Shortcut for inserting a library item?

Dear Dreamweaver people,
i am busy inserting a library item (some html that creates a
form) in about 400 pages. Automating this task is probably to
complicated for me, but, hitting this insert button is tyresome as
well. Is there any shortcut possible for this button? I cannot find
a possibility in the editing shortcuts panel.
I am using dreamweaver CS2
Thanks for any help

I wouldn't recommend this. You would be MUCH better off using
server-side
includes instead of a Library item (I can't find a compelling
reason to ever
use Library items, honestly).

Shortcut for Inserting Smileys?

Is there any way I can assign a keyboard shortcut for inserting smileys? Dragging the mouse over, clicking the menu, and choosing the smiley gets a little tedious. Is this possible? Thanks.
AT

Yeah, I noticed that (though thanks very much for pointing it out because I'd forgotten it). I guess I'm more interested in a faster way to insert these. I know, when I used to use AIM, from AOL, typing Ctrl-1 would produce one particular smiley and such was the case with cntrl and the 2-9 keys. This made it very easy to insert them quickly. I was just wondering if that was possible in Ichat, since Command-1 is dedicated to showing or hiding the main ichat screen. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

Inserting a library item on a page using Javascript

Hello,
I have a library with 6 different layouts in it. I need to be able to place these on the page from an external program. I have all my code in place to send commands to Indesign, but I'm not sure how to reference the Library items. Can I reference them by name? As well, I would like my external custom app to be able to list all the library items so that the user can select which one to insert. I'm at a total loss as to how to do this.
I need help with these two things:
1) obtain an array or list of all the items in a particular Library, which is already open.
2) Once I have the list of library items I need to be able to place one or multiple on the page keeping track them so I can place images and text in the appropriate boxes.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated. I'm using Indesign CS3 and my external app is coded in Objective-C on a Mac. I prefer Javascript as I'm very familiar with it as opposed to Applescript.
Thanks for any help provided.

Assuming you have access to the equivalent of doScript, when that is used to run a JavaScript, the final value of the script is returned (coerced to a string? I'm not sure).
Of course, you can always pass information from one place to another by using keyed labels. In my work (I spend most of my time writing scripts for Typefi Publish wherein the same script might get executed at the end of every page as the Typefi Engine composes the document), I often will add a keyed label to the document that passes information from one run of the script to the next. Here's an example (that includes reading the script itself to extract version information from the second line) -- while slightly inefficient, it has the benefit of putting the version info in a defined, easy to find place:
    function registerFirstCall(aDoc, interactive) {
        var scriptFile = getScriptPath();
        var scriptName = scriptFile.name;
        if (aDoc.extractLabel(scriptName) == "" || interactive) {
            scriptFile.open("r");
            var firstLine = scriptFile.readln();
            var secondLine = scriptFile.readln();
            scriptFile.close();
            if (secondLine.indexOf("//VERSION: ") == 0) {
                var msg = secondLine.split("//VERSION: ")[1].split("\n")[0];
            } else {
                var msg = "unknown";
            aDoc.insertLabel(scriptName, "Registered");
            TPSlog(scriptName + " version: " + msg, interactive);
    }// end registerFirstCall
Ah, I see it uses the getScriptPath function, so for completeness, here it is:
    function getScriptPath() {
        // This function returns the path to the active script, even when running ESTK
        try {
            return app.activeScript;
        } catch(e) {
            return File(e.fileName);
        } // end try
    } // end getScriptPath
The TPSlog function either pops up an alert (when working interactively -- usually means during debugging) or adds a log message for the session (that also is managed with a document keyed label). The keyed label in this case is performing the trivial task of recording that the script has previously been run against this document, in which case, it doesn't need to log a message identifying its version info.
Hope this helps.

How can I make a keyboard shortcut for 'insert footnote' in Pages 09?

I do a lot of accademic work and it is incredibly frustrating not to have a shortcut for one of the most frequent tasks i perform in pages. Please can someone help me?

Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts Application Shortcuts > + > Application: Browse to Pages > Menu Title: Footnote > Keyboard Shortcut: hit combination of keys > Add
You will need to restart Pages but should then see it next to your Menu item.

CNTRL D shortcut for inserting transition only works intermittently

I put a clip on the work timeline, cut it in places and position the ends of clips abutting, place the cursor between them and select one or both clips. Control D will work for about 3 events then it stops. Reseting shortcuts to factory does nothing. Clearing the shortcut and re-establishing it does nothing. Shutting down the application and restarting does nothing. The short cut will work 3 or 4 times on an inital instance of Premiere Pro after a fresh system start and then punks out. This is true on the SAME clip, between cuts within the body of the clip, so it isn't about being at the physical end of a clip or not or one type of clip being different from another. AND this is in a sequence with a single layer, no fancy nothin'.
BTW, the font being displayed in Chrom, FF, and IE on this forum is absolutely counterproductive to reading anything. It looks like it's been chewed by aphids.

Check to make sure the track is targeted, and that you're not inadvertantly un-targeting it.

Library item inserts erroneous body tags?!

When inserting a library item that contains xsl: tags, it
adds body tags that aren't in the original library item.
For instance, here's a sample of library item text that
contains xsl: markup:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=utf-8">
<xsl:if test="$language='en'">
<xsl:text>    |    </xsl:text>
<xsl:element name="a">
<xsl:attribute
name="href">SomeFile.html</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:call-template name="getLocaleString">
<xsl:with-param name="key" select="'key'"/>
<xsl:with-param name="lang" select="$locale"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
And here is the result of applying it to an html file:
<!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>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html;
charset=utf-8" />
<title>Untitled Document</title>
</head>
<body>

<body ><body ><xsl:if
test="$language='en'">
<xsl:text>    |    </xsl:text>
<xsl:element name="a">
<xsl:attribute
name="href">SomeFile.html</xsl:attribute>
<xsl:call-template name="getLocaleString">
<xsl:with-param name="key" select="'key'"/>
<xsl:with-param name="lang" select="$locale"/>
</xsl:call-template>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:if>
</body>
</html>
Anybody have a clue on what is going on here and how to stop
it?

Inserting library item modifies code

Hello,
I have some library items that are table rows. When I insert
the library item into my page, it actually rearranges the code on
the page for that table. Any way to have DW stop doing this?

can't make just a row a Library item- it has to have
<table> and </table>
rethink this, or go with SSI or something?

How to use a Spry Menu as a Library item?

Okay, this is my second post; but, with a different title.
I made a Spry menu for my Home Page. I saved it and a logo
together as a library item and placed the library item on a second
page. The links in the menu work when there is no style sheet
attached for the Spry meny and the menu appears just as text; but,
as soon as the .css style sheet for the menu is attached to the
second page, the menu appears correct except the drop down menus do
not work. I tried adding a link to the Spry Java Script file as it
is on the home page; still no luck.
I tried the same with a test file, which I have since
removed, stored at the same folder as the home page; same problem.
How are we suposed to make a workable library item with a
Spry Menu? Surely this is possible, no?
Here are the two pages I am referring to:
Good Page:
http://iculver.com/
Bad Page:
http://iculver.com/pages/AboutUs/Personal_info.html

Apologies - my mistake. You are correct, and my instructions
were
incomplete. That other bit is required too.

The comments 'hide' the scripting from validators and older
browsers, but
it's still recognized as javascript, since the comments occur
INSIDE a
<script> tag.
> these Spry Menus in Libraries easier to use...)
It's not so hard once you get all the pieces together.
1. Create the library item as described.
2. Make sure that each page that is to carry this library
item has the
required links in the head (to the CSS and the js files), AND
in the body.
Why not use a template instead? That way, all of these links
are managed
for you.

Cannot insert second lib item on same page (DW CS3)

Hi, I am asked to build a website with 53 pages. My client, most likely, will come up with changes/desired extra pages in future, so I thought library items would be appropriate for navigation (correct? I am new to lib).
After inserting one library item (vertical menu with roll-over images) in a page, I also want to use this type of nav horizontally at the top of the pages.
However, DW (cs3) does not allow me to do so. This is the message: "Making this change would require changing code that is locked by a template or a translator. The change will be discarded." The parent page is not a template, just an ordinary new html page. I inserted the vertical nav lib into a div.
I understood it should be possible to insert more than one lib item in a page, what can be the problem here?
Thank you very much for any tips, suggestions and help.

function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
You know what? I stopped working with the lib items, because I found out that working with SSI is much easier!
Same here.
I haven't used DW's Templates or Library Items for several years. I used to spend too much time having to find my way around the editables and non-editables. They just got in my way. SSIs are much easier to create and far, far easier to maintain.
function(){return A.apply(null,[this].concat($A(arguments)))}
(Server must be php complient).
Not necessarily.
SSIs can be used on plain HTML pages, PHP, ASP, ASP.NET and ColdFusion pages.
The principle is the same, but the Include code in the parent page is different.
ASP and .NET includes use the same syntax as plain SSI:

ColdFusion
<cfinclude template="/includes/filename.htm">
PHP
<?php require_once('/includes/filename.htm'); ?>

What is the keyboard shortcut for extract page?

There used to be a series of keyboard shortcuts for page manipulation (and other) - using acrobat 9 till recently. Now new to Acrobat XI Pro (Windows 8.1). I can see the shortcuts for insert & delete page but not for extract page (and other). Am I missing something? The keyboard shortcuts are a must for speed and a healthy right wrist.
Thank-you for your time.

There isn't a direct way of doing it, but you can "hack" it using a script. Create a folder-level script with this code:
app.addMenuItem({cName: "MyExtractPages", cUser: "E&xtract Pages", cParent: "Edit",
cExec: "app.execMenuItem(\"ExtractPages\");", cEnable: "event.rc = (event.target!=null)"});
This will add a new menu item to the Edit menu which you could access using the following keyboard shortcut: Alt+E, X

Spry widget menu bar as a library item - problems

I created a spry vertical menu bar and made it a library item. The original works great, however when I insert the library item into its own div tag on another page, the submenus will not pop out, either in DW or the browser view. The div tag is the correct size and I made the z index high enough. Here is the code of the page that works properly:

I understand about having the script and link element that connect my page to the dependent files in the SpryAssets folder in the header and the JavaScript function cal at the bottom on each page. I don't know what else to do - HELP!

Welcome to the Dreamweaver world!
Well, having your index.html page at the top/root level is important, as that is the default page by which people will enter your site.
Having other pages in folders is fine...I do it all the time in order to keep departments or categories of information sorted.
One characteristic of having pages in folders is that the hierarchy of files in folders (perforce) puts them at different depths in the site.
This is not inherently a bad thing! Just one to remain aware of. When you look at your site files in the Files Panel, you can see a graphical representation of those different levels.
But the nature of a library item is that it is identical in all its instances, which is what makes it useful...change it in the library, and it changes site-wide. The down-side of that identity is that when your files are at different depths in the hierarchy, their links back to, say, home (or any other same file) will change depending on the depth. You can see this if you make a link on a page, then drag the page (in the Files Panel) to a different depth...say, into a folder when it started at root level, or vice versa. Check the link, and you will see that it automatically adapted to the new path.
Library items do not do that; they do not change, so some of your links will be 'wrong' when you refer to pages that have different paths than the ones originally set up in the library item... because of the change in hierarchy.
All this is, of course, reliant on your creation of the site in the first place, as defining the root folder's location on your computer gives Dreamweaver a starting point for handling (juggling?) all the location-information for your site's files.

Library Items Quirk

Every time I insert a library item I've created it inserts a
</table> and then generates an open table. How do I make it
stop? I went in and deleted them off of each page, but when I
updated images in my library it went through and reinserted all of
these random table tags again.

> I took out the outer tr and
> td tags and tried inserting it again. This time, no
additional code was

So - you are taking a broken page and breaking it worse in an
attempt to
mask the error? I don't like that solution.
When you validate the *.lbi page (as if you could), it should
validate.
This means that you cannot have any non-terminated or partial
page elements
in the *.lbi file, e.g.,
<tr>
<td>something</td>
</tr>
will not work, nor will
<p>something</p></td>
See what I mean?
Why not show me your library item and I'll tell you if you
are doing it
right?

Can you create a keyboard shortcut to insert a css comment (/* */)in DW?

hello DW knowers!
When writing code i like to use shortcuts for inserting commands.
For instance, to insert a html comment, i created a shortcut in the panel for creating shortcuts (you can do this finding in the shortcuts panel the 'insert' option and then find 'comment').
however, i did not find a way to create this for a css comment (/* */) and i find myself forced to use the coding toolbar to insert this.
I would really like to find a way to avoid this. Ofcoarse i can still type it in manually, or use the css rules panel to temporarely deactivate a rule, but selecting a piece of code and then typing a shortcut would be much easier.
Otherwise a great idea for the next upgrade of DW?
thanks for an answer, if there is a possibility

I use a Logitech G19 keyboard, which allows you to create one keypress shortcuts for virtually any keypress sequence. It has ten extra keys on the left side of the keyboard which you can program however you please (a total of 30 shortcuts). This particular keyboard is kind of expensive ($200) but there are other less expensive keyboards that offer similar capabilities. Think how many times a day you type <p> or how about <a href= . With a keyboard like this, you can do it in one keypress.

Inserting data in Item Cost -Layer Cost Update

Hello experts,
Is there an interface table for inserting data in Item Cost - Layer Cost Updates?
Or can I insert on it directly? Can you provide an example Insert query for this?
Thank you.
Pam

Hi
My understanding is that only Item Types are being picked up by the Actual Cost Process and the others wouldnt be. You should raise an SR to Oracle to confirm the same (as I havent done this for a long time and hence cant be 100% sure). However, if you have already done these then you can run a query to get all this data and use Cost Adjustment as a workaround to load all these values to the items
Hope this helps
