Can I use an Image Map to link to an SLP

I am working on a project starting with the Desktop Catalog with Homepage layout, and have created 4 additional generic SLPs. I added an image to the homepage slp and would like to use an image map to link to the 4 generic slps that I created. But I get an error when running the site and clicking on any of the image map links. Clicking on the link opens a new window with a "This program cannot display the webpage". At times I have gotten a script error when clicking the link rather than the This program... message, but I cant seem to replicate that at the moment.
I am able to do a simple hyperlink on the image to an slp, but this, of course, only gives me the ability to link to one of my additional pages....
Any ideas?

I did finally figure this out... it is possible to map to an slp file from an image map... the trick has to do with how slp files work in RH,and makes sense, sort of, once I got it to work. When you generate html5, htm files are generated fromthe slps.
When you link to an slp file in a regular hyperlink, during the generation of the site, RH translates the slp refernce to the htm file reference that is generated from the slp. But for some reason, i.e., a bug IMHO, with an image map, when you link to an slp file, RH does not convert this slp reference to the .htm reference (as it does with normal, non-image map hyperlinks.
So the way to get this to work, is when you create the image map link, put in the htm file name that will be created during generation.

Can a down-level stage use an image map?

Just wondering if I can make a part of my down-level static image clickable using an image map?

Can you create an image map that will link to a different element on the same page?

I have used image maps before and know how to create an image map to link to a new page. In this case, however, I want to be able to click on my image using an image map and load a new image with text on the same page as the image map. Is this even possible? Is there some sort of behavior that allows you to create same-page links, perhaps using AP divs? I want the end result to be a type of gallery that loads different images depending on where you click on the main image.
Again, I don't even know if this is possible. Any suggestions on how to make this work would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you!

Go to this site and mouse over the image map of South America.

Is that what you are looking for?
Insofar as linking to a position on the same page, do a Help search (F1) in DW for "named anchors."

I can't see my image map

I made an image map that I need to edit. For some reason when I take live view off the image disappears, and without being able to see it I can't edit the image map. Is there a way in cs6 to do this? Why can't I see the image??
http://granthoneymoon.com/faith_boosters.html is the sample site with the image map.

You can fix your file names in DW from the Files window. When you change the name there to replace spaces with hyphens or underscores, DW will ask if you'd like it to automatically update the links. Hit "yes" it saves a lot of find & replace time.
Generally speaking it's best to use all lowercase alpha numeric names, avoid any special characters like $%& and use hyphens or underscores instead of spaces for all of your web files/folders.
Lowercase: Because many servers are case sensitive so AboutMe.html is a separate file from aboutme.html. On your local OS, a link to the uppercase version will give you the lower case page, on the server it will throw a 404 File Not Found error in most cases.
Special Characters: Many special characters have special meaning in html, css, javascript or other coding languages used online. Throwing one in your file names can cause scripts to malfunction, among other problems.
Spaces: As Nancy mentioned, it's invalid and can cause broken links in certain browsers. IIRC, FireFox is especially susceptible to spaces causing broken links.

I'm new to Dreamweaver... first site design with css. I love it. Doing okay but have run into two obstacles I'm just not adept enough to over come.
Site Name: twangtowntv.com
#1) I think I have screwed up my main page template. Not sure how to fix that so that I can have repeating elements throughout the site update simultaneously once again. Is there any way to rebuild that page and then reapply the page attributes to my existing site pages?
#2) I've used image maps and have linked photos to websites many times. But, for the the life of me, I can't make it happen with the images in my right sidebar. Nothing seems to work. I image map them, link them... but nothing... no hyperlinking action! Right now I have added to each page as part of a Library item. Thought that might open the flood gate. Still... nothing. ANY IDEAS of what I might try will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks... Tim

Have you fixed this, because when I hover over any of the picture links on the right, they point to a new page or go to a different link.
if you are using a template, not sure why you would need to use a library item in the left sidebar, if the links are all going to be the same on every child page??
You can repair the master template page, and have the changes reflect on the child pages, but you'd need to make sure that all the editable regions were the same, otherwise, the child pages won't know where to create any of the new regions and could end up with a mess.

How can I use an image as a folder background on icon

vista updated firefox - how can I use an image as a folder background for an icon of that folder (for desktop)

This is not a Firefox related issue or Firefox setting etc. This is a windows or OS setting, I provided the link below on how to change this in Windows Vista.

Can LSMW use customer specific mapping program?

Can LSMW use customer specific mapping program?
I have created a LSMW project to migrate various objects (Material, pricing conditions, conditions) for our new division. I want to add another object Purchasing Info records. We already have a customer specific mapping program that prepares the data for SXDB to complete the migration. After creating the new object in LSMW, I looked in step 1 (Maintain object attributes) but couldnt see anywhere convenient to put the program name.
I know that LSMW provides a mapping facility of its own, but can I avoid reinventing the wheel and instead own specific program?
Slath

Hi,
I am afraid, that is not possible. It is possible to create your own BDC recording but not the way you want to do. LSMW needs to know your source and target structures and then you do the mapping from source to target within LSMW. It stores this mapping information in several tables and unless LSMW has those entries, it will not be able to generate the mapping(conversion) program. Also, LSMW creates a 'read' file and later a 'converted' file. Your mapping program may not be doing that, which means LSMW cannot execute it in later steps to actually create the Purchase Info Records.
You will have to create your own BI or DI program or a business object and a BAPI, or an IDOC type and message type and then publish it to standard SAP, then may be it will be possible. But that will be lot of work, instead use the standard one availble to you.
If you want to use your existing code then, when you get to the mapping part of it, just cut and paste the logic specific to each field in the appropriate place, or don't do any individual field mapping, but just paste all the mapping logic in the ENDOF_RECORD_ section.

Can I use an image as link to a specific page?

Building a chapter opening spread that includes a number of images, each from one section in that chapter. Want to use the images to navigate directly to that section by tapping on it, if possible. I'm guessing I can create a text box ontop of the photo that then hot links to a bookmark on the target page, but would prefer to simply be able to hotlink images. Any other ideas? Thanks.

Hey Juan,
If you get to the point in my instructions where you have the text selected and you Enable as hyperlink, you will need to set the "Link To" option to bookmark or figure and then choose which bookmark or figure you wish to link to. You may not have any of these items defined yet. If that's the case nothing will show in the list.
If you place an image on another page, select it, go to the Widget tab in the Inspector and select the Title option. You can then assign a label to the image (Diagram, Figure, Image, etc). Once you have a label assigned to your image, it will apear in the list of linkable objects when you set your hyperlink.
Good luck.

Hi I'm trying to find a simple bit of freeware that I can use to image map for creating hotspots on a website. Any ideas?

Hi
I'm wanting to create a pretty complicated image map for a web page so it'll be lot's of polygons. Does anyone know of a good bit of freeware I can use that will help me work out the coordinates for the image maps?
Thanks
Neil

You could do this in any text or html editor.t I imaging you want a click and drag capability when selecting the areas of the image map. Try looking at some of these. https://www.google.com/search?q=image+map+create+apple+mac

Can you use an image button to load a CFWINDOW?

Is it possible to use an image to open a cfwindow instead of
a regular button input type?

All I had to do was to use a regular link instead of using
the input tag. This is because the OnClick event can be used in a
input that has a type of button and on regular "<a href..."
links. However, you cannot use the onClick when you have an input
type of image.

Can I use each image in a photogrid as a hyperlink?

Hi!
I downloaded an Aperture folder onto an iWeb photos page and the photos are now in a photo grid. Can I use each individual photo as a hyperlink to another page? Ultimately what I want is to be able to click on each photo individually and have it be enlarged (via a link to another web page where I have downloaded the image a second time in large). Is there an easier way to do this? The only thing I could come up with is to do this tedious hyperlink/photo grid process, but iWeb is not letting me hyperlink with the individual photos in the photo grid.
Any ideas or ways to get around this? Thanks in advance for your time!!

If you have a lot of photos putting each one in its own page might create a large site. You might consider uploading your larger versions to your iDisk and then, as Wyodor suggested, link a small version of each photo on a regular page to the large version to be opened in a separate window. See the small *stamp image* in the middle of this demo page as an example. You can set the size of the large photo to what ever you'd like so that if will fill up the window. Getting back to your original page would be by closing the new window. Although not as elegant as a separate page for each photo it might be quicker to create.

How can you use one image and edit it three different ways to export later?

I am a new Lightroom 3 user. How can use the same image and edit it multiple ways to produce mulitple images to later export? For example, I have a picture of a bride and groom. I want to use that image and create a color image, a black and white image, and a close up of their hands.

Do I need to do either of those options before I start editing the image at all? For example, what if I am working on the image and doing some creative edits. Then I think of another option that I could do. Is it too late at that time or can I still get the original image to begin with?
