My first thought here is - have you cleared your browser cache, closed the browser and previewed again?  It looks like the default page is updating correctly.

If you have a FF or Chrome browser that is current version you can also view your DWT in that.  See if the link is working in that.

This is what I am doing.

I am opening up the master.dwt and changing the services link to the new page services_new.htm. The services_new.htm is a page that was created by clicking File > New > Page > Create from Dynamic Web Template. When I make the change to the master.dwt I am asked if I want to update the associated files and I click 'Yes'.

I then open up the default.htm that came with the DWT and I can see that the services link is updated and pointed to the new page services_new.htm. When I preview the default.htm in a browser and I try to click on the Services link nothing happens.

Below is the Master.dwt and the default.htm. So if the master.dwt is updated with the right name and it is saved and the default.htm sees the change why is it not working? What do I need to do?

I tried FP cleaner and 4 other cleanup utilities and unfortunately I am still getting that error when I try to insert/change properties. Do you know of a microsoft helpdesk # for this product? ]]> Fri, 10 Sep 2010 19:30:08 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4741&PID=27455#27455 Free expression web shopping cart help : linux reseller hosting http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4742&PID=27454#27454 Author: elinaelberta

There is a utility called FP Cleaner Utility (it is for EW also)  that gets rid of temp/old files.  Before you do anything drastic try it.  It takes a couple of seconds to download the .exe and a couple of seconds to run it.  It has helped many people on this forum.  

There are also some free utilities for Windows called Cleanup utilities for uninstalling the rest of applications that leave orphan files after the uninstall.

Thank you for responding to my post.

The problem I am running into is that behaviors won't work at all on EW4. I have tried with a new blank site to just see if I can use behaviors and still get the error. It is a software issue with the program but I can't seem to fix it. I tried reloading EW but unfortunately (like most programs) uninstalling it does not remove the entire program and what is left on my computer seems to be the code I am having problems with. I have installed EW on a different pc to test it and it works fine. I really don't want to have to format my hard drive just to get this to work again on my PC but there does not seem to be any microsoft support for this product and I may have to if I want to use behaviors (everything else seems to work).
 
Unfortunately my problem is not really within the scope of what this forum is for but I was hoping someone else had experienced this problem and had a fix but I am thinking that is not the case.  
 
Things I have tried:
 
reinstalled the program
reinstalled java
cleaned the registry after uninstall to remove unused entries
tested EW4 on different PC (works fine)

Thanks tjaks for catching that.  I apologize for being too much in a hurry.  No excuse.

He's right, there are so many commented parts I thought they were all the same.  Also the one in the top nav that is marked in red is just called services.htm  Did you actually save the DWT and it asked if you wanted to update the linked pages.  If not,  Go to the toolbar under Format > DWT > Update all pages.  If it doesn't update then, the problem is the DWT is not attached.

It is better to highlight the word, right click and select Insert Hyperlink and then browse to the file itself and click on it, letting EW do the wording.

When you see a comment like this marked in red  <!-- #BeginEditable "sidebar" --> that means it is part of page that can be edited.  This part is not editable in a page that has a DWT attached.
<!-- Begin Right Column -->

I have also found that if you make changes to a DWT and save it, then answer no to the question to update all attached pages then you want the DWT to update after the fact, you have to go to File > Save  in order for it to update.  It will not update the pages by right clicking on the tab and saving.

It sound like what you selected did not have button properties attached to it.  I don't use the interactive buttons, I make my own.  But it all relies on javascript and the selection of an object (the button)  Have you tried deleting the button and all the code and starting over?  Sometimes one little piece of misplaced code can feel like a 20 car pile up.  Keep it simple and start over.  Less headaches most of the time.]]> Fri, 10 Sep 2010 09:22:46 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4741&PID=27450#27450 Introductions : New User Blues http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4727&PID=27449#27449 Author: tjaks

Unless you changed something in your previous post I'm not seeing things exactly the way Tena did. I'm seeing the left column and the right column as editable regions "content" and "sidebar" respectively.
 
I did notice in part of your post you typed the file name as New_Services.htm but in the footer your link calls for services_New.htm.
I'm showing the caps just the way you did. It is suggested not to use capitals for file or folder names.]]> Fri, 10 Sep 2010 00:17:03 +0000 http://www.expression-web-designer-help.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=4727&PID=27449#27449
