FTP link in a html page isn't working in Safari 4.0.5 - any ideas?

Hi all,
One of my colleagues/clients has recently set up an ftp server so that customers can upload their files for printing using a username & password. I was asked to update the website I designed for them, by adding a small link at the bottom of the index page titled 'customer login', that directs customers to the server. Having done this I then found that the link doesn't work in Safari? It's fine in Firefox & IE.
If however you hover over the link & right click with your mouse to select 'Open Link In A new Window' it works as it should. I've tried making the link load in a new window & as a pop up window using javascript, but neither works.
I searched these discussions & found a similar post to this question from 2008, in which the response was 'Safari does not currently support links to ftp in this way'. Surely this issue has been resolved?
Any advice appreciated - thanks.

This is the link to the website I am referring to http://www.d-p-i.co.uk/

When I send an email in Outlook 2010 I'm getting a blank HTML page tab showing up on my Firefox browser. Any ideas?

I send an email in Outlook 2010 and I'm getting a blank page tab in Firefox with this address in the browser. The page says ''There are no items to show in this view''
file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/gkoch/Local%20Settings/Temporary%20Internet%20Files/%7B3CC4AC09-DE60-47D1-A08A-FE864958E679%7D/%7B050D6FB1-4E21-4ACC-9168-755D8BFCC2EF%7D.html
This is occurring with Outlook. So is in that program or some link with Firefox

If you are talking about your sender name (the one that appears on the From line when you compose an email) rather than your @icloud.com email address, to change it on your iOS device, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars...tap iCloud under Accounts, tap your iCloud account at the top of the next screen, tap Mail at the bottom of the next screen, then enter the name you want to use in the Name field at the top. Also go to icloud.com, sign into your account, open Mail, click the gear shaped icon on the bottom left and choose Preferences, go to the Accounts tab and enter the name you want to use in the Full Name field and click Done.

Connected to Wifi but Internet still isn't working and Safari can't open any pages?

I'm able to connect to Wi-Fi networks, but my Internet is still not opening web pages and none of my applications that require Internet are working. Is this a problem with my computer or is there something I can do to fix it?

Then you are probably not actually connected. Go to Settings/Wi-Fi and tap the arrow to the right of the network that you think you are connected to. If the IP is 169..., then no you are not really connected, the iPad timed out and self-asigned the IP when it did not receive one from your router in a timely manner.
Try restarting/resetting the router, reset it to its factory settings and even check to see if there is new firmware for the router.

How to open an Applet from a text link in a HTML Page

Hi There
How to open an Applet from a text link
in a HTML page
For example I have a HyperLink "Open Applet"
When a user clicks that link i want to open a
Applet in a AWT Window.
How can i do this
Will any one help me?
-Ramya

u can use javascript for that
<SCRIPT language="javascript">
function loadAppNow() {
document.write("<APPLET ......></APPLET>")
</SCRIPT>
LoadApplet
this will overwrite the applet on current window
There are many good ways other than document.write to open in same window. I don't remember the syntax right now.
Plz. refer to javascript tutorial for that.
even you can insert the applet while retaining previous contents. its quite easy actually.

Firefox froze up. So I removed from computer and reloaded. If I close Firefox, can't restart by clicking on the icon. Have to end process in Task Manager. It then starts. Some links on some web pages won't work.

Hi,
As I say in the question I don't know what happened but Firefox just stopped operating and then became erratic. So I removed the firefox programme from my computer and reloaded Firefox.
It now runs normally but I can't run Firefox on two tabs, only one, and if I close it down during a session I can't reopen it using the desk top icon. I go to task manager, processes, and end process for Firefox - then I can start it using the icon on the desktop.
I have also noticed that some links on a web page won't work - javascript is involved.
Thanks for your herlp,
Mike FD

It sounds like you are getting in a hurry.
If you force Firefox to close in a hurry, then it won't normally start until you re-start the computer. There are ways around this, but I'm not going to go into them right now.
None-force way to close Firefox down: Close the program and wait. Do something else. Firefox appears as if it is closed, but it's not. Firefox cleans out cookies and it's cache after you close it. That takes a few minutes. You can't restart it while it's doing house cleaning.
After it is done, then you can restart Firefox normally. You can watch it in the Task Manager.
The same applies if you are installing javascript. You have to wait a few minutes.
As for running it with multiple tabs, I usually have 5 or 6, or more, tabs open at a time. Have no idea what the problem is there. Firefox needs special permission by use of a pop-up option to close with multiple tabs open.

Safari status bar disappears. I have tried clicking on show status bar, under the View tab and it will only appear when I move the cursor to the top of the screen. I can not minimize the open page, only full screen or close the browser. Any idea how the rectify this issue?

One enters and exits full-screen with control+command+F keys. This is on the View menu in Safari. Optionally, the green traffic light in your browser title bar, if you roll over it, has the full-screen control it it. While in full-screen mode with Safari, moving your mouse pointer virtually up, and off-screen reveals the Safari title bar again, and you can click the green traffic light to exit full-screen mode.
You can hide/show the status bar by simply typing command+/. This too, is on the Safari View menu. and in 10.10.1 — it works reliably for me.

As with previous posts this is usually a DHCP issue and occurs frequently especially with routers connected to Cable Modems or those Micro-Cell towers.
Unplug all Routers, AirPorts (or other off brand Wi-Fi broadcast units) and any other Wireless broadcast unit that might provide you with a WDS (often other AirPorts feeding off the signal of the AirPort closest to Cable/DSL Modem) and best to totally power down the Unit affected; lastly either hold a reset button on Cable/DSL modem for 30-45 seconds or actually power it down if an option (not suppose to power down Cable Modems that have Telephony for some odd never completely explained to me reason).
Let Cable/DSL Modem re-boot till 'all green lights'. Then power up each device involved in order from closest to farthest waiting each time for completion of initiation. Micro-cell towers can take 10 minutes to completely re-boot and you must wait for across the board green lights in my experience. Even WDS can add a few minutes till all green on mother AirPort unit.
Only NOW may you re-start the offending device and see if it will connect. Works about 99% of the time!

I tried everything to get my Safari 3.1.1 to work on my Mac Pro computer (OS X 10.5.2) - then I found the solution for my Mac accidentally - it was due to Intego Net Barrier X4 that I had installed on my computer.
What I did was to upgrade to NetBarrier X5 and, after installation, I deleted the old intruder Stop List under NetBarroer's 'Antivandal' Stop List button. Now I can visit all the sites that previously did not open in Safari 3.1.1. However, I am not sure whether it was the upgrade or just deleting the intruder stop lists that did the trick.
So, before you upgrade to Intego NetBarrier X5, try and delete the stop lists under the antivandal button first in your existing NetBarrier X4. Highlight the intruder list (click on the first intruder at the top of the list and, while holding down the shift key, click on the last intruder on the list, thus selecting all of them), and then press the 'minus' button below the list. This will remove all the intruder items in the stop list. Restart your computer, open up Safari and now check if you can access sites previously inaccessible by Safari. If not, upgrade to NetBarrier X5 and it should work. Well at least in my case.

How to go to anchor html link from external html page in JEditorPane

Hi people,
I've been trying to jump to an anchor link from an external html page in JEditorPane, and I cannot get it working, I'm sure it can be done somehow...
The HTML page has a link like:
Hello
and this is loaded into JEditorPane ok.
The HyperlinkListener implementation:
public void hyperlinkUpdate( HyperlinkEvent e )
try {
if ( e.getEventType() == HyperlinkEvent.EventType.ACTIVATED )
editorPane_.setPage( getClass().getResource(
MyDialog.this.getBaseURL().concat( e.getURL().getFile().substring(
e.getURL().getFile().lastIndexOf( "/" ) + 1 ) ) ) );
if ( e.getURL().getRef() != null )
editorPane_.scrollToReference( e.getURL().getRef() );
else return;
} catch ( IOException ioe ) { ioe.printStackTrace(); }
This code loads the new html file ok, but it does not scroll to the anchor. The MyDialog.this.getBaseURL() just returns something like com.name.package, I construct the URL by using this base url and the name of the html file to open.
ANy help, thanks

he! I'm not alone in my desperation. Take a look at my problem:
I've got a JEditorPane (not editable) inside a JFrame. The JEditorPane is loaded with the HTML text and all the links to anchors are working properly when I click on them.
BUT
If I try to go to an anchor from outside this JFrame I can see how the JEditorPane scrolls to the right anchor and suddenly it scrolls back to the place where the caret was located!!!
The "funny thing" is that my code is working in jdk1.3.1 but this is happening in jdk1.4.2. Is it a bug?!?!?!
How could I figure out what position I have to set the caret to for every anchor in order to get the scroll working correctly???
My implementation of hyperlinkUpdate (working properly, here isn't the problem):
   jEditorPane.addHyperlinkListener(new HyperlinkListener() {
      public void hyperlinkUpdate(HyperlinkEvent e) {
        if (e.getEventType() == HyperlinkEvent.EventType.ACTIVATED) {
          MiEditorPane src = (MiEditorPane)e.getSource();
          src.goToAnchor(e.getDescription().substring(1));
    });My object jEditorPane is an instance of this class:
class MiEditorPane extends JEditorPane {
    MiEditorPane() {
      super();
    public void goToAnchor(String anchor) {
      super.scrollToReference(anchor);
}And this is the method I call from outside the JFrame containing the JEditorPane:
public void goToAnchor(String anchor) {
     jEditorPane.goToAnchor(anchor);
}Any help greatly appreciated ...

Can I alter the properties of an individual link on a HTML page without changing the other links?

Hi there,
I have a contact page created in Dreamweaver and have created an email link to launch Outlook when clicked on. However, all the links in my design have been set a certain way, i.e. white text knocked out of darker background. My email link however, is on white background so you can't see it against the white. I want to go in and simply change the color property of the email link without changing the other link colours on the page. I've tried but without luck. Is this possible to do?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello and thank you for your answer. I'm still a little confuse though.
My existing HTML looks like this:
<p><a href="[email protected]">[email protected]</a><br />
My link preferences are for the who page and are at the top and look like this:
a:link {
    color: #FFFFFF;
    text-decoration: none;
a:visited {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #FFFFFF;
a:hover {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #CCCCCC;
a:active {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #CCCCCC;
.style2 {font-size: 14.5px}
.style3 {color: #FFFFFF}
Where exactly should I insert the new link ID that you suggested <a id="special_colors" href="url...">link text</a>
Also, where exactly should I place the following in relation to the CSS document
a#special_colors:link {color: red;}
> a#special_colors:hover {color: green;}
Sorry but this is all quite new to me. Thank you for your patience and help.

Having trouble linking to an html page in Flash.

Hello,
I have been using Flash for a short while and have just learned how to create a rotating banner. At this point my problem is adding a hotspot or a link from each image highlighted in the Flash movie. Can anyone take a look at my flash file and provide me with an example of actionscript that allows each image in the slideshow to link to a different page within my site. A dummy link is /Shop_DVDs.html or a full url could be www.bikepaparazzi.com. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
I've attached the Flash files.

It appears that I am still doing something wrong. I've attached the flash, but here is the code based on my understanding of how to update it:
import flash.net.URLRequest;
import flash.net.navigateToURL;
dvds.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate1);
var nav1:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate1(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav1),"_self");
proconvention.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate2);
var nav2:String="http://proconvention.com"; navigate2(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav2),"_self");
advertise.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate3);
var nav3:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate3(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav3),"_self");
tee.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate4);
var nav4:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate4(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav4),"_self");
proconvention.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,navigate5);
var nav5:String="http://bikepaparazzi.com"; navigate5(e:MouseEvent):void {
function
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(nav5),"_self");

Hi,
I think someone that has access to a server needs to help out on this - I wouldn't be able to do that until next week.
On other http servers that I use, there's an htdocs folder where you can put files that the server can access. Otherwise, you could upload the file into your application and open it in a new window?
