OT: Question for author David powers

• same old same old: the appeal of David Powers

  It was interesting to watch and read comments recently about the tangle of DW with database-driven sites.

  I use DW CS6 (12.03) Mac with Mountain Lion and have installed MAMP and runnning.

  I'm done religiously tute David Powers here.

  Question:

  Why am I getting her "dynamically files cannot be resolved due to an internal error" when I go to the page with the Live button?

  The page displays empty... Laughing out loud

  Can someone tell me the possible cause?

  I wonder why Adobe has left this for 3 years when (after all updates) the message is still displayed and development stops.

  Are the defective tutorial files, or am I missing soemthing?

  David: can shed you some light on this please?

  In order to track the problem, I created a new site on my MacBook Air running Mountain Lion and followed the steps in the tutorial, using a new download of the files. Everything worked exactly as planned.

  After finishing, I checked the version of Dreamweaver CS6. It turned out to be the original 12.0. I tried to apply the update 12.03, but could not. So, I uninstalled and downloaded again CS6. However, because I have a subscription to creative cloud, when I have updated the program, he maintained at 12.2.

  Also, I copied your code of the forum and who was running. It also displays correctly.

  I don't know if there is a problem with CS6 12.03, but it seems highly unlikely because the files work fine in Dreamweaver CC as well, even if I do not have the server behavior extension installed.

  The unusual thing only I see in your screenshots is the wildcard: php_test in the privileges of phpMyAdmin. However, we should not make a difference because Dreamweaver must clearly connect seamlessly to your database.

  The only other thing I see as a possible cause is the server parameter in the site configuration dialog box. Make sure that the check box is selected, not away.

  

• Seek help from David powers once again, please

  David,
  
  I am using your drop-down list of the script files page 197 of PHP Solutions. I have adapted successfully to read a list of PDFs of my subdirectories. The list of files is not on a base of data, but read in directly from a subdirectory.
  
  However, for the life of me, I can't understand how actually do one load the PDF file. I tried every syntax/combination in the action property that I can think of with no luck.
  
  What I would do is either: 1) select the PDF in the drop down menu and then have it load in the browser or the 2) select the PDF fromt the drop down then press a button 'Download' and the file to load in the browser.
  
  Can you please help me understand this?
  
  Thanks in advance. Here is my code so far.

  It's the kind of mistake that you should be able to diagnose quickly by
  looking at the code coloring. The error is mine, because I was
  just by typing in a News Reader, but the cause becomes immediately visible
  in Dreamweaver code view, because several lines after the leak of slash
  became red. This means that the following lines are treated as
  part of the chain. A backslash before a single quote, it turns
  in a quotation mark in a string.

  The answer is to escape the backslash:

  > $filepath = ' C:\xampp\htdocs\Garrison\PDFs\'.$getfile;

  Should be this:

  $filepath = ' C:\xampp\htdocs\Garrison\PDFs\\'.$getfile;

  You can also use forward slashes for the separator of directory like this:

  $filepath = ' C:/xampp/htdocs/Garrison/PDFs/'.$getfile;

• Is this a problem re CONCAT: David Powers, or a problem of magic quotes...

  I tried to understand this with the posts (and some info on the site of David, etc.), and I can't seem to understand the real problem.
  
  I'm working on a tutorial and I can't know if the error message is correct and this is an incorrect encoding inserted by DW (and if so, I can't understand what it takes to correct) or
  
  If there is a problem with DW8.0.2 like what will fix the fix that seems so hard to get, or
  
  If this goes in the direction of an example of why magic quotes must be turned off and if so, where and how can I turn off the correct code, and if not, how could it be properly corrected?
  
  Here is the error message:
  Parse Error: parse error, unexpected '=' expected ', 'or')' in < dittos > on line 34.
  
  Here's the code that reference:
  32 $Search_rsSearch = "abc";
  33 cases (isset(#txtSearch#)) {}
  34 $Search_rsSearch = (get_magic_quotes_gpc())? #txtSearch #: addslashes(#txtSearch#);
  35}
  36 @mysql_select_db ($database_dorknozzle, $dorknozzle);
  37 $query_rsSearch = sprintf ("SELECT * FROM EmployeeStore WHERE ItemName AS CONCAT('%%', %s,)")

  38 $rsSearch = mysql_query ($query_rsSearch, $dorknozzle) or die (mysql_error ());
  39 $row_rsSearch = mysql_fetch_assoc ($rsSearch);

  That will fix the part of your problem, but the error is caused by something
  Another thing:

  # is one of the characters used to comment on the part of a PHP script. I have
  think you have received it in the Dreamweaver Help files, which
  damage especially on this point. The show the runtime value
  expression as #formFieldName #, which isn't a ColdFusion, PHP model. You
  need to replace #txtSearch # with something like $_GET ['search'] or
  $_POST ['search'].

  What makes matters worse, is that the code inserted by 8.0.2 without the
  fix is also incorrect. Line 34 should be something like this:

  $Search_rsSearch = $_GET ['search'];

  Line 37 is also wrong.

  > 37 $query_rsSearch = sprintf ("SELECT * FROM EmployeeStore ItemName WHERE AS")
  > CONCAT('%%', %s,)
  (' > ' %%') ", GetSQLValueString ($Search_rsSearch,"text"));

  It should be this:

  $query_rsSearch = sprintf ("SELECT * FROM EmployeeStore WHERE ItemName")
  LIKE "%s", GetSQLValueString ('%'. $Search_rsSearch.) '%', 'text'));

• Help please David powers

  David,
  
  I use redirection to a personal page on page 515 of The Essential Guide to DWCS3 in the following form: $_SESSION [MM_Username] .php in the field "If the connection is successful.
  
  This does work for me the first time, that loading of the login page. I get a 404 error. However, it I click the back button and try it again it works. I have a hypothesis that the Session variable is used before the username, it draws from the DB, but I don't know enough to be sure. I tried to move the lines of variable assignment and he screwed up royally.
  
  This is performed on a live server. Below is my code that works if I hit the back button. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you for reminding me. There is a mistake in the book, I
  discovered during the Christmas period, if you forgot to send to friends of ED
  for the errata page.

  Do not use $_SESSION [MM_Username]. Use $loginUsername instead. He then worked.

• The Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS3 with CSS, Ajax, and PHP by David Powers

  The Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS3 with CSS, Ajax, and PHP by David powers:
  
  This book would help me learn more about Spry and Ajax and how applications may be lodged with them, if I have my e-commerce site works on a compiled C code cart (ShopSite) but supports scripts PHP server-side or is - this only for shopping carts based on PHP itself (like X-Cart)?
  
  I'm not sure. Someone please let me know if I can buy this book. Thank you.

  You don't need no prior knowledge of PHP or Ajax, but you must
  know the basics of HTML and CSS. As I say in the introduction, "You."
  don't need to be an expert, but do not have a curious mind.
  It teaches the basics of web site design, or he's trying to list
  each unique feature in Dreamweaver CS3. There are many other books
  to fill this gap. However, by working through this book, you will gain a
  in-depth knowledge of the most important features of Dreamweaver.

  The book provides detailed coverage of the features of Spry 1.4
  Dreamweaver CS3, which can be applied to any site. With minor
  adjustment, you can also use Spry 1.6. It is important to realize,
  However, the features of Spry/Ajax in Dreamweaver CS3 * cover of no
  asynchronous requests to the server. The ability to communicate
  asynchronously with the server has been added in Spry 1.6. If it has
  the asynchronous server calls and answers you are looking for, your
  programmer will need to dig into the documentation for Spry 1.6 on the
  Adobe Labs site and manually code it.

  The Spry features covered in the book are Spry, Spry UI widgets effects
  (menu accordion, tabbed and folding panels), Spry
  Widgets of validation and Spry XML data sets.

  Yes. All Spry techniques can be used on any web page. This is not
  you have to be a PHP one.

• Question for the geniuses of pictures only.

  Question for the geniuses of pictures only.

  You see, I started with iPhoto and later began to use Aperture.  With iPhoto and Aperture, you can have ALL the metadata below the thumbnails, (nice).  Well, I put all my images descriptions in the keywords section because it didn't really matter, because these programs could show them as thumbnails.

  Now, I use this wonderful program of Photos and I found out that it will ONLY show the title of"the image in the thumbnails.  I've got on 30 000 images with keywords but no title.  I want to move / copy the text in the keywords section in the section of the title. I'm not a computer scientist, I guess that my skills are in average.  But I can follow directions.

  Suggestions appreciated.

• Question for Microsoft Support; I have a huge amount of music files .m4a that I can not play on Windows Media Player?

  Question for Microsoft Support;
  I have a LARGE amount of files music .m4a in a storage drive stand alone that I downloaded from an old Apple computer have more possession of. I can't understand how to enter these data into my old Emachines computer Windows Vista run the Media Player program. I tried to copy a few files m4a manually in the file Media Player Music folder, but they do not play. I'm not really all that computer savvy and know only the basics, I need to use my computer really. Can you give me some step by step instructions how to get these converted files or whatever it is I need to do to get them to play and to integrate properly into my library if it is possible? If this isn't the case, I'll have to go out and buy a new Apple computer for my 60 GB music collection. In the past, that I've never had no real problem shooting files to leave this computer based Vista and convert these files to my old computers Apple Itunes Player. So what's the problem with your system of guys that done anyway this such a pain in the butt? I would really like to understand what exactly is happening with this issue? It's very frustrating for me. I'm a finish Carpenter not a computer programmer. Such things should not be so difficult for someone like me to understand. All I intend to buy a really nice computer, probably in the summer and was considering a Microsoft based computer. But if this kind of problem will be spread with Microsoft products, so maybe I should reconsider. help you can offer to alleviate this problem will be greatly appreciated.

  According to research on the Internet, Windows Media Player, atleast this is version 11 (included in Windows Vista and available for Windows XP SP2 +) cannot play Apple loseless type .m4a audio files without having to install any codecs.

  If you want to use Windows Media Player, you can follow the instructions mentioned here to install the necessary codecs and plugins.

  (In the related instructions above, in the first step talks about codecs - your .m4a files are files Apple loseless then follow the party referred to in the first stage about Apple loseless .m4a)

  Personally, I prefer using alternatives to Windows Media Player rather than installing codec packs.

  If you don't want to install codecs, download no matter what media player from "programs that open. M4A files"- Windows category list on this page.

  If you use a spare player - VLC Media Player is my choice.

  There is a selection list of the CPU (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) when creating VM, now my question is this amount of processor or number of processor?

  For example if I choose 5, then it means I selected 5 Fifth number of the processor or processors?

  This selection will be the number of vCPU, you give to your guests.  My suggestion would be to start with 1 vCPU and see how is the performance.

• Help with Adobe Dreamweaver tutorial (by David Powers)

  When you use Dreamweaver tutorial Adobe (create your first website by David Powers), I met my only problem to step 18 of the fourth part.  The insctruction is as follows:

  "Once you added properties to all the three rules, press F5 or click once in Design view to refresh the view.

  Look at what happened to the text. The h2 title has turned blue; the h3 title has been resized and now fits on a single line; and the text of the paragraph has been reduced in size (see Figure 16). »

  My problem is that changes to the text of the said does not happen.  Step 17 is a code to change the text as described above, and I entered the text, verbatum, checked several times (it was entered correctly).

  Here is a link to the fourth part tutorial): http://www.Adobe.com/devnet/Dreamweaver/articles/first_website_pt4.html

  I had no problem until then and have done everything that the tutorial has loaded.  It is extremely detailed and everything that preceded eighteen number should be correct.

  Is that what the Cill problem someone please suggest me?

  Thank you.

  If it has been entered correctly, it will work as described. So, obviously there's a mistake somewhere. But as John pointed out, we must see what you've done to identify the problem.

  It would also help if you describe what happens. Say that something is not working is only half of the story. If something unexpected happens, that often gives a clue as to where the error is located.

  Common errors in the CSS are mix upward of colons and semicolons (or them leaving aside). You should also check that your opening and closing braces match. In addition, the color used in one of the rules is #00b4e1 . The first two characters after the sign of hash are zeros, and the last character is the number one. It's small errors that can make a big difference.
