User Guide
Use your browser to open the file makepassword.html located in the GoLive CS2/Modules/JScript/Actions/Message
folder. The password you choose is case-sensitive and should not contain any spaces. Click the link on the
makepassword.html page. Enter the password you want to use in the dialog box that appears and click OK. Write
down the encrypted version of the password that follows "The encrypted password is" in the alert message.
Name the page that will be password-protected using the nonencrypted version of your password plus the suffix
.html. For example, if your password is Sommer, the password-protected page name must be Sommer.html.
Trigger the action with a user-triggered event in a page other than the page that will be password-protected. (Do not
link to the password-protected page or to anything else with the trigger link.) Choose Action > Message > Password.
In the Encrypted Password text box, enter the encrypted password you wrote down. For Alert On Correct Login,
enter any message you want to display when viewers enter the correct, nonencrypted password. Make sure the
password-protected page and the page that links to it are located in the same directory.
Set Status
The Set Status action allows you to display a custom message in the status line at the bottom of the browser window.
Trigger the action with a browser-triggered event set to OnLoad, user-triggered event, or timeline-triggered event.
Choose Action > Message > Set Status from the Message. Enter a message in the text box.

Multimedia actions

About Multimedia actions
The Multimedia menu in the Actions palette contains actions that interact with layers, sound, or images on a page.
Drag Layer
The Drag layer action allows viewers to drag a layer around the page in their browser window. Make sure that your
page has a layer with content within it or visible properties before you create the action. Trigger the action with a
browser-triggered event set to OnLoad. Choose Action > Multimedia > Drag Layer. Choose the layer you want to
make draggable from the Layer pop-up menu.

Flip Move
When triggered for the first time, the Flip Move action moves a layer to a new specified position. When triggered for
the second time, it moves the layer to a second specified position that can be the original starting location or a new
location. For example, you can attach this action to a button to let the viewer flip an object into view that is initially
hidden beyond the edge of the browser window and flip it back out of sight again.
