Newbie having trouble with opt/rep regions

Hi everyone. I'm migrating my site from simple, square html
to nice, elegant css. I've done most of the work, but I'm having
some trouble with templates. Here's an example of how a page
created with a template will (hopefully) look:
http://www.technfun.com/temp/example.html
I've succeeded in making the article region (inside the white
frame) editable, but I can't figure out how to handle the side bar
menu. It's supposed to contain links to the chapters and
subchapters of the main article, so that clicking there will bring
you to the right place in the page (a simple # link, in other
words). However, the article writer (me) needs to be able to add as
many "SidebarLarge" entries as necessary. Under each of those there
may or may not be the need to add "SidebarSmall" entries for
subchapters.
I read the help file and figured out I need to do something
with the optional and repeating region settings, but whenever I try
I only ever manage to make a mess of the sidebar. Anyone can tell
me how exactly I'm supposed to do this?
Thanks :)

Why not just make the whole sidebar an editable region
instead? Then you
can add as much stuff as you see fit.

  • Newbie having trouble with template highlight (button)

    Stupid question I'm sure, but for the life of me I can't figure it out:
    When using a template, if I change anything at all about the TYPE related to a button, or the size of the button/text group, the corresponding HIGHLIGHT gets freaky. I can't for the life of me figure out how to control where that highlight appears, or even it's size, etc. So I have these beautiful DVD menus that are marred by weird highlight bars--some of them run across two buttons.
    (Yes, I figured out how to make the highlights invisible, but that defeats the whole point of course.)
    Hope my question wasn't confusing. Any help would be wildly appreciated. Thanks...

    Okay, let me pose a theory: Is it possible my installation is having trouble, in other words is what I'm seeing NOT normal?
    Can anyone verify (it would only take a few minutes) my findings? Here are the steps: Create a brand-new project using (just to make sure we're on the same page) the Apple template called "Wedding Classical Index." Next, resize any one of the main elements (labeled "button 1," etc.). OR, change the text to two words, or modify the text size/font. When finished, hit the Simulate button and mouse over the button you modified.
    Does the highlight look normal, e.g., underneath the text, etc., or has it moved to the side of the text, or changed into a vertical line, or worse?
    I just want to verify that my installation isn't being screwy. Thanks to the kind soul who takes a minute to help me out with this so I can move on...

  • Newbie having trouble with searching for apps.

    I'm an experienced an experienced Windows user, finding myself surprisingly lost on my new iPad and iTunes.
    (Surpising because, although I'm used to dealing with oddball and sometimes frustrating things on Windows,  I had heard the Mac and iPad interface fast simpler to navigate and more frustration free.)
    So please excuse what may seem like dumb newbie questions about what should be, and probably are to you experienced iTunes and iPad users, simple things:
    For starters:
    I'm search for a few apps in the app store that I know for sure exist and know the exact names:
    One is the
    iPad User Guide
    The other is
    the AOPA flight planner app.
    I know it exists because it's installed on my wife's iPad. Can't remember how I found it on her iPad.
    When I use the apps store search box (whether I do it in the app store in the iPad or in iTunes on my Windows 7 computer)
    I keep failing to find them.
    I've tried putting
                           iPad user guide
                            AOPA flight planner
      or even just                AOPA
    in the search box in both environments and clicking the search (magnifying glass) icon.
    I either get a mess of apps with  AOPA in the name (but not the one I want)
    or a message saying the equivalent of "sorry... not found." 
    What the heck am I doing wrong?
    All help appreciated.
    Alex

    You are not doing anything wrong. Those apps just do not appear to be available any more.
    They will always be available to your wife since she downloaded them and they are backed up in her iTunes Library (assuming she synced it with iTunes since downloading them) but it would appear that anyone else trying to find them will be unsuccessful.
    These are not dumb questions nor are they trivial concerns. The whole digital distribution method has many advantages, but you just ran into one of its drawbacks.
    "Ownership" of software was always a controversial subject, but the way things are going the argument will soon be a moot point... unfortunately.

  • Newbie having trouble with keyframes

    I'm a newbie to Flash, and have just started going through
    the online tutorial here:
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/intro_flash_pt2_04.html
    This is the problem I'm having: In the section "Creating a
    frame-by-frame animation", when I have created the symbols, and
    want to edit them, the Properties Inspector shows that the images
    are bitmaps, not movie clips. Why is this? Shouldn't they have
    become movie clips when I created the symbols, renamed them, and
    saved them as movie clips? Is there something I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance for your assistance.
    Text
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/intro_flash_pt2_04.html

    Did you have the bitmaps selected and chose "Modify - Convert
    to Symbol" (F8) when you "created the symbols"?
    Or did you select "Insert - New Symbol" (Ctrl-F8)? This would
    of course have created empty movieClips and left your bitmaps
    untouched.

  • Brand-newbie having trouble with "paste into"

    I am teaching myself InDesign using tutorials and just tried to use the "paste into" function unsuccessfully.  I have a document with a picture of a dog (a black silhouette) and a picture of a polkadot pattern.  I selected and then cut the pattern one, selected the dog, and went to try "paste into" but the option was not available.  I rewatched the tutorial and it's exactly what was shown (there was a picture with a pattern that was then pasted into a black airplane photo).  Any idea why I wasn't able to do it?  Thanks.

    This is the video tutorial I watched, if anyone has a minute to check out the part I'm trying to replicate.  It is at 7:40.  I guess I need to know how the instructor got the "picture" of the plane there in the first place so I can do the same with my dog silhouette.  I downloaded an image of a dog and did Command D to drop it in.  Forgive me if I'm using the wrong terminology...

  • Newbie Having Trouble with MaxDate

    First let me say that I am pretty new to writing code, so I apologize if I don't use the correct terminology. Now to my issue. I'm trying to write a query that will return several date fields. The problem is that there can be several instances for each primary key, so I want to see the Max Date of each instance. I've googled and googled, but I don't seem to be finding the right answer. Additionally, I have a couple of fields in particular that raise an issue. I have instances where a primary key is showing up multiple times because the Template field can have multiple entries. I can't seem to figure out how to write the code that only pulls in the Template value of A in the event an A and C are present.
    Output
    P_Key Template Template_Removed_Date
    1 A
    1 C 10/23/11
    2 C 08/15/11
    2 C 04/12/10
    2 C 12/05/09
    Desired Output
    P_Key Template Template_Removed_Date
    1 A
    2 C 08/15/11
    Any assistance you can offer would be greatly appreciated!!
    Also, if there is any online training that would be of assistance to my cultivation in PL/SQL, please let me know.
    Cheers!

    This doesn't have anything to do with Oracle Designer. You should ask this in the SQL forum.
    Anyway, your design is wrong:
    The problem is that there can be several instances for each primary keyThat is NOT possible. A primary key is a unique value. It is impossible, if you create the PK properly, to have more than one instance. So, you probably mean something else, but ask this in the SQL forum.

  • Newbie having trouble with iCloud

    Hello-
    I was at the Verizon Store today for 3 hours trying to learn the basic of the iPhone 5. There is a lot for me to learn, but one day at a time. For some reason I was able to use my iTune sign-in info for an App that required it and I can sign into apple.com/support and apple.com to get to the forums, but when I try to sign into icloud it keeps telling me that "Verify Your Account" This apple IDs email address cannot be verified. Change your Apple ID's email address at appleid.apple.com to sign in to iCloud."
    If I change my iCloud email address will this mess up me being able to sign into iTunes and the other places I use my Apple ID?
    Is the Apple ID the same as the iCloud sign-in information? It says under iCloud. Apple ID and Password. I have tried it literally 30 times and it still will not sign me in.
    should I change my Apple ID or does anybody know what the hang-up could be? Occasionally I have had an issue signing in to apple.com/support where it has said you cannot use an email address, but I click sign in again and it signs me in. I have had the same apple ID and password for years with no issues really until I got this iPhone and tried to sign into iCloud.

    I never had this problem.  I went to the apple support page for setting up icloud and it said to use the same info you use to sign into itunes.  I realized that one had my email address as minus the @gmail.com and one had it added at the end. I just added it to the one that did not have it, clicked slect and agreed to the terms and I got an email saying Welcome to the icloud.  then i used what I had already put in the iPhone 30 times and this time it accepted it.  therre were so many people at the Verizon store trying to figure this out.
    It asked me now if I want my contacts and all to go the the Cloud? I selected Yes, was that the right thing to do?
    So what does this allow me to do now because it obviously did not affect me getting into iTunes or the App Store like the support article said it should.  the article said it is BEST to have the same Apple ID for iTunes, Icloud, etc.
    It is now saying 5 GB Free and under that payment information.  Does sending the stuff I clicked Yes to cost?

  • Newbie having trouble with M-Audio Interface

    I'm probably overlooking something obvious, but I cannot get my M-Audio FireWire 1814 to be recognized by my Mac, I've reinstalled the software multiple times and still it tells me that there is no device. (I've been careful not to hot-plug the FireWire connection). Here's my setup: IMac, (running OS X.4.8), Logic Express, M-Audio FireWire 1814, and Korg Trition Studio. I'd appreciate any help.
    -Crog
    IMac   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    i don't think that is what the org poster meant. i think they were meaning that he hasn't blown his firewire connection, and that he is letting the m-audio driver load at startup.
    i don't think that it had anything to do with m-audio being hot plugable.

  • Newbie- having troubles with background color when opening new document

    Hey everyone and thanks for the help in advance. New to the forums and haven't been able to find the answer online. Whenever I open Photoshop (using Adobe Creative Cloud) I set my size, my background to white, etc. The document always opens looking like this: http://screencast.com/t/BzCYc4akl

  • I am having trouble with a form, won't tab to 2nd page...

    I am having trouble with a form I created in Acrobat Pro 10. I created tabs etc, they all work wonderfully in Adobe, but once I uploaded it onto the web-based program for other users, the tabs only work  on page 1, I have to click on page 2 to keep tabbing through.  It won't tab into it.  Any advise?  Also, when the users open it it opens in the web.

    1. The library is separate from the application, so re-installing shouldn't cause an issue with the actual photos. But it would be foolhardy in the extreme to do anything without first backing up.
    2. Often these issues are caused by a damaged Library, so reinstalling doesn't change much.
    FWIW
    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.
    Alternative approach:
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • I am having trouble with iPhoto-it won't launch.

    am having trouble with iPhoto-it won't launch and leaves a blank white screen box and spinning wheel of death-if I re-install software-will I lose all photos and faces settings? Any ideas-this is a Mac Pro and Xserve school system.
    It seemed to stem from when I was transferring some movie footage from an HD camcorder to iMovie.
    This is a school system and I'm worried I may lose many photos and face recognition data.

    Hey so I'm having trouble changing my country/region on my iphone 5 every time it go through settings Apple ID and try change the country it's just blank ? Any ideas ?

    Hello Natethemate,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with changing the country for the iTunes Store on your iPhone.  For this issue, I recommend signing out and back into the iTunes Store on your iPhone:
    Sign in with a different Apple ID
    Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores.
    Tap your Apple ID.
    If you see the option to Sign In, you can change your Apple ID now.
    Tap Sign Out.
    Enter your Apple ID and Password and tap Sign In.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1311
    If the issue persists after signing out and back in, I recommend quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the iTunes Store app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
    How to restart
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button on the top of your device until the red slider appears. Then drag the slider to turn your device completely off.
    After the device turns off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button again until you see the Apple logo.
    How to reset
    You should reset your device as a last resort and only if you can't restart it.
    To reset, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo.
