Setting up a Dreamweaver Site with directories outside the Web root

I have my web server, the following web site structure:

\WebSite\ wwwbeta.evansville.edu D:\
\Extensions\CustomTags\ wwwbeta.evansville.edu D:\
\Extensions\Components\ wwwbeta.evansville.edu D:\
\Extensions\Includes\ wwwbeta.evansville.edu D:\

The web site in the web server root, is mapped to "D:\ wwwbeta.evansville.edu \WebSite\.
The other three directories of "Extensions" are accessible only by ColdFusion and should stay outside the web root. However, I want to be able to edit these directories in DW, as well.

In Dreamweaver, I have the local root folder defined on C:\WebSites\ wwwbeta.evansville.edu.
The HTTP address is on http://wwwbeta.evansville.edu/

However, these settings just don't jive during the insertion of links. (I don't want to use relative links. We only use absolute links).

When I insert a link, it will as long as "/ WebSite/Link.cfm. I understand very well why this is happening. However, I am looking for suggestions on how to configure DW, if possible, for me to work with all of these directories, in a unique site of DW definition, generating yet correct absolute links.

I don't think that this is possible. Please show me the light.

Thank you!

It is a relative path, a relative path root site.

because you chose a folder which is a folder of level higher than we should
for the record of Site Local to this site, dw made the wrong way.

There was not anyway you want.
Set the Site Local folder to
\WebSite\ wwwbeta.evansville.edu D:\

and dw will properly the root of the relative site or document relative paths for
the main site folder

You will not be able to touch anything in these other folders with dw, because
they are out of the structure of the site.

You can define a new site for each of the other files, and then you could
have dw make correct paths when working on includes, for example.

As far as I KNOW, you can't do it with a single site def.

  • Access files outside the web root?

    Hello, everyone.

    Hypothetical scenario.

    I wanted to have a file that would set globally accessible variables to contain passwords, and I want to put this file outside the web root, so that users can not access.

    Logical pathnames of course won't work.  And the cfinclude tag doesn't use physical paths.

    I've never done this before.  What are my options?

    Thank you

    ^_^

    Almost all your CFML files should not be in a directory web-driven!  That those people really are looking for should be accessible web.

    Files must not be accessible to be web - ed or be instantiated as objects, or used as a custom tag.

    FOR EXAMPLE:

    C:\webapps\myapp<= this="" dir="" is="" the="" root="" as="" far="" as="" coldfusion="" is="">

    C:\webapps\myapp\wwwroot<= that="" dir="" is="" the="" webroot="" as="" far="" as="" the="" web="" server="">

    C:\webapps\myapp\includes<= files="" you="">

    C:\webapps\myapp\api<=>

    The only things that should be dir wwwroot files people really browse (index.cfm, etc.) and components such as images, JS and CSS files that must be served to the browser.

    Most of your CFM files must be in a subdirectory of C:\webapps\myapp.

    So index.cfm must be traveled, and it must use the data in secretSecureStuff.cfm which is in understand this respectively.  Then index.cfm is just:

    include "/ myapp/includes/secretSecureStuff.cfm";

    If the file to include is not in the structure of subdirectory myapp for some reason, you can create a mapping in CFAdmin or Application.cfc to point to it, for example:

    /External. => C:\stuff\somewhere\else

    And you référenceriez C:\stuff\somewhere\else\outside.cfm via:

    include "/ external / outside.cfm";

  • How to access a CFC outside the web root

    I need to access several of the CFCS that are sitting outside the web root, however, I can't seem to find the right way to call the component.  For example... My Flex project is located in a folder under the web root.  My CFC sit in a folder at the same level as the web root.

    To illustrate:

    The web root is c:\coldfusion8\wwwroot

    CFCS are in a folder c:\coldfusion8\com

    A CFC that I need to access is named fxCFC and is located at c:\coldfusion8\com\fxCFC.cfc

    The Flex project is named fxProject and is located at c:\coldfusion\wwwroot\fxProject

    The application is called main.mxml and resides in c:\coldfusion\wwwroot\fxProject\src\main.mxml

    I can't call the CFC using "com.fxCFC" as my compiled application cannot see the component.  I guess that since the CFC to sit above the root.  Is there a way I can access?

    Thank you!

    Man I feel so stupid, I forgot the option in the remoting-config. XML which allows you to turn on the mappings.

    It is the solution, your wwwroot CF proceed to web-inf/flex/services-config.xml, search for and modify

    false
    

    for this

    true
    

    Restart the servers and maps to start working.

    I'm so stupid sometimes.

  • Director on the Web

    Hi all

    Please excuse my lack of intelligence on the issue, because I've never worked with before Director.  I try to know what I have to do to play a game of Director online, or if it's even possible.  The story continues,

    One of my friends has created a full-scale educational game using Director a year ago.  The inention had the final product placed via file exe on a CD and then sell the CD people at conventions.  The program received excellent responses to the conventions, but lets face it, selling CDs limits your buyers.  In order to increase sales, he wants to make the game playable online.  Where people can just go to a website and play like any normal flash game today.

    Is it possible to do without redoing his game all in Flash?  The game is a big enough size, and we're talking about probable thousands for everything have remade in flash.  The game features a database to track the progress of the children if it makes a difference.

    Looking forward to hearing from everyone!

    Really, most of the xtras are not shockwave safe.  Everything which relates to access to the contents of the local machine (like BuddyAPI, FIleIO, etc.) cannot be shockwave safe for security reasons.  And many xtra develops all simply did not bother to make their xtras for shockwave.  The best way to find out if it works is simply try it and hope.  There will be on 'Manager undefined' error messages when you try to use an xtra script which is not supported.

    Of course, you will need to make adjustments to cope with the changes of the database... It will be not readable on a CD or the local computer.  You can put it on the internet and allow everyone to access it.  You can easily use php with MySQL to do everything you need.  Director features getNetText() controls and postNetTest() that allow you to communicate with PHP scripts on the web.

  • Dynamic LOV with data to the Web Service Control

    Hi all

    I am currently working on JDeveloper 11.1.1.9.

    I want to implement a form of creation, for two of my form fields do correspond to LOV.

    The first is a LOV returned by a method of the web service (see back picture1) call, it works perfectly (see picture0).


    picture0:

    Capture1.PNG

    The other is represented by the nested list of the object returned by this method ( see picture1to taskPurposeList).


    Picture1:

    Capture.PNG



    By choosing a value in first af:selectOneChoice , I want to access the nested list in the second af:selectOneChoice.

    I have tried to map the second field directly to this list, but it is not updated (see image2).



    Capture2.PNG


    You have an idea on how to apply it?


    Thank you very much


    Leslie

    Hi all, sorry for taking the trouble,.

    I finally found the solution after several days of reflection and try.

    It is, when you select a value in the select list is not to update the current row of the iterator.

    Only, I've defined the current line of my iterator (mapped to the first list) parent according to the selected code in the list and update the second list like this:

    DCIteratorBinding taskTypeLOVIterator = ADFManagedBeanUtil.findIterator ("TaskTypeLOVIterator");

    Rank [] allRows = taskTypeLOVIterator.getAllRowsInRange ();

    for (line: allRows) {}

    {if ((Row.GetAttribute("ID").) {(Equals (valueChangeEvent.getNewValue ()))}

    taskTypeLOVIterator.getRowSetIterator () .setCurrentRow (row);

    }

    }

    AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance () .addPartialTarget (soc2);

    Setting the current row of the iterator parent automatically updated the second list.

    Thank you

  • How to set up two different sites with a section that has the same content?

    I have two sister sites, each a separate but related Department in a hospital. Each of these Web sites, I have a main tab called library, which has about 30 pages it contains for related health issues. The library is the exact same content on each site, but the main navigation and the header of the site is obviously different. I have been maintaining this same content on both sites (if something is changed, then I must do it twice). It is not effective, and I would like to find a way to combine them somehow. I don't have a ton of experience, but I catch pretty quickly and I basically need ideas for the best way to handle this. I considered creating a third-party site, and the Library tab on each of the other sites would take you to this new site. I also wondered if there is a way to integration of duplicate content to two different pages (perhaps with an iframe). In this way I would update the original file, and it would be updated on both sites.

    The sites also have different sizes. It is 960 pixels wide and the other is 690 because it has a sidebar that makes it smaller. How would you recommend all that I manage that? I use Dreamweaver CS6 and my pages are all HTML

    Because the sites are on separate areas, I'm not sure you can use set includes in this situation.

    Iframes would be the way to go. You just save the content iframe on one of your sites and link page to two pages.

  • need help: enter the flash file in Dreamweaver site with dark background

    Hello
    I entered a SWF in a site dreamweaver with a dark blue background. When you view the site in a browser, there is a white square (the size of the flash file) which flashes for one second before the file begins to load. It is rather ugly and I was wondering if anyone knew how to avoid this white square of flashing to the top.
    I tried already to make the bottom of dark blue table and adding a dark blue square as a background image, but that didn't make a difference.

  • Can I use DreamWeaver Sites to connect to the HR server?

    I was wondering if anyone is using DreamWeaver for creating HTML topics, then posting them on a RoboHelp Server. I tried implementing a site in DW, using FTP and WebDAV options to try to connect to the remote server in HR, but failed.

    Hi, Ed

    Using Dreamweaver in itself, is not a problem when creating topics to include in a HR project. However, you don't say if you create with Dreamweaver in the context of the RoboHelp customer editing environment. No matter how you create your HTML topics, you need to import into your HR project or set up HR to use Dreamweaver it is a built-in default editor. Then when your HR project is ready, you can publish this content on the RoboHelp Server. You can't just copy or FTP content to RoboHelp Server. This is a database server application and the client application to RoboHelp is required to prepare the necessary files to make them compatible. That's why you publish HR client application.

  • I tried several times to set up an email account with Thunderbird, but the next time I start the computer and start Thunderbird, no account is displayed.

    I bought a new desktop PC with Win 8.1 and installed Firefox and Thunderbird.
    Then, I tried to set up the e-mail account manually (in IMAP) following the instructions here: https://support-en.upc-cablecom.ch/app/answers/detail/a_id/22 , but can't set the mail server outgoing smtp correctly (I could receive mail but not send them).

Then, I started the automatic mail with UPC Cablecom under the http://www.upc-cablecom.ch/content/dam/www-upc-cablecom-ch/Support/executables/upc-cablecom-email-assistant.exe link tool and he did successfully set up the account, however, because a POP3 server account.

In doing so, I got an e-mail account IMAP incoming more two outgoing SMTP server (comparing them, I also understand the configuration error that I had done the first time).
