Macromedia Dreamweaver :: Lorem Ipsum?


	Lorem Ipsum? Is it possible to insert the 'standard' Lorem Ipsum placeholder text using a Dreamweaver menu option? You'll need an extension. Just go to the Exchange and search for Lorem Ipsum. I use the one from Technocurve. -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- > Is it possible to insert the 'standard' Lorem Ipsum placeholder text using > a Dreamweaver menu option? Just an aside, I avoid Lorem Ipsum on web sites that I'm 'flushing out' for clients. I either put text that says "[NEED COPY FOR THIS PAGE]" Or I use greeked text consisting of just a lot of Xs: Xxxx xxx xxxxxx xxxxx. Xxx xxxxx xx xxxxxx xxxxxxx xx xxxx. Xxxxx xx xxxx xxx. etc... I've found those are much more obvious to the client that they need to get copy for those pages, as opposed to Lorem ipsum, which I've had clients completely ignore when they've told me it's ready to go live. -Darrel -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- David Powers has a good one on the Exchange to.

I actually had one client ask me what language I used for his site. That's when I quite using it.

They usually over look the Lorem Ipsum text. Not sure how they overlook it, but they do. I also noticed that when working with people that don't really understand how to use a computer turn into a complete idiot when I ask them to do anything that involves using the computer no matter how smart they are or how many PHD's they have. Sometimes I have to print the pages for them and tell them to make out the papers I gave them for updates. -----------------------------------------------Reply----------------------------------------------- On Wed, 6 Jun 2007 19:15:46 +0000 (UTC), "joeq" <webforumsu@macromedia.com> wrote: >This is where the copy goes.
