Template/div problem

Hello,
I'm new to this forum and also to dreamweaver templates.
Thanks in advance for any comments.
Here's my situation: I've established a main.dwt template for
the site banner, navigation, and footer, and other templates for
each of several content areas. These content templates are based on
the main template. The main template has a few editable regions,
but only the "Section Template" region seems to be problematic.
Into the "Section Template" region of the (nested) content
templates, I've inserted html code consisting of a "links" div,
followed by another editable region "Page Content." Then, in the
html files based on these content templates, I insert html into the
"Page Content" region, including two opening divs. The divs close
outside the editable region (in the main template). This seems to
be the problem. Dreamweaver highlights the "Page Content" region
opening and closing tags in yellow, indicating that it is
uneditable. Is there something about div tags needing to close
within an editable region that I'm unaware of? Unfortunately, I
need the footer div to be wrapped in the content div for layout
purposes.
The basic structure of the editable regions on the html file
is shown.
Many thanks for any input.

This is improperly nested HTML -

<div id="content"><div id="text"> page text goes
here

</div> (end of text div)
The  comment would have to
come AFTER the
closing tag for the content div.

Clear div problem

Hello
I am having a problem with a clear div problem with IE7 and the top menu - in FF this site : http://frenzycardgames.com/ looks fine - the menu in IE is gone not too mention the two lines on either side of the the sidebars - if I take teh clear div out the menu goes way up in the upper right coner bu tis fine in IE - but the clear div back .. and the menu is gone in IE but fine in FF
uuuggggg
thanks
R

Start by fixing the code validation errors. The likely culprit is an imbalance in <div> and </div> tags. Once you fix that problem, the clearing division should work as expected in all browsers.

Template url problem in Dreamweaver CS4

Hi there,
Thank you very much for reading this post. I am having a problem with templates in Dreamweaver CS4, I am following the correct procedures to build a template, but when I link the pages together and update the template, the url has not been changed/updated on the child pages.
Here is an example:
Template:
../content/section/pagename.html
Child Page:
/section/pagename.html
Missing out the first part of the link, when the pages are loaded, obviously, they are not going to the correct part of the website
Please, can anybody give me some advice, as this problem is very quickly, driving me mad.
Thank you.
John

I observe this problem too on my Vista x64 machine with CS4
using dual monitors and split code/design views, and have found
others who have this problem by searching Google.
Description of problem: Roughly 50% of the time, when
switching between files (regardless of type) and trying to select a
block of code with my mouse (dragging over some code with the left
button), it appears to work normally (the intended code is
highlighted). However, when then attempting to CTRL-C (cut) or
paste, the selected code instantly changes to a much larger block
of code (usually selecting a specific div block or something). The
cut or pasted code is then the larger (unintended) block of code.
Once the code view selection works for a particular file
(either it worked from the start or I poked at it long enough to
work), it seems to remain working until switching to another file
and then returning.
Also, Dreamweaver CS3 didn't have this problem, so it's CS4
only.
This is a workflow nuisance much like a word-processor
deciding to insert a % character randomly every 10 seconds while
typing.
I found a Google groups thread
here
in which a poster writes that deleting the Dreamweaver
configuration file fixes this temporarily (the problem eventually
shows up again, and you lose all your customizations by doing
this). The posters in this thread also describe the same problem
with other hardware configurations.
My current workaround is to type return then backspace when
dropping in to the code-view of another file--kind of a pain, but
at least predictable. I also tried avoided the issue by: (a)
selecting something in the design view and then selecting something
in the code view, and/or (b) telling Dreamweaver to show the
"element view" (right click in design view, element view, Full),
but this latter action may be superfluous.
I'd be very interested if someone were to post a simple fix
for this problem.
thanks!
JP
PS. David: I've learned a lot from your books. Thanks for
writing them!

Confusion with Template Div and insertion of text

Here's my problem: When editing my template, when inserting text into the center div box (The main one, center column), the text defaults to italics, or it is inserted, indented and bold. I want it to be normal default font, without indentation so I can have all pages be identical. Here is the code and a link, please help:

What version of DW are you using?
Are you aware of the problems that will fall in your lap with pages built using the methods you have used (AP divs for layout and multiple empty <p> tags to locate content on the page)? Also, given this layout, it's not easy to tell which div you are referring to - I assume div#content. Is that correct?
Please give us an example of what you are entering and where you are entering it. And tell us exactly what you see when you enter that content.

Show/Hide Divs Problem in IE6

Hello, and thanks for taking a look at this.
I have inherited a web site which isn't performing very well in IE6, more details later. The setup is as follows:
The website delivers training content. The design is such that there are no scrollbars, all Lesson content is laid out carefully within a 'page' area and the user clicks a Next or Previous button to page through the content.
Each Lesson is a single HTML file which is designed and edited in Dreamweaver CS5. All the Lesson pages are based upon a single Template file which defines the common functionality. The Lesson content is basically a series of Divs, a Div for each 'page' of content and each have a unique id (for example 'page2'). Each Div has a CSS Class which defines the 'display' property. The CSS Classes are as follows:
.hideDiv{
     display:none;
.showDiv{
     display: inline;
Initially the first Div in the Lesson is set to .showDiv and all of the following Divs are set to .hideDiv.
The navigation is designed in Flash and the Next and Previous buttons are situated below the content area. When clicked a Javascript function is called, from a Javascript file referenced by the Lesson HTML page. The javascript function is as follows:
function hideShow(hideDiv, showDiv){
     if(document.getElementById(hideDiv)!=null){
          document.getElementById(hideDiv).className = "hideDiv clear";
     if(document.getElementById(showDiv)!=null){
     document.getElementById(showDiv).className = "showDiv clear";
It has to be said that everything works. There is further code which accounts for reaching the last page or trying to click previous on the first page etc, but this is the core principal.
Our problem is that our users have to use IE6 and when viewing the website in IE6 it is much slower than in say IE8 or Safari etc. We have noticed that as the number of pages (Divs) in a Lesson increases so the performance decreases. Crucially we notice that as you click Next, or previous, the browser Status Bar indicates that all of the images in the Lesson are being downloaded. Every time you click Next or Previous!
If anyone can either assist in preventing all of the images constantly downloading, or suggest an alternative approach to paging through the content I would be extremely grateful.
Regards
Chris

Hello Murray
Thanks for going to the trouble of creating the little test site.
Other browsers appear to load the pages much quicker. This may be because they are able to more inteligently handle our code, I don't know. Safari on our Macs zooms through it.
In IE6 if I open a large Lesson and click next I see, at the bottom of the screen in the Status Bar, "(21 items remaining)" and then "(20 items remaining)" etc. which counts down and then disappears. Interestingly if the next screen happens to display the same image this does not happen, just the message "Done". If the next screen has a different image then the count down from "(21 items remaining)" again as all the linked resources (I presume) are downloaded.
I have opened your site in IE6 (Windows XP Pro) and I don't see the message. However the image is so small that I may not because it is so fast to load.
It may be related to how IE6 handles Temporary Internet Files, I'm not sure.

Pagecontent tag adding footer clear div - problem

I am trying to figure out how to remove the div that the pagecontent tag adds to my website. As you can see here the dark gray box under the product is added by a div labeled footer clear. When I remove that div, the layout problem goes away. Problem is I cannot find where to remove that code inside business catalyst. I am using a .dwt and this is how that area looks in my code inspector,
{tag_pagecontent}
Any ideas? Thanks

Hi duke_shibby,
I'm not sure if I 100% understand what you're saying but did you try editing the Online Shop module template - Overall Layout? I know there is a div footer clear in there by default. You can get to this layout in the back-end by going to
- Site Manager > Module Template > Online Shop > Overall Layout

Dreamweaver template/timeline problem

Hi, someone may have an answer or suggestion to a problem which has occured.
Quite new to DW so forgive my ignorance. I have created a site in DW CS3 using templates. I want to create a piece of animated text in DW, can do it in flash but would prefer to learn DW way. I have used method of creating ap div layer, but have only been able to work this way successfully in blank page. When I insert ap div in template page in editable area. the timeline function remains completely greyed out, it will allow me to insert div however does not allow me to amend/change attributes. Is the ap div/timeline way best way to animate text in DW or has anyone any better suggestion. I’ve uploaded temporary page http://www.design2.ie/test/index.html. Hoping to put 4 pieces of text in right blue panel. Sorry if I’m doing something stupid, appreciate your help.

Hi Kcelsi
I too have found that you cannot create a template in DW and then upload it to BC easily, as you are experiencing, you need to create a blank template in BC first, download it to DW, work on it and re-upload.
Somehow the templates folder in the BC site is not available to add files to in DW as easily as the stylesheets folder. So I download the templates folder from BC in DW.
To create a template for a web site I do the following in
1. In BC back end go to the templates area, and create a blank template.
2. Set up the site in DW, and then download the template folder from BC. You will then have the blank tempate you created in BC on your hard drive and can work on it and re-upload to BC. BC will then see it as a template file and it will be available to apply to pages. Notice that it is a .html file
3. Start a blank template file in DW, and copy the code. The blank BC template you downloaded won't have any of the code you need like the HTML declaration at the top in <head> etc.
4. Copy the tag_pagecontent tag from the BC template you downloaded, and put it into Notepad. (BC won't recognise your file as a template if it does not have this tag)
5. Copy all the code from the blank DW template you just created, and paste it into the code view of your BC template. Save the file, remembering to save as .html like it was in BC.
6. Put the tag_pagecontent tag from Notepad into the part of the template where you want your page content to be. This area is what you can see when editing web pages in BC.
5. Go on creating your template in DW, linking it to the website stylesheet you create. Make sure the site stylesheet is in a folder called Stylesheets.
6. Upload the Stylesheets folder and Templates folder to BC when you are ready.
Hope this makes sense and is helpful!

Interior Design Template slider problem

Can anyone help me with the Interior design template? I edited the title tag and suddenly the sliders decided to stack on top of each other. I figured that the home page template must be screwed up so I created a new site with the template. I copied and pasted the Home page code into a new Page Template on the site and changed the module numbers. But the sliders are still stacking on each other.
Here's the page: feetforlife.com/index2.html
I need help FAST if anyone can help.

Problem solved thanks to Curtiss Prickett. See his message to me below to solve the issue. Thanks Curtiss!!
What I think may have happened is that the BC default editor may have stripped a critical piece of data from the UL that is required for the orbit slider. The only way to fix it would be to upload the fixed template file and upload via Dreamweaver, or you can open the "Develop" tab and open the "Home Page.html" file in the template folder. The slider code should look like the code below paying attention to the "data-orbit" on the UL:
<div class="slideshow-wrapper touch" id="hero">
    <div class="preloader"></div>
    <ul data-orbit>
        {module_webapps,....,a} <---- (your module number)
    </ul>
</div>
Hope this works for you. - Curtiss

Report Manager - Template Conversion Problems Excel 2003/2007

Hello,
We are having an issue in which templates created using excel 2003 are showing incorrectly formatted outputs in excel 2007. We have performed testing by creating new templates in Excel 2007 and most formatting is correct as long as we only make minimal changes to the initial template. Once the template is changed to a further extent the formatting is correct but no actual output shows, just the token defaults. Patches have been applied for both the issue of incorrect formatting caused by Excel's smartcutandpaste and also the problem with the token defaults showing instead of actual Oracle data. We would prefer not to have to recreate the templates as this would be a lengthy process. To me it seems as something was modified that affected the existing templates (other than the Generic FSG Template, which works fine), but does not affect newly created templates. Other methods of viewing the data work fine (pdf and html).
Any ideas?

The client is testing now and believes the report output is what she needs and will not need to delete the columns afterall, but for my curiosty, any ideas?

Table/div problem with IE

I am building a 'planner' in a table and it looks okay in
Firefox but not in IE. It's a work in progress but IE doesn't allow
the table to align properly and help would be appreciated.
Also, the table and left menu reside in a div (container2)
which I set at 1900px width. Is there another way to determine its
size or do I just add the components (menu plus centrebody).
The page is located at

Disregard - fixed the problem.

I'm not seeing the problem in IE7. Perhaps if you add the
missing closing
</div> tags and fix the other errors, it will help.
Enter your URL into this page to see the errors:

With the page as it is now, I don't think you need to specify
the width at
all. I didn't see any difference in FF when I deleted that
line in your CSS,
anyway.

Layout Template - Alignment Problem

Hi,
I´m using EP6 Version 6.0.2.4.6 and made some Layout-Templates for my Pages. It works fine, but the alignment of the Ivies in it doesn´t match.
A short Example:
<%@ taglib uri="prt:taglib:com.sap.portal.reserved.layout.TagLibHtmlb" prefix="hbj" %>
<%@ taglib uri="prt:taglib:com.sap.portal.reserved.layout.TagLibLayout" prefix="lyt" %>
<lyt:template>
    <hbj:content id="myContext" >
        <hbj:page title="Portal Page">
       <hbj:gridLayout id="GridLayout1" rowSize="2" columnSize="2" debugMode="TRUE">
                <hbj:gridLayoutCell width="50%" rowIndex="1" columnIndex="1" horizontalAlignment="LEFT" verticalAlignment="top">
                    <lyt:container id="column1" />
                </hbj:gridLayoutCell>
                <hbj:gridLayoutCell width="50%" rowIndex="1" columnIndex="2" horizontalAlignment="LEFT" verticalAlignment="top">
                    <lyt:container id="column2" />
                </hbj:gridLayoutCell>
                <hbj:gridLayoutCell width="50%" rowIndex="2" columnIndex="1" horizontalAlignment="LEFT" verticalAlignment="top">
                    <lyt:container id="column3" />
                </hbj:gridLayoutCell>
                <hbj:gridLayoutCell width="50%" rowIndex="2" columnIndex="2" horizontalAlignment="LEFT" verticalAlignment="top">
                    <lyt:container id="column4" />
                </hbj:gridLayoutCell>
            </hbj:gridLayout>
        </hbj:page>
    </hbj:content>
</lyt:template>
When I look to a page with this Template, all my Iviews on it have an alignment on the right bottom corner of the cells. Is there no way to correct this? I tried a normal html-table but with the same result. Does anyone have a clue for this problem?
Regards,
Marcus

Hi Marcus,
the JSP looks fine for me.
Probably you know http://help.sap.com/saphelp_ep60sp2/helpdata/en/d5/1b083e7623445ae10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
The only thing where differences to the original layouts could exist seems to be the layout description within portalapp.xml, especially (and only?) the designClass value (prtlPageConR (right), prtlPageConL (left), prtlPageConM (mid) and prtlPageConF (full)). These css classes are defined within the themes, for example the most used will be under irj/root/portalapps/com.sap.portal.themes.lafservice/themes/portal/sap_standard/prtl_std/prtl_std_ie6.css, but they only define the margin and padding...
Maybe you should copy a standard layout (from irj/root/WEB-INF/portal/portalapps/com.sap.portal.layouts.default) and start with this under new names; if they behave normal, start to manipulate them...
Hope it helps
Detlev
PS: For better reading you can surround code / indentions with [ code ] and [/ code ] (without spaces). So checking the syntax would be much easier.

Template title problem

hi i have designed a dreamweaver template which has a main
content editable region and another region further up which i want
to include the title in. Therefore this piece of code i made as
follows:
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="../admin/Template/style.css" media="screen" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="description" content="MING Knowledgebase -
Administration" />

<title>Untitled Document</title>

</head>
In the page which I want to apply the template to I have
this:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<link href="templates/style.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" />
<title> CMS: Edit Article</title>
</head>
Now the problem is that when I try to apply the template I
get this result in the merged file
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="Template/style.css" media="screen" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type"
content="text/html;charset=utf-8" />
<meta name="description" content="MING Knowledgebase -
Administration" />

<link href="templates/style.css" rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css" />

</head>
For some reason dreamweavver is picking up my link tag and
not the title tag. If I remove this link tag from the document and
try to apply the template again the doctitle editable region wont
show up as a possible place to place content in. What is the
problem? thanks

It's a bad practice to apply templates to pages that have
existing content.
To be absolutely sure, the very best way is to spawn a blank
page from the
template, and copy/paste from the existing page. Then save
the new page
over the old one.

IE (6 and 8) and different page template Body problem

Hi - is that normal that IE don't recognize page template body? I have a structure like this:
page template body 1:
column 1 | column 2
page template body 2:
column 1
everything work fine in firefox and chrome (I'll check also safari and opera) but not in IE.
In IE (6 or 8) I have page template body 2 on the right of page template body 1 (not bottom the region).
Anyone know how to fix this? of course in the easiest way :)

I have had this issue often, and I finally figured out a workaround:
You have to place a hidden REGION right where the breaking/newline (or whatever is happening with the in the template) isn't occuring properly.
This will force a break.
So I created a new region:
Type: HTMLText
Template: Button Region without Title
Region Source:
<br>
& nbsp ;(or something similar)
Condition (optional): Client Browser is Internet Explorer
See this post for more details:
Problems displaying regions in desired Template positions

AP DIV problems

Hi, im inserting a AP DIV onto a page, but the posistion I
put it moves an inch to the left when I save and view the page.
For example;
http://www.ldnwrestling.com/index2.html
Now when I save the page, the AP DIV is in the black box, and
the wrestler is as well. Yet when I save and view the page, the
Wrestler and I assume the AP DIV move an inch to the left. This is
driving me nuts! Can anyone help me and tell me what im doing
wrong?
Code is also atached for whole webpage.
Many thanks

> Alas, it did not help me.
We would have to see what you did to know what you did
incorrectly. Can you
show us the page where you made these changes?

Solaris 10 branded zone VM Template Install Problem

Hi,
I don't seem to be able to install the template on a system that uses an aggregate NIC (aggr0). The template install script is looking for physical NICs, which it can't use since the NICs are assigned to the aggregate link.
Any suggestions for a clean solution or workaround?
Thanks

On line 1 of /tmp/zcfg.final:
SYSsolaris10: No such zone configured
Problem configuring the zone10 zone, exitingThis indicates one of two things:
1. You are not running Solaris 11. You may be running Solaris 11 Express, where that template zone name would have been SUNWsolaris10 rather than SYSsolaris10.
2. You do not have the solaris10 brand installed. You can fix that with:
# pkg install pkg:/system/zones/brand/brand-solaris10In either case, it would probably be better for the script that wraps the archive to check before trying to install the zone to give a more helpful error message.
rm: Cannot remove any directory in the path of the current working directory
//bootimage.7Oayzm/bootstrap
rm: Unable to remove directory //bootimage.7Oayzm: Directory not emptyThis seems to be an unrelated bug in the error handling routines in the script that wraps the archive. I'll raise this thread to the attention of those that assemble the VM Templates.
