Using DreamWeaver CSS Desinger how to?

I am CS6 Creative Cloud subscriber and saw the new CSS Designer feature which I want to use.
I am now confused with the product lines of Adobe. As Creative Cloud subscriber Adobe stated I have access to the newest versions of my products always. As it turns out the new CSS Designer is only available in DreamWeaver CC. I cant see anywhere how to download DreamWeaver CC or update my existing CS Version. Not only that Adobe patched the existing version of CS6 in the last couple of month twice in regards to the Fluid Layout and golden grid which is very confusing now they also diverted some features in the new CC version.
Can someone plase explain me that mess and how I can clean it up.
As a Web Designer working with responsive Design I would love to check out all new features.
Thanks

The CC products will be available from next Monday. The rest is not relevant. Re-read the announcemnts properly.

Are you talking about a real image in the markup (an img
"tag") or about a
background image?
Background images do not stretch, real images will resize to
whatever
dimensions you set for them in the styles sheet.
As a side note, IE has a filter that allows "background
images" (note that
they are not really background images) to stretch (Google
"AlphaImageLoader
scale").

How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?

How do i create a styled spry mysql driven menu using dreamweaver cs4?
I have cs4. I gave up on using MS sql as a datasource. I finally got a php successfull connection in my PHP web page.
I would like a nice video tutorial for creating a dynamic menu.
I guess i can style it by attaching a css file to the page. Are their any already designed css files out there in some online area?
i am not a good designer. so i would like to simply have a collection of menu_style.css files and choose what looks good.
But first i need to build the spry menu from the mysql database.
Any help is apprechiated.
My first choice was to maintain the data in an MS sql server file. If i could directly attach to an ms sql datasource then that would be the best option.
I dont think i want to have to re-generate an XML datasource each time i add or modify the menu. I would like to maintain the MS Sql or mySql file instead.
If i could generate an XML datasource from the MS Sql database then I may even prefere that, but i have spent a lot of time trying to figure out how to do that and not had any success. So i prefere working in MS sql but would settle for mySql if i had to.
Thanks

How do I fix my homepage for Internet Explorer use, when using dreamweaver?

Hi,
I have recently created my first two webpages, and they looked like they were working when I was using Firefox. But when using Internet Explorer one of the pages drop the text down to an area of the screen where it's impossible to read it. Can someone please help me out? I am using Dreamweaver and I'm sure there is a basic problem I've created for myself, but I can't figure out what it is! This is the webpage I'm having problems with: www.haanshuus.no.
Thanks a lot for any help in resolving this problem!

I don't think this has anything to do with the conditional comments.
The problem is with your layout approach. Trying to precisely fit content over a very large background image never works as planned. If you increase text size in any browser (Zoom text only, Ctrl+++), your black content spills out of the gray box into the black region below. Black text on black background becomes invisible. Your approach works in Print design but fails on the web because web pages need to be flexible.
Remove your Body background image and notice how your page flows. A different approach would be to slice your background into sections to create a flexible gray box.
Example here:

How do I upload a finished website to Business Catalyst using Dreamweaver?

I've finished building a website that I want to publish on Business Catalyst for my client. I'm using Dreamweaver CC. There is an option for creating a new BC website, but I can't find a way to upload a finished site like I was able to in the older versions of Dreamweaver. Am I missing something?

A workaround that's available that involves a few steps.
1. Print a network configuration page to get the printers host name.
a. press the wrench in top right hand corner
b. Select the wireless menu
c. Scroll and select network configuration.
d. Print network configuration page.
2. Select start menu
a. Go to my computer.
b. At the top of the page select map network drive.
c. In the drive box select a available drive letter.
d. In the Path or Folder text box, type the following:
\\ insert host name here\Memory_Card
example on how it should look. \\HP7A5319\memory_card
Select finish after entering information.
Let me know how it goes.

I have been using DREAMWEAVER MX for almost ten years to keep a website up-to-date. Can I switch to iWeb now to do the job, and if so, how do I go about it?

With MacOS 10.7 looming on the horizon, using veteran software DREAMWEAVER MX any longer does not seem to be such a good idea. I would like to use an editor that can cope with the new MacOS. Is iWeb that editor?
Specifically, I need some clarity on these issues:
Can I switch to iWeb now to create and publish content in my old website for which I have been using DREAMWEAVER MX?
Can I use the html layout I have been using in DREAMWEAVER, or do I have to steel myself for drastic changes?
How do I import the complete website into iWeb – if at all?

If you switch to iWeb you will have to build the site from scratch since iWeb can't read or import html files. Also since the future of iWeb is a little uncertain as to if it will be continued to be supported by Apple it might not be the best move at this time.
You might look into upgrading to Dreamweaver for Mac.

How To Use a css File To Watermark A Report

Hello.
I am using Apex 4.0.1 and have a need to place a watermark (that is, a background image) over a report, both a "classic" type and Interactive Report.
I have two questions about this.
1) I've searched this Forum and found several good questions/responses about this subject. What I think is the most maintainable solution is to create a .css file and reference this file within the Template section of a copy of, say, the "Reports Region" template used by my application theme. And so, I made a copy of the "Reports Region" template and called it "Watermark Reports Region". I then created a very simple .css file called "bgimg.css" defined as:
#REGION_STATIC_ID# {
background-image: url(#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#menu_bug.png) !important;
background-repeat: repeat !important;
background-attachment: fixed !important;
Note: For those that may not know, the "!important" clause is, in fact, a css defined clause used to tell the browser that it should give the associated option the highest precedence. This prevents my desired css option from being overridden by another css file. Frankly, I myself did not know this until after I saw it being used in several of the responses on this Forum and then read up about it.
I uploaded this css file via the Apex "Shared Components -> Cascading Style Sheets" option. I also made sure that menu_bug.png is, in fact, among my workspace images.
I also made sure that my "Watermark Reports Region" template contains the substitution variable "REGION_STATIC_ID" and that my actual report region has a value in the Region Static Id field.
Within my "Watermark Reports Region" template, I tried to reference my .css file. This is where I think my problem is.
I placed
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#bgimg.css" />
at the very top of the Template section in my "Watermark Reports Region" template.
I then assigned my template to my Apex report. When I run my report, I see nothing.
So, how does one reference this css file within the template?
=================================================
2) I tried using my css tags as an internal style by placing it within the "HTML Header" section of my application page. I used:
<style type="text/css">
#empreport {
background-image: url(#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#menu_bug.png) !important;
background-repeat: repeat !important;
background-attachment: fixed !important;
</style>
I assigned a div tag to my report region header and footer that looks like:
In Header: <div id="empreport">
In Footer: </div>
When I run the report, I do get the image. But it is surrounding the report. It looks like my report is "floating" in a sea of bug images.
So, how can I get these images to actually appear within the report itself. In other words, I want the report itself to be "transparent" so as to allow these images to be seen within the report body itself.
Thank you all for any help/advice/code example.
Elie

Thanks for taking the time to post sufficient information to understand the problem. In future if you're going to such efforts you might want to use them to reproduce the problem on apex.oracle.com, which means you can share actual working (or more likely not working!) code. Please also always wrap code posted on the forum in tags<tt>\...\</tt> tags to preserve formatting and special characters.
>
I placed
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#bgimg.css" />
at the very top of the Template section in my "Watermark Reports Region" template.
>
According to the relevant HTML 4.01 and XHTML 1.x standards, <tt>style</tt> and <tt>link rel="stylesheet"</tt> elements should only appear within the <tt>head</tt> element of a document.
This changes in HTML5. The new <tt>scoped</tt> attribute allows <tt>style</tt> to be used in a prescribed way elsewhere in the document, with the effect that the styling rules specified are only to be applied to the other descendant elements of that <tt>style</tt> element's parent (in the way you're trying to do here). I'd expect <tt>link</tt> with a <tt>rel="stylesheet"</tt> to remain restricted to <tt>head</tt> content in HTML5: off the top of my head I can't see a use case for referencing external stylesheets in a non-metadata context.
That said, current browsers apply CSS regardless of where in the document it appears, and future HTML5-compliant ones will continue to continue to do so for backwards compatibility. For myself, when using XHTML 1.0 I'll continue to follow the only put <tt>style</tt> and <tt>link</tt> elements in the page <tt>head</tt>. When I get round to using HTML5 for real I'll follow the standards for that as well.
I strongly recommend that you follow the standards and only put <tt>link rel="stylesheet"</tt> elements in the page <tt>head</tt>.
>
Note: For those that may not know, the "!important" clause is, in fact, a css defined clause used to tell the browser that it should give the associated option the highest precedence.

>
Use <tt>!important</tt> only where it's actually needed. It's over-represented in this forum because Oracle changed the order of style sheet inclusion in APEX 4.0 and made it more difficult to override theme styles using CSS in the page HTML Header without modifying page templates.
Try your styles initially without using <tt>!important</tt>, and also consider using the cascade to provide any necessary overrides by including your CSS after other style sheets.
>
I then created a very simple .css file called "bgimg.css" defined as:
#REGION_STATIC_ID# {
background-image: url(#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#menu_bug.png) !important;
background-repeat: repeat !important;
background-attachment: fixed !important;
I then assigned my template to my Apex report. When I run my report, I see nothing.
>
Because <tt>#WORKSPACE_IMAGES#</tt> is not substituted in external CSS files: +{thread:id=986329}+
If possible it's much better to locate image, CSS and JavaScript files externally on the file system. Otherwise you'll have to use the workaround suggested in that thread and include a <tt>style</tt> element in the page templates to specify the background image.
When I run the report, I do get the image. But it is surrounding the report. It looks like my report is "floating" in a sea of bug images.Reports are descendants of their region containers and may be subject to additional built-in or theme styles that overrides that specified for the region. Your CSS selector has to specify the report element, not the entire region.
So, how can I get these images to actually appear within the report itself. In other words, I want the report itself to be "transparent" so as to allow these images to be seen within the report body itself.I'd use a <tt>class</tt> attribute in the region template: this removes the need to use the <tt>#REGION_STATIC_ID#</tt> selector, and allows the CSS to go in the page <tt>head</tt> where it belongs. Add <tt>watermark-report-region</tt> in addition to any existing <tt>class</tt> values in the region template:
<div class="borderless-region watermark-report-region" id="#REGION_STATIC_ID#" #REGION_ATTRIBUTES#>
<div class="bl-body">#BODY#</div>
</div>You may have to inspect the page source (use a web inspector like that found in Safari, or the Firefox+Firebug combo) to figure out what has to be overridden in the theme/templates you're using. This worked for an Interactive Report using theme 17:
.watermark-report-region .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA {
background: #fff url(/i/menu/blank_app_32.gif);
.watermark-report-region .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tr.even td,
.watermark-report-region .apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA tr.odd td {
background-color: transparent;
}For a standard report you'll need to identify the selector required for the actual report element (equivalent to the <tt>apexir_WORKSHEET_DATA</tt> table) using the web inspector or from the report template. It would be a good idea to create standard report template(s) incorporating a <tt>watermark-report</tt> class on the report table to provide a simple selector for such reports.

How to use Dreamweaver instead of Site Builder

I created a website using Dreamweaver and used its FTP capability to upload the files. I used the settings (HOST NAME: ftpmysite.verizon.net, User Name: your user ID (e.g. - jsmith), PASSWORD: your password) that were published here.. http://www.verizon.net/central/vzc.portal?_nfpb=true&action=FAQ&_pageLabel=pws_content#wlp_pws_conte...
Dreamweaver uploaded the files and the Web Space Monitor lists all of the files but they are not accessible using my personal URL (http://mysite.verizon.net/username). In the Disk Space tool in Site Builder shows the files under a category of "Other Files (including system files)."
How can I get my website to be active through my personal URL without using Site Builder?
Thanks for your help!

Is the main page file listed as index.htm or index.html?
When web designing, it doesn't matter if it's either .htm or .html. Just as long as every other page that you DO link the index file to that it's consistent.
For example, I cannot have on another page:
<a href="index.htm">Text here</a>
When the original index file is a .html
So long as you're consistent when linking each file to the original index it should be fine. The Suffix that it has really hasn't mattered for years.
If you use 'pls' because it's shorter than 'please' I'm going to say 'no' because it's shorter than 'yes.'

How to create a dynamic newsflash using dreamweaver and PHP

Hi there,
I would like to create a dynamic newsflash using dreamweaver and PHP in that the newsflash will be pulling information from a MySQL database. The newsflash should also have a link to view more information about the piece of news a user wants to know more about. Which tools do I need to use in dreamweaver and how's the procedure to go about that. Any advice is highly appreciated. Thanx in advance!

I think you´ll need at least a MySQL table with the following columns:
- id (primary key, int, auto_increment etc)
- news_headline (varchar)
- news_teaser (text)
- news_content (text)
What I´d personally add are columns such as:
- news_date (date or datetime)
- news_external_link (varchar), if a "read more..." link is supposed to navigate to an external URL rather than displaying the contens of the "news_contents" column.
Based on such a MySQL table it should be easy to use Dreamweavers standard Server Behaviors to create the usual datalist.php, insert.php, update.php and delete.php documents, and there are numerous tutorials out there which will teach you how to do that.
Am I right when assuming that you´ll also need to know how to automatically pull, say, the 5 most recent news records from the database ?

You just copy the code from one page and paste into another. If you are having problems, you need to be more specific about what is not working.
