Create a link from database

I am using dreamweaver and am new to php.
I have a field Map_String containing
http://maps.google.com/staticmap?center=40.714728,-73.998672&zoom=14&size=512x512&maptype= mobile&markers=40.702147,-74.015794,blues%7C40.711614,-74.012318,greeng%7C40.718217,-73.99 8284,redc&key=ABQIAAAATotG25YVOf4zCWnbvczg2hTGT278_JCnmvJMEjRLCiYPguMCxxQ4fuf3_8qpre1icP6- YoywNxF44w
I can extract this data and display in a text box :
mysql_select_db($database_mapping, $mapping);
$query_Maprecord = "SELECT Map_String FROM gps_data";
$Maprecord = mysql_query($query_Maprecord, $mapping) or
die(mysql_error());
$row_Maprecord = mysql_fetch_assoc($Maprecord);
$totalRows_Maprecord = mysql_num_rows($Maprecord);
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
<label>test
<input value="<?php echo $row_Maprecord['Map_String'];
?>" type="text"
name="textfield" />
</label>
</form>
I need convert the above into a link but cannot work out the
correct syntax.
Any help appreciated

I have added the code when run locally the link takes me to
the google page
but I get error
Google
Error
Bad Request
Your client has issued a malformed or illegal request.
If I cut and paste the link from IE and paste into a new
window I get the
google map as expected. The site is at www.iw10.co.uk.
My Code as follows:
<?php require_once('Connections/Mapping.php'); ?>
<?php require_once('../Connections/Mapping.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {

How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?

How can I create a link from a CHM file to a webhelp file?
The CHM output (accreditation.chm) is stored in a parent directory, and the webhelp output (index.htm) is stored in a child directory.

Open the usual Link dialog and enter the relative path from where the CHM will be installed to where the webhelp will be installed.

Help Please - having difficulties creating af link from the text to an attached file i acrobat

I have been reading the help, but it just wonn't work when I try.
I have tried as followed (I am working with a danish version, and hope to matched the same word as in the english version of Acrobat Xpro):
1. From the toolbox i choose content and then 'hyperlink'
2. I mark the text from which i wish to make a link
3. Acrobat respond with an popup picture 'create a link'
4. From the popup I mark 'Open a side' and push 'next'
5. Acrobat respond with a new popup picture 'create / go to a side'
6. I go to the navigator and open the list with attached file's that I have embedded in my acrobat file.
7. I mark the to which i wish to make a link to
8. In the popup 'create / go to a side' that stilll is open, i push 'Mark hyperlink'
Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
How do i do it right?
Please help.

Hello Bernd
Thanks for a quick respond.
This corresponds to the text I have tried myself, but apparently I do something wrong
1.      Open a PDF that contains a PDF file attachment – done
2.      Go to where you want to create a link. If that location is in the file attachment, click the Attachments button in the navigation pane, select the file attachment, and click open.
Here I go to side number 10 from which I wish to make a link from (I am not open the attachment file at this moment, as the location not is inside the file attachment).
(I earlier also tried to mark the attachment file and click open, and It result that the attached file just opened normally without creating a link to the file).
3.      Choose Tools > Content > link, and select the area for the link
Here I mark the text on side 10 from which I wish to make a link to a attached file
4.      In the Create Link dialog box, set the link appearance, select Go To A Page View, and then click Next
Here I have selected ‘Go to a page view’ as told and I click Next
5.      Set the page number and view magnification you want, either in the parent PDF document or in the file attachment, and then click set link.
Here I go to the navigation pane and mark the attached file from the file list (the files in the list hasn’t any side number in the list) and then I click Set Link.
Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
What do I do wrong.?

Creating multiple links from one map image in Flash CS4

I have been tasked with creating multiple links from one map image using flash. Each link would go to the main website page with that location. I assume I could create a button for each location on the map but not having a lot of experience any help / tutorial you know of would be super helpful.. Thanks! Not looking for someone to work me thru it but a little guidance would be great!

If I was to answer the problem, I would be giving you what you asked not to be given... the solution. So I'll suggest that you start by researching the getURL() function. That is what AS2 uses for opening web pages.
As for coding a button, I'll recommend the following article for you... it will explain the proper approach to coding a button, which will give you an advantage over others who don't follow it, but instead use the way the article says not to.
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/as_bestpractices_04.html
Google is one of the best resources available for learning how to do things with Flash--it's the first place I go when I have a wondering. In general, if you type in the right keywords, you get fairly good search results. In your case, combinations of "AS2", "button", "getURL", "tutorial" would probably work well.

How to create a link between database schema?

Hi,

Thanks,
Sathish kumar D

Yes iam trying to Archive
I said achieve not archive. Anyways so you are trying to archive the data. Can you just detail your requirement ? What exactly do you want ?
Only few tables will be moved to Archive Schema and other foriegn key tables will have a reference to the Live Schema. So how i can create the link between the Archive Schme to Live schema?
There is no question of creating database links between 2 schems. It is pure stupidity. If you want to access any object from another schema grant proper privileges and create a synonym for the object. Database links are not meant for this purpose.

How can I delete the site (created in webDB) from database?

Hi I have the WebDB 2.2 and Database server Oracle8i and I created a lot of sites with WebDB but I do not know how can I delete them from database server. Could somebody help to me?

Log into sql plus as webdb
Drop user <site name>_admin cascade;
Drop user <site name>_public cascade;
Drop user <site name> cascade;
and drop any other users you have made specically for this site.
Remove the dad from the listener settings.
If you wish to use this site name again in the same database you also have to delete a record from a table in the Webdb schema.
I can't remeber what that is.....
Good Luck
Dave.

You can open both Muse files at once, copy the content of a page on one site, then paste it into a new page on the other site. You might have to redo some of the page styling.

Creating Target links from iweb blog

how can i create a link that will open a new window and not navigate from my blog? iweb automatically inserts 'http://' and if i add a link like
'jack johson - do you remember'
iweb reads it as: http://<a href="http....
this option should be a must have for any blog software. so how can i do it in iweb??

Welcome to the discussions, tcameron.
Right now, there's no way to do this from within iWeb, though if you know how to edit the HTML, you can always change it on the server.

Creating dynamically JTree from database values

Hi,
I have a local database with some node values. I receive these values from database as a String[].
short example:
String[] Values = {"mainNode","Processors","mainNode","RAM","mainNode","Monitors",
"Processors","INTEL","Processors","AMD","RAM","Kingston","RAM","GoodRAM",
"Kingston","400MHz","Kingston","433MHz"}First value is higher node, second is a child.
I'd like to produce dynamically JTree from Values[] like below:
MainNode
|----Processors
      |----INTEL
      |----AMD
|----RAM
      |----Kingston
            |----400MHz
            |----433MHz
      |----GoodRam
|----MonitorsI can't build up any working and fast solution :(
Can anyone help me ?
Please for any advices (samples) which will help me to apply it.
Dearly regards!

This is a relatively straight forward task but it smacks of being homework so unless you post what you have already done you are unlikely to be given any code.
As a hint -
Go through the data creating a Map between the parent value and a child DefaultMutableTreeNode which contains as user object the child String.
When you extract a parent String from the data lookup the parent DefaultMutableTreeNode in the map and add the child DefaultMutableTreeNode to the parent DefaultMutableTreeNode.
Note - All the map is doing is giving you a quick way of looking up a DefaultMutableTreeNode given a parent name.
Note - that your tree will have problems if the same value appears in two or more branches!

How to Create file link from dynamic table.

Howdy -
I have MySQL database over PHP containing a simple table that lists a group of documents, including their file system address (contained within the site).
I've successfully created a recordset showing this table, and attached that to a dynamic table on a .php page. The display is correct, except I can't get the column contents to link to the document. The column just shows the text (title) of the document.
I've consulted article tn_15364 (http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/153/tn_15364.html), but that doesn't seem to work...
Any thoughts would be appreciated. I'm sure this is pretty simple, but I'm coming up snake eyes.
Charles Andrews

To clarify:
My site has a folder where uploaded files (.doc, .xls, .pdf, etc.) are stored after having been uploaded by a user. During this upload process, the location of these files is stored, along with other identifying data, in a simple database table.
I have a dynamic table created in Dreamweaver that pulls from this database, listing the document name, etc. I would like the document name shown in a column to automatically link to the actual file so a user could just click on it and open the file.
I hope I'm not making sound more complicated than it is -
Thanks,
CWA

How do I create a link from a pdf file to post on my website and Facebook?

I have created a pdf file from a document. Now I want to post a link to the pdf document on my website and on Facebook. In my Adobe Reader XI there is a tab that says "Create Link", but when I click onto it, it just takes me back to the original file, where it is saved on my computer, I am not real techy. If anyone can explain this step by strep, I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.

Reader will not be involved.
First, you need to upload the pdf to your website. Once you upload the file, you need to add a link to it from a page on your website and Facebook.

Creating separate forms from Database

I'm using Acrobat 9.1.2 and LiveCycle Designer ES ver. 8.2.1x.
I have an MS Access database populated with names/info regarding various people (Customers). I'm trying to create/generate separate (Order) forms, one for each Customer, each pre-populated with the Customer's contact information from the database. I want to e-mail each customized form to each Customer.
Each Customer should be able to change/correct inaccurate Customer information on the form (set control "Type" to "Calculated - User can override"?).
Each form will also have a table containing various "Products" (not connected to the database) and drop-down list controls from which each Customer can select the number/quantity of each Product he/she wants to order. Price extensions, subtotals, and totals are all calculated using FormCalc.
The Customer will then be able to both "Submit by e-mail," and "Print" and return the form by mail with his/her payment. I will then collect/assemble the returned .xml files and import them into the MS Access database myself.
Where I'm hung up is when I connect the Order form to the database, only one form is created, and only data from the first record appears in it. How do I create one form for each Customer from the database?
You can e-mail me at [email protected]

So each record in the DB represents a separate instance of the form to be mailed out to someone.....right?
Normally that level of functionality is done server side but there is one reason why you may not want to do this clicent side. Let me explain. You woudl have to write an automation script that woudl retrieve each record from the DB. Once a record is retrieved you coudl automate the mail of the doc , then get the next record and mail ...etc...until all records are done. All of this is possible except for the sending of the email. Acrobat/Reader will allow you to create the email message and control all aspects of it, but it will not allow you to send an email without the user hitting the send button. So if you want to have the mail generated, then hit send after every instance then it could be done.
If you do this using server products then this is not an issue and can be easily done, but note that the cost of the server products will make the solution out of reach for all but the company's that do mass mailings or e-statements etc.
Hope that helps
Paul
