rivet Posted August 7, 2002 Posted August 7, 2002 Has anyone seen a set of CDML tags for dreaweaver6?
Todd Dignan Posted August 17, 2002 Posted August 17, 2002 You can use home page 3 and copy and paste into the source.
Anatoli Posted August 17, 2002 Posted August 17, 2002 It is so easy to paste CDML tags into GL from existing application or from Reference CDML database. Doing that every day for 4 years...
Keith M. Davie Posted August 17, 2002 Posted August 17, 2002 I find it very easy to just type it all from scratch, html and cdml. Sure I copy and paste, but from a template I've already written. Then just type in what's needed. Everything done in SimpleText (if it was a pc it'd be NotePad). Copy and paste in a JavaScript and type the edits necessary. Type, for example, <form action="post" method="fmpro">. (Write it a few times and you don't even think about it, much less need to look it up.) Then you type <input type="hidden" name="" value="">, copy and paste that a few times and fill in the blanks. For cdml you're going to need at a minimum -db, -format, and an action tag like -findall. It is pretty repetitious stuff. Maybe change one "hidden" to "text" and another to "submit". html/cdml is not even case sensitive. How hard is that?
Anatoli Posted August 17, 2002 Posted August 17, 2002 I do agree with the CDML manual code insertion. To lay HTML layout for customer is easier and more productive in DW or GL. My best estimate is tenfold increase in productivity. Plus for sophisticated navigation buttons and changing picture with mouseovers, the DW or GL JavaScript code is tested for major browsers and it saves again lot of the time. That is what customer appreciates. And I have more time to focus on the database business.
mlindal Posted August 19, 2002 Posted August 19, 2002 The replies are excellent and of course using Go Live - I do manually insert CDML - from memory or using the reference database... However, Lasso has an add-in module for Go Live so that the Lasso tags are modular. I guess there is no known CDML add-in module for Go Live?
Anatoli Posted August 19, 2002 Posted August 19, 2002 I did try that in GL6 and it just replaces the syntax with blue boxes. I cannot see the code, which is very important to me. I immediately disabled the Lasso module. The beauty for me working that way is that I am not so interested in HTML code, just the CDML.
