Using DreamWeaver deal with HTML in DCRs

Huan

Is it possible to tie in DreamWeaver to TeamSite? When edit a text area in a form entry, instead of launching VisualFormat Editor, we could launch DreamWeaver instead. Has anyone tried this approach?

Yikes, that would be difficult.

Here's a possiblity, just to get the discussion rolling.

Associate a new made up file extension (htmldw for example) that is associated with Dreamweaver. Then use a callout button to call some some code in perl that will create a temporary file called dcrNameABC.htmldw from the contents of your DCR field. Have the code attempt to open the file via the browser window of the callout. The file should be on a writable location in a website so that when you use Dreamweaver to edit the file you can save it to a site definition you already created in DW.

After you have saved it up with DW you can then hit a button inside that same callout that will read the contents of the dcrNameABC.htmldw into the field on the DCR.

Some ramblings to get something going.

It got me interested in giving it a try myself.

Here is some code that worked. I created the file association first on my pc and then it opened up in DW.


#!/usr/bin/perl

use CGI ':standard'; 
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);  

my $files_location;  
my $ID;  
my @fileholder; 

$files_location = "/inetpub/wwwroot"; 

$ID = "readme.htmldw"; 

if ($ID eq '') {  
print "Content-type: application/x-download\n";  
print "You must specify a file to download.";  
} else { 

open(DLFILE, "<$files_location/$ID") || Error('open', 'file');  
@fileholder = ;  
close (DLFILE) || Error ('close', 'file');  

open (LOG, ">>/inetpub/wwwroot/test.log") || Error('open', 'file'); 
print LOG "$ID\n"; 
close (LOG); 

print "Content-Type:application/x-download\n";  
print "Content-Disposition:attachment;filename=$ID\n\n"; 
print @fileholder 
}

I found this page for the code.

Creating the file, sing Dreamweaver to upload the file and getting it's contents with the callout is up to you, but shouldn't be to difficult.

Is this the best approach, probably not, but it should work.

- Open Dreamweaver
- open document to edit in Teamsite
- right click visual format box, select view source
- select all
- copy
- paste into dreamweaver code view

make your edits

- select all relevent code in Dreamweaver (don't grab html, head, body tag for example)
- copy
- paste into visual format box - making sure you overwrite the existing
- right click
- select WYSIWYG
- save, generate

* Alternatively, use Firefox - no VF tool so you just copy and paste the code from the text box into Dreamweaver and back

why ? because the visual format windows are so tiny Smiley Wink
