When I insert a format extension the design view disappears?

Hi,
I'm just following one of the tutorial from Lynda.com and found that when I change the format of a variable from a record set something very odd happens ... certainly not what happens in the tutorial.
Okay .. here is what I'm doing ...
I've installed the extension 'PHP Numeric Formats' from the Adobe Exchange and restart DWeaver.
I select the price variable {rsTitles.price} go to Bindings and change the format to the USDollar and as soon as the format is inserted all the images, formatting and text disappears in the design view and is replaced by a number of PHP icons.
Going to Live mode it is displaying ok ... but not being able to see what's going on in the design view is going to limit things somewhat.
All the other formats from the 'PHP Numeric Formats' have the same effect.
I also installed 'PHP Server Formats' (latest version from the programmers website) and the date format works ok .. but doesn't seem to have any currency options.
So first question is: Why is the above problem happening ... Does this happen to anyone else?
2nd question is: May you know of a better extension for currency and numeric formats. that doesn't cause the design view to disappear?
Many thanks for your time and I would really appreciate any help.
Best wishes,
Nick
I've attached some screenshots of the problem

Hi,
Doh! I've just realised what is happening ... my computer restarted but the WampServer (local.host) was not restarted and was not running at the time of applying the extensions. Once it is up and running all the currencies formats work just fine .... as I said before ... doh!
If your looking for formating for currency in an exstension ... I've been using 'FX PHP Formats' avaliable for download free here after registering:

    Hi,
    Which operating system are you running on?
    Which version of Photoshop Elements are you using?
    The automatic running is usually invoke by your operating system. For instance in Windows 7, go to the control panel and select Autoplay. There, look for the action when pictures are detected - it is probably set to elements. Set it as you want.

  • Visual Studio 2013 hangs/freezes when trying to click the designer view

    my Visual Studio 2013 update 1 hangs/freezes when trying to click the designer view, after clicking "Design" I can not click "split" neather "Source". What can I do ? I already tried to set the "HTML (Web Forms) Editor
    " as "Default"... thanks for support.
    In VS2010 the same worked fine.
    I "Run as Administrator".
    ty for help

    Hi,
    I assume that you are not using VS2013 Express version. In order to get the reason about the hang issue, please use devenv /log to gather activity.xm log and find HR error from this log.If it shows some package corrupt, try to repair your VS.
    Here are my general suggestions:
    Please try to run devenv /ResetSettings (in command prompt) to eliminate the related potential settings problem.
    Try disabling Add-ins (e.g. “Tools” | “Add-in Manager”) or run “devenv.exe /SafeMode”.This can eliminate the possibility that third party Add-ins or packages are causing problems. Also you can try these command lines:
    devenv.exe /resetskippkgs and devenv.exe /resetuserdata 
    Try to create a new user account. This can help isolate user profile corruption related causes.
    If the suggestions above are no help, please reinstall your VS.

  • Why when I publish template to FCPX the design appears as a thumbnail but the view shows the red warning screen with the Number 2?

    why when I publish template to FCPX the design appears as a thumbnail but the view shows the red warning screen with the Number 2?

    That is priceless!!!  Thanks!  I sure needed a good laugh after spending/wasting hours & days trying to either get my c6280 to give up on its Ink System Failure fixation, or find a decent replacement.  Unfortunately I need the Smart Web Printing feature that I guess only HP has, or I'd try a different brand. And now even HP has very few models with that available.
     My error msg is a little different from those previously stated, but close:  0xc18a0201.  Even tho there were frustrations with my c6280, I did like several of its unique features which are hard to find now under $100.  I hate how HP (& I suppose other brands also) are CONSTANTLY changing models & then of course ink cartridges.
    Oh heavens, I've had the c6280 a whopping 2 1/2 years!   I'm sure they want us poor slobs to have to buy a new one every year & a day!  To say nothing of the exorbitant prices for ink.  And now if this one is really dead in the water, I have SIX unused #02 ink cartridges which I cannot return---I got them in a combo pack, & for some reason have wound up with THREE lite pink & THREE lite blue cartridges, while having to buy extras of the other colors, that ran out before the others!!!   Yeah, & what's with that not being able to print in BLACK if a color runs out????
    Anyway I really loved your essay!   It's a classic!  And says it all!  I hate that we have to be 'slaves' to the electronic 'wonders'!!!

  • Design view disappears when I uncheck Restrict Page Occurrence

    Dear Adobe Forms Experts,
    I have an Adobe print form with two master pages: one mailing address page that should only occur once, as the first page, and then the main page, which can occur many times. I have been asked to make the mailing page conditional, based on the company code of the invoice. I followed a very useful discussion on SCN explaining how to do this with a HIDEPAGE global variable, wrapping all the fields on the page in a subform, and doing some FormCalc scripting for the subform.
    I was able to get the page to print as blank when the HIDEPAGE flag was set, but so far I have been unable to get the mailing page to go away altogether.
    I noticed that on the mailing page the "Restrict Page Occurrence" checkbox was checked, and the Min count was set to 1. Well, I thought, that could explain it; I'll just uncheck the "Restrict page Occurrence" checkbox, and all will be right with the world!
    Wrong! When I uncheck that checkbox, the Design View for my mailing master page disappears, and the mailing page never prints, regardless of the state of my HIDEPAGE global variable! When I recheck the checkbox, the design view reappears, and the mailing page goes back to printing a blank page when my HIDEPAGE flag is set.
    What in the world is going on here?! What am I doing wrong?
    Cheers,
    TerryB
    P.S. I am using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 9.0, and I believe the form was originally created using 9.0

    First off, in case anybody reading this in the future has any doubt, I will confirm that this discussion has morphed into the well-worn discussion on how to conditionally hide a page.
    Pavan,
        I am now working on a copy of the original form, so I have the freedom to do whatever I want. First off, thank you for the suggestion of right-clicking on the "data" very-top-level node in the hierarchy view, and selecting "Insert subform". That did the trick for adding the missing design view for my mailing page.
        I am now trying to reduce things to their simplest form, to reduce the number of places I could be going wrong. The mailing master page now contains nothing but a content area (which appears to be required). The design view for my mailing page now contains only two objects: the "D_HIDE_PAGE" flag, (bound to the global field in the interface, where I have put the code to conditionally set the flag), and a subform called "Show_Hide", which is set to "flowed". The flag field is wrapped in the Show_Hide subform. I added the following FormCalc code to the Initialize, form:ready, and layout:ready events of the Show_Hide subform:
    if ($.D_HIDE_PAGE == "X")
    then
    $.presence = "hidden" 
    endif
        When I do a print preview on the form for an invoice that does not set the flag, I see the label for my flag field on the mailing page. When I do a print preview for an invoice that DOES set the flag, I get a completely blank mailing page--but the blank page is NOT being suppressed!
        Just for grins I also tried adding the same FormCalc code to the same 3 events of the top-level subform of the design view (the one I added by right-clicking on the "data" node in the hierarchy view; I called this subform "MAIL_DESIGN"). Same results as before.
        I believe I've followed all the steps laid out in the many SCN discussions on this topic--but obviously I am still missing something. Any clues where I may have gone wrong?
    Cheers,
    TerryB

  • Customize the design view of an element?

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a way to customize how an element is rendered
    in the design view. The element is essentially a block of xml that
    gets translated to html using javascript when the page is loaded.
    But of course, it isn't rendered by default in Dreamweaver's design
    view. Is there a way I can get the xml to show up in the design
    view as, at the very least, a box?
    As a point of reference, I noticed that the Spry extensions
    have a customized design time view. I guess I want to do something
    similar to that.
    Thanks.

    Mike,

    I'm not sure, but here's a tip that may help you find out.
    For Preview
    in Browser, turn on "using Temp files". Notive that when you
    PIB, and
    then View Source in the browser, all of the translated tags
    (e.g.
    <MM:BeginLock>) are still in the page.
    Now, search around in DW for other server-side elements that
    have the
    behavior that you want, then PIB, and look at the translated
    source to
    see how they are tranlated.

    I am not sure exactly where that's done, but it's in the Spry
    translation process.

  • Terrible..Links appear on the Design View

    Dear webmates: I have updated my DW with some new extensions,
    but .. oh surprise !! when I open my DW with a new projetc that
    contains links, these links also appear in the Design View and
    don't let me, for example justify Centered the whole page... Beside
    it, it is unconfortable to have such links on the Design View...
    they never appeared before... Please help me.. My nose say that it
    is something up to the setup.. but don't know where exactly it is
    supposed to be fixed,.... Appreciate your answers,

    You can try this simple fix -
    Quit DW.
    Find this folder -
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
    8\Configuration
    (these folders are normally hidden - you may have to use
    Explorer > Tools >
    Folder Options to unhide them)
    and delete it.
    Restart DW. Works better?

  • Can not see the design view nor the java file in CentOS

    Hi all. I've recently installed JSC2 in CentOS. I find this tool really useful. But I have a problem with the design view and the java file view. At the beginning, when I first create a Page1.jsp, I can see the design view and the java view with no problem. I run apps correctly. But after a while, I get a "null pointer exception" error and I am able to see only the jsp view, not the others. I don't even have the option to see the Design and Java views. And the page icon in the project window appears to be darker than a well working page. I'm not really sure what sequence of actions I do to get this error, it just suddenly happens. What I've done so far in JSC2 is to link to pages in the Page Navigation view. It works fine for a while, but after a while I get the error I've described.

    Yes, if I do that It happens the same. I've tried everything. Now I'm using Window$ 2000 and it works properly. Thanks anyway.

  • Is there any way to display the Design View in fluid grid pages?

    After upgrading to the newest version of DW CC 2014, I noticed that the Design View is disabled in Fluid Grid pages. You can only use the Live View to edit those pages. The Design/Live button displays on non-fluid pages.
    I'm wondering if there is a work-around to allow Design View editing on fluid pages. It is a major hassle to try to edit some things in the Live View. It would nice to have a choice.

    Have you actually tried using is? Try this?
    1) Create a new Responsive Layout. We’ll call it demo.php, fluid.css and the usual accompanying DW files.
    2) Enter demo.php and progress is normal. Everything works. You can choose to view both Live and Display and edit accordingly.
    3) Close down DW.
    4) Open DW and open demo.php
    5) There is NO LONGER a Display View option and Live View does not EDIT. (at least it doesn't for me)
    6) I can ONLY edit work in CODE view.
    Thus, on brand new files, all is fine. The moment DW is closed and the files becomes “old” it can no longer be seen or edited properly.
    How am I supposed to provide support to clients? How can I access a Responsive site I built last week when Live View will not edit and Display will not display?
    I feel this is a programming error, not a purposeful act.

  • Why is the Design View appearing distorted?

    I have been designing an event page template in HTML and CSS to be used by my co-worker who handles all of our events and doesn't know how to write in HTML.
    When I enter the HTML into the Event Content (HTML) entry box, everything works fine. The page looks like it should when I preview it, but when I change to Design View the page becomes distorted and skewed. This makes it nearly impossible to make any changes that aren't made in HTML View because the cursor jumps all over the page when I attempt to enter information in Design View. If it were just me this would not be a problem because I could change the event info on the HTML side, but because my co-worker has never used HTML I would like to get the Design View to show the page properly.
    Is there anyway to correct the appearance of the Design View, so it displays the page correctly? Thanks for your help!!!

    Please check the screenshot: https://grabb.worldsecuresystems.com/Grid_Overlay.png
    The overlay shows the column layout as defined using the Columns setting in the Site Properties. This is simply to help in laying out the site content using grid systems like 960. You can read more about grid systems at http://960.gs/

  • I have a component like the following and it completely crashes the design view in flex builder

    I have a component like the following and it completely crashes the design view in flex builder.I can see anything in the layout. Everything compliles fine and looks normal in the outline view. Any ideas whats wrong. If I remove the AdvancedDataGridColumnGroup's all looks fine

    When using grouped columns you should change the <mx:columns> to <mx:groupedColumns>, I ran this example in a sandbox app and it works fine.

  • Going back to Flash builder 4 on Mac because of the design view

    I've got installed the Flash builder 4.6 in a Mountain Lion Mac.
    I have imported a project that I did some years ago with Flex 3. Everything seems to be ok until I try to see the design view. I can't see anything, it is just empty. I know that it is not necessary but it helps me a lot.
    I've been searching in this forum and my conclusion is that I've got to go back to Flash Builder 4.
    I would be very grateful if anyone could help me with the next questions:
    1- Can I work with Flas Builder 4 with my current serial from flash builder 4.6?
    2- Should I uninstall 4.6 before using 4?
    Thanks!

    Hi Chris
    Thanks for your reply.
    I had already seen that post, and the answers were not applicable to me. But thankfully I have found the solution now!
    I Googled the error message: "org.apache.xerces.dom.DeferredElementImpl.getTextContent()Ljava/lang/ String", and came across the following bug report:
    http://code.google.com/p/alkwarel/issues/detail?id=10
    As suggested in the link above, I deleted the xerces.jar  located in user.home/Library/Java/Extensions/. I then cleaned my project, and FB4 for Mac finally exported the release build!
    That bug has been annoying me for MONTHS. I'm so happy it's fixed now!
    All the best,
    Zabeen
