Absolute link issue

I'm building an application that has numerous folders with
the same element in each folder. i.e. header.jpg. The elements
change from folder to folder, but their position in the folder is
the same, so /images/header.jpg is consistent throughout.
I'm building a site using dreamweaver templates, and want it
to print precisely that line, but whenever I build a template, it
creates a relative link. Is there a way to force dreamweaver to
leave that link alone?
Thanks,

Absolute links on hml page in local directory not working

All the absolute links on my html pages (which are on my hardrive) are being treated as local links and are therefore not working - i.e. Firefox is adding the local file path before the url. For example, the original link is: http://www.insidehousing.co.uk/legal/criminal-conviction-for-illegally-subletting-tenant/6518844.article
But Firefox is adding the directory path so the url string becomes: /www.insidehousing.co.uk/legal/criminal-conviction-for-illegally-subletting-tenant/6518844.article%E2%80%9D
It is also being appended with: %E2%80%9D (which, when tested from a Word page, leads to site but generates page not found error).
For testing purposes, is there any way I can reconfigure Firefox to parse my links as absolute?
Many thanks

Thanks, both. I have carried out cor-el's suggestion of replacing the smart quotes with dumb quotes, then tried viewing link on file again using different encoading, including UTF-16 - same result as before.
Below I've set the HTML of the whole page, as per yalam96's request (it includes cor-el's suggested fix to the "prosecute" link):
<pre><nowiki><h3>Who do you need to inform (in the UK)?</h3>
If you have a mortgage, you will need to inform your provider (with most lenders this shouldn't be an issue – you do not need “consent to let” as you would if you were letting out the whole property) but you do still need to inform them; why? This is partly for the protection of your lodger, if you should default on the mortgage or die, but mostly for your own protection – if the property was destroyed or badly damaged because of the negligence of your lodger.
If own your property and it's leasehold, check the lease – you may need permission from the freeholder.
If you rent your property, you will need to firstly check with your landlord (this applies whether you rent privately or from a public landlord – Local Authority or Housing Association), and get their permission in writing, just as you would with a mortgage provider. Incidently, in the UK, a public landlord is only likely to object to the let if moving a lodger in would mean your home becomes over crowded (e.g. you have a two bed flat and your children would have to share your bedroom). They will also object – they might even <a href=”http://www.insidehousing.co.uk/legal/criminal-conviction-for-illegally-subletting-tenant/6518844.article">prosecute</a> - if you move out and let the whole property to the “lodger” (who wouldn't be a lodger in that case, but a full tenant, with full tenant's rights).
You may also need to cancel any existing residential home insurance and take out <a href=”http://www.landlordinsurance.biz/landlord-insurance-guides/landlord-insurance-faq/”>landlord insurance</a>. A few residential policies will, however, allow lodgers. Landlord insurance will not cover the lodger's possessions, they will need to get their own insurance, known as Tenant Insurance – policies can be compared on sites such as <a href=”http://www.confused.com/campaign/home-insurance/tenants-content-insurance?MediaCode=1054&kw=lodger+contents+insurance+broad&gclid=CPbbn9-Nj7MCFanItAod3GAAog”>confused.com</a>
If you get a single occupier's discount on your council tax, you will need to inform your local authority, unless your lodger is <a href=”https://www.gov.uk/council-tax/council-tax-exemptions”>exempt</a> from paying council tax (e.g. they're a university student).
NB People claiming Jobseeker's Allowance and most other benefit claimants are not exempt – they are, however, usually entitled to Council Tax Benefit to help with some or all the cost of their council tax.
If you're letting on a Monday – Friday basis (to someone who only needs a week night let), this person would not normally pay council tax at your property, as they already pay against their main (family) home. However, if for whatever reason you and your Monday – Friday lodger decided that they would use your address as their main home, they would then become liable to pay council tax at your address and you would lose any single occupier's discount.
If you claim any kind of means tested benefit (such as job seeker's allowance, housing benefit or council tax benefit) as benefit rules currently stand (January 2013) your rental income will affect this. Contribution based Job Seeker's allowance (JSA(C)) will be affected if your weekly rental income exceeds £50. If you're on income based jobseeker's allowance (JSA(I)), it's very likely to be affected; however, to what extent will depend on your rental earnings and circumstances and a DWP adjudicator will decide this.
However, from October 2013, when Universal Credit takes effect in the UK, <a href=”http://www.insidehousing.co.uk/tenancies/lodger-rules-to-ease-impact-of-bedroom-tax/6522846.article?MsgId=57059”>a public housing tenant's income from renting a room will no longer affect their benefit entitlement.</a></nowiki></pre>

Slow program response, crashes when creating titles and dynamic link issues

Dear reader,
I am now trialling Adobe CC OSX with Premiere Pro and After Effects before deciding to subscribe but I am experiencing a lot of issues while working.
I am now working on an animation, but editing raw mxf files also gives crashes and slow responses/ program refreshes.
1) Slow mouse response
2) Slow program refresh while key framing visuals
3) Rendering in PP is extremely slow when AE is open in the background, when closing AE and re-initiate the render in PP it renders super fast
4) Crashes. When I overlay titles in my time line PP regularly crashes
5) Dynamic Link issues when working combined in AE and PP where file connections in the time line get lost when the AE project has too many sequences
I am curious to find out if other people are also experiencing these issues.
I am indecisive in getting the paid yearly plan or move to FCPX instead? Or should I get a new MacPro and is this model too old?
It worked fine 2 months ago, however I was still working on FCP7. After updating it is really bad working with it...
My system consist of:
MacPro mid-2010
OSX 10.9.5 (13F34) (new installation)
2x2,66Ghz 6-core Intel Xeon
24GB DDR3 ECC
Nvidia Quadro K5000, 4GB
2x PCIe SSD 1TB
2x HDD 3TB
2x HDD 2TB
Feedback is much appreciated! Best regards, Alexander

this does work for basic colour correction but not when trying to grade an entire suqence to achieve a specific style, applying a vingette or certain effects have to be done in after effects.
I want to try and get my whole sequence into after effects but preserve the edits and effects added in permier pro, is there any way to do this?

I’m using version 11.0.10. So where the Menu resides in a folder ready to be burnt on to a CD, that same folder is where the links point to.

Converting absolute links to relative links

Using RH 7 HTML our corp wants to have help files able to function as "standalone" files on local PC's without network or server for business continuity. Presently most files have 150 or less topics and are published to a server. External files are in sub folders within the folder where the published file is located. Links to external attachments (.doc, .xls, .pdf, etc.) are absolute links and need to be changed to relative. An example existing link would be: HTTP://server.com/help/attachments/fname/sample.doc. Help is the foler where tje published file is located and Attachments is the folder where the external files to be linked are located. When link is changed to: ../Attachments/ some links work and some don't. I discovered that some links require: ../../Attachments/ to function correctly. It appears that links that are not in the root path of the project manager require additional ../'s. I am trying to find out how RH7 reads the links and how to back out of a directory and when. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

The easiest, and most efficient, way is to replicate the folder environment onto your local machine (all folders and files exactly as they will appear in the destination area), and let RH do the heavy lifting.
Therefore, to link to anything outside the current RH project, the method is:
Select Link to: File in the Hyperlink dialog.
When you select your link destination from the Select File dialog and click Open, the Link to: field initially displays the absolute path.
Click OK.
Now, double click the link to reopen the Hyperlink dialog; RH has magically transformed the link into a relative path.
(You'll get an info message about linking to an external file...when you initially create the link and every time you open it...just ignore it.)
We use this method in a 42-project merged project, and it's never failed us. The only time that your links will break is when you copy or move a file to another location. Since the relative paths are no longer valid, RH will automatically assign the links to within the current topic; you'll need to re-assign the link manually.
Good luck,
Leon

URL link issue

Hi
I am trying to create a link in my project to one of our
company intranet pages. I am using a click box and the URL - it
works fine in the Preview from Slide or next 5 slides, but when I
Preview in Web Browser it doesn't connect. Any suggestions as to
what might be the cause?
Thanks
Alex

Hi Alex
Hmmm, before investigating too deeply, I'm seeing some
familiarity here. For starters, the first link is to a .PDF. It's
been my experience that links to .PDF and Word .DOC files is "iffy"
at best. If you truly copied and pasted the links, I'd first try
removing the %20 from that first link. That's something the browser
normally inserts for a space. So instead of:
http://wlgweb/Corporat/HumanResources/Staff%20Conduct/EmailInternetUsagePolicy.pdf
Change it to read:
http://wlgweb/Corporat/HumanResources/Staff
Conduct/EmailInternetUsagePolicy.pdf
This may help and it may just be twisting in the wind. But
I'd try that first. I've often seen linking issues arise from that
silly %20. If possible, try to avoid that. I'm guessing here that
it may not be possible to control in your case as someone else may
be in control of those names. I've personally always opted to
either use a mix of upper/lower case names ( StaffConduct ) or
substitution of an underscore where spaces would normally occur (
Staff_Conduct ).
Other wierdness I've seen when linking to .PDF content:
* I personally had a different PDF reader (Foxit) installed
as my default. When Foxit was my default reader, PDF links refused
to open.
* I think this one is IE specific, but I've also seen it
where if I have a .PDF in the same folder and open that way, even
though the address is totally correct, the first time through, the
link fails. With the totally correct address showing in the address
bar. I simply refresh the page and bingo, the PDF shows! Go figure.
I really don't believe that this one is related to Captivate and
the way it calls the links. My gut tells me it's an IE thing. But I
have nothing to back me up on this.
I'm not sure what to say or suggest for the second link. I
tested it myself and it doesn't work, which tells me that either
the link is simply incorrect, or possibly it's located on an
intranet site.
Sincerely... Rick

Absolute links

I'm loading certain pages from my site to a third party vendor's site as html templates which visitors will access via the c-name.
They require absolute links throughout.
a) is there a preference or hack that makes all my links absolute in MUSE
b) is there an easy way to do this globally instead of find and replace?
thanks!

Hi Christopher,
At this stage this is not possible to force muse to generate absolute links. I will recommend that you use some script on-load that changes all the links to the absolute paths in stead of manual find and replace.

Dreamweaver CS3: Absolute links

Is there a way in Dreamweaver to change all relative links to absolute links site wide? (besides manually typing ../ all over the place)
Thank you!

The old site was: http://mysite.com/index_files/Page324.htm
The new site is: http://mysite.com/index.html
When I use an hcaccess file to redirect from any of the old links ( with a 404 error) to the new files set-up the browsers can't find the new images and css files unless I add "../" to the paths.
Does that make sense? I would love to hear a better solution!
I'm a little confused. Are all of the new files in the latter location? And are you saying when you have a line in the htaccess file that redirects from Page324.htm to http://www.mysite.com/index.html, the page is not able to find any of the images/css? And - why are you redirecting with a 404 - shouldn't it be a 301?

Absolute linking of .as instead of relatively linking

hi,
the project im working on is all database driven, there are no html files and all coding that is created is made by php then stored within a db to be called later on. now because of this i can't use relative links at all with anything i.e. images, videos and swf files.
so.....i am using swfobject to link to a swf file using absolute linking as shown in the coding below. but what i need to do now is link an .as file in my swf using absolute linking so i can call some arrays from the file.i have doubled checked to make sure my vars can be passed by local testing and it works but now i need it as absolute....is this possible?

i can understand that but i am not making this so it picks different .as files during run-time.
i have one .as that is set called gallery.as this is created by my php coding which creates the flash vars and then saves the .as file in the same directory as my swf file.
the swf file is set to include gallery.as so that there is no need to try and choose different files.
but as this is all run without the use of html pages because of the nature of the site everything is linked using absolute paths, i just need to get flash to do the same thing.
please find my attached zip file with all my current files so you can see what i have actually done.....if you open up the fla and preview it should load my images

Word 2013 - Links issue

I have a client who has a Word document which utilizes links. The links actually reference the document itself. Here is an example:
PARTY1 and PARTY2
Effectivedate
NAME LIVING TRUST
PARTY1 and PARTY2, Parties, or their successors in trust, under the NAME LIVING TRUST, dated Effectivedate, and any amendments thereto.
If the client changes the top PARTY1 or PARTY2 entry, it's supposed to automatically, or even manually, update the names in the paragraph. However, when trying to update, we receive error "Error! Not a valid link" within the paragraph.
The links are referencing the same document, not a second document, and they're pointing to something like "\\SERVER\SHARE\Document.docx." Also, this is happening in Word 2013. It seems like Word 2010 users do not have this issue. Also,
this used to work without issue for this user.
Here is what we have tried:
* Remove and reinstall Word.
* Reset all Word settings per http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822005.
* Tested on other computers.
If anyone has any other hints, I'd appreciate the feedback. Thanks!

It's not clear from your post how the party names relate to the linking field, or what kind of a link you're using.
Word has a range of fields that can link to external files, including INCLUDETEXT, HYPERLINK and LINK, each for different scenarios. Each of these can take additional variables to point to a marker (e.g. bookmark, cell reference) in the source file. All
of these links use absolute paths, so moving the source file to another location is liable to break the link.
If you're only referencing content within the document itself, as your post suggests, you don't need any of the above fields and could instead use just a simple bookmark & cross-reference (REF field) arrangement or, perhaps, a Style & STYLEREF field
arrangement. Neither of these fields takes a filename or path as one of its parameters, so issues related to changes in file locations and file access don't arise. A HYPERLINK field, too, can be used for links to bookmarks within a document, without the
need to include a file name/path. For further information on data replication within a document, see:

Overlapping images link issue

I seem to to be having an issue right now with a page that i'm developing. I have multiple images and elements overlapping, but the order in which they are loaded is not right.
http://www.rwsd.net/other_sites/ourvinyl/index.html
When I try to hover over the logo it only works around the audio image, but I want that to be behind the logo, as well as the search box.
Hope that made some sense, any help is appreciated, thank you.

Ok, first things first. Two errors need correcting. Your <title> tag is missing the ">" at the end of it. Next, your "header" div never appears to close anywhere on your document. Everything else is commented nicely and it appears that is a mismatch which could be causing some errors.
With regards to the link, it appears to work for me on the OV logo and for some reason just above and below the OurVinyl.com text. I looked at the "audio_banner.png" file and it appears to be utilizing its full width, so I'm not sure how you want that OV logo to end up behind the banner. If you have that image in Photoshop/Fireworks etc and could show us what your goal is that might help a little.
If the files are PNG, are you saving them with transparency? It might be better just to utilize the image as an image with a link and alternate text as opposed to the H1 with text and multiple background images. Or if you truly need to stack images you should be using absolute positioning with the z-index ( http://www.w3schools.com/Css/pr_pos_z-index.asp ) as opposed to layered background images because they you will be able to control the z-axis to properly layer images.

Autocomplete and linking issues with gchat on apple messages

So I'm having a couple related(ish) problems with apple messages and gchat/hangouts/whatever it's called these days and imessage on my laptop:
1) Gchat contacts sometimes do and sometimes don't autocomplete when i cmd+n for a new message and then start typing in the 'send to' field. this occurs irrespective of whether i try to start a jabber conversation via typing their email or via typing their name. I've noticed a couple of semi-consistent factors that seem to be impacting it, at least sometimes, but can't pinpoint anything entirely consistent:
     -It seems to be more problematic with contacts that I have their (google) email address on their contacts card in my icloud account on my actual computer/iphone (as opposed to not having them linked to a contact, and them being merely listed on my gchat friends list by virtue of being imported when i created the account)
     -It seems to be more problematic with buddies that i have had more recent contact with, so that their existing conversation is closer to the top of the messages window (and plus, even this isn't entirely consistent - sometimes it lets me type and find their jabber account even if i chatted yesterday and it's second or third on the list, other times it just returns no results in the address field, and other times (when they're a contact with email address as well as phone number) it only gives me their imessage account but their jabber doesn't show up and i have to go to my buddy list to find them)
Any thoughts? It's sometimes easier to just do cmd+n and type a friend's name even if i have an existing conversation with them relatively top to the close of the list, than manually finding them in the list or looking at the buddy list or using the search bar. cmd+n typically works at least with imessage conversations, and sometimes even with jabber accounts/gchat, so it doesn't seem like this is merely a feature that doesn't exist.
2) This might be less of a bug and more of a feature, but i'm wondering if there's a way to deactivate it. A lot of my friends have both imessages and gchat, and i have their google email and phone number on their contact card. in this case, apple messages, seemingly arbitrarily, alternates back and forth betweeen gchatting them and imessaging them in the same conversation. it doesn't always correspond to their away/available status on gchat, and even when it does correspond, i'd still prefer to be able to manually override to send an imessage even if they are available on gchat, I'd prefer to just have separate conversations going for imessage and gchat (because a lot of my friends just never look at one or the other depending on whether they are or arent near their computer, so i need to be able to control where the message goes). I do have a separate jabber conversation with John Smith from their imessage, but within the imessage conversation it still sometimes switches to jabber. It seems like this only happens for contacts that have both email and imessaage on their vcard, but i'd prefer not to delete the email address from their vcard just to resolve this issue, since the email address on contact comes in handy for purposes other than gchat. is there any workaround/way to disable this auto-switching between imessage and gchat accounts in the same conversation, while keeping contacts' email and phone number linked on their vcard?
3) Some, but not all, of my android friends show up as having imessage when i type their name to contact via gchat. sometimes it says imessages for their phone number, and sometimes instead for their gmail (or both). With respect to the issue when it happens in phone number form: i've checked their contact cards and their phone number is just listed as mobile (not iphone or anything, though i'm unsure if the category of phone number actually tells the phone whether they have imessage, or if it recognizes (in this case, incorrectly) on its own). Of course the imessage won't actually send, but it's pretty annoying (especially in light of the problem from #1). Is their any way to tell messages that this person doesn't have imessage so it stops saying they do?
Couldn't decide whether to post these separately or together, but since they may or may not be related i opted for the latter. sorry for the length. searched for all 3 and didn't find anything quite on point.

Hi,
Re 1)
If a Buddy (Google, AIM or Yahoo) is in the Buddy list as just the ID or Screen Name then broadly speaking they are not in your Contacts list.
As such they will not show a "Real Name".
However any Buddy can be added to the Contacts List even if you don't add a "Real Name"
This in itself can also cause issues as the Contacts app does not create what it sees as Duplicate cards.
i.e. you cannot create two cards with the name John Smith.
It is easier if the ID/Screen Name becomes the "Real Name".
I have three Macs
On each the My Card for myself reflects the Computer it is from and those Cards are synced on my iMac.
Some of the various Jabber and AIM Screen Names are linked to the particular computers.
That means if I type "ra" as the start of my Name in the "to" spot I get this:-
First is a national breakdown service for helping out with cars (as opposed to any other breakdown)
The next is a Buddy that I have hidden.
It lists Apple ID and telephone numbers that it thinks are iMessages compatible (it thinks all numbers are valid) liked to be G4 tower's card.
It continues listing AIM, Jabber, Yahoo and other iMessages accounts as well as the Bonjour contact details.
As you can see some at the bottom are IDs and Screen Names that are not associated with any of the Address Cards.
In these cases my name from part of the ID so "ra" picks then up.
As you can see you should get AIM, Jabber (Google), iMessages and Yahoo account indicated.
That should then lead to 2)
Once in the conversation you can use the "To" spot to change which ID you are calling and therefore effectively change which service you are using.
In this Pic I have chosen to call Myself (easy with multiple accounts)
My iMac My Card has no jabber account listed so you only see iMessages and AIM option listed.
I can "call" my main AIM name (ralphjohnsr) from the other three Accounts linked to this Card.
From your end it may look like a random switch but in fact is most likely from an incoming change by the Buddy/Contact.
You can make the change by using the "To" spot and a drop down
The centralised messages in the chat should tell you of Changes as will the ID in the text field before typing
Re 3)
It will depend on what their Apple ID is.
Some have had @mac.com names for a long time and linked them to MobileMe than more recently iCloud.
Some linked their @me.com names form MobileMe to iCloud at the Change.
Most recently iCloud IDs have been given @iCloud.com emails from the start.
However any email can be used as an Apple ID.
The pic above has my Apple ID partially hidden for that lower iMessages info across the center.
You may find that some people are using their Google ID as their Apple ID AND also using it as both the iMessages registered name and the Google ID in the Messages app.
Lets explain this another way.
When iChat 1 came out Apple joined the AIM service with it (it did AIM and Bonjour which was then called Rendezvous)
At that time Apple entered in to an agreement with AIM that any Apple Issued ID would be a valid AIM Screen Name.
At that time the Apple Service was .Mac and @mac.com IDs were being issued as paid for accounts, Trial Accounts and after while Lapsed paid for accounts.
These all worked as iChat/AIM Screen Names.
Then Apple changed to MobileMe and issued @me.com IDs
The trials only lated until you ended them and the IDs no longer worked in iChat after that as valid AIM Screen Names and nor did lapsed Paid For accounts.
More recently Apple have stopped a paid for Service and moved to iCloud.
At the change you could link Any Apple ID to iCloud and you got an @me.com ID from the iCloud server (it could be the same as the on MobileMe but did seem to be "separate").
Later these became @iCloud.com IDs (Some people have both under iCloud and in some cases linking @mac.com names to MobileMe @me.com accounts for email still continues).
To be clear you could link Any existing email ID to iCloud such as Google ID.
But broadly I am speaking of gaining various Apple Issued IDs over time that may or may not be linked to one account.
These Apple Issued IDs works as Valid AIM Screen Names in Messages. (the iCloud issued ones don't work in iChat 5 or earlier though).
I linked an external to Apple dial-up Email that has been my long time Apple ID to iCloud and got an @me.com ID at first and later an @icloud.com one as well.
I can use these two separately in Messages as Valid AIM names.
Someone using their Google ID as their Apple ID could use it as the iMessages registered Name AND as the GoogleTalk/Jabber entry as well.
This might explain why it looks like they are swapping about.
There can be one other explanation and that is dependent on where they are logged in.
Obviously a GoogleTalk user can log in to the Google web Mail page and use Talk there.
Although I don't use Google+ I presume there is a similar web page to chat from there.
This would limit them to being "On Google" rather than iMessages when they sent a messages to you.
Re GoogleTalk
Obviously Android is Google.
The Account settings at Google incudes the "products" you can link and use from your Account.
Previously with a Google Mail Account that included enabling "Talk" which then allowed you to chat from the Web Mail Page login (or your chosen Jabber able app)
Now Google use Google+ and this seems to give you automatic access to "Talk" to the extent it is no longer something you have to Activate.
I am wondering if using a Android phone is linked to having a Google+ account and that the phone number can be part of that ID set up (similar to iMessages and iPhone Numbers).
If it does it would then depend if the phone is linked to both the Number and the Google ID as to what they can login as in certain situations.
I am not sure I have covered everything but I think I have covered most things.
From what you post I am not sure that there is an issue or not although I have posted what is normal and expected I think there are some fringe things that are an issue.

WebI report on SAP Mobile BI for iOS that contains a chart with element linking issue

Hi gurus. I have the following issue:
I have element linking based filters on my chart # 1 to filter values on chart # 2. It worked fine on Ipad. And it worked fine on BI Launch Pad.
But after some time I check my webi report and it stopped working on IPAD.
Filters are not shown on the graph.
However it still works fine on BI LaunchPad
Have you faced this issue before?
Using: BI mobile 5.1.12
Before, example:
After some time, I opened sap mobile and it is not showing up the filter anymore
Now: We upgraded to SAP Bi Mobile 6.0.8.12 but issue persists.
Could you do the test?
Steps to reproduce:
Create a simple Webi report with a table.
Copy that table and paste it to the report.
Turn the original table into a column chart
Add element linking from the chart to table. (When user filters on the chart it should change the table as well)
Test that the element link works in BI LaunchPad.
Save the report to the Mobile category and test on iPad.
Open report on iPad
Tap chart bars. Yellow filters, that are supposed to show up, are not displayed.

Hi Erika,
Is this report element linking defined as 'All Objects' or 'Single Object' in Webi.
I ask this that report element linking on 'All Objects' is not supported yet. This support is expected to come in later releases.
However, if this is single object then it should be working. Can you verify this on latest app store build and confirm. If still it does not work for you, then please raise a support ticket for the same.
Regards,
Ashutosh
