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?

  • To add meta tags, you open your published .html pages with TextEdit or any other text editor and modify as required. You have to do redo it each time you republish. Ihow do I do this? I need step by step instructions

    To add meta tags, you open your published .html pages with TextEdit or any other text editor and modify as required. You have to do redo it each time you republish. I need step by step instructions on how to accomplish this  please .

    Rage Sitemap Automator and iWeb SEO Tool are two different applications.
    Use SEO Tool to add the title tag and meta description. These need to be added to the html file for every page of your website. SEO Tool stores all these so that when you republish you only need to add tags to any new pages and click the re-apply button to refresh the existing ones.
    Once you have added. refreshe the tags with iWeb SEO Tool and uploaded the files with your FTP application, then open the site in Sitemap Automator and create and upload a new sitemap.
    Once you have set up accounts with Google, Yahoo and Bing, verified your site with each and submitted a sitemap, on subsequent publishing Sitemap Automator will resubmit the sitemap with one button click. It will also notify Ask.com whch doesn't require an account since you can add your domain name to this URL to ping them...

  • I started setting up a web page with iWeb. Auto play box is checked, but music will not play when page is opened.

    I started setting up a web page with IWeb.
    Several proplems so far:
    1) Auto Play box checked for music, but music does not start when page is opened.
    2) Can't get Quicktime "start/stop" slide to start and finish a section within a long piece of music (classical for example).  How does one work the slide bar to do this?

    Yes the audio file plays on the iWeb page when I click the play button.  I even made sure it played both without the “little boxes” that surround the icon (don’t know the technical name for those), and when I click the music icon without the little boxes.
    I did note that the iTunes window that appears when I open the Inspector is not highlighted until I click the music icon and those little boxes appear.  Then the Start/Stop, Auto Play,  Loop, and Show Movie Controller are highlighted —  and work properly.
    One other thing.  I see that the iWeb icon I am working from says “Domain copy.sites2.”  Does that have a bearing on anything?

  • How do I get my gallery photo pages in iweb to publish on my site ?

    HI
    I have recently upgraded to iweb 09 from iweb o6. I have also upgraded from tiger to snow leopard and now have a terabite size hard drive. Iweb was working great before , but now i cannot get my website to upload correctly using ftp fetch. fetch is not the problem as i tried another ftp and had the same problem. My pages that have gallery photos on them will not show. my website is www.naomigrant.com the pages not responding are paintings sold and paintings for sale page. I have uploaded correctly , published correctly and everything looks like it has worked. But when i go to my site the images are not on those two pages. Images are showing in other pages. when i test it in iweb and it says you can visit your site , everything looks good there and you can see the images. So i am totally at a loss as to what to do. I have spent 3 days trying to fix this so far. Can anyone please help me? Should I reinstall i web?

    There is no point in re-installing iWeb, because after you have published it really is not an iWeb problem - if there is something not working on uploading the files, then it is really nothing to do with iWeb after html pages have been created.
    If you are using Fetch to upload, then you have obviously published your site to a local folder? If so, are the photos there when you look at your local site? If they are there when you publish to a local site, then it is an error in uploading and if photos do not show, it means that some things are not being uploaded to your server correctly.
    Have you tried using Cyberduck instead of Fetch? Cyberduck or Transmit are two of the better ftp programmes to try.

  • Publishing Third Party Generated Pages with iWeb to .Mac

    I'm considering using KavaTunes to publish my iTunes library. Looks like a great app. But, I'm a little confused. I'm using iWeb to publish my site to .Mac now. How do I use KavaTunes with iWeb. I can use iWeb to publish to a folder. But, Apple doesn't give instructions for how to publish out to an iWeb created site on .Mac using FTP.
    I find this to be an issue with any third party app that generates web pages with images, etc. How do I get those loaded up to my .Mac site generated with iWeb?
    Thanks,
    Brian

    dotMac doesn't use FTP.
    You create your 3rd party pages and copy them to iDisk>Web>Sites folder.
    Put them in a folder of their own. In iWeb create a link to these pages.
    KavaTunes no doubt has a Help file that tells you how to publish pages. Start learning to use the program and stay away from iWeb for a while. No need to double the problems.
    BTW, you need PHP on the server side. dotMac has no PHP.

  • How do I create photo page with blow up images?

    I need some help trying to create a web page of photo thumbnails with blow-up larger images:
    1) I want to create a contact sheet type of web page of multiple photo thumbnails.
    2) When you click the photo it opens into a small window or "blow-up" version of the thumbnail. (Clicking the thumbnail does NOT take you to a new page with the full size image).
    3) The blow-up photo has a circle and X that will close the blow-up window.
    I've already figured out how create pages of thumbnails that will take you to a new page with the full size image. I'm trying to create the effect where you never leave the main page, the thumbnails just blow-up into small windows that can be closed again.
    Apple uses this effect a lot with photos and movie clips on their page. An example of what I am trying to do can be found on the iLife/iPhoto/MobileMe Gallery info page.
    http://www.apple.com/ilife/iphoto/#mobilemegallery
    If you look to the right just under the main large banner images, there is a grey box titled "iPhoto Showcase." If you click one of the thumbnails there, the picture blows out to a larger size of the image, but doesn't take you to another page. The blow-up image has a little circle and X at the top left to close the window. Main page is still visible behind the blow-up window.
    I think this post mentions what I'm trying to do, but they seem to be having problems getting it to work. I need help creating this effect from scratch.

    I'm using a fairly new MacBook with OS 10.5, iPhoto and iWeb '08. I also have Aperture 2.0. I don't have a .Mac or MobileMe account yet. I'm a recent convert from the Darkside, so right now I use google's Picasa Web Albums and google's website creator for my site. If I can get this to work, I'll make the switch MobileMe once the early .Mac conversion kinks get worked out.

    That's the effect that I'm looking for. I've read through the instructions on Cabel's website (thanks for the great links!) But I'm afraid I'm still a bit of a novice with website creation and editing. I liked your iWeb examples, so I have a few follow-up questions about how to integrate this with iWeb.
    1) Do you use iWeb and .Mac/MobileMe to publish your site? I already own a domain and have been using google's online page creator tools to create some very basic pages. For picture pages, I just put up links to my Picasa web albums. But the google user interface and options (no FTP upload) are even more limited than iWeb and .Mac. With 20GB of storage, plus the other features and ability for integration, MobileMe sounds enticing for the price.
    2) At what point do you add the code to the pages in the edit and publish process? What are the exact steps you use to publish? (Create and edit in iWeb, add html code, publish to folder or publish straight to .Mac/MobileMe, etc.)
    3) If you make changes to pages in iWeb, do you have to keep adding the code to the pages and repeat the steps from above question?
    4) What app do you use to edit the html code? No html edit function in iWeb, so I tried opening the "page.html" files in TextEdit but the page just looked like a web page. No code. How do I get the text of the html code to open in TextEdit or another app?
    5) Do the lines of code (2 lines in "head" and 1 line in "body") need to be added to every page that I want to use the effect?
    6) How do you upload the two FancyZoom folders to a .Mac/MobileMe account site? And where exactly do they need to be placed?

  • 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....

  • Photo Page with lots of pix - any way to jump to the last page?

    I have a photo album with 112 pix in it, and it's set to display 21 photos per page w/ 3 columns. This makes for a total of 6 pages.
    The way the page navigation shows up, at least in Safari, is as follows:
    < 1 2 3 4 >
    Oddly, in iWeb it shows:
    < 1 2 3 4 5>
    I continually am adding photos to this album, but I think that people may not realize that there are more than 4 pages. The only clue is that the right arrow is not grayed out, which is too subtle.
    If you click on the "4", and then click the right arrow, it now displays 1-5 like in iWeb. Clicking on it one more time then displays 2-6.
    If all of the pages can't be displayed for space reasons, some indication of how many pages total would be helpful, and/or a "last" link to jump to the last page.
    On this discussions site, for example, doing a search with multiple pages of results brings up the following:
    Pages: 12 *| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 | Next |*
    This makes it obvious how much content there is, and how far you have to go to get to the end. Is there any way to get something similar on an iWeb page? I think people are missing my latest additions because they don't know they're there, and there's no easy way to get to the newest stuff.
    Thanks!

    I couldn't get the other "jump to the last page" script to work at all; it winds up screwing up the display to where it shows two pages at a time slightly offset from one another.
    It's more likely that you web host servers take time to serve the page and its element, I ran into similar problem while helping out another person in this forum.
    But, while I'm finally seeing the page count directly above the page navigation numbers, it's indicating that there are 7 pages when in fact there are 8, and I'm wondering why it disappears after changing to any other page (it doesn't reappear even on the first page without doing a refresh). I've tried this with the same results in Safari 3.1.2 & Firefox 3.01.
    My bad, all these computing have concept of zero , I messed up with that
    I also found that the bottom paginate navigation cause problem, so I added more code to handle that.
    The result may not be desired but cause the page count flashed when you go from one page to the next, quite annoying. Give this a try:
    <script type='text/javascript'>
    var headerControlsWidget;
    var footerControlsWidget;
    function setPageCount() {
    try {
    headerControlsWidget = parent.document.getElementsByClassName('com-apple-iweb-widget-headercontrols')[ 0].widget;
    if (headerControlsWidget) {
    footerControlsWidget = parent.document.getElementsByClassName('com-apple-iweb-widget-footercontrols')[ 0].widget;
    entriesPerPage = headerControlsWidget.preferences.entriesPerPage;
    entriesCount = headerControlsWidget.preferences.entryCount;
    pageCount = parseInt(entriesCount/entriesPerPage) + 1; // adjust to true count, if needed;
    newDiv = parent.document.createElement('div');
    newDiv.id = 'pageCount';
    newDiv.innerHTML = 'Pages: ' + pageCount;
    if (!(parent.document.getElementById('pageCount'))) {
    paginateDiv = parent.document.getElementById(headerControlsWidget.instanceID + '-pagination_controls')
    paginateDiv.insertBefore(newDiv, paginateDiv.firstChild);
    } catch(e) {}
    function initPageCount() {
    setPageCount();
    headerControlsWidget = parent.document.getElementsByClassName('com-apple-iweb-widget-headercontrols')[ 0].widget;
    paginateDiv = parent.document.getElementById(headerControlsWidget.instanceID + '-pagination_controls')
    paginateDiv.addEventListener('click', function() {setTimeout('setPageCount()', 250);});
    footerControlsWidget = parent.document.getElementsByClassName('com-apple-iweb-widget-footercontrols')[ 0].widget;
    paginateDiv = parent.document.getElementById(footerControlsWidget.instanceID + '-pagination_controls')
    paginateDiv.addEventListener('click', function() {setTimeout('setPageCount()', 250);});
    clearInterval(chkHdrCntl);
    chkHdrCntl = setInterval('initPageCount()', 500);
    </script>

  • Photo Page with widened page size

    I recently enlarged the size of my web pages using the inspector so that the layout is more landscape (like a monitor) than portrait. When editing a photo page to fit the wider area (1240 pixels wide) it lays out fine in iWeb, however when I publish it to the web all the pictures only stay within the 700 pixels area and then things overlap and get screwy from there. Also note that I am NOT using a dot mac account. Here is an example of the problem:
    http://bobbydg.net/BOBBYDG.NET/Amnesia.html
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanx.

    No, I tried reloading the page, that wasn't it. Can you send me the link to your page where you did it. Did you see my page? Again it looks perfect in iWeb and once you click on a pic and get into the viewer it is full screen.

  • Can't publish my blog with iweb

    I have a .mac account and prepared my first ever webpage, a blog and a photopage on the same site. Everything was more than easy, but then I couldn't publish it. The response says: Publisher Error : An error occurred while publishing file “/Web/Sites/iWeb/mylife/Blog”. I tried File/Publish All to .mac and got the same reply. I put it also to a folder (File/Publish to a folder) but I don't know what to do with it from there.
    I have no idea what I'm doing wrong, or what I could try, help!

    I got it fixed, thanks to help from another post. I had created my own nav bar and the links were to .Mac not .Me. What finally fixed it for me was:
    1. Publishing all to Mobile Me.
    2. Fixing my links so they linked to the .me pages.
    All comments work as expected.
    If others are using a CNAME this would add a new dimension to the problem. My personal domain is simply Domain Forwarding so it seems to be O.K
    What a mess!

  • Publishing photo's to iweb - without mobileme can it still be done? Does iweb still exist? Help

    I have bought the latest version of iPhoto but still can't seem to publish my photo page. I'm sure this is an old question that's been answered time and time again but I can't seem to find anything on this that gives a clear answer.
    Thanks

    iWeb exists but is not suported or developed anymore.
    You can still build a Photos or Albums page in iWeb and publish it...

    You would need to sign up for hosting...

    Now i want to make a web page with a link to that movie using iweb.
    So in other words i design the simple page on i web and than upload it to

    852x480? on the templates the movies are to small?

    How did you fit a 1.5GB file into 300MB's of space?
    What viewer is going to wait two or three hours (weeks on dial-up) to view a 3 minute file?
    Your best solution is to link to file and let your viewers download it. Just use the complete URL as your link.

  • Problem publishing photos from iPhoto to Facebook

    I just recently updated to ios5 and can no longer publish photos from iPhoto to Facebook.  The "publish" button is grayed out.  Anyone else had this problem??  Any solutions?

    I have the same problem...just happened because I have never had problems until today.  I finally ended up going to my profile, clicked on Photos on the left side of the page and then I selected Make a New Album.  It brought up a list of choices where I wanted to get pictures from...like Desktop, or iPhoto, so I selected iPhoto and the pics came up and I scrolled down to the pics I had just recently uploaded to iPhoto and a new album was created on my profile and on the home page. 
    I liked being able to send them directly from iPhoto to FB but at least this way I can get them on FB.

  • Is there are a way to delay the display of a page with iweb 08?

    I have a page with a lot of content (SportsOutreachOnline.com -> Sports). The page takes a little while to load and look very unprofessional while doing it. It loads each piece and displays it piece of the website one at a time. I would like it to load like 70-90% of the way before displaying any content.
    In other words, I would like the page to load most of the way before displaying itself. Is this possible to do with iweb 08?

    I'm sorry, but I guess I don't really understand your answer. I added an HTML snipet which made an invisible frame in the page and i typed in.
    "<script type="text/javascript">
    parent.document.body.style.visibility = "hidden";
    fucntion showBody()
    parent.document.body.style.visibility = "visible";
    setTimeout("showBody()", 5000);
    </script>"
    I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I just don't know what.
