Overriding Page Properties

I have been looking for a way to override my page properties in Dreamweaver in order to apply a different color link to some specific text on the page. I followed the instructions on the link listed below and it worked great when I previewed the page in Firefox. Unfortunately, the link I am trying to control is a phone number. The purpose is to allow the viewer to select the phone number when they view the site on an iPhone of Blackberry in order to make the call.
Both iPhone and Blackberry want to still use the page properties and not the override rules.
I've got the site posted at http://www.eccodesign.com/centerstone_management/bent_oaks/index.html
There are two lines of text in the masthead. One reads "welcome to" and the other is the phone number. They are both coded the same but appear differently on both the iPhone and the Blackberry.
Any help would be appreciated.
Desparate in Dallas!

But, both the online version and the handheld version need to come from the same files.
I dont know what that means, but you can have more than one stylesheet attahced to a page, the one for the handhelds would be applied to the phones, the one for the screen would be for monitors. There is plenty of info abound about it.

Custom tab for page propertis- basic in sidekick

Anybody knows how to customize the page properties tab in sidekick based on the template..

See example under /libs/foundation/components/page. In this case you have to create a template that will extend /libs/foundation/components/page in resourceType section this template is pointing to. Your main component will have dialog that will override page properties. For example something like this
<items jcr:primaryType="cq:WidgetCollection">
<tabs jcr:primaryType="cq:TabPanel">
<items jcr:primaryType="cq:WidgetCollection">
<advanced jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" path="/libs/foundation/components/page/basePage/tab_advanced.infinity.json" xtype="cqinclude"/>
<basic jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" path="/libs/foundation/components/page/basePage/tab_basic.infinity.json" xtype="cqinclude"/>
<bgimage jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" allowUpload="false" cropParameter="./bgmage/imageCrop" fileNameParameter="./bgimage/fileName"fileReferenceParameter="./bgimage/fileReference" mapParameter="./bgimage/imageMap" name="./bgimage/file" requestSuffix="/bgimage.img.png"rotateParameter="./bgimage/imageRotate" title="Background image" uploadText="Drag and drop images from DAM" uploadUrl="/tmp/upload/*"xtype="html5smartimage"/>
<blueprint jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" path="/libs/foundation/components/page/tab_blueprint.infinity.json" xtype="cqinclude"/>
<cloudservices jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" path="/libs/foundation/components/page/tab_cloudservices.infinity.json" xtype="cqinclude"/>
<image jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" path="/libs/foundation/components/page/tab_image.infinity.json" xtype="cqinclude"/>
<livecopy jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" path="/libs/foundation/components/page/tab_livecopy.infinity.json" xtype="cqinclude"/>
<YOURTABNAME jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" title="SOMETHING" xtype="panel">
<items jcr:primaryType="cq:WidgetCollection">
<rtetext jcr:primaryType="cq:Widget" fieldLabel="test" height="100" name="./test" xtype="richtext">
<rtePlugins jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured">
<format jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"/>
<links jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"/>
<justify jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"/>
<lists jcr:primaryType="nt:unstructured"/>
</rtePlugins>
</rtetext>
</items>
</YOURTABNAME>
</items>
</tabs>
</items>
</dialog>
You can also extend individual tabs based on your need.

Page Properties and Text Rollovers

I have been trying to create simple text rollovers for my
page and have ran into a confusing problem. In Page Properties, I
used the link feature to make a word in green text turn orange when
the mouse rolls over it. This works fine. However, what if I want
another piece of text on the same page to have a
different text rollover? Is there an option to override the
Page Property setting (without using flash text?) Because now
whenever I create a link, it automatically turns the word green
with an orange rollover!
My page is not uploaded to the net yet, but please help me!
This is driving me
insane!

You need to take some time to learn how to control links.
Read this, it
goes on to cover how to create multiple instances of
different colored
links.

Link color change (beyond page properties/links or inline html mark-up)

Besides using the page properties to change all links on the page to a single color, is there a css style or some html code I can add sitewide (vs. inline mark-up for every single link) to override the blue link color and keep all links the color specified in the header and body styles?
Thanks!

Thanks bemdesign--it worked for the most part. But in my footer, the links are incorrectly changing their colors when displayed in IE. When displayed in the design view of DW, they are retaining their proper color without changing blue when I make them links.
Just before the text of the bottom row of my table, I added in the html code:
<div class="footer">
After the text, I closed it with
</div>
In my CSS, I added this code:
.footer a:link {
color: #666666;/*links under the elements with a class of footer are gray*/
.footer a:visited{
color: #666666;/*visted links are gray*/
.footer a:hover, .footer a:active{
color: #666666;/*active or hovered lover links are gray*/
While this caused the color of the link in my html in DW to be retained as gray, in IE, it displays as blue. Why is this?

How do you allow access to Page Properties for a page via Permissions.

I've been trying to figure out how to setup permissions for a user or group to allow them to have access to the Page Properties dialog and view it's contents.
So far the user/group in question has read/modify/create/delete access to the entire /content/<site_name>. These people can right click on a page in Websites and select the Page Properties option but some of the page properties, custom ones, are empty, or showing but their respective content (housed under /content/<site_name>/<page_name> is missing/empty.

The location of the folder is important. If it is inside a subfolder of your Home folder, then nobody else will be able to see it no matter what sharing options you set.
Put it in the /Users/Shared folder.
As leroydouglas pointed to, go to the Sharing preferences and add that folder.
You'll also need to give them a login to that Mac. You can create a "Sharing Only" user which is a login for file sharing users.
In Users & Groups, Add a new User account and set it to Sharing Only.
Give it a username and password for them all to use (which can be saved in their keychains).
Go back to Sharing and Add that new Sharing Only user. Give them Read Only access. If they all have normal logins on that Mac, you can just add those user names and they will log in just as if they were sitting at the Mac.
Marking of a folder as Shared will only share it with users that can log into that Mac and only if they have permission to see through all the intervening folders.
EDIT: You could also set up Guest access and allow guests to access file sharing. You could then share the folder to everyone: read only.
Also see here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14189
You used to be able to create a Sharing Only user from that preference pane, but it appears they've modified that to allow you to create a Sharing only user from your Contacts list.

How to create a new tag in page properties in the sidekick of geometrrix page

how to create a new tag in page properties in the sidekick of geometrrix pagesame as basic, advanced, blue print??

Hi prachi,
Is it tag OR Tab ? Seems like you are looking for Tab. Look at [1] & overlay to custamize per your need. Or define at your page component.

How do you make the font of a link different to the link font in Page Properties?

In my case, I've designated links as Century Gothic, 16, black in Page Properties. I want most of the links on my page to be like that. However, there is one link that I'd like to look different (I want it to be size 12). How would I change that without changing the other links?

Hi Bob,
If the link change is only going to be happening on a single page, you might
want to take a look at using an internal style sheet or using a inline style to
achieve the look you seek.
Below is a link to perhaps help you to understand the use of css.

"Page Properties" grayed out in Acrobat Professional XI

I create PDF fact sheets and newsletters from Adobe InDesign CS 6. I am using Acrobat Professional XI. I am tasked with making these PDFs accessible to assistive reading technology.
I carefully set up tags and reading order in InDesign, but in order to import that structure into the PDF, I need to access Page Properties in the Options menu of Page Thumbnails. But Page Properties is grayed out. It is not accessible to me.
I checked to be sure the Acrobat Accessibility plug-in is loaded. It is not loaded.
Need to know how to
Enable Page Properties in Acrobat Pro 11.0.9
Load the Accessibility.api plug-in

Answer is to select all pages in the Pages thumbnail. Got it from an Adobe video on accessible PDFs from InDesign Preparing Accessible PDFs with Adobe InDesign CS5.5: Part II | Accessibility @ Adobe | Adobe TV

A question about page properties

I am new to dreamweaver going through tutorial.
In the book it tells me to modify page properties. The pop up window on my computer shows up differently than in the book. see attachment of screen shot from my computer
In the book it is different.
1. Category - Appearance has controls for typography, that is not on mine
2 Category also shows access to Links and Headings between Appearance and Title/Encoding
I am working in dreamweaver 8 but have also opened up dreamweaver CS3 and it comes up the same way.
I use a Macbook Pro OS X.4.11.
Help !

I'm wondering if somehow toggling the HTML/CSS preferences might get your dialog box to match the one you see in the book. See this Help page for more info, make the switch, and then open the dialog box again to see if that works.

Page Properties- Background Color Change

Can anyone help me here? I know how basic the subject sounds
but for some reason it does cause me trouble here today.
We recently had a company design our site and now we are
using contribute to edit pages etc. Now, we have admin access so
that isnt an issue. But when we want to start a BRAND NEW PAGE
outside of any templates, we cannot change the background color. It
is greyed out when you go to Format- Page Properties- Appearance.
Its frustrating. It should be as easy as changing it, but no can
do. Any thoughts?

It's good then that you have adminstrator rights, because the
solutiojn is in the role settings. You will have to edit the role
settings to your needs.
In the menu pick Edit, Administer websites, Choose your
website.
Choose Users and roles, Edit role settings
Choose Styles and fonts
I think you'll find all the options you need here, check the
ones you want and of you go again!
grtz.

DW CS3 Page Properties problem - I don't have font, repeat options

I have been following some online tutorials and they are also in CS3, DW but my page properties layout and options are different within the program.
Is there something that needs updating/ downloading turning on in an advanced option? I have looked over the web and can find others with the same problem but not a solution.
Hope you can help.
The link below at the bottom of the page on the left has a thumb nail of the properties page which matches mine, note no repeat, font and other options are missing compared to others and I imagine yours.

thanks

I had the same problem although it was a previous update rather than this one that caused the problem. Just hadn't got round to doing something about it - was using Bing images instead.
I searched for some answers this morning and seemed like most suggestions were a nuisance to try. Couldn't find 'Preferences button of HTTPS-Everywhere' as suggested above. Decided to check if No Script was blocking it. Sure enough. So problem is solved.
Thought I'd put it out there in case it helps someone else. Appreciate that people are so helpful on here.

Page properties don't show in IE or Firefox

Hi Guys, I'm very new to this so sorry if I come across as a
bit of a numpty..
I have built a site, and uploaded it to the net via my ftp
server. I went back to dreamweaver to change a few of the page
properties such as link colours and background images. I have done
this using the page properties button at the bottom of the design
view. All properties look as I want them in DW's design view. I
have not attached any CSS style sheets to the site (don't know how
to do this yet).
now when I 'put' the updated pages to the server, everything
goes fine, but when I view the site online neither IE or firefox
displays the style changes I have made. I know the old pages have
been overwritten by the new ones as if I make changes that are not
stuyle related (eg add an extra word to a block of text) this shows
in the browser as having been updated.
Why aren't my page properties being updated? any body know?
http://www.evoffshore.com/Elmo%20Cam/Index.htm
this page has a grid background, which should appear throughout the
whole site, but doesn't. There is also the default blue link border
around the blue page header (top frame) though in DW I have set the
link colour of that page to be white.
Any help would be HUGELY appreciated!!
Thanks!
Beth

PS. when I view the site in firefox some of the table
proportions are squiffy, any way I can stop this happening?
Cheers!

If you would like your NON-linked images to have a border, and only remove the border from linked images then this css:
a img { border:none; }

Page Properties Panel and CSS

In the Property Inspector I open the Page Properties dialog
box and expect to see within the category list : Appearance, Links,
Headings, Title/Encoding, and Tracing Image. All I see is
Appearance. Titel/Encoding and Tracing Image. Under Appearance
again I would expect to be able to select a page font, and it
attributes but it starts right off with background image and its
attrbute. Any ideas why the font info is missing?

Can you try again, please?
