Create links to other Pages documents

I am a singer and have been using a binder with all my lyrics in it for shows. I got an iPad for my birthday and want to use it in the binder's place. With each show the set list changes and I'd like to be able to create a setlist document in Pages with links to other Pages documents with the corresponding lyrics. The lyrics documents would be static; the setlist document would always be changing. The links in the setlist document would be like hyperlinks of sorts, except instead of taking you to the web, they would take you to other Pages documents in the My Documents folder in Pages.
I've searched all over the place for a solution. I've even tried using spotlight to search for the lyrics documents as a workaround, but spotlight doesn't find the Pages documents. Is this something I can set up on my MacBook and then transfer to my iPad? Is there other software besides Pages that can do this?
Thank you in advance!

I think it would be much simpler to save your lyrics as pdfs and use one of the many dedicated music apps that allow you to create setlists. I use forScore (love it!), but you might also check out Unreal Book and Music Reader.
If you have a Mac, of course it's a cinch to print any file to PDF. For windows, possibly the free version of CutePDF would work for you.
EDIT I see you already have these printed out in binders. Just scan to PDF, then.

How can I create links to other pages in iBooks that will function in PDF?

Hi,
I know some people have asked previously how to create links to other pages of their book within iBooks. I having an issue with this myself that I haven't been able to resolve. I am able to create the links, and they seem to function within the program, however, once I export the document as a PDF file (the format in which I need to have this ebook!), the links seem to be non-functional. Does anybody have a fix for this?
Thank you so much for any suggestions you may have!! I really need to figure this out for my client.
Regards,
Meggyn

Exporting as a PDF does alter/lose/remove certain functions. Adobe Acrobat has its own page navigation system.
A lot of the hidden engine of iBooks Author is basically very similar to building a website! so links and books marks are an "internal" function.
IF you have Acrobat and not just the Adobe Reader, you can make links. I have never needed to try, but I see a working link related index in the many software manuals I have.

How to create links to other pages i create??

I have finished my "homepage" and it has 5 buttons on it.("home",
"Contact us", etc.).
I have no idea how to create links to other pages i create.
For example, if the user clicks on "Contact us", i wnat contact information
to appear. So, do i create another html document that will contain contact
information and then call that page whenever the user clicks "Contact us". Or
do i just create another applet that contains contact information and display
the applet in the appropriate area, whenever the user clicks "contact us".
Hope that wasnt confusing. Bascially, I am sitting here looking at my buttons, not knowing
what code to put under the actionPerfomed part of each button.
thanx
trin

... judging from your question... the best way i think is to create another page...
.... so when ur user clicks on Contact Us..... he/she will be taken to another page...
there are other techniques besides this.... but it is always better to stick with the easiest one
... so you need to create separate pages for all of your links....
... if you have any questions... let me know
.... have fun

Does pages 6.0 support internal links to other pages?

I want to create links inside of Pages 6 to take the reader to other locations in the document. I need to have these fully functional links exported with the document into pdf. Has anyone actually tried this in 6.0? Des it work?

Keynote is a version number ahead of Pages, because it was the first iWork app that came out. Numbers was the last and is one version behind.
Pages '09 has Bookmarks that do the internal linking.
It is Pages 5.2.2, the current version, that is brain dead.

JSP links to other pages

Hi,
I have a web app that does not use a framework. I do try to follow the MVC pattern though by having all requests go through one Controller Servlet.
I have a Home page jsp, which only has links to other pages. The Home JSP does not have a <form>. Just <a href's.
These links take the user from the home page to other pages which do work and submit forms. However, some of these pages (jsp's) need to be prepopulated with data. For example, I have a page which gives a random phrase from the Database when clicking on the submit button. But when I first get to the page by following the link from Home Page, it is empty. I want to arrive at the page and have it already gotten the first phrase for me.
One option I thought of is to have the link from the Home Page which took me to the Random Phrase page, go through the Controller servlet initially and have the Controller servlet, after having done the work of retrieving the phrase redirect to the Random Phrase page.
If this is the correct approach, how can I accomplish this? How do I have a <a href link in a jsp, redirect to a servlet right away without submitting a form or something?
Thanks.

So I put this in my home.jsp:
<a href="/Household/randomPhrase.php">Random Phrase of The Day</a> In web.xml I have this:
<servlet>
     <servlet-name>VHController</servlet-name>
</servlet>
<servlet-mapping>
     <servlet-name>VHController</servlet-name>
     <url-pattern>*.php</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>According to the above, when I click on this link it should take me to the Servlet's doGet() method.
However, when I actually click on it, I get the following exception in the browser:
java.lang.NullPointerException
     com.myapp.servlet.VHController.doPost(VHController.java:47)
     com.myapp.servlet.VHController.doGet(VHController.java:35)All I do in the doGet() method is:
          response.setContentType("text/html");
          PrintWriter out = response.getWriter();
          out.println("URL: " + request.getRequestURL());
          out.println("URL: " + request.getRequestURL());
          out.println("METHOD: " + request.getMethod());Could anyone suggest what the problem may be? Why I am not getting the expected behavior?
Thanks.

Build a blank/other type of page which can show links to other pages

Can someone please tell me how to build a blank/other type of page which can show links to other pages? I mainly want a page to show 3 links, once someone clicks on it, then it will go to a specified page. I tried using URL, but that did not work. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you very much for your help in advance.
-Grace

Do a region (probably a HTML-based one is fine), enter in the HTML for your links, and that should be it. What didn't work about this?
Your links probably should appear like this in your coding (use substitution variables):
f?p=&APP_ID.:3:&APP_SESSION.
In the above example, "&APP_ID." will resolve dynamically to the application ID that you are in, "3" is page 3 (change this to whatever page you want the link to be), and "&APP_SESSION." is the existing session number (if you don't include this, the user will receive a new session ID if the destination page is public or will be intercepted annoyingly to log in and get a new session ID which you probably don't want).
Do not include the full http path. Just start with f?p... and everything is assumed to be relative to Apex on the current environment.
Those are effectively the minimum requirements for a URL in Apex to go from one page to another in an app. You can add to that the additional URL parameters for Request value, Set items with values, clear cache, reset pagination, etc. if you need to. Check the Apex online help under "understanding URL syntax" for details on these.

How do I create an internal link in a pages document?

I can do external link ok (Hyerlink + enter web address) - but cant find way to link to a page within the document - an internal link.
Thanks for your genius.

Bookmarks is just one of the many, many features that have been eliminated or changed. Leave feedback for the Pages team using the link in the Pages menu.

Menus created using manual won't link to other Pages

Created a site and had a menu created using manual which was linked to sub pages within the site. The menu was for specific pages not requiring access from the sites top level menu.
The menu was working but now it is not possible to edit or replace the menu as there does not seem to be any way of adding the link to the required page. The dropdown box to the side of hyperlink stays greyed out and can't be accessed. This is only happening to links added using the menu widget under manual, ordinary text links seem to be OK.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Confirm that there are no objects overlaying the navbar. How did you change the background, from the Inspector/Page/Layout pane?

Creating Links for other Web pages within Flash C23

Hello Everyone,
First of all, I'm sure you're tired of answering the
questions regarding "Links". Although, I'm having a very
difficult time with this issue. I just purchased Flash C23,
taken all the tutorials from www.lynda.com, but
I do not find answers for linking one web page to another
within Flash C23. I have read all the answers
on this forum and still can not get my buttons to link up to
my other web pages.
I have figured out how to create the buttons, although, I'm
not doing something right when I try to link up my web
pages. You have to realize I'm coming from Adobe Golive (no
need for codes or scripts). I do not want to stop
using Flash... Can someone help?
Thank you so much, it's appreciated.

replace 'siteName' with whatever you use to target your site
in a browser. 'FranchelleDesigns' is what you named your page in
GoLive.
function loadPage(event:MouseEvent):void{
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.siteName.com/FranchelleDesigns.html");
navigateToURL(myURL,"_blank");
my_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadPage);
EX: my website is
http://www.damonedwards.net
lets say I create some HTML page that I want to link to, and I save
it as, ContactMe.html... this is what I would use in flash to link
to it
function loadPage(event:MouseEvent):void{
var myURL:URLRequest = new URLRequest("
http://www.damonedwards.net/ContactMe.html");
navigateToURL(myURL,"_blank");
my_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, loadPage);

Creating linked tables in Pages

I'm attempting to make a quote sheet in pages. This requires a set of tables which are linked. Either linked to each other within pages, or, linked to an existing numbers document. However, I can't find this anywhere.
Below are the two tables I'd like to add. The "Build cost of project" of the second table should be the sum of the "Total Cost" column of the first table.
Note: This is a capture from Numbers, although desired behaviour should be the same in Pages.
Any suggestions?

Tables can not be linked internally in Pages.
The ability to merge data from a Numbers document is a one off event and does not update itself automatically. You can merge again but the fields are limited to those listed in Pages09_UserGuide.pdf Chapter 11 p246.
It is possible you can fudge a result into a listed field, but I doubt that will prove a long term viable strategy.
Your only hope is to use a single table with cells that reference the results of formula in other parts of the same table.
It doesn't have to be visibly all one table as the cell borders do not need to be visible, or if they are can have empty cells between that don't show.
What you are asking for is usually managed by a relational database like FileMaker. The only current DTP/Word Processing application that has a database built in is Ragtime and is rather pricey and much weaker than Pages on layout and design.
Have you considered creating your quote sheet fully in Numbers, which has a reasonable amount of DTP that could make the printed quotation letter, the first sheet in a set of tables?

How to create a scrollable ( multi page) document using Acrobat 5.0 for Windows

How do I create a multi page document that can be scrolled through? I want to place one drawing, which I have in pdf format, on each page of the document then send it via email so the recipient can open it and scroll through the pages to see all the drawings.

Thank you so much for the prompt and succinct reply. I tried what you suggested and it worked very well. I am new to Acrobat and it is nice to know there are knowledgeable professionals that can grasp the essence of the problem and lead the way to the solution. Thanks!

Creating links to other topics very slow

Hi, I have RH 7 and when creating links from one topic to
another it takes a long time for the dialog boxes to appear. I have
about 10 links per topic and at three minutes per link, that's a
lot of time. Thanks, Becky

I'm having the same, or a similar, problem. I'm trying to
insert lots (more than a thousand) of help jumps into a Word 2007
document and it's taking a minute or so per topic. I'm running on a
laptop with an electronic disk. I don't see any CPD files to
delete. I tried dragging a help topic from my project window to the
Word document, but that didn't seem to do anything. Something I
thought would work, but whch didn't, was to create the links as
Word 2007 links (which is fast), then do a conversion and convert
links to help jumps. I still haven't figured out why that didn't
work. If there are any other suggestions, that would be
appreciated.

Create link to Microsoft Word document

Hi All!
I'm using Frame 7.2 and WebWorks just so you know that my file is being converted to html.
I am trying to create a link to a Word document, that shows a Word icon (not the title of the document) with a pop-up (mouseover) that describes the "action" (something like: to open the worksheet, click here.)
Any ideas?
Cindy

Hello CindyLL,
You might try the following (assuming that you use WebWorks 2003)
1. Use a special paragraph format in FM for paragraphs that contain such a link (e.g. "Link_PDF")
2. In WWP2003 map a special WebWorks Format to this FM Format
3. In the macro tab of this FM format add html code that
* displays a word icon
* and give it an alt-text that says "Click the link" or whatever
Hope this helps,
Franz.

Click on a textbox, display alert and link to other page.

hi, here i wanna do is when i click on a textbox, onFocus on it, then call a function to perform checking, and then if the textbox data have breakdown record then display an alert to the user and link to breakdown page.
[Display out in a table]
<%for(int c=0; c<progPect.size(); c++){%>
<td id=progPect><input type="text" size=5 id="progPect" value='<%=progPect.elementAt(c)%>' onFocus="chkBreakdown(pass in 3 parameter);"></td>
<td id=progQty><input type="text" size=5 id="progQty" value='<%=progQty.elementAt(c)%>' onFocus="chkBreakdown(pass in 3 parameter);></td>
<td id=progLump><input type="text" size=5 id="progLump" value='<%=progLump.elementAt(c)%>' onFocus="chkBreakdown(pass in 3 parameter);></td>
after calling the chkBreakdown function and found out that it has record, then pop up an alert that tell the user this record have breakdown, and then link to the other page with the same window.
so the problem is how to identify user click on which row in the table.

Vuze installs ask.com's tool bar also. Check for a Vuze plug in. Thanks for the fix.

Linking to other pages is not working

I have a slice that I want to link to another page. I selected the slice and in the drop down that displays in the property inspector for the Link field, I select the page I want it to go to. However, when I test the page, it does not work, and in Safari, I get this message:
No file exists at the address “/Users/MediaFred/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fireworks CS5/FWTemp/4193627/page2.htm”.
What is wrong with this?

Did you try previewing all the pages in browsers?
