Can't Remove Hyperlink

I have a number of text frames on a page. For some of them, the text they contain should be a hyperlink (to another site page); for the others, they should not be hyperlinks.
When I need to change text from being a hyperlink to not being one, I select the entire text and click the "x" to the right of the "Hyperlink" combo box in the toolbar. The text in the box changes to "Add or filter links". However, when I republish the site the link is still there. If I go back to selecting the text in question (i.e. the text which needs to be changed to no hyperlink) I sometimes see vestiges of the old link in the Hypertext combo box, sometimes I'll see it if I click somewhere in the text, sometimes I won't. Regardless, no matter how many times I select the text and click the "x", the hyperlink remains when the site is published.
As a test, I deleted the text frame and the text it contains, added a new frame in the same place and the hyperlink was gone. However, I have a lot of text frames, precisely placed, and I don't want to have to do this multiple times. Besides, I'm not certain that if I make a hyperlink I'll be able to remove it in the future.
Has anyone else seen this kind of behavior?

Thanks in advance.

Vinayak: Well, your suggestion helped finally resolve the issue but there are still aspects of it I'm not comfortable with (not your fault, of course). For example, even after I selected the hyperlinked text and cleared the hyperlink reference, I could still click various points in the text with the text tool and the hyperlink reference would reappear.
Regardless, yes, the textbox WAS linked, I selected it and cleared the hyperlink reference; however, the underlining of the text still appeared when I previewed the page (although the "hand" didn't materialize, indicating the hyperlink was removed). I had to manually go into the States panel and clear the Rollover formatting. Once I did those things (selected the textframe, cleared the hyperlink reference, cleared the "Rollover" formatting in the States panel), things previewed fine. I'm not going to go back in and click the text to see if the hyperlink reference reappears, I don't care at this point.
Thanks for your help.

How can we remove a specific hyperlink using Acrobat X Pro ?

How can we remove a specific hyperlink using Acrobat X Pro ?

If the link is a real annotation in the file, just switch to the link tool in Acrobat, select it and press Delete.
The Acrobat Family will, by default, scan all the text in a PDF file and temporarily make any URL or email address into a hotlink. You cannot stop that from happening as it's a preference on the client side; the only solution would be to break the pattern by adding a hairline space next to the colon or the @ symbol.

How to remove hyperlink in Reports Region

How to remove hyperlink in a Report region (Based on some filter condition)
Example : In Report Region, I am getting value as 10, 20, 30, 0, 44, 55, 0
In the above value, I need to remove the hyperlink for 0 values.
Can anyone help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.

If you want a link column for values other than 0 and a blank for those with 0 then the best way to do this is to use a case or a decode to return a LINK image or text to a hidden column; I usually return the Edit icon only. You can then use the 'column link' region on a different column to create a link in the usual way and set the Link Text to the hidden column (e.g. #EDIT# in the example below). If you have set the target page to require a Checksum this will then be added without having to code it into your sql. E.g.
SELECT some_columns,
CASE WHEN numcol != 0 THEN '<img src="#IMAGE_PREFIX#e2.gif" alt="">'
ELSE null
END "EDIT"
FROM your_tableIf you want the same column value, but those of 0 to not have a link and those other than 0 to have a link then you need to code the link into your sql. e.g.
SELECT some_columns,
DECODE (numcol,0,numcol,'<a href="f?p=&APP_ID.:11:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:11::">'||numcol||'</a>') "EDIT"
FROM your_table# = your URL e.g f?p=&APP_ID.:11:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:11::
If you require a checksum on the link you need to add the apex_util.prepare_url function to the URL.

How do you remove hyperlinks?

has "Numbers" received an update recently? maybe I missed it. but i can no longer remove hyperlinks from a cell.
I still want the URL there -- but in plain text format -- but i don't want a working hyperlink. I used to be able to left-click on the cell and a little box came up, where you could amend the text, and remove the link -- nice and easy.
But when you click on the link now, all it does is open up Safari and takes you straight to the page
I've highlighted the cell, the text, and searched through all the menus, but there doesn't seem to be any way to remove the hyperlink. All you can do is type the whole thing out again, which can take ages when you've got a long URL
anyone got any ideas?

PS. Under OS X 10.9, you need to change the ruby interpreter at the beginning of main.rb from:
#!/usr/bin/ruby
to:
#!/System/Library/Frameworks/Ruby.framework/Versions/1.8/usr/bin/ruby
For convenience, here I post the entire revised codes, which can be used under OSX 10.5 through 10.9.

Remove Hyperlink

I have a form that has an email address in the text field. I do not want the hyperlink to work. I right clicked on the text and selecting Remove Hyperlink and this did not work.
This works only if I remove the email wording before the URL address. For example: "You may contact us at 555-123-4567 or email: [email protected]

This is a setting in the users version of Reader (under Edit ... Preferences ... General ... "Create links from URLs).
We can't update this setting so I don't think you can do any better than the solution you have come up with.
The insert hyperlink option in Designer allows you to create a hyperlink out of any text.

I assume you're using GMail as your primary e-mail account? Try this. This is how I am setup. Not only will it move all your contacts to your phone but any changes made in GMail or on the iPhone will be sync'd with the server.
http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138740
Note... I think this will delete your existing contacts from your device. You will want to use iTunes to back them up and get them imported into GMail before you sync your device wtih GMail.

Hello Mudassar,
In SQL Server / T-SQL we don't have a native JSON support, so you would have to implement a solution on your own = parsing the string and remove the "Key" + it's value.

How can i remove a card from iTunes ?

How can i remove a card from iTunes ?

If you want to remove a credit/debit card from your account then on your computer's iTunes you should be able to edit your payment info by going into the Store > View Account menu option and logging into your account, and on your account's details page there should be a payment link. If you are doing it on your iOS device then tap on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and tap on 'View Apple ID' on the popup and log into your account - that should also give you a payments link on your account's page.
Changing payment info : Change or remove your payment information from your iTunes Store account (Apple ID)
If you don't get the 'none' option on the payment details screen : Why can’t I select None when I edit my Apple ID payment information?
