CSS at it best

Posted on May 26 in Wiki

In all my time developing and designing websites I found the best practice is to use Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) in your designs. CSS allows you to change the look and feel or functionality of certain elements in your web design all in one file.

PHP FastCGI on IIS 7.0

Posted on Apr 04 in Wiki

So to give you a little background on a server issue, we were having problems with PHP running on IIS 7.0. PHP would run fine on some apps but did not run at all on others. We searched back through the code and all was correct. What could cause this?

Seems that PHP on IIS 7.0 with PHPFastCGI does not like the expose_PHP = On
line in the php.ini file. We changed the setting according to Microsoft Standards and viola PHP runs fine.

It is unknown to me why this is. Still doing research on this. Thanks

Applying Dreamweaver Behaviors

Posted on Mar 26 in Wiki

You can attach behaviors to the entire document (that is, to the tag) or to links, images, form elements, and several other HTML elements.

The target browser you select determines which events are supported for a given element.

You can specify more than one action for each event. Actions occur in the order in which they?re listed in the Actions column of the Behaviors panel, but you can change that order.

1. Select an element on the page, such as an image or a link.

To attach a behavior to the entire page, click the tag in the tag selector at the lower-left corner of the Document window.
2. Choose Window > Behaviors.
3. Click the Plus (+) button and select an action from the Actions menu.

Actions that are dimmed in the menu can?t be chosen. They may be dimmed because a required object doesn?t exist in the current document. For example, the Control Shockwave or Flash action is dimmed if the document contains no Shockwave or Flash SWF files.

When you select an action, a dialog box appears, displaying parameters and instructions for the action.
4. Enter parameters for the action, and click OK.
All actions provided in Dreamweaver work in modern browsers. Some actions do not work in older browsers, but they will not cause errors.
Note: Targeted elements require a unique ID. For example, if you want to apply the Swap Image behavior to an image, the image requires an ID. If you don?t have an ID specified for the element, Dreamweaver automatically specifies one for you.
5. The default event to trigger the action appears in the Events column. If this is not the trigger event you want, select another event from the Events pop?up menu. (To open the Events menu, select an event or action in the Behaviors panel, and click the downward-pointing black arrow that appears between the event name and the action name.)
