Dreamweaver CS4 check tutorial Magazine - browser issue

Hi all, I am fairly new to web design (coming from a graphic design background) and I'm going through the (Super) tutorials for Adobe Dreamweaver. I recently finished the 'Check Magazine' tutorial but have two slightly different results when I view the site in Safari/Firefox, it's probably something really obvious so apologies in advance for my craziness! Please can someone help? I have attached a screenshot of them being viewed in Safari/Firefox, also copied the code/CSS below.

Thank you in advance!

Hi all, I am relatively new to web design (coming from a graphic design background)

If you allow me, I would like to give you some advice. Based on the people I've seen come and go through this forum since I arrived here with DW2 (NOT CS2), I must say that people of demographic data are generally those who struggle the most with DW. I think it's because they have difficulty with the notion that the web is NOT a printed page, which means that things can flex size width/height and the same text after you have created the page. I think it is also because they are so accustomed to using a "drag and drop" approach layout design that they extrapolate approaching (or try) in DW. I can tell you categorically that being stuck in these two modes will drive you nuts in DW. I invite you to bite the bullet and learn some HTML and CSS. You will probably find without this basic understanding, totally mysterious DW.

Now - your screenshots illustrate my first point. Your Firefox is configured to display text in a larger default size than Safari. The container for this text extends vertically accordingly, and this text box becomes greater. You can't stop that from happening - the user has always the option to change their browser to display text larger or smaller as you expected. The key is that all of your page layouts must be built to accommodate this kind of unexpected text size change.

A good place to start your familiarity with HTML and CSS by ramp is here - http://www.w3schools.com!

Good luck...

Dreamweaver CS4 Portable border issue

Hello
, I am working on a site and have a small table on a page that is styled with CSS. Whatever I can't do black stripper borders to each individual cell. There seems to be no border to the table, just each cell. The page can be found here:http://www.colinbowling.com/monster_banners/contact.html>. I use Dreamweaver CS4.
Can anyone on me any advice for what to do?
Cheer
Colin.

First of all, I highly recommend you read up on CSS. I have the impression that you have downloaded a template from somewhere and do not understand how to edit.

http://www.w3schools.com/CSS/

The table is id is table2 by code:

For now, all you have in your code is:

{#table_2}

border: thin solid #000;

border-collapse: collapse;

make-weight: bold;

text-align: center;

do-size: 14px;

}

Simply apply a style to the cells as table2:

#table_2 td {border: thin solid #000000 ;}}

Problems of Dreamweaver CS4 on Windows 7

Recently got a new computer running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit, I reinstalled Dreamweaver CS4 32 bit and copied all the files data for my sites on my old computer running Windows XP Professional. The data on the XP machine files were located in Documents and Settings / My Documents/Web site on the Windows 7 machine I put the site in Documents / My Documents/Web site.
When I open Dreamweaver on the Windows 7 machine and use Site Manager to add the site to the repository and try to view the site in Firefox or Internet Explorer preview will load the page however no style sheet information load only the Javascript for my Gallery work. I checked the source references and it of the same on the Windows 7 machine and the XP machine. Thinking it was just a matter of a broken link source (even if the images in the Gallery appear correctly in Dreamweaver) I added images from the source to the gallery in Dreamweaver on Windows 7 computer. When I went to the preview of the browser once more the Gallery did not work.
I also noticed that the options and sometimes signs disappear and reappear not until the program is closed and then reopened.
Is there a compatibility issue with Dreamweaver CS4 32-bit and 64-bit Windows 7 which would cause this kind of problem?

I upgraded from Dreamweaver CS4 to CS6. but now when I want to download, I "MFP error - cannot establish a connection to the host. I spent hours with the technician of the host and we can't find the error. I reinstalled DW4 and it connects to accommodate perfectly. Anyone else seen this problem?
Mac OS 10.8.5

None of these issues are causing the error in DW CS6. We double-checked all of them and we did everything right. Also I have exactly the same SiteSetup in DW CS4 and that works perfectly well. Might need to factor 6 which did not exist in the 4? Something that is not in the SiteSetup but in a hidden dialog box?
I can also download my host using Fetch, a third party FTP. And like I said that DW CS4 works very well. So the problem is not with my host, sound with DW CS6 in particular.

You are most likely missing something fairly simple (some goofy box cache you in some menus random). The best way to solve this problem, without playing 20 questions...

1 open the site in DWCS4 and go to Site > Manage Sites > export to create a your site settings .ste file.

2. close DWCS4 and open DWCS6

3. go to the Site > Manage Sites > Import to import the .ste file to create a new site at DWCS6

This will create an exact copy of your CS4 settings in CS6. If it still does not work, let know us and someone should have another idea for you.

Dreamweaver CS4 and IE 5.2 for Mac problem

I'm testing my new/first site. I use Dreamweaver CS4. Horizontal Spry menu bar works very well in Internet Explorer and Safari, but not in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.2 for Mac 5.2.3 (5815.1). The menu bar horizontal becomes vertical and the submenus are not available. I ran to each Web page and my CSS files browser compatibility tests and they don't come back "no problems found". What can I do to fix the problem? I have a PC (Vista) and use my neighbor's Mac to check the browser. Thank you.

Don't worry if your site doesn't work at all in Internet Explorer for Mac. It's outdated software that has not been developed since Jaguar/Panther. In no way reflects IE on Windows, and statistics show the majority of Mac users use Safari or Firefox with Camino and opera in behind them.

Problems using frames in Dreamweaver Cs4

I use Dreamweaver cs4 and am trying to create a new web site. Using 3 images on my page. Try to have a B & W photo as background for 1 frame and pictures of children of color in another frame. Looks great in the browser Viewer, but once downloaded, frames with photos are blank or display only text and no pictures are displayed. In addition, none of the fonts that I have chosen for the test in one of the frames appear. Only fonts for all basic text. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Frames?

Hi Daved65972939,

Creative suite Adobe CS 4 is a very old software and the operating system you are using is the most recent, so there may be compatibility issues that adobe has not tested these applications on newer operating systems.

However, you can try downloading & installing the installer for Adobe creative suite 4 CS from following link:

Download Adobe Creative Suite 4 products

Compare the size of the file downloaded with the display on the Web page.

Please be sure to select the language as Universal English as when I saw your Adobe ID (email address) you used to post here, I found that you have a Dreamweaver CS 4 to WIN what EU language recorded thereon.

Dreamweaver CS4 access ASP VBScript - Serverwechsel keine Datenbankanbindung durch

Seit vielen Jahren am ich an einer application mit Dreamweaver in der Version CS4, und einer Microsoft Access data base. Die Servertechnologie ist ASP mit als script language VBScript.
Nun official mir mein bisheriger provider a dass mein appearance auf einem veralteten Webserver so welcher die Sicherheitsbestimmungen nicht mehr und von nicht mehr wird supported Microsoft standards. Systembedingt von der Wirtschaftlichkeit Webserver to Pascal Zukunft often werden.
Was Wenn mein appearance weiter tumors soll, muss das Ganze a new server postage ore werden auch passiert ist schon auf. Ist auf dem neuen Server die data base nicht mehr Nur mit der application can.
Geändert hat sich folgendes: auf dem previous server so:
.NET framework 1.1.4322 und 5.8 VB-Script
Auf dem neuen server so ein Windows-IIS 8 mit ASP 3.5 4.5 und sowie VBScript 5.8.
DAS sind die ich bekommen habe bisher information. Unklar ist von nach wo wo (ASP? und zu 3.5 ASP VBScript? zu VBScript 5.8) ich upgraden would.
Mein rat dazu provider (da er selbst keine zu ASP browser skills) einen programmers mit ASP - und Serverkenntnissen zu suchen, der mir die results will im Code physician kann. ICH würde ja auch like meinen Dreamweaver al, faith aber nicht dass ich allein das jetzige problem losen wurde damit, sei denn ich mire frock von a und das möchte ich eher draft.
VIELLEICHT kann ja mit recht wenig justification die Datenbankverbindung wiederhergestellt werden.
Oder're gibt einen other provider der mich mit meinem system aufnehmen wurde und mir mehr Zeit gibt something're auf den newest Stand zu bringen.
WER kann mir helfen oder Tipps give?

As far as I know, ASP 3.5 and 4.5 is for ASP.NET, which is different from the classic ASP. Dreamweaver used to have server for ASP.NET, but these behaviors have been removed from Dreamweaver CS4, because they were very up to date. Update to the latest version of Dreamweaver will not help you. I wish I could offer more help, but I think that you must find a competent programmer in ASP.NET.

Dreamweaver CS4 software updates

Hi people,
I bought Dreamweaver CS4 (version 10) a few years ago and just reinstalled the software. The product went very well. I'm trying to re - install the patches for this product, but can't seem to find on the Adobe site. The function of updates... no longer works for CS4 because of this product being retired. I noticed on the site of patches/updates to Dreamweaver Adobe - Dreamweaver Support Center: Updaters ( ) http://www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/downloads_updaters.html ) there are tasks for the editions of Dreamweaver earlier and later to CS4 / Version 10. Interesting.
Anyone know if this is an oversight by Adobe? I chatted with the customer service, who directed me to this forum. I may end up buying the new features of Adobe Creative Cloud, but wanted to check with you first.
Thank you
Jeff

I'm reasonably sure that dwcs4 ever updates.

Dreamweaver CS4, Microsoft Visual C * Runtime Library, "Runtime Error".

Hi, I got a runtime error when you work in Dreamweaver CS4. I searched the forum to find answers and I tried the only solution that I could find (change the name of the configuration file)... it has not worked for me, are there other solutions? My OS is Windows Vista Business thank you

Thank you for your answer, I would have responded earlier but I couldn't connect to Adobe. My problem has been resolved to try another method:

I got my first runtime error when I opened a text with Dreamweaver document I created on my desktop, as a first step, the file extension was. CSS.txt, I did a .css file and if I right click and 'open with' Dreamweaver I would get the runtime error.

Since then, I created a site definition and created all things in Dreamweaver and had no problem with the runtime errors.

I followed a tutorial on disk to decide and I really wanted to complete, but instead, I resized each image and put in model built-in Dreamweaver. I had to adjust because of the time sensitivity.

I'll definitely try slicing on my own time from there, lol

Thanks Preran!

Question of menus. XML trying to launch Dreamweaver CS4

I used Dreamweaver CS4 for many years on my Mac. I had a disk failure and had to reload all my apps from scratch, because there seems to be a problem with the time Machine upwards. Everything works well outside of Dreamweaver CS4, which shows an error message telling me to remove my menus.xml file and rename menus.bak menus.xml that everything just works.
I checked and this has been asked before but none of the previous answers I have found will work for me. Any new ideas?

Mavericks comes with Java SE7, DW must have Java SE 6.

When you configure the Local root folder, make sure that DW is to put the right way. I know that there is a glitch in DWCS4 that would essentially "on upward directory" folder even if you asking in the right place and click OK. (until a few weeks ago, I was still using DWCS4 and fought this issue whenever I made a new site)

Go to your site broken using Site definition > Manage Sites > change

Click the Advanced tab

Look at the text file box root Local. That's where DWCS4 love missing his shot upward. If the root folder of your site was supposed to be C:\Users\yourname\Desktop\Folder1 it will probably show C:\Users\yourname\Desktop instead. You should be able to change this manually by adding appropriate after the folder name.

Otherwise, the way to fix when you make a new site is to navigate to the correct location, twice when adding the local root folder in the Site definition process. Usually, he'll get the correct location on the second attempt.
