[Express] iFrame displays wrong page

Freeway
1

Hi

I have earlier created a master page with an iFrame, and another master with a text inset for it. This has worked earlier.
Today I made a new page derived from these masters, and linked from the iFrame to the inset as described (selected the iFrame and linked to the inset by choosing it from the list of pages in the URL popup menu in the Actions window). But what is displayed in the frame is not the text inset, but the Home page!

Thank you. I will reconstruct the problem and prepare a version of my site without the 1.8 GB in the download folder…

In trying to do this, when I try to publish (preview) the page with the iFrame, this time I get the message “One or more html files which do not belong to this site will be overwritten. Do you want to continue?”

What does this mean?

For this purpose, I worked on a dupe of the site created by cmd-d in the Finder.

Kind regards - Hening

Did you then create a new site folder for your duplicate to publish into?

If not then 2 FW files are writing to one site folder - hence the error.

No. (In which way) can I make a dupe with a dupe of the site folder so that Freeway recognizes it and refers to THIS NEW site folder? Will the Save As…command do that?

No - use the finder to create a new folder and name it something distinct ie duplicate_site.

Then in the duplicate document go into File>Document Setup and under the Document Tab there is a Select button which you can use to choose your duplicate_site folder.

So done.

Today on the dupe, I can not reproduce the failure, it works as intended. Maybe it was an accidental failure, even though it persisted through a re-start of the Mac.

So I went back to the original to try that again, too. Now when I publish I get the message “One or more html files which do not belong to this site will be overwritten. …”

I thought maybe I had to explicitly re-choose the original site folder in File / Document Setup and did that, but no difference.

Why is this now?

Kind regards - Hening.

First thing to understand is that this is a harmless warning.

Yes, you will overwrite a file created by (or modified by) another document. But if you upload, you will only upload the changed files relative to your current server folder. The only possible down-side is that you will definitely end up with some renamed graphics (and your number of modified HTML files may increase as a result).

Freeway always creates an internally-consistent published site.

If you subsequently move to the document that thinks it owns the site folder, you will get the same error again when you next publish – and it is still harmless.

Freeway generates the complete site (or as much of it as is different from the last publish) each time you press publish or upload. If in the process of generating the site it encounters a file it does not know about (and, as in this case, this can simply mean a file that already exists) then it will do one of two things: if the file in question is an HTML file, it will show the alert you have seen, and if the file is a resource of one kind or another, it will simply rename the file it is about to publish, tacking a letter or number on to the filename to step around the conflict. If you get the alert, and you okay it, then Freeway will generate the file it was going to generate anyway, replacing the file that already exists in the target site folder.

You’re not hurting anything if you see this alert. It is better to work with each document having its own local site folder for publishing, at which point you definitely will not see the alert.

Thank you Walter,

that soothes me. If I ignore this warning, the iFrame works, and there is no reason for this upload at this time…

Good light! - Hening.

In response to Walt and for anyone that reads this,

I got the message today (scared) and hit OK and all was fine.

Just wanted those that see this not to panic.

Thanks Walt.
