  • Mailto links are not working. How do I set mailto: links to open in Outlook?

    mailto: links used to open in Outlook. Then they began opening Gmail, so I uninstalled the Google Toolbar. Now mailto: links do nothing when I click on them. I've tried deleting the mimeTypes.rdf as recommended by [http://kb.mozillazine.org/File_types_and_download_actions#Resetting_download_actions File types and download actions]. I also see that my mailto: is set to Outlook as shown by my [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Changing%20the%20e-mail%20program%20used%20by%20Firefox#w_setting-firefoxs-mail-client Applications setting], but the links are still not working, even though they work in IE. Ideas?

    ''I found entries having to do with the Google Toolbar which I no longer have. I guess the entries are left even after the Toolbar is uninstalled?''
    '''Will_T''', You are correct. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Changing_the_mail_program_used_in_Firefox#Extension_issues
    The [http://www.google.com/tools/firefox/toolbar/ Google Toolbar for Firefox] includes a [http://www.google.com/support/toolbar/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=34800 "Send with Gmail" feature] that changes the mail program used in Firefox to Gmail, regardless of what is set in Firefox options or your system default mail program. It is recommended that you do not select the "Send with Gmail" option in the Google Toolbar. Firefox already has a "Use Gmail" option available by default in the Applications listing for mailto actions. More importantly, uninstalling the Google Toolbar extension with the "Send with Gmail" feature enabled may leave you with Firefox opening nothing at all for mailto links. You can resolve this issue by resetting the Firefox user preference '''network.protocol-handler.external.mailto''' to the default "true" value in [[about:config]]. See [[Resetting preferences]] for details. <br>'''Note: the Google Toolbar is no longer supported by Google''' for Firefox 5 and up.

  • Since upgrading to FF5, "mailto" links no longer work - my "tools/options/applications/mailto" is set to gmail.

    Since upgrading to FF5, "mailto" links no longer work - my "tools/options/applications/mailto" is set to gmail.
    Previously, when I clicked onto an email link, my gmail would open up.
    Now, nothing happens.

    Please do the following.<br><br>
    #Open Microsoft Internet Explorer and then click '''Tools '''and go to '''Internet Options'''.<br><br>
    #Click the ''Programs ''tab and where you see "Email", choose your email client.<br><br>
    #Remove the checkmark from where it says "''Tell me if Internet Explorer is not the default browser''" in the same menu.<br><br>
    #Click Apply/OK and close Internet Explorer.<br><br>
    #Next, start Firefox and click the orange Firefox button, go to '''Options '''| '''Options '''| '''Advanced'''.<br><br>
    #In the '''General '''tab, '''System Defaults''' at the bottom, checkmark the option: "'''Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup'''" and then click the "''Check Now''" button.<br><br>
    #Click OK, close Firefox and then restart it again.
    You should now have a mailto: option in the Applications panel.

  • Links are not working...

    I recently created a wedding website for my wedding videos and after I upload my site the buttons/links at the top of the page are not working... I had my site all laid out at one point and everything was fine. But using the templates I was having issues moving picture placeholders so I recreated my pages from a blank page in that template category. After I recreated my pages i uploaded my page and the buttons dont work... Any ideas? Here is the URL for my site.
    www.bellsandbridesfilms.com
    ANy advice would be appreciated.

    Your links are working for me: Welcome/Packages/Montage/Samples/Contact. Clear your browser's cache, quit the browser and restart it and enter your URL again. If that doesn't help, post back with the specific page and link that's not working.
    By the way, browsers convert spaces in page names to “%20.” To avoid these symbols, replace the spaces by an underscore when the page name or site name includes a space. For example, here:
    http://www.bellsandbridesfilms.com/Bells%20and%20Brides%20Films.html
    to:
    http://www.bellsandbridesfilms.com/Bellsand_BridesFilms.html

  • Start menu Pins and Links are not working

    Hi,
    after upgrade to Build 10061 the start menu links and pins to classic win32 apps are not working anymore. If i click, for example VLC Player, nothing happens. Also if i pin VLC Player again to start menu nothing happens if i click on it. Only through search
    and direct explorer access it works as expected.
    Are you experiencing the same issue or can you help me out?
    Thanks.

  • Links are not working well, some do and other don't!

    Because I want to have url's like www.name.nl/products/productx.html, www.name.nl/organization/personal.html  etc. I made for each map a different little website.
    I made the menu manually and for each menu item I made links like: http://www.name.nl/products/productx.html.
    So I made on the ftp maps of the different menu items like ;huidaandoeningen, products, behandelingen, contact, etc.
    Now the site is online but it's not going well...
    Some links are correct like http://www.htcbreda.nl/huidaandoeningen/acne.html
    All other menu items below 'Huidaandoeningen' is working well but links below 'Behandelingen' are nog working.
    If you try you also see another url address then I gave for instance:
    The requested URL /acnebehandeling.html was not found on this server. This while a give it the name http://www.htcbreda.nl/behandelingen/acnebehandeling.html
    Als for all the menu items below 'Products' and also the menu items below in the big blue bar on the homepage....
    I hope someone can help me. I'm trying to resolve this for a week now and I cannot figure out what is going wrong. Frustrating....

    The Yahoo! Toolbar extension has been reported to cause this issue.

  • Links are not working in Prototype Fisheye

    I saw that there was another thread about this same issue but unfortunalety the response did not work for me!  Any suggestions on how to get the links to work? I added the url to the href tag within the img tag but the links don't work. example:
           <img src= "PrototypeFishEye/images/forms.png" href="forms.html" title="Forms" alt="Forms"/>
    I have also tried simply adding <a href></a> around each image and that does NOT work either. example:
    <a href="forms.html"><img src= "PrototypeFishEye/images/forms.png" href="forms.html" title="Forms" alt="Forms"/></a>
    OR
    <a href="forms.html"><img src= "PrototypeFishEye/images/forms.png" href="#" title="Forms" alt="Forms"/></a>
    OR
    <a href="forms.html"><img src= "PrototypeFishEye/images/forms.png"  title="Forms" alt="Forms"/></a>
    HELP!
    Thanks

    I've actually fixed it since then and the links are working. I had to put an if then else statement in for IE and now it's working in Chrome, FF, and IE. I totally agree with you on IE. This is what I ended up with on the javascript:
    <script type='text/javascript'>
              var PrototypeFishEye = function(e){
                  var ele = Event.element(e);
                        window.location = ele.getAttribute("href");
              var PrototypeFishEye = new FishEyeToolBar("PrototypeFishEye", { createSub : function(ele, options){
                        return new FishEyeItemDown(ele, options);
    //          var rightEye = new FishEyeToolBar("fishEyeBottom");
    //          rightEye.addEventListener("itemClick", PrototypeFishEyelinkRelay);
              PrototypeFishEye.addEventListener("itemClick", PrototypeFishEye);
    </script>
    I'm working from a server address at the moment, so I've taken out the actual address, but IE would not recognize the links with a slash '/' in front of the file name, but Firefox wouldn't recognize it without it. So here's what I did:
    <!-- script for fisheye and general css -->
    <script src="/../PrototypeFishEye/includes/prototype.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="/../PrototypeFishEye/includes/effects.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="/../PrototypeFishEye/includes/EventDispatcher.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="/../PrototypeFishEye/includes/FishEye.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <!-- IE needs to use a different scriptpath to work -->
    <!--[if lte IE 9]>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="S:/../includes/prototype.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="S:/../PrototypeFishEye/includes/effects.js"></script>
    <script src="S:/../PrototypeFishEye/includes/EventDispatcher.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    <script src="S:/../PrototypeFishEye/includes/FishEye.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

  • My links are not working

    1st Q: I am new at this and just starting. However, all my hyperlinks work when I am in iweb but after publishing only half are working and the other half don't when it is live. I go back to double check if it is link wrong but again it works when not live and in iweb , but on the url it is a crap shoot. Does anyone know why?
    2nd Q: why is my url so long and not just www.web.mac.com/flushdesignsas it says on iweb support, it only opens from the "visit" in iweb or with the huge url
    http://web.mac.com/flushdesigns/iWeb/Flush%20designs/home.html.
    maybe some one can go on it and see what I am talking about with the links the home mainly does not work.(you should be able to click on "flush designs" to bring you home
    I have more issues with it but this is the worst and enough for now.
    thanks

    Amazing, when I turned off the font Mona Lisa, most
    of the body text on some of the pages turns into my
    default font Helvetica.
    And having spaces in a link/url can cause a link not
    to work. I've seen it happen a zillion times. Doesn't
    matter if there is a %20. It will cause a broken link.
    I noticed that when I looked at my site at my sisters on her Dell. Half of the words stayed as mona lisa while others changed to what looked like futura or something like that. Weird.
    Now when I change the site name to one word to get rid of the %20 it wont publish. So I changed it back... but I will try again.
    thanks

  • Links are not working with Firefox and some other browsers

    Hello,
    On my site (iWeb08) I have some pictures of pieces of text as a link to another page of website.. but with some browsers the links doesn't work.
    Also de links are very difficult to activate on the site.. What I mean is when you want to click the link.. you have to search with the cursor in stead of stand on the word and click to activate..
    (hope that you understand what I mean, but my English is a bit difficult in English for me...)
    Regards,
    Jose

    Jose,
    It might be good to give us the link to your site so we can see for ourselves what is happening.

  • Some links are not working

    Could someone please look at the code on this page.  The Home link and the Prices link work in the table on the left but the other links in that table do not work.  I can't figure out what is wrong, perhaps another set of eyes can spot it.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Judy B

    Remove this from your code -
    <div id="Layer1" style="position:absolute; width:331px; height:270px; z-index:1; left: 383px; top: 204px;"></div>
    You don't need it, and it's masking those links that "don't work" so that the hover never kicks in.
