Web folder on idisk????

okay I am using iweb to make my site and publishing on .mac. I have my idisk sync turned on so I can see it on my desktop.
now, I just published my site but I need to change a file that won't work the way I need it to in iweb so I have to hand code it and then replace the fuzzed one that iweb made. theortically I should be able to just drop it into my idisk and that will update the remote version. yes? trouble is where the heck are the files on the idisk. help says there should be a web folder for iweb stuff but it ain't there.

Go to iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/Sitename/Pagename.html
There are two ways to handle accessing your iDisk.
Method 1:
Turn on local copy of your iDisk in System Prefs, with or without automatic syncing.
If you publish your site via iWeb, now the updated pages exist online but the old pages are on your local iDisk. You need to sync (automatically or manually) to get the new pages on your local iDisk (on your computer).
Then you can open the updated files, make your html changes in Text Edit or whatever program, and SYNC AGAIN (automatically or manually) to update the online version of the site to match what you have just changed on your local iDisk
Method 2:
Mount the iDisk when needed via the "Go" menu in Finder. This is the ONLINE VERSION of your iDisk, not a local copy. When you publish your site via iWeb, the changes INSTANTLY appear on the iDisk on your desktop. If you make html edits or other changes, they appear INSTANTLY online.
I recommend Method 2 - much easier!!!

Syncing 'web' folder on iDisk after publishing website on .Mac

I just published a simple site with a few pages and a couple of blogs and published it to my .Mac account.
It takes a while to upload on ADSL 1M downstream, but only 256k upstream - which is fine.
The problem is that then my iDisk starts syncing and pulls down exactly the same information as I justed uploaded. this doens't make any sense to me... why isn't the web folder like the backup folder i.e. just a pointer to the remote iDisk rather than a syncronised folder?

One difference between sync you web pages via iDisk vs. sync via iWeb Publish are some features (such as reflections) which will only be available using iWeb Publish, such as the "nice" slideshow. This is because iWeb uses AJAX (as I remember) but oonly when publishing via iWeb. Using iDisk sync the relfection on slideshow are not avaialble.

Deleted "Web" folder

I think accidentally deleted the Web folder in my iDisk, so iWeb can't publish anything to my iDisk. I've tried to create another Web folder but it tells me I don't have enough privileges. Does anyone know how I can put another Web folder in my iDisk? Thanks SOOO much for your help!
-Rick

iWeb should do it automatically. In other words, the iWeb directory doesn't even exist on the iDisk until you publish from iWeb; then it's created. I don't believe you can delete the root level Web directory from the iDisk. But even without iWeb, you should be able to create a new folder in the Sites directory. (Web/Sites/iWeb/)

Is there a web based (or iDisk) iTunes for allowing viewing of video files?

Is there a web based (or iDisk) iTunes type of program for allowing viewing of video files?
I would love to have this possibility to just drop all myhundreds of "musical ideas" movies in a folder/playlist like iTunes interface and have them available for viewing web based for musical co-writers & collaborators.
Thanks

Hi,
iTunes doesn't do Internet broadcast. I suggest you use iMovie to compress your files into and Internet file format. You can then use mobile me or YouTube to show your material over the Internet.
If you want to maintain more control over the material, you may want to set up a computer to become a server. That way you can give access codes only to persons you want to see the material.
I would look into mobile me if I was you. It sounds like you only need a small Internet presence to do what you want to do. And I think MobileMe would give you all the tools you need to distribute your material to those you want to see it. And it would do it at a very low cost.
Good luck,

Js folder not included in OAM, or web folder when published

I'm sure I'm doing something wrong, but I've check a few video tuts and don't appear to have my structure wrong. see attached.
But when I Publish the index.html for both web and OAM, the js folder and the fonts folder are not copied to the "web" folder in the "publish" folder.
Now that I know this it's not a problem for the web folder to import into DPS, as I can just create a copy and manually place the JS and Fonts folder into the web folder, but it seems to be a problem with the OAM, ie not JS script no interaction.
Anyway I hope you get what is happening, and I must be doing something wrong, so to sum up, the OAM file does not appear to be have my JS folder bundled into it.
Is my file structure wrong in the attached example?
Cheers
Alistair

Thanks Elaine
It would be hugely helpful if this info was posted on the forum, I have looked and searched much of the day for other postings to no avail.
Presumably this is the same problem that stops the JS folder being saved to the web folder - not to mention the font folder if one has been created for a custom font offline.
Don't recall there being a bug report list as per DPS, but happy to be told otherwise. Many thanks for the responses. Very much appreciated.

Link to other published web folder from within password protected iWeb site

I realise that you cannot password protect an iWeb site if it contains a link to an external page / file. However, I have a complex genealogy site that I had previously published to another site. I directly copied this folder to the iWeb directory alongside the folder for the protected site published from iWeb. I have tried all sorts of link URLs on the protected site page, trying to link to the genealogy index.html file. iWeb refuses to allow password protection or even point correctly to the site.
Does anyone know how to create a suitable link to a site folder created elsewhere?

I have a password protected site with a page that has a link to an ordinary homepage.mac.com page, with no problems. Could you provide more details on what is not working for you? Maybe putting your geneology folder in iDisk/Sites and linking to that would help?

BOXI to output file to web folder

Hello,
I want to upload a generated excel file from BusinessObjects to a web folder instead of a unmanaged disk destination option. I tried something like this but it doesn't work
dev-training-sps.abcd.com\newhire\Reports Library
Is this possible?
Thanks,

Can you copy and paste the above url/share into start/run on the XI server itself and when that url/share comes up copy a file in it? And do this with the same user account that the XI services use.
If NOT, than no..you can't do what you looking for.
Currently the only destination options in XI are: file system, FTP or email.
A work around might be to use an event in XI that gets kicked of after you schedule a file to a folder. And this event would kick of a third party app or script that simply grabs any file in that folder and forwards it to your web share.

Duncan

Access protected web folder with jsp code or servlet transparently

Hi.
I'm developing a web site. I want to place some of the web pages (*.swf)
a protected web folder so that no one can DIRECTLY access them through wget or browser.
However these *.swf files will be called by other jsp or servlets to display their content
in broswer. What kind of authentication mechanism should I　ｕｓｅ？ Should I use filter?
Please give me some ideas.
Best regards.

A Filter is perfectly applicable. But you also have to define the requirements which a request must fullfill to retrieve the contents. For example a login mechanism of which the User is been stored in the session, or an unique key provided as request parameter, or maybe the referrer, etcetera.

Save for web folder prefs in new illustrator

Where can you set the save for web folder prefs in the new illustrator, i.e. not have it create an images folder...
-Thanks

On a MAC it does seem to stick on the last option you saved e.g. Jpeg if it was a Jpeg image.
For windows, this seems to work:
Find the file PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe using explorer (in the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 8.0 folder) right click on that file and choose Run As Administrator.
Go back to the editor, open an image, select Save for Web and choose jpeg; then save that file. The next time you run the editor and use the save for web command the jpeg type should hopefully stick as the default.

Viewing 'deploy to web' folder content on computer

Hey everyone. I have been having this problem for the past few days and finally got an answer from the Adobe help line. But, adninjastrator helped me a lot, too! I wanted to post the solution on here for anyone who might have problems with this in the future.
Basically, I thought I had a glitchy version of Flash Catalyst because I couldn't view my 'deploy to web' folder contents on my computer. The video I would upload onto it just wouldn't play, like there was no video there, just the videoplayer skin. Well, apparently you can only view your 'deploy to web' files once you publish everything to a server. Here's a copy of the thread I had in Flash about this. Hope it helps people in the future!
Adobe called me back late afternoon yesterday. They said that there is no way you can view the 'deploy-to-web' files straight from a computer. They said that you HAVE to upload it to a server in order to view it. I've never heard of that for other video and web applications. That's so odd... So I wasn't expecting anything like that at all. I told them that it would probably be a good idea to make that much more apparent to people since most of us like to test our content BEFORE we upload it. The uploading process takes long enough. We don't want to spend all that time uploading and then see that something doesn't work right. Hopefully they make that apparent in the future. But he did give me instructions on how to access a local server just using your computer, not going to a free website hosting company or anything.
Here are the instructions on how to access your local host on the computer. This has to be done using a Windows computer or a Windows partition like I have. I don't know the instructions on how to do it for a Mac. I hope these instructions make sense and help you, motvsonofjack.

Hi there,
I can view your swf under http://www.skribblz.com/Main.swf (although it looks to be just a background).
http://www.skribblz.com/index.html is still your old page.
What you'd normally do to modify your webpage, is:
Copy the contents of the deploy-to-web folder, to the public-html folder.
Verify that yourdomain/Main.html, and yourdomain/Main.swf both load correctly
Delete index.html.
Rename Main.html to index.html
You should not rename the swf.

WebDav could open URL as web folder

Hi all,
We have been using WebDav to update KM documents in our Portal. It stopped working recently and we are trying to troubleshoot.
Steps:-
Log into portal with an ID with the correct permissions
Change the portal url from "http://<host>:<port>/irj/portal " to http://<host>:<port>/irj/go/km/docs
when I click on the "Web folder" link then the following two options show up:
1 Access the folder using the Navigation user interface.
2 Access the folder as a Web folder. Your operating system and browser dictate whether or not this will work.
When I click on the Web folder link, I received an error : "Internet Explorer could not open the link https://<servername>:port/irj/go/km/docs/documents as a web folder."
Does anyone know how to solve this? thanks!

Hi,
I don't think that the SP upgrade should have caused this issue, but a good test would be to try either mapping this location as a web folder in windows or even try creating a web folder to another location outside the portal to see if it is confined to the portal or not. I would think that it probably will not work either. If not then it may indeed depend on your browser or OS, or indeed some MS security patches have caused similar problems, is it possible that there were some OS patch updates done in your network recently?
What OS and browser are you using?
Regards,
Lorcan.

Why can not I open WinRAR and WinZIP via MS Web Folder?

Why can not I open WinRAR and WinZIP via MS Web Folder?
For example, If you attempt to open the zip-file error: "Invalid fileid: <file name> ".

Hi -
I am unable to replicate your issue. I am able to open winzip files just fine through MSWebFolders. Your Windows client may have an older version of the Web Folder Client (MSDAIPP.DLL). Can you find that file on computer (should be in common files\system\oledb) and check the version (right click --> properties -->version flag). We support 12.0.6415.1000. There may be issues with older versions of that file (some of those issues are discussed here - http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/webfolder-client-list.html).
Office 2007 SP2 provides the most recent version of MSDAIPP.DLL

Is there any way to create a folder on idisk from ipad 2?

It appears that one can only save a document to an existing folder on idisk, not create a new folder. Anyone know a way? It is cumberson to have to go and start up my computer just to create a folder there.
thanks,
Joe

Someone on the iPad forum recommended GoodReader, which is only $4.99. I am going with that. The ipad forum is quite helpful! http://www.ipadforums.net/
thanks so much,

No. There is no iDisk with iCloud. You can use one of several third-party alternatives like SugarSync, ADrive, or MediaFire.

Web server only accessing the default web folder.

I have the web folder for my domain specified in the web folder on my server as: /Library/WebServer/Documents/whp/
But when I enter the domain in a web browser, it goes to the home page in the /Library/WebServer/Documents/ instead.
The IP address is set to any and the port is 80.
Any idea what I am doing wrong?

The website name you're typing into your web browser must exactly match either the domain name you have entered in Server Admin for the site, or an alias (under "Aliases"). So, for example, "example.com" and "www.example.com" do not match.
