DWfile.setAttributes()

Availability

Dreamweaver MX.

Description

This function sets the system-level attributes of a particular file.

Arguments

fileURL, strAttrs

• The fileURL argument, which is expressed as a file:// URL, identifies the file for which you are setting the attributes.
• The strAttrs argument specifies the system-level attributes for the file that is identified by the fileURL argument. The following table describes valid attribute values and their meaning:

  Attribute Value	Description
  R	Read only
  W	Writable (overrides R)
  H	Hidden
  V	Visible (overrides H)

  Acceptable values for the strAttrs string are R, W, H, V, RH, RV, WH, or WV.

  You should not use R and W together because they are mutually exclusive. If you combine them, R becomes meaningless, and the file is set as writable (W). You should not use H and V together because they are also mutually exclusive. If you combine them, H becomes meaningless, and the file is set as visible (V).

  If you specify H or V without specifying an R or W read/write attribute, the existing read/write attribute for the file is not changed. Likewise, if you specify R or W, without specifying an H or V visibility attribute, the existing visibility attribute for the file is not changed.

Returns

Nothing.
