Skill Level Beginner
Now that you know how to create a library item, in this movie we're going to take a look at how to modify a library item, so that once we make a change, that change will apply to all pages on which the library item appears. Now currently, I can't click on this library item. Well, I can't click on this library item on this page, because it's based off a template. But even if I go back to the index page, where I originally created this library item, I see that I can't select any individual text down here either. I can only select the entire library item. So, in order to edit this library item, I need to either come over back to my Assets panel, double- click the item here, or with the library item selected on any one of my pages, I can click Open. And that opens up the library item. I can see <<Library Item>> in double braces here. And you can see the file extension is .lbi, for library item. So let's just make a basic change here.
Let's say I want the copyright to show the range of dates the Teacloud website has been up. So I'll type 2003-2007. I'm going to go ahead and save that. And notice that, just like when working with templates, {italic} Dreamweaver{plain} knows which pages, or templates, are using that library item, and asks if I want to update them. Of course I do. I'll click Update. It tells me it's done. I'll click close. And we can see, my new copyright information has been added there. It's been added there. And it's been added here. And that's really all there is to working with library items.
Just make your change, save it, and any page containing that library item will be updated. And just so you're aware of this, if you select a library item on a page, now this can't be on a page like over here, where we're in a template, but on a page where the library item is by itself, or on the actual template itself. You can actually choose to detach the library item from the original source file. Meaning, if I want this to be editable again, and not a library item, I can just click Detach from original. It tells me this makes it editable, and it will no longer automatically update when the original changes. I'll click on OK. And you can see it's just back to being regular text now. So if you ever need to detach something from being a library item, that's the way you do it. And as a final note, let's turn that into a library item again.
And look at the Code. {italic}Dreamweaver {plain}turns items into library items simply by writing this comment tag around them. "BeginLibraryItem." It tells {italic}Dreamweaver{plain} where that library item is located. But notice the text still appears in here. So this is {italic}Dreamweaver-specific{plain} code. If you were to open this page in another web creation program, you wouldn't see library items, because those other creation programs did not understand what a library item is. So it would ignore this comment tag here. But you'd still be able to see, and edit, the text that's part of that library item.
And notice that {italic}Dreamweaver{plain} stores the library item inside the library folder, inside your Files panel. I mentioned that at the beginning of the chapter. Anytime you create a library item, {italic}Dreamweaver {plain}automatically generates this library folder. But again, you don't need to publish that folder when you go to publish your site to the web. Because, as you can see, the entire contents of that library item are already here on the page. So that's just a little bit of what's going on behind the scenes when you create a library item in {italic}Dreamweaver.{plain}

Year in review: Dallas theaters had a great 2012 all around
Photo: Allison Slomowitz/Special Contributor
1 - Matthew Posey, who helped found Dallas' alternative-theater scene in the 1980s, has returned to create new show after new show for his Ochre House in Exposition Park. Mean, a musical fantasia about the rise of the murderous Manson Family, was one of the most powerful pieces of theater ever seen in Dallas — horrifying and repulsive, but you couldn't take your eyes off it.

Due to the threat of severe weather, all four of the Multi-Agency Resource Centers (MARCs) will not be taking any new applications today and will suspend operations early.
People with tickets at the Moore MARC, for a time slot Thursday afternoon, should return on Saturday when those tickets will be honored, beginning in the morning.
The lunch meal will be served via mobile feeding vehicles today. The evening meal will not be delivered via mobile feeding trucks today. However, extra beverages and snacks will be available.
The American Red Cross understands that this is frustrating for those who have been affected by the tornadoes, but wants to assure people that help will continue to be available for weeks and months to come.
The Red Cross follows the lead of its government partners when making these decisions. "Our first priority is the safety of the people we serve and Red Cross workers," said Marita Wenner Disaster Operations Director. "We want everyone to be very careful today as the severe weather rolls through the area and we will be back tomorrow to help the people of Oklahoma."
The Red Cross urges all residents who may be affected by severe weather today to monitor weather radio, follow all warnings issued by authorities, know where your safe place is and have your safe place ready with supplies.

i had a car transported from texas to connecticut by loyalty auto transport. i purchased the car from a dealership in houston and the sales person there said that they shipped cars all the time. i asked if he could take care or the arrangments. he said it was no problem. the car left houston on a friday morning and was suppose to be in my parking lot sunday. i was given the phone number of the dispatcher by my car dealership. sunday came and went and no car had arrived. so, monday about mid day i called the dispatcher and ask about my car. i was told to contact the driver directly. i did just that. i called and left a messege for the driver. a few minutes later i recieved a phone call from the drivers son who told me that his dad was behind schedule and stuck in new jersey waiting for a customer so he could drop off another car, he said he would be in connecticut late that day. [continued below]....
when the car showed up in my parking lot, the hood, the nose and the fenders were covered in hydraulic fluid which had leaked on it from the trucks lift cylinders above. i showed the driver and he tried to wipe it off the fender with his glove??? at this point i was fairly dissappointed and walked away while the car was being unloaded.
after he finished unloading the car the driver approached me and showed me a picture of a car on some paperwork with a big circle around the front of it. he said " i circle all of it" to show me about the fluid on it. the then said "ok?" ... "you sign" .. i said this is for the fluid on the car? he said "i circle all of it".. "ok".. so i signed that my car was covered in his fluid... the story gets WORSE.
i immediately took the car to the car wash to get the hydraulic fluid off the car. when i washed the car, the fluid ate the clearcoat on my hood and 2 spots on my headlight covers.. great my present to my wife for 10 years of marriage and her 40th birthday now needs to be painted, and she doesnt even know the corvette exists.
so, i called the car dealership, and spoke to tim (my salesman). he sent me over there insurance paperwork and suggested i call. i did. i called the insurance agency listed and spoke to Kledis at 10k insurance (305-889-2964). i explained to her what happened. she said she would call loyalty auto transport and get back to me. she did, the next day. she said the driver told me you signed that the car was ok and thats it. i said, "no, i signed that the car was covered in hydraulic fluid based on the big circle he drew on the car". well, she told me she was waiting for a letter from her insured and would get back to me, but that i should hope for anything. so, i called my salesman back and explained it to him. he said he would leave bad feedback on the transport and that should get there attention. i waited 3 days and heard nothing, so i called the insurance agency back and spoke to Kledis, she said " i told you there was nothing that could be done, you signed for the car!" i asked to see the letter and was told no. i then went to explain that the driver didnt speak english and how was he saying there was nothing wrong to you when he could bearly say "ok" to me??? i then asked for the phone number for the insurance company and was again told no. i hung up, she was useless. i decided to call the dispatch number. i believe this is the owner. i told him what was going on and before i could politely finish he said " oh, yeah, you signed for it, nothing i can do"... i said i have pictures of the car in texas and pictures of the car on the truck in my parking lot. theyre was not any paint missing and it wasnt covered in hydraulic fluid. he told me to send him the pics. i did. that was 3 days ago and he wont return my phone calls..
So my hope is that someday they will admit guilt and pay my $950.00 body shop bill, but i doubt it..

second, i would like to take this time to re-explain the fact that i did in fact read the BOL, as you like to call it and did in fact sign that i was claiming damage. sorry if that wasnt clear. next, look closely at the first picture of the car. there isnt any clear coat missing on the car and i am suprised that you didnt bother to look at this, because you seem so informed. i would like to point out to you or anyone else that would like to clime in, that i didnt go about this to hurt someone nor did i intend to use ripoff report, however, i have been wronged by this trucking company. this damage WAS caused by the HYDRAULIC fluid. it is just as corrosive as brake fluid. it acts fairly quickly and doesnt take months. so instead of protecting a fellow trucking company lets be truthful here. further more those "OLD SPOTS" you are refuring to cant possibly be old and the paint on the car is in otherwise wonderful condition, again, look at the first pic of the car. that clearly shows the paint and condition and lack of clearcoat missing.. so please, lets be honest. hydraulic fluid can do this and it can do this in a relativily short amount of time.
now, back to the fact that Raul wont return my phone calls and and the only thing he kept repeating to me was "you signed" "you signed". says alot about his character and the practices of his company and his employees.
i know cars, i know my rights and i know BAD character when i am a victom of it. So, please believe me. I AM A VICTOM OF VERY BAD BUSINESS PRACTICE AND A VERY DISHONEST COMPANY..
Thanks for listening, and please dont EVER use LOYALTY AUTO TRANSPORT

Not knowing how your purchase transpired I cannot comment on if there was also a dealership issue but as someone who has over 19 years experience in moving cars, the pictures you posted is damage that would not have happened from a hydrolic fluid leak unless it sat and baked for a couple of months. Those spots are plain old defects in the clearcoat from being left out in the hot sun. We see it all the time here in the south.
We see many transporters these days that don't speak english. However the BOL you signed should have been in english and people need to read before signing. Normally is states you agree that the vehicle has been received in good condition unless noted otherwise.
ANYONE, if you are receiving a vehicle, the driver needs the BOL signed. Before signing, READ the statement telling you what you are signing. NOTE any damage on that paperwork and sign your name under your statement. This basically helps you with your claim as it says to the insurance company: " Yes, I received my car But I found some issues with it at the delivery that need to be addressed"

A local road project paid for by federal stimulus dollars is officially underway.
This week, crews began construction on improvements to the Interstate 70 interchange at Palisade.
C–DOT officials say the project will keep drivers safer by lengthening the eastbound on-ramp, giving them more time to merge onto the interstate.
Officials say $1.3 million in stimulus funds were doled out for the project.
C–DOT says until construction is complete in November, drivers may see just a few delays in the area.

U.S. News & World Report's Best Diets 2016, released earlier this month, ranked 38 diet plans. But the No. 1 diet may surprise you. The "Best Diets Overall" winner (for the sixth year in a row): the DASH diet.
Pictured Recipe: Corn & Black Bean Quinoa Salad
The DASH diet—or Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension—was developed to combat high blood pressure (hypertension is the medical term for high blood pressure). So it certainly doesn't fall into the realm of trendy diets like Paleo or the Alkaline Diet. To earn a spot on the "Best Diets" list, the diet plan has to help with weight loss and diabetes (research shows the DASH diet does)—as well as be easy to follow and nutritious (check and check). Their panel of...read full post »
Resolved: I will lose weight, save money and be healthier in 2016. Sound familiar? If you made even just one of these resolutions this year, I have a tip for how to get started…use your slow cooker. Sound wacky? Find out how this one handy piece of kitchen equipment can help you meet your new year's resolutions (and if your resolution is to revive 1970s cooking methods, even better!).
If your resolution is to: Lose weight
How the slow cooker can help: Cooking at home is a great first step in trying to get your diet under control. Since slow–cooked food relies on long, moisture-rich cooking, you can use less oil than if you were cooking with dry heat in the oven or on the stove. Using your slow cooker to make dinner means that dinner is ready when you get in the door—no more hungrily...
Eating clean may seem like a trendy idea, but in the EatingWell Test Kitchen, it's what we always think about when we develop recipes—and how we like to cook at home. It's simply a healthy—and sustainable—way to approach all your meals. "Clean eating means filling your plate with real, whole foods, eating a variety of fruits and whole grains, moderate amounts of lean meats and sustainable seafood, dairy, nuts and seeds and healthy oils," says Michelle Dudash, registered dietitian and author of Clean Eating for Busy Families. And, she adds, "Notice how you don't eliminate food groups?" Now that's good news!

Really, what can green tea not do? The world's most popular beverage boasts cancer-fighting catechins. Those antioxidants may also help to boost your immunity. One more...
I've had countless friends ask me if they should "go Paleo" and while I don't recommend the diet as a whole (read more about the pros and cons here), there are certainly some healthy principles that we all can borrow from the popular plan.
The Paleo Diet is based on eating like our ancestors ate, back when they were still hunting and gathering. It eliminates foods that weren't around back then, which makes sense since we've certainly taken some steps in the wrong direction in the past many thousand years when it comes to the foods we eat. (I'm looking at you, neon-orange cheese powder and doughnut cheeseburgers.)
With that in mind, here are 5 Paleo Diet principles worth following to help you eat better in our modern world.

Hello Noel, excellently designed plugin you have here. Definitely the slickest one I've seen with the modal popup.
I was wondering if you are tied to Stripe in some way or if there is the possibility of adding new gateways in the future.
I do like that Stripe is able to process credit cards so nicely but when it comes to donations I'm finding that Dwolla is going to be the best way to get the most amount of money to the cause. Since transactions are only $.25 for any amount and amounts under $10 are free it seems ideal for a donation plugin.
Thank you for your consideration.

Then I recieved my credit card bill in January of 2009 and saw there were two charges for $29.99 each - one dated December 19, 2008 and one dated January 5, 2009 for a My Fitness with only a 1- 800 number to call.
It took several hours or research to find that this was in connection with Tri-Slim - so then I called My Fitness Mentor / Fit Factory and was told that it was in the fine print that I automatically singed up and "agreed" to these charges when I signed up for Tri-Slim. Not only did I not receive any notification from My Fitness Mentor - but I have NO idea what I even paid for, or what benefit it was supposed to be to me. I did not even know anything about this whatsoever.
The customer service agent informed me that they were a seperate company from Tri-Slim and I should have known to cancel this seperately. She was extremely rude and refused to refund my two charges of $29.99 and the only thing she would do for me was to cancel my subscription.
They did not even send any notification with what was the website or usernames and passwords of my so-called benefit of receiving My Fitness Mentor - I guess we are supposed to know automatically what that was. There was NO communication whatsoever from My Fitness Mentor or Fit Factory - whatever it is called at any time.
This is probably the biggest rip - off I have ever recieved. It is also the biggest hoax - as someone would never know anything about this website we are "members" to - if you would not have seen the charge on your credit card. Two entire months after cancellation.
This company - Tri-Slim and My Fitness Mentor have terrible customer service, are a big hoax and to make it worse the actual product sucks!
DO NOT get involved with either of these companies. You will be ripped off and you will be taken for money.

Skill Level Beginner
Once your sequence is all set, you can safely print to tape. In this movie, we will explore the Digital Cut tool and a couple of the more popular options you have in laying your sequence to tape. All right, so I have my sequence here, and it's comprised of two tracks: a video mixdown and an audio mixdown. Again, that's not required, but it's a really great idea if you have a lot of video or audio tracks. One other thing I did was I moved my audio from A3 to A1. A1 is a stereo track, as indicated by these two speaker icons, and I just wanted it that way so that I could have just one track of video on V1 and one track of audio on A1.
Another thing I did was I actually transcoded this sequence from its HD resolution to an SD resolution, as indicated right here in the Format tab. I did that because I just have a standard-definition DV camera connected to my system, so I wouldn't be able to go out HD. However, in my Video Quality menu, I am still going out at Full Quality. Lastly, I did shorten this just for demonstration purposes, so we only have about six seconds of the digital cut, but it will allow you to see how the digital cut starts and then we will allow it to finish so that you can see exactly how it works.
Before opening the Digital Cut tool, I want to go over the three types of digital cut. An insert edit is the most is the most precise method of digital cut and gives you an exact level of frame accuracy. In an insert edit, the sequence timecode exactly matches the timecode that is pre-laid on the tape and only video and audio are printed on the tape, not time code. Therefore, to perform an insert edit you need to pre-black an entire tape, which means that you have taken the time to record a black video signal to it, laying a control track on the entire tape.
An assemble edit also gives you precise control over your start time, just like an insert edit, but it does not require that you black the entire tape in advance. Rather, you only need to black the very beginning, enough for the sequence to grab on to the control track. The assemble edit then commands your deck to generate control track on the fly as the digital cut progresses. Lastly, crash-record edit can be performed with or without a small pre-black portion on your tape. Now, you usually don't perform a crash record with any expectation of syncing the sequence timecode to your tape timecode.
As with an assemble edit, your deck generates a control track and timecode on the fly as the digital cut progress. Now, if you are recording to a DV deck or camera like I am in this case, you will record a crash-record edit. I should also mention that if you just have your deck right beside you and you wanted to perform a crash record, one other method is to just press play and record on your deck and then play your sequence and then everything on your sequence will be laid to tape. However, we are going to look at the Digital Cut tool, assuming that you want remote control over your deck.
So, we are going to come up to Output > Digital Cut, and let's take a look at a couple of these tools. Here in the upper left are the tracks that are being laid to tape. Again, I only have two, so only two are listed, but if you had a lot, they would all be listed here. We have our Play Digital Cut button as well as our Hold button and a Preview button that will allow you to look at what it will look like without actually printing it. Here is our output resolution. And we have a couple of buttons here. Some of them are pretty useful. Entire Sequence will basically ignore any in or out points that you have in your sequence; however, if you leave this unchecked and you have in or out points, it's going to respond to any of those in or out points and just print that portion of your sequence.
Digital Cut Safe mode instructs Media Composer to take a look at your sequence and alert you if there is anything that might go wrong. For example, if you have both SD and HD in your sequence, it's going to ask you to transcode it. Or if you have a lot of un-rendered effects it's going to ask you to render those. You can also ask Media Composer to stop the digital cut if you come across any dropped frames, and you can also have it add black at tail, which is really useful for both assemble edits and crash records. Here is where you decide if you want remote control over the deck or Local.
Again, if you have the Digital Cut tool open, you are probably going to choose Remote control. And I am just going to come over here and show you that, again, because I just have a simple DV camera connected to my system, I only have the option to crash record. If you have a more sophisticated deck connected to your system, you will have the option to assemble edit or crash record accordingly. And then because we are only crash recording, we are going to ignore our sequence time. But again, if you wanted a timecode- accurate sequence, you would want to choose one of these other options.
And then down below here are our deck controls. Now again, I really shortened this up so we are only recording just over six seconds, but I wanted to show you the entire thing, so I am just going to press Play Digital Cut. It's going to ask me to mount the tape. The tape is already mounted, so I will click OK. (clip playing) All right, our digital cut is complete. Let's go ahead and click OK.
Printing your show to tape is such an important step because you don't want to have made all the effort in putting your sequence together just to have it printed shoddily at the end. Take your time with the step and make sure that you consider all of the time- code accuracies needed at this stage in the process.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
I was in the middle of continuing an existing business and needed some accounting and tax preperation services. I signed up after consulting with my employee (former owner) and other information (not enought time spent there obviously)
The cost seemed slightly higher than expected, but hey they were covering my a*% if I was audited and they were also completing my and my wife's personal taxes.
Well the first indicator should have been the fact that it was not disclosed that they could not prepare my first year taxes. That had to be completed by another person/company. Then I was sent this "kid" who new nothing about my computerized accounting software that is widely used across Canada by other automotive shops such as mine. 6 months into this fiasco he had not completed 1 single entry. Scramble time for me and my new bookeeper.
Then came the disaster of my an my wife's personal income tax returns. As we have a child who is diagnosed with a dis-ability we had kept every single reciept since his birth, only to be told by this professional representitive of FBC that we cannot submit the reciepts.
Once the personal taxes were completed we received them on the filing deadline date. Once opened (to be signed) it was discovered that they mitakenly used my income for my wife's return and my wife's income for my return????????? Several frantic phone calls my wife finally was able to get in touch with the only shining light in this whole company (I wish I could remember her name) she worked diligantly to correct our taxes on time.
So for all my troubles and many trials, FBC appologized and assigned me a new professional rep. He was sharper than the old. He was going to fix all the mistakes. He was going to learn all the new rules of the "Child Disability Tax Credits"
He has been to my office 1 time. He has called, but apparently I have been busy running a business (2 person) I have a bookeeper that he needs to consult with, not me. I just sign.
Both my wife and I have been audited by the CRA for our personal taxes 3 years in a row now. We never have before signing on with FBC.
After 3 years with FBC I am no longer a client, they still have my $4300.00 and I do not feel comfortable nor confident they can complete my T1 or T2 taxes fairly and unbiased as i have made several complaints and requests for a refund.
1st time FBC flatout refused. Then I filed a complaint with BBB and I received an offer of $1800.00, with the aid of my laywer I refused. Then cam the phone call from another manager of FBC who investigated the case. Another offer of $1900.00, but still no complete refund. I have asked for an invoice to show the details of the costs that FBC has incured to represent the remaining $2400.00 they are wanting to withhold. A simple yet understandable request. If you perform a service, you provide and invoice. To date FBC will not provide one. That was an expensive visit. 1 call to my office by one individual for apx 1.5 hrs $2400.00???
The bottom line is that FBC my be good or even great for what their namesake is "FARMERS BUSINESS CONSULTANTS" they need to get back to basics. FBC has messed up my business and personal taxes. I am further investigating the practice of requesting "monies up front" before a service is provided. Do you pay 1 year in advance for services to be made to your home, car, computer, NO! According to my current accounting professional (love her) this is against the CRA and business practices standards.
Stay away from FBC until you fully research their practices and proceedures. If you do sign with them record every telephone, text, e-mail and visit by anyone associated with FBC to help aid you if you every requirer to follow through with filing a complaint. I was filled with empty verbal promises by FBC, none of which have been completed.

Pay less taxes
AUTHOR: Heinz - (Canada)
SUBMITTED: Saturday, December 08, 2012POSTED: Saturday, December 08, 2012
Unfortunately he left FBC in Summer 2008!!!! In March 2009 I got audited for the year 2006 and 2007. Thats when we found out that this guy did not declare my "one man" LTD. company to Can. Revenue agency; even though he had all the evidence in his hands (Invoices, LTD. cheques; Business number etc.) . Instead he put all the business under my previus Propietorship and personal tax.
After his (FBC) -sucessor cleaned up the whole mess I was left with a huge Tax burden for my LTD. and my personal Taxes. The new guy even said: " don't worry; you will be even with the Revenue Agency at the end!".....Ya right...!!!! ....PAY LESS TAXES...????
Of course I paid my taxes according to FBC's and CRA's assessments for every year ; not knowing that there might be something wrong. Nobody thinks there "is" something wrong ; you trust such a big , established company (FBC) and pay them a ridicoulous Fee every year; and after you get hit on the forehead for doing the right thing and be a good citizen and pay your Taxes???!!!. ..and those guys they do a "shitty" job, lie to you and leave their members behind them!
anyway I am not with that company (FBC ) anymore.
Be careful out there with that company; what I heard the so called "Consultants" are not chartered accountants and they work for a commission as well. Well I have no proof for that but in the aftermath it looks to me that could be true!!??
Are you an owner, employee or ex-employee with either negative or positive information about the company or individual, or can you provide "insider information" on this company?

No flour no sugar diet food list designed to reduce the calories by excluding food with white (flour) and sweet "deaths."
The Basics of "no flour no sugar diet food list"
Foods containing sweets and white flour higher grades, poor materials useful for the organism – in contrast to cereals, vegetables and legumes, where a lot of vitamins, minerals and dietary fibers. No flour no sugar diet food list aimed at reducing the consumption of so-called "empty calories", contained in the carbohydrate foods, which is also often still fat (like pizza or donuts).
No flour no sugar diet food list urges consumers who want to lose weight, carefully study the composition of purchased meal and also doing some basic exercise for half an hour a day.
No flour no sugar diet food list relieve slimming by eliminating the tedious calorie counting. These diets have some interesting tricks.
Diet Tricks
1. We must be excluded from the menu gluten (a sudden allergy). We can prepare homemade bread, noodles and pastries each of anything that is not wheat. This may be oat, soy, rice or corn.
2. Instead of a favorite pasta sauce, we can file a spaghetti squash with pumpkin or vegetable marrows. However, the sauce should not contain saccharides. In the pasta for lasagna instead of flour makes sense to add grated zucchini or eggplant.
3. Bread and pastries can also be replaced with creative ideas, and not just one. A large burger wrapped in a lettuce leaf, for example. Small, individual pizzas cannot bake on the dough, but on the big mushroom hats. Such a meal would look extremely unusual and appetizing.
4. Instead of sugar, use alternative sweeteners. Also, we can taste the sweet fresh fruit that can help dieters.
5. Many products, which are not considering sweets, contain some sugar. For example, yogurt, ketchup, salad dressings. With these products, we have to be careful.
Approximate daily no flour no sugar diet food list plan. (Trial version for two days)
Day One:
Breakfast: egg muffin, fresh strawberries; Morning snack: a slice of melon; Lunch: Greek salad;
Afternoon snack: yogurt with no added sugar; Dinner (or late lunch): chicken breast in Dijon sauce, spinach salad, brown rice boiled.
Day Two:
Breakfast: porridge without sugar, low-fat milk, peach; Morning snack: a slice of pineapple; Lunch: Green salad with tuna, tomato, carrot; Afternoon snack: boiled soybeans; Dinner: meatballs in tomato sauce, hominy cornmeal (polenta).
We also provide no flour no sugar diet food list.

I'm trying to customize my search results template and am having trouble with one detail. For all of the results I have it set to display the category and other misc details. This is great for posts, but I don't want to display that info for pages (i'm using a plugin to search both pages & posts).
In the loop I need some kind of if/else statement to detect whether that item is a post or page. I've tried is_page() but that doesn't work. What is the correct syntax to use to detect whether the post_type is page or post?
I've also tried this but it doesn't work:
<?php if ($post_type = 'page') : ?>
display this
<?php else : ?>
display something else
<?php endif; ?>
