Hyperlinks changing

This has happened twice to the same set of links. I have a page with large number of links to .pdf files. Links will work for a few days and then stop. When I look at the hyperlinks the link to file name has changed from xx.pdf to xx,pdf. The period has changed to a comma. When I change it back to a period the link works. This happens to just the same small set 10% of the links on the page.
Any ideas what is causing this? All the links are basically going to the same area on the server just different folders.

So there's something in the subsequent edits and publishing that's causing the change. Are you using a Web Safe Font?

  • Color of Hyperlink Changes When I Convert a Document Created in Pages to a PDF

    I am currently using Pages 09 to design an eBook.  When I convert my Pages document to a PDF some of the hyperlinks change colors from medium to dark blue.  I am currenlty using the latest version of Adobe Reader (9.46).  I have been to Apple store to try and address this issue, but they can not correct it.  If I open the document in Preview or Safari, it works fine.  There is only a problem when I open the document in Adobe Reader.  I would greatly appreciate your help in getting this fixed.  Does anyone know what the problem is here and how to fix it?  Thanks in advance for your help!

    I am currenlty using the latest version of Adobe Reader (9.46).
    The latest version of Adobe Reader is 10.1.1.

  • Word 2010 Network Path Hyperlinks change to Local C Drive

    Hi,
    I am having issues with Microsoft Word documents that have links in it to other documents. I'm not sure why but these hyperlinks change from their UNC path to a C path. For example
    \\server\folder\document.pdf
    would change to
    C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Word\folder\document.pdf
    This happens to all links on that document. We have hundreds of documents and finding that they are doing this randomly which means all links need to be created again. We did not have this issue using Word 2003, or Word 2007. This has happened since upgrading
    to 2010 a few months ago.
    All the documents have been created years ago in Word 2003.
    I have looked everywhere and realize there are other topics similar however no answer has been found.
    Hopefully someone can help

    Hi Dave,
    This behavior is because that the link by default is saved as
    Relative Link, with relative link used, we are able to move the documents to wherever we need, and still keep the link works. As the disadvantageous, the link will no longer work if we actually need the link to be an absolut link.
    This especially happens when the linked document is saved in the same folder.
    To avoid such issue, we need to modify the following setting to use absolute link instead of relative links.
    To do this, use the following method.
    On the File menu, click Options.  
    Click Advanced.  
    Under General, click Web Options.  
    Click the Files tab.  
    Click to clear the Update links on save check box.  
    Click OK two times.
    For enterprise environment, we can modify the setting for multiple machines using group policy:
    Microsoft Office 2010 --> Tools |Options | General | Web Options... --> Files  --> Update links on save

  • Why does my hyperlink change to text in ES?

    I am trying to create a PDF form in LiveCycle ES. My goal is to have a company form that Employee A can fill out in Adobe Reader, save and post to our intranet site where Employee B can retrieve it. I want Employee A to be able to copy a Google map link and paste it into the form. The Google link will change with every form she fills out. Then Employee B can open the form in Reader, click on the link and go straight to the correct map.
    For the Google link, I have a text field in Rich Text. When I view the form in Preview, I am able to highlight the default text in the field ("click here"), highlight it, and right-click to insert the hyperlink. But as soon as I tab over to another field, the link changes to a non-clickable Google string of text.
    It doesn't matter whether I view the form in LC PReview, or whether I save it and do the Extend Features in Adobe Reader. The link does not stay a link. I have tried making the form a static form, a dynamic form, changed every text field object I could, but I get the same result.
    What am I missing?

    First thing is why are you using a Rich Text Field .....woudln't a regular field be enough? Secondly you are pasting a string that represents a link. The field onlt deals with a string and cannot actually link for you (it is a field not a link). You  could add code to the field that woudl perform the linking operation. On the click event of the field you coudl add code something like this:
    //check to see if the default string is present
    if (this.rawValue != "click here"){
         //we have a different string present
         xfa.host.gotoURL(this.rawValue)
    Make sense?

  • Hyperlinks change in Word doc to local drive

    I have an issue with with a Word document that has hyperlinks in it to other sharepoint sites.
    When I open Document1 from its orginial location in SharePoint Doc Library, it opens fine with all links working.
    When I goto a link on a SharePoint site in the same site collection that links to the same document in its original location the links change to
    file:///C:\User\usern_name\documents\...
    I am opening the document, not saving.
    Here is an article I found helps but this only solves the problem by configuring each machine that opens the file:  (not an ideal situation when you have 200,000 plus employees)

    Hi ,
    Please provide more information about your problem .
    1.      
    What is your  word version ? Word 2007 or Word 2010?
    2.      
    What do you mean by ‘goto a link on a SharePoint site in the same site collection that links to the same document in its original location the links change… ’
    ?How do you create the link on a different SharePoint site? By uploading the document to the site ?
    3.      
    How do you insert your hyperlinks .Just type them in or by insert>hyperlinks? If you insert a hyperlink by using insert>hyperlinks ,the address won’t change to
    a UNC path .You can view the address by right click on the hyperlink and choose ‘edit hyperlink’ .
    For more information about hyperlinks ,please refer to this site:

  • Why don't my hyperlinks change color?

    My hyperlinks don't change color when I try them in a browser or on my iWeb site. They all work fine but I don"t get that satisfying color change. I am using iWeb 06. Do I have to upgrade to 08?

    If it's not your taste it's unsatisfying and problematic to you which should be enough to justify a inquiry towards solution without option about what others think is unsatisfying or not to them.
    You posted about iWeb '06 here's a solution for said version.
    When you Publish from iWeb you get a .HTML file and a .CSS file for each page you've created.  The CSS is the styles for each of your pages and the color of the hyperlinks is a style you want to change.
    When you look at the CSS file opened in Text Edit it will have a section that looks like this:
    a {
    color: #453c3c;
    text-decoration: underline;
    a:visited {
    color: #666666;
    text-decoration: underline;
    a:hover {
    color: #000000;
    text-decoration: underline;
    You can change the alpha-numeric values for the regular, hover and visited behaviors of how the color changes for your links.
    Hope that helps!

  • Hyperlinks changing color

    Whenever I validate that links are pointing to the correct
    files by using the "Insert or Edit Hyperlink" button it changes the
    font color of my link when I exit that function. I am using a CSS
    and it is ignoring the colors that I have in there. Is there a way
    to prevent this?

    Two things about hyperlinks in the css file:
    Whichever link states you do not configure will often revert
    to the browser default.
    Your link styles (dynamic pseudo-classes) must appear in
    "LoVe HAte" order (
    Link,
    Visited,
    Hover,
    Active).
    a:link {
    a:visited {
    a:hover {
    a:active {
    } (a:active is rarely used, so it's usually just LVH)
    Good luck,

  • CRM "My Overdue Activities" hyperlink change

    Hi all,
    I would like to change the hyperlinks in the "My Overdue Activities" iView to go to a different application. So far, I've found that this is a Java iView, but I don't know where to edit it. Is there a way to get to the source code of this Java iView to modify it or do I need to recreate this iView in BSP or Web Dynpro?
    Thanks for your help.

  • Referenced pages in hyperlinks change by themselves in CS4

    Being extremely happy with my version of DW3, I took years before upgrading to CS4.
    Now, in CS4, when I change the hyperlinks on some of the text in my pages, then save the file, the links revert back to what they were before I made the change.
    For example:
    I have a menu with textual links. There are 7 links in this menu.
    I change the link for HOME to "index.html". Then I save the file (or it will even do this if I just navigate to another part of the page), and when I return to check the hyperlink for HOME, it has reverted back to the old link that I was trying to change it FROM.
    I changed the hyperlinks for several links in 3 different pages numerous times and this happens every time.
    Please help me understand what is happening and how I can make DW CS4 change these links and keep the changes.
    Thank you!
    You can see the page at http://tracybookmanphotography.com/colorado-springs-children-photography.html
    The links that will not save are
    1. CONTACT US in the 4th paragraph under the photos of the blonde boy
    2. 6 VITAL THINGS...
    3. In the small textual menu under the slideshow, HOME, SENIORS, THE BUZZ, CONTACT US
    None of these links will save the page reference that I need them to link to.
    -Tracy Bookman

    Now, in CS4, when I change the hyperlinks on some of the text in my pages, then save the file, the links revert back to what they were before I made the change.
    For example:
    I have a menu with textual links. There are 7 links in this menu.

    How are you updating the links? Browse for File icon, Point to File icon or typing them in (unlikely)?
    Long shot: If you're using the Browse for File button in the Property Inspector (PI) then this is a known bug in CS4.
    In essence, you think you're navigating to the new link using Browse for File but Dreamweaver does not 'take' the new link (the Link field in the PI does not update) when you click on it.
    You can still use the Browse for File button(s) in CS4.
    The workaround is to use the Browse for file button, then first select a file OTHER THAN the one you want, then immediately select the file you want after that and hit OK (or enter, or doubleclick the file). Dreamweaver will now accept your file selection and update to the new link.
    Alternatively, first browse up or down the folder structure to another directory then back to the one you want which seems to wake up the Link update mechanism which then works correctly.

    This issue is fixed in CS5 but was never patched in CS4.
    Point to File or typing works OK.

  • Problem - Hyperlinks change on export to PDF

    Working in Indesign 7.0.3 and Snow Leopard 10.6.5
    I have been asked to design a publication that will include hyperlinks to other files (PDFs and Word documents) on the client’s network.
    The client has supplied as the source a Word document with hyperlinks that start with:
    \\Nwfileprintvm\vol1\shared\...  and so on which (I presume) goes to a document on their network.
    When I import the Word document into InDesign, the hyperlinks come in the same way. I have set up the hyperlinks as “Shared Destination” links, as there will be several separate links to the same destination in the InDesign document.
    However, when I export the InDesign document to its final form as a PDF, the hyperlinks in the PDF are somehow automatically prefaced with a location on MY local hard drive (my working folder for the document). They become:
    File:///Volumes/LaCie750/… and so on until they pick up the rest of the file path starting with \\Nwfileprintvm … as above.
    I am exporting using [Smallest file size] since the PDF will be viewed on screen, and with “Include Hyperlinks” ticked.
    So, if I deliver this PDF to the client, it looks like it will try to link back to my hard drive, rather than their network drive.
    What am I doing wrong? How can I export a PDF where the links point to the client’s network rather than my local drive?

    Yes, the hyperlink is defined correctly, without the preceding code linking to my hard drive.
    In the hyperlink panel the full path is:
    \\Nwfileprintvm\vol1\shared\Business Development\Program Support\Ten things.doc
    When I export to PDF, the link becomes:
    file:///Volumes/LaCie%20750/Work%20in%20progress/New%20work/Project%209999%20NewProject/\\ Nwfileprintvm\vol1\shared\Business Development\Program Support\Ten things.doc

  • Hyperlink changed in Mail

    I have web pages created in iWeb.
    When I paste the following hyperlink...
    http://web.mac.com/drdocument/iWeb/Via%20Media%20Spokane/Welcome.html
    ...the link appears correctly in the Mail message, underlined, ready to click.
    However, when clicked the link has characters added and becomes...
    http://web.mac.com/drdocument/iWeb/Via%2520Media%2520Spokane/Welcome.html
    The characters "25" are added following the percent signs, so I get the "page not found" window.
    Anyone else had this problem? Ideas why it happens? Any workarounds or fixes?
    Thanks,

    "...Comments: Blank Spaces
    A second pitfall in Web addressing is associated with the fact that different systems deal with blank spaces in file or directory names in different ways. For example, Windows file names can have blank spaces, but Unix systems generally use blank spaces as separators between names. Thus, a filename July Budget Reports is a perfectly acceptable filename for Windows, but is a bad choice for a Unix system because it will interpret this filename as July because of the trailing blank space unless special actions are taken. (For example, always enclosing the entire filename in double quotes would cause a Unix system to construe the blank spaces as part of the file name.)
    The common ways that Unix systems name such files without employing blank spaces is to use upper case letters to start words (with no blanks between words), or to use underlines or dashes to indicate where blank spaces would be. For example,
    JulyBudgetReports
    JulyBudgetReports
    July-Budget-Reports
    would all be acceptable Unix filenames.
    Words to the Wise
    Now if you are a Windows user developing your own material for the Web, you probably would like to ignore these "peculiarities" with Unix systems concerning case sensitivity and blank spaces. Unfortunately, you cannot because most of the servers on the Internet use Unix operating systems, and indeed the Internet itself largely developed in a Unix environment. This has two consequences:
    Because of the Web's Unix heritage, URL addresses generally cannot contain blank spaces (if blank spaces are required they must be inserted with special character sequences).
    If your Web material is served from a Unix server, the case of filenames and directories will matter.
    Therefore, if you are going to be developing material for the Web, we suggest strongly that you immediately get into the habit of (1) assuming case sensitivity in all your filenames, and (2) not using blank spaces in any filenames."

  • Text Hyperlink changes colors--how to change it?

  • Hyperlink changes after upload

    Hi,
    I've added a 'deep link' from Groupon to a manual menu. The links all work fine but when i upload and test the site, all the links just go back to the Groupon main page. Even when I try to add a link to, say, their FAQ page, it still sends back top the home page.
    Any ideas?

    I've tried making it php by using dreamweaver (not very exoperienced at that), but doesn't seem to help either.

  • Hyperlink in PDF changed

    the Rev is adobe reader x 10.1.4,
    in the company internal website,after I downloaded some  PDF files ,the hyperlinks indise the files are all pointed to my PC disk, why not the website address like before?

    the process was:
    1.At the first times,I open the PDF files in the company websites online,
    it was ok, what the hyperlink pointed was another website address which
    located a PDF file.
    2.After I saved some PDF file which I opened online to my local disk ,
    someday, when I wanted to open a hyperlink from a PDF file online ,it can't
    be realized ,like what I say at the beginning.
    my question is :
    why it changed,normally,the PDF embeded in the website can't be changed
    with anything.
    why did the hyperlink change,when I opened the PDF file ?

  • Hyperlinks don't change color

    Tod ~ Yes, you would have to upgrade to iWeb 2 in iLife '08. Then in Inspector's Link tab, you'll have a Format tab via which you can specify the colors of your hyperlinks. This video tutorial shows that Format tab, although its use is not demonstrated:
