Pages to iweb

Hi,
I am wondering if it is possible to export pages created files and put them on to my website using iweb whilst still maintaing the pages format?
Thanks

Welcomw Lin
Rather than use iweb to let someone view your
document (newsletter), I tried exporting it, then
emailing it as an attachment, but my pictures did not
show up on my newsletter. Do you have any idea why?
Did the images show up in the exported newsletter before you emailed them? Or did they only not appear in the newsletter after you emailed them?
I tried both pdf and html, neither had my pictures.
I'd be extremely surprised that a PDF file did not contain the images that were in the original document. Can you double-check this?
Though I did find out later, that the html has 2
files you have to send (email ).
The file size is under 7kb.
HTML files do not include images. They only contain text which points or links to the separate image files. So I'm not surprised the images did not appear correctly after you'd emailed the HTML document but left the image files 'behind'.
You will find that the Pages document when exported to HTML is broken up into at least one text file and some image files, possibly saved into a folder. All of these files/folders need to be placed in the same folder for the HTML file to be viewed as expected.
In any case, you should not waste your time creating a Pages document and exporting it to a HTML format. It will not look like the original Pages document and you will only be disappointed by the result. Instead, use a purpose built HTML editor like iWeb to create web pages.
If you do not specifically want to create a HTML document then PDF is the better format. It preserves your formatting and images so that they look the same as the Pages document. They only negative is they can't be edited.

How can I get a song to play automatically on a web page ? iWeb 1.1.2

Can I get a song to play automatically when my web page opens? iWeb 1.1.2

As long as you don't mind doing a little post publish editing of your .js files, it's fairly easy to do. You will find them in this path on your iDisk, using the Go menu in Finder:
Go/iDisk/MyiDisk/Sites/iWeb/Nameofsitefolder/Page_filesFolder/Page.js
Open the .js files for that particular page on your iDisk with any text editor (I like Taco, and it's free) and make the following changes to the script code that controls your movie: (you will find the movie code near the top of the page in the .js file)
Change autoplay="false" to autoplay="true"
Change loop="false" to loop="true"
Changing controller value="true" to controller value="false" will remove the controller from the page entirely. Make these changes in both sets of tags, (object and embed).
Make the changes and just "Save". Clear your browser cache and you should see the changes take effect immediately. Bear in mind you will have to make this modification each time you republish your site. You can also save this modified .js file and replace the republished file with it, as long as no other changes were made to the page in iWeb.

Is there a way to password protect a photo page in iWeb?

My website is open to whoever wants to look at it but I do photography work for clients and would like to password protect their photos. Is there anyway I can password protect just my photo gallery page in iWeb? Thanks!

If you publish to a server other than MobileMe you can password protect any directory - either by using Webshell or via the .htaccess. If you use the latter method, the data can be compiled using a generator....
http://tools.dynamicdrive.com/password/
MobileMe users need to create a new site for the protected content. This site can appear to be part of the main one if it is included in a text based navigation as an external hyperlink or by using a snippet code with the default navigation. This was answered by Cyclosaurus in this topic....

I updated to os x 10.8.5 today and now I cannot publish changes to my web page through iweb. iweb crashes every time I try to publish

First do the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
Next, in Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or Mountain Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file in your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder that you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

How to redirect a page on iweb

Hi I have an online store @ cafepress that I built with them..Is there a way to create a page on Iweb that visitors click (the tab) and are then taken to that specific page or is there a way to embed that page into an iweb page....any help would be appreciated.

You can make an external link for taking visitors on that page or you can embed that page in yours through an iframe but that doesn't work very well so I wouldn't recommend you to do that.

Adding pages to iWeb

when adding page to iweb, how do i move the name of the new page off of the top of the home page? looking to have it on the bottom of the page.. thanks!

Are you referring to the navbar at the top which are links to each page in the site? If so then you'll have to deactivate (not include) the navbar on each of the pages in the Inspector/Page/Page pane:
Click to view full size
and create your own Text Based Navbar which you can position anywhere. However, there is a drawback to having the navbar at the bottom: if the page is longer than the browser's window a visitor would have to scroll down the page to get to the navbar in order to go to a new page. That's not good web page design.
However, if the pages are long then having a navbar at the top and bottom is wise.

How do I create sub-pages in iWeb?

Hi, How do I create sub-pages in iweb like it does in this website
http://www.e-alliance.ch/index.php?id=405
with all the main menus "about us", "advocacy capacity", etc?
Thank you for your help!!!
Boaz

To create sub pages, just ensure that the main menu item is in the main menu and then for the sub pages themselves, ensure that they are NOT in the main menu and you link back by creating links instead.
For example, you could use Staff as a main menu item, so Staff would be in the main menu and then descriptions of different staff members would be underneath, but not in the main menu - they would have separate links that you create and then hyperlink.
If you want to make drop down menus in iWeb, as in the site that you linked to, you can't do this directly in iWeb itself. You have to make it and then upload various css files to your web host and link to it in iWeb etc. It is quite a complex task to create drop down menus in iWeb. If you want to do that, then I would suggest that you use a different app instead - take a look at http://www.everwebapp.com.

Aperture web gallery - how to link back to main page from iWeb?

Okay, this may be simple, but I can't figure it out.
I created and uploaded a few web pages with iWeb to my dot.Mac account (web.mac.com/f8lee50) just to get a feel for things. I then created a web gallery with Aperture and uploaded it - naturally Aperture generated a URL for the gallery, which I set up as a link on my "Photos from Hawaii" page (the link is the word 'this' in the second paragraph, if you wawnt to look).
Okay, so this gets me from the "photos from Hawaii" page to the gallery, and within the gallery I can jump to the various images etc. But how does one navigate back to the "Photos from Hawaii" page from whence they came? Is there some sort of smart link that can be inserted (by Aperture?) that will send the viewer back to the main homepage? Or are the Aperture galleries essentially dead ends?

Richard, thanks for responding - I'll check that tutorial.
And thank you for the kind words, me100finn. I have not played with any variables as far as layout on the gallery (I did a bunch of stuff with the books, but the web gallery seems far less flexible) so I cannot answer your wuestion about the gray shadows.
Steve, thank you for the additional clarification (and the hint about spaces in URLs) - I guess what this all boils down to is that the web galleries from Aperture are not all that useful when they are meant to be a part of a bigger overall site. I'm not sure of what you meant when you say they have little forward or backward navigation in them - at least you can click on a thumbnail to get to an image, click next or previous or the grid to get back to the thumbnail galery. But, 'twould seem that hand coding HTML pages (the very thing I was hoping to avoid) is the only way to really integrate them. Given that, I gues the better approach will be just to use iWeb to load the images anyway.
Well, folks, thank you all for your answers. Until I do a re-do, I guess the back button is the way to go (which, for the record, I did sorta figure out myself

Problem publishing Photo page with iWeb 08

Hello,
I have a problem when publishing photo pages with iWeb 08. Upload starts and then I get the error message that iWeb encountered a problem while publishing. The funny thing is that I can see
the photo page in Safari. The only problem is that when starting the slide show I can not see the
forward/backward buttons. Publishing a photo page with iWeb from a .me web photo gallery works without any error message, but still when starting the slideshow the navigation buttons are not displayed. Actually if you click on the place where the navigation buttons are supposed to be,
you can go picture forward/backward. Any idea ?

I am having the same issue, except I do not get any error messages when publishing to a folder. Clicking on the "index" file within the folder will open the photo page in both Safari and Firefox. Everything functions as designed except no forward/backward/pause buttons are visible below the slideshow. There are text box outlines with a question mark where these buttons are supposed to be located, and I can pause, advance or reverse slides. Eventually these question mark outlines disappear and stay disappeared.
The end result is there are no intuitive graphic indicators on the slide show to even suggest to the viewer that he/she has some control over the presentation. I don't believe I can add explanatory text boxes to the slide show to compensate for the missing icons. This lack of visible control elements in the slide show is a huge issue. I am reasonable sure the problem does not reside within my computer. I've also reviewed inspector control options for a photo page/slide show and haven't gotten any combination of check boxes to make a difference.
I'm beginning to think this may be an unexpected conflict that was contained within a recent software update. It might well be worth a close look at programming code by Apple technicians. In the meantime, can anyone offer a clue as to what might be going on?

Creating sub-pages in iWeb'09?

Hello!
i've just starte using iWeb, and trying to create my own web page. I can't find a solution on the above: how can i create "sub-pages"? For example: I want to create a main page called Photos (appearing in main menu bar), and UNDER this page i want to create "sub-pages" called photos1, photos2, photos3, etc. (appearing UNDER Photos page).
How can I do this?
Thanks,
Bazsi21

Hello:
I just read your post regarding creating web pages in iweb. This is something i have been trying to do also. Do you happen to know whether there's a way of creating sub pages from the main navigation menu, rather than pasting hyperlinks into the page. If i create an envertainment magazine, and one section is "movies", then I want all articles on movies to fall within that category, WOuld be far easier if visitors click on 'movies' link in navigation bar, and then see the list of articles. Is there a way to do this in iweb?
If not, i am wondering why Apple didn't include this basic necessity when creating the program.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks.

Links within pages in iWeb

Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but I can't figure out how to create hyperlinks within a page in iWeb. Specifically, I'm trying to write a FAQ, and want to link individual questions listed at the top of the page with their answers further down in the page. Help???

Those are called anchors and not supported by iWeb. Put in a feature request to Apple via http://www.apple.com/feedback/iweb.html.
It can be done with HTML snippets and javascript as Cyclosaurus mentions here: http://widgets.cyclosaurus.com/Anchors/Anchorsfiles/widget0markup.html. But one must be proficient with javascript.
There's a crude workaround with snippets that Peter Berglund describes in his blog: http://web.me.com/petber/iWebtips/iWeb_Tips/Entries/2009/2/22_How_to_use_Anchors_iniWeb.html. This Contents page uses that method for some of it's links - those that are green.
Alternate solutions are with using rollovers like shown in this demo page: Show and Hide Text or using Fancy Zoom shown in the right hand example in this page: FancyZoom You could replace the photo with an image that says Click for Answer" or whatever and have the answer in a jpg file. Both are somewhat low tech solutions.

Linking pages in iweb

Ok, I'm new to iWeb-- I am trying to build a simple web page for my mother. She has a small catering business. I need to be able to make multiple pages and be able to link to them, but I don't want a million links in my above header (which is the only place I know of to get links)
So.
I want to be able to make a page for each category...and have a 'gallery' to be on the header that goes on the top...and then on that gallery page, be able to click on each of the categories. (so I want the clicking to be on the page... not the top)
Is this possible? Does this make sense?

You can certainly do what you describe.
In iWeb you can make any object a hyperlink.
In your scenario make a page called Gallery. Then make a text box (or line of text) with the names of each of your categories.
Then create a page in iWeb for each of your categories.
Then make each name of each category a hyperlink as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iWeb/3.0/en/23561.html and point the hyperlink at the pages you created.

Can there be an Home/Index page that has links to sub pages in iWeb?

How do you set up a Home page with links to other Photo web pages?
iWeb does a super job creating individual pages full of photos.
But if I want to have a "Directory" page that kicks off the whole site, how do I do that in iWeb?
I want to break up my photo pages into groups like:
Portraiture, Still Life, Life Style etc.

Thanks Will.
Most of my site is created in iWeb. I have been messing around with a iCalendar PHP also, to create a nice calendar for the site.
The Home page is a couple of programs used together.
1. I drew sketches of the little main street.
2. recreated the main Street in a GREAT program called SketchUp. it is the most User Friendly 3D program around and their Website has super tutorials to get you up and running in no time - seriously. Then exported it out to Photoshop as a flattened jpg. (I also did this for the individual buildings for my Banners)
3. In Photoshop, I painted my buildings and gave them some personality.
4. I originally had an Image Map that I created in ImageReady as my Home page, but that doesn't work for iWeb, so I had to use Flash.
5. I made a Flash Movie creating my Buttons and Links and Rollovers (Here you have to Plan some, cause you need to what pages you will have at the end and know the URL to the final pages iWeb produces. It is something like ..sitefolder/sitename/Home.html.
6. Then, I published it as a Quicktime Movie from Flash. You have to Publish as Flash 5 compatible in order to get a quicktime movie. Also, I set up my movie to loop, no controller, and auto play in Flash.
7. Put it on my Home page. (The controller shows up in iWeb, but not in the final Published Site. (I also do not have to manually change the HTML to autoplay "true" and controller "false" on this particular page. I do have to on others though.)
Thanks again Will, for your kind words - I have been working very hard on this site.
Also, don't forget to go to Suzanne's Site 11mystics.com for a lot of information and iWeb tips, tricks, and related links.
