State of iWeb replacement options...other ideas?

Like many others, I've been searching for an iWeb replacement.  Here's my next findings:
Sandvox - way too dumbed down (can't even set page widith).
RapidWeaver - not WYSIWYG (editing is separate from layout), can't modify templates easily.
Muse - best candidate, but still in beta (and that subscription model....)
Freeway Pro/Express - WYSIWYG but not free layout (i.e. can't put an image where you want it - it flows with the text) - still requires knowledge of HTML, tables, etc.
Dreamweaver - heavy duty, not remotely free layout, requires HTML knowledge.
Flux - Dreamweaver done right, but still requires knowledge of HTML layout, and doesn't do free layout.
In other words, there's no decent iWeb replacement out there right now that I can find.  Here's what 'decent' means in my mind:
1) Able to publish to any server
2) True WYSIWYG (edit and preview together)
3) Able to do basic site formatting (like page width) without hand-editing CSS (or breaking open app bundles)
4) Able to do drag/drop placement of images and text without futzing with tables, etc (i.e. free layout).
Maybe in sum, what I'm looking for is an iWeb that generates good code :-).
Have I missed any options?

I have played with a bunch of different iWeb replacement programs. I have a product brochure that I am transferring to a web page and I have tried it in just about all of the packages you mentioned (just not dreamweaver or Muse). In Sandvox and Rapidweaver, I gave up; I could not get the programs to display what I wanted. Kind of a shame because the interface seems very nice otherwise. I was pretty convinced that Flux was the best I was going to get.  Flux is overall good and gives a lot of flexibility. It is not as difficult to learn to be productive as it might seem given its easy access to the HTML code being generated. As discussed above, putting stuff in div elements and walking them around the site is pretty easy to do. I have tried to get fancy with a few things, but each time, I got twisted to the point that my project became un-workable. I can accept that this is because I am not a code guy, but then again, I am also looking for something that helps me avoid code as much as possible. I was disappointed that after I got my site organized in Flux the way I wanted it, I could not get it to display correctly in either Firefox or Safari. Not sure what I did wrong, but was not about to start over. I am sure I can get there with Flux, but I think they still have some work to do before the program is really a viable option for non-developer / weekend designer types like me.
I was very surprised how much I like Freeway. I think this is the way to go. I have been playing with the pro version and I can drag photos directly in and place them anywhere without any trouble. I can mask (or crop) easily with drag and drop simplicity too. It is not too bad getting into the tables when I need to to modify page sizes or HTML text details. Right now, I am pretty enamored by Freeway as a replacement. I think it is very well done and I was able to generate my brochure  very quickly without ever using the program before. I should give credit to Flux for some of that. After the time I put in with it, I picked up a little bit about styles and site organization that helped me understand better what I was doing in Freeway.
As a benchmark, it took me about 3 hrs to create my page in Flux (but again, it did not publish well in the two browsers) and about 45 min in Freeway from a cold start (and the page published fine). Sandvox and Rapidweaver Did Not Finish because I could not get the layout I wanted. I will try Muse as well as the standard version of Freeway to see how those compare.
For reference, I created my page in iWeb in 20 min. I have no idea what the code looked like, but it published as expected and seemed fine for my purposes. I too will miss that program.

  • Why doesn't the replace option of JavaScript's window.open method work with FireFox 3 or 4?

    The photo html files on the Fanac Fan History project's website are now setup to be displayed properly when JavaScript is disabled and reformatted by a php script when JavaScript is enabled. The reformatting adds some features and positions each photo's caption and credits based on the width of the photo and the browser's page width. This worked well except that when a photo page was accessed the browser's back button wouldn't work properly. This was because I had failed to include the replace option in my windows.open statement. The statement now reads fileWindow = window.open(fileURL, "_self", "", true); and this has cured the problem with IE and the other browsers but it still doesn't work with FireFox.
    PS: You need to add "Always" to "This happened".

    We're sorry to hear that your Firefox seems to be crashing when you open it. Please perform the following steps to give us a crash report ID that helps us find out more about the cause of the crash.
    #Press the following shortcut to get a Run window: [Windows] + [R]. This should bring up a window that contains a text field.
    #In that text field, enter %APPDATA% and press Enter. An explorer window should open.
    #From that explorer window, double-click on the ''Mozilla'' folder, then double-click on ''Firefox'' and then on ''Crash reports''. Double-click on ''submitted''.
    #Now, you should see a list of files that contain reports. Go to ''View'' > ''Arrange Icons by'' > ''Modified'' to get the most recent files at the top of the window.

  • Repair vs replace option when MBR is probably bad?

    I could use some assistance getting the Thinkvantage & F11 buttons working  again.  Fn and Thinkvantage buttons work correctly when booted into Windows as does the R&R software, but will not go into the recovery partition when booting the machine.
    The blue Thinkvantage button will only show a "Startup Interrupt Menu" with three options: pressing ESC to resume startup normally, F1 to enter the BIOS or F12 to load the boot menu.
    I ran the MBR repair floppy  (the CD ISO I found reported errors on download & burn with 2 different programs), but it said that the MBR might not be from Lenovo and did apparently did nothing.  Should I try the replace option instead of repair?  What will that do and will it affect my disk partitions?
    I did repartition the C drive into multiple C, D, & E drives, but did not change or move the service partition which I can see in disk management.    This was all working until I booted the machine with an old drive in the SATA ultrabay.  Windows went wacko getting drive letters confused and kind of merging the boot from both drives.  I got that fixed and the preboot environment is all thats left to resolve.
    Thanks a lot

    Everyone is different, and sometimes people have sentimental attachments to systems that override what makes economic sense to most people... Most techs I know use a 50% threshold. If repairing is going to cost more than 50% of a new system, it's probably not worth fixing.
    USUALLY in these cases systems are 2-3 years old or more, so people can at least take comfort in the fact that they're getting a better overall system. In your case, you don't have that, so the threshold for repair vs replace should maybe be more around 75%. But from some of the liquid damaged systems I've seen, and estimates I've written up... I don't think you'll have that big of an issue making a decision. Bare minimum they'll probably have to replace the logic board. There's also a good chance the display is damaged, and replacing the battery after liquid damage is generally a good idea, just to be safe. There's a good chance the repair costs would exceed the cost of a new system.
    And for the record, you did about all you could given the circumstances. The damage was done the moment the liquid came in contact with the circuitry. There's really nothing you can do with liquid spills except clean things up as best you can and hope for the best.

  • How to use read statement on a select options

    Hi all,
    I am trying to read the all the values on user selection screen select options.
    I have an internal table loaded with data.
    So while looping this internal table, I need to check the table certain tank field (lgort) against the select options tank values entered by user.
    It is fine when user uses the multiple values on the select options since I use the "READ" statement on the select options and get the matching values.
    Example: when user uses the multiple value selection on a select-options to enter values A554 and A555
    The select-options table will be:
    sign   option    low         high
    I          EQ       A554
    I          EQ       A555
    LOOP AT gt_output_location INTO gw_output.
      READ TABLE s_lgort INTO gw_lgort WITH KEY low = gw_output-lgort.
        IF sy-subrc = 0.
        * append row to another table.
        ENDIF.
    ENDLOOP.
    Problem:
    Example: when user uses range on a select-options to enter values A554 and A555
    sign   option    low         high
    I          BT      A554       A555
    The read statement can only get matching value A554.  
    LOOP AT gt_output_location INTO gw_output.

    Anyone have any idea on this?? Thanks!!

  • WRVS4400N Replacement Options

    Hi, I purchased a WRVS4400N Router from NewEgg it was semi-DOA. It didnt turn on right away and after a few hours of plugging it in and unplugging it I got it to come on. I believe the board is bad however it did start working so I just went with that as I couldn't go without the router. Anyways I no longer have the original packaging so NewEgg wont take it back. Do I have any replacement options with Linksys and can I have them send me out a new one first then I ship them the bad one. I know I can do this with Netgear btu I'm not sure about Linksys. I have a hard enough time getting the basic understanding of what's wrong with it to the foreign tech-support they offer via the phone so I figured I'd come here. Also Linksys if I spell my name out to you and pronounce it please don't mispronounce it and call me Rackey when I told you and spelt it out for you as Ricky.

  • Some of my apps on both my iPad and iPod Touch no longer have sound.  Others still do.  Checked general settings.  Any other ideas?

    Some of my apps on both my iPad and iPod Touch no longer have sound.  Others still do.  I checked general settings.  Any other ideas of how to fix this?

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    Anyone know if there's a way to do easy referrer logs and stats for iWeb sites? I've found StatCounter, but that requires embedding an HTML code into every page, which is tough since you have to go in and re-edit it every time you modify something in iWeb.
    It'd be nice to see who's linking my site and pages and entries since I have such a layrinthine site these days - any suggestions that don't involve the 2-step process of pasting HTML code into each page evry time I edit it?

  • Any other ideas on the reception issue?

    I am wanting to ask if anyone else has any other ideas on fixing the reception issue?
    I just got off the phone with an Apple "Supervisor". He agreed with me that the software update will only correctly display AT&T's signal that I am getting. He agreed that it will NOT remedy the dropped calls that alot of us are now getting with the use of the new iPhone 4. He also agreed that I either need to hold the phone differently or pay extra money either to Apple or to another manufacturer for a case that I have never used on previous iPhones.
    So, I am not going to return my beautiful new iPhone 4, but I do want to find out if anyone else has found anything else to remedy this problem without doing anything listed above. I am not trying to beat a dead horse, but I am tired of dealing with the big corporation that Apple has become. The same corporation that now, only cares about the number of iPhones and "Bumpers" sold as opposed to the customers satisfaction that purchased their iPhones.

    I don't have any problems either, with or without the bumpers on... it would be nice if ATT had mentioned where in particular their network was having the issues... also I've seen a lot of reports from the UK re the reception problems and one carrier's sim card (which is slightly too big and is shorting the antenna) seems to be the culprit in some cases...
    AT&T's statement is below
    "AT&T has come through with a statement on reports the company has been capping upload speeds for iPhone users.
    In a statement we first spotted through D: All Things Digital, AT&T is describing the problem as one pertaining to a software issue.
    AT&T informs that a software defect some Alcatel-Lucent equipment has been crippling 3G HSUPA performance, and says that vendor is working on a repair, though a schedule isn’t forthcoming just right now.
    AT&T and Alcatel-Lucent jointly identified a software defect — triggered under certain conditions – that impacted uplink performance for Laptop Connect and smartphone customers using 3G HSUPA-capable
    wireless devices in markets with Alcatel-Lucent equipment. This impacts less than two percent of our wireless customer base. While Alcatel-Lucent develops the appropriate software fix, we are providing normal 3G uplink speeds and consistent performance for affected customers with HSUPA-capable devices."

  • Database Management Copy Data - Replace Option

    Can anyone provide info on how this works? we are using 9.2.1
    When using database management to copy data, when using the replace option, even if we only pick a few accounts to copy, it is erasing all data in the Target scenario. Does the replace option clear all data by default before copying in the selected data?
    we tried to use the Merge option but apparently that doesn't always work for some reason-could be user error. not sure.
    Thanks
    Wags

    Hey Wags- this is expected functionality of the Replace method. It clears all custom/account data for the load entity/year/period combo prior to do the load. For example, if there is P&L data in entity A in Jan 2010 and you load $500 to it in a Sales account, all the rest of the P&L data will be cleared and you'll just have $500 in the Sales account.
    Here's stuff from the guide:
    Several options are available for loading data into an application. You can merge, replace, or
    accumulate the data into the application. You select one of these options for each load process.
    Note:
    You cannot load calculated data into an application.
    Merge
    Select this option to overwrite the data in the application with the data from the file.
    For each unique point of view that exists in the data file and in the application, the value in the
    data file overwrites the data in the application.
    Note:
    If you have multiple values in the file for the same point of view, the system loads only the value
    for the last entry.
    If you select the Accumulate Within File option in conjunction with the Merge option, the system
    adds all values for the same point of view in the data file, and overwrites the data in the application
    with the total.
    For each unique point of view that is in the data file but does not have a value in the application,
    the value from the data file is loaded into the application.
    Replace
    For each unique combination of scenario, year, period, entity, and value in the data file, the
    system first clears all corresponding values from the application, then loads the value from the
    data file.
    Note:
    If you have multiple values in the file for the same unique combination of dimensions, the system
    loads only the value for the last entry.
    If you select the Accumulate Within File option in conjunction with the Replace option, the
    system clears the value from the application, adds all values for the same point of view in the
    data file, and loads the total.
    You can achieve the same result as using the Replace option with the Accumulate Within File
    option by using the Database Management module. You can organize the data in the file into
    groups based on Scenario, Year, Entity, Value, and Period.
    Use the Clear Data tab in the Database Management module to clear each unique combination
    of these dimensions, selecting all accounts including system accounts. Enter the data manually
    in a data grid, or load or copy the data into the application using the Merge or Accumulate load
    options. When you perform the Clear operation for a period in a subcube, data, cell text, and
    line item detail are cleared, but cell attachments are not cleared.
    Note:
    You may need to create several small files to load a data file using the Replace mode, especially
    if the data is very large or if the file contains ownership data. An error message is displayed if the
    file is too large when you try to load it.
    Replace by Security
    This option enables you to perform a data load in Replace mode even if you do not have access
    to all accounts. When you perform the Clear operation for a period in a subcube, only the cells
    to which you have access are cleared. Data, cell text, and line item detail are cleared, but cell
    attachments are not cleared.
    Accumulate
    For each unique point of view that exists in the data file and in the application, the value from
    the load file is added to the value in the application.
    Note:
    Data for system accounts is not accumulated.
    Accumulate Within File
    You can use the Accumulate Within File option in conjunction with the Merge and Replace
    options. This option accumulates the data in the file first and loads the totals into the application
    based on the load option selected.
    File Contains Ownership Data
    If the file contains ownership data, you must indicate this by selecting File Contains Ownership
    Data. If you do not select this option and the data file contains ownership or shares information,
    an error occurs when you load the file.

  • ACS 5.5 Hardware Replacement option

    I have an existing 2-node, ACS 5.5 cluster (primary plus one secondary) in production running on VMs. I have two new ACS nodes (also on VMs) that I want to install to replace the existing nodes (original VMs weren't built correctly). I have several options to accomplish this but I'm interested in the option to join a secondary to a primary as a hardware replacement.
    There is very little documentation that I can find as to what is actually done to the new node during a "hardware replacement" join. Obviously, the ACS database configuration is replicated, but what about IP address, hostname, etc. - node-specific attributes? I'm going to assume that certificates would NOT be copied over as part of the "hardware replacement" option.
    Has anyone used this option before or know what attributes from the replaced node are copied to the replacement node?

    ACS doesn't replicate certificates. All you can do, export the certificates from the ACS.
    That's why a small number of configuration changes can be  performed on a secondary server while in distributed enviornment, including configuration of the server  certificate, and these changes remain local to the server.
