Webcam link in iWeb

Hi.
I try to get a LIVE picture grab in iWeb.
But only thing i get is a url-link, not the live picture grab?
Is that possible in iWeb?
So the link is pointing to a webcam, and ends with "image.jpg"
www.namex.org:12345/image.jpg
just a example name
I was hoping i can see then a picture.
Thanks.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for your answer.
Yes it needs more html code if you want to see it LIVE.
I only want to see a single picture grab.
A Actual still-picture grab.
And if they want to see it live, then you can click on a link to go to it.
But i like to have on a iWeb page, a grabbed picture without clicking.
Just a s a photo, but then from a remote camera.

How do I link an iWeb site to a Yahoo store?

Hi all,
I designed an iWeb site for a friend, she is hosted at Yahoo Small Business. She also wanted to use Yahoo ecommerce does anyone know how to link an iWeb site to a Yahoo store? Yahoo uses store tags which they tell me can't be used in iWeb I was hoping to just link the ecommerce store I created in Yahoo to a store link in iWeb like a separate page. But I don't know how or if that will work. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Marilyn

Hi,
LOL, you are absolutely correct I am moaning and groaning and you are correct about the tech suport the reason I am so frustrated.
The website is www.papeteriecollections.com (iWeb)
The Yahoo store is store.papeteriecollections.com
The yahoo store is set up to the point of store tags. I was able to link the store to the site itself but not the items in the store to the items in the website. That's where the tags come in. From yahoo I copied their code from the item and then pasted it into iWeb. The link worked from iWeb back to the yahoo store, but not after publishing it. So then I tried the (html snippet) in iWeb and pasted the store tag code in there at the bottom of one of the items in my site, and order button appeared. (good thing) but it didn't work either. please see below:
I hope this makes better sense and I apologize for being a baby!
Thanks

Rename buttons or embedded links in iWeb - another language?

Hi, need to change the embedded, default links in iweb to another language. Fora example, rename the play slideshow, subscribe, or download options found on many of the iWeb templates. How can I do this?
Thanks

. How can I change the language in OS?
You go to system prefs/internationa/languages and move your language to the top of the list, using the Edit button if necessary. But there is no Greek localization for the OS, unless you have perhaps bought your machine in Greece, where a seller like Rainbow might have added his own software for that.
The 18 localizations that come with OS X are listed in its tech specs:

What is a disabled link in iweb?

when you define the format (i.e. colors) for a link, you have the option for a disabled link color. In what scenario would a link in iWeb be disabled?
thanks
bob

I take it for the link in the navbar of the page you're on. However in iWeb the like is still active but just refreshed the page. In some sites the link would be disabled but the color would indicate that's the page you're on.

Adding a webcam to an iWeb site

Hi, i have an old firewire Apple isight webcam, and was wondering if it was possible to use it to create a webpage with a webcam so i could view the plot of land out side of my house while i'm at work.
If iWeb isnt the best tool for this what other software would be best??
Many thanks
Jay

Wyodor's suggestion is certainly a good one.
Additionally, you can consider Security Spy or some of the other alternatives from this User Tip:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2013310
Depending on your specific needs, applications from the sections entitled "Webcam Apps"
and "Sight as a surveillance or Nanny cam" are worth considering for your stated purpose.
If you have experience or are willing to do some research, you could stream live video using Apple's
QuickTime Broadcaster and QuickTime Streaming Server. While these professional applications are free
to the user, they require much more technical expertise to setup and configure than some of the
third-party alternatives.

Pdf-file with clickable links from iweb 09

How can I create a pdf-file with clickable links from a website created in iweb 09?
All iwork apps have an export button, which fulfills this task, but iweb does not.
Any idea?

I am running 10.5.6 on a MacBook Pro 2.53 GHz. I create my PDFs via the print dialogue. I tried to create a PDF from iweb with Hyperlinks activated and all links are dead. I tried to create the PDF from the Safari window, were all links are active, and – funny enough – sometimes all, sometimes half of my links are dead. But most of them do not work. As soon as I create PDFs from third party sites, everything works fine.

How to break link between iWeb and web gallery?

I have created an external webpage with the use of iWeb, and I have inserted the photos widget through the web gallery which sits on my personal .Mac account (ie. different to the external website which has an independent - no mac - .com address)
I would like people to view the picture widget on the external website (a business website) I have created, but I do not want them to click on it and then be directed to my home web gallery. Basically I just want them to be able to see the rolling pictures, but nothing more.
Does anyone know how to avoid this link from working?

Hi Kodi,
As far as I know, the object link to material is part of SAP standard customer delivery. Then there is really small customer settings you have to maitain, actually the fields Destination and Web server, as the SAP never knows the name of the system, which customer will use.
Or you talk about others than the 0PLANTMATERIAL, 0PLANTMAT_LONG. If you create new object link type, the install guide 'Collaboration Projects (cProjects): Guide Impl. Object Link ' in the https://websmp105.sap-ag.de/plm-inst should give you detailded information.
Kind regards,

Photo Album 'Linked' on iWeb..

I'm trying to pre-stage a photo page that I can update and publish after an event with the pictures I've taken throughout the day.
I created two photo pages and a 'home' page. The photo pages have my own custom made 'space holders' currently placed there and I plan on replacing them later with albums from the individual subjects from the event, however during a test I tried placing an album on the page - Now, acording to the instructions from iWeb, once I've done this (according to iWebs own instructions) it should automatically use the first image of the folder as the image on the page as well as a link to a 'new' hidden page that wold contain the rest of the albums images.
When I tried this in practice, it instead drops ALL the images from the folder onto the page and doesn't create these linked pages that the instructions speak of. What am I doing wrong? Is there some step that I'm missing?
Thanks for the help ahead of time...

I think you are mixing up two different things.
If you drag an iphoto album to a regular iweb page, I believe it will make this link and page as you say. However...............

This is how a photo page works. When you drop a whole bunch of photos on there, it fills up the page with the photos.
If you want to use the method you have stated above, don't create photo pages ahead of time. Let iWeb create them for you when you drag the album on another (presumably main index) page.

Linking non-iWeb photo galleries

I have been building flash web galleries with such programs as Lightroom and Slideshow Pro. They are easy to add to a GoLive site, but I haven't figured out how to do this with iWeb. I can upload them to a server and link to them as external links, but I can't find a way to integrate them as part of the iWeb site so it can all be uploaded together as I do with GoLive. What am I missing, or is it a limitation of iWeb?
Thanks,
Peter

If you were publishing to .mac and using iphoto web galleries you would have the option to insert from the iweb menu.
Other than that I believe you would have to upload and link.
good luck

Dead links in iWeb site - IE only

I have just published my first iWeb site: www.envisioningchange.ca
All seems to work great in Safari and Firefox (though plug-in for social media sharing "Add This" is down right now), however many of the links, some of them in the text (not just nav links) are dead when viewed in Internet Explorer. I have searched for a solution to this on various forums and have not found anything specific to this issue.
Anybody able to help?
Many thanks!

Hi Roddy
Thanks so much for the replies and the super informative links! Unfortunately, following the instructions to insert drop shadows before putting images into iWeb resulted in a slightly different appearance and alignment to the image...one I'm not totally pleased with. If it's the only thing that works, I may go that route. The thing is, each page seems to behave differently, so I am unconvinced that this is the problem, since each page has an image with drop shadow, but some have active links and others do not.
I would rather not watermark the images for a few reasons. I'm actually rather pleased with the transparent overlay to prevent right-click downloading.
I checked the site on IE this morning and did not see any of the text mis-alignment you mentioned. Any chance you could send a screenshot?
Problem continues to be a mix of link issues, including seemingly randlom links that are completely dead (both external and internal links), some with only half the link active (need to move mouse over the whole text to find an active part).
One thing I did notice this morning is that as the home page was loading the image, the split second before the image was up, the links were active. As soon as the image was up, the links were dead. And this was after I removed the drop shadow on that page!
Any further thoughts would be most welcome!

Can't navigate using back button from web gallery linked to iweb page

I have a web gallery that I enabled as a hyperlink to my iweb site. When I go to the gallery from a web page, I don't have any problem navigating to the gallery to view photos, but I am unable to navigate back to the web page using the "back" button. Instead I have to relaunch my web page in Safari; otherwise I would be "stuck" on the gallery unable to navigate to other web pages.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

Load the gallery in your browser and copy the URL.
Create a text or image link and in the "Link" inspector select it as an eternal link.
Paste the gallery URL into the box and check "Open link in new window".
This way, the gallery window can be opened and closed but your original webpage will remain.

Creating Target links from iweb blog

how can i create a link that will open a new window and not navigate from my blog? iweb automatically inserts 'http://' and if i add a link like
'jack johson - do you remember'
iweb reads it as: http://<a href="http....
this option should be a must have for any blog software. so how can i do it in iweb??

Welcome to the discussions, tcameron.
Right now, there's no way to do this from within iWeb, though if you know how to edit the HTML, you can always change it on the server.

No thumbnail when i link my (Iweb) site onto Digg or Facebook

Hello everyone!
I looked everywhere to find a way for having a thumbnail of my Iweb website appear when I put its link on Digg or Facebook.
I have found this:
Enable Thumbnails | Digg About
about editing the metatags.
I have checked the html file of my homepage (i want the thumbnail to be the picture displayed on my homepage) and i already have "title", "description" and "image_src" as they request, but with a lot more stuff in between.
Any help would be great!!!
Thanks,
Brian

Targeting links in IWEB (_blank,_top, etc.)

When coding in HTML or using a program like Dreamweaver to write the code, one can add the "Target" attribute to a link to control whether that link opens in a new window (target="_blank"), in place of the old page, (target="_self"), or on the "_top" or "_parent" levels. Is it possible to do this in IWeb? When I'm adding a link to an external URL, I'd like to be able to have it open in a new window ("_blank"). I suppose I could export my site via IWeb to a folder, add the target attributes myself, and then upload the files to my .mac account. But then I'd lose some of the other functionality Iweb permits when publishing directly to .mac. Suggestions?

You have to do it post-publishing
