Site search limitations when using Spry Widgets

Currently evaluating search tools to work with Spry
accordion, tabbed panels and so on. Apparently NONE of them do.
This is a big problem. Our site uses mostly Dreamweaver spry
widgets.
I have tested the very highly rated zoom Search from WrenSoft
and also expect problems with Google Search and Atomz (based on web
research I have done).
If one searches for a word residing in one of the spry tabbed
panels,accordians (there could be many layers on a single page of
course), site search engines correctly take you to the page but
naturally does not open the correct tabbed panel (Zoom Search
doesn't understand DW code of course). Just presents you with the
default panel. User would have to dig through all panels on that
page to find the text. Our users need these nice interfaces. This
is reality. Also some of the Java script in Wrensoft that
highlights search words conflicts with existing Java script within
Dreamweaver. I've worked around some of it but the core issue is
the landing on the page and opening the correct tab. The question
is can anyone suggest a search engine tool that will work with
Dreamweaver Spry widgets or suggest something else. This is a huge
disincentive to use Spry. Perhaps build pages without Spry to
specifically go to after search? Sound like a lot of work.
Thanks

This is not an issue specific to Spry, it's an issue with
other JavaScript solutions that show and hide content, and it is
also an issue if CSS is used show and hide content.
If you have a way to obtain the search terms from the search
engine page, then you might be able to handle this (based upon your
description, the WrenSoft JavaScript finds that info out), but then
you'd also have to have a search engine built within your page that
will search through the page and figure out what tab the searched
term(s) are on, and then show that tab, but then what happens when
you have terms on multiple tabs in a tab group? You'll have to
determine which search terms are more important than other terms.
There is code available that will allow you to open specific
tabs using the showPanel method. Check out the API for the Tabbed
panel:
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/articles/data_api/index.html
And perhaps take a look at the code for this page (check in
the linked JavaScript file):
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/tabbedpanels/tabbed_panel_unobtrusive.htm
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/samples/tabbedpanels/tp_unobtrusive.js
As the Spry code is namespaced to specifically prevent
conflicts with other JavaScript code, it would be good to know what
those conflicts are so that others can be aware of them to try to
prevent them in their pages.

Unable to open https sites. can open when using firefox in safe mode.

Mozilla Firefox has been an exceptional browser, however in the last update I have experienced problems when trying to open https sites. They will not open and then time out. I do not have this problem when using Internet explorer. I have contacted customer service at the problem sites, and they have said other customers have also experienced this problem. I have gone into options and have changed various settings to see if this would solve the problem. It didn't, your response would be appreciated.. Please note if I use firefox in safe mode I can access these sites? My E-mail as follows: [email protected]

Did you perhaps install an extension to open sites with https
# Type '''about:config''' into the location bar and press "Enter"
# Use Find ("Ctrl+F") to look for '''https'''
One such extension is "HTTPS-Everywhere"
As you probably know Firefox Safe Mode disables extensions and some preferences.

How to optimise the intermedia search query when using contains?

HI there,
I have a query to search my database in two tables on eight columns. So that I have eight indexes which are in a different tablespace. Now I have written a query like
select * from table1,table2 where
contains(col1,'wordlist1', 1)>0 and
contains(col2,'wordlist2', 2)>0 and
contains(col8,'wordlist2', 8)>0 ;
When I tried to execute this query, my databae is getting very very slow. As soon as I started the database its working fine, with in five munites of continuous checking, the database going to be slow. So
How can I optimise my query? Is there any better way to search the database using intermedia?
Any help or any sites list on intermedia searching utilities, other than the Oracle documentation is thankful.
waiting...
khaleel

Thank you Thomas,
I need some more from you...
If I have 8 tables for 8 columns, then how do i proceed?
Also could u tell me some query optimization techniques while working with intermedia text.
Thanks you once again,
waiting...
Khaleel Hi Khaleel,
I think this depends on your data model (relationship between the tables) and how you like to search later.
The optimization begins also with the create index statement (memory clause and storage clause).
If you like me to help I need more information about your hardware, os, datamodel and what kind of searches you will have later.
Cheers,
Thomas

Site Definition Requirements to use Spry

What do my site definitions need to be set at to use Spry. I am using both DW 4 & 5.
Thanks

Thank you Murray,
Now a bit more detail. I currently manage a site that has been around for a long time. When I try to use spry accordian within that site (in a new or existing shtml document), the accordian features don't work properly (panel tabs and content are not distinguishable - just a list, and he tabs do not expand). If I save an existing or create a new shtml page to my desktop, and add spry accordian there, then save back to my original site, no problem. Adobe tech support told me that it was a problem with my "definitions" file. Any clues to what my problem is?
Best Regards....

How to use H1, h3, h4 etc when using Spry Tabbed Panels?

Hi folks,
I am using Spry Tabbed Panels 2 on my site as it's the only way I know to direct visitors to particular tabs with links.
Unfortunately I can't use any of my header tags because H2 is dedicated to the Spry tabs, and for some reason has also taken "ownership" o all H tags.
Is there another way to mark my headings accordingly without having them turn into tabs?
My site is at www.qtnz.co.nz/activities
Thanks in advance for advice,
Jo

Why is my published site not operational when using Firefox or IE?

The original problem I experienced had to do with the fact that my published site's navigation bar was totally missing on each page and replaced with a "period" as described by the following thread... http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9899999&#9899999
The weird thing is that this problem only exists when using IE or Firefox on a PC (at work). Site is 100% operational using Safari on a Mac (at home).
Thinking my iWeb files were corrupt, I uninstalled and reinstalled iWeb '08. After doing so, I republished my site. The good news: the nav bar is now present on each page and operational. The bad news: my photo pages and blog page have zero content other than the header banner and nav bar. Again, this problem only exists when accessing the published site using IE or Firefox on a PC. The site is fully operational and all photos/blog entries present when accessing the site using Safari on my Mac.
What gives? Did a recent iWeb update (intended for iWeb 09 users or intel-based macs) corrupt my iWeb '08 on my PowerBook G4?

Please note that Java and Javascript are not related. iWeb uses a lot
of Javascript, not Java. There may be some issues with the Javascript
generated by iWeb -- I don't know. If it seems to work for someone
and not for someone else then it is an issue at the browser end, not
the website end. Each browser may not be handling the Javascript in
exactly the same way. (You gotta love standards.)

Missing Search Field when using 3.1 Create App Wizard ?

Hi
2 points which look like bugs to me;
1 - In all previous versions whenever I used the create app wizard to build up a list of pages, reports always included the 'search across any varchar field' funtionality. This seems to have disappeared when using the Classic form of reports. It is obviously there if you use an Interactive report.
2 - Again when using the Create App wizard, if I use the Classic form (in order to be able to also 'Generate Analysis Pages') these do get built, but not linked in any way (tab, list region, button etc) to any other pages. I can link them myself, but I am demonstrating APEX here and it doesn't look so good....
Can someone just quickly confirm I am not going mad here ?
Jules

Hi Jules,
You're not going mad! I've reviewed the behaviour of the Search field and the Analysis Pages link using releases 3.0.1 and 3.1.1, and there is a difference in behaviour between the two versions.
Classic Reports generated via the Create Application Wizard in 3.1.1 should have a Search text field above the report region, however this field is missing. I've logged bug 7185486 for this issue. Classic Report&Forms generated via the Create Application Wizard, with the "Include Analysis Pages" option selected, are missing a link to the Analysis pages in 3.1.1. I've logged bug 7185486 for this issue. I've updated both bugs with a workaround. A fix for these issues will be available in a future release. Thanks for bringing these two issues to our attention.

Hilary

Managed custom properties at site collection level when used as refiner returns no value in search result web part

I have created certain crawled properties and mapped them to the OOB managed properties( refineable active ) in search schema at site collection level and tried to use them as refiner in the search
site at farm level but it returns no value.
But when i use the same crawled property and map it to a service level OOB metadata property ( refineable active ) and use it in search as refiner it returns result , Can you help as to why this difference is there.
What steps should i do so that site level refiners also work in the enterprise search
Thanks in advance

Hi Dextar,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to create a site level refiner in SharePoint 2013.
Here is a detailed blog you can refer to:
http://blogs.technet.com/b/tothesharepoint/archive/2013/11/11/how-to-add-refiners-to-your-search-results-page-for-sharepoint-2013.aspx
Be aware that any changes in the manage property required full crawl.

Adding a search bar when using Muse and Business Catalyst

Hello and greetings,
I am creating a site with Adobe muse and Business Catalyst integration for blogs and ecommerce. I know you can add a search bar using this tutorial from Muse Themes. However, will it search everything created between both Muse and Business Catalyst, or will it only search for Muse created content if inserted in Muse?
Does anyone know?

Hello,
When you create a search option in a Business Catalyst site, it searches everyting in the site, all th contents of the site that is. So, whatever the content of the site is, it will be indexed for searching purposes, provided you used the BC search bar.
Cheers

No search results when using custom list search

Hi,
I've built a custom list in SharePoint Online , which was supposed to be a new tracker. It was a combination of 3 different DBs. I combined the data in excel, scrubbed it and synced the data into my sharepoint list using Access. The question: Why
don't I have any entries showing when I use the seach box within my list? It comes up with nothing found? I don't have SharePoint Admin rights, I'm just a site owner. Which elements should I look into first to make sure that my entries are found? Any help
will be greatly appreciated. Thank You.

Hi WSBR.Darius,
After you added data into the custom list, if you want to search the items, you also need to run a crawl for your content source.
However, for SharePoint 2013 Online, continuous crawls are enabled in SharePoint Online, with crawl frequencies managed by Microsoft. You need to wait for finishing continuous crawl.
More information about Search feature in SharePoint Online:
https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj819291.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
In addition, as this issue is about SharePoint 2013 online, I suggest you create a new thread on Office 365 forum, more experts will assist you with SharePoint Online.

Error message when using Spry Data set with XML

Hi,
I have what i see as a big problem, might just be me being
dumm, but here we go.
When I try to use the feature of spry XML Data Set and insert
spry table I get error message when trying it in IE 7.
There are even a problem when I use fireworks automated slide
show function, where you can choose to use the Spry/XML gallery
feature.
The error message I get everytime (incl the auto gallery in
fireworks) is:
The tag: "html" doesn't have an attribute: "xmlns:spry" in
currently active versions.[XHTML 1.0 transitional]
The tag: "div" doesn't have an attribute: "spry:region" in
currently active versions.[XHTML 1.0 transitional]
The tag: "th" doesn't have an attribute: "spry:sort" in
currently active versions.[XHTML 1.0 transitional]
and so on.
What´s wrong?!

Hello barvid,
Ok, let's take each problem step by step:
1. The first error you see in the browser: " Exception while
loading ..." normally appears when you try to load files that are
not permitted by the browser security model. This means the XML
file you try to load is located on a different server than your
HTML which is not allowed. The browser is not permitting to load
any files that are not in the same domain as the current page
because of the complex security risks. You'll have to either get
the XML file from its original location and save it in your website
or use a proxy on your web server that should request that file
from the external server and send it to the browser as an XML from
the same domain as the HTML origin.
1.2 The "Exception while loading ..." error you see is a
generic error and my previous advise is based on my experience. In
case this is not your scenario you'll have to open the SpryData.js
and around line 112 you'll see the following code:
Spry.Debug.reportError("Exception caught while loading " +
url + ": " + e);
Please change this line with the following line of code:
Spry.Debug.reportError("Exception caught while loading " +
url + ": " + (e.message?e.message:e));
to obtain a more verbose error message that may clarify the
reasons of your errors.
2. The problems you describe are not browser errors but they
are w3c validation errors. At this point the XHTML standard allows
every application that define custom namespace attributes to also
link a DTD to the page so the page to continue to be valid.
Unfortunately at this point this feature is not correctly supported
by the FF and IE so we wrote an articles about how you should
link
the Spry DTD to your page so the validator understand the
custom attributes Spry use. You'll find inside the full description
of the problems and all the technical details you'll need to know
to solve this issue.
Regards,
Cristian

I have loaded the new Flash version into Firfox several times, but none of my sites recognize it when using Firefox. It works fine on all other browsers, but I would prefer to use Firfox if this problem can be solved.

I use Firefox 4.0.1 on a Mac running Os X10.5.8. When I try to run Facebook or other sites that are heavy users of Flash I get a message that the new version of Flash must be loaded. I have loaded the latest version several times, but still get the message and these sites will not run on Firefox. The sites run fine with Safari or Chrome but I prefer to use Firefox if it can be made to run these sites. Thank you for any suggestions you have to help fix this problem.

Apparently it's related to the Firefox plug in.
This isn't exactly a solution but more of a way to avoid opening PDFs with Firefox's plug in.
1. Highlight "Tools" from the Menu Bar in the top left of the screen (or click "Options" if using the Firefox Compact Menu)
2. Select to "Options
3. Select "Applications"
4. Look for "Adobe Acrobat Document" under Content Type and to the right under Action select "Use Adobe Reader (default)" instead of the using Adobe Acrobat in Firefox
5. Open a test PDF. It should open in it's own window now.
Again, not a complete solution but something that'll at least let you scroll with PDFs open.

Muse crashes when using youtube widget?

I am aware that this question has been asked before. But the answer provided does not solve the problem. I am using Muse 2014.1 and it seems that the problem with the YouTube widget is still there. It crashes when (1) I try to create a youtube gallery including it in a composite widget, and (2) it crashes also when I use it as a standalone widget. Any thoughts? Similar problem also with the vimeo widget -- Muse cannot create thumbnail.

I've received the initial file and am investigating. Please send the additional files. Please also send the MuseLog.txt file from your Documents folder. It should contain a bit more information about each error you've encountered.
This initial file appears to have a fairly involved menu that's severely corrupted. I'm attempting to surgically remove it from the file but internally many many small objects appear to be involved.
Do you recall anything unusual that may have occured while working with a menu today? The corrupt objects all appear to have been created between 10:30 am and 6:30 pm today your time. If you're seeing this in other files, did those files start as copies of this file or with objects copied and pasted from this file, or are they completely independent?

Duplicate messages in search results (when using Smart Mailboxes, etc)

I've recently started using Search Folders more and more in Mail.app
I've encountered this very annoying bug/feature, where duplicate messages show up in a search (inside Mail). The duplicate messages are showing up multiple times (once, for each Smart Mailbox they reside in) as well as their physical Mailbox, as well as "All Mail".
The lowdown:
Mac OS X Leopard (10.5.4 Build 9E17)
Dual 1.25 GHz PowerPC G4 -----(shut up! it still rocks w/my multiple 23'' apple displays)
2GB RAM
Mail.app Version 3.3 (926.1/926)
This feature/bug makes it VERY difficult to find things when I'm forced to sift through at least 3 copies of any message that appears in Smart Mailboxes.
Should I stop using Smart Mailboxes because this is a deliberate feature?
Any suggestions or thoughts would be GREATLY appreciated.
In a search, I think that a better way to display the multiple locations (through Smart Mailboxes, etc) that a mailbox "appears" would be to add something to the header section of a message, below everything else, or off to the right, which would indicate the Original (physical) folder a message exists in, as well as it's locations via Search Folders. This would at least eliminate the problem where they're showing up as two, three, or more COPIES within a search.
Thanks,
Jackson

Hi Christiaan !
I understand your problem. Could you set your IMAP account to avoid multiple simultaneous sessions?? maybe if there is only one session allowed per user or per time, then parallel XI threads will not be able to start downloading the messages.
If you cannot use a longer poll interval, then you could develop an adapter module for the Mail sender adapter that could be used to verify if the current mail is just being downloaded by other thread. This adapter module could check the unique mail data (date/time + subject + etc.) against a local table.
Regards,
Matias.
PD: please award points if helpful.
