Help with hyperlink to an email in iWeb

While using iWeb and clicking on my link to send me an email I receive the error: "Error Opening Link mailto:(the email it's supposed to send to).  I have "enable as a hyperlink" and "make hyperlinks active" boxes checked.  Help!

Forget what he said.  He obviously did not read your post properly to see that it was an e-mail link that you were trying to create and not an ordinary website link.
You don't need to make hyperlinks active for them to work.
When you say that you typed the e-mail address out in full, did you also do this under the hyperlink section when you created the link?  If not, then you need to do that also, so select your text and open the Inspector and go to hyperlink and then select the e-mail link at the top from the drop down menu and then enter your e-mail address in that box below and the e-mail message that you want and then it should work.
If there is still an error when you click on the link and you have done all those things, then check your e-mail settings in your e-mail client and see if you need to alter anything there.

  • Urgent Help with Date and then email in ASP

    Hii,
    USING ASP AND ACCESS
    I am implementing a classified section for my website and I
    am displaying
    everything successfully.
    When the user posts the classified he selects how many days
    he wants his
    POST like 10 days, 20 days or 30 days and i can successfully
    show the posts
    So if the user posts on says 1st of July 2006 and selects 10
    days for his
    post to be showed on my website
    THEN
    8th July 2006 an email shud go to him saying if he wants to
    keep his POST
    for another 10 days, 20 days or 30 days with 3 links
    and IF YES the 1st july 2006 date must be changed to
    Date of Post + Number of days selected initially + Number of
    days selected.
    I am using two columsn in the DB for this date thing one is
    the strPostDate
    and strAddDate
    So basically the number of days selected for the post to be
    shown on the
    website keeps adding up each time the user clicks on the link
    for 10 days,
    20 days or 30 days with 3 links
    please help need it badly :-)

    I have to disagree with my colleages above - this isn't that
    hard at all. I have done it a number of times successfully. It does
    depend on a "trick", but who cares as long as it works.
    Basically, the "trick" says that your site will receive a
    visit once in a while! It better, or why have the site!
    In ASP, use the global.asa file. In the "Session start"
    section of global.asa, which is fired off every time a new comer
    arrives, you have an opportunity to:
    1. check if it's ok to check who needs an email (in other
    words, you don't want to be checking EVERY time someone comines on
    board every last listing on your site. So what i would do is allow
    it to do the full check once daily, say after midnight.
    2. If its ok to check who needs an email, do so, and send the
    emails out.
    3. After sending out emails, fix it so you will not be
    resending uptil teh next time window. You could also set "flags"
    for any lister where you sent an email 1st round email has been
    sent.
    The above is one way.
    Sometimes i do the very same thing, but i simply tie the
    checking routine into the home page.
    Both schemes work as long as you have a single visitor once
    in a while. if you never had a visitor to teh site, not even one,
    then the emails would never be sent. But as i said if you go days
    without a visit, better start looking for a new vocation!
    www.brunswickdowntown.com is a site i did that has a
    sign-up-to-stay informed email system, its been running for a year
    just fine, all automatically, using the method of #1 (but for
    asp.net, same difference!)

    Hi there!
    i have a background image that I want to pop into an html email widget for the email's background...  here is the web link I created in Photoshop: file:///C:/Users/Rachel/Desktop/iMuse%20Clients/LeadMachine360/Email%20Signatures/tileabl e-metal-textures-2.html
    If anyone could please help me out that would be AWESOME!  I've attached pics of the background & I'm using Infusionsoft email builder which allows for HTML widgets.  I have a code that I use for my landing pages & webforms which works, tried that but no dice!
    Any help would be much appreciated - I'm an html newbie!
    Here is the code that I use for landing pages & works great, tried it for the email & it was a fail:

    Muse

    Not sure what you expect. Your URL is absolute and pointing to a local file resource. It's not a proper relative HTML link. Beyond that it's toatlly unclear how you actually plan to load your image and where they are hosted, so nobody can tell you anything. Either way, there is an obviously painful lack of understanding of even the most basic web techniques, so the best advise anyone would give you is to spend some time with a web search and actualyl learn some of that stuff...

  • HELP with photo attacments on email on my IPHONE 4s

    I just recently upgraded to iOS5.0.1 ON MY IPHONE 4s and since then, i am having problems with attachments on email messages.  I send an email to my @yahoo account, so that i can view it on my iphone 4s.  I want to be able to save it on the phone as a photo and or use it for my wall paper.In the email, it first shows the icon to click to download, i click it and i see the download go through, but then i cannot find the pic anywhere on the iPhone (not in Photos, not in Camera Roll) AND the email now shows the "?" where the attachment link was.  Any help out there for this?

    I have the same problem. I have tried selectively quitting the Videos app and restarting, to no avail.  Rebooting phone does not solve it either.
    In addition, I have one movie, which played perfectly on my iPhone 4, but which does not play beyond a certain point.  It crashes the Videos app.

  • Help with setting up hotsync email only - no dataplan

    Hello,
    Did some searching and could not find what I was looking for.
    I have a palm centro without a dataplan. I don't want to pay for a data plan, but I would like to be able to get email via the hotsync operation like I was able to with my Tungsten E Palm handheld. Anyone here help me out or point me in the right direction? For my tungsten E I used versamail and had no issues.
    Thanks
    Post relates to: Centro (AT&T)

    Versamail 3.5 and higher no longer support local sync on email. i guess your next option is 3rd party..like intellisync or something

  • Need help with account sharing and email

    I'm an inexperienced Mac user with a G5, dual 2.0 processors and 1.5 meg ram. Just installed iLife 05 and having an iPhoto problem. My spouse and I have separate user accounts on the same pc. We'd like to share our photos with one another (they're actually the same photo's). On my account, iPhoto email is "mail", no problem. On hers it displays Entourage. I can't change it from preferences pane. Greyed out. On my account it shows America on line but the email icon is "mail" Can you help. We both want "mail"
    What is the proper way to share this account? Do we check preferences and share or do we go to the User accounts and move the photo library? Please provide a basic explanation to one who is not really familiar with the workings of a Mac. That's why I went to a Mac in the first place. It just generally works.
    Thanks in advance.

    The iPhoto sharing that was in the previous version doesn't seem to exist. There is now iCloud Photo Sharing.

  • Help with Hyperlinks...

    I've created two books with multiple chapters. Both books are the same with the exception that one book is in full color for publication to the web, with the second being black/white for printing. All of the hyperlinks that I created in the black/white version are correct. When I created the color version of the publication that has the exact same hyperlinks, that's where I'm getting the problem. I guess my question is, can I "import" the hyperlinks from the black and white publication into the color publication? Any help would be appreciated...
    ~Vince

    Did you take the b/w file and just add colour? I'm not entirely sure why the hyperlinks would go missing. (If the document was created for print, are the hyperlinks present as interactive elements?) Is there a reason to build the colour version from scratch?
    If you are in CS4 you could try using conditional text and placing the black and white images and colour images on a different layer. to keep your b/w and colour version in the same file. Thus eliminating the need to import hyperlinks.
    Someone on here is bound to have a better method, but I discovered that exporting all stories to a folder I could drag the text files to an unused master page and the greyed out links would show up in the hyperlinks panel. I don't think I'd opt for that route though.

  • Need help with hyperlinks in InDesign CS3 to PDF

    I've done everything I can see in the forums, in the InDesign help and in InDesign for Dummies... but other than spelling out the entire URL in the text (IE where you can see it in the document) I cannot get a URL hyperlink to work after exporting it to a PDF file. The sample document I used does show the link in the hyperlink pallette... I can even use the "forward" and "back" to identify the link in the document and actually open the link online from there. But - the link is not working in the PDF file. What am I doing wrong? I'm totally confused. Normaly, I figure these kinds of things out and this one seemed to be simple/straight forward.
    Thanks!

    If you're not using tagged PDF, then use it. If you are, disable it. Also, make sure you're fully patched to 5.0.4.

  • Help with sm 4.0 email and ccms

    Hi,
    I'm having problems generating emails in sm 4.0.
    I've configured the landscape in t/c solution_manager and have alerts appearing for my trainng system. I'm just checking cpu at moment. I've set the treshholds to a low value in order for alerts to be constantly created. I can confirm the alerts and wait 10 mins and the alert is in red again for cpu.
    I've configured the remote agent and it's appearing in RZ21 has active.
    In RZ21 i've gone to config central system >>> assign central auto-reactions.
    I've added my sid, mte class and autoreaction.
    For the autoreaction i'm using:
    Function module : SALO_EMAIL_IN_CASE_OF_ALERT
    Parameters:
    SENDER                 osheaj
    RECIPIENT              [email protected]
    RECIPIENT-TYPEID       U
    I've activated central system dispatching and it finishs ok.
    I've checked table: CSMCENTOOL and it's got a number of entries for the monitored system.
    I've checked so01 and scot and there are no messages or emails waiting to be sent.
    I've also configured everything in client 000.
    I'm not getting any error messages.
    Does anyone know anyother tables i can check to track where the problem is?
    Thanks
    Jim

    Hi Jonna,
    Have you configured everything in 000.
    2.     Go to Technical Infrastructure >>> Configure Central System >> Assign Central Autoreactions:
    3.     Click on new in central auto reaction and give it a name.
    4.     Add the following properties to it: function:salo_email_in_case_of_alert
                     control: only in cen
                    parameters : see entries above
                    release : auto-reaction
    5.      Select System ID, MTE Class and Auto Reaction
    6.      Click on Assign Central Auto-Reactions 
    7.      Hit back button and go to configure central system >> activate central system dispatching
    Also make sure job: SAP_CCMS_MONI_BATCH_DP is running.
    You can check in RZ20 if the alerts are actually been generated and then also manually execute the alert to check if the emails are being created.
    Hope this helps....
    On ditribution list's i assume for recipent you just enter the email address for the distribution list. And if the sender has a generic email address like [email protected] you can enter this in the user id of the user generating the alerts.

  • Need Help with Scheduling, Saving, and Emailing a Report From Apex

    My ultimate goal is to schedule a report to be created in apex, save it to the database (in pdf), and then email it.
    I can schedule the proc which underlies the report. I can send an email from the databse. But I don;t know how to do all three of these in an automated fashion via apex. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Good afternoon,
    I run this type of process in a complete Windows environment - the client was Windows XP and the Database & Application Server were both Windows Server 2003.
    Typically, I would build a .BAT file within a Page Procedure that included a line to run the report, saving to a .PDF file and then generate a sql statement that would send an email to the user. In your case, you would want to email the .PDF as an attachment. My email was a notification that the report was ready for them to download and they would access their FTP folder.
    You can then schedule the .BAT file to run using the Oracle Scheduler to have that process run as an executable. The scheduler allows you set the date/time the process should run. To do this, your user must have CREATE JOB and CREATE EXTERNAL JOB privileges to run external jobs. (see the Oracle DB Admin manual for further details).
    Good luck,
    Don.
