Hyperlinks - how to create a hot spot link?

I would like to link to a new page from a button at the footer area only.
This would not have a main menu level link.
So where would I add the page in the site plan?
Would I add a page to a 2nd tier and hide the name?
Also how do I 'call' the hyperlink?
Another scenario:
There doesn't seem to be a way to create a hotspot over part of an image to link from the background image. - AND any text or image/box that sits in the footer area on the master page(not in the background) moves around when there is a concertina panel that pushes it down.

Hi,
You can add the page as  top level page. When you're creating it in Plan mode, right-click the page thumbail and click Menu Options -> Exclude Page From Menus. This will make the page not appear in the main level menu link. You can call the hyperlink by selecting the object you want to have the hyperlink then clicking the drop down in the Control Strip where it says Enter Link. Select the page you would like to link to.
As for the footer link, I suggest using real text and applying the hyperlink to that by selecting the text frame and typing in the link. If you still want to use a hotspot, you can create a rectangle over the area you would like to link. Edit the rectangle to have no stroke and a 1% opaque (probably white) fill, then you will be able to use the link feature for that area. The biggest worry for creating a hot spot is that it may not line up correctly in all browsers as the page reflows, and depending on the rectangle's fill the link may not work properly in IE.
Thanks,
Dana

  • How to create a hot spot for a browser filled image?

    I have a background image created in Photoshop in the browser fill, scale to fill. 
    This is my landing page and would like to create a hot spot or "invisible" rectangle to link to another page in my site when clicked.
    I have this done and working, however, my problem is that when my browser size is enlarged or reduced, the spot where I want the hot spot to be changes in size and location.
    I want to create a hot spot that will keep its form around my logo no matter the screen size. 
    I have tried this with a no fill box and white stroke to see how it reacts with each fill property but cannot figure out how to create a box to be in a fixed position that will always match up
    with the browser fill image location and size.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi
    Have you tried to pin the box on page so that it should be in fixed position ?
    Also if want the box to be on some specific position with page scroll, then you can try applying scroll effects which would scroll the box on page but within defined positions.
    Thanks,

  • MS Excel document as attachment to a PDF document does not open with a hot spot/link in the PDF

    Hi, I have attached an excel file to a pdf document. I need to open this document in a new window by clicking an icon/hotspot in the pdf document to which it it attached.
    I am using the Link Tool to create a hot spot around the icon in the pdf. In the next window I am using the Go to Page view option, opening the attachment to its first page and clicking the "set link" button.
    For some reason, clicking the hotspot does not open the excel document as it does another pdf document.
    Need help resolving this issue with attached documents.

    Select a particular download file. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window.  In the Open With section choose the desired default application from the dropdown menu then click on the Change All button.
    For .dmg files use DiskImageMounter (System/Library/CoreServices/ folder.)

  • How to create 2 or 3 links URL in a jpeg ?

    How to create 2 or 3 links URL in a jpeg ?
    Do i use photoshop ?
    Thank you

    Images cannot contain links. All that stuff is done in the web page source code, e.g. using image maps, interactive SVGs or JavaScripts that track coordinates and respond accordingly. You will have to use a web authoring tool like Muse or Dreamweaver to produce such stuff, but since you seem to be a complete beginner, I strongly urge you to read up at least on some basic stuff about HTML, CSS and how the web ticks in general or you'll be forever lost.

  • How to have a hot spot open a small separate window

    Hi everybody.
                        I'm trying to make a new website.  My old one (burrjohnson.com) is in bad need for an upgrade.  In my new website that I'm currently working on, I have a page that has a picture in the main div section. The picture is an image that shows 9 guitars.  I have made each guitar in the image into a hot spot.  I've created a seperate html page for each hotspot to go to that has a description of each guitar.  I want people to be able to click on each guitar in the image and have a window pop up (seperate smaller page) that has the description for that particular guitar.  With my old website, on the "gigs" page (the page where people could see where my band is playing) if you clicked on the images I placed on that page, (like a pictire of the club for that gig) it opened a seperate window containing the clubs website.  I accomplished this by putting the clubs website address in the "link" portion of the properties inspector for the image in question. It opened a seperate window because in the "link" window, the address for the clubs website was preceded by "javascript:openNewLgWindow".  so, for example, in the gigs page, at the top, there is an image under the info for our gig we did in Putnam Valley on november 5th.  It is a Putnam Valley picture, and if you click on it, it opens a seperate window with their website.  In the properties inspector for that image, the "link" window has the following in it: 
    javascript:openNewLgWindow('http://www.pvpr.com/home.php?ID=ParkFacilities');
    This opens a seperate window with their address in it. 
    Now, with the new website page,  I want to have each hot spot surrounding each guitar open its respective info page, but putting the javascript part in front of the name of page does not work.   if I take out the javascript part, the hot spot will take you to the info page but it doesn't open a seperate window. 
    Idealy what I hope I can do is just have a small window open when you click on the hot spot (because the content in the info pages are only about 4 inches by 4 inches
    How can I do this??
    Thank you in advance

    Making a POP-UP window in Dreamweaver with the Behaviors Panel
    =================================================
    1.  Insert an image or type some text on your page.
    2.  Select it and go to the Link Field in your Properties Panel.  Browse for the file or type the full URL (http://example.com).
    3.  Go to the Behaviors Panel and hit the plus sign to add a new behavior.
    4.  Select Open Browser Window from the list.
    5.  Browse to file or type the URL (Yes, a 2nd time).
    6.  Set the height, width and other optional attributes for your pop-up window. (See link below for details)
    http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcd a9110b1f693f21-7b07a.html
    7.  Hit OK.
    8.  Verify that the behavior's trigger event is onClick.  If it's not, click the event box to show other trigger options.
    9.  Go back to the Properties Panel and replace the first URL in the link field with javascript:() This makes the primary link into a null link.
    Save your page and preview in browsers.
    PS. It takes longer to explain all these steps than it does to do it.
    Good luck,

  • How to create text buttons that link to video?

    I've finally gotten around to trying DVD SP, and even though I read the whole manual, it's not at all clear if, or how, you can create text buttons that link to the video you want to play, without displaying a clip of that video in the button itself.
    I have no problem creating a text button, but I can't change the font, and editing is counter-intuitive, unlike iDVD. I'd use iDVD, but it doesn't accept .m2v files, and it seems to think that my 6 videos of about 43 minutes each are too large for a DVD+DL disc, so it won't let me burn it or save it as a disc image.
    Does anyone have a way out of this conundrum, or am I SOL?
    Mulder

    It really isn't that hard!
    As Drew said, go into your menu and click and drag to create a button rectangle. With the button highlighted, look in the property inspector at the bottom and type in the text that you want to use. Ensure that you 'include in button highlight' and then set the colour choice for selected and activated.
    What you get is a simple line of text which illuminates when you roll over it, and changes colour when you click on it.
    Once that is done, click on the button area again and set the target to go to the piece of video that you want to have play back.
    You should also set the menu call and end jump on that track to make sure your viewer can get back to the menu.
    Once that is done the menu will show as a simple piece of text (more buttons means more bits of text, and the first button will be highlighted by default) and no video will play until the button is activated.
    DVDSP is definitely a steeper learning curve than iDVD but for very good reasons. You get far greater control and access to far more advanced features in DVDSP. This means that some things will seem harder, whereas in fact they are just different and the process for achieving the result you want is different. Much of what you want to know is in the manual and also in the tutorials which came with the app. Failing that there are several good online spaces where you can find a lot more information... not least of which is right here, of course!

  • How do I use hot spots in the most advanced style?

    My first attempt at Dreamweaver web design.http://www.deer-harbor-stewardship-project.org  . I will be resampling my images and doing a ton of other appropriate modifications but here are some initial questions. How do I use this "plug in" http://mattstow.com/experiment/responsive-image-maps/rwd-image-maps.html#blossom feature for my fluid grid responsive image map. How can I make my hot spots turn up little boxes with a photo, an illustration, or informatory text? How do I get ride of the spaces between divs? Sorry if I have asked too many questions. I better read the forum user rules if you have them. thanks for reading this. endurobob

    Anyhow, it makes no sense to put image tags within container tags meant to convey semantic meaning to their contents since an image has no semantic meaning.  So try changing this -
    <div id="header">

    to this -
    <div id="header">
          <img src="_images/title_scan.jpg" alt="newtitle">
    I completely agree with this. However, if having an image as a heading was important (if you styled it in a way you can not with CSS) you could always code the image into the heading through CSS.
    Something like:
    <h1 class="heading">This is a heading</h1>
    h1.heading {
    margin:0;
    width:??;
    height:??;
    background: #000 url(ImageURLHere) no-repeat;
    text-indent:-9999px; /* This will move the text of the heading off-screen */
    The 0 margin on the style should clear up the gap as well.

  • [iPhone] How to create an app store link that generates a search query?

    Does anyone know how to create a link to the app store that will bring the user directly to a search results page? I've noticed that there is a free application called "Art Gallery" that contains a menu option that will take you to other games from the same developer. Upon clicking this option, the user is taken directly to app store on the phone and the search field at the top has the company name in it.
    I'd like to be able to create a similar link for my game. I would normally just send the user to a website with iTunes links to all my games, but that functionality is currently broken on firmware 2.1. I've searched all over these forums and the Apple documentation to find the answer, but so far everything seems to suggest that the only ways to generate app store links are to 1.)use the iTunes link generator tool or 2.)right click a link in iTunes and copy the URL.
    Neither of the above methods seem to work for generating a URL that will actually search the store. I've also tried getting an artist link for my developer name, but the link doesn't work when I try launching it on the device. Has anyone solved this problem?

    you can try using an actionscript class like purePDF (http://www.sephiroth.it/weblog/archives/2010/02/purepdf_a_complete_actionscript_pdf_l.php) or use server-side code like fpdf (www.fpdf.org).
