Action problem with GoLive 9 Components
Rebuilding and flattening the CSScriptLib.js file from the Site > Settings ignored the Actions I used in a Component. This problem might also extend to Templates and Stationary.
If you use Actions in Components, check the CSScriptLib.js file after flattening to see if the script has been included.
PeekaBoo_DW 6.1.1 - released August 9, 2010
Bug fix
Fixed a positioning problem when "Center flyout in browser window" was selected.
CyberGallery 7.3 - released August 26, 2010
This version is now available for GoLive as well as Dreamweaver.
Several fixes have been made in this version.
This version now links to a new included style sheet that sets up the style properties of the AP Divs generated by CyberGallerySetup. This was previously done by writing HTML <style> during onLoad. This new method should be more stable.
AutoScroll_DW 4.2.1 - released April 20, 2010
v4.2.1
Fixes
Version 4.2 calculated the wrong values for the clipping box width and height when using the "Screen full" scrolling option. This has been fixed in version 4.2.1.

v4.1.1
Fixes related to FilmStrip_DW
Fixed a problem with edge scrolling not setting the wrap box left properly after using FrameSwapnRoll.
Fixed a problem with Cursor Scrolling not stopping when the cursor left the film strip boundry.
FileTabs_DW 2.0 - released March 6, 2010
New Behavior
Use this Behavior to design menus with two or three state rollover File Tabs.
Click a tab and it stays highlighted. Click another tab and it stays highlights and the previous tab turns off... just like radio buttons.
Works in a frameset or iFrame layout. Using iFrames means you only have to edit one menu, and all pages using the menu update automatically. See the Frameset and iFrame demo.
FilmStrip_DW set 1.0 - released February 25, 2010
New Behavior
Use this Behavior to design scrolling, FilmStrip navigation menus.
This Behavior set contains AutoScroll, FrameSwapnRoll and SwapFrameSet. These Behaviors were newly designed to work together as a FilmStrip menu system.
How does it work?
When a thumbnail in a scrolling strip of thumbnails is clicked, a new product page is loaded into the browser's window or frame, and the thumbnail for this page is centered and highlighted.
iFrames on each product page are linked to the same FilmStrip menu. When you add or remove pages, you only have to edit one menu instead of one on every product page. A tremendous time saver.
FilmStrip menus also work in a frameset layout where the menu is in one frame and the product page in another.
CyberGallery_DW 7.0.1 - released February 24, 2010
New features and fixes
CyberGallery is even better.
This version includes the scrolling "Zip copyright notice" option for images. You no longer need to buy CopyRightNotice to have this feature.
A new Zoom Image option has been added to the opening effects palette. It starts from zero to full opacity during the zoom. Cool effect.
A new "keyline" Swipe window option has been added. This displays a
1 pt keyline around a transparent swipe window. Nice professional effect. See the Keyline demo.
You can display a mix of Images, QuickTime and Windows movies, and Flash files as either single images or in a slide show.
You can also override the swipe window background image and the caption text properties for selected images.
You can now override the individual parts of Drop Shadow and Caption defaults for selected images.

Update
TimeImage is used to schedule the display of images in time slots during the day, and on selected days of the week.

New features
This great time saving Action can now perform simple arithmetic using the values in numeric Form fields. The final result can be formatted for display purposes.

Expanded the filled in also option to include text fields, text areas, select-single, select-multiple, check boxes and radio groups.
Changed the error painting for the "Filled in also" option. Now only paints the filled in also field if it's not correct... not the first field.
Fixed a problem with error painting text inside <label></label> tags not working in IE Windows. IE doesn't follow normal convention of placing the "value" portion of property pairs, inside "innerHTML" text, between double quotes. VF now checks for both.

For example you can schedule new images on May 1, 2008, then on May 2, 2008 and so on. Or you can simply let the images run until another change is scheduled. Great for automating the changing of holiday images or Banner Ads etc.
