Doc Links within Summ Total LMS

I have created a couple of Captivate tutorials that feature
links to PDF docs. Now I need to start using these tutorials
through Summ Total LMS and I don't know how to post the PDF files
so that I can edit the Captivate with the appropriate document
address to make the links work.

Hi,
Simply make the link to the pdf document using the file name
within captivate e.g., sales.pdf, without any filepath etc.
Then publish the project, and select the zip function within
captivate. Prior to uploading to SumTotal, double click the zipped
project and drag and drop all the .pdf files you have links to into
the zip package.
Then upload to SumTotal as a zipped package. The links within
captivate will open the .pdf.
Just make sure you have set the option to 'New' to open a new
window on click, in the click box properties within captivate when
making the link, that way the .pdf will openin a fresh window
allowing the project to remain.

Uploading Linked Captivate 2 Projects into Sum Total LMS

I've been trying to upload a series of media-rich linked
projects to our Sum Total LMS. Although there are several projects,
they are linked to play seamlessly to the end user. The problem is
when each project is published, it creates its own zip file. In
order to upload the files to the LMS they must be in one zip file
or they will upload as separate, independent learning modules. I've
encountered numerous challenges in attempting the upload.
Does anyone have any experience/suggestions about:
- Publishing each project into the same zip file
- Uploading linked Captivate 2 projects to an LMS, especially
the Sum Total LMS
- Uploading a project with flash videos to an LMS
I greatly appreciate any feedback you can provide.
Thanks!

I always link between Captivate files to ensure that my files
are not too big. I have done this many times; however, I have not
tried it when there is a quiz involved. What I do is link them
inside Captivate, publish the files (non-zipped, which you can do
if there isn't a quiz involved) and then zip them up together with
Winzip. When you load it into the LMS, you need to choose either
"Knowledge Document" or "General Document" and there, you can
choose the launch file (whatever file you want to load
first.)

How do you open a link within a PDF in a new window?

I created a PDF that will be viewed in a browser. Is there a way to set the links within the PDF to open in a new window?

Did you get an answer to this? I am having the exact same issue. My source html document has a link which specifies a target of _blank, but when I generate a pdf from that html doc, view the PDF in my browswer, and click the link, it overlays the PDF instead of opening a new window with the linked URL. I've seen this posted as an issue a number of times, but have yet to see a solution.

Can't see the ESS Additional Personal Data link within Personal Information

Hi All,
For some reasons, I can not see the Additional Personal Data link within the ESS Personal Information iView. I have checked the Homepage framework and the existence of the iView in the PCD and everything appears to be fine.
Do I need to assign any additional infotype to my id or give myself specific authorisations to see this link?
I would really appreciate if you could provide an answer to my query.
Thanks,
Vibhu

Hi,
I think mostly you have maintained the data in PA30 Transaction and had data in Info type 0105.
After this try to check with your EA-HR patch and SAP HR patch in the services. If both are not maintained at the same patch levels such type of problems will occur.

Two instances of Firefox open when I click on a link within my email client. How can I stop this from happening?

I am running on an iMac OS X 10.6.3 using Firefox 3.6.3 as my default browser and I use Postbox 1.1.5 as my email client. Anytime I click on a link within an email message two instances of Firefox open, one with my home page and one with the site the link was meant for. This happens only when Firefox is not already open. If Firefox is running and a link is clicked on it opens normally within the open instance of Firefox. I have contacted Postbox and am currently awaiting a response to see if they have any suggestions. While this is not a serious issue it is a bit annoying. I have Firefox set to open new links in tabs not new instances of windows, so it shouldn't be that. Any help in getting this to stop would be greatly appreciated.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Not sure, it's been going on for quite awhile.

That is a bug on Mac.
See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=531552 - Firefox 3.6b opens two windows when opening external links
''(please do not comment in bug reports to avoid bug spam for the devs)''

When I click on a link within a Web page, Firefox just spins until I reload the new page.

When I enter a new URL or select a bookmark, Firefox loads the page promptly. When I click on a link within that page to go to another page, the Firefox tab green spinner often just spins and spins. It either takes a very long time to load (2 or more minutes), or never finishes loading. It's usually a greater problem when I "Open a link in a new tab". I can usually make the new page appear by reloading, either clicking the red X and the circular arrow, or Ctrl-F5, etc.

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

In FF 34.0.5 I use to be able to click on a link within an e-mail and the link would open in a new tab; it now opens in the same tab; how can i change it back?

I'm using FF 34.0.5 (I like it). I use to be able to right click on a link, within an e-mail, and the link would open in a new tab. Now when I click on the link it opens in the same tab replacing my e-mail.
Example - a friend sends me an e-mail containing a link to a web site he thinks I'd like. I click on the link and go to the web site and then go back to the e-mail tab and reply to him. Now, when clicking that link, my e-mail disappears and is replaced by the new site.
How can I fix this? When this happened once before I was told to change the 'value' for a specific 'preference name' through the about:config page.
Can anyone help jog my memory?
Thanks!

Is this about clicking a link in an external program?
You can check this pref on the about:config page for external links.
* browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external (-1)
If this pref has the default value -1 then browser.link.open_newwindow is used.
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow
*1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar.
You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

Passing hierachy node variable from BW to BO Webi Report in open doc link

Hello All,
We are working on BW-BO integration and creating Webi reports based on Bex queries.
The question is regarding passing of a hierachy node value from BW to BO through open doc link.
I see that when we pass hierarchy node value, we have to associate that with the corresponding infoobject technical name in the link but not sure in what format it has to be sent.
For example, if ARM is the node value and 0HIERNODE is the infoobject , how should we send this value to BO.
Please help.
Thanks for your help,
Regards,
Tangudu S

You cannot change anything here. You should really find out how the values are retrieved from the database
THere is another option:
1) Activate the tracing on your BOBJ server
Check the following SAP notes (http://service.sap.com/notes) for that:
Unix: Note 1235111
Windows: Note 1260004
2) Run your WebI report from the InfoView by choosing first the desired hierachy node value from the LOV of your prompt.
3) Extract the MDX statement from the log file. It should contain the value for the hierarchy node. Copy this to the URL
It is easier to find this out if you have access to a Crystal Reports Designer installation. Do you?

Stratos

From a PDF in a browser window - open links within in that PDF in a new window

BACKGROUND SCENARIO:
Users view a PDF document within their browser window (default behavior at my organization). Key point is, the PDF isn't being viewed in an Acrobat Reader window, it's being viewed within the browser window.
Within that PDF, are many links to intranet pages. And incidentally, this PDF happens to be a document that is updated frequently (More on this caveat in a moment)
EDIT: The end users are end users, smart people, but not necessarily super-sophisticated computer users.
MY QUESTION:
When a user clicks a link within the PDF, I want the new page to open in a new window, NOT in the same window that the PDF was being viewed in.
I've done a fair amount of homework: The prevailing answer is to use Acrobat Pro's "LINK" feature to turn the hyperlink into a javascript command that opens the link in a new window, and to do this (a) MANUALLY, (b) ONE LINK AT A TIME, and (c) Repeat steps (a) and (b) EACH TIME the document gets updated. (Back track now to my earlier caveat.. this is a frequently changing document with lots of links... Doing manually and repeating the whole process each time the document is updated is a lot of work.)
I believe there are some add-on products that make this easier too.
So my question is... Other than add-ons, Is there another way? a better way? a more efficient way? Or is there another way, on the way?
SOMEWHAT RELATED QUESTION: (EDIT)
Another answer that would more or less satisfy me: is there a way either from the calling HTML page, or from within the PDF document itself, to force the PDF to open within its own Acrobat Reader window, rather than within the browser window? That would mostly dodge the issue, by opening linked pages in the browser anyway.
A little extra background information: The document also uses password protection (a management requirement), which is why opening the links in the same window is such a pain. Back-keying back to the document after viewing the link requires re-typing the document password, a noted pain. I'd accept a fix to that particular problem too, but I don't think there is one. Either way, the new-window question is one I'd like to solve. (FYI, I asked the password retype question separately over in the security forum, here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/5055162#5055162).

You can't update the destination for a link using JavaScript, because there's no way to read the link's current action. While there is a setAction() function to create a new action on an existing link, there's no "getAction" function.
In terms of how a PDF file opens, nothing in the document or in the HTTP headers can influence whether the file is opened in the browser or on the desktop - that's a user preference. What you can do with scripting on the server is send HTTP content-disposition headers that define the PDF file as something the user should download and save, rather than something the browser should try to open.

Links within a pdf won't open in Safari, but work fine on Explorer, Firefox

I created a pdf with embedded links and posted it to my site. The links within the pdf work just fine with Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, but they will not open with Safari, neither on a Mac nor on a Windows platform.
Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

Hi and Welcome to Apple Discussions...
Try this. In the Safari window, click the Preferences icon right side of page.
Then select the General tab.
At the bottom of that window, below, "Open links from applications", choose the option you want.

Links - How to reorder links within a folder. Also, how to make folders open in a tree view?

I'm working on a portal in Sharepoint 2007. It appears that I can only have one set of "Links" on a page, so I am grouping my related links into folders. I'm having two issues with this...
#1. I need to change the order of the links within a folder. When I try to Change Order under the Actions menu, I only get the main list of links, not those within the folder. How can I reorder links within a folder?
#2. When I click a Links folder, all links go away, except for the links within that folder. Is there any way to make the Links list work in a Tree view?
Sorry for the newbie questions, but I've not worked much in Sharepoint and I had this project dropped on me. :(

Hi,
For Question #1,
refer this link.
Hope it helps!
Thanks,

Why can't I use links within my email messages? When a link is clicked, nothing happens--it doesn't go to that specific website.

HI Ana ...
I had FB working again two days ago, and yesterday in mid-serve Safari just "couldn't find the server" once more...
That's a different issue...
First, if you can just use English, open System Preferences > Language & Text then select the Language tab. Drag English to the top of the list then restart your Mac.
Now for the server issue. Try using Open DNS. That shold help the "couldn't find the server" issue...
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
Click +
Enter these numbers exactly as you see them here.
208.67.222.222
Click +
208.67.220.220
Then click OK.
Try accessing Facebook on Safari now.

Correct linking within site problem

Hello everyone, I hope you will be able to help me or point
me in the right direction:
On the webhosting server that I am using (can't change it, my
company chose ...), there is an extremely strange linking structure
(or maybe it just seems strange to me?).
When you log-in into your account to upload your site, the
login takes you to the server/domain folder, where you simply
upload your site. Naturally, all ofther files within the "site" are
linked by /otherfile.html, because they are in the same folder.
However, the server that the hosting company is using requires the
link to be of the format /domainfolder/otherfile.html.
To illustrate it with code:
a) the way Dreamweaver sets up a link within a Dreamweaver
site relative to the index.html page:
<frame src="/IndexTop.htm" name="mainFrame"
title="mainFrame">
<frame src="/IndexBottom.htm" name="bottomFrame"
scrolling="auto" noresize>
b) the way I have to adjust the code for it to work on the
server
<frame src="/domainfolder/IndexTop.htm" name="mainFrame"
title="mainFrame">
<frame src="/domainfolder/IndexBottom.htm"
name="bottomFrame" scrolling="auto" noresize>
This means that I would have to go through every single link
that I creat in my site in wordpad after I am done in dreamweaver
and update those links.
Therefore, my question is - is there a way to automatically
add that /domainfolder/ part to every link? I was thinking that
specifying the Host directory as domainfoler would solve the
problem, but then wouldn't Dreamweaver:
1. put the index file into that directory
2. create a domainfolder directory in the host directory,
esentially causing a folder structure of the format
server/domainfolder/domainfolder (because when you log in your
files get automatically placed in your domainfolder on the server)?
Thank you very much for any help that you can offer, I
sincerely appreciate it.

You'd be ever so much better off without frames. But
<sigh> it's up to you.
Frames are rarely the optimal choice for your layout because
they bring SO
MANY problems into your life, and into the lives of your
visitors.
Anyhow - which DW are you using?
And - can you point me to any page on your site?

With acrobat 7, how do I make links (within the pdf) open in a new window-tab?

With acrobat 7, how do I make links (within the pdf) open in a new window-tab?

No love? From anyone?

How do you retain links within a page when converting from Microsoft word from a Mac?

Keeping Microsoft Word page links within a document or converting the filed map into bookmarks are not options when you work on a Mac. I subscribe to the Adobe Acrobat Plus service specifically to address that issue. But I can't find any documentation on this site that will walk one through the process. Can someone please direct me to a tutorial page that will allow me to keep my links and convert my bookmarks?

Have you tried using Safari's built-in method to email the content of a web page?
File > Mail Contents of This Page
(Keboard shortcut: Command-I)
If you don't want to email the entire page's content, you can easily edit it in the resulting email window, deleting the portions that you don't want.
