Script errors in Contribute CS3

I created a site recently that uses code from Particletree
for a Lightbox. (
http://particletree.com/features/lightbox-gone-wild/)
When I browse those lightbox pages in Contribute, it throws
an IE warning about a JS error and asks me if I want to debug. I
have debugging turned off in IE, but Contribute must not be using
my settings. Is there way to tell IE in Contribute to not display
those messages?

Do you get a box appear with heading "Internet Explorer
Script Error"
"An error has occurred on this page."
Line
Character
Error
Code
URL
Do you want to continue running scripts on this page?"
Yes/No"
I GET THE ABOVE AND CAN'T REMOVE IT WHEN TRYING TO EDIT
WEBPAGES.

Script Error in Contribute 3

I am currently working in an outdated version of Contribute
(version 3) and everytime I open our website to edit, I immediately
receive an "Internet Explorer Script Error" box saying "An error
has occurred running the scripts on this page. Do you want to
continue running the scripts on this page?" It doesn't matter if I
click yes or no, the box continually pops up and I can't get rid of
it.
Help!

I have the same problem in Contribute CS3 4.1 just downloaded
demo package connected to a web site via SFTP.
IE reports a script error on line 2 char 1:
{!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN" "
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
{html xmlns="
http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
{head>
... {'s used in post to disable HTML
The script runs fine outside Contribute in IE and other
browsers.
If we say OK the rest of scripting seems fine.
Is there something wrong with the HTML? Contribute?

Keep getting java script errors in DW CS3

I have been using Dreamweaver CS3 and had not had problems up to last month or so. Now I keep getting Java errors and java script errors whenever i try to put a file to my site or even on some task boxes that have undefined in the command box instead of the normal command. I am wondering if downloading product again could help but i worry about licensing problem. It seems like there is no support for CS3 Dreamweaver.
I resent the fact i may have to upgrade to Dreamweaver CS5. IF I do can I just upgrade Dreamweaver and not the other programs as part of the web design suite? My last upgrade was the CS3 web design suite.
Gary

Thanks for the suggestion, I followed the links and instructions and still have same problem. Very frustrating as I cannot get any phone support, actually i was told Dreamweaver CS3 is not being supported anymore, and I was directed to this forum.
Kind of makes me not like Adobe and I am going to search for another web building program. Once I calm down I may consider just upgrading to CS 5 Dreamweaver. Do I have to upgrade the entire Web Design suite or can I just upgrade Dreamweaver?
Another option is to try and reinstall but I worry I can run into licensing problems (I think I ran into this before as destop and laptop crashed and had to reinstall).

Java Script Error in downloading CS3 Master Collection

I just bought a new MacBook Pro and I went to download my CS3 Master Collection. In the middle of downloading Disc 1 I got a kernel telling my to push the power button until the computer shuts off and turn it on again. Then when I tried to redownload Disc 1 it gives me an error message. "Java Script Error and says to download using the original media, but I AM using the ORIGINAL MEDIA. Anyone ever have this problem? I already tried pulling out the partial download from applications but it did not help. I cannot use my CS3 Master Collection now unless I figure out how to fix this problem.

clear your adobe.com cookies or use a different browser or dl from prodesigntools.com
to dl from prodesigntools.com:
if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here: Download Adobe CS4 and CS3 Free Trials Here (incl. After Effects) | ProDesignTools
and activate with your serial number.
if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies.
the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com).
failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

Getting Permission error in Contribute CS3

This is going into the 3rd week of being down due to lack of support from Adobe.
Our contribute server is set up to use active directory to validate the login. That works fine.
It fails when trying to validate the FTP loging to the webserver. I have it set that everyone shares the same FTP login.
This was working fine for about a year and then we started getting this error:
[Your permissions on this website have been revoked and you cannot edit pages on this website]
The known login and password work successfully in other software from that server.
We've ruled out the firewall. (packet sniffing shows no traffic from the server)
We've ruled out the antivirus software on the server. (turned it off and problem persist)
We checked the PSAPI.DLL . (there wasn't one in the contibute directory, copied sys32 one there)
We deleted the contribute.xml file from the webserver _mm folder (no difference)
I CANNOT login as ADMINISTRATOR.
I would like to know what files to remove (without uninstalling) so we can start from scratch.
Thanks, Jim

We just moved our website to a SFTP server and I am having the exact same problems. This is incredibly frustrating. I am going to try the the numeric URL and see if that helps. If no, I will ask everyone to install CS4. Thanks for the help!

Adobe Contribute CS3 Connection Error

I am trying to use Adobe Contribute CS3 Version 3.1 to connect our web server. I can use WS_FTP and WinSCP to connect to it fine. Our web server is running under CentOS 5.x. When I try to connect using the connection wizard in Contribute, I receving the following error:
Contribute cannot verify your connection information.
/tmp
Please contact your administrator for assistance.
I have tried both FTP and SFTP. Again, I can login, navigate to /tmp and upload, download, and delete files fine using WinSCP. Can someone let me know what Contribute is trying to do to verify the connection? Is there a log file? Any help is appreciated.

When I first tried to connect to our web server, I received a similar error. What worked for me was getting rid of the folder designation when trying to connect in Contribute (in your case /tmp) and allowing users to have permissions to access all folders on the web server. I create Contribute roles to limit the users to specific folders.
I hope that helps.

Cannot edit with contribute 5.5: script error

I too get a script error. Nothing has chanaged, the site has worked with various versions of Contribute for over 5 years. The javascript had not changed so it must have been ignoring any ambiguity until now. I checked the site in Mozilla/Firefox debugger and with extended checking on it gave warnings like "this variable might not always return a value".
So what has changed? My machine is now using IE11 - one posting implies that Contribute gets services from IE. Is this correct? Could IE11 be causing the issues please?
Many thanks
Owain

Is this a site-wide error or has it only happened on a page or two?
I asked because one time we DID have a few pages that contained an errant class tag that would give a similar error but whenever it's been site-wide, the other option clears it.

Javascript errors when formating text and images in Contribute CS3

I'm using Contribute CS3 on Vista, I insert an image inside a
paragraph tag with text then align the image
ie the source code looks like this:
<img src="..." alt="" align="left"/>some
text
I change the text in the paragraph to bold
Source code example: <img src="..." alt=""
align="left"/>some text
I will get the following error messages:
1 This error appears 2 times:
"While executing DW_Text_CSS_Style canAcceptCommand in
ccText_Styles.htm, a JavaScript error occurred."
2 This error appears 2 times:
"While executing DW_Text_Bold canAcceptCommand in
Text_Style.htm, a JavaScript error occurred."
3 This error appears 3 times:
"While executing DW_Text_Italic canAcceptCommand in
Text_Style.htm, a JavaScript error occurred."
4 Next all the styles and formatting options are greyed out
but I can still publish or discard.
To be able to apply the styles and formatting in Contribute
CS3 I now need to close the application and reopen it again and be
careful not to reproduce the error.
I've also tried renaming the Configuration folder under
c:\Users\myusername\appData\Local\Adobe\Contribute CS3\ but it
hasn't worked.
We've reproduced this error on 3 similar machines in our
office all running cs3 but the bug doesn't occur when performing
the same steps in Contribute 3 or dreamweaver CS3 which is running
side by side on these machines.

It might be trying to pull the image from a different
location than the image is currently stored in. Try to move the
image file to a different folder and then load.

Getting "Script Error" message in Contribute 6.5

What's causing this and how do I fix?

Possibly the website uses Java script and there is an error in this script.
You can do two things:
1. Best, is to find the error in the script or let someone do it for you, and repair the script.
2. Second best, is to go to the advanced setting of IE and disable the display of script-errors. To disable the Script error please watch the video linked :- How To Stop Internet Explorer Script Error Messages - YouTube

Script Error after making changes

First, I am not a website designer. I own a website and have
been making minor (text) changes using Contribute since I didn't
need to know html. I started a couple of years ago just using the
trial and never had any problems with it, but about a month ago
bought it...CS3.
After sitting down and making some changes, I published and
then got:
Script Error
Line: 17
Char: 1
Error: Object required
Code: 0
URL;
http://www.dirty-dog.com/contact/
I've looked at the source code, found line 17, but have no
idea what I'm supposed to do. I think this is an easy fix, right?
Can someone explain in "plain english" what I need to do?
Also, one day I somehow fixed it...just by moving stuff
around on the page. I also made some changes to other pages,
thought they were published (looked at all of them), but when I
went back yesterday, all the changes were gone?!? How is that
possible??? I'm going to try to paste the code here....

This is the contents of my log4j.xml, its under WEB-INF/lib

Can't insert text into web page plus script error message

I'm using CS3 and, on a fairly regular basis, when I am either pasting or inserting content (usually a newsletter of 500-1000 words), I get a message saying something like I can't insert text in this area. I definitely can insert text in the area as I have done it tons of times before. I sometimes have to cut and past a doc line by line to get it to insert. Very frustrating!
Also, just recently, I've been getting a script error message, "An error has occurred in the script of this page" followed by Line: 992, Char: 106, Error: Unterminated String Constant, followed by the question: Do you want to continue running scripts on this page? I click Yes and everything seems to work fine.
Help on either would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You might want to make sure you are trying to copy plain text. It's possible that if you are copying from a Word document or another Web site that you are bringing along extra unseen code it doesn't like. Try copying into Notepad first and then copying from Notepad into Contribute. Not sure if that's the problem or not, but that's what came to my head first.
I used to get an error that sounds similar (however it's not reproducing the error for me right now) to your error. It was because some of my users had javascript menus on their page that Contribute didn't like. However, if worked fine when you clicked yes and it was fine once it was published. So if you are running a script that's probably why and I wouldn't worry too much about it as long as you can continue working and the page displays to your users correctly once published. It's just annoying.
Hope that helps. Good luck.

Very Slow and Script Errors

Contribute 6.5 is very slow to publish new content to our site www.mrii.ie, even bringing up a page for editing is slow. So far I have:
Tested the the FTP settings using passive and active connections.
Using an external FTP program, downloading from the site is very quick 2. I checked all the file permissions on the server and they are correct. In fact Contribute will publish the changes eventually, just very slowly prior to the actual upload which seems pretty quick.
I also used a plain page with a small amount of text and again the pre-processing seems slow.
I removed the temporary sites and configuration folders and still no change.
I created a new connection.
As an aside, how do I disable script errors in the Contribute browser window?

OK, found it. This fixed my performance issue.

Script error when installing creative suite 4

I've been trying to work this one out for days.
I uninstalled the creative suite to see if it would help download dreamweaver(I've since given up on dreamweaver for the time being). So when I tried to re-install creative suite an error message popped up right after the components page when I click next.
Internet Explorer Script Error

It makes no difference whether I click yes or no. On the next page it freezes at 'preparing to install'. This has happened everytime.
Urgent help needed!

Hi dear Experts,
I URGENTLY need your HELP!
I got the same script error message and don't know how to solve it ....after 3 days of searching and trying.
Due to a system crash I reinstalled the same Win7x64 Ultimate (=> clean image, incl. SP1 and all updates, drivers etc) on the completely same computer hardware. But still the same package CS4 Design Premium refuses to get reinstalled again.
BUT, I can not install CS4 Design Premium (Western Version), even though I have the original CD’s. It shows after checking the system profile and let me enter the license code and choose the software component to be installed, suddenly a window pops up saying exactly the message of above. I also tried to install as test version....
         An error has occured in the script on this page
         Line: 1879
          Do I want to continue run this script? (yes/no)
Either way, the system starts with the next screen, but stops working at all. Nothing happens.
So I downloaded the files from
http://prodesigntools.com/download-adobe-cs4-and-cs3-free-trials-here.html
and tried the same with the download. After unpacking to a temp file and starting “SETUP.EXE” the system does a system profile check for about 75% and then stops …simply does not do anything anymore.….for ages. Ok, another trial brought me further but only to the script error.
Note: any other Software including Adobe software, like: Lightroom 3, PS Elements 9, Acrobat Reader …. etc do not have any problems with installation.
What did I do to help myself:
- I tried again recopy the clean Win7x64 boot image and tried again... same result
- used the cleaner tools http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs4clean.html , but actually it does not offer the cleaning tool for CS4 but for CS6, but still I managed it successfully, no impact on the installation process of CS4
- I deinstalled any other adobe products, including Flash player, shockwave player , air, Reader, ...what ever Adobe was the product I deinstalled .... no impact
- I tried to install the package in Windows protected mode => does not even start the installation.
- I tried a new user (administrator rights) and .... same ****
Does anyone has an idea how to solve this problem?
... and no, to buy an upgrade is not an option for me.... then I take the hard way and change to CorelDraw Graphics Suite. I paid my full license and the CS4 is doing what I need. It is already very hard to swallow that CS4 is not support the very young CS4 (and I don't mean improvement, just to keep investment alive) ... So no option!
Hardware:
ASUS mainboard, Intel Pentium D90, RAM 8GB, Sapphire HD6950 Radeo AMD Graphic Card, ...but nothing has change since previous working installation.
I appreciate any help and thank you in advance for looking into this.
Best regards
Georg

I want MACROMEDIA Contribute CS3

I bought for my client a copy of Contribute CS3. He's
currently using Macromedia Contribute 3, one month demo. He likes
it, so I want to make it official. It's a small package for a small
nice programm (30MB in size). When I ordered Adobe Contribute CS3
the package was 300MB!!! What is happening ??
So I installed Adobe Contribute CS3 on his system, which took
a lot of time 45min. or so. But after the install I got Adobe
Bridge CS3 WHY?, Adobe Assets WHY?, Adobe Scripting WHY?, Adobe
version cue WHY? etc. etc. etc.
Why o why do I need a program like mDNSResponder.exe only
needed for I-tunes.!!!!
I DON'T need those ADOBE PAYLOADS. I only need what\ I bought
for and that is Adobe Contribute CS3. Please GIVE me a CLEAN
INSTALL. Where is the good old support of Macromedia.!!!! Even
UNINSTALL CS3 took half an hour.
There is NO option to only install Contribute CS3. It's ALL
or NOTHING
It's realy a BAD Adobe experience !!!!!!
