How to launch map application from google map link

Hello,
I am looking to find a way to have the map application on an iphone launch when someone opens this link from a website on their phone:

It only seems to open the map in safari and I can't find anything about how to change this by searching the web. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

I do not see the parameters you are using in the list of supported parameters. Can you express that same position using the supported parameters?

How to launch an application from java?

Hi,
Would anybody please help me this. I need to launch a new desktop application from my java app but I don't know how. For example, when user clicks on a "Edit" button from my java app, my app needs to launch NOTEPAD.EXE to allow user starts editing.
Thanks a lot.
Hung.

try something like this for your button's action method:
        String[] cmd = {"notepad"};
Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
        try {
            Process pro = rt.exec(cmd);
            pro.waitFor(); // wait until it's done executing
            System.out.println("Process exit code is: " + pro.exitValue());
        }catch(IOException ioe) {
            System.err.println("IOException -> " + ioe);
        } catch(InterruptedException ie){
            System.err.println("InterruptedException: " + ie);
        }

So as your query :
The data will be fetched from website and it reach to
mobileimplicates many possibilities.
Well if u just want to view the website contents on your mobile then open the web browser in your mobile and open the desired web site, or u can use opera mini for this if your phone supports this.
And if u want to fetch the contents of some site to your application, use GCF api.
As a starter hope this will help u : http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/library/j-j2me4/#N10102

How to launch an app from Java in Mac OSX?

I would like to launch another application from my Java code which will run on OS X. Doesn anyone know how to do this? I think it involves the "Runtime.getRuntime.exec()" method, but I'm not sure how to tell it which application to launch.
Thanks

I dont know about OSX but i can give you a generalized
solution. In all OS's there will be a way to get to
command prompt. It is not really true: MacOS is one noticeable exception! Version 9, like every previous one, was completely extraneous to the notion of "command prompt", because the Macintosh, since its origin to nowadays, has been a "fanatically" User-Centric system: everything is iconic. A side effect of this approach is that MacOS was a pretty hard platform for low-level developers...
In MacOSX things have dramatically changed: this OS is a powerful Unix-like one, with the beautiful dress that only a Mac can wear: and finally, all you Mac users, here it is: the shell!
Of course, in MacOSX (and in MacOS "classic" too) there are paths and executable files.
MacOS1-9 file-system was a very peculiar one: resource fork and data fork for every file, ":" as path components separator (but what "common" user has ever seen a Macintosh path?) and so on.
MacOSX will use an Unix-like filesystem, I guess (I'm not a Mac user, I like every OS for its beauties - and therefore dislike Microsoft products even if often they give me bread).
But the key question is: how do I tell the runtime which file it has to execute?
Fortunately, every modern SO I know adopts a hyerarchical organization of its files. So, indipendently of what is considered the "root" ("C:\", "/" or whatever else), you can "trace" a relative path from your current path (if you use an Unix or URL idiom, "./") and the file you want to reach.
So, if your java app ("JavaApp.class") is placed in a folder called "MyJavaApp", nested in another folder called "Programs" that you see when you click on the "MacHD" icon, and you can manually launch the Mac app you're interested in clicking on an icon called "MyMacApp Program", placed in a folder called "MyMacApp", nested in another folder called "Programs" that you see when you click on the "MacHD" icon (it's the same folder we said before :-) ), using Unix or URL sintax we have that:
your java application is at: [...]/MacHD/Programs/MyJavaApp/JavaApp.class
the Mac application is at:
[...]/MacHD/Programs/MyMacApp/MyMacApp Program
The relative path from the former to the latter is, therefore:
../MyMacApp/MyMacApp
where two dots ("..") are the symbol for "parent folder".
If the situation is similar to above, the code to launch MyMacApp should be something like this:
import java.io.File;
File currentDir=new File("");
//supposing that double dot (..) is the symbol for "parent folder"
Runtime.getRuntime(
     new File(currentDir,".."
     +File.separator
     +"MyMacApp"
     +File.separator
     +"MyMacApp Program"
     ).getAbsolutePath()
in a more portable fashion - if you're not sure ".." works
(? who cares? we're launching a native app :-)) )
Runtime.getRuntime(
     new File(currentDir.getParent(),
     "MyMacApp"
     +File.separator
     +"MyMacApp Program"
     ).getAbsolutePath()
);Hope it works... good work!

Launching external applications from web start

Hi!
I am currently working on a management system and I need to launch other management systems from my Java Web Start application. The other systems are either based on web applications (URLs), telnet - needs to set up a telnet session, or running shell scripts or batch files.
URLs are ok. I am using Desktop.browse in Java 1.6 or I can use BasicService.showDocument in javax.jnlp API.
My application may run on both windows and linux (ie its launched from the browser). It interacts with a java app on a linux server over RMI.
How can I lauch a telnet session from my client app?
Do I have to include apache commons.net and create a telnet module in my app or can i lauch c:\windows\system32\telnet.exe in windows (if my app is lauched on win) and /usr/kerberos/bin/telnet (if my app is lauched in Linux)?
How can I launch an external .exe application in window and how can I launch any shell script or program in Linux?
(same as how do i lauch telnet)
As long as the user is prompted I can see no risk of denying these kind of things so I hope and think that this should be possible!
PS. I have managed to do it by using Runtime.exec() when running as a non JWS application, but I cannot do it when running as JWS:
java.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission <<ALL FILES>> execute)I dont want to sign the application either. The reason for choosing webstart was to not have to renew certificates at our customers.
Please help.
Thanks for taking interest and reading this.. and I hope that someone has some helpful answers for me :)

How do I save pages from my website in PDF, and prove the image was capture on a given date?

How do I save pages from my website, [link removed] into a PDF file, with proof of the date the pdf file was created on? I need to display the content of each unique url of my site in PDF format for compliance purposes, and prove the image was taken from a given date. Anyone can help that would be great.

Impossible to do with Reader. If you own Acrobat and use Create PDF from Webpage. The document will have a creation date. If you then sign the pdf on the date of creation, you have proof of when the document was created and proof that the document wasn’t altered since signed.

I am a new iPad user and cannot figure out how to copy and paste from a website to pages. Any insight?

I am a new iPad user. I cannot figure out how to copy and paste from a website to a pages document, and vice versa. Any ideas?

Long press on the text you would like to select (tapping and holding) and then release after the magnifying glass shows up. This will select a single word. Then use the blue dots and drag them to select a region of test. Then press "copy". Open pages, and long press and release where you would like to paste. Then select "paste". That should paste the text.
If the text doesn't select within the browser, it might be an uncopyable format. Like if the text was within an image, naturally you would be unable to select it. The only thing to do there is long press the image and selecting "save image", adding it to your camera roll. Then you could insert the image within pages.

How do I stop applications from coming up when I power up my computer. If this were a Windows system I would be able to take the app out of the start up folder. On the Mac I don't know how.

How do I stop applications from coming up when I power up my computer. If this were a Windows system I would be able to take the app out of the start up folder. On the Mac I don't know how.

The app (Excel) is in the dock. When I left click on it there is no check next to open at login.
Lets go back to the beginning when I installed ms office both word and excel were in the dock. then one day excel dissapeared. I put it back in the dock and that is when it started opening during login. There is only one X showing in the dock.
Maybe I have little gremlins.
