Searching one web page?

I looked at the phone and I checked the new manual at http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPhone_UserGuide.pdf , but I cannot find any way to search a particular web page.
Did I check well, or should this be possible? Is one still with 3.0 limited to google searches, which may lead to loooong pages, where one does not know where a particular search term appeared?

I was really hoping for this ability, too... it seems bizarre that you can search the entire phone, but you can not search for a term within a web page. Hopefully it will be there in 3.1.

Showing applets depending upon user input in one web page

hi, I have three applets. I want to create a webpage, put three buttons (or other interactions) on it. If button one is clicked, applet one is shown. If button two is clicked, applet two is shown. I want this to happen in one web page only and one applet at a time depending on user input. Is there a way to do it? Do I need to use javascript? I am new to javascript ,but if you can point me to relevant javascript topics, i am willing to learn it. Thanks.

There are a couple of ways I can think of off the bat...
1) Create an IFrame that the Applet will be displayed in. The button you press submits a form whose target is the IFrame and whose action is a page with the correct Applet.
2) Actually load all 3 Applets on the page and hide them all in a invisible divs. The button calls a javascript function that unhides a specific div (and hides all the others to be sure only one is displayed at a time).
3) Uber-javascript AJAX like control that when the button is pushed makes a request to a page that returns the applet tag which the javascript control then inserts into the page at the proper location.
I would toss up between 1 & 2.
For code, search Google for important key words (like "form target iframe", or "javascript make divs invisible").

How do I have more than one web page on at a time?

I can only watch or use one web page at a time. I f I try to get on something else it will knock me out of what I was doing on the other page.

reboot in safemode and repeat the same behavior you did previously. If it works then it's likely an addon issue or extension causing your problem.
'''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

HAVE ONE WEB PAGE OPEN AND SUDDENLY ANOTHER WEB PAGE OPENS

I can have one web page open and suddenly another web page will pop up. Why? It doesn't happen all the time. Like I said suddenly.

Another thing you can try doing is scanning for Malware:
Download and Install MalwareBytes Anti-Malware, run a full Scan. [http://www.malwarebytes.org/ http://www.malwarebytes.org/]
Download and Run TDSSKiller [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363]
Download and Install Microsoft Security Essentials [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/products/security-essentials] (not an official endorsement, but I personally recommend MSE as an awesome permanent anti-virus)
Double check for all Windows Updates.
What is the website that opens up? Is it always the same, always different, one of a few, etc?

Only one web pages is slow - on another pc on same lan it opens fast

Hi,
Am running Firefox 29.0.1 on a Windows 7 pc. One particular web pages takes over a minute to load. On the same LAN I have another pc running Firefox 29.0 on Ubuntu (Linux) and it opens the same web page in a matter of seconds.
On the Windows 7 pc I have cleared the cache, cleared cookies but still the one page gives problems.
Web pages is http://www.stuff.co.nz
Any ideas to fix the problem would be very much appreciated.

[[Firefox is slow - How to make it faster]]
# Open the History on the computer that is slow.
# Search for all of the pages with that domain name.
# Delete them
# Reload the page.
Reload the webpage while bypassing the cache using '''one''' of the following steps:
*Hold down the ''Shift'' key and click the ''Reload'' button with a left click.
OR
*Press ''Ctrl'' + ''F5'' or ''Ctrl'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Windows and Linux)
*Press ''Command'' + ''Shift'' + ''R'' (Mac)
Let us know if this solves the issues you are having.

How to open only one web page at a time?

I used to have it set so when I opened a new web page, the previous one closed. Now, nothing closes automatically and I have about 50 pages open that I have to close. How do I set it so that only one page opens at a time?

HI Janice,
You can use a keyboard shortcut to close all windows in Safari. CommandShiftW.
To close one window, Command + W.

In 3.6.8,One web page turns into 10 or more reloaded pages of the same in my history, how to fix?

This happens mainly when I'm in a MSN web page. For instance, I'll click on a link in the news section, and I'll notice that once the page is loaded the loading circle is still spinning...and spinning...and spinning. When I go to use the Back button, nothing happens. I look at the history and 10 copies and counting of that same page are listed there.
Please advise as to how to fix. It's kind of annoying.
Thanks!

"Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
See [[Basic Troubleshooting#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Yes, when wiewing a webpage in Safari tap on the Search bar at the top. This should brng up the Keyboard, at the top of the Keyboard should be a bar to search in the Webpage you are in, labeled "Find in Page" Type your search there.

Safari "error" specfic to ONE web page! Please help...

I have a new iMAC desktop and about a week ago I started getting this error message when I tried to access one of my favorite web sites. The error message says something like, "the string is too long...." and basically it keeps giving me that same message when I try any of the sites on this web page.
I have removed the cookie (the first part of the string) and it might let me in just once, then when I switch to another post (I read forums) it immediately sends the same error message, with yet another string...like the strings are pages and pages of letters and numbers. (Sorry I'm not a computer geek and I don't know the proper name of the string).
I downloaded Firefox and it works perfectly! BUT...I really like Safari and I just paid a good amount for this beautiful computer...and now my favorite web site won't work.
Can anyone help me please?? I'm on my office Dell right now so I can't give you the exact error message...
I appreciate anything anyone can do.
Susan

You know I really don't clear my cache and history (or cookies) very often at all. I've been using a Dell PC for many years now and because I'm retiring soon I wanted something safer and more user friendly (I am not really into the inner workings of a computer) for me to use. So I bought a brand new iMAC (I used a MAC years ago and loved it) for my personal use at home. I can't tell you how happy I am now that I am back to a MAC!!! But, as you can tell I'm really not up to speed on what I should be doing yet (especially with the new browser Safari).
Anyway I'll have to look at the tutorial and hopefully this eariler problem won't come back. I certainly hope so! Right now I have a lot of help here at work, but I'll be on my own in a few months. Gulp!
Thanks for you help,
Susan

More than one web page on .Mac?

I already have a personal web page set up, but would like to set up a page for my Rotary Club. I don't want everyone to have to go thru my personal photos, etc just to see Club calendars and upcoming events. Can I have more than one site if I have storage room available?

rcfgunkie,
Welcome to the discussions.
Navigate to your Web/Sites folder on your iDisk using the Go menu in Finder, and following this path:
Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb
In the Sites folder on the iDisk, and above/next to the iWeb folder, you will see an index.html file. Using the Finder again, create a new folder on your desktop and name it iWebIndexFile. Drag the index.html file from the iDisk Site folder into this new folder. It will be copied there. You will use this file again later to bring your short .Mac url back to your original site, as it is now, should you decide to.
Close iWeb.
Create a new folder on your desktop, and name it for the new site.
Navigate to your Domain file, following this path.
While holding down the option key, drag this Domain file into the new folder. It will be copied there. Create another folder on the desktop, and name it BackUpDomain. Option-drag the Domain file again, into the BackUpDomain folder. Now place this backup folder in your Documents folder. Close the Finder window, and open the folder which is named for the new site. Double-click on the Domain file inside.
iWeb will launch, and you will see your site as you have always seen it. The first thing you need to do is rename this site in the Site Organizer, giving it the name of your new site. Otherwise, it will overwrite the existing site on the iDisk when you publish it. Now delete the pages you do not want to keep, and create your new Welcome/Home page with the appropriate links in the navigation menu for this "new" site. You may also need to rename your pages. File/Publish to .Mac.
You now have two separate Domain files, containing two separate sites. When you launch iWeb, the application will open the last site that you edited. Create another folder, and name it for the original site. Navigate back to the path you used earlier for your Domain file, and again, holding down the option key, drag this Domain file into the new folder which has the name of your original site. Now you have two folders on your Desktop, each containing a individual Domain file, for your two sites. (You also have a backup of your original Domain file containing your original site, in your Documents Folder.) Create one more folder, name it Domains, and place both of these "Site" folders inside of this folder for good organization. From now on, to open either of your sites, choose the appropriate Site folder in the Domain folder, open it, and double-click on the Domain file inside. iWeb will open that site for you.
If your short .Mac url is pointing to the "new" site, and you do not wish for it to, navigate back to your Sites folder on your iDisk and replace the index.html file with the one you copied earlier; also, use the copied index.html file to replace the one in the iWeb folder which is next door to the Sites folder. Your short .Mac url will now point back to your original site, and you will access your "new" site using the url web.mac.com/username/iWeb/nameofnewsite.

Add TWO Edge Animations/Stages to ONE web page (without using oam)

Hi All,
This is a bit of a follow on question for those who are adding scalable height/width edge compositions to web pages using the awesome piece of code created by Sarah (http://sarahjustine.com/) and other forum contributors... (attached code below).
My question is: How do I add a second Edge Animate composition to the same page using this method? So it's using "Stage" already... i'm guessing it's a matter of changing it to "Stage_02" etc in the following code? I've tried changing the relevant code but so far I have been unsuccessful in getting it to recognise a second stage.
Any help would be appreciated, many thanks in advance for your time.

On one web page I used to be able to view the 'Virtual Tour', and on another web site, everything opens except the pictures

On this web page ' http://tours.gettwistart.com/public/vtour/display/32481?idx=1 ' I used to be able to view the virtual tour. On this web page ' http://www.theblaze.com/ ' next to each topic the photos which are also click on's do not open. I have to go to Internet Explorer to view these two pages, and, I used to be able to get it all on Firefox.

Both of the sites you mention use FlashPlayer content.
Firefox on Windows is having continuing problems that developers from Flash & Firefox are looking into. It is possible you may need to uninstall the troublesome FlashPlayer 11.3 and install Flash 10.3 or 11.2
Have a look at this article,and any articles linked from it. Note these articles are subject to review and amendment as the situation changes.
