Remote Rollover in Dreamweaver CS3

I want to do something like the effect achieved with the "who" and "why" buttons on this site - http://voicubojan.com/. I'm not sure what to call this to know how to search for how to do it. I have Dreamweaver CS3 and WindowsXP. Thanks for any help.

It's often called a Disjointed Rollover.
You can see from View Source in a browser that the example in the link is actually toggling the CSS class in the sidebar from display:block (visible) to display:none (hidden)
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
   $('#content').css('min-height', $(window).height() - 207);
   $('#whoLink').click(function () {
    $('#who').css('display', 'block');
    $('#why').css('display', 'none');
   $('#whyLink').click(function () {
    $('#why').css('display', 'block');
    $('#who').css('display', 'none');
</script>
In the Dreamweaver Behaviors panel, (Window > Behaviors), you could also explore "Set Text of Container"

Imagemap Rollover image - Dreamweaver CS3

Hey, a quick run-down of what im trying to do:
I have a background image of a map. What im wanting to do is when I hover over the word 'Germany' say, i want a new image to appear. Can this be done using Imagemap as apose to 'Rollover Image' or can it only be done in php?
Example if it helps explain better: if i hover over a login button thats actually part of the header image, txt will appear in a predefined place
Thanks
Stephen

Yes, it's possible to do. You would trigger a 'tooltip' with the mouseover event on the hotspot. You can investigate the use of the Spry tooltip that is in DW, or you can investigate the many 3rd party tooltip scripts. My favorite is a commercial one (tooltipmagic), at http://www.projectseven.com.

Dreamweaver CS3 no longer opens files

Greetings,
I am not sure where to post this, so I will post here - already have a question open on the Dreamweaver forums.
I have run into an unusual problem. I can no longer open files either on my local machine or remote server without Dreamweaver CS3 freezing. I am using OS X Leopard - 10.5.2 on an Intel MacBook Pro. A week or so ago I was able to open my .asp files just fine. Now, Dreamweaver simply freezes when I try and open them - either locally or remotely. I tried deleted the preferences file and removing site information from Manage Sites with no luck. I can create and open new files, but cannot open the existing files.
I copied the files in question to a PC and opened them just fine using Dreamweaver 8.02. I just don't know enough about the technical aspects to properly troubleshoot this problem. I already tried reinstalling also.
By the way, I am able to access, open and edit my files from the remote server using my PC and version 8.02.
Any ideas?

It seems this is a known issue with Dreamweaver. I was able to access the files just fine by deselecting "display external links" in the view menu. Strange that I did not have to do this before.
For anyone interested, here are some links about this: http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=12&catid=18 9&threadid=1262486&highlight_key=y&keyword1=design%20mode and http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401608&sliceId=1

Dreamweaver CS3 Remote View file display

Specs:
Dreamweaver CS3 on Windows XP Pro SP2.
Upgraded from DreamWeaver MX
1680 x 1050 60Hz resolution on vertical display LCD panel
with the monitor turned/displayed verticle so I can view more of
our site tree.
Problem:
When viewing files in split panel display (Remote Site on the
left, Local Files on the right) my Remote Site display will
collapse upward...hiding files from view, but they are actually
still there: I can click Refresh and the tree expands again: After
several seconds or sometimes immediately portions of the
folders/files will collapse/hide again.
It will do this to files I have selected. It will hide files
I have checked out. The worst of it is that sometimes files will
hide or collapse within sub-folders..giving the appearance that
files are stored in incorrect folders.
Thank you for your time

Can you explain the symptoms in more detail? Mixing the use
of DW8 with
DWCS3 would not make remote files appear and disappear.

How do you do a remote rollover?

So Im trying to create a remote rollover in an html page.
I knew how to do it in Image Ready and GoLive.
Now that Im using Dreamweaver and Photoshop CS3, I now dont
know.
Do you have to use Fireworks? (I would assume there is a
built in way to assign remote rollover behaviors in FW)
The help in Dreamweaver says you can swap out multiple images
with the same rollover behavior but fails to instruct me how (as
far as I can see)

> The help in Dreamweaver says you can swap out multiple

That's how you do it. Select the trigger (text or image) and
apply a swap
image behavior. In the behavior pane that opens, select the
image you want
to swap out, and browse to and select the one you want to
replace it. To
swap another image, repeat that process, until you run out of
images. Then
click OK to close the behavior pane.

Corrupt Dreamweaver CS3 files

I've been working on a websites, my second one, for over a
month now and I've really enjoyed getting to know Dreamweaver CS3.
Unfortunately, the inevitable happened last night.
I returned to my computer (Macbook Pro OSX 10.4.11) and
opened my html and CSS files and both were corrupt. All the code
was gone and some sort of jibberish was in it's place. This is the
second time this has happened and I have not installed any
extensions.
There was no error message when I opened the file and I can
only guess what the problem might be. I recently moved the files
from my local folder to my desktop because I wasn't ready to
publish yet. Dreamweaver, or my Mac, was also having trouble
recognizing Jpeg files.
I'm pretty disappointed but really don't know what to do.
I've considered two resolutions, neither of which is very
appealing. First, I could reinstall Dreamweaver and make sure all
files are placed properly in the root folder, or second, I could
reinstall the entire OS and all CS3 apps.
I know recovering the files is not likely, and I have earlier
versions saved, but more importantly, I want to make sure
Dreamweaver works properly in the future so I can avoid having to
redo weeks of work. If anyone has advice or has experienced
something similar, I would sincerely appreciate your input.
Many thanks.
Doug

Thanks much for the reply.
This isn't a live site so no FTP or remote server was
involved. I wonder if moving the files to my desktop caused the
problem? All files for the site were originally set up in the
shared folder for publishing from the mac but they were always
local. I moved them to the desktop to rebuild and test a rollover
nav issue which I was able to resolve (a big step forward)
But now, all files are corrupt.
I'm seriously considering reinstalling the entire OS and
apps. Backing up all my design files and the resources saved to
bridge would be a pain, for sure, but the main goal is to have a
stable environment for development moving forward as I'll be taking
courses to incorporate mySQL and PHP this fall.
This did happen one other time, so maybe it's an installation
issue. I wish I could provide more info but I'm stumped.
Disappointing...

In Dreamweaver CS3, can I save to Test AND Production FTP Servers when I press save the document?

Hi, and thank you for reading this.
I've setup a production and test FTP servers in Dreamweaver CS3. It is either saves to production or test server when I click COMMAND+S (CONTROL on PC), but I'd like teh file to be saved on both simultaneously. Persssing Sync the Servers won't work since the servers are not mine and they a bit different, teh files are not the same. I just would like to be able to save 1 file at a time in both production and server with one click.
I've been searching the Interenet but could not find anything other than basic FTP setup. Any help would be appreaciated. Thanks!
Anton

Hi John, first of all thank you for replying!
The reason why I would like to have Dreamweaver to save to both servers Test and the Production at the same time is because it would save me a lot of time keeping both servers more or less in sync. I have to keep both Test and Production servers syncronized, but only wihtin a specific content. While I test my design I do use Test server, but then the hassle begins when I am asked to make changes to the content.
For example, I have a content page called books.html. I first built it on a Test server. Then switched to the tab called Remote, connect to the Remote Server, and save it. Very simple.
However, then I need to create 10 more pages, lets call them books1.html, books2.html, and so on. Again sync them with the Remote server.
All is great, but then my boss comes and say, hey there is a mistake on these files: books3, books4, books7, and books8. Please change the text content on those. So, I know the pages are working fine, I just need to update the text on both Test and Remote servers.
So at this point I have to open these 4 files, change the text, then SAVE ALL to Test server. Then, I switch to Remote tab, go back to files press any key and 'Delete' keys so that Dreamweaver would see the change in file so that it would be able to save it. Then again 'SAVE ALL' to the Remote server.
This is happening very OFTEN. It would save me so much time and brain power remembering which files I should sync if I am in a hurry and jump from one project to another, losing track of small changes in files when there are a lot of .html files.
CMS is only in development now so I have to work with what I got. As to regard to backups, I use Time Machine so I am set with that. Plus I use MAMP. So basically I first use MAMP for testing, then upload changes to the Test server with all the BIG databases, and only then to Remote (production) with real Database. However, this is only when I develop new pages, very often I just need to modify what's already has been created. So that's why a feature like Save to BOTH servers (Test and Remote) would make a big difference to me.

Dreamweaver CS3 and Mac OS 10.4.11 Incompatability

I have been using Dreamweaver CS3 under OS 10.4.10 for a few
months without significant issues... but after upgrading to 10.4.11
there is a significant problem.
I am unable to access any of my remote servers to upload
files to the sites I have built.
I was able to reinstall Dreamweaver 8 and it works fine with
all the same setups
I've read a technote on a noted problem with Dreamweaver CS3
and Mac OS 10.5 - but it also appears to happen on 10.4.11
You can read the 10.5 technote here:
http://www.adobe.com/go/kb402780

I have not experienced this problem. Try removing the DW CS3
preferences file in your Library and then let DW build a new one.
BTW, what error you are getting when you try to FTP?

CMD+ shortcuts not working in Dreamweaver CS3

I'm have a very strange issue with CMD+ keyboard shortcuts
not working in Dreamweaver CS3 on OSX 10.5. These actions are
working from the menus (i.e., copy, cut, paste, etc.). CMD+
shortcuts work in other CS3 apps. I've searched this forum and
googled up and down and found some references to issues like this
with Dreamweaver 8, but nothing for CS3.
Has anyone experienced this problem? I'm completely stumped.
Lawrence

My concern wasn't with the navbar, but thanks for the headsup.
The problem is that the link in the upper left hand corner, Suzie's Story, is a rollover image but it does not reveal the other image when the cursor goes over it.
                        <div id="topTabs1">
   <div align="center"><a href="http://www.google.com" onmouseout="MM_swapImgRestore()" onmouseover="MM_swapImage('suzie','','Images/Suzie's Story Tab_light.jpg',1)"><img src="Images/Suzie's Story Tab_black.jpg" alt="suzie" name="suzie" width="75" height="45" border="0" id="suzie" /></a></div>
         </div>
#topTabs1 {
width: 75px;
height: 45px;
float: left;
background-color: #ffffff;
padding-left: 0px;
padding-right: 0px

Can't create new sites in Dreamweaver CS3. Help!

I am trying to create a new site in Dreamweaver CS3 but keep
getting the following error:
"The action cannot be completed because the other program is
busy.
Choose 'Switch to' to activate the program and correct the
problem"
I have tried every documented solution on the adobe website
and other discussion forums and still cannot get past the problem.
I have restarted the IIS server on my local PC as documented
on the following adobe technote:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_16485&sliceId=2
Other things I have done:
1. I have followed all the advice in the links at the bottom
of the above page.
2. I have created a new user, logged into that and tried
creating a site with a "virgin" environment
and I still have the problem.
3. I have gone into the registry and renamed the site
configuration info in case something was corrupted.
This removed all my site configurations. No help!
4. I have turned of my firewall and restarted the IIS
server.
5. I have searched the web for anything even remotely
similar to this error and tried every tip out there.
I called Adobe and they referred me back to the technote
above, which I had already tried.
One last bit of info. I can't create new sites, but I can
edit web pages in my existing sites. However, I cannot change the
configuration of the website in the Manage Sites area (i.e. I can't
push the Edit button).
Has anyone had this problem? Any help would be appreciated. I
have hit a brick wall on this one and am trying to meet a deadline
on a new website I need to create.
If I can't find a solution quick, I will be an
ex-Dreamweaver user. That saddens me because I really like
Dreamweaver, but I have to perform on my job.

And are you running Skype?

Dreamweaver CS3 enable synchronization

I have recently installed Dreamweaver CS3 and created a site. For this site, I wish to enable synchronization. However, when I go to the the Site Definition window (Click on "Site" from the menu, then "Manage Sites," then select my site and click "Edit," then click the "Advanced" tab, then choose "Remote Info" from the options on the left), the option for "Manage synchronization information" is grayed out. As a result, the "Synchronize" button (the two arrows running in a circle) in the "Files" section is grayed out, as is "Synchronize sitewide" under the "Site" menu.
How do I fix this to enable synchronization?

How is your remote server currently set up?
I could pull out the old iMac and set something up similarly to test it in my CS3 and see if it was a version specific issue. It could also be that you have something wrong in your remote server settings that would make synchronization of files impossible.

Cs 6 Having problems exporting buttons with rollover to dreamweaver

Im trying to export out of fireworks cs6 buttons with rollover and import into dreamweaver cs6. It looks good in dreamweaver until i view it in internet explorer here is what it comes out like.

When you created animated buttons in Fireworks and exported/imported them into Dreamweaver CS3, CS5 all worked well.
This is because CS3 and CS5 automatically added the required preload JavaScript to the hed tag of the document.
In CS6, this is not happening!
That is the major reason that your buttons do not work if you are used to doing it the way that we have for years.
As a test, I added the Head tag code that the old versions of CS generated in Dreamweaver and immediately my buttons worked.
It must be a program error in CS6 and I wonder if Adobe will be producing a fix for this?
The Head code is below:
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

Dreamweaver CS3 Stalling when opening html files

Hello,
I have Dreamweaver CS3 running Mac OS X 10.5.2 on a new Mac
Pro, and have had no problems until now. All of a sudden,
Dreamweaver hangs for between 5 and 10 minutes when opening various
HTML files. Once the files are open, generally it's fine, without
any delays or other problems.
The files are email newsletters, with some of the images
hosted on a remote server, and some hosted locally on my computer.
The only difference I can think of is that I installed Fireworks
and Contribute yesterday, but I don't know if this is related.
Does anyone have any ideas what the problem could be, or if
there is anything I can do to solve it?
Many thanks in advance, D.

I also work with Dreamweaver CS3 running Mac OS X 10.5.2 on a
new Mac Pro
and have had no end of grief... just need to glance at it and
it will hang...
Now I have read the following:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb401608&sliceId=1
with a last updated of 06-18-2007 (boy people work fast
around here)
Have tried all the suggestions listed there... and some
more... even reinstalled Dreamweaver... removed all extensions...
even shifted some of our files from the server to the local
machine... still hangs... used IP nos in FTP addresses, Rosetta
mode (that is ugly), removed splash screen, stopped images being
viewed from Internet, reset config files etc etc
I'm not really bleating at Adobe, as CS3 was out long before
Leopard... or is it the Intel based Mac Pro? ...I really don't
care... I just want a service pack from someone that will fix this
nonsense. I have seen many forum threads from all over with people
complaining about this issue.
We also had a you-beaut Mac server installed for our local
files (also running Leopard) and our PCs could not lock/unlock
files (again people pleading for fixes from all around the world).
Now this was a real pain when working in a team environment with
Dreamweaver. Answer to this... install Tiger on the server and all
came good again.
The mess we have had with Leopard and Dreamweaver far
outstrips Vista issues on PCs... on that note... also we run a new
HP PC... CS3 products are running like a dream on that machine.
Even an old PC P4 266 we have chugs (OK slowly) with all CS3 Design
Premium.
So back in 06-18-2007 Adobe admits there is a problem with
the new Macs running Leopard and Dreamweaver... we even had our
local Mac folk admit there are problems (that was like getting
blood out of stone for that admittance)
We have lost a tremendous amount of productive hours over
these issues... can someone from Adobe please communicate with
Mac/Apple over these issues... or is it a case of "it is not our
problem, they need to come up with a solution..."

How do I download and saves html files off my website to store and save using Dreamweaver CS3?

How do I download and saves html files off my website to store and save using Dreamweaver CS3?
I need to save all files from web and store onto a drive to reupload to a new domain name. I use Dreamweaver CS3.

First define your Local Site folder in Dreamweaver. DW will use this folder to store your site files.
Go to Manage Sites > New or Edit site. See screenshots.
Servers: Enter your remote server's log-in details. When complete, hit TEST to see if the connection is working. If all is well, hit SAVE.
From the Files Panel (F8), click on Remote Server to show the files that are currently there. Click the green Down Arrow to GET files from remote server to your local site folder.

CF8 + Dreamweaver CS3 - Unable to access Coldfusion Enhancements

So here's the deal. I recently upgraded to both CF8 and
Creative Suite CS3 (woo!) and wanted to use the CF Login Wizard
included as part of the Coldfusion enhancements. Despite having set
up my sites using CF as the testing server, the enhancements
weren't unlocked.
I checked the Dreamweaver / livedocs help for more on the
subject and
found
this article saying that the enhancements can only be unlocked if
you have CF set as your testing server.. Ok . . . and what if
you did that (and have always done that) and it still doesn't work?
All of my software is fully patched, too.
Is the problem that Dreamweaver CS3 doesn't recognize CF8 and
is therefore not unlocking the enhancements? Are there any
work-arounds? I've spent over an hour checking forums and different
websites without any success. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks
in advance.

Your question is a little vague. In order to assist you, one
must know what environment you are in. Assuming that you are using
a local computer, using windows (non NT), and setting up cf8
developer edition in order to have a coldfusion virtual server to
test webs on:
You must make sure IIS is turned OFF. Clear the internet
information services box from the windows add/remove programs >
add/remove windows components screen.
When you install Coldfusion, make sure you use the default
settings when clicking through the setup and remember your
coldfusion password. The default setting for localhost port is 8500
Add coldfusion options to dreamweaver using adobe exchange.
Most important parts: Move any website you are trying to
access into the c:\coldfusion8\wwwroot\ folder.
Edit your site in dreamweaver throught the site > manage
sites > edit > advanced tab
on the Local Info Tab type in:
Local Root Folder = C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\yoursitesname
Image Folder = C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\yoursitesname\images
http://localhost:8500/yoursitesname/
on the Remote Host tab:
check the tab Local/Network
type C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\yoursitesname\
on the Testing Site tab:
choose Coldfusion > Local/Network
Testing Server folder = C:\ColdFusion8\wwwroot\yoursitesname\
URL Prefix =
http://localhost:8500/yoursitesname/
You can't just point to http://localhost/ as you would using,
say, wamp5.
Once I did this I was able to use everything fine.
