Setting up pages in iweb

creating photo pages in iweb. when i dbl click on a page it changes the page view to a kind of carousel where the user can choose a pic and it then made larger for for more detailed viewing. is there a way of setting up the page in this view as a default?
hope this was somewhat coherent.
thanks

I started setting up a web page with iWeb. Auto play box is checked, but music will not play when page is opened.

I started setting up a web page with IWeb.
Several proplems so far:
1) Auto Play box checked for music, but music does not start when page is opened.
2) Can't get Quicktime "start/stop" slide to start and finish a section within a long piece of music (classical for example). How does one work the slide bar to do this?

Yes the audio file plays on the iWeb page when I click the play button. I even made sure it played both without the “little boxes” that surround the icon (don’t know the technical name for those), and when I click the music icon without the little boxes.
I did note that the iTunes window that appears when I open the Inspector is not highlighted until I click the music icon and those little boxes appear. Then the Start/Stop, Auto Play, Loop, and Show Movie Controller are highlighted — and work properly.
One other thing. I see that the iWeb icon I am working from says “Domain copy.sites2.” Does that have a bearing on anything?

As long as you don't mind doing a little post publish editing of your .js files, it's fairly easy to do. You will find them in this path on your iDisk, using the Go menu in Finder:
Go/iDisk/MyiDisk/Sites/iWeb/Nameofsitefolder/Page_filesFolder/Page.js
Open the .js files for that particular page on your iDisk with any text editor (I like Taco, and it's free) and make the following changes to the script code that controls your movie: (you will find the movie code near the top of the page in the .js file)
Change autoplay="false" to autoplay="true"
Change loop="false" to loop="true"
Changing controller value="true" to controller value="false" will remove the controller from the page entirely. Make these changes in both sets of tags, (object and embed).
Make the changes and just "Save". Clear your browser cache and you should see the changes take effect immediately. Bear in mind you will have to make this modification each time you republish your site. You can also save this modified .js file and replace the republished file with it, as long as no other changes were made to the page in iWeb.

Aperture web gallery - how to link back to main page from iWeb?

Okay, this may be simple, but I can't figure it out.
I created and uploaded a few web pages with iWeb to my dot.Mac account (web.mac.com/f8lee50) just to get a feel for things. I then created a web gallery with Aperture and uploaded it - naturally Aperture generated a URL for the gallery, which I set up as a link on my "Photos from Hawaii" page (the link is the word 'this' in the second paragraph, if you wawnt to look).
Okay, so this gets me from the "photos from Hawaii" page to the gallery, and within the gallery I can jump to the various images etc. But how does one navigate back to the "Photos from Hawaii" page from whence they came? Is there some sort of smart link that can be inserted (by Aperture?) that will send the viewer back to the main homepage? Or are the Aperture galleries essentially dead ends?

Richard, thanks for responding - I'll check that tutorial.
And thank you for the kind words, me100finn. I have not played with any variables as far as layout on the gallery (I did a bunch of stuff with the books, but the web gallery seems far less flexible) so I cannot answer your wuestion about the gray shadows.
Steve, thank you for the additional clarification (and the hint about spaces in URLs) - I guess what this all boils down to is that the web galleries from Aperture are not all that useful when they are meant to be a part of a bigger overall site. I'm not sure of what you meant when you say they have little forward or backward navigation in them - at least you can click on a thumbnail to get to an image, click next or previous or the grid to get back to the thumbnail galery. But, 'twould seem that hand coding HTML pages (the very thing I was hoping to avoid) is the only way to really integrate them. Given that, I gues the better approach will be just to use iWeb to load the images anyway.
Well, folks, thank you all for your answers. Until I do a re-do, I guess the back button is the way to go (which, for the record, I did sorta figure out myself

Can there be an Home/Index page that has links to sub pages in iWeb?

How do you set up a Home page with links to other Photo web pages?
iWeb does a super job creating individual pages full of photos.
But if I want to have a "Directory" page that kicks off the whole site, how do I do that in iWeb?
I want to break up my photo pages into groups like:
Portraiture, Still Life, Life Style etc.

Thanks Will.
Most of my site is created in iWeb. I have been messing around with a iCalendar PHP also, to create a nice calendar for the site.
The Home page is a couple of programs used together.
1. I drew sketches of the little main street.
2. recreated the main Street in a GREAT program called SketchUp. it is the most User Friendly 3D program around and their Website has super tutorials to get you up and running in no time - seriously. Then exported it out to Photoshop as a flattened jpg. (I also did this for the individual buildings for my Banners)
3. In Photoshop, I painted my buildings and gave them some personality.
4. I originally had an Image Map that I created in ImageReady as my Home page, but that doesn't work for iWeb, so I had to use Flash.
5. I made a Flash Movie creating my Buttons and Links and Rollovers (Here you have to Plan some, cause you need to what pages you will have at the end and know the URL to the final pages iWeb produces. It is something like ..sitefolder/sitename/Home.html.
6. Then, I published it as a Quicktime Movie from Flash. You have to Publish as Flash 5 compatible in order to get a quicktime movie. Also, I set up my movie to loop, no controller, and auto play in Flash.
7. Put it on my Home page. (The controller shows up in iWeb, but not in the final Published Site. (I also do not have to manually change the HTML to autoplay "true" and controller "false" on this particular page. I do have to on others though.)
Thanks again Will, for your kind words - I have been working very hard on this site.
Also, don't forget to go to Suzanne's Site 11mystics.com for a lot of information and iWeb tips, tricks, and related links.

How long does one page in iWeb go?

Hi,
I currently have a website up on freewebs.com and now I have my own domain name and am working on making a new site with iWeb and just started using it the other day.
When you are working on a page within iWeb lets say the Welcome page, are you limited to one page or can you keep on going within that page so it scrolls down. Let's say my first page is really 5 pages do I just keep adding stuff to that first page and it will automatically scroll when someone opens it in their browser (provided they click the down arrow)?
What I'm really asking is, is their a limit to how long your first page is? I hope this is making sense here.
S.

I don't think that a page in iWeb is limited in it's length. There maybe a limit that apple has placed on it, but it is well past 6000 pixels. You can change how long your page is by opening the inspector and clicking on the second tab from the left. This will open your "page" dialouge. Edit the length of your page by increasing the number in the "content height" field. About the automatic updating of the length in your page; that does happen, but only when you move certain things. iWeb will not lengthen your page when you keep adding more stuff into it. It will increase the length, however, if you litterally move the position of something that is a default item in your selected template. For instance, iWeb will update the length of your page if you move the position of that default text field (wich is in French or somethinng) beyond the current page's "page length" limitation. You can see more clearly the boundaries wich you've set for yourself by changing temporarily the "browser background" color (also in the "page" dialouge in the inspector.
One other tip: (this is not at all related) Personally I don't like the look or configuration of the links in Apple's provided navigation menu. I choose not to display the nav menu and I use my own. It takes more work - you have to worry about style and all of that in addition to coordinating all those links. so let's say you use a tab configuration like i do. I have five tabs, and I have about 40 pages on my website. That means I had to make 200 links just for my custom nav menu. Coordinating them to make sure each one is correctly configured is another thing. I think it's worth it though. - And the copy and paste technology invented 3 billion years ago has been used more and more by me to complete that task! check it out if you like at DesignNashville.com.
got ?'s email at [email protected] and I'll see what I can do for you.

Wich Character Set is used in iWeb?

My web-server uses utf8unicodeic (default). Symbols like ä, ö, ü or € cannot be displayed on the web-pages, written in iWeb 09 v 3.0.1 (9833). These symbols are essential part of speech and text in Europe, especially in German, these characters are necessary...
Does anybody know which character set is used in iWeb?
Can it be changed in iWeb. Ootherwise I can change the character set of the server - but I have to know where to!
Thanks for your help!

Does anybody know which character set is used in iWeb?
Can it be changed in iWeb.
All iWeb pages are in UTF-8 and this cannot be changed. If your server is really using utf-8, you should not have a problem. It is quite common for servers to force ISO-8859-1 and thus botch iWeb pages. Some fixes for that can be found in the Server Settings section of
http://homepage.mac.com/thgewecke/iwebchars.html
Also some servers cannot handle special characters in page names, even though having them in the text is OK. That requires different fixes.
Another possible problem is when you use an old ftp app for uploading that doesn't do utf-8 right.
If you will provide the url of your page so I can see what is happening, I can perhaps provide better advice.

Adding Background music to welcome page on Iweb.. any ideas? instructions?

looking to add background music to my welcome page on iweb. any easy instructions? thanks daniel malibu

Take a look at my page "source" code for some clues.
Editing published pages is as easy as opening the "raw" html code in TextEdit (preferences set to "plain" text) and applying your edits (copy/paste simple).
But once you edit these pages any changes made by the iWeb application and a new "publish" would remove your hand edited code.
To change what appears in your "Title" would only require you edit that line of code. To add metatags is the same.
The "snippet" part of iWeb 2 is always in the "body" part of the page code. Title and custom icons are part of the "head" tag code. Javascript code could be in even more parts depending on its function.
None of this is for the faint of heart or for those that don't understand the basics of html page code.
Open your published iWeb 2 page with a text editor and edit the "title" tag code to change the displayed "name". To add a custom icon requires you upload a 16X16 image file (the size of the icon in the browser address bar), upload that file to your server and then use that URL in the edited html code for your page. These are part of the "head" tag code.
Hope this helps.

Setting different pages widths in different sections - Pages 5.2

In Pages 5.2, how does one set different page widths (margins) in different sections?

You can't. Margins apply to the entire document.
What you can do is set the margins to their max width and then use left and right indents for the sections you want narrower.

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?

How can I set the page that will open, when I open a new tab, to be the same as the homepage?
An app changed it to some other search engine, before installing the app, I the tab that would open was the homepage I set.
In my case it is Google, and I want my new tabs to open on Google like they did before the installation.
thank you,
Asaf Privman.

You can middle-click or Ctrl left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at one of these extensions:

* New Tab Homepage : https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/

How to set a page template for news detailed view?

Is there a way to set a page template for the detailed view of the news module?
I have a page template setup and added the {module_announcement,,,,,} to the page. When the news item is clicked it always opens the default template - is this how it is designed to work or is there a way I can specify it to use a different page template?
Dave.

Hey Dave, See the image below:

How do I set the Page size default in Adobe Reader using Window 8?

I need to set the page size everytime I go to print from my Adobe Reader in my windows 8. Is there a way to set the page I want letter (8.5 by 11) as a default? So I do not have to do this everytime I print something?

I can't help but wonder why Adobe doesn't respond to this - at this point there are 464 views of this item and still no answer. I have the same problem and it's a big irritation to have to set the duplex mode everytime I want to print!

Can I Set Up a 2nd iWeb Site?

Hi,
I was wondering if you are able to set up a 2nd iWeb Site. My Daughter has a site but I'd like to set one up too for myself. Any help would be great!
Thanks in Advance,
XMTitan

Hi,
if you and your daughter have different accounts on the computer there is no problem in having two sites. Your site will show up on iWeb in your user account and her site will show up on iWeb in her user account. If you want to make a site which is independent from your daughter's site and don't have different user accounts on your computer you just have to have two different Domain files (where iWeb stores its files User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2 ).
If you don't want to have a completely independent site and don't have different user accounts on your computer open iWeb go to File=>New Site
Site=>Index where people choose which site they want to visit your daughter's or yours
Site1=>Your daughter's
Site2=>Yours
you then can publish to the same .Mac account or host.
The only problem that could happen is with publishing two independent sites to the same .Mac account. One site will overwrite (thus delete) the other. That problem is not happening with using two different .Mac accounts or by publishing to two different hosts.
Regards,
Cédric
