Web Gallery 'Preview in browser' error

Hi All,
I am hoping someone can possibly help me out?
Everytime I try and preview a web gallery in my browser I just get a word pad file open similar to what I have copy and pasted underneath. I have tried different web engines and still I get a similar response every time I try and 'preview in broswer'. I have tried everything I can think of bar reinstalling LR.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
Darrell

How are you launching the web gallery? What type of template are you using? I simply double click on the html page in the gallery folder and it launches whatever browser I have associated with it. Could your .html page be associated with Word Pad? If so, that'd suggest a change.....

Preview in Browser error

Hi,
I am a novice, so forgive me. The preview in browser function has suddenly stopped working and returns 404 error (Firefox) or file not found (IE). --> http://ftp.name.com/TMP16w4ueh.html
I rebooted my laptop (Windows 7, running Web premium CS5) and that didn't fix the problem.
Thank you,
Trouvera

wait...what?
http://ftp.name.com/TMP16w4ueh.html?
Are you trying to use a testing server? Because your URL is formated like you're trying to upload the file to your actual live server to do a preview. I would double check your site settings (through the site manager) and make sure things are okay there. The url formatting, like I said, suggests your site definition is confused about whether you're using a testing server.

Web gallery Preview - not working

I just upgraded my Apple Mac Pro to OS X Yosemite, v10.10.3. I am running Photoshop & Bridge CS6. When I create an HTML Web Gallery in Photoshop (or Bridge, more accurately) I can no longer Preview the gallery before Saving it. Is there a compatibility problem between CS6 and Yosemite? Any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks. Mark Weidman

Hi Mark,
We are able to reproduce the issue on our end and the issue has been reported.
Once there is any update regarding the issue we will update you.
Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums.

Brigde CS5 in Windows 7 64bit - drops out photos in Web Gallery preview

Is there a limit to the number of photos that web gallery will display? I created a web gallery and then started over again as instructions I read stated that I should put the TITLE on each photo. Once I put the title in, out of 24 photos that use to display, only 20 now display.
Can someone explain why this is happening? I haven't even gotten to the point of trying to embed in my website yet. Perhaps Bridge isn't the best tool to use?
Thanks to anyone who can offer any insight as to why this is happening.
Daisey

And right you are! After posting this message I started reading through all the help files and finally did find the same answer. Now my problem is the linking as I have a very strange hosting set up. Two sites, same directory. So all my images have broken links. Something new to work out!
Cheers!

Web gallery and aol browser

my parents using a pc cannot access our pictures uploaded using the aol browser - is web gallert not compatible with the aol browser? o

Not sure. AOL might be outdated. I would download Firefox for them. Even if they connect via AOL, once connected Firefox will run.

Bridge Web Gallery Output Problems

I have just set up a new MacPro.
I have downloaded and Activitated Bridge & Photoshop CC
However I can't create a web gallery, I get two error messages...
When I try to save a Web Gallery I get "save location does not exist"
If I try to preview in browser I get "Target folder cannot be created"
If I try to create a PDF I get "there is insufficient disc space to complete this operation"
However if I sign in on my old MacPro everything works as normal.
Any help anyone?
Peter

Update...
After searching the internet I have found a bizarre solution.
I had done a clean install on my new MacPro and downloaded Photoshop CC 2014 and Bridge CC (wanted a clean new machine)
On my old MacPro I had Photoshop CC 2014 and Bridge CC plus Photoshop CC
I just copied Photoshop CC from old machine - opened it - closed it - and NOW Bridge CC is creating web galleries and PDFs
Please Adobe do something about this!

Preview in browser - Opera issue?

I just re-installed LR2 with some changes to video settings and uninstalled 1.4.1 and now I have another issue.
When I go to preview a web gallery my default browser (Opera 9.51) opens with three separate tabs:
1 ) file:/C:/Documents (error page)
2 ) and.com
3 ) settings.com
Anyone else experience this?
XP-64 (LR2 64-bit)

I should add that this is a plain vanilla HTML site, so I wouldn't think that any scripting language issues would be present.

Low quality images in web gallery from Output Module

So when I create a web gallery slideshow using the output module I get SUPER-low quality images, like big jagged, pixellated lines in place of any diagonal line in the pictures. However, only photos in the portrait orientation are affected by this problem. Landscape-oriented photos look perfectly normal, just smaller.
My first thought was that maybe the images were low quality in the web gallery preview but wouldn't be in the actual saved file, but alas I saved the index.html file and when I preview it in my web browser I get the same result with the portrait-oriented photos.
Any idea how to fix this? Other than only using landscape photos in my gallery of course!
Thanks!

The same problem here. I've noticed it just yesterday, but my Safari rendering is affected the same way.
I don't think it has anything to do with the recent updates. I reinstalled my MacOS X Leopard day ago and all the images (jpg, gif) have been somehow in lower quality ever since that moment. Even before I installed all new updates today.
The strangest think is, that it wasn't like this before the reinstallation. I used the same media, and I have, indeed, the same machine.
I'm hopeless. Have you already found some solution? Or anybody? Would be great...

Web Gallery, iWeb, and iPhone

I just added a web gallery preview to my iWeb site. When I view it on my iPhone, there is a lego looking block with a ? in it. It won't show the preview of the web gallery. There is also no link to actually look at the pictures. Does anyone know if I am doing something wrong or if that is how it is supposed to be?

I wouldn't think it would flash as they know that the iPhone can't handle flash. It's kind of frustrating that one thing from the company doesn't work with another part of it.

Web Gallery Widget Help

I am trying to place a web gallery widget onto my iWeb page. I have been successful at that and can see the web gallery preview after it is placed. However, when I save the page, then publish to dotMac, then view the page in Safari, the web widget box where the preview should be is completely black. The link to the dotMac web gallery works fine, just no preview. This used to work fine when I was using the "Highlighter" web template but not since I switched to the "Modern Frame" web template.

Try deleting the widget, reloading it into the iWeb page and then doing a "Publish all to .Mac".

Syncing Web Gallery album

Prior to upgrading to iPhone 2.0 and iTunes 7.7, I could select a Web Gallery to sync to iPhone from within iTunes. Now my Galleries don't show up for me to select and sync.
My only guess is that they just want you to go directly to the Web Gallery using your browser. Given that I have a 1st gen, some of my larger Galleries take a long time to load when I'm on the cell network. Because of this I like to have my Galleries cached on my iPhone.
My only work-around is to create a standard album and manually transfer pics to both albums when I want to add photos. That will work, but I'm kind of bummed that they changed the way this works.
Cheers!

I absolutely second that!
I filter my key photos to Web Galleries, available to friends and family across the globe. So far I have synced the same selections of photos over to my iPhone, so that I can show these when offline, for example when overseas, in planes etc.
Is this really a lost functionality?? If so, it is time to file a functionality request with Apple!

Can't export web gallery in lightroom3

Lightroom3 web gallery will not load error occurred whileing uploading web gallery images. : the server could not be found
i checked my internet speed, its fine, i checked with my website host, no prolem there. the setting in lightroom for web export have not changed. i do not have too many programs running or not enought ram.
any suggestions?

Hello - I don't have a solution, but I wanted to post some observations: Each time I click upload, a folder is created or some files are transferred to the host until all the folders have been created on the remote host. In other words, the FTP transfer continues until a MKD command is sent to the host. After that, LR throws an error and stops.
I even went to the extent of deleting all the files from a working gallery structure on the remote host, leaving the folders intact. One click on "Upload" copied all the files into the structure as desired with no error message.
My analysis is that the return code from the FTP host following a successful MKD command is being misinterpreted my LR as an error.
This stops the FTP transfer, but the folder is OK and in the right place on the host. The next upload command either creates another folder, or copies files to the host. Once the folder structure has been created on the host and the Upload contains only files, it goes OK.
A crummy work-around would be to keep an empty gallery folder structure at the client end, copy that via another FTP host, then have LR fill it up.

Web Gallery not showing in Aperture's browser window.

Hi, I hope someone can help me with this. I create web galleries all the time and they work fine. For some reason when I create a new web gallery, instead of seeing the interface with the web preview (where you get the all the setting for customizing the web gallery and the export/publish buttons), I just see the image thumbnails in the Aperture browser. I even went to web galleries from old projects and is displaying the same way. Has anyone had this problem? Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Index.html created by Bridge Web Gallery has VBGetSwfVer error

I'm running CS6 under Win7 and IE9. I have used Bridge to create a web gallery but when I try and execute the generated index.html file I get a (script?) error:
Clicking eather Yes or No has no impact - just a blank screen.
I have not modified the generated index.html. Also, it does not matter if I have used CS5 or CS6. The generated file works elsewhere (at college Win7, CS5) so it has to be something to do with a setting on my PC but what?
I have reinstalled the latest version of Flash Player and I have the correct add-on enabled:
What's wrong?
Line 116 reads: versionStr = VBGetSwfVer(i);
The function is defined on line 55+"
Function VBGetSwfVer(i)
on error resume next
Dim swControl, swVersion
swVersion = 0
set swControl = CreateObject("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash." + CStr(i))
if (IsObject(swControl)) then
swVersion = swControl.GetVariable("$version")
end if
VBGetSwfVer = swVersion
End Function
I'm stumped - help please.

Hi Mike,
glad you got it working. I did take a look at this page:

and this page:

I know you said you moved foldes around until it started working - that's a bit drastic and lucky that none of your links got broken :-)
Back to the folder names. You should never use upper case NOR use spaces when naming folders or files. You may end up with browser incompatibilityand some servers can choke if type of naming convention is used. Also some hosts don't support upper case,(linux in particular),. It's best to use lower case at all times and if you need a space use an underscore or hyphen instead. eg: custom-business-card-designs/
Now if you want to go and rename any folders or files, fo it all via the Dreamweaver File Panel, so that DW can keep track of what you're changing, so that you don't get broken links.
Actually now that you mentioned moving folders etc., are you working in a Defined Dreamweaver Site? That's the very first thing you need to set up when starting a new project in Dreamweaver:
Define a site:

Hope some of this helps :-)
