Question about css referenced images with spry
Using the Dreamweaver templae downloads design #1 and design #2, I pasted the spry assets and images from design #2 (accordion) into my website which is a copy of design #1. In addition to the accordion images, This gives me the SpryAccordion.css and SpryAccordion.js which reference the accordion images as ../accordion_255_tab_normal.gif, etc., but in Dreamweaver designer and at runtime the accordion images to not appear. Can someone please advise me where my issue might be?
Thanks,
Jay
Hi Jay,
accordions? You could have a look about the possibilities of (translated from my German DW) Insert > jQuery UI. And for example these out of providers great number:

aso (Google could be your friend).

P.S.
Naturally you can remain at "good old" Spry, but some of the modern hardware will get their difficulties, so my hint is a preventative one. BUT in this case you really should load up your website, no matter how it looks like.

I was having a hard time making my BG image show up on browser.
It was a .png file located in the image folder. My paths were correct, but the image didn't load. In a fit of frustration, I put the image in the same folder as the CSS file and modified the path accordingly.
No more problem!
Why did that happen?Let's see the page in question.

Hi I have a question about shooting in Raw with my Canon EOS 6d.
I'm in the process of learning photography and my goal was to start shooting in raw.
I have Photoshop CS5. When I tried to edit my images in raw I received an error message stating, "The photoshop camera raw plug-in did not recognize the format. If these files are from a camera, you may need to update your camera raw plug in."
In researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6. My version of CS5 is 6.0.0.205. Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost. THANKS in advance!
HeatherIn researching the issue I read that to edit in raw you need a camera model requirement of at least 7.3 which only works with CS6.
That is correct. Your camera was first supported by Camera Raw 7.3. Camera Raw 7.3 will not work with CS5. You need CS6 or CC.
Being new to all this I see that my options are to upgrade to CS6 or convert by using DNG converter and paying a monthly fee. Two things I know nothing about and don't know which is would be more beneficial.
I'd appreciate any advise on which route to go and how upgrade and what it may cost.
It all depends on your preferred workflow and your budget.
Using the DNG converter is free. There is no monthly fee. You use the converter to convert all Raw files from the EOS 6D to DNGs then edit the DNGs in CS5. That's an extra step every time - every photo. Some people don't like the extra step. Others don't mind.
Camera raw, DNG | Adobe Photoshop CC
Or you can upgrade to CS6 (non-Cloud) and pay the upgrade fee
Creative Suite 6
Or join the Cloud and pay the monthly fee
Or join the Photoshop Photography Program (US9.99/month) and get PS CC+LR -
Question about changing ID3 images
Hey everyone. I recently changed my podcast artwork. I use Powerpress, so changing the MAIN artwork was quite easy. So for this question, I am referencing only the individual art that is displayed with each individual episode.
I know that for iTunes to recognize a change in episode artwork, that it cannot have the same name as the previous. The new artwork embedded does have a new name but is it the artwork that needs a different name, or the entire mp3 that needs a new name? Once artwork becomes embedded as ID3 I'm not sure if it loses its name altogether. So I need to know specifically what needs a new name for iTunes to update my episode art? Pic name or mp3 name?
Thanks for your time!Thanks for the response Roger.
So just to be clear, I have changed the images embedded in my MP3s. I then re-uploaded them to Libsyn using the replace function. So I now have MP3s with the exact same name as before, but with a new image embedded. Are you saying iTunes will see the image change in each episode even though the name of my MP3 is exactly the same?
So far, iTunes has immediately updated my main podcast image but all my individual episodes still have the old image.
You can probably see what I'm talking about by searching iTunes for Netflix Junkies. You'll see that 'episodes' has different artwork than 'podcasts' in the search results. Do I just need to wait it out? Or rename my mp3s?
Keep in mind, there is another podcast with the same name no artwork. This is not my podcast but someone else's.
Thanks again! -
We are using ZENWorks 4 imaging (with IR5) and have been using the documents about automating the imaging process. The question that I have is when the workstation it reimaged and reboots, ZENWorks agent comes up with the windows that indicates that it is making changes to the computer and states not to log in till the machine reboots. I believe it is taking the ZIS information and putting this information back into the workstation. (workstation name etc). On windows 2000 the machine reboots without any problems when this process is complete. With Windows XP the machine does not seem to reboot. If the workstation is manually rebooted everything works fine. I have found that if the workstation is left for about 10 minutes, it will actually reboot on its own. Is there a way to have this reboot occur more quickly?
Didn't know that this could be done. Where do I make those changes.
Thanks.

yes... you could disable the feature that you are directly able to login

on the other side I just had wks this week who rebooted itself without this

All you should be concerned with at this moment to get the background image to appear in the top level anchor is the css style below:
/* Menu items that have a submenu have the class designation MenuBarItemSubmenu and are set to use a background image positioned on the far left (95%) and centered vertically (50%) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenu
background-color: #000;
background-image: url(../rot.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: left top;
I've added the background-postion because presumably you want it to appear flush left. This overides the out-of-the-box setting which positions it 95% far left.

No Thumbs or Main Image with Spry Gallery Demo
Hi everyone, DW CS3 newbie here.
I hope this topic hasn't been beaten into the ground yet.
I'm trying to put together a site
(members.cox.net/rangersbu9/gallery.html) for my son's soccer team
and am running into a wall getting the original, dynamic Spry
gallery demo to work. I've done my best to collect and modify the
required files and place them appropriately but, when the files are
loaded on the live server (the wrap div contents are all but
invisible when I view with IE7 locally, apparently due to the PC
not be set up as local server) the thumbs are 'x's and the main
image is a 1px x 1px dot.
The controls will highlight between the empty thumbs and the
gallery pull-down will select between the two options I've put in
the XML file but that's about it. Perhaps it is my ignorance, but
it seems like a ( src= ) tag is missing in the 'mainImageOutline'
div because I cannot understand where the main picture is coming
from otherwise.
Any insight from the source at the link above? Please keep in
mind I have two week's experience with DW and website building but
do have a programming background (from a few decades ago :->). I
believe I have the un-updated CS3 Spry version, if that matters.
Many thanks to Don and others here for posts that have helped
me get this far.
-KurtUpdate:
Got the thumbs to appear. Had them physically sized larger
than the XML fields stated. However, they will not grow/shrink. In
digging through gallery.js, I see that those two functions call
Spry.Effects.SizeAndPosition() - I cannot find that function in any
of the includes (i.e. SpryEffects.js). Spry.Effects.Size yes, but
not SizeAndPosition. Wondering if this gallery.js calls a later
version of SpryEffects.js than I currently have installed (it's
Spry 1.4). I will download 1.6 and check it out but if anyone has
any other input, please let me know.
Still no main image. In gallery.js I found ShowCurrentImage()
which had a hardcoded path to the images that did not match mine.
Corrected the path but no change.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Question about adjusting an image to compensate for an alpha black overlay
I don't know how accurate that title/question is but please hear me out and I'l explain it as best I can.
There is a touchscreen monitor in my car.
It allows custom background wallpapers to be loaded via USB.
The touchscreen automatically adds what would appear to be about a 25% alpha black layer in FRONT of the image so the touchscreen controls and icons are clearly visible.
The problem is, I don't know what values I'm supposed to adjust on my image in order to get it to look the same way it does on my computer screen.
Would you adjust the brightness? Contrast? Tint? A combination of all of them?
Or is this simply not possible because the ~25% alpha black tint is placed OVER the wallpaper?
I'd really appreciate some advice. I don't mind tinkering with the values and using trial and error but I don't want to waste my time if this simply isn't possible.Just so it's clear, you're not going to be able to "brighten it up" so it looks just like the original - at least not completely so. An image can only be as bright as bright white. If that has been reduced by an overlay, you're not going to be able to make the original image "brighter than white" so as to compensate. Maybe someday, when HDR image formats are common...
The car is darkening the image on purpose in order to make the locations of the controls more obvious. I can't imagine why you'd want such a busy image as a background, since it makes the actual controls difficult to find.
I read an article today that says that testing has shown that automotive touch screens distract drivers as much as a 0.08 blood alcohol level. And you're wanting to make it more difficult to find those controls.
Whatever you do, please be careful.

ANOTHER question about moving referenced files.....
After reading through most of the posts I could find, I am still not finding the answer to my question. I assume it's simple, but I'm a (second-guessing?) LR2 convert, and while I love Aperture's UI, I'm really struggling with file management.
Here's how I like to work. Insert card into reader, and copy the folder (100CANON) to my desktop. Open Aperture, import all the photos from their current location. I like to edit, keyword, rename, etc at this point.
Let's say I had 10 photos in that folder, 5 of my dog, 5 of my car. Here's where my confusion begins:
I want to select the 5 dog photos, and move their physical location to my Pictures/Dogs folder on my hard drive, as well as to my Dogs project in Aperture. I try 'Relocate Master', which moves the file to the desired path on my hard drive. Unfortunately, the thumbnail still resides in the 100CANON project.
So therein lies my question, if I want these dog photos in the Dogs project I now have to drag the thumbnails from the 100CANON project to the Dogs project.
That seems like extra steps, and I can see that causing a lot of confusion, especially when trying to sort a folder with images that need to go in several different projects. I can't help but think I'm missing something obvious - why can't I go into my 100CANON project and drag the thumbnails to the appropriate project, and have the finder path update as well?
Save the "you should let Aperture manage your files" discussion, I'm not interested in that. I need to use referenced masters.JF wrote:
what do -you- do with your photos when you import them?
I take the CF card and Finder-copy the contents to a hard drive where they will ideally live forever. Then I eject the CF card (very important error-avoidance step). If the folder contents are not a single shoot at this point from the Finder I review the folder to see if I want the images to comprise more than one project; if so, each project is split into a separate folder with its own name.
Next I back up the folder of images which is labeled something like "101113Buckleymstrs." 101113 is 2010/Nov/13, Buckley is the job/project/event and mstrs indicates those images are the Masters. The backup folder is named "101113Buckley_mstrsbkup."
Note that at this point and forever I can Finder-search for the date or for the job/project/event or for mstrs or for bkup to find images. No Aperture involved yet. Also note that the year/month/day format at the start of the file name properly alphabetizes the folders by date on the hard drives. Most of the files on my hard drives are done that way.
Next I start to import into Aperture by reference into a new Project named "101113_Buckley" using the exact nomenclature used for "101113Buckleymstrs" except without "_mstrs" appended. If Aperture irrevocably lost the link to the masters I could Finder-search on the "101113_Buckley" and find them. At this step before import I review the pix Aperture is set to import and uncheck any obvious duds before clicking to import. The duds remain in the masters and backup folders but I do not care because hard drive capacity is cheap while my time and improved error avoidance have significant value.
I always shoot RAW+JPEG and sometimes I make two Aperture Project imports, one of the RAWs and another of the JPEGs: "101113Buckley_mstrsRAW" and "101113Buckley_mstrsJPEG."
For specific issues like "dogs" I use keywords to create Albums. Or if Buckley is a construction project, for instance, over time multiple Aperture Projects related to the Buckley construction will be created, all of which will point to a Buckley Construction Album. Other albums might be "Buckley Site Work," "Buckley Foundation," etc. Albums are very powerful and take up essentially zero space because they are comprised only of pointers.
I assume you're letting Aperture manage them? I think the issue is that I'm not ready to let Aperture take control of my library.
I manage every image very intentionally, using the tools Aperture makes available.
Do you have random folders strung out all over your Pictures folder with the various imports you've done over the years?
Folders are not random. They are sequential (which is how photos by definition always occur) and they are named identically to the corresponding Aperture Projects as noted above.
It boils down to this for me. I have preferred being able to navigate a file structure within LR to find that one image I'm after. Yes, I realize I could search for it by keyword, whatever, but sometimes I might not even remember how I categorized it. I used to do commercial interior shoots, and had them labeled by address. It's nice to traverse a folder hierarchy if you need to, and it seems like if I turn over control to Aperture I'd be giving that up.
I understand the need some folks have for what I call "film-think" or "folder-think." If you must use folders IMO best is to do it with the Masters before going into Aperture. Within Aperture IMO folder-think is debilitating to optimal use of the images database tools.
I analogize each Aperture Project to a roll of film that occurred at a point in time (an hour or a day or whatever). It gets dated and named in the hard drive archives and in Aperture. Aperture's pointers and key words allow us to create an infinite variety of Albums without relocating the hundreds of original Projects/Rolls of film.

Hello, my name is Luis Diaz and I have always appreciated the help here in the iWeb community. I've been using iWeb for a long time. For some reason my usernames are not working lately - LuisDiazArt or RabidArt)
I updated my domain service with Host Excellence before MobileMe expired and thank you guys for the help with that. So far it's been a flawless service and because of that I'm very happy. I also have all my domains in GoDaddy. They have been very helpful
Okay I'm going to try to explain my current problem. I'm trying to create a subdomain in GoDaddy for my website: LuisDiazArt.com
I went and added a Subdomain in the Control Panel as: store.LuisDiazArt.com The subdomain suppose to mask my store: luisdiaz.storenvy.com
I thought by adding this subdomain it would make all the addresses look similar (and more clean) just in case someone gets lost along the way.
So what's happening after I waited an hour is I'm getting: http://store.luisdiazart.com/LuisDiazArt.com/Art_of_Luis_Diaz_%7C_LuisDiazArt.co m.html
I'm getting the huge and familair long addresses and it is not pointing to my store, but to the homepage.
Did I do something wrong or do I not understand something fully about subdomains? I thought you can make a subdomain point to another site. Perhaps it can't be done the way I'm thinking about this.
So to fix this issue I am thinking about making a duplicate website with a different domain name (RabidArt) and mask it with LuisDiazArt (this is site name I use on business card and everything else). After that make a subdomain with the same: http://store.luisdiazart.com
Perhaps this may fix the problem.
So to do this I may need to add another site onto my account (Basic and not Business) on HostExcellence.
So my other questions are:
Can I have multiple domains or websites using iWeb on a Basic Host Excellence Account? I checked out a few websites, but couldn't really find out if I can have multiple domains/websites using iWeb on Host Excellence with my current account.
I do know how to make a new duplicate site, but do you publish it the same way as you would with the regular site or do I have to so something different?
Hopefully the problem can be fixed not having to do a new site and maybe it was something I did wrong when I added a subdomain.To add more domains you need to upgrade your account.
To have a sub domain for your store you need to create a separate site in iWeb and upload these files to the store.luisdiazart.com folder.
The files for the main site go in the luisdiazart folder.

Question about WLAN Site Surveys with 802.11n APs - 1142s
I do site surveys a little differently that everyone else nowadays, I believe. In the past, I used an autonomous 1230 or 1240, but now I use a lightweight 1142. I configure a port in a room to be on the AP VLAN and I connect my 1142 to the port and hang it where I want - it then gets on the controller and start broadcasting just like the finished product will. This works well except for the time it takes me to configure a port on the switch and the bootup time for the AP. I'm one of the Networks Architects on a campus of almost 200 buildings, so I have access to all the routers and switches and can configure anything I need while onsite.
Now I want to have someone else (in-house) to do our surveys - but this person(s) does not have access to switches and routers, and that won't ever change.
I tried configuring a lightweight 1142 in HREAP mode to handoff to this person, but it appears the power and channel settings don't stick on the 5 GHz side.
Scrapping that idea, I now have to build out an autonomous 1142 for site surveying. I missed out on this step because I went from buying 1242s (can jump between lightweight and autonomous) to 1142s (which didn't have an autonomous image at that time, I believe). This is why I started surveying with lightweight 1142s.
I'm curious if anyone has gone through the configuration of an autonomous 1142 and wouldn't mind sharing their "lessons learned". I haven't seen a matrix of features that are supported/not supported on 1142s when configured for lightweight vs. autonomous.
I currently aim for designing around the 5 GHz radios set to 10 dBm, 20% cell overlap. I also turn on 40 MHz channels in 5 GHz range. This usually ends up with an AP in every other or every third classroom, depending on how old the building is and how many times it has been renovated. I can't "just throw APs out there" since each building is different - some are thin concrete block, some are poured cement, and some are block with metal mesh and stucco. Those usually end up with on AP per classroom.
Does anyone have a matrix on what can and cannot be turned on in an autonomous AP? I would like to get my config as close to the lightweight scenario we deploy for all of our production WLANs.There is no matrix as to what you're asking for. I've done conversions and configurations of AP's from Lightweight to Autonomous and vice-versa. The configuration of the autonomous AP can be identical to the Lightweight AP from a client perspective.
My current setup has 3 SSID's (VoIP, Data, and Guest) on the autonomous AP. Couple things I do:
1. PoE powered AP through a Tessco power pack.
2. VLANs have to be enabled on the AP (1 for each SSID)
3. The SSID's will have to be created and each AP mapped to a VLAN
4. The SSID's will be need to be enabled on both radios if desired.
The easiest way to configure the AP is to power it with either the power cord.
Console into the AP and let it boot. Assign an IP address to the BVI 1 interface.
Assign an IP address on the wired NIC of our laptop and plug an ethernet cable into the AP's ethernet port.
Configure the AP as listed above via the web gui.
This is by no means a complete answer, but your questions were all over the map.

Questions about TANDBERG MXP 550 with Call manager 4.2
Hello,
I have an TANDBERG MXP550 configured as an H.323 client in call manager 4.2 without a gatekeeper.
1. When I make a call between the TANDBERG and another phone registered. I have the ip address of the call manager displayed on the screen instead of the extension number. Is it possible to display the extension number without a gatekeeper ?
2. The other question is about the streaming. Can I get and read the multicast stream on a PC with a software client ? I tried with VLC (VideoLan Client), with the multicast address I don't get the stream. When I activate the Session Announcement Protocol (SAP) I can receive the stream, but the video is bad (probably a codec problem). Did somebody find a software client which reads the multicast stream?
Thanks,Call manager provides the called party with the extension or directory number of the calling party on a display. You can use the Calling Line ID Presentation field in the Gateway Configuration window to control whether the CLID displays for all outgoing calls on the gateway.Refer URL
