I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 on a Mac running OS 10.6.2 and I am experiencing issues with code hinting.
Two of my issues are:
Closing tags are not being generated after creating the open tag in the preferences I have selected. This should happen after typing the open tag's >.
Attributes/functions associated with tags are not displayed after opening one, for example: If I type <div and then start to type an attribute of a div tag, such as class, nothing is suggested.
I've already gone through the settings several times to no avail.
Can anyone offer any suggestions?
Thank you for your time.
I guess this is a bit old, but for reference, I wrote a post about this a while ago, I came across exactly the same issue: http://blog.affirmix.com/2009/05/06/code-hinting-in-the-dreamweaver-extensibility-api/

I was writing some HTML in Sublime Text 2 and I noticed that the auto complete feature was no longer working. Just so we're clear, I'm not referring to the dropdown menu that suggests elements but rather the tag completion. Normally what happens is if I were to type an opening tag all I'd have to do is type the beginning of the closing tag and it would auto complete the tag which obviously saved a lot of time but now it's not working for some reason. I do have package control installed along with quite a few extensions but I heard that this feature is actually built in. I deleted ST2 off my computer and re-downloaded it, and it still isn't working so I'm not sure what else to try.
Is this feature really a default feature in Sublime Text 2? If so, why wasn't it working when I re-installed Sublime Text 2?
I'm on a Mac and I'm running Yosemite.
Thank you for reading.
Installed Sublime Text 3 and it works again.
I've had this issue several times and usually I can just shut down the program and restart it. But this time I have a bunch of windows open and I don't want to restart Dreamweaver.
My problem is that Dreamweaver brought up a code hint, but the code hint box now won't go away. It just sits there floating in the middle of the page. It doesn't matter if I click to Preview or any other tab in Dreamweaver, it still just sits on top of everything.
I'm working on a Mac, Dreamweaver CC (cloud, fully updated). Anyone else have this problem???
This has been a HUGE PAIN for me as well! You can make the code hint disappear though by finishing out an element that is in the code hint box. For instance if the code hint box appears and you can see class in the drop down... create a <div class="xyz"> real quick and the code hit box will dissipate after you close the quotes on the class because you used an element in that box. As to why this continually happens on the Mac version I have no idea, but I hope they fix it soon!
It's a known bug since years as you can read here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/7745689
Someone suggests as a workaround to set the Coding Hint delay to 0 (as said here: https://forums.adobe.com/message/7745689#7745689) but for me, in Dreamweaver CC 2015 Windows fully updated via cloud app, this bug still occurs while I code JS files.
Awaiting for a final fix, I hope this suggestion can be useful for you on Mac. :)
Recently I decided to write a very simple Google Chrome extension. All it's going to do is to hide some DOM-elements from the web-page using JavaScript when user presses the extension's button.
Since I knew nothing about Chrome extensions, I started reading tutorials, and I came across this Google's sample: A browser action with no icon that makes the page red
This sample is really close to what I want to make. The problem is that I can't make it work. Whenever I load the extension in Chrome, I can see the button of this extension, but when I press it - nothing happens. Sample doesn't work, probably I should know something I don't know yet.
And before you started asking me:
Yes, I tried restarting the browser;
I use the newest version of Chrome.
Thanks for help.
If you open up the sample zip... find backgrond.js... edit.
Find the line that says:
null, {code:"document.body.style.background='red !important'"});
and remove the "!important". so it should read:
null, {code:"document.body.style.background='red'"});
That is it. just save and reload the extension, should work (unless the page has an !important flag set to the background).
I am afraid I don't know why the "!important" tag doesn't work but I have never been able to get it to work in an extension. Hopefully someone else here will be able to give an explanation and maybe a work around.
I think I can help bring some clarification to the "!important" override attribute causing the extension to break. Though I am not 100% I believe that this attribute is not allowed for issues involving security complications. I have a link to another SO thread that may help clarify this as well.
My CSS is not getting injected through my content script
I'm assuming from reading this article that you must either use the !important override when content scripts specified in the manifest file. Otherwise if the css is being injected !important is not required. Again not 100% on this.
Once upon a time, i came across a weird entry in google search result.
The entry would sit there strangely, with artefacts of text standing tall & vertical.
At once I fired up my trusty firebug to analyse the problem. It appeared immediate that the origin was purely in the text content, nothing could explain why it stood so tall.
I thought it puzzling that the text would suddenly change direction. I found it even more interesting that the browser would not reflow its content to adjust for it. The text just sat there, ignoring the laws of internet. Was the world falling appart? It is 2012 after all.
If seeing it in a pictogram is what you wish then to gaze at the following screenshot:
(This be Chrome (16.0.912.75 mac). This thus happens on Firefox 9 too)
If seeing it in action is what you wish then to click on the following search result link: Search link
What form of sorcery is causing that?
Stackoverflow worthy questions:
Why is the text direction changing without any html markup to trigger it?
Why is the text not forcing the browser to reflow the content and accomodate for it?
I don't think it's related to google, its jankenpopp.com-related, looks like one of those languages where you need to read from top to botton instead of left to right.
I was a bit sketchy to click that link...
I use Dreamweaver 8 at work, and recently I've been having an issue with open files. When I move focus away from Dreamweaver to another piece of software (usually firefox for testing the results of uploaded files), and then move back to Dreamweaver I get a prompt saying: "This file has been modified outside of Dreamweaver. Do you want to reload it".
Edit: this is for every single file I have open in Dreamweaver so is quite unbearable!
Clicking yes or no both show exactly the same page! Nothing's changed, and nothing should have!
Any ideas why this might be happening? It's causing some issues because I work with another developer at work and I don't want my work overwriting. I assure you that he's not working on any of the same files or anything, and we've worked together for months and this has never happened before.
I'm very well aware that I can turn this prompt off, but in cases where files have actually changed, I'd want to be prompted.
I know Dreamweaver 8 is a joke.. but it's what we've got, and it's been fine up until now.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)
That behavior exists in CS5 too, so I'm pretty sure it is a bug. Are you working off a shared network drive?
