an accordion in a template-based doc.
I understand that in the process of creating an accordion DW cs3 has to write something like this in head: <script src= "../Accordion/SpryMenuBar.js" type="text/javascript"></script>..."
That fact i sat editable region in my template into body only make it impossible for it to do the task, hence the error message.
Now i searched in the help doc, i found a procedure "specify editable tag attributes in a template". This procedure didnt show much helpful.
This is the steps i followed:
- opened template and, in split view, i clicked anywhere inside head
- selected head tag
- modify, templates, make attribute editable
Then nothing to select, i went by guess, nothing works and the problem still remain. And my heart still broken...

By default, your template should have an editable region in it just before the closing </head> tag. It looks like this:


Dreamweaver should be able to find that editable region and insert the <script> tag there automatically.
If you don't have an editable region like that in the <head>, open the master template, and paste the code above just before the closing </head> tag.

Add Editable Area to HEAD Tag?

I am working in DW CS 5.5.
My site has a base template and then a nested template for the Work pages.
I'm trying to make the items in the vertical menu bar of the Work page editable attributes. When I select Modify > Template > Make Editable Attribute then set Attribute to class, enter a label name and set type to Text I get this error message:
"There are no editable regions in the HEAD tag to insert the template property tag into. Please add an editable area to the HEAD tag in the base template and try again."
I'm confused because I do have an editable region in the head. What am I doing wrong?

Whoops, I should have included the top code in the base template file:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Editable Head Tags

Greetings,
I've seen a response elsewhere but I can't respond to it so I'm probably adding duplicate info. Anyway, I've acquired a template website that is built in ASP. It doesn't appear that I can edit the head tags: title, description and keywords. I tried placing the following within the head tags but it didn't work, I still can't edit it on the other pages.

<title>Title entered here+</title>


<meta name="Description" content="Description entered here">


<meta name="keywords" content="Keywords entered here." >

I've done this exact same thing for HTML websites and they work fine.

Hi Murry,
Yea, sorry, I meant to say that I AM doing it in the template. Here is the current Head of the template:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Here is what I replaced it with but doesn't seem to work:

In case you can't spot the difference, I added editable regions:

How do I make head section an editable region?

I have a main template with header, spry menu, main content(editable region) and footer.
I create new page from template, but it will not let me edit the head section to add a spry accordian. I need to paste the external link to css for the accordian in the head section, but DW wont let me touch the head section. I tryed to make the "head" an editable region, but that did not work.
Thanks for any insight...

If you are using a recent version of Dreamweaver, there should be an editable section in the head of the document just before the closing head tag. It looks like this:


</head>
Insert the keywords, description, links to external files between the Template comments.
If you're using an older version of Dreamweaver that hasn't created an editable region inside the head, copy and paste the template comments into the master template just before the closing head tag, as shown above.

Editable head tag

Whenever I try to attach a stylesheet, it won't attach. I looked and ever though my head tag says it's editable, it's grayed out.

Where are you attaching the style sheet? Is this on the template page or the HTML page?
Make sure you are adding the css inbetween the editable region for head section as below


</head>

Problem Editing HEAD tag for Facebook Open Graph

In order for pages to play nice with some of the new Facebook features they can add meta tag content to identify the page as a specific "object" in the Facebook Graph.
The problem is they ask you to add some namespace information as an attribute in the head tag and when I try to put anything in the actual tag itself I get an error:
Header must contain <head> and </head> tags.
I'm attempting to make the head tag look something like this:
<head prefix="og: http://ogp.me/ns# fb: http://ogp.me/ns/fb# my_fb_app: http://ogp.me/ns/fb/my_fb_app#">
I have an end tag for head, I just thing the validation fails if you put anything in the head tag itself.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Greg

<tt>prefix</tt> is not an HTML atttribute: it is part of RDF (which I haven't got my head round at all). However I get the same error on apex.oracle.com using
<head class="foo"><tt>class</tt> is one of the HTML global attributes permitted on the <a href="<tt>head</tt> element, so this is definitely a parsing bug in APEX.
Couple of possible workarounds:
<li>In the examples in RDFa spec the <tt>prefix</tt> occurs in the <tt>html</tt> element, which APEX 4.1 will permit.
<li>Add the <tt>prefix</tt> to the <tt>head</tt> element using a Dynamic Action/JavaScript on page load.
You might try these and see whether they are compatible with whatever Facebook is doing.
Please include the following information when posting a question (especially if it might be a bug):
<li>Full APEX version
<li>Full DB/version/edition/host OS
<li>Web server architecture (EPG, OHS or APEX listener/host OS)
<li>Browser(s) and version(s) used

Template: error "Closed a head tag that was left unclosed."

Hello,
I have just found out why an error occurs with one of my template and I thought I'd post the solution for further reference in case someone encounters the same problem—it has bothered me for a quite a while. I'm using Dreamweaver CS4.
Each time I opened the template, I had a message regarding the <head> tag. The message said that some invalid HTML had been corrected and the so-called invalid HTML was apparently "a <head> tag that was left unclosed":
There was no closing <head> tag missing in my template and DW wasn't correcting anything in the code either even it said it did.
My template started with:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">

Head tags in template generated pages, am I doing this right?

http://www.saracenlanding.com/testpage.html
I experienced the dreaded " ... locked by ... " error message when trying to insert keywords in a page generated by a dwt file. I went to the forum and found this information:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/50942#50942
So I enclosed the head in the cut, pasted and edited editable region markup and it seems to work. Then I used the insert html>head tags>keywords to insert some keywords and that worked, but it put the keywords at the very top of the page. As I recall, the meta info is supposed to be inside the head section, so I cut and pasted the keyword markup into the head section, I had isolated with the editible markup and it seems to work.
Not being the sharpest knife in the drawer on these matters, did I do this right? Have I set a trap for myself which will spring later on? Is there a better way? I only know to ask those who know more than I.
Thanks in advance,
Joe

So, as far as setting it up - would I use the cd
included with the Airport box or the existing apps on
my computer?
Use the CD. There is newer software on it.
Does it matter which computer I set up
first? If I do the airport setup utility on the old
mac, will the new mac automatically recognize it when
I turn it on?
Both macs should connect with out a problem. It doesn't matter which you setup first.
The other thing that was running through my head was
that it would actually be nicer to put the Airport
base station in my office (reduce the clutter of
stuff in the living room), but since the old mac
doesn't have a wireless card (and I don't even know
if I can get one anymore), is there some kind of USB
adapter that would work to access the signal? I've
seen a bunch of them, but most of the reviews say
they're not very mac-friendly.
You probably won't find a mac USB adapter becuase there usually aren't mac drivers. You could bring the old computer to the Apple Store and they can install a wireless card in there.

Div header tag - not displaying correctly

I thought I had resolved an issue with a div header tag, but - as per a reply in my 'text as gif' thread, possibly not!
The header contains three images; a logo, a banner (text), and a picture of a castle. These should display in a line.
When I first set it up, I realised that the castle picture was normally ending up below the other two on smaller screens etc.
So I changed the dims for my div container from min 760px/max 1260px, to a set width (960px). I then rejigged the three images so the widths were within 960px, with some to spare for the spacing (total widths of the three are 900: hspacing another 20 pixels). There is no padding/borders defined. Therefore the total should be well within the 960 width (?).
It looks fine on my PC (widescreen); in 3 browsers, using the restore down menu command (ie to make it not full screen), and by using the Dreamweaver multiscreen preview (phone, tablet, smaller desktop). It wasn't ideal (as scrolling required), but at least meant the header (and the rest of the screen) displayed correctly, ie in a horizontal line (and then sidebar - content - sidebar).
If I set my container width much smaller, most of the screen will be green (the body) in big screens.
If I rejig the dimensions, it's all a bit hit and miss (and why don't the current dimensions work?).
Do I need to define the width of the header (as well as the container)?
Help! Thank you
http://hertfordcarnival.org.uk/dev/Index.html

Hi there, I started off using one big image, but it didn't look right with regards to size and placing (ie I wanted the logo on the left edge, the castle on the right edge, etc). When you say slice, what do you mean? One image in from fireworks, and then ... ? Thanks again

Why not just use one big image then you wont have a problem of with the alignment. Certainly don't use 'vspace' and 'hspace' to position the images. If you want to use 3 seperate images start by setting them us as one complete image then slice it into 3 images. Then use the following css to position the images side by side. #header img If the total sum of the width of the images is the same or does not exceed 960px then the images should be in a nice row side by side. They will actually sit side by side without using 'float' but you'll get a small gap between them which will be added to the sum of the width which will exceed 960px causing the third image to drop onto the next line.

Unbalanced Head Tag

Hi
Below is the code for the whole page – I think I have only one head tag, can’t seem to find another. What do you mean about “both bodys”?

Multiple head tags on instance pages

Hi there,
I have a problem whereby pages created from a template are
producing multiple head tags, 3 pairs in fact.
I have used the Check Template Syntax and it is OK.
If I remove the doctype it does not create these duplicate
head areas.
Here is my doctype in the dwt:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN"
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xml:lang="en">
<head>

and here is what is being output in instance pages:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN"
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
xml:lang="en"><head></head><head></head><head></head>
I have searched the forums and the web in general but have
found no help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
kind regards

> Have you ever heard of editable-head-areas being
duplicated?
No. But I have recommended consistently that Nested templates
are too
complex for casual use. Frankly, I have not found a good
scenario that
would compel me to use them at all. I don't encourage that
you use them
either - why are you?

Dreamweaver

Why would you do this? All you need there is the doctitle and
the head
region.

Adding proper heading tags

how do you add proper heading tags

Publish your site from iWeb to a local folder on your desktop and then open the html pages of your site with a text editor such as TextWrangler and look for the <head> tag in the html code of your html pages. You will then be able to change what is in between the head tags and you can then upload your site after this.
This is post publishing editing, so you will have to do the same thing every time you make alterations to your site before you upload it.
You can either do it this way or download iWebSEO, which is a tool that will add both Google analytics and tags for you. You still need to do this every time though, but you can use iWebSEO to upload your site afterwards.
