Spry Framework

I'm trying to follow this tutorial
http://www.adobe.com/designcenter/video_workshop/?id=vid0117
step-by-step.
The data comes in fine, everything works except the link
between the master data region and the detail region. When I look
at the source code, there are no onclick event handlers in the
master data region that would change the detail area.
I've tried this in Safari and Firefox and neither work. I'm
using the downloadable sample files. How do I link a master data
region item to the detail?

This is an example of a 'nested' XML file. Spry (for now...)
can only flatten one level of XML files, so it will only see one
instance of 'song'.
To get to all of the songs, you will have to create a second
data set for the set of songs: XPath: /specials/song
When they pick a band, the second data set will update to get
that bands songs.
Check the photo gallery or products demo for an idea. In
those, we have the 'songs' in a separate XML file, but you can see
how we build the dependent datasets.
Hope this helps.

Help with Spry Framework positioning not appearing correctly on pc's

I just created a gallery using the spry framework and finally got it working for me on all the browsers I have on my Mac. The problem is that on my clien'ts pc the gallery div tags end up moving up to the upper left corner and I'm not sure why. They are ap div tags that are supposed to be contained in my main content div and I'm at a lost as to why this is happening. I'm not the best at working directly with code or understanding it fully, usually do most everything with dreamweaver. I appreciate any help that you can give me and thanks for your time.
the site page is here: http://www.montanacraneservice.com/ppcanopylift/ppcanopylift.htm

Do you know what browsers are failing?
Seems to work on FF, IE6 and 8...

Discontinue the Spry Framework

In response to http://blogs.adobe.com/dreamweaver/2012/08/update-on-adobe-spry-framework-availability.htm l#comment-1826
I must express my DEEPEST DISAPPOINTMENT with Adobe for such a dis heartening move to discontiue this framework.
I have been using Adobe Spry Framework from inception and found the capabilities of at least the DataSet Object frameworks to be the most easiet, fast, effective implementation of frameworks when it comes to dealing with data/ external data display and manipulation EVER. It has been the goto framework for almost ALL of my data driven web applications and has proven to me to be BY FAR a superior advantage over using any MVC or another Ajax based framework that I have encountered.
To learn of its discontinuation after years of hope and promise of futher development of the framework with such a huge potential is really heart wrenching. I do hope that someone else will take up the regins to which Adobe has so cowardly let go of and continue to progress this framework into a new aged design specimen that it should be.
I personally though lacking in the extensive knowledge of the frameworks inner workings and expreience in javascript or framework development for that matter...will be one to TRY to develop it as much as I can. But will lend ANY SUPPORT that I can as limited only by my knowledge and experience to futher the success of this framework to any lengths to make it as great as it has always been and could be.
Sincerest Ice.
LONG LIVE SPRY FRAMEWORK

Thank you, Ben. This was the information that I needed.
Alas, I don't follow this forum specifically, although, I do lurk now and then to get answers to specific questions.
Re the shake issue. Gosh, I guess I fixed it and never came back (my apologies) or the whole thing went a different direction. It's been so long.
Thanks, again.

Is Spry Framework discontinued or not?

Last Adobe's message is 30 April 2010, after… nothing to nothing
I have understand ajax/html5 are enemies of the Flash technology but please send us a clear message… Spry is discontinued or not?

Adobe always been a closed company when it comes to releases of products.
The same practise is applied to the Adobe Spry Framework. They did release
Spry 1.7 a while ago, but the developer adoption of this is rather slow. I have been
using Spry 1.7 in production for a few months now. And created a few widgets for it
. It works great, but Spry 1.6.1 is still the shipping version of Dreamweaver.
The Spry team actually consists of Dreamweaver core developers, so there focus
is not only Spry, but also Dreamweaver and the intergration of other libraries in to
Dreamweaver.
Idealy Spry should have been open sourced so developers can submit patches and
speed up the development of framework. But because Spry is also a product of
Dreamweaver this would mean that they are actually "selling" the code. I still have
hopes of this happening in terms of CLA for contributors.
Anyways, I doubt Spry is dead.. They are just having a radio silence

anuj: SpryEffects is in 'demo/includes'. We will be including
effects in our next Spry drop.
Severe: We are working on more widgets. They will be released

Spry framework interoperability with ATLAS

Hi.
I’m trying to use the spry framework with MS ASP.NET
and the ATLAST AJAX framework. I’m trying to port the photo
album demo pages. However when ever I add
<atlas:ScriptManager ID="ScriptManager1" runat="server"
/> tag into the code all the spry:region / spry:repeat tags
doesn’t seem to work. Has anyone observed this behavior
before. Any suggestions are much appreciated. Code sample is shown
below
Thanks

Hi Bhathiya,
We haven't yet done the slightest testing with Spry and

Seeing runat="server" on a client side library makes me
wonder what the final output of the page is.
I will log a bug on this and we can check it out.
Thanks for the info.

Trying to learn Spry Framework Ajax

So I am trying to learn how to use Spry Framwork for Ajax;
which I downloaded from
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/spry/
Does anyone know if this some how plugs into Dreamweaver 8 or
if I wish to use it, "the Photo Gallery to be specific", that I
have to manually manipulate the code to use my photos and then
implement their html into my template?

With DW8, you will have to use the Spry Framework manually.
It's built into
the new Dreamweaver CS3.

Do I need to download the Spry Framework?

I do have Dreamweaver CS4 and it includes the latest Spry ( Spry v1.6). Do I need to download the Spry Framework? Or is everything I need pre installed with DW CS4 ? I watched a Lynda.com video where the instructor downloaded Spry. Will the Spry functions work through DW even if I do not download the actual Spry Framework? Or does the download just give me expanded features?
Thanks Jim K

Hi
The spry framework is built into cs4, and you do not need to download it.
PZ
Some parts of Spry are build in to CS4. Not all functionality is included in DW. For example, the Spry Rating, autoSuggest, slidingpanels are not in DW and can only be found in the full Spry download.
Also other data formats like JSON, nested JSON, nested XML, tsv and csv support is not build in. And last but not least there are allot of Spry utitlies not build in to Dreamweaver. Its save to say that 50% of Spry has been integrated in to DW. The rest of the more advanced functionality can only be found the complete download.

Integrating Spry Framework with SWFObject

I'm trying to incorporate a SWFObject into my Spry
Framework-HTML page. I want to update the
flashvars when the user clicks on a given
ds_RowNumber for the Product Catalog. However, I'm having
trouble passing the
flashvars:
window.document.setVariable("flashVars","data/mp3/frw/2006/playlist.xml"
so.write("flashcontent");
Since this isn't having any effect on flashVars, I'm guessing
I'm not implementing it correctly?
Thanks,
stephenwightman

stephenwightman, are you testing this in IE? There is a
bug/issue with Spry, FlashVars and IE, where FlashVars do not get
passed when a SWF is inside a spry:region. This occurs whether
using SWFObject or the default embeds for your SWF. I have not
heard any thoughts from the Adobe Spry Team on how to get around
this. See some of my previous posts on this:

Spry Framework for Ajax does not work on google chrome

sorry but this forum is for questions about JavaScript inside Acrobat and not general language frameworks. We don't have a discussion topic for Spry.

Spry Framework Ajax IE7 Bug

Hi,
I used Dreamweaver CS3 to load the photo/albums node of an
XML file called photolist.xml - the end result after creating Spry
Master and Detail areas is a page which lets you click on the text
to change the image. Trouble is it works in all browsers except
IE7. I get a massive red error message saying "Exception caught
while loading photolist.xml: [object Error]." Help! How do I get
working in IE7 too?

Hi John,
That error is thrown in 2 specific cases:
1. A spry:region/spry:detailregion attribute has no data set
specified.
or
2. A spry:region/spry:detailregion attribute lists the name
of a data set, but that object does not exist.
Are you delaying the creation of your data sets until some
event has occured? It's hard to tell exactly what is going on
without seeing the context.

Using jQuery plugin with spry framework

I am trying to integrate jQuery countdown plugin to my old spry pages:
http://keith-wood.name/countdown.html
However, it seems that spry kills jQuery plugin.
I am sure the jQuery countdown plugin works well without loading spry js.
Please tell me hot to use both spry and jQuery on the same page.
Thanks

It is quite possible that the two will clash.
But I have a problem in helping you because the page that you quoted does not contain Spry nor is there a Spry.js file.
Please explain what it is that you want to do.

Spry framework for ajax - video example Aquo

I have a problem displaying the xml code which has H1, H2
hard coded. How do i display this without the H1, H2.
If i swap this code for
<script src="../SpryAssets/SpryData.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
for
<script src="../js/SpryData.js"
type="text/javascript"></script> it works but the repeat
region then stops working???
Any ideas

Don know a LOT better than me... but I think that when you
insert a spry table in a master region, it has a checkbox option
that asks if you want it to update a detail region when clicked. If
you check that, whatever data you put in that table will update the
detail region using the same dataset.
If you do that, you can probably look at the code for the
data in the table and see what he is talking about. The spry table
creates it automatically, but you can also hand code links that
update data regions too, which is what he is saying.
Did I get that right Don? ;)

Automating Spry Framework Sliding Panles

I am trying to figure out the best way to automate spry

Try posting at the Web Development / Standards Evangelism forum at MozillaZine. The helpers over there are more knowledgeable about web page development issues with Firefox.
