CSS a:link not working in browser

Hello all,
Every time I have tied to add the a:link pseudo class to a
page, it affects the links in design view correctly (according to
the style I've applied to the a:link) but it never shows up when I
preview in Firefox or IE. This happens regardless of whether the
a:link is in a document specific CSS file or external. My a:hover
styles work fine. Seems like I'm missing something basic.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you, Scott

Without seeing the page in question, what's the a:visited
style like? And
make sure you declare them in the order: link, visited,
hover, active. You
might be seeing the visited style color when you're looking
at the page in
the browser.

Some browser links not working - any browser, but just on my mac

I have a strange issue. Over the last while certain page links on browser pages (which seem to be Java script links) won't work in any of my 5 browsers. If I put the same page in to any of my laptop's or my wife's browsers, the links work fine.
For example, I just tried to order some stuff via Staples, and whenever I tried to go to the next screen via a button, nothing happened. Even if I switched User Agents in Safari or Firefox, the "next" button didn't work. Same in Chrome, Camino, Flock and Opera on the same pages. I have noticed lots of drop down menus are not working properly either on many sites.
I figure some bit of OS code must be either blocking or misreading the instruction, but what?
Any ideas? Any input would be greatly appreciated!!

errmm... i'm not sure why you are fiddling with java and system extensions...
java has nothing to do with javascript despite the name (you can blame sun for that) the javascript engine is an integral part of the browser not a separate extension.
Java on the other hand is an entirely separate entity and language that is independent of any one browser and is installed on the OS.
Javascript is commonly used in webpages (all most all these days) where as java is hardly used at all and is usually confined to little "applets" that run separately from the rest of the page.
If you suspect that it is something to do with your settings/preferences in your library then the easiest way to find out is by creating a new User account (go to system preferences> users> and add a user.) Then log into that account and try the browsers in there.
If you really think that it has something to do with system extensions then you can disable them by moving them out of the extensions directory (/System/Library/Extensions/) However i must stress that unless you know what you are doing and know what the extension does that you are moving to not do so... you can easily render your system unbootable if you move the wrong extension... unless you have installed a 3rd party system extension there shouldn't be anything in that directory that isn't meant to be there (this is a very different system from OS 9).
However there are internet plugins that may be interfering with your browsers, you can find these in /Library/Internet Plugins/ you can disable these by moving them also... the defaults are various flash, java, shockwave, quartz and quicktime files.

My Flash .swf nestled under my CSS, .swf links not working

I added some links in actionscript in my swf file and they work great but once inserted into my Dreamweaver file under my CSS the links are not responding. I know that I had to set up the CSS so that the .swf would fit into a desired shape but is there a way to have the links work above the CSS while still looking the way it does?
http://grizzlyutah.com/Grizzly_Graphics_Test

Hello Scott,
I'll try it once more, 'cause I want to understand AND learn. I used your swf file in my new testside:
http://dala-laegret1963.de/FlaSwfGrizz.php
and linked it, as you can see if you move with your cursor over the swf file. You will see the description:
"Grizzly_Graphics.swf with link to http://www.grizzlyutah.com/Grizzly_Graphics_Test/products_trade_show_graphics.html".
When you now click into your swf file "Grizzly_Graphics.swf" you will be conducted to your
http://www.grizzlyutah.com/Grizzly_Graphics_Test/products_trade_show_graphics.html.
My other two buttons - which can be integrated into a website - I've left in their function as an example, if you/one needs more links.

Hi karthirocks! I'm sorry to see you're having any difficulties using these links. I've clicked on both, but had no problems getting pages to launch or in getting the application to download. If this is still a problem for you, please describe the issue you're experiencing. Also, please share the browser version you're using, and if you've enabled any security feature that prevents access to certain secure sites or services. Thanks!

External links not work

Hello,
I have a word document that has external links. Text that
links to other page or other url.
When I convert my doc (word document) into a swf using flash
paper 2 the links not work. There are still highlighted but no
linking is taking place.
please help me.
Thanks
Alejandro

I am having the same problem. At first I thought it was
because I had converted an excel file but I tried the same
information from a word document and the links do not work in the
browser or if I view the SWF file separately. Additionally, when I
convert the word file to a pdf none of the hyperlinks to pages or
documents work but the links to email addresses do.

Adobe Edge links not working

Yeah I have also experienced links not working when I import my .oam file from Adobe Edge Animate also. Is there anything the Muse team is doing to fix this issue? I need a response from you guys by the end of the week. my company website is malfunctioning due to issues with your software. If there is some sort of hotfix please let us know.

When you install the software illegally, using a volume license, there is a script you can run that will enter all of the adobe servers into your local DNS hosts file so the software can be activated. This makes accessing those domains impossible. This scenario fits the description of your issue, not suggesting anything beyond that.
The hosts file is in /private/etc/hosts and can be accessed through the terminal:
sudo nano /private/etc/hosts
If you see a bunch of adobe servers in there, that is your problem.

thanks for your reply but I need more specific operation.
maybe I am not very clear about the problem one. I mean when I run the code in standard mode, if I click the browse button, a window will pop out and I can choose a video file from my local harddisk. but if I run it in "web start execution" mode and "run in browser" mode. the browse button make no response when I click it.

E72 - Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V not working in browser

yesterday i updated my nokia e72 mobile to latest firmware 31 , after that Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V and Ctrl+A shortcut keys are not working in browser. which have made me feel as bad as typing the same text again and again (usfel in blogging or web messaging).
ALthough these shortcut keys are working in notes and sms application, but not in browser and Quick office applications (word, ecxel etc).
Can some one tell , how to fix it. or do i need to wait for next firware update. firmware 31 was released on 31 of march 2010. and today is 26th of May. almost two months have passed, and nokia has not yet released patch for this bug ....
Nokia, how long i need to wait ?, for this bug fix release.

(Had to edit because didn't read previous post clearly.)
I originally thought this was a problem of Quick office 6.2.217 Nokia_S603.2. I think it is a Nokia firmware problem as the previous post had stated.

Add new document link not working in upgraded sharepoint 2013?

Hello there,
Upgraded SharePoint team sites from 2010 to 2013. add new document link not working for shared document in upgraded sharepoint 2013?. it is specially not working on machine where Office web apps set up with this sharePoint server and it
is working fine with environment Office web apps not configured with Sharepoint.
Looking resoluion /suggestion, thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sushil

Hi Sushil,
According to your description, my understanding is that the add new document link was not working on machine where Office web apps set up with this SharePoint server after you upgraded SharePoint team sites
from 2010 to 2013.
For your issue, it can be caused by integrating Office Web Apps with upgraded SharePoint Site.
Firstly please make sure claims-based authentication is used by the SharePoint web application that is used to create the new document. Only web applications that use claims-based authentication can open
files in Office Web Apps. To determine the authentication provider for a web application, follow these steps:
1.In SharePoint 2013 Central Administration, click Manage web applications.
2.Select the web application that you want to check, and click Authentication Providers on the ribbon.
The authentication provider must be displayed as Claims Based Authentication for Office Web Apps to work correctly with the web application. To resolve this issue, you can delete the web application and recreate
it using claims-based authentication, or you can change the authentication method of the web application.
Secondly, make sure the WOPI zones match on the SharePoint 2013 and the Office Web Apps Server farm.
To do this, run the following command on the SharePoint Server:
Get-SPWopiZone
The result will be one of the following:.
internal-https
internal-http
external-https
external-http
Next, run the following command on the SharePoint Server.
Get-SPWOPIBinding
In the output, look for WopiZone: zone. If the results from Get-SPWopiZone don’t match the zone that is returned by Get-SPWOPIBinding, run the Set-SPWOPIZone -Zone cmdlet on the SharePoint Server to change
the WOPI zone to match the result from Get-SPWOPIBinding.
If not work, you can try to disconnect SharePoint 2013 from Office Web Apps Server and re-configure Office Web Apps for SharePoint 2013.
For more information, please refer to the article:

Fresh Install HCM 9.1 but Links not working. Help please

Dear All,
I'm trying to make a switch from SAP to PeopleSoft. I tought it easier to install PSFT since the number of source to install is much less than SAP. However, I kept getting same error where the links not working no matter which environment I tried to install.
I downloaded all software from eDelivery.
HCM 9.1, PTOOLS 8.52, Oracle 11g 64 bit, Oracle Client 32 bit.
First Try:
Install on windows 7 64bit. Everything works fine until first login to the PSFT and all links not working.
Suggestion from Hakan is to apply the patch and gave me a link to the old FTP site. I downloaded the 85209 patch but got password.
Finally I managed to get a customer ID from a friend and downloaded Patch 85211 and applied. But got java error so I scrapped it.
Anyway, Gasparotto said the environment is not certified and will not fix my problem with the patch.
Second Try:
Installed Virtual Box.
Installed Windows 2008 R2 and applied the SP1.
Installed everything all over again.
Ensured the PTWEBSERVER password similar the username.
Everything works fine but when login to PSFT, again..... links not working and see on the bottom left corner there are some javascript error where they cannot find certain peoplesoft objects..
Just upgraded to IE 9 because I read somewhere IE 8 is not certified.
Tried to login again, no error message and everything looks fine but... links not working.
Logs also looks normal to me.
Does anyone ever encountered similar issues before?
Does this is a normal behaviour before tools patch 85211 being applied ?
Thanks,
aLuNa

Does this is a normal behaviour before tools patch 85211 being applied ?Without patch, you have the error you mentioned. How many time I told that 8.52.03 min. is required, I did not go further, but there was some bugs before which make it not working.
I understand that's rather frustrating for people who wants to jump to Peoplesoft. I don't know SAP, but here you go, Peoplesoft is not a simple toy.
Unfortunately, if you have no access to My Oracle Support to get the Peoplesoft patches, you have no way but work on Peoplesoft OVM (free of use), and to use them on VirtualBox, the Jim's articles are worth to follow.
Nicolas.
PS: @Jim, thanks for the kind words.
My last install guide is quite old now (PT8.50/Linux), even though it did not change very much within the last tools 8.52. But seeing the number of time such questions have asked over here (PT8.52 on Windows), I'm thinking to write one more, that time on Windows.

Links not working correctly in PCUI for CRM

Hi All,
We are implementing mySAP CRM 4.0 through PCUI on Portal
EP6 SP14.
I have integrated the CRM Business Package 60.2 in Portal.
Proper User has been created in the backend and assigned Sales Manager Role both in the portal and in the CRM backend.
We are facing problem of links not working in the CRM Contents. When we click on the links in the CRM Portal Contents ( BSPs) we dont get the desired application opening.
When we click any links in the BSP's ( Activity Links in Opportunity Management BSP ) we get a blank page popped up.
I have the screen shots with me. Any one responding can get the screen shots from me.
Thanks in Advance
Rohit

Rohit,
Have you maintained configuration in (transaction CRMC_BLUEPRINT_C --> Navigation (URL Generation) --> Assign Object Method to Role)? Be sure that the role that you are using is present and ID Page/Service field correctly points to the pcd url for your portal.
When testing, it may be helpful to set parameter CRM_URL_BUFFER_OFF = X on the user profile (SU01) to turn off the url buffer. That way changes made above are immediate.
Best Regards,
Bernard

Why Does Dynamic Link Not Work

I purchased the CS5 Adobe Production Premium. I have been working in Premiere and I have been learning about how to use Dynamic Link. I want to be able to alter clips in After Effects and bring them back and forth into Premiere. When I go to File/ Adobe Dynamic Link/New After Effect Composition, I get this message:
Adobe Dynamic Link Requires Adobe Production Premium.
Since I own production premium, I do not know why I am getting this message. I have reinstalled the CS5 Production Premium Software twice and it still gives me the same message. What can I do to get Dynamic Link Working.

Thank you for the tip. Could you possibly tell me how to deactivate and
then reactivate the suite. I am using a Macbook Pro laptop running OS
10.6.4. I do not even know where to start.

Subject:        Why Does Dynamic Link Not Work
Deactivate the software (not uninstall), and then reactivate the suite.
This often fixes this. You can opt to leave the serial number on the
system; no need to clear it and re-enter it.

Flash Global Security & Links Not Working?

Hi all,
I am absolutely near some sort of breakdown with my Flash website....I really hope someone can help!
I am building my portfolio website; I'm using Dreamweaver CS3 (on Mac) and inserting Flash animations in the centre of a table in each Dreamweaver page. All was working fine until I built the Contact page animation on Flash last night. I linked in some external websites to my Blog, Flickr and Twitter and also need a button to launch the user's default mail client.
When I tested the animation (CMD+ENTR) in Flash the links appeared to be working, if after a few clicks. I then inserted the Contact animation into the Contact.html page on Dreamweaver and tested it in Safari. A dialogue box came up regarding something about security settings and Flash 8 (makes no sense as I am using Flash 9); and I ended up on the Global Security Setttings panel page on the Adobe website. I selected the entire folder the website is in on my hard drive under "Trust Files in these Locations". Now the ENTIRE website's flash animations are not working. There are links to internal pages of the site (i.e. a link to the "Contact" page in the animaiton on the Home page) which are now not working either. No error messages come up when I test the movie in CS3 either. I have refreshed Safari, restarted the Mac and redone the folder on the Global Security Settings panel. Also loaded the entire website onto a PC this morning, all links not working either.
Actionscript 3 on the Contact page looks like this:
import flash.events.MouseEvent;
//---Blog Button---\\
var getBlog: URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.myblogsdomain.com");
Blg_Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, eClick);
function eClick(event:MouseEvent):void{
navigateToURL(getBlog, "_self");
//---Twitter Button---\\
var getTwitter: URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.twitter.com/mydomain");
Twt_Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, eClick1);
function eClick1(event:MouseEvent):void{
navigateToURL(getTwitter, "_self");
//---Flickr Button---\\
var getFlickr: URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.flickr.com/photos/mydomain");
Flkr_Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, eClick2);
function eClick2(event:MouseEvent):void{
navigateToURL(getFlickr, "_self");
//---Email Button---\\
var getMail: URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:[email protected]");
Eml_Btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, eClick3);
function eClick3(event:MouseEvent):void{
navigateToURL(getMail, "_self");
I'm not 100% sure if the e-mail AS3 I set up is correct, but as none of the links are working I can't test it. I cannot provide a link to the website as it isn't uploaded yet, and I don't really want to upload it not working properly.
Any help at all would be gratefully received, I'm really, really on the brink of some sort of breakdown. Thanks.

Thanks Samuel.Wong and Ned Murphy for the information.
I'm not actually sure what happened but my website suddenly started working again today, I think possibly by selecting "Always Allow" on the Global Security Page as well as inserting every individual file as well as the folder under "Trusted Locations" has also done the trick.
The external links appear to work when I test the movie in Flash CS3, but the same warning comes up once the movie is inserted into a Dreamweaver html page and tested in Safari. However I think when the links (all except the email ) appear to be working in Flash then it should be just fine once uploaded onto the server. Many thanks for your advice once again.
