Hi There,

Is there a way of making the site folder links in NVU Portable dynamic, as it's proving a bit of a pain having to change the drive letter every time i plug into a different computer...

Cheers

As no-one has posted about NVU for a while i thought i'd post my thoughts. As a teacher i wanted to set up a site for my students. I have found the portability very useful and wish to thank John Haller for his hard work. I add bits to pages at work and home, finding the combination of portable browser (with all my bookmarks) and NVU a godsend. I use eMindMaps for some of the layout - NVU for editing and publishing. [I use the firefox ftp for posting some files and have had no problems. The pluggin seems much better than the other ftp client i tried . . . but then i don't have the computing knowledge to know its pitfalls if there are any]. I wouldn't have progressed as far as i have in a couple of weeks if it hadn't been for this. When completed i'll ask for feedback!

Problem #1:

I downloaded Nvu Portable 1.0 rev 3 and tried install it on my 2GB flash stick into the folder G:\Program Files\Nvu . It didn't work. I even tried it on multiple pc's. I get a error:

Problem #2 | I cant delete

Since it didn't install properly on multiple pc's, I went to go delete it. I get prompted with this:

Thats odd. Why are there boxes in the filename....
Then I get this....

I use NVU at school (servers). Since then my Microsoft Office profile is deleted

When creating a Form in NVU Portable it's easy to insert the Form elements. Then when modifying a Form element it's easy to just double-click the element and modify its properties.

However, this doesn't work when trying to modify a "Selection List" Form element. Nothing happens when double-clicking the element and if one goes to the INSERT menu and selects "Selection List" it comes up with all of the properties of the selected element on the page. But, when one clicks OK it disappears.

Getting this to work would be really nice.

The proper name of the program is "Nvu"--note the difference in capitalization. Any reason why you call your version "NVU Portable", John?

Where does NVU site manager store the sites? In other words, I have two websites in NVU's site manager, which file are they stored in. I'd like to protect it.

Its an unofficial Version wich will fix the bugs where in NVU.
What do you think about it (at an portable)

I can't open any page except HTML. Is there a way to make this work with scripted HTML pages like ASP, PHP, or JSP?

I've downloaded portable nvu like 4 times and the zip file is damaged! [everytime from a different mirror]...

help. or should I get Composer?
