Changing Link Properties

Hello! So I am trying to build a page with a CSS template from Project VII called Mercury, and am having a little difficulty (I'm new to this whole CSS business, since I'm actually migrating from iWeb!).
I have changed the text I've selected into a hyperlink, and now am trying to change the link color and underlining; I've discovered the Page Properties selection on the Modify dropdown menu, and that worked great! However, it also changed the look of all of the links on the page, which isn't exactly what I wanted. What should I do here?
Thanks a bunch!

Define a set of pseudo classes for all your link states in your CSS.  (.foo = whatever you name you wish to use.)
.foo a:link  {color: orange;}
.foo a:visited {color: red;}
.foo a:hover {color:green;}
.foo a:active,
.foo a:focus {color:yellow;}
HTML:
<a class="foo" href="some_link.html">Foo Link color</a>
<a href="some_link.html">Default Link color</a>

  • Changing link properties between tables

    Hello,
    Is it possible to change somehow properties for the links between tables?
    We have about 2000 reports and we should change most of the links, it would be very convenient to write short program to do this instead of destroying couple mouses and wrists etc...
    Currently we are using VB6 and RDC to work with reports but we are open for all ideas to solve this problem we have.
    Thanks in advance for any help!
    Timo

    Hi Timo,
    Unless you know exactly how all are going to change exactly it may be easier to hire a student to this for you.
    Here's a bit of code that should get you going, it's old but should work for you also. You'll need to know what fields are mapped etc... It actually adds the tables at runtime and what you'll want to do is get your existing tables and links and save the info in an array.
    Dim db As Database
    Set db = rep.Database
    Dim tables As ICRDatabaseTables
    Set tables = db.tables
    Dim desTable As ICRDatabaseTable
    Dim path As String
    Dim srcTable As ICRDatabaseTable
    Dim subloc As String
    ' Add a table.
    subloc = "Orders"
    Set srcTable = tables.Add(subloc, CRDTRecurringFile, "crdb_ODBC.DLL", "MS SQL Tsvanfps01", "nwind", "vantech", "vantech", subloc)
    ' Add a table.
    subloc = "Employees"
    Set desTable = tables.Add(subloc, CRDTRecurringFile, "crdb_ODBC.DLL", "MS SQL Tsvanfps01", "nwind", "vantech", "vantech", subloc)
    Dim links As ICRDatabaseLinks
    Set links = db.links
    Dim count As Long
    count = links.count
    Dim joinType As CRJoinType
    Dim lookType As CRLookUpType
    Dim pm As Boolean
    Dim indexInUse As Integer
    joinType = 5    ' set to Left Outer Join
    lookType = 2
    pm = False      ' used for Access tables
    indexInUse = 0  ' used for Access tables
    Dim vas As Variant
    Dim vbs As Variant
    vas = Array(2)  ' pointer to the field position in the source Table
    vbs = Array(0)  ' pointer to the field position in the destination Table
    Dim newdblink As ICRDatabaseLink
    Set newdblink = links.Add(srcTable, desTable, vas, vbs, joinType, lookType, pm, indexInUse)

  • Change link properties (Rename file name)

    Hi All,
    As usual, I am new to Acrobat Scripting, but I have a good knowledge in InDesign Scripting.
    I have project about changing the link attribute.
    What i want to do is, I have a book along with chapters, Now i want to rename all the chapter names. If i rename the file name then i want to change the pdf link also. The following code will work almost, but onething i want to rectify.
    var numLinks=0;
    var desFile='D:\\1.pdf';
    var b = this.getPageBox("Crop", 0);
    var l = this.getLinks(0, b);
    l[0].setAction("app.openDoc('" + desFile + "')", this);
    If you run this code using javascript, you get a link but the property is set as javascript. Here i want to set as open a file.
    If you know the solution, please reply.
    Sudar.

    Have you looked at the 'addLInk()' method in the Acrobat JS API?
    You could also look at using 'theGetURL()' or 'launchURL()' methods.

  • Div tags - changing link properties

    Hi,
    My page has two colors. In the top is the navigation and the
    links need to be white due to the dark background. I did not plan
    to use links in the body itself, but have been forced. The body
    color is #efe9d1 and my links need to be dark. I am trying to use a
    different style I named .bodylink to accomplish this. I have used a
    div tag, and I am having the following problems. On my design view
    of the page all my linked fonts are bold and white. When I view it
    in my browser the navigation fonts are not bold and the second link
    is correct. (note: in design view the body does not view correctly,
    but the navigation does)
    My script is attached.
    Please tell me what I am doing wrong.

  • Change link properties

    This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/contribute/cs/using/WS5b3ccc516d4fbf351e63e3d1180fba3730-7cd1. html

    Can you please share the screenshot of the error message thrown?
    Is this happening with all the pages and links or only with a particular link? If this is happening with all the pages and links try clearing the Contribute preferences once.
    Refer to http://blogs.adobe.com/contribute/2011/11/launch-contribute-freshly-by-deleting-preference s.html
    Note: Removing preference is like a fresh installation. You have to reconnect to the sites.

  • "Click To Change All Properties" Not Working In Dreamweaver CC For Padding/Margins

    Every time I try to use the "Click To Change All Properties" option in Dreamweaver CC (the chain link icon in the middle of the Magin/Padding box), it never seems to work. Nor does it use the CSS shorthand, it lists the top, bottom, left and right margins/padding separately no matter if I have the chain link icon connected or broken.  If I have it set to link all four sides, then enter a value into the top, nothing happens to the other sides. It's not until I enter a value in to the bottom that it auto fills in the other two sides. Anyone else having this issue?

    Thank you for your help. I think I figured out what I might have been doing wrong when setting the margins. I would first clickt the chain icon to join everything, then enter in a value in the Top box, but I wouldn't see the other boxes update with that same value, so I would immediately click the Bottom value box. Instead, if I just click on the inner white box, just outside of the perimeter of the chain icon, it updates all of the remaining values.
    The shorthand setting worked as well for the Padding/Margins. Thank you!

  • Different Link Properties within Page?

    How can you change the properties of different link within
    the same page? For example: the color of the link, look of the
    link, etc.
    Reason is that I have links behind two different back drops.
    How can I accomplish this? Thank you.

    No, I don't think that's a good suggestion. It will fail in
    IE, and it has
    an unnecessary use of custom classes.

  • CSS Link Properties

    i used the page properties to set the link properties on all
    of my pages. the pages appeared fine on my browser (safari) but on
    other browsers, my sidebar links have the link color. I've been
    reading other topics related to this and I somewhat understand
    changing the link properties using css to the specific div tags but
    I am running into trouble.
    I don't want my sidebar links to to have red boxes around
    them. Isn't it true you can override the css style in the
    <head> with an inline style in the html element?
    When I try to change these properties the effects either
    don't take place or the layout changes. I'm still fairly new to css
    and I understand what I must change but I am coming up short. would
    this be the code I would use so that they would not display red?
    <div class="sidebar1">#sidebar1 links go
    here#</div>
    CSS Document:
    .sidebar1 a:link { color: #FFFFFF; }
    .sidebar1 a:visited { color: #FFFFFF; }
    .sidebar1 a:hover { color: #FFFFFF; }
    .sidebar1 a:active { color: #FFFFFF; }

    > I don't want my sidebar links to to have red boxes
    around them. Isn't it
    > true
    > you can override the css style in the <head> with

    > element?
    Yes, but that may not be the most efficient way to do it, so
    it would be at
    the bottom of the alternative list.
    > would this be the code I would use so that they would
    not display red?
    It could be, but it will depend on what else you have on your
    page. At the
    least, you should shorten that code like this -
    .sidebar1 a { color:#FFF; }
    (which would apply to ALL links at all link states within
    div.sidebar1)
    Are you not seeing that have an effect?

  • Link Properties box

    In my office we noted that in version 8 of Acrobat you cannot keep your link properties box open while navigating to multiple links. Instead this box has to be closed before moving to the next link and/or bookmark. Unlike version 7 which does allow the link properties box to remain open. This feature in my organization is without a doubt amazingly helpful - and will unfortunately prevent us from updating the remaing stations to version 8.
    Is this an intended change to the product and/or have there been any patches made to resolve this? The problem my environment has with this change is it increases the work load by doubling the amount of mouse interaction needed to link and/or audit already created links to a PDF package.

    Thank you for your post. These forums are specific to the
    Acrobat.com website and its set of hosted services, and do not

    Hi Faeza,
    The steps you have followed seems to be correct. This issue used to happen in our environment also, but second j2ee restarts used to fix the issue.
    Few cross checks which you can perform
    Please download the par file from the server and check whether the changes are present in the par file.
    make sure that you have keyed in the right bundle file name.

  • My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties

    My ipod works in itunes but does not appear in "my computer" after I changed the properties.
    First off, I'm using Windows XP (and Mac SnowLeopard) Here's how it started. For some reason my ipod started showing up as a camera when I plugged it in. It works fine in itunes, though. But when I tried to access it from "my computer" it only
    showed me the one and only picture I had on my ipod. I deleted that picture hoping it would no longer show up as a camera. When it still did I right-clicked on it in "my computer" and selected "properties". Under "autoplay" I
    chose for it to 'not show up' or 'take no action' or some such deal when I plugged it in. I thought that would stop it from popping up the window that asks whether i want to 'open camera wizard' or 'open camera scanning' or 'open folder to view files' or 'take
    no action' , etc. But now it won't show up in "my computer" at all. I also have a Mac with SnowLeopard. When I plugged my ipod into it my ipod doesn't show up in "finder" either! So basically my problem is not a mechanical one with hardware
    or software; yht ipod still works fine in itunes. I just need to undo the change I made. I've searched all around my preferences, utilities, options, etc. It shows up on my "Device Manager" but not on "Disk Management".
    Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks.

    Hi,
    To show up in Windows Explorer, you can try placing the iPod into
    disk mode.
    Moreover, i recommend you to
    restore ipod to factory settings.
    If this issue still persists, locate to device manager, uninstall and reinstall USB Mass Storage Device driver.
    Here is an article you can refer to below:

  • Administrator cannot change printer properties on "Advanced" tab from "Devices and Printers" on Windows Server 2012 R2

    Hello, dear Colleagues.
    User with administrators rights cannot change printer properties on "Advanced" tab from "Devices and Printers" on Windows Server 2012 R2. 
    If to launch "Devices and Printers" on server, all printer properties on "Advanced" tab are inactive (see screen below). 
    But I can change it manually with "Print Management". Features become active.
    The main purpose - to uncheck "Enable advanced printing features"  with powershell
    scripts.
    $erroractionpreference = "continue"
    $colPrinters = Get-Wmiobject -Class win32_printer -computername print_server -Filter "Name like 'printer1' or Name like 'printer2' or Name like 'printer3' or Name like 'printer4' or Name like 'printer5' or Name like 'printer6'" # get printers on server and filter with names
    ForEach ($objPrinter in $colPrinters) { # get printer details from WMI
    If ($objPrinter.RawOnly -ne "True") { # check that Advanced printing fetaures is turned on
    Write-host $objPrinter.Name
    Write-Host $objPrinter.RawOnly
    $objPrinter.RawOnly = "True" # Untick and update the object in WMI
    $objPrinter.Put()

    Can you help me with that? Look like somethings with rights.
    Thank you.

    Hello, Alan
    Morris.
    Thanks for your reply.
    I've tried to runs PS Script both locally and remotely, previously running Powershell ISE as Administrator.
    I've noticed interesting thing - if to
    check "Enable advanced printing features"
    manually thru Print Management snap-in, script works fine. But, time to time after some manipulations on print server, this advanced feature returns to enabled state automatically by system, I think. In this case PS Script does not work. Next, if to disable
    feature manually again (thru Print Management snap-in),
    and enable manually again, PS Script will work. Very strange situation.
    Thanks.

  • How to change shape properties after having created one?

    Photoshop CC 2014 -- latest update as of October 06, 2014
    Windows 7
    How can I change a shapes properties after having created one.
    I have created a simple ellipse.
    When I drew the ellipse with the tool, I had the option for the fill color/style and stroke, etc.
    After I have created said ellipse, I wish to change its properties.
    I can use the Paint Bucket, gradient tool, etc for the fill, but is there way to get back to the original set of tools with which I created the ellipse in the first place?
    If I use Edit > Stroke... it adds a new stroke around the existing shape.
    If I use Edit > Fill... the entire layer is filled.
    There must surely be a way to reenter the tool set to edit an existing shape. No?
    Thanks,

    Hi everyone,
    Thanks for the helpful tips, advice, etc.
    I didn't explain myself very well--I apologize.
    However, with your tips I figured it out:
    When I create a rectangle or ellipse, I can later click on its layer and the Properties window appears with options to change their "Live Shape Properties."
    However, not so with the Polygon and Shape tools. With them, the Properties window shows only the Masks, but the Toolbar still shows some basic properties I can change.
    I was stymied by the above differences while working only on a Shape.
    I've attached two JPEG screenshots.
    I didn't need to change the actual shape, just the fill/stroke, etc.
    Later, I may wish to change the actual shape, but that appears to be done by simply creating something new.
    Thanks much!!

    I would suggest to use a listbox as control/indicator. Here elements can easily be disabled programmatically.
