Putting a coloured border on the entire site

I know this is going to sound very stupid, but does anyone
know how to put a coloured border on a site? I have the main table
of text in the middle, with about a 2" border either side of it and
al I want is to be able to change it to blue. If you can help,
please make instructions simple to follow as I 'm not very
technical and find all this stuff hard work.
Thanks in anticipation.
Robert

How did you create the border you have there now?
can you provide a link to your page (by uploading the page to
your remote
server)?
difficult to give advice until we can see what you have tried
so far.

Is there a way for me to block a page within a website without blocking the entire site?

I want to block some kids from my son's Facebook profile, if I block them using FB he will just unblock them. I've tried altering the hosts file but it doesn't work unless I block FB entirely. Is there a way to block pages from a site without blocking the entire site?

Not sure but try this:
-> Go to your son's page on Facebook
* Right-click empty space within the page and click '''View Page Info'''
* In the '''Page Info''' window, select the '''Permissions''' panel and change the setting to '''Block''' for all options
* Close the Page Info window -> Restart Firefox
Check and tell if its working.

IWeb wants to upload the entire site

I'm using iWeb with UK2.net to host my site. The problem I'm having is this; iWeb will take six hours to upload the site to uk2.net, and it seems to fine online but after the upload I get an error message telling me something went wrong. All the side bar icons remain red. So that means I have reload the entire site any time I want to add an update. It seems to want to upload the main hosting folder by over-righting it and that is why it takers so long. Has anyone else experienced this problem and has anyone any suggestion how to fix this?

The iWeb FTP does upload the whole folder of files created by the application although it shouldn't take 6 hours !
The alternative is to publish to local folder and upload using an FTP application. This way you can see the files on the server too to make sure they are all being uploaded and to the correct place...

An alternative to uploading the whole folder is to upload the contents...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/URLs-Favicons.html
The fact that you are getting an error message and the pages remain red in iWeb means the all the files aren't getting uploaded or the application is not creating the assets.http file correctly. Try the troubleshooting steps under "Fix iWeb" on this page...

How can I put a colored border around the whole page?

I just want to know how to pur a colored border around the whole page?

Hi Rachel,
Here's an example. Instructions follow the image:
Start with a new, Blank word processing document.
Insert a rectangle shape (the darker green is the default colour)
Change the colour to your desired border colour, using the Fill Color well in the format bar.
Set the Stroke to none, using the first popup menu on the Format bar. (I missed this step in the example, leaving the black line seen at the rigth edge of the pages.)
Drag the handles to resize to shape to cover the whole page.
Go to the View menu and choose Show Layout to see thae area that text will occupy.
Insert a second rectangle shape on the page.
Set its Fill colour to whatever bckground colour you want in the text area,
Set the Stroke to none.
Resize the second shape to fit just outside the text area indicated on the Layout.
Select both shapes, then go Arrange > Group.
Go Arrange > Move Object to Background.
Go Format > Advanced > Move Object to Section Master.
If either of:
Go Arrange > Make Background Objects Selectable
Go Format > Advanced > Make Maste Objects Selectable
have checkmarks beside them,
Select that item to uncheck it.
The frame will now appear on every page in the section.
Regards,
Barry

Cloaking the entire site's URL in address bar

Should be a simple one for ya. Purchased a .com domain, and once it went online I noticed that instead of just www.habittheharley.com showing in the address bar, it shows the indivual page names, some of which look untidy. I remember back in the day when I used to get CJB to just cloak my entire site to example.cjb.net, it was a fairly simple tickbox option i recall.
How do I get it to somehow cloak the entire website URLs to be just habittheharley.com, instead of habittheharley.com/contact or habittheharley.com/photoblog? My domain/hosting provider had no idea when I rang them (netfirms)
Thanks!

That would be a good enough reason to tell this host goodbye in my opinion. How can they help you with something important if they can't answer this simple one.
There would be two ways to do what you want -
Use frames. The only URL that appears in the address bar is the URL of the frameset page. This 'solution' would be like shooting yourself in the foot, but it is one way to solve the problem
Use .htaccess or mod-rewrite (*nix, and Windows, respectively) to rewrite your URLs to whatever you want.
There's actually a third way - don't worry about it at all. Surely there are more important fish for you to fry?

How to make 1 spry menu for the entire site? but not on each page

i have a website that i wish to have multiple pages available all form the same menu and late and probably at regular intervals add more tabs to the menu
is there a way to create a spry menu speratley that the page some how references, something like a frameset but without using framesets?
im sort of new to webdesigning and unsure of the correct terminology, so i am finding it difficult to look up stuff that i don't know the name for, but will gladly go read someting if you point me in the right direction.
regards
for now

You can do this with PHP or ColdFusion
These are "server side" scripting languages so you will have to test your website after you upload to you web hosting account.
Or if you set up a local server. Without the local server you will get errors when you open them in firefox.
To use the following what you do is "Cut" the part you want to be on all pages out, "Paste" it into a seperate document and in its place on your page you put one of the following suitable tags.
You will also have to rename your main file to .php or .cfm as opposed to .html
Again, whatever page you put one of these tags on, their extention must change match the type of tag used.
First Method (PHP):
PHP is the more common method -
<?php @ require_once ("yourMenu.html"); ?>
Require_once is basically a safeguard so that you don't add the menu twice onto a page.
This will only work for PHP 4+
This method would work for older versions of php too -
<?php @ include("yourMenu.html"); ?>
Second Method (ColdFusion):
This will only work if your host has ColdFusion installled -
<cfinclude template="bla.html">
eg index.html
<html>
<head>
<title>Stuff</title>
<head>
<body>
<?php @ require_once("SpryMenu.html"); ?>
</body>
</html>
SpryMenu.html
<ul id="menubar1" class="MenuBarHorizontal">
    <li><a class="MenuBarItemSubmenu" href="#">Item 1</a>
        <ul>
            <li><a href="#">Item 1.1</a></li>
</ul>

Centering the entire site

I've decided to venture out and learn CSS, but I've a long way to go.
I've watched many videos and read up on "how to's" as well as key benifits of CSS.
So I've decided to start with a css template in DW and work backwards rather that open notebook and start typing.
The template I've chosen seems to open (F12) in left screen mode. I like all my sites "centered."
I used to just add this line and all was well <div align="center"> but that doesn't seem to work with my new CSS template design.
Can centering be accomplished as easily with CSS?

You need only three things to center a web page.
1) A valid document type. Good new is that DW does this for you when you open a new document.
2) A declared container width in pixels, ems or percentages.
3) A margin-left and margin-right value of "auto."
NOTE: container position should be set to default (which is no positioning at all). The exception to this rule is if you plan on using Absolutely Positioned divisions (APDivs) inside your container (not usually recommended). If you're using APDivs, you will need to set your container position to "relative" or the page won't center.
#container {
width: 900px; /**or whatever you wish**/
margin: 0 auto; /**centers in modern browsers**/
text-align: center; /**centers in old browser**/
position:relative /**exception - if APDivs are used**/

I am trying to edit a pre built webpage but cannot seem to find the file to open in dream weaver although I have downloaded the entire site from the remote server to my computor

Does anyone know how to access an adobe pre built web page template to modify some of the content.

Hi Bobby,
Yes, it is by design. By default, Windows Server only accepts two concurrent administrative sessions (Administrative Mode). It means that only two administrators can work on the server at
the same time.
If you would like more concurrent sessions, you need to purchase RDS CALs, install Terminal Services related server roles with proper configurations on the server.

Audio mixing in FCP: anyway to put a peak limiter on the entire mix?

I know how to apply audio filters and effects to individual audio tracks, but maybe I'm missing something obvious.
I come from a music production background, typically, we will have effects on the individual tracks, but then there will also be some effects on the stereo mix (master bus), such as a mastering limiter or peak limiter.
I haven't seen anyway to do something like this within FCP.
I have FCS, I have SoundTrack Pro, but I haven't used it yet - is this something you need to do with SoundTrack?

Thanks! Even though I've got nested sequences in my project, it didn't dawn on me to take the whole final timeline, and nest it all one more time, in order to get down to two tracks of audio and video. You're absolutely right, you can apply effects to the whole audio mix, then.
Of course, after spending the day playing with Sound Track, I'm seeing the possibilities there, it's a much more well-developed application for editing and tweaking the audio mix, more and better effects, but there is sort of a "disconnect" going on when you have to be going back and forth between the two applications.

Can I publish one page at a time to the ftp when publishing entire site?

I am currently using iweb to manage my website and i changed a number of pages and require to re-publish the entire site. When i go to do this it attempts to bundle all the files together and publish, but the site only allows for 8 connections via ftp. Is there a way that when i publish the entire site that i can publish one page at a time?
Thanks for your help!

Publish your site to a local folder...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Publish-Website.html
... and upload the files using an FTP application...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Upload.html
That way you can upload individual files and folders - one at a time.

How do I put an outline border around a table i.e. without internal borders being displayed?

Hi
I'd appreciate some help with putting a border around a table
as I'm sure
I'm not doing this the best way!
I selected my table then chose a thin (size 2) border and
desired colour.
The problem is this has put a border around every cell in the
table.
Trying to remove the internal borders has been very
frustrating!
Just be clear, when I say "remove the internal borders" I
don't want to
merge cells I just want to stop the borders displaying.
So...
Is there a quick way to simply put an outline border around
the table?
What is the best method for removing internal borders?
Having got so used to the ease of formatting tables in MS
Word this is a bit
of a hair puller!!
Thanks for your time.
Happy New Year!!
Ian

Don't use the property inspector to add the border - you will
need to use
css...

Applying a new template to entire site?

Is there an easy way to apply a new template to the entire
site? I created a new template and I can open each page
individually and click MODIFY/TEMPLATES/APPLY TEMPLATE TO PAGE but
there has to be an easier way to apply the new template to the
entire site without having to open every single page in the
site.

That would be true ONLY on pages that are already child pages
of templates.
Try it on a page that is not a child page, but that has
existing content.
This is what the OP was asking.

Can't "get" entire site

Hello,
I'm trying to get my entire site using DW 5.5 so that I can work on it locally, but lots of the file are being left behind. I follow the instructions to do so, click yes when prompted if I want to get the entire site and the process begins. It then stops, saying that it's complete, but most of the data is missing. It manages to get about 350mb but the total size of the site is nearly 4gb.
Any advice much appreciated.
Cheers in advance,
Matt.

Why don't you just access the site by ftp and get the files...........I never use Dreamweaver for putting or getiing anything.....it's useless in that regards.
Geez just read 4gb.... what is it a hi-res image/video library? I would definitely either use ftp or maybe go into the sites control panel and make a back up of the site files and download them from there. Most control panels send you a link to a download zip file once the server has backed up the files.

Acces rules not blocking entire site

Hello we are trying to block all url acces to rapidshare (and megaupload, gigasize , etc)
we are using the syntax
http://*rapidshare*/*.* and used also http://*rapidhsare*
then when i type for example
RapidShare: 1-Click Webhosting
i am allowed to get the file
only typing http://*rapidshare*.*/*/*/*.* i'm allowed to block it but i don't know the structure of all the sites, i would like to block the entire site with some generic syntax like "*domain*" for entire site.
How i should block the entire site of rapidshare then?
Thankyou for your replies !

That's because the site address is different. This would be the
address to put in:
http://ssl.rapidshare.com:443/*
The HTTPS setting is as follows:
http://SiteAddress:443/*
So in otherwords drop the "s" from https, enter the site address and
add ":443/*" to the end.
