The best way to get help with a design problem is to upload the problem page to a public website. Then post a request for help in the Dreamweaver General Discussion forum. Include the URL of the problem page in your request. It's only by examining your code that anyone can give advice on how to fix it.

Uhm;; So I decided to use the Spry Menu Bar for my Web-Design project at school, but when I insert the Menu Bar, it only shows one block. I’ve used it before when I first created it and I set it to have 4 menu drop downs. Inside Dreamweaver it only shows 1 menu block, but when I preview it, it shows the full Drop Down Menu (which I want). I turn it into my teachers file, it shows only that 1 menu block not the full thing D: .. Sorry, I’m not great at explaining well. Is there anyway to fix this?

It’s impossible to troubleshoot a problem with a web page without actually seeing the page. I suggest that you post a request for help in the Dreamweaver forum and include the URL of the page so that someone can have a look at it.

Thanks for your reply. I went to Dreamweaver FAQ. I did a search on “deleting a corrupt cache file”. I couldn’t find anything. I sent them a question and it wouldn’t accept my question. Thank you.

Getting a JavaScript error message in Dreamweaver almost certainly means you have a corrupt cache file. Check out Deleting a corrupt cache file in the Dreamweaver FAQ.

I’m creating new pages on Dreamweaver CS5 and I did not change sprymenubar.js. I’m getting an error as follows:
“While executing on Focus in Sprymenubar.htm, the following, JavaScript error(s) occured: At line 280 of file “Macintosh HD; Applications: Adobe Dreamweaver CS5: Configuration: Inspector: sprymenubar.js” dom has no properties”
This is what is on line 273 to 281:

273 Spry.Widget.MenuBar.prototype.clearMenus = function(root)
274 {
275 var menus = root.getElementsByTagName(‘ul’);
276 for(var i=0; i 277 this.hideSubmenu(menus[i]);
278
279 this.removeClassName(this.element, this.activeClass);
280 };
281
