Creating an invisible link

I'll try to explain this; In Freeway I could create a shape
(a box) and assign it a link. The box was transparent so i could
move it anywhere on a page and that's where the link would be. I
have part of a photograph I want to be a link but I can't figure
out how to place a link there.
Anybody have any suggestions? I don't want anything showing
on the photograph.

Can i do an invisible link in a table cell

Hi people, can anyone help.
i need to create an invisible link in a table .
i was originally using a photoshop image as my web page and
placing links on it using an image map. Giving me links hovering
over glowwing text in the original photo to take me to other pages.
Now i have changed my ways and placed the image in a layout
table and used style sheets and cells to position, add video and
links in cells in the table, with the old image now being
background for the table.
i still want to use the photoshop background images' glowing
text to link to aswell as my other video and text links but cannot
trigger the image map as the glowing text is not a foreground image
therefore has nothing to link to.
Adding a table cell around the section i want to link , i
need to place an invisible image in the cell giving something to
link to, which would give the appearence of linking to the the
background glow text, i cant fill a box with same colour text to
look invisible because the background image is too complex. And i
can't mimick my cool glow text in dreamweaver, so
what can i do.? Link to anchors on other pages ? Invisible
link in cell ?
Really appreciate your help !
Thanks

You can add a transparent gif - create a 1x1px clear.gif, and
then size
it any size you want in your table cell. Add a link to that
gif.

Open Link in New Window creates an invisible window (visible after restarting).

When I use the right mouse button menu to Open Link in New Window from a web page it creates an invisible window. That is, I cannot see the window but it is listed in the Firefox Window menu. This newly opened window cannot be selected either by mouse or from the Window menu. However, if I quit and restart Firefox the new window appears as 0 pixels wide (i.e., a 1 pixel wide vertical line) and I can select it (by mouse or Window menu) and zoom it from the Window menu. After zooming I can operate on the window normally.

Get Firebug and inspect the element. You'll see that it actually is this:
onclick="javascript:saw.runThis
URL('saw.dll?PortalProperties&_scid=To2OnvCVXpY&PortalPath=/shared/paint/_portal/PoC\x2520FINS&Done=ManagePortals\x2526Done\x253dAdmin');return false" href="javascript:void(null)" FF doesn't even give you the "Open..." options and all IE versions as of 7 show them but actually don't do anything when you invoke them.

Can I Create A Symbolic Link to folders stored on an SMB Share folder?

Hello,
I am very new to Unix and was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction with regards to Symbolic links and an SMB share folder ....
Have purchased an ext. LAN Drive enclosure (http://www.macpower.com.tw/products/hdd3/pleiades/pd_usblan) which connects to my wireless router via ethernet like my G5 (main Mac) - our iBook connects via Airport. I have copied all my general documents/files to the SMB share folder on the ext. drive so that I can access them from the G5 and also the iBook.
However I'd also like to be able to store my actual Mail folder (/Users/Mark/Library/Mail/), , Safari folder (/Users/Mark/Library/Safari) + my Address Book and other folders sitting in the Application Support folder on my SMB share so all important docs/folders are in the one place. I've tried storing these folders on the SMB share and putting an Alias to these back in Users/Mark/Library/Mail etc but of course an Alias doesn't work.
Question 1: Can I create a symbolic link to these files if these are stored on an SMB share folder? If so, could you please tell me exactly what I'd need to type into Terminal? My SMB Share path is smb://STORAGE-XXXX/MARK
I have copied my iPhoto library and iTunes library to the SMB share and are working fine.
Question 2: Is it possible/worth attempting to move my whole home folder to the SMB share folder? Ideally, I'd like to be able to access my Mail from the iBook as well. If I could log into either the G5 or the iBook and access my latest Mail, Address Book and other Application Settings, that would be perfect. Would this be possible?
Thanks
Mark.

Dear Mark,
Yes you can. The command to create a link will look something like this:
$ ln -s thisFolder /Users/mark/thatFolder
I did this while I was hosting a microsoft based game. This put all of the players into a common directory.
SMB just resolved the link and everything worked fine.
However, as I understand it, some other applications do NOT work very well with links. As I have NOT tried it with other applications, I fear I can be of NO help to you in this matter.
The only way to find out which applications work with links is to try them and see what happens.
Best of luck,
Kurt

How do I create a downloadable link from an Interactive PDF file created out of InDesign CS6?

Hello,
I created an Interactive PDF file out of InDesign and would like to make the large file a downloadable link and share it with the user in an email. I do not want to use DropBox or GoogleDrive.
The company I contract for has their own site - do I insert the file into the site or can I create a separate link for it?
I will be recreating these presentation PDF's constantly, so I would like to know if there is a simple way to create this link for files in the size of 7-12MB.
Any ideas on downloadable links? I do have flash - but rarely use, perhaps load the file out of flash?
Thank you so much for your help,
Megan

Hi Willie,
Thanks for your help. Most likely contact the company who maintains the
site then to share the file with them I'm assuming?

How Can I Create an Event Link to a Page Tab?

I have a portlet in one tab that generates an event. I want to be able to send this event to the same page but to another tab where another portlet resides. Here's the code snippet that creates the link. This code is part of a custom JSP tag.
// Attempt to get access to the portlet render request to determine if we are within a portal context.
PortletRenderRequest prr = (PortletRenderRequest) pageContext.getRequest().getAttribute(
    HttpCommonConstants.PORTLET_RENDER_REQUEST);
if (null != prr)
    try
        // Set up the parameters used for the link.
        NameValue[] eventParameters =
            new NameValue("linkUrl", linkUrlParamValue)
        // Construct the link parameter we will be using.
        linkUrl = EventUtils.constructEventLink(prr, "linkClicked", eventParameters, true, true);
    catch (PortletException e)
        // Error processing removed...
}This code will generate the event correctly and all processing occurs as expected. However, I cannot find a way to force the second tab to display.
I am able to force the the second tab to be displayed if I use "Direct Access URLs". These links are in the form
[protocol]://[host]:[port]/pls/portal/url/page/[page_group_root_page_name]/[tab_name]
But is there a way to create an event link using a specific URL?

Hi,
One workaround that i can think of is:
1. Set the <passAllUrlParams>true</passAllUrlParams> attribute in your provider.xml of the portlet on the target page/tab.(dont forget to refresh the provider)
2. If you already have the url to the tab, then you just simply construct the form in your previous portlet to post to that url with all the necessary form fields.
3. Process the request parameters and render the second portlet.
hope that helps.
thanks,
Harsha

2. Added the following in the Listener.ora of Oraclehome 11/NETWORK/ADMIN:
LISTENER_SQL_FCD =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST =localhost) (PORT = 1541)

select * from test1@dblink
Error at Command Line:1 Column:20
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-28513: internal error in heterogeneous remote agent
ORA-02063: preceding line from DBLINK
Is there any issue with the set or definition that I get the above error?

What is the version of the Oracle database in which you have specified/and use the database link?
If it is for example 10.2.0.3.0 you need to apply the mandatory patch for RDBMS bug 5965763 first before being able to use an 11g gateway. Have a look at MetaLink note 457808.1 for details about this patch.

How to Create Public database link in oracle 9i?

where i am making mistake?
i gave the linkname as my remote database name.
am i have to make any entry in the tnsnames.ora?
thanks & regards

You have to remember that when you access a dblink, the database where the link is defined is acting as a client to the database to which the link points ... exactly the same as if you you were using sqlplus on the machine hosting the db where the link is defined. In other words, given:
Host 'Host-src', with database 'db-src', with a dblink 'lk_target'
Host 'host-trgt', with database 'db-trgt'
When you connect to db-src and access lk-target, db-src is now acting as a client to db-trgt. Exactly as if you had opened sqlplus on host-src and connected directly to db-trgt. So, given the above scenario
host-src$> sqlplus scott/tiger@db-src
sql> select * from emp@lk_target;when you execute that SELECT to the link, the same tns considerations are in effect as if you had
host-src$> sqlplus scott/tiger@db-trgtThe same tnsnames.ora entry, on the source machine, is required for both.

How to create a Tab Link in the existing view

Hello Experts,
My requirement is to make one view as Tab Link.
You must have seen in many existing IC Web screens, there are multiple tabs in the view area and you can toggle between the views by clicking the tab links.
As per my requirement, in the component ICCMP_BT_INR, in one of the views i need to create a tab link for the view Questionnaire which is part of different component ICCMP_SURVEY
Could you please guide me here ?
Regards,
Srikanth

Hi,
I quite certain that you can do this but it is lot of work. You need to create navigations links in run time repository, create plugs, create viewset with views. And then mostly important you need to call appropriate plugs, navigations. I am afraid I can not explain every thing step by step but definitely it requires lot of details and work.
However if you can see some existing examples then you will get an idea. One good example I have worked on is IUICMIO_MAIN and IUICMIO_METER. In this when MIO_ACCOUNT is called in MAIN, it will call two tabs from IUICMIO_METER dynamically.
Hope this helps.

How to create a dynamic link in a Form to link to a specific FOLDER

Hello,
I have created a reports of all employees of my department.
This reports shows me the empno and ename
When I clicked on a empno ( for example empno = 1 ) then then I got a MASTER DETAIL FORM about that employee(empno = 1) .
Who he or she is and which course he or she had followed.
I want create a dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM which shows me directly the folder of that employee ( in this example folder 1 ).
If I clickt on the report with all employees of my department on an other number ( for example empno = 3333333) then if I click on the dynamic link in the MASTER DETAIL FORM I want to see the folder of employee 3333333 !!! You know what I mean ?
What I want to know is, how to create a dynamic link that shows me directly a folder which is dependent on which empno I had clicked on in the report ( report with employee numbers and ename )
Is there any way to pass some parameters into a link to a Folder ? Is this possible in Portal ? Does anyone know how to do this, or do you have a suggestion how to solve this problem ?
Thanks a lot !!!
Chu Lam

Hi Chetan,
I am glad that someone had replied on my question.
I will explain it to you again.
I have created a report that shows me all employees. If I click on a employee number then I get an MASTER DETAIL FORM on my screen with all the information(where he works now and which number I have to dial ifhow can I reach him by telephone) of that employee on which number I clicked on.
I really like this mechanism. (You click on a number and the information that you see in the next screen is dependent of the number you clicked on ! )I have created all this. It works fine.
What I want is to expand this example.
Every employee has a FOLDER (yes, those ones in Content Area ) which they can insert text or image into that folder. The folder name is just the employee number. ( employee with employee number 3303, he owns a folder which is named 3303 and an employee with empno 9999, he or she owns a folder with the name 9999. )
Every employee can tell more about himself in that FOLDER by iserting text and images. For example : What he likes, pictures of his vacation, something like this.
What I want is this :
If I click on the first report,which provides me all employees on screen, on a employee number 3303 then I get a Master Detail Form on my screen with all information about that employee with employee number 3303. And I want in this MASTER DETAIL FORM to create a link that shows me directly the FOLDER of that employee ( 3303), so I can learn more about employee with employee number 3303. But I don't know how to create this link.
That link had to be dependent on the employee number. The difficult thing about this link is that this link had to be dynamic.
I hope this will make it clear to you :
(report all employees:)
empno ename
3301 john smith
3302 peter clark
3303 wilson jones
If I click on a empno ( for example 3303) then I get a MASTER DETAIL FORM which provides me information.
(MASTER DETAIL FORM )
EMPNO 3303
ENAME wilson jones
department New York
mobile number 98908763
Company tel. no day
AOL 097485838 monday till wednesday
Oracle 04848584333 thursday and friday
LINK
(what I want is to create a link here )
If I click on LINK in this MASTER DETAIL FORM then I want to link to the FOLDER of this employee ! ( In this example it is FOLDER 3303.
BUT IF I CLICKED ON THE FIRST REPORT ON A DIFFERENT NUMBER ( FOR EXAMPLE 3301) THEN IF I CLICK ON LINK IN THE MASTER DETAIL FORM THEN I HAVE TO LINKED TO FOLDER 3301.
I just want to know how to make a link like this ( create a dynamic link to a specific folder ).
Thanks in Advance.

APP-RG-09518: An error occurred while creating a database link

Hi All,
While creating a database link in Oracle EBS from one instance to another instance for transferring FSG reports
Go to Any GL Setup responsibility...Setup>System>Database links > Create new database link
Prior to the above...below steps should be done on the server.
1.grant create database link to <apps.user>; (on db server)
2.source tns entry should be in destination tns file and destination tns entry in source tns file. (check tnsping after entry)
3.*make sure destination tns entry of 8.0.6 oracle home should be in source tns file* (Because we are creating db link for the application)
4.Run the Program FSG Report.
Regards,
Harish Muramshetty.

Hi,
I have solved the issue as below:
This error was started when I install a software which I have made myself and it uses sql server compact edition 3.5.
I saw when I manually replaced the sql related files from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition\v3.5" with the files which my software setup had "version 3.5.5386.0" then the error started. And if copy back the latest version 3.5.8080.0
then it disappear. So use latest sql files in your software too.
My software was replacing the the latest files with older version.

Creating a Database link for a user

Hello All,
I am trying to create a database link for one of my users.
When I create it as sysdba the link gets created in the SYS schema which tells me that my syntax is working/fine.
But when I ALTER my SESSION and set my CURRENT_SCHEMA = <USER_NAME> I get ORA-00990: missing or invalid privilege
So I tried granting the user CREATE DATABASE LINK, CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK, and DROP PUBLIC DATABASE LINK.
Same error.
Any ideas what I am missing?
Thanks,
Craig
