Hyperlinks to web pages don't work in Captivate 7 or 8

When I design hyperlinks to web pages work but once published they don't. How do i get hyperlinks to web pages to work in Captivate 7 or 8

I should have read that more closely.
It doesn't seem to apply. The only reason that would matter is if you were running the SWF-output from Captivate locally.
ALWAYS test your product from the web to avoid any such security issues.
But yes, if you're putting the published file on a local/network drive, then that security change will need to be applied and, yes, for every computer that accesses the file.
You definitely want to distribute from an HTTP location.
I did hope the first part of that article would help. They're not difficult to setup once you find the option. Just highlight some text and right-click to setup the hyperlink...right?

My web page don't work on a Pc

Hey m8 all the images in my web page dissapear in a pc computer... Help!

What is your url?

After upgrading to Mac OS Lion, even after installing Java manually, some web pages don't download and appear blank whereas Firefox works

After upgrading to Mac OS Lion, even after installing Java manually, some web pages don't download and appear blank whereas Firefox and Opera work. Can someone help?

Might be a third party Safari addon that was compatible with Snow Leopard but not Lion that's preventing pages to load. That add on may not have any effect on the other browsers, just Safari.
Read here > Safari: Unsupported third-party add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Also, if you have Little Snitch or Peer Guardian or anti virus sofware installed on your Mac, that might prevent pages to load also.

PDF hyperlink to web page displays web page behind PDF

We have a development which generates a PDF including hyperlinks to web pages. We issue the PDF out as an attachment and users then read the PDF an click on the link.
The problem we are experiencing is that some users have the web page fire up behind the PDF. So if they have Acrobat Reader in maximised mode and then click on the link the resulting web page doesn't get focus and so they don't see it (very frustrating). This behaviour only occurs on some PC clients but we can't nail what makes it display the page (or not).
We are using a standard desktop of min config Windows 2000 upwards, IE6 up, Acrobat Reader 7.0 up (but we also get the same thing happen on 7.1.0 on some desktops).
Can anyone point us to the component controlling this.
Regards, Mark

The code to do it is:
app.launchURL("http://www.google.com", true);
But keep in mind it's not going to work if the PDF file is opened in non-Adobe PDF viewers.

How do you HYPERLINK a web page address to an EXCEL document in Firefox like is possible in Explorer

How do you HYPERLINK a web page address to an EXCEL document in Firefox like is possible in Explorer?

When you follow a hyperlink in Excel, usually it should open in your default browser. You shouldn't have to do anything special in Excel to create the link when Firefox is your default browser compared with IE. However, the Insert Hyperlink dialog might work differently. I think it might be able to automatically pre-populate a URL from IE, while in Firefox, you need to copy the URL from Firefox's address bar and paste it into the Insert Link dialog.

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.

Hyperlinks to folder locations don't work

Hello,
I'm having trouble creating functioning hyperlinks to folder locations on local or network drives. I've tried this both in InDesign CS3 and InDesign CS1 on Windows XP.
I select the text, create new hyperlink, choose 'URL' as Type, then paste the filepath into the URL box (e.g. D:\). If my text tool is within the hyperlink text of the InDesign document, then I click on 'Go to hyperlink destination', it will open a new Windows Explorer window with the correct destination. If I export to PDF, however (making sure to check 'Bookmarks' and 'Hyperlinks' to be included), these hyperlinks to local or network drives don't work. I get errors like 'Cannot find 'd:%5C'. Make sure the path or Internet address is correct'.
The other hyperlinks to web addresses seem to work fine. Does anybody have ideas on this?

How do i fix my printer when it won't show the print preview for web pages? it worked and now not.

how do i fix my printer when it won't show the print preview for web pages? it worked for a while and now it doesn't. printer is an hp officejet 7310 all-in-one.

I would suspect this is a hardware issue. The rollers are probably having issues picking up the relatively smooth thick media. You might have better results be cleaning the paper pickup rollers with a damp paper towel. Also make sure the paper is snugly loaded and the paper guides have been correctly positioned.

A few of my pages don't work with Firefox nor Chrome. How do I fix this?

I created my website from scratch (enjoyaquatics.com) but unfortunately a few of my pages don't work with Firefox nor Chrome. How do I fix this?
Everything looks and works GREAT on Safari but not Firefox, Chrome, nor Internet Explorer.

The pages look fine in FF and Chrome on my Mac. Didn't check with Win XP.
If you use MSIE on a Mac, know that it became obsolete in 2003.
I noticed what I call wobbly text on your pages. Here's the solution :

My eBay pages don't work properly. There are parts missing. The symbols on the My eBay page have gone. The £ paid sign, checkout, feedback, and probably more. I can't list an item as the submit button has disappeared. It all works fine on IE.

It all works fine on IE. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but still the same.
How can I regain my missing bits please.

Can you attach a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screenshot screenshot]?
Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed the maximum file size (1 MB).
See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Websites_look_wrong
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

Pre+ help pages don't work

Does anybody know why the Palm Pre+ help page don't work? Everytime I ask for help on ANY subject all I get is a message that reads "Failed to load requested page"
I guess the palm is trying to load a page from the internet, but the server can't provide/find it. This implies that the problem is probably at HP's end

Search page don't work after moving VO under another VO (by creating VL)

Hi, all! I need Your help and explaining... So, please let me discuss my problem.
I had my Search page. In my search page I search for records using APasesDati VO. On day I deside to move APasesDati VO under LVAIKolekcijaDati VO (created 1 to 1 VL). Now APasesDati VO is child of LVAIKolekcijaDati VO. And my search page don't work any more.
When I search for a record in Search form and try to navigate to this record, then I have following error: please see, - http://www.jetScreenshot.com/demo/20110516-867-20kb.jpg
Then I take a look to perv. Search page Bindings node (before move APasesDati VO under LVAIKolekcijaDati VO) and then to new Search page Bindings node (after move APasesDati VO under LVAIKolekcijaDati VO). There was differences, please see: - http://www.jetScreenshot.com/demo/20110516-o7f-75kb.jpg
There in Data Control isn't APasesDati VO (as I move it under LVAIKolekcijaDati VO). And that is the problem why my Search page don't work correctly. What can be done in this situation?
I tried to recreate APasesDatiIterator in Search page Executables, but I can't create this iterator. Please, see, - http://www.jetScreenshot.com/demo/20110516-x3g-68kb.jpg I think if I can create this iterator again, then all would work. But I can't.
I want to know WHY I can't create Iterator in Executables from Data Controls child element? And How can I resolve my problem?
If there are some miss understanding or need mor information, then please let me know!
Waiting for responses, best regards, Debuger!

Dear, Frank! Can You please, say how can I resolve my problem? My goal is to search for records in VOc (children object) and then from Search page SELECT RECORD and then go to page where VOc object is represented (on correct record). How can I do that?
Best regards, Debuger!

In Safari, the link to "mail this web page" doesn't work, and the share link shows "no service". Does anyone have a solution? I have a MacBook Pro and upgraded to Yosemite yesterday

Web pages don't load until I start Safari also

Random web pages don't load - I wait - and then as soon as I start Safari to load that web page, the web page then loads immediately on Firefox.
== This happened ==
A few times a week
== Months ago

That did it, Oxy. Thank you so much for the fast reply! Just a quick question if you return to this thread: Is that a new feature or something I didn't notice before that mistakenly got selected?
I'll browse through the options to see if there is anything else new.

Web pages don't fill the screen completely and with the font settings on 16 or larger the links and letters/words overlay making it difficult to read.

Web pages don't fill the entire monitor screen and words overlay

You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
*Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
*NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/
If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause such issues.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
*Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"
