Cannot save a page as in dreamweaver

Community

hi, i have a simple site, nothing complex, php files in dreamweaver.cs5

the site seems to have always been ok, no problems.

yesterday I created a sub directory called /xyz

so my page would show up like this

www.domain.com/xyz/newpage.php

while I can save as a php page ok, when i save as to the new directory the page is a mess, no formatting and other stuff

its something to do with that sub directory and saving there. But what is it?

Youā€™re going to need to give us a liiiitle bit more information to help solve your problem.

How are you applying your ā€˜formattingā€™? CSS file? If so, have you changed the references to said CSS file in your code to correctly point to the fileā€™s new location?

In addition to what @m_hutley stated, load that new page in a browser and ā€œView Sourceā€ the page. Look at all src and href attributes to make sure that they are pointing to where they should be pointing. I suspect that they wonā€™t.

V/r,

ok, here is the page
https://www.wiredoffice.com.au/perth2.php

could it be something to do with the wordpress parts??

First thing I noticed is that you have some CSS that is not between <style> and </style> tags.

Either you or Wordpress is loading fontawesome from two sources, cloudflare and boostrap CDNs.

You have the word ā€˜hereā€™ arbitrarily placed (checking position, maybe?).

Scrolling to the bottom of the page, I see many things out of place, and a few things doubled up (Micro$oft logo, etc.)

You are loading a LOT of scripts and css files, which makes me wonder if you really NEED all of them?

V/r,

You also have the <head> tag after the first <meta> tag.

but

Where are the Wordpress parts? I donā€™t see any WP.

  • Choose Fileā†’ Save .
  • Click the Site Root button in the Save As dialog box that appears to quickly navigate to the root folder for your Dreamweaver Site.
  • Enter a filename in the Save As field. Leave the filename extension at the default .html, and click the Save button.

i appreciate your effort but that didnt work, and secondly I am using dw cs5 not the latest which this post refers to.

Is there a reason why you need to use such an old version? Outdated software is likely to cause as many problems as it solves.

As far as Iā€™m aware, CS5 doesnā€™t support HTML5, so itā€™s no wonder youā€™ve run into problems trying to add an HTML5 bootstrap footer, as discussed in your other thread.

You still donā€™t appear to have validated your code and corrected the errors.

Are you writing your code using the editor and testing in a browser (if yes, which browser are you using) or page-view (whatever itā€™s called), the Dreamweaver built-in thing that renders your code?
