Unable to insert .flv Template Child Pages

Unable to insert .flv Flash video in template pages
When you attempt to insert a Flash Video file (.flv) into a
child page created from a Dreamweaver template, you see the
following error message: "Making this change would require changing
code that is locked by a template or a translator. The change will
be discarded."
The Adobe recommended solution: “ 1. Make a parent
template page that already contains the Flash Player detection
code. 2. Insert the Flash Video into the child page created from
the template, without the Flash Player detection code. To do this,
uncheck the "Prompt users to download Flash Player if necessary"
checkbox in the Insert Flash Video dialog box.”
This solution does not work. It doesn’t work because
the checkbox is grayed out - it is impossible to “…
uncheck the "Prompt users to download Flash Player … checkbox
What Can I do?
I want to uncheck that grayed out “Prompt” box.
How can I do that?

I am unable to duplicate what you are describing.
When you go to insert the flv, you Insert/Media/Flash
Video... and the box
is grayed out?
The unchecking of the box solves the problem, why yours is
doing that I dont
understand. I assume you are in an editable region in the
child?

  • Flash Video in template child pages

    I have created templates with editable regions for my
    websites. When I try to insert a Flash video file (.flv) it wants
    to put code in the header region and body region. I have tried
    erasing the editable areas, making the entire header an editable
    area, making the entire site an editable area. I've tried looking
    on Google and the Dreamweaver Developers section (there is a link
    to an answer but the link is broken). I unfortunately only have
    Dreamweaver 8. If this problem is fixed in CS3 I'd be happy to go
    to Kinkos and rent a machine. Any suggestions?
    Thanks!

    Here's how you will have to manage this.
    When you insert a Flash video on the page, several things
    happen -
    1. DW inserts a link to a javascript file in the head of the
    page.
    2. If you elect to check for Flash versions, DW inserts a
    call to that
    javascript in the <body> tag of the page.
    3. DW then inserts a javascript call to the file (in #1) on
    the page at the
    location where the Flash is to appear.
    In a Template child page -
    1. The head region must have an editable region in it, so
    that the link can
    be inserted.
    2. The Flash check call will fail to be written to the body
    tag, since that
    is LOCKED by the template.
    3. The javascript will be written to the body of the page
    where you
    inserted the Flash.
    Thus, 2 of the 3 elements should work fine.
    My suggestion? Do it again, and do not select the check for
    Flash version -
    that should work for you.

  • Can't make comments editable on template child pages

    Is there a way to make comments editable on template child pages. When making editable regions, comments are not included. I need to make comments editable on child pages. How do I do this.
    Thank you,
    Jim

    Open your Template.dwt file.  Add an editable region around your comments section.
    <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="comments" -->
    <p>Comments go inside here...</p>
    <p>Comments go inside here...</p>
    <!-- TemplateEndEditable -->
    Save your template.  Allow DW to update your child pages.

  • Fireworks menu in template child pages

    Hi, I'm redoing my site with templates. I made a pop-up menu
    in Fireworks, and put that in the locked region in a template. I am
    applying that template to some child pages in a few folders under
    the main site folder. The menu was working fine before, but I
    changed the Fireworks menu file, and put that in the template and
    saved it and updated all pages that use that template. After doing
    that, the menu pops up, but the buttons aren't right. They're just
    squares of color instead of the gif buttons that Fireworks will let
    you do. Also, the arrows on the pop-up menus that lead to the sub
    menu aren't there. I think an "x" just shows up instead.
    Does anybody have any suggestions about this? Thanks!

    I read that article. Very interesting..... those turds at
    Crackholemedia..... I also checked out those other links to other
    options. Thanks for those. I was really liking how my menu was
    looking in Fireworks.... Any idea how to make my dropdown buttons
    look like this?:
    http://www.decoy.cc/us/picslivejp.htm
    Any comments on using Flash (or Dreamweaver, or anything else
    without spending money, since I already have these programs
    anyway... the turds...) to make a menu?

  • Unable to insert record in child block

    Dear all,
    I am facing a very strange problem.
    Actually i have a master-detail form where i need to insert master record as well as child records for the corresponding master item.
    For this i have a LOV in master block which populate the master item and execute the coresponding child records.
    so first time when i load the form i select a item from master block through a LOV this time :SYSTEM.BLOCK_STATUS is NEW and i populate a item from LOV then :SYSTEM.BLOCK_STATUS is NEW changed to query and i have inserted a next record in child block pressed F10 and it saved very well.
    But the problem is when i again select another item from master block through LOV and again tried to insert a record in child record this time it won't saved and the very stragly the cusor moved to master item showing the FRM-40600'Record has already been inserted'
    Please help why is it happening ?
    Need yours help.

    But the problem is when i again select another item from master block through LOV and again tried to insert a record in child record this time it won't saved and the very stragly the cusor moved to master item showing the FRM-40600'Record has already been inserted'When you select a new record in the Master block through the LOV, make sure you clear your form before you query the selected record. Forms thinks you are modifying the same master record and not a new record.
    Hope this helps,

  • Problem inserting FLV into template based page DW8

    Error when inserting an FLV into a template based page.
    The error is: "Making this change would require changing code
    that is locked by a template or translator. The change will be
    discarded."
    I thought perhaps something was wrong with my code so I
    created a new page in DW8, with one word of text. Saved the new
    page as a template with the one word of text made into an editable
    region. Created a page based on that template and attempted to
    insert a FLV file into the editable region (using Insert > Media
    > Flash Video). I still get the error message. I've attached the
    code for this page.
    I also get the error message when I go through the tutorial
    Presenting
    Video with the Flash Video Component in Dreamweaver 8. Using
    the files provided in the tutorial.
    Is the only workaround for this the one I found here?:
    http://med.stanford.edu/irt/web/references/flash_video_installation.html.
    Steps are under heading "Workaround for Locked Code insert error"
    near bottom of page.
    Any help is appreciated.

  • How can I insert a widget slideshow into a template-based page in Dreamweaver

    HI, I Have a question that has been nagging me for the last three hours.
    I have been trying to insert a slideshow into a template based document using the insert widget function in Dreamweaver CS 5.5.  The problem is that I contine to get the error that
        "This widget requires code that must be inserted into the head of the current document.  Insertion cannot happen because the head of this document is read only."
    I have tried to edit the template file in order to make the head tag into an editable region.  I have tried to resolve the problem by eliminating the
    <!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" --> function call and instead using the <!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="head" -->
    function, but all that does is grey out all the code on the page following the this function call.  The other side effect of using this method is that the child documents do not even have a header anymore.
    I do not know if this is just a lack of understanding how this works, or if there is a bug in Dreamweaver.
    Any help in this subject wold be appreciated. 
    The original HTML for the template in question is below.
    Header 1
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN">
    <html>
    <head>

    Thanks for the response.
    Unfortunately, I have tried it, but continue to recieve the same error message.  I have double checked the syntax and positioning of the editable regions, and they match yours completely.  In the child page everything is editable.  Do you have any other suggestions for this perplexing problem?  Thanks
    Here is the syntax of the header tag from the child page showing all of the editable regions:

  • Spry tool tip does not work in template or child pages within an editable region. Why not?

    Ok. so I am getting pretty frustrated. I take the time to learn how to use CSS and to create a template page for a Contractor Site (www.ContractorInsurance.net). The idea is to create a page that I can use for different classes of Contractors...right?
    Then I get all happy about being able to insert ToolTip onto pages to help the user. Great!
    LIfe to turn to Sorrow after nearly five hours of searching for a "eeking" answer.
    So what good does it do to have an Editable region to update if we cannot have the flexibility to insert a tool tip on child pages?  Ok so the fast solution is to what... Have a question mark image, insert another apDiv, name it toolTip_Not and provide it with a show=hide behavior?
    RRRRRrrr...
    This really sucks not being able to find a solution within a reasonable amount of time.

    I have tried thank you. However...it is still not working.

    The error message is "Making this change would require code that is locked by a template translator"

    If you have a look at the following simple document with a tooltipTooltip trigger goes here.
    Tooltip content goes here.
    you will notice that a couple of lines have been placed in the HEAD section of the document. When using DW templates, the HEAD section is usually not editable, hence the error mesaage. By default, your template should have an editable region in it just before the closing tag. It looks like this: <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="head" > <! TemplateEndEditable --> Dreamweaver should be able to find that editable region and insert the
    <script> tag there automatically. Because you don't have an editable region like that in the <head>, open the master template, and paste the code above just before the closing </head>
    tag. Gramps

  • Templates not updating child pages

    I am running DM CS3, Version 9.0, Build 3481. When I have the
    HTTP address listed in the box on the Site Definition page (Local
    Info), any changes that I make to a template are not saved in the
    child pages when I save the template. I have the Links set relative
    to Document.
    If I remove the HTTP address from the box in the Site
    Definition page, the template changes will be saved in the child
    pages. If I click to Remote Server and then back to Local Info, the
    HTTP address is inserted back into the HTTP box. I have to remove
    it and hit OKAY and DONE in order to have the template update
    properly.
    I did not have to do this before. I have reloaded DM CS3, so
    maybe a switch is set somewhere to cause this issue. Does anyone
    know how to fix this permanently?

    Sure. It's Dreamweaver MX Templates by Brad Halstead and myself - ISBN 0-7357-1319-7.  I spend quite a bit of time explaining nested templates.  Sadly, nowhere do I say you should avoid them.  But you should.
    There is a master template that controls top level navigation and then five child templates that give different left-side navigation based on which section of the site the user is in. You can see this in action at www.homerenergy.com.
    You should see how easy this is to do with server-side includes and a single template file.  It's the best of both worlds.
    You can see this in action at www.homerenergy.com.
    Yep.  http://validator.w3.org/unicorn/check?ucn_uri=http://www.homerenergy.com/&ucn_task=conform ance - even if you would leave the nested templates in place, you would sure want to fix those.
    The section-specific navigation is very easy to manage either with template conditionals or with server-side includes.  You can see this site - http://www.ent-sys.com - where I have done the section navigation on interior pages with template conditionals.
    However, your site is small, and simple.  Nested templates can work OK in such circumstances.  But I have never seen a use of nested templates that couldn't be done more simply with some other approach.

  • Template not updating child pages {subject edited by moderator}

    I used templates for the sprymenu bar throughout the site. Recently, when i updated my nurse template (change the "2012 Upgrade" to "Upgrade" on the horizontal bar (see the red highlighted line in the code) and saved my change, I could not see the prompt asking me to confirm the updating of those linked child pages. I guessed i must have messed up the linking between the template (Nurses_Contentpage.dwt) and child pages (Nurses-inpatient.html and more html files). Where should I look at to fix this? Thanks!

    I do have the exact hierarchy of this site on both the test and production sites.
    If that were the case then DW would not change the links to file:/// links. Are you sure they didn't start that way? Typically they get that way when you insert an element into the page that is *outside* the root folder for the site.
    For the nurse template, there are 6 child pages. I am using a total of 5-6 templates and each template has 3-6 child pages.
    I don't see any reason why you would need so many templates for this simple layout. I haven't encountered a site I couldn't do with a single template yet. However, that's not answering your question.
    Is this lack of propagation of changes true for ALL your templates in this site or only one? Also, do you see it happen on other sites?

  • Problem Inserting Flash Video (.flv) File in Page Using Dreamweaver CS4's Insert Media Command

    I am using Dreamweaver CS4.
    I am attempting to put a Flash Video (.flv) file on a standard HTML page in Dreamweaver.
    When I either click the Insert Flash Video in the Common tab on the Dreamweaver toolbar, or if I choose Insert > Media > FLV to inert the video, I get the standard Dreamweaver FLV interface. I make my choices, click OK, and when the video is place on the page, I get the following dialog box:
    "While executing inspectSelection in flvProgressive.htm, a JavaScript error occurred."
    with an OK button.
    If I preview the page, all that loads are the various buttons of the skin that I have chosen and no video.
    Anyone have an idea what is going on?
    maylandmac

    Are you sure you aren't working with a template driven page?
    When you insert media files into DW, it must write code in the <head> tags to reference Scripts necessary for Flash media to work on the web. 
    If you're working with a page that was created from a Template, the DWT page must have editable regions in the <head> tags, or you won't be able to add media to your web pages.

  • Inserting flv (video) in DW8 page

    I want to insert some small video clips in a website
    (something akin to YouTube video clips in dimension, with playback
    controls).
    I've figured out how to create the video in Flash
    (Professional 8) and create the flv that I need to place in DW8.
    I'd like to include one of the pre-built 'skins' that are included
    in Flash. The thing is, when insert the flv in DW8, the latter
    seems to insist that I select a DW8 skin before placement of the
    flv in the page. But the flv already includes a skin from Flash....
    Anybody familiar with this? Any suggestions?
    TIA
    Hugh

    Huh?
    So, he would just insert the SWF file on the page, without
    doing the Flash
    video option?

  • How to create a template and child pages using mockup designed in Fireworks

    I have created a website in Fireworks, and exported it to use in Dreamweaver.  How do I use the Master page in Fireworks as my template page in Dreamweaver?  When I bring in the .htm files from fireworks, it tries to bring in the entire page.  I have taken 25 hours of online training for Fireworks and Dreamweaver through Lynda.com, but there is not a specific video that tells you how to get your website from Fireworks into Dreamweaver if you want to utilize the Template and child page features.

    Use Fireworks to crop, slice and optimize images only.  DO NOT allow any graphics app to generate your HTML code for you.  This results in poorly formed code and rigid layouts that invariably fall apart when you attempt to edit them in DW.  Fireworks / Photoshop generated pages are for quick prototypes or design comps to show the client.  They do not work well on production sites.

  • Modifying a template resulted in all child pages with repeating editable regions - Help !

    Good morning,
    I have recently been appointed to update a website designed in Dreamweaver by an employee who is no longer here. I have read books on the software and practiced an insane amount which permitted me to update child pages, links, documents etc... however:
    I was asked to add a new button to an "non-editable" region of a template. Trying to do so resulted in a massive mess (with massive anxiety).
    Even thou the new template had all the same text and editable regions, all my pages look completely different from the template itself. The editable regions appears 2-3 times in different locations ex: Header is showed on the bottom, top etc... and the Editable region titles (EditableRegion1 etc...) repeat themselves as well.
    I really need help and not sure what to do, I have tried everything and I am only making it worse and worse. All I want/need is for all my html pages created with this template, match the template.
    Please note that this site is local, not online.
    Since I noticed on other threads that the code is needed; here it is:
    <!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>QMS: AFM</title>
    <style type="text/css">
    <!--
    body  {
    font: 100% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    background: #666666;
    margin: 0; /* it's good practice to zero the margin and padding of the body element to account for differing browser defaults */
    padding: 0;
    text-align: center; /* this centers the container in IE 5* browsers. The text is then set to the left aligned default in the #container selector */
    color: #000000;

    /* Tips for Elastic layouts
    1. Since the elastic layouts overall sizing is based on the user's default fonts size, they are more unpredictable. Used correctly, they are also more accessible for those that need larger fonts size since the line length remains proportionate.
    2. Sizing of divs in this layout are based on the 100% font size in the body element. If you decrease the text size overall by using a font-size: 80% on the body element or the #container, remember that the entire layout will downsize proportionately. You may want to increase the widths of the various divs to compensate for this.
    3. If font sizing is changed in differing amounts on each div instead of on the overall design (ie: #sidebar1 is given a 70% font size and #mainContent is given an 85% font size), this will proportionately change each of the divs overall size. You may want to adjust based on your final font sizing.
    .twoColElsLtHdr #container {
    width: 46em;  /* this width will create a container that will fit in an 800px browser window if text is left at browser default font sizes */
    background: #FFFFFF;
    margin: 0 auto; /* the auto margins (in conjunction with a width) center the page */
    border: 30px none #C4C4C4;
    text-align: left; /* this overrides the text-align: center on the body element. */
    padding-left: 10px;
    background-color: #FFF;
    border-top-color: #C4C4C4;

    border-left-style: outset;
    border-top-width: thick;
    border-right-style: outset;
    border-top-style: outset;
    border-left-color: #C4C4C4;
    border-right-width: thick;
    border-bottom-width: thick;
    border-left-width: thick;
    .twoColElsLtHdr #header {
    padding: 0 10px;  /* this padding matches the left alignment of the elements in the divs that appear beneath it. If an image is used in the #header instead of text, you may want to remove the padding. */
    background-color: #FFF;
    .twoColElsLtHdr #header h1 {
    margin: 0; /* zeroing the margin of the last element in the #header div will avoid margin collapse - an unexplainable space between divs. If the div has a border around it, this is not necessary as that also avoids the margin collapse */
    padding: 10px 0; /* using padding instead of margin will allow you to keep the element away from the edges of the div */
    /* Tips for sidebar1:
    1. Be aware that if you set a font-size value on this div, the overall width of the div will be adjusted accordingly.
    2. Since we are working in ems, it's best not to use padding on the sidebar itself. It will be added to the width for standards compliant browsers creating an unknown actual width.
    3. Space between the side of the div and the elements within it can be created by placing a left and right margin on those elements as seen in the ".twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 p" rule.
    .twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 {
    float: left;
    width: 12em; /* the background color will be displayed for the length of the content in the column, but no further */
    padding: 15px 0; /* top and bottom padding create visual space within this div */
    background-color: #066;
    background-repeat: repeat-x;
    border-top-width: thin;
    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: none;
    border-bottom-style: none;
    border-left-style: none;
    border-right-width: thin;
    border-bottom-width: thin;
    border-left-width: thin;
    color: #FFF;
    padding-left: 0px;
    clear: left;
    .twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 h3, .twoColElsLtHdr #sidebar1 p {
    margin-left: 10px; /* the left and right margin should be given to every element that will be placed in the side columns */
    margin-right: 10px;
    background-color: #066;
    text-decoration: inherit;
    /* Tips for mainContent:
    1. If you give this #mainContent div a font-size value different than the #sidebar1 div, the margins of the #mainContent div will be based on its font-size and the width of the #sidebar1 div will be based on its font-size. You may wish to adjust the values of these divs.
    2. The space between the mainContent and sidebar1 is created with the left margin on the mainContent div.  No matter how much content the sidebar1 div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this left margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #sidebar1 space when the content in #sidebar1 ends.
    3. To avoid float drop, you may need to test to determine the approximate maximum image/element size since this layout is based on the user's font sizing combined with the values you set. However, if the user has their browser font size set lower than normal, less space will be available in the #mainContent div than you may see on testing.
    4. In the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs that may occur.
    .twoColElsLtHdr #mainContent {
    margin: 0 1.5em 0 13em; /* the right margin can be given in ems or pixels. It creates the space down the right side of the page. */
    color:#069;
    background-color:#FFF;
    border-top-style: none;
    border-right-style: none;
    border-bottom-style: none;

    I am not suprised, the previous employee tried to recreate the English version of the site in another folder structure and did not change all links and was still using a template in the wrong location.
    I think I created the mess by trying to modify the existing template's non-editable region in order to add a new button. When trying to update all the pages, the fiasco started.
    Do you think the best option would be to create a new template in the correct folder structure and apply it? Would it fix the current pages or will I have to fix them all manualy on by one?
    I understand it is difficult to deal with a newbie of my magnitude and thanks again.

  • DW CS3  child page content doubled after template change

    Hello
    I am using DW CS3.  My question / problem is that the child page of a template has double content (two times the same) after changing something on the template.
    On the child page I am entering text into a editable region in side an AP div.  When I don't like the position of the text in the child I close the child and go to the Parnet (template) and change the L  and the T.  Moving it to a more suitable location.   When I update the site and re-open the child the content is doubled and not even one right on top of another but staggered.
    When I view the child page there are three editable region tages that show up in the design window.  doctile, head and Editregion3.
    I receive an error saying "there is an error at  line 46, column 139 (absolute position 1583) of D:\.....\index.html"; InstanceBegin tag inside editable region.
    Not too sure what that means or how I need to fix it.
    If you have any suggestions on how I might be able to resolve this problem I would be more than appreciative.
    Thanks

    Not really a solution, but I changed the z value from auto to 1000, and now I can move the APdiv around with out causing any problems.
    The only odd thing is before I was not colliding with any other elements of the page. So I am not too sure why it did not want to work on the same plane as the other elements.
    EDIT:
    Changing the z value did not solve the problem. It was a fluke that it worked for a few moves.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks
    p.s.
    not able to attach .dwt or .html???
