When I try to insert image effects or image show pro in an editable region they bougth give the error that i 'm trying to insert them in an locked (or non editable) region.

Most of the work i'm doing is in asp.net.

I found a way to work around it by inserting the effects in a blank html and then copy paste them to (including the script files in the header) to the page where I want to place the effects.

It'a litle time consuming and my local (build) directories get cluttered with files like effect1_for_default.html.

The effects however are real nice, I hope theres a fix for that bug.

I'm using Dreamweaver CS4


Kind regards,

Hello Meindert,

At the moment we don't have any fix for working with templates. It's a little more tricky to make it to work with templates because, as you saw, the extension inserts code in more than just one place in the page. It would need to check to see if there are editable regions in all the places that it needs to insert code and this is difficult to check. Also, bad things might happen if there isn't an editable region in one of the three insert points. This error has been fixed in our lates extension, but it will be difficult for the ImageEffects and ImageShow. We will take an update into consideration and see if we can do a more decent workaround at least.

Regards,
Andrei Rinciog

I have the same issue i guess a fix hasn't been done within the past 8 months. But i have this to say. I have a FLV player plugin i bought from flash developement 24. I had the same issue sort of. It would put in the video player but if it couldnt insert it into the head it would tell you to insert this code into the head of the template. So it put the everything on the page and if you try to use it, it wouldnt work without the file being in the head because it never knew to load it up. Later i bought a FLV player from webstunning (i had issues with dreamweaver and the free ones and never got them to work properly mostly since i dont know javascript) The 1st player it had to have this stuff in the head for it to work. The one from webstunning did not require stuff in the head. On the bottom is the code that player inserted into my body area. One player didnt work properly because it couldnt auto insert into the head and said it needed to be done manually, The web stunning one integrated it with the body tag.

The work around that i did is the page that i was using it i just undid the connection to the template and had everything editable. problem is you have to make sure everything is done on there before you do anything because it wont auto update if you make a change to the template.

In regards to the three insert points, on the page that it works and its on its own it only shows inserting code in the body and head. If you can do what webstunning did with there FLV player which is flash based also then that could solve the issue.

I'm not a programmer and i have no idea the work that it takes to make this, i am just suggesting One flash plugin required me to put something in the head area and the other didnt. So i assume it isnt impossible. I would really like to see a fix to this so it works with a template.

Thank you,

Grant
