Contribute 4 crash with bad css

[sd_garrett]

Site that is editable in Contribute 3 works fine. When I try to edit in
Contribute 4, I can browse to the page ok but when you click edit. it flashes
message "downloading draft" etc.. then Contribute 4 quits.

The page is listing in the side panel now but if I click on it BAM, Contribute
4 quits. no message no nothing.

My only guess is the particular implementation of css is causing it to crash.
(not sure what program generated it, as I didn't do the site, it's not DW code
anyway)

Being a newbie to css I have no idea what's compliant css and what's not.

I can live with editing the site in Contribute 3 but how do I remove files
listed in the Contibute 4 sidebar without opening them?

If anyone from adobe is interested .
[url]http://www.camberwellrotary.org.au/artshow/index.htm[/url] just save the page and
try to open it in Contribute 4. as I said it works fine in 3

cheers

I was able to reproduce this bug following your instructions, and will file this with Adobe on your behalf. I will post back to the forums when a solution or workaround is available.

sd_garrett,
In addtion to your question about about removing the files listed in the
Contribute 4 sidebar, you can remove the site entirely. This will also remove
any residual drafts left on the sidebar. In your case, the Camberwell Rotary
Artshow 2006 draft.

To do this go the following directory, note that your user name is inserted
at <username> from your pc settings.

Also you may need to figure out which Site number is associated with the
artshow/index.htm. Be careful not to remove any sites that you still want to
edit with Contribute 4.

Example: C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Local Settings\Application
Data\Adobe\Contribute 4\Sites\

The crash is reproducible for us due to some reasons and it is fixed
in our next release.

For now you can use contribute 4 with a following tweak/workaround -

1. Edit your global.css file
2. Edit your BODY {} style
3. Remove the "WHITE-SPACE: nowarp" style and save the CSS

Start using Contribute 4 -

Thanks
Arun
