Hi there, I red ALL SUPPORT and I still have a problem:

When I insert f.ex. a SIMPLE IMAGE EFFECTS, and configure it, and save it to my website on a ASP Jscript page, dreamweaver CS4 creates the INCLUDES folder with the JS files in it - but dosen\'t matter, it don\'t works.

Here\'s what I think: I believe that my hosting provider, doesn\'t allow execution of scripts or anything else under the \"Web\" root. I have these folders as ROOT:
- Web
- Dados (data)
and 2 others (I wont post here for sec reasons).

All of my pages, scripts, etc, etc, i have to put it INSIDE the \"Web\" folder, f.ex: \"Web/blog/\"
If even I refer to a page, or image from any folder that is located BEFORE the \"Web\", the page won\'t load that data.

When I tried to copy the full \"includes\" folder to a new location inside the \"Web\" folder, the image now appears but the effects don\'t.

MY Solution? I think that if we could change this creation path to another place, (FOR ME) it will work.

Help me please?

Also, when I copied the entire "includes" folder inside the "Web" folder, I changed the script locations on my page but still...

This is the location of the page:

Hello Fernando,

The extension creates the "includes" folder on the root of your website. But you can move that folder to other locations if you want too. You just need to make sure that you update the links. I good idea might be to create a new Dreamweaver site for the folder where you want your website to be.

On "default.asp" the javascripts seem to be loaded fine. However, I think that you haven't uploaded the swf file to the server. Inside the "includes/ImageEffects" folder there should be a file called "enhancer.swf". From what I see its not on the server as it gives me a file not found when I tried to reach it. Search for it on local and put it on the server.

It's possible that Dreamweaver doesn't upload files that are not directly used in the pages of the site. That's why it probably didn't upload that file.

Regards,

Hi Andrei,

problem solved as simple as you suggested. When I tried to reedit the link on the files, it was a mess... But, I just simply created anothe WEBSITE on Dreamweaver, inside the Web folder and it starting working just fine!

Thank You, great product!
