Can't create hyperlink with animated gifs

Hi,
For some reason, animated gifs won't hyperlink - everything else does fine, why?
Thx,

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Put a 1% opaque object over the gif and set the link to it. Make sure the object has no color file, no border or other features except 1% opacity. Make it slightly larger than the gif and bring it forward on top of it.

  • Can't create hyperlink with FTP:// URL

    I am unable to create hyperlinks within iWeb 1.1.1 to anything other than http:// URLs. I am trying to create a link that points to an external ftp server in the form of:
    ftp://ftp.tattercoats.com
    It appears that the only URLs recognized and/or accepted by iWed are http:// URLs -- which is pretty limiting considering that there are ftp:// ftps:// and https:// sites out there.
    How do I accomplish this?
    Thanks!! Erik

    Welcome to the discussions, Erik.
    Those other URL's are not allowed within iWeb. You CAN edit the html after publishing, though, to add them.

  • How can I create Hyperlinks with a Fixed-Ratio EPUB?

    I am using InDesign 2014's fixed ratio epub exporter. It looks great but all my hyperlinks are lost and I can't find any resources on how to maintain them or to recreate them in a reader program, if possible. Any help much appreciated?

    Are the hyperlinks you want to make supposed to go to specific pages of the document, or to a url.
    If it's to go to pages of the document, then click the Create Bookmarks when creating the TOC, it's in the bottom left, you may need to Show Options in the TOC dialog box.
    If it's for a URL, or to link to a different page other than what the TOC points to, then you can
    New Hyperlink Destination
    Choose URL/Page
    Insert a unique name
    Insert the url/page no.
    Then say ok
    Go to Hyperlink Options
    Type: URL
    Name: Choose the unique name you've created
    URL: it should show up as what you've put in the Name, if not just type it in
    similar for page no.
    Remember to inlcude bookmarks and hyperlinks when creating the PDF too.

  • Attaching hyperlink to animated gifs

    Has anyone been successful with attaching a hyperlink to an animated gif? I'm new to all this and I'm not even sure if this is possible (but it seems reasonable to me). I can drag and drop the animated gif into iWeb, but then the option to make it a hyperlink is not available.

    I'm having the same problem. I've tried converting a standard animated gif into a .swf file via GraphicConverter and inserting the .swf into iWeb. But that doesn't work. Also, iWeb adds the QT controller to the bottom of the image, which I don't want to see. Does anybody know how to turn that off too?
    Thanks.

  • Problem with animated .gif

    I have a problem with animated gifs. So if I set a animated gif as background and a button is over it as in the example below, then everytime the animation goes on the button disappears until I go over it with the mouse. So what can I do to solve this?
    import java.awt.Color;
    import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
    import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
    import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
    import javax.swing.JButton;
    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JLabel;
    public class FrameBackImage {
              public static void main(String args []){
                   final JFrame frame = new JFrame("Frame");
                   frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
                   frame.setSize(400, 400);
                   frame.setResizable(false);
                   frame.setLayout(null);
                   java.net.URL imageURL = ImageApp.class.getResource("animatedw.gif");
                   ImageIcon imageIcon = new ImageIcon(imageURL);
                 final JLabel label = new JLabel(imageIcon);
                 label.setBounds(0,0 , 400, 400);
                 frame.getLayeredPane().add(label);
                 JButton button = new JButton ("Exit");
                 button.setBounds(200, 129, 60, 60);
                 button.setBackground(Color.black);
                 button.setForeground(Color.white);
                 frame.add(button);
                 button.addActionListener(
                 new ActionListener(){
                        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
                             System.exit(0);
                 frame.validate();
                  frame.setVisible(true);
    }

    In the future, Swing related questions should be posted in the Swing forum.
    Your usage of the getLayeredPane() method is something I've never seen before, so I don't know if thats the problem or not.
    How to display a "background image" is asked all the time in the Swing forum. So to familiarize yourself with the forum you can try searching the Swing forum. Using the keywords I highlighted would be a good place to start.

  • Help with animated gif messages

    I can't seem to get animated GIFS with music as a SMS or a MMS to play. They are sent from people with phones like the Razor, LG, Envy etc. on the same network as mine ( Verizon ). When I get the message it will show the GIF for about 1 second then it dissapears, then the music plays. It will also give me the option to open the attachments or slides but the GIFS don't open . I can get Video messages from anyone and the videos plays fine. In the past when I opened one of these messages it would kill the audio on my phone and I would have to do a hard reboot for my phone to work even though I could still receive SMS and MMS messages, just the audio on the phone died. I was told the new OS 4.5 would correct this. The only thing it fixed was now if I get a animated GIF message it still does not play but my phone does work and I don't have to reboot. Is there a setting I need to change or is this not supported? I have 2 Curves 8330 OS 4.5.0.77 BIS on Verizon with the unlimted BB plan.
    Thanks,
    Leo

    I am trying to create a simple animated gif in Photoshop. I've set up my frames and want to use the tween to make the transitions less jerky. When I tween between frame 1 and frame 2 the object in frame two goes out of position, appearing in a different place than where it is on frame 2. Confused!

    Hi Melissa - thanks for your interest. Here's the first frame, the second frame and the tween frame. I don't understand why the tween is changing the position of the object in frame 2, was expecting it to just fade from one frame to the next.

  • Why i can't create PDF with right format by LiveCycle?

    Hello,
    As we know that PDF format has four sections, the header, object body, cross-reference table and trailer.
    But after I create a PDF by Adobe LiveCycle, and open it by UltraEdit or Notepad, I cannot find the cross-reference table and some objects, “trailer” word either .
    I try to download several PDF files by follow link:
    https://my.adobeconnect.com/_a295153/p10077996/?launcher=false&fcsContent=true&pbMode=norm al ,
    and open them as the same way as before, it was the normal format I learn.
    So, why my PDF is not the right format? And how can I create PDF with right format?
    Thank you a lot!
    Ellie

    Adobe LiveCycle Designer makes XFA forms - a thin PDF wrapper around XML, no useful PDF page objects. Still, they are valid PDF. Like any PDF, you might not find a trailer or xref if a cross reference stream is used. See ISO 3200-1 7.5.8 "Cross-Reference Streams".

  • How can i create messenger with java tv API on STB

    deal all.
    how can i create messenger with java tv API on STB.
    how can Xlets communicate each other?
    how?
    i am interested in xlet communications with java tv.
    is it impossible or not?
    help all..

    You can create a messenger-style application using JavaTV fairly easily. JavaTV supports standard java.net, and so any IP-based connection is pretty easy to do. The hard part of the application will be text input, but people have been using cellphone keypads to send SMS messages for long enough that they're familiar with doing this. This doesn't work well for long messages, where you really need a decent keyboard, but for short SMS-type messages it's acceptable.
    The biggest problem that you need to work around is the return channel. Many receivers only have a dial-up connection, ties up the phone line and potentially costs people money if they don't get free local calls. Always-on return channels (e.g. ADSL or cable modem) are still pretty uncommon, so it's something that you nee to think about. Of course, if you do have an always-on connection then this problem just goes away.
    This is really one of those cases that's technically do-able, but the infrastructure may not be there to give users a good experience.
