Redirect in iWeb08 using HTML Snippet works only on preview

Hello, I'm trying to redirect a page in iWeb08 using an HTML Snippet.
It works fine on the preview, but on the live site it only gives me a blank page (the page to be redirected is blank apart from the snippet). Any ideas where I'm posisbly going wrong? It's a GoDaddy-hosted site, and all is fine on that front. It's just the redirect doesn't seem to work live. I've tried a few variants, all of which work fine in preview but not live.
Many thanks

Are you using the following script in the HTML snippet ON the page being redirected, not on the destination page?
<script type="text/javascript">
parent.location.replace('URL TO PAGE YOU WANT TO REDIRECT TO');
</script>
See this demo page: Redirect

My html snippet has only worked for 2 minutes in three months.

Warning: Long, descriptive story up ahead.
I bought my macbook pro complete with iLife 08 bundle software in January and eventually I became a little bit more advanced so I wanted to try using "html snippets" in iWeb.
That's when I discovered it was not working on my iWeb. (I have the latest version of iWeb 08 possible). Also, this is of less concern but my navigation menu is not displaying either-- meaning on the face of my webpages the individual Page Titles are not displaying "Main", "About Me" when I choose "display navigation menu" option from the inspector-- all I get is a big stupid empty space. And yes, I have all the options check to "display this page in my navigation menu" or some such.
So I drove over to an applestore (which took a whole freaking day of my time) and they opened up software updates in the store. This was around the whole MobileMe thing, so I got that upgrade too. And magically my iWeb's html snippets started working for the first time ever! I almost cried, but let's face it, there are more beautiful and spectacular things in life worth my tears of joy. Anyway, I indeed was really happy because I thought this was going to be the beginning of me being able to html snippet youtube videos directly onto my site and do other such amazing things!
Then today when I got home, I'm back to the same stupid non-working html snippet feature again!!!!
I can describe the html snippet issue a little bit: In my non-working html snippet version, a little transparent box appears when I try and open up html snippets... in this little box I can't type anything. How iWeb should work is that this black box should appear where you can type in your code and then a separate little box below the black one works on displaying what you coded.
One maybe important thing I noticed is that... You know how when you open up iWeb, in the left column by your sites there are/were those blue globe .mac picture? Well, after the MobileMe upgrade in the store (just yesterday actually on the 27th), those blue globes turned into blue squares with white clouds. So I think the conversion from .mac to MobileMe helped fixed my bugs? Because today my html snippets doesn't work again and I'm back to the .mac blue globes. I want those little blue squares with white clouds again if it will fix my issue!!
HELP, please. Thanks!

I would look at several things. I'm assuming it shows fully charged after you charge it and that this is a new iphone and not used. Check your location services under Privacy: Location Services for apps that use your location. If you have apps always checking your location it can use power. Turn off any you don't really need. You can always turn them back on.
Check you wifi settings. Turn off the " Ask to join other Networks". If you are driving down the road it will be looking for other networks to join.
Turn off any apps running in the background that are not needed.
Restart your iPhone after you have done this. Hopefully this will improve your battery usage.

HTML snippet works on Firefox but not in IE or Safari

First off, I'm a newbie.
I just created a webcam site in iWeb at www.blackcatcam.com. I used the following HTML snippet to show the webcam image;
http://home.comcast.net/~ebizboy/Webcam.jpg />
It is supposed to go get a constantly updated webcam image from the server and display it on the web site.
The entire page works fine using Firefox but the webcam image does not show up using Safari and the HTML snippet itself shows up when accessing the page from IE.
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Gatto Nero

Yikes. Now I'm even more confused. I am using Safari Version 4.0.3. I can see the links on the right and the ads on the left just fine, but still no webcam image. Would you mind clicking on the link for the Live View and let me know if that works for you? I found out that the gadget I used for that won't work with IE but it works fine for me with Safari and Firefox.

Html snippet works w/in iweb but NOT when site is live & online @$#!

help!? I have had a flash based slide show working on my iweb site for some time I used iweb enhancer to make it work w/ iweb 06 - now in 08 the "enhancer" doesnt work. The html snippet should & seems to...I am able to get the pages to behave very well while IN iweb the slide shows load while the program is active & when I publish the site to a folder the site works great - UNTIL I upload it and try to view it online THEN it doesnt work properly.
I have a google map snippet that works fine live OR when browsing from the hard drive/folder WHY wont the snippets work when they are uploaded if they work ON my computer?????
site is www.austin-studios.com click on seniors OR children...
-thanks in advance

Phil,
Everything is working fine on my end too. (OSX 10.5.2) Tried your site on Safari 3.1 / Netscape Navigator 9.0.0.3 / Firefox 2.0.0.9 and Camino Version 2007022813 (1.0.4)... each one ran your snippets with out fail
Would emptying cache on your computer help?
Good Luck,
John

How can I keep My 2 email accounts and all other using HTML? It only lasts temporarily, i.e. for the day...

(1) - when I open Firefox I recently have clicked on the hyperlink for HTML at the bottom of page, it works great for my gmail and yahoo accounts. However, it is not a permanent fix, as it apparently lasts just for the daily session. How can I keep my internet, et al. HTML permanently?
(2) - Firefox v24.0 is said to be fast and faster! However, I am not finding it so. when I click on a link or open a tab, it is frustrating as the tab labors too long to open...I more than not click on reload, which appears to help somewhat. Any suggestions?
(3) - I've just printed out the Mozilla Support Q&A on the error message from Firefox stating that it cannot load the website...how to I remedy this, as it occurs constantly with my Yahoo mail login?
(4) Finally, several weeks ago I inadvertently popped the "HEALTH" Bookmark (I have a Bookmarks Toolbar), which is excellent (had it with WinXP also, now with Win7), but I seem to pop, double click, or something or other, that makes a bookmark folder jump into the wild blue yonder! I've posted for answers here and elsewhere, printed out and read all variable instructions to navigate and locate, all to no avail. More sage advice please?
with appreciation and, thanks in advance.

For #1, is the link to use HTML to simplify the interface?
It may be that the site stores your preference in a cookie, and you might have set Firefox to delete the cookie when you exit the browser. There are a few built-in ways to do this:
* Set Firefox to "Keep [cookies] until: I close Firefox" on the Privacy Options (you can create an exception for your mail sites)
* Set Firefox to "Clear history when Firefox closes" on the Privacy Options
* Use a private browsing window to visit your mail site
It's also possible that add-ons or external software may clean out cookies, or that there is a problem with the database file Firefox uses the store cookies.
For #2, did this problem just start recently? Do you notice any relationship with the type of site content (e.g., pages that use Flash or other media)?

Overlapping Buttons in Firefox - Using HTML/CSS - Works in IE6

I have html that is being ingnored. Here is the snippet:
<pre><nowiki><%}else{%>
<DIV> <div style="float:right> <DIV CLASS="smallbuttons">
<TABLE WIDTH=100% BORDER=0 CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0>
<TR>

</TD>
<TD align="RIGHT">
<input type="button" name="E-Mail Notification" value="E-Mail" onClick="javascript:popemail();">
<input type="button" name="Help" value="Help" onClick="javascript:help();">
<img src="Images/Reviewnotes.gif" style="cursor: hand" alt="Create or read review notes for this component" border="0" onClick="javascript:reviewnotes();">

</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
</DIV> </DIV> </DIV>
<%}%>
</nowiki></pre>
It's using the css Below:
<pre><nowiki>TD {
font-family : Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size : 12px;
color : 330033;
.number{
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: right;
.smallbuttons
position: absolute;
top: 92px;
float:right;
left: 10px;
.regular{
font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 12px;
}</nowiki></pre>
But the buttons overlap the text. I'm trying to shift the buttons from email etc to the right. Any ideas would be appreciated. This issue causes the text that in IE a row lower to shift up and the buttons overlapp.

Output preview works only when preview dialogue box is open?

The output preview setting certainly takes effect, but only when the output preview dialogue box is open, so that accurately previewing images in reading mode is not possible; it's only possible to see a preview by going to an image and opening the OP dialogue box. As soon as the OP dialogue box is closed, the image reverts back to its pre-preview state. This can't be right!

Thanks for your feedback. I had tried to navigate with the dialogue box open using the "hand", which didn't work; I see now that you can still go from page to page with the box open using either keyboard command or menu arrows.
I was actually incorrect in referring to "reading mode"; I meant to say "full screen" mode. And again, since the cursor doesn't act as a cursor but rather as a pinpoint when the dialogue box is open, I incorrectly assumed that all navigation (including full screen mode) was disabled. This, I now see, is not the case.

Vertical align page html snippet

hi
Does anyone have example of html code for vertically aligned content in iweb?

Cyclosaurus is not always complete with his instructions.
I don't do tutorial, therefore there is no instruction.
my examples work, which means the code is good.
you will have to decode my iweb pages, my codes and my methods. (same apply to apple sw guys)
i saw this page (http://temp.cyclosaurus.com/VerticalCenterPage/ShortPage.html), but i could not aquire necessary code... but it does not work
because the code won't work when inserted using html snippet, it only works when directly inserted on the page.
/ShortPagefiles/widget0CustomCode.html
that's where my widget CustomCode does the work.
give them feedback: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iweb.html
and ask for tools to build widgets.

HTML Snippet won't work.

I am creating a new site on iWeb 08. I want to have a snippet of my "Blog" page in a box on my "Home" page.
I published the site, went online and copied the view source (HTML Code). I then went back to iWeb and pasted the HTML Code into the snippet box and applied. I can see the outline boxes from the Blog page but no other information. I called Apple and they said what I am doing should work, but it doesn't. I'm not very familiar with HTML code so Cut and Paste is the best I can do.

Hello,
If I understand it correctly. That is what I did with my cat's website :
On here main page http://www.site49.eu/Taxi/Welcome.html
you'll see on the right bottom "My latest blog entry' and an iFrame (insert HTML snippet) showing only the latest blog entry. (function scroll.to)
Remark : it doesn't work well with Firefox.
I'm not behind my iWeb computer right now.
In the meantime, can you post the iFrame code you used ?
Kind regards,
Leo

HTML Snippet doesn't seem to work

Hi there
I recently upgraded from iWeb 08 to iWeb 09.
My problem is, HTML Snippet Widget doesn't seem to work.
Even though I am able to drag the HTML Snippet onto my page
and they just look fine on my iMac, when I publish and upload the files,
those counter and ads I made using HTML Snippet are all gone.
I see nothing at the places they should be.
What should I do?
Or am I missing something?

Thanks for reply. Old Toad,
I'm hosting my site using third party server, not by using MobileMe.
My counter is made by third party as well.
Here's one of my page using iWeb 08.
http://americatvfilmnotes.web.fc2.com/Public_Enemies.html
Everything is fine.
I can see every ads I put there.
And here's the one I made by basically copying format from the page above.
But this time, I used iWeb 09 and alas,
All my ads are gone.
http://americatvfilmnotes.web.fc2.com/Cheri.html
I just added the counter for this page and uploaded but
I cannot see it as well.
Of course I can see them on my iWeb 09.
I used Cyberduck to upload.
Anyways, the point is, why I cannot do things I could before when
I was using iWeb 08?
I think I'm totally lost.

HTML Snippet Truncated

I'm trying to use Old Toad's Embedding Forms tutorial "Adding Email Comments Form Via HTML Snippet".
When I add it to my iWeb page using the HTML Snippet the bottom gets truncated ie, the Submit and Clear buttons don't display.
Here is the address of my page http://web.mac.com/billspaulding/ohs50s/UnderConstruction.html
In addition, the formatting of the text paragraph at the top of the page is messed up ie, lines squeezed together.
What am I doing wrong?
Bill

I published, first Site Changes and then the Entire Site, to a local folder and I don't see the buttons at the bottom of the form in either case. And the text still doesn't have enough space between lines (this is one of the problems - it looks fine in iWeb after it's saved and before it's published).
The problems only occur when I try to use iWeb's HTML Snippets. When I Publish Changes to MM then download the page with CyberDuck, insert the code using Taco HTML Edit, and then upload with CyberDuck everything works.
I guess this means something is wrong with my iWeb application. I'll perform the remaining troubleshooting steps suggested on the site you referenced. But if that doesn't fix the problems I guess I'll give up and just not use HTML Snippets.

HTML snippet height problem in all browsers but Safari

hi i'm trying to embed Vimeo in my webpage using HTML snippet. i thought it was working fine until i found out that in other browsers than Safari the movie is cut off at about 120 pixels..
i did some testing and now i find that whatever HTML code i try to publish using HTML snippet looks
cut off ! no matter what the height settings are, and believe me i tried everything, and all sorts of code..
this is such a mayor bug, i cant understand why i cant find other people with this issue??
using IWEB 09 last version..
please have a look at this:
http://www.geertmul.nl/Geert_Mul/LibraryOfBabel.html
with both Safari and Firefox.
see what i mean..??
thanx for a reply !

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. I've experienced something similar. Here's how I fixed it. After using the apply button I clicked and dragged the snippet lower border down a long way. Don't worry if it overlaps other items. After dragging DONOT hit the apply button again. Just do a Publish Site Changes and try the page in Firefox again. Be sure to clear the browser's cache so you don't view the previous version of the page.
NOTE: you might change the caption lines from 2 to 3 in your album pages as a couple of the albums are requiring a 3rd line and it's partially cut off. Also the image for the Split Representation Prints album is giving an error. The link works but the album doesn't have a photo in it.

HTML Snippet customized paypal buttons not showing correctly when published

Hi, My customized paypal buttons that i but on my iweb site using html snippets are not displaying correctly. They work in Opera but not in firefox or safari. Please take a look and tell me what you think might be wrong. (all the links are working it's just not showing the graphics correctly (apart from in Opera)
http://www.alisonbrent.com/ShopTableLamps.html
Also I've just noticed that when i return to my iweb application (after closing in down) the Html snippets aren't there anymore just an outline, just like they appear in safari?
Many thanks,
Ali
P.S

Bonjour
You inserted an image inside the ShopTable_Lampsfiles folder but it's is deleted every time you publish your page
1) Create an new folder named Paypal in your root folder:
FTP: With a FTP software (like Cyberduck) create a new folder in your server root folder
MobileMe: just make an new folder inside the Folder Sites (iDisk > Web > Sites)
Name this Folder "paypal"
2) insert your image "addtocartbutton.png" inside this paypal folder
Get the new URL of your image , something like
http://www.alisonbrent.com/paypal/addtocartbutton.png
3) Paste this URL in your codes, replace
src="http://www.alisonbrent.com/ShopTable_Lampsfiles/addtocartbutton.png"
by
src="http://the/new/URL/of/addtocartbutton.png"
