Clickable hypertext links in Edge

Hi,
Is it possible to have clickable hypertext links within a text element in Adobe Edge ?  I have a layout where a sidebar with text comes in as an overlay as animation completes.  When I try to code in a text link in a text element, the HTML shows up, and I cannot seem to find any info on how to incorporate actual hypertext links within a text element, or if this is even possible.
If this *is* possible, a second question is:
is it possible to have dynamically-generated clickable text (ie a PHP query to pull a list of links to recent Wordpress posts) into an Edge animation?  I have a feeling this is more complicated than it would be worth at this point, but hey, it's worth a shot.
Thanks,
Colin

Hi there,
In answer to your first question, it is possible to do this in Animate using jQuery. Let's say you had a text element named "Text" (sans-quotes) in your main timeline. Add this code to your Stage compositionReady event:
sym.$("Text").html('<a href="http://html.adobe.com" target="_blank">Adobe & HTML</a>');
And that will render in the browser as a hypertext link.

Joe

  • IWeb hypertext links to pages from my site not "viewable" in some browsers

    I am new to iWeb 08. iWeb created hypertext links to eleven pages from my "top level" site are not "clickable" or viewable in some browsers yet the hyperlinks I added on top page to other sites don't present a problem.
    No problem with Safari or AOL Desktop Version 1.2 or Firefox browsers. However, AOL Ver 10.3.7 (rev 4136.310) only shows other site links and NOT the page links at the top of site page. Only a dot is visible where links to other pages in the site. I thought it could have been a Java Scripts problem so I updated my AOL to latest JAVA. Not concerned for my part but others with Mac AOL may have same problem.
    Is there something I could do diferent at my site or is this another AOL shortcoming?
    See: http://web.mac.com/louiedea/OceanaMed_Cruise_2008/MedCruise08.html
    Thanks, LouieDeA

    Gayle,
    No solution yet. I am sure it is a shortcoming of AOL's Mac browser but am trying to contact AOL support (difficult now that they are free). I don't use their browser but there are probably those that do. I presume you don't have that problem when you use Safari, etc?

  • Hypertext links with graphics

    Hi,
    I am using FM9 and RH8 (TCS 2.5).
    I would like to use graphics for navigation between help topics and have inserted the graphic, text frame and hypertext link into the FM document as described in the documentation. The graphic shows in the help file (tried HTML Help and Webhelp) but the link does not work. Hypertext links with text only are ok.
    I already tried various combinations of the size of the anchored frame and the text frame but can't get it to work.
    Does anyone have some advice? Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    Monica

    Just above the textarea that you use to enter the message text on the "Compose New Mail page" there is usually a button bar with buttons to add text formatting like Bold and Italic.<br />
    That toolbar may also have a button to turn a text link into a clickable hyperlink (look for a chain like button).<br />
    You can select the text and click that button to turn the link into a clickable hyperlink.<br />
    If you can't find the button then hover them all to check the tooltip of each (e.g. Insert hyperlink).<br />

  • Is there a way to open a hypertext link in my folio?

    Hi! i have a question:
    Is there a way to open a hypertext link in my folio with java script commands inside an HTML content of my magazine,
    so that it uses the browser of the folio, rather than forcing me to leave the app and use an external browser?
    Thanks

    No - you would have to rebuild the site in iWeb '06.
    Even if you did this you couldn't update the site built with iWeb '08.
    You need to install iLife '08 on the other computer - why can't you?

    click inside the hyperlink and open Window > Hyperlinks (in InCopy). The link is highlighted there. If you can't see it in the editable field, double-click the highlighted entry and it'll open in a dialog box.

  • Some hypertext links broken in generated PDF

    Hi all,
    I'm using FM 8.0p277 to generate a PDF of a book which uses hypertext TOC links to different chapters and topics. We've been using the same process for some time without any problems:
    Generate TOC -> Print book to .ps -> run Distiller.
    However, recently some of the hypertext links have ceased to work, seemingly at random.
    Sample marker text from a nonfunctional link: openObjectId 01 PP System Theory of Op.fm:2 699335
    Sample marker text from a functional link: openObjectId 02 PP Intro & Sys Rqts.fm:2 683648
    The broken links are not isolated to a certain paragraph style or even to a specific book.
    Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I'm really at a loss.

    Arnis Gubins
    Thank you very much; the broken links were pointing to markers I'd removed during the release process instead of where I thought they were supposed to be pointing. I think it was a PEBKAC issue, but I never would have noticed if you hadn't mentioned checking the link properties.
    I regenerated the PDF after fixing the markers in FM and everything seems to be working fine.
    Thanks again!

  • How to: Save as PDF AND preserve Word bookmarks/hypertext links

    Is there a way to save a word doc as PDF in OS 10.4 that enables the hypertext links in the PDF file? When I save, i just get blue underlined text in the PDF but it cannot be clicked on to follow the links embedded in the original Word doc.
    thanks for any solutions/workarounds.

    I wonder if this is actually a limitation of Preview... I've made PDF files with Illustrator that, when I open them in Acrobat have active links. The links don't work when I open the same file with Preview.

  • Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?

    Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?
    Depending on the system version, and Office Word version:
    - a pure URL link starting with http or even www sometimes works in PDF, either produced by Aperçu or Adobe, sometimes does not work;
    - other kind of links where the text under display is not a URL, never work!
    I like everything with Apple computers and software, except PDF generation. Output files are usually bigger in size, and no better quality, than under Windows. Furthermore, it is weird that something as common as hyperlinks does not work correctly!
    I related this question with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, but the problem is still there with Mac OS Lion.
    This problem seems to have been around for years, without any proper solution from Apple and/or Adobe! To me, this is very embarrassing!

    Greetings NoNameGiven,
    If I understand the problem correctly (I’m not sure I do) you would prefer ‘iii’ to be read as “eye eye eye” rather than “three”? The alt text property is the only way that I know of to make this happen. Hope this helps.

  • Hypertext link from a Result

    Can part of a Result be configured as a hypertext link? For example, could a click on a column of a table go to cnn.com?
    As far as I can tell, the closest general support for this navigates from a Result to a Dashboard, which contains a hypertext link. This isn't satisfactory because it requires two clicks and an intermediate page load to reach the destination.
    (Curiously, the Oracle Business Intelligence Answers, Delivers, and Interactive
    Dashboards User Guide claims that Gauges support navigation to web sites: "To allow navigation to multiple saved requests, dashboards or Web sites ...".)
    What workarounds are recommended?
    One possibility occurs to me: Include a hypertext link in a text field in the data; this would support a link from the text box of the data, but not elsewhere, and it would require mangling the data.
    BR
    A

    Try this:
    1) Create a "dummy" column. In the Edit Formula button, enter this: CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN TableName.ColumnName ELSE 'www.cnn.com' END
    2) Override the data format with "Hypertext Link (prepend http://)" option.
    3) Go to Results. Now the column displays www.cnn.com and when clicked, takes you to the site.
    OR, if you wish your data to be a link to the site (not data dependent), do this:
    1) Override the data format to "Hypertext Link (prepend http://)" option.
    2) Switch to Custom Text Format. (The reason for this an the previous step is to make the text in the Hypertext Link (prepend http://) editable.
    3) Edit what you see to this: "http://"@[html]"(a href="http://"www.cnn.com"")"@"(/a)" (Changed the angle brackets so it displays...)
    4) Go to Results. Now the data in the column displays but they become hyperlinks to the cnn site.

    Hello,
    Could anyone tell me how to create a pdf with the hypertext link from word or power point ?

    Hi Adriana,
    I stay away from Firefox for this very reason. It doesn't seem to show things as well as IE. I don't know if this is because I am missing some plugins, but have you tried using IE.
    Possible solution:
    It seems that Firefox >1.5 needs to have its security settings changed, using a user.js file, before it will activate links to files. Chrome has similar drawbacks. This browser requires a plugin installed before links to files work properly (see https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/jllpkdkcdjndhggodimiphkghogcpida)
    I have also seen the Allow / Block message. It isn't there all the time, but I suspect it has something to do with access rights to the drive / directory / folder where the PDF is stored. I have learned to just live with this.
    Note, it is important that you use the correct number of slashes. Previously, Firefox (<1.5) required 5 forward slashes in the link path.

  • Hypertext link in email opens my previous version of Firefox, not the one I upgraded to.

    Greetings, each time I upgrade to the newest version of Firefox I'm running into this problem. If I open the browser directly, it opens the newest version. If I click a hypertext link in my email, it opens my previous version and I get a message saying I need to upgrade. How do I fix this?

    I also had this problem. After the hint from jsher2000 above, I checked the add-ons.
    It's still called "AVG Safe Search" in the Add-ons Manager in Firefox. (Either under Tools/Add-ons or under the orange "Firefox": Add-ons (Or Ctrl-shift A)
    I found AVG Safe Search disabled in my list of add ons, and enabled it.
    Voila, the icons now appeared in the searches!

  • FM10/Acrobat X hypertext link problems

    Hi All,
    I just upgraded from FM7 to FM10 (10.0.2.419 version), and Acrobat 6 to Acrobat X, and found that the hypertext links (which worked well in Acrobat6) within the same book are broken in Acrobat X. However, the cross-book hyperlinks work well in Acrobat6 and Acrobat X.
    I have 3 book files which contains cross-book hyperlinks and hypertext links within the same book. The book structure is as follows:
    ../book1/A.book
    ../book1/chapter1.fm 
    ../book1/chapter2.fm
    ../book1/chapter3.fm
    ../book2/B.book
    ../book2/chapter1.fm
    ../book2/chapter2.fm
    ../book3/C.book
    ../book3/chapter1.fm
    ../book3/chapter2.fm
    ../book3/chapter3.fm
    All hyperlinks are linked with hypertext markers (newlink and gotolink in 'Special -> Hypertext'). The converted PDFs are placed in the same folder.
    The cross-book hyperlink works fine. My story is:
    book1 has cross-book hyperlinks to book2 and book3. To add a hyperlink from "book1's chapter1" to "book2's marker1", I add 'gotolink ../book2/chapter2.fm:marker1' in file ../book1/chapter1.fm.
    When converting these 3 books to pdf files, I'll open all book files, and print book to ps file one by one. After that, I'll use Acrobat Distiller (Acrobat X) to generate pdf files.
    The cross-book hyperlink 'gotolink ../book2/chapter2.fm:marker1' will be converted, the target filename will be 'book2.pdf', and the destination name will be 'M8.8.newlink.marker1'.
    The hypertext link within the same book is broken. The scenario is:
    In book1, I want to add a hyperlink from chapter3 to chapter1, so I insert the hypertext marker 'gotolink chapter1.fm:marker2' in file chapter3.fm. After the conversion, the target filename becomes 'chapter1.pdf' (it should be 'book1.pdf'), and the destination name becomes 'M5.8.newlink.marker2' (it should be 'M8.newlink.marker2').
    Am I missing something for the hyperlink above? Any thoughts?
    Regards,
    Maggie Yeong

    I think I am having the same problem and I suppose the issue is a matter of semantics and familiarity with linking in general. What I have is a PDF document with web links of the format that Kim describes, but my problem is that this format only appears to work for external links. So I need to ask what should kind of linking is suitable to internal references. For example, "<a href="Documentation/IO.OS 2.1.3 Technical Overview.pdf#nameddest=alarm&zoom=40">Tech Doc</a>" seems to work for me on a browser viewed PDF document only if "IO.OS 2.1.3 Technical Overview.pdf" is not the document containing the link. In other words named destinations do not seem to be the correct linking method for internal links in HTTP served documents. Perhaps the problem is the browser which is fix by workplace standards at IE7?

  • Hypertext Link Data Format

    I want to be able, from a request's column to access a certain URL, for example, suppose I have a column in the database that has URL data in it, and I want the user to be able to access the URL from the report. I know i can use the 'Hypertext Link' data format, but I don’t want the URL to appear in that column, I want for example the value of ‘Visit our website’ to appear and when the user clicks on that link, the underlying URL would be opened in a separate window.

    Hi mma,
    I think his requirement is something like he has 2 columns "URL" & "URL-Description"
    like... htttp://www.google.com & Google sight...
    but he don't want to show the url directly instead he will show description column and when he click on the description of google i.e. "Google Sight" it should navigate to the google sight... :-)
    Hope i am correct... but no on-fly answer.. ;)
