New to web development.

I'm an avid graphic designer and I have a strong knowledge of Illustrator, InDesign and Photoshop. I am now wanting to jump into web design, but I'm not sure where to start. What do I need to know about Dreamweaver and web development? What are some good resources? And is there anything I may have missed?

Forget everything you learned in print design.  Designing pages for the web is an entirely different discipline.
Before you even open Dreamweaver, learn coding fundamentals first.  This is required learning. Without a good grasp of the fundaments, DW will be a very steep learning curve.

  • New web development java technologies

    hi friends
    get me an area/problem in web development were we can use new java technologies.

    Are you asking for problem domains to try out the latest and greatest Java technologies, or are you asking us to give you new business ideas?

  • New to J2EE and web development in java

    Hi folks,
    I have been developing desktop app in C# for the past two years. But now I am taking my masters and I am learning in Java. I am also interested in J2EE and wanted to develop web apps in Java. The problem is, I am very much confused with the tools, classes and etc Java uses. For example people say to me, you have to know Struts, Spring, JSP, Ant, Tomcat, Apache Tomcat, Hibernate, and etc. I tried to search every one of those and got some clue but not that much detail and now I am really confused.
    Before I go to coding (which is my interest), I wanted to know what tools to know and why and how they are used, at least the basics. Once I get some idea, I will keep on searching by myself. Can any body please tell me or give me a link of what tools I have to start with as a begineer web developer? Can any body give me a brief description about them?I downloaded Eclipse and I am almost familier on how to use it and I also write some code on it. These days, I downloaded J2EE, Struts, and Hibernate but I dont know how to use them and where to use them. No clue. Help me guys.
    Thank you.

    Step 1 : Download "Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers". You don't need anything else in terms of tools at the start.
    Step 2 : Get solid experience in basic Java development. Make sure you are very comfortable with the language and core API classes such as I/O, collections, etc. Do this in a basic Java project in Eclipse.
    Step 3 : Learn JSP and Servlets. These two technologies are the foundation of Java EE web app development. Use "Dynamic Web Project" in Eclipse and Tomcat as your server. For a good exercise, build a web app to manage a catalog of something by reading/writing to a text file local to the server.
    Step 4 : Learn JPA. This is the standard for modern Java database access. Make sure you learn JPA standard rather than a specific implementation like Hibernate. In fact, since you are asking on an Oracle site, I would recommend EclipseLink implementation of JPA rather than Hibernate. For an exercise take your app from Step 3 and make it use a database instead of a file. Use MySQL as your database.
    By the time you get this far you will have a good foundational knowledge of Java EE web development. Where you go from here will depend on your interests. If you are more interested in the web tier, you can learn some of the higher-level front-end technologies such as JSF or Struts that make it easier to build very large apps. If your interests are more in middle tier and scalability, start learning EJBs. Don't bother learning Ant or Maven unless your interests are specifically in build systems and release engineering. You don't need to know Ant/Maven to build/run/export Java EE applications in Eclipse.
    Good luck!

  • New Web Developer Tools interfere with my add-on

    I use the add-on Menu Editor & have hidden the History & certain Tools. To access Menu Editor I simply press ctrl + shift + S Today however, a weird subscreen appeared at bottom of my browser. I figured out that under Tools there is an option for Web Developer (Debugger) that requires the same combination of keys to open. Now I cannot open Menu Editor at all. I tried to run in Safe Mode and could not get it to run in Safe Mode. I cannot access my add-ons at all because that is one button I have hidden.
    How do I fix this? I don't care about Web Developer, don't know how to use it & most likely never will. I just want things to go back to the way they were before everyone starting messing around with firefox.

    You might be able to switch one of them using the keyconfig extension from here: http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=72994
    (Not helpful to you, but the NoScript extension also uses Ctrl+Shift +s and somehow it overrides the built-in debugger shortcut.)

  • Not able to connect VS Web Developer Express through instant client 10

    I just spent 10 hours attempting to connect Web Developer Express 2010 to an Oracle 10g database. In the end the solution was beyond simple, but with the existing threads there is a lot of talking around the problem. I’m posting this in case it might help someone else.
    Obtain the Oracle instant client software that will work for your database. You will only need the basic package.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/instant-client/index-100365.html
    Extract the contents to a temp location on your hard disk
    Create a directory for the application – it could be anything, but here is what I used
    C:\instantclient
    Copy the extracted files into the directory you just created.
    Right click on my computer and choose properties
    Under advanced and environment variables you will need to add the directory you created above to the system variables PATH. You will need to create a new system variable called TNS_ADMIN and put the same c:\instantclient path in it.
    Create the file tnsnames.ora under the c:\instantclient directory and put your customized entry in it. Below is an example.
    tnsnams.ora file contents
    <Alias for this tnsnames entry> =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <Your Oracle Server>)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = <Your database instance>)
    It’s a good idea to restart your system after this installation.
    In web developer express use the .NET Framework Data Provider for OLE DB.
    Here is the key piece of information!!
    Under server name you need to use the alias from the tnsnames.ora file entry. If you do not do this it will not pick up the SERVICE_NAME parm and will give you some goofy error like:
    ORA-12514: TNS:listener could not resolve SERVICE_NAME given in connect descriptor
    or
    ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

  • Listbox control in Visual Web Developer not working correctly

    Not sure where to post this issue.  I am developing a web app using Visual Web developer. I have created an .aspx page where I have placed a listbox control on the page and populate it when the page loads.  When I select an item from the list the
    listindex value is always -1.  I can never get the index for the other values.  I've used the following code,but get the same results:
    For i = 0 To ListBox1.Items.Count - 1
        If ListBox1.Items(i).Selected = True Then
            val= ListBox1.Items(i).Value 
        End If
    Next
    val=nothing, listindex is -1 when i check
    Any idea how to get around this issue?

  • Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and Oracle ODAC - Oracle data provider

    system - xp pro
    Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and Oracle ODAC112021.
    I can't seem to get the ODAC to work correctly with the Web Developer Express. When putting in a gridview I only see the standard adapters. The one from Oracle does not appear. I have spent days trying to figure out why but no luck. No one else seems to have this problem. I do not see any errors when I installed the ODAC. I've followed a few tutorials.
    http://weblogs.asp.net/nannettethacker/archive/2010/09/17/installing-oracle-data-access-components-odac.aspx
    and
    http://www.smart-soft-nz.com/oracle-and-asp-dot-net.html
    I tried using the Windows adapters but they just don't seem to work. I can get results in the query builder but when I go to the next step in the wizard I get the constraints error. I've done all the research on that with no luck so I wanted to use the ODAC. This killing me! This really shouldn't be that hard. I've added the dll to the references but again it's just not an option. If anyone could give me a little direction that would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Thank you

    Dear Friends,
    Installing SP1 and updates to it solved the first issue. So the database now seems to be of type 2008 R2.
    Deleting some files solved the second issue.
    However, another issue remains.
    My most important projects were created with a version of VWDX 2010 that was downloaded from Microsoft and installed on July 3, 2012. This version of VWDX has now been lost, because my hard drive recently ceased to function and had to be replaced.
    On the new hard drive I have a version of VWDX 2010 that was downloaded yesterday (May 28, 2014). As indicated above, I also installed SP1 and related updates.
    When I load a project that was created in the version of VWDX 2010 that was installed almost two years ago and try to open the database connection, I get, in essence, the following error message:
    "The database C:\Users\...\Database.mdf cannot be opened, because it is version 661. This server supports version 655 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported."
    So it seems that the original database version was 661, whereas the version downloaded yesterday is 655. It seems very strange that a version downloaded now should be earlier than a version downloaded two years ago. Does anyone have an explanation or a solution?
    Thank you all for your trouble, and best regards.
    Eric (orexin)
    P.S. The site from which I obtained VWDX yesterday was:
    www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010-editions/visual-web-developer-express and the executive was called VWD2010SP1AzurePack.exe.

  • Publish using iWeb 09 using any WebDAV compliant web development software

    Our School is looking at moving to the Mac Platform. We currently use Frontpage to publish our website. Our current web host says that we can use "any WebDAV compliant web development software to publish our site. Is there a way to do this using iWeb 09?

    Inigo wrote:
    ...is it simply a case of dragging a QT movie file into iWeb 09, publish it via FTP, and hey presto, people can view my films in high quality on the web? Is it really that simple or is there a catch?
    George ~ Yes, there's a catch. Your videos will become part of iWeb's Domain file which may make it slow to open in iWeb, make backups and re-publish everything (if needed). Better to upload your videos separately to your server and embed them into your iWeb site.
    iWeb '09 makes this easy if you upload your videos to YouTube: iWeb '09 has a new YouTube widget to embed your videos into your iWeb page:
    http://www.apple.com/ilife/iweb/#widgets
    ...For high definition video, YouTube was recently ranked the best of several video sites:
    Which HD video Web service is the best?

    YouTube officially enables HQ in embedded videos
    Also, I may want to show some videos encoded with Flash, not QT. Is that still possible using iWeb 09?
    If you're concerned that some PC users won't have QT and won't want to install it, I think if you go the embedded YouTube route, almost all PC or Mac users will be able to view your videos — because "videos on YouTube are streamed through an Adobe Flash player."
    If you'd prefer to use Flash in iWeb, this article may help:
