Not recognizing form action 'FMPro'

[catherineh]

Hi

I am using the search and results CDML templates from FileMaker web tools with Adobe GoLive. At first, they worked perfectly. The next day, it couldn't find the 'results.html' format file. Now, it is not recognizing the form action 'fmpro' at all. Are my format files in the wrong folder or something?

Thanks in advance,

Catherine

Your CDML files must be in folder Web in folder with FM application.

They are... does it have something to do with GoLive?

hello

dunno 'bout golive, but dreamweaver has had the habit of munging up cdml code.

have you tried opening your html files in a text editor (like bbedit) to verify that the code is intact?

hih

= DW has both capabilites....it does not "mungule" the code unless u use WYSIWYG little tooooo much and forget where your tags are....if they are in the table and you delete the table my best guess is that CMDL tags will be gone to

GoLive is 'nice' but DW is muc more powerful 'developer tool'

All the best!

If that is true then DW GUI can destroy any of that advantage. I was trying hard to switch to DW from GL, but what took me 5 minutes in GL was hour in DW.

Re-check the CDMl code. I never had such problem in GL 4-6.

It is discussions about inherent design problems of editing apps (FM's Web Tools, GoLive, DreamWeaver) such as the above which make me realize that my decision to learn HTML and eschew such apps was the right decision. Create a template and copy/paste/edit as needed. If there are then problems I know with whom I should converse to get resolution.

-well, I guess it depends on each person...as I said using DW GUI.or WYS... can hurt u but if u work in slip view code/design u can see all the code begin generated and correct it as needed. There comes a point when one must use code only or, Of course, some code will scrabeled due to the fact ur inserting your own and then trying to use the native DW behaviors....after all it is just a programm not a programmer in a box

BTW what was it that your tried to do in DW that took u an hour!?

RE: but if u work in slip view code/design u can see all the code begin generated

Like in GL.

What took me an hour? For example Table. If I want to select All text in cell, Ctrl-A is not working in DW. The whole table business in DW is crime.

The whole DW interface was designed with simple goal -- to confuse me. MM succeeded 100%.

The only thing which is excellent in DW is the source code editing.

I see

"Ctrl-A is not working in DW" - selects the cell - double click the word to select it like in MSWord?!

Tables are easy...click on table icon enter cells and row and then click-drag to set the size....it takes more to type this than to do it

but...none of this really matters, everyone uses what "fits" them. Personally, I will trade GoLive for DW even it it was in Chinese

All the best!

I was trying to select ALL text in cell, no way by Ctrl-A standard.

I was trying to modify existing tables Inserting/deleting rows etc.

I cannot trade in the DW I had, it was complimentary copy from MM, somehow that nice company likes me, and it wouldn’t be nice from me to do that.

"I was trying to select ALL text in cell, no way by Ctrl-A standard."

-click and dragg over the text

I was trying to modify existing tables Inserting/deleting rows etc

-select the table tag--> right-click Insert/Detete_Rows/Columns

"...it was complimentary copy from MM"

look at you MR.Desinger ...well it is good to know that there are "people with influence" in this forum.

I remember the 1st time I strated DW ( UD v2 I think)...I looked at it...it had nice buttons...and I closed it.

I started to apprechiate it when I did some ASP...it was a nice "code primer".....

but OK ...I will stop trying to "push you" into DW

RE: well it is good to know that there are "people with influence"

Hihi, next time I will talk to FMI President, I will mention you as talented FM developer

Yes, I am that nice

[Leb i Sol]

oooo LOL

"Remember -- Power Users Don't Use Mouse "

soooo....Administrators just look at the monitor and get things done? LOL this would make my job easy

=Tab arround until u get to the cell...press and hold Shift and then use left-right Arrow keys to select text ~ Up and Down to select cell...NO Mouse

"Hihi, next time I will talk to FMI President, I will mention you as talented FM developer "

--who? me????LOL with 'A LOT' of experince under my belt....

Yes on Windows; I hardly touch the animal

[Leb i Sol]

animal vs. pet

p.s. Ones, I found, in my hamster's house, plans that prove his intentions of rippinng of the Apple of their icons....so I guess this clears Bill G. and the whole WinDoooz Deal

don't tell anyone, my hamster is still in hiding
