Center website VERTICAL in Dreamweaver CS4

Hello anyone,
I would like to center my website VERTICALLY in Dreamweaver CS4.
I am new at this and don't understand code language, so please use 'design-view' language if possible.
Thanks!!!

It's not a question of centering vertically in CS4, but doing so reliably in all browsers. Horizontal centering is easy. Vertical centering is not. The following tutorials explain how to do it:

Warning: they're not written in "design view" language. If you want to achieve a reasonable level of proficiency in web design, you need to learn how to use HTML and CSS.

How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?

How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?
I have cs4. I gave up on using MS sql as a datasource. I finally got a php successfull connection in my PHP web page.
I would like a nice video tutorial for creating a dynamic menu.
I guess i can style it by attaching a css file to the page. Are their any already designed css files out there in some online area?
i am not a good designer. so i would like to simply have a collection of menu_style.css files and choose what looks good.
But first i need to build the spry menu from the mysql database.
Any help is apprechiated.
My first choice was to maintain the data in an MS sql server file. If i could directly attach to an ms sql datasource then that would be the best option.
I dont think i want to have to re-generate an XML datasource each time i add or modify the menu. I would like to maintain the MS Sql or mySql file instead.
If i could generate an XML datasource from the MS Sql database then I may even prefere that, but i have spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to do that and not had any success. So i prefere working in MS sql but would settle for mySql if i had to.
Thanks
Jerry

Problem Inserting Flash Video (.flv) File in Page Using Dreamweaver CS4's Insert Media Command

I am using Dreamweaver CS4.
I am attempting to put a Flash Video (.flv) file on a standard HTML page in Dreamweaver.
When I either click the Insert Flash Video in the Common tab on the Dreamweaver toolbar, or if I choose Insert > Media > FLV to inert the video, I get the standard Dreamweaver FLV interface. I make my choices, click OK, and when the video is place on the page, I get the following dialog box:
"While executing inspectSelection in flvProgressive.htm, a JavaScript error occurred."
with an OK button.
If I preview the page, all that loads are the various buttons of the skin that I have chosen and no video.
Anyone have an idea what is going on?

Are you sure you aren't working with a template driven page?
When you insert media files into DW, it must write code in the <head> tags to reference Scripts necessary for Flash media to work on the web.
If you're working with a page that was created from a Template, the DWT page must have editable regions in the <head> tags, or you won't be able to add media to your web pages.

Issues editing Layouts using Dreamweaver CS4 (ShopOnline)

Hi Everyone,
I am having Issues editing Layouts using Dreamweaver CS4 (ShopOnline). May be someone has encounter this problem. When I open the large_product.html in dreamweaver (after installing the extension for BC) the file opens, but when I go to the property inspector, I can not modify any of the css rules currently defined and no css is linked to this file. I looked at all the available css's and I could not find any with the defined rules in this page.
I need help. Thanks.

It must be a module template layout that is being used. If you're on the latest interface it's under
Site Manager > Module Templates > Online Shop Layouts > Individual Product (small or large)
and if you're on the older interface it's
Ecommerce > Products > Advanced Layout customization (under the “related” box at the bottom right)

Getting Website on Search Engines? I used Dreamweaver CS4.

I have a website that was launched recently, which was created with Dreamweaver CS4. After using some search engines, I found that on some of them, some of my pages were appearing on the first page - however, none of them are the home page. Of the pages that do appear, some of them don't even contain the keywords that I typed in to the search engine.
Here's my question: what do I need to do to get my website higher up on search engines?

Website created in Dreamweaver CS4 doesn't look right in CS6

I used to have an old version of Dreamweaver (CS4 I think) and my laptop got taken out by a lightening strike. I have had to purchase Dreamweaver CS6 and I have loaded up my website (files recovered from hard drive) but the pages don't look right - wrong colours, wrong font, text missing, buttons not displayed properly etc. any help gratefully received!

Are you sure site files on your hard drive were not damaged by the electrical surge?
Can you GET replacement files from your remote server?

Getting Data From MySQL Database using Dreamweaver CS4 Built In Functions

Hi,
I am really in need of some help if you don't mind.
I basically have a website with user regsitration system etc and so on.
I basically connected to my Data Base in Dreamweaver CS4 and now want to use the tools in Dremweaver CS4 to display Data from database.
Problem is i see the tools but not really sure how i use them. I see on Data bar all the tools to view, update delete records etc.
I basically created a page where i want to display all the records in the DB. I done this using dynamic data selecting what fields to display etc and 15 records per page.
When i view the page in localhost thou it is only showing 1 record althou i have like 5 users in my test db.
So if anyone can really tell me how i go about displaying data from db that be great. When i learn how to do that i probably will understand and learn how to update records etc.
Thanks

To display all records, you need to apply a repeat region to the paragraph, div, or table row that contains the dynamic text objects for the database results. You might also find it helpful to follow the dynamic application tutorial in the Adobe Developer Connection.

Old Website Mess in Dreamweaver CS4

I'm redesigning my company's website for them, and when I import their Index html into my Dreamweaver CS4, it's a mess, with everything set to the left in a long, list down the page. When I open it in Dreamweaver 8 on the company computers, however, it opens fine... but I'd much rather not work on such an old version of Dreamweaver. I'd also like to be able to incorporate it easily with my other CS4 apps.
Do I need to upgrade the version, or how can I fix these problems?

File not found: import file://localhost/css/title.css: Operation not permitted
File not found: import file://localhost/css/home.css: Operation not permitted
File not found: import file://localhost/css/Nav4IE7.css: Operation not permitted
localhost refers to your local computer the reference probably should simply read css/title.css to make it document relative where css is the directory and title.css the actual stylesheet.
You have no background-color set (or background-color is set to transparent) but you have set a color. Make sure that cascading of colors keeps the text reasonably legible.
If you set a text color, a BG color may be required. Just a friendly warning in case you use red on red or something similar
font-family: You are encouraged to offer a generic family as a last alternative
Well, again, pretty clear. All font definitions should not only point to specific font names liek "Arial", "Helvetica" or "Times New Roman", but also have the generic serif, sans-serif or symbol definitions attached as a fallback measure. After all, text rendering depends on locally installed typefaces and some of them may not be available.
In (x)HTML+CSS, floated elements need to have a width declared. Only elements with an intrinsic width (html, img, input, textarea, select, or object) are not affected
Again, not all too difficult to understand. Elements that use float alignment can have variablke widths if not constrained. This will prevent other page elements from aligning correctly. A common application are sidebars, which for design reasons you always want to have a fixed width, so it is a good idea to define a width for the DIV that holds it, or otehr wise otehr page elements may go over or under it, obscuring information or rendering links unclickable.

How to enter excell formulas into a webpage using Dreamweaver CS4

I am new at dreamweaver and recently purchased CS4 web premium. I also bought some training videos from an Abode affilated training center on dreamweaver CS4. I was wondering how to create or hide formulas into a webpage. I am trying to enter my MS excel calculator into a webpage. Can anyone help me?
thanks
Mike

Unfortunately this will not work directly in DW.
You probably have 2 alternatives and that is, A - use JavaScript (if you are new to DW/webdesign probably not an option). B - See if there is an extension or plug-in for doing something similar.
For pre-built extensions for DW try: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/exchange/index.cfm?event=productHome&exc=3&loc=en_us
An alternative (you would have to copy/paste the code yourself would be one of the following (also check with the Microsoft site as this is (hopefully) something that may have come up before)).

Using DreamWeaver CS4 to create a program?!?!

Hi everyone,
Hopefully someone here can help me out. I was told I could use DreamWeaver to create a program or assemble a program from a .xml file and some resource files. The .xml file looks like instructions that thell the resource files what to do to create a program or a program-like web application. But I have no idea how to use dreamweaver in this mannar. Does anyone have any idea why someone would send me a .xml file and 3 reasource files and say DreamWeaver can put them togther somehow to create a program? Thank you for your time...

Is this the same question as that posted in an earlier thread?

Opinion: If you don't know how to do this basic requirement, then I'd suggestthat you don't open Dreamweaver until you have a basic understanding of HTML and css. If you don't know any html/css then using Dreamweaver is going to be an uphill struggle. Learn some basics and Dreamweaver will be easier to use.
To answer the above, you need to create a navigation bar with the menu items required Home / Services etc.
Highlight the Home button and create a link tot he home.html page (that you should have already created). You link to the page via the Property Inspector. Same for the next nav link. Select the Services Text and via the property inspector navigate to the services.html page (again that you should have already created).
- the second, why is the site not working in the browser Internet Explorer. In firefox it is working very well.
Could be any number of issues. You need to upload the page to your hosting server and provide the link to this page. The answer will be in the code (hence the above opinion about learning html/css :-)

Question about Dreamweaver CS4 Preview in Browser

Good morning,
as a newcomer to Dreamweaver CS4, I find myself in a strange position: I managed to create several pages that work correctly, but whenever I transfer those pages in the server of the company I work for, they show up with a different format for the text parts, and the divs show up as shorter than they should be. And yet, I pretty much copy-and-pasted the original working html pages from my C to the server... why does this problem happen?
Thank you very much.

I can't really say without seeing your code. But some things that may cause issues:
- make sure your code is valid by running it through a validator: http://validator.w3.org/ and fixing any issues noted
- Some older versions of IE have a different way of handeling the box-model concept and this can cause sizing and layout issues. You can read all about it on the internet.
But I would focus on making sure your code is valid - most rendering issues are caused by invalid code like missing closing tags, improperly nested elements, etc.
