Hypertext link from a Result

Can part of a Result be configured as a hypertext link? For example, could a click on a column of a table go to cnn.com?
As far as I can tell, the closest general support for this navigates from a Result to a Dashboard, which contains a hypertext link. This isn't satisfactory because it requires two clicks and an intermediate page load to reach the destination.
(Curiously, the Oracle Business Intelligence Answers, Delivers, and Interactive
Dashboards User Guide claims that Gauges support navigation to web sites: "To allow navigation to multiple saved requests, dashboards or Web sites ...".)
What workarounds are recommended?
One possibility occurs to me: Include a hypertext link in a text field in the data; this would support a link from the text box of the data, but not elsewhere, and it would require mangling the data.

Try this:
1) Create a "dummy" column. In the Edit Formula button, enter this: CASE WHEN 1=0 THEN TableName.ColumnName ELSE 'www.cnn.com' END
2) Override the data format with "Hypertext Link (prepend http://)" option.
3) Go to Results. Now the column displays www.cnn.com and when clicked, takes you to the site.
OR, if you wish your data to be a link to the site (not data dependent), do this:
1) Override the data format to "Hypertext Link (prepend http://)" option.
2) Switch to Custom Text Format. (The reason for this an the previous step is to make the text in the Hypertext Link (prepend http://) editable.
3) Edit what you see to this: "http://"@[html]"(a href="http://"www.cnn.com"")"@"(/a)" (Changed the angle brackets so it displays...)
4) Go to Results. Now the data in the column displays but they become hyperlinks to the cnn site.

Links from Search Results are not resolving or take a very long time.

The searches happen fairly quickly, but the links from the results are not resolving. I am unable to get the information I need. It appears there are performance problems with the site.

Hypertext link from image loaded via xml

I thought this would be easy but for some reason it's not
working.
What I want to accomplish:
Make an image loaded into my textArea via XML a link. I
thought I could do something like this:
<a href='
http://www.mysite.com"><img
src="myImage.jpg"/></a>
Simple enough you'd think but the image appears but with no
hypertext link capabilities. :(
Any thoughts? Wisdom?
Thanks.

Hi Marghoob,
Thanks for your reply. Turns out it is a bug with the Flash 7
player. The code works fine in the Flash 8 and 9 player. I guess
this was a reminder that I should look for the simple things first.

When opening certain websites or clicking links from google results, I get this popup message "Error: 'setTimeout' called on an object that does not implement i

The message says: "Error: 'setTimeout' called on an object that does not implement interface Windows" Multiple message windows for this get open. And there is an OK button under it. I have to click on OK button on all the windows to be able to continue with working on the browser again.

hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

Hypertext link in pdf, hypertext link in pdf

Hello,
Could anyone tell me how to create a pdf with the hypertext link from word or power point ?
Thanks a lot
Regards

Hi Adriana,
I stay away from Firefox for this very reason. It doesn't seem to show things as well as IE. I don't know if this is because I am missing some plugins, but have you tried using IE.
Possible solution:
It seems that Firefox >1.5 needs to have its security settings changed, using a user.js file, before it will activate links to files. Chrome has similar drawbacks. This browser requires a plugin installed before links to files work properly (see https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/jllpkdkcdjndhggodimiphkghogcpida)
I have also seen the Allow / Block message. It isn't there all the time, but I suspect it has something to do with access rights to the drive / directory / folder where the PDF is stored. I have learned to just live with this.
Note, it is important that you use the correct number of slashes. Previously, Firefox (<1.5) required 5 forward slashes in the link path.

How can I view the underlying URL to a hypertext link in text from galley or story mode?

How can I view the underlying URL to a hypertext link in text from galley or story mode?

click inside the hyperlink and open Window > Hyperlinks (in InCopy). The link is highlighted there. If you can't see it in the editable field, double-click the highlighted entry and it'll open in a dialog box.

Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?

Hypertext links are not always preserved from Word to PDF, using Aperçu or Adobe, depending on OS 10 or Lion. Why? This generally works perfectly in Windows. Why are Apple and Adobe unable to correctly handle links when converting from Word to PDF?
Depending on the system version, and Office Word version:
- a pure URL link starting with http or even www sometimes works in PDF, either produced by Aperçu or Adobe, sometimes does not work;
- other kind of links where the text under display is not a URL, never work!
I like everything with Apple computers and software, except PDF generation. Output files are usually bigger in size, and no better quality, than under Windows. Furthermore, it is weird that something as common as hyperlinks does not work correctly!
I related this question with Mac OS X Snow Leopard, but the problem is still there with Mac OS Lion.
This problem seems to have been around for years, without any proper solution from Apple and/or Adobe! To me, this is very embarrassing!

Greetings NoNameGiven,
If I understand the problem correctly (I’m not sure I do) you would prefer ‘iii’ to be read as “eye eye eye” rather than “three”? The alt text property is the only way that I know of to make this happen. Hope this helps.

IWeb hypertext links to pages from my site not "viewable" in some browsers

I am new to iWeb 08. iWeb created hypertext links to eleven pages from my "top level" site are not "clickable" or viewable in some browsers yet the hyperlinks I added on top page to other sites don't present a problem.
No problem with Safari or AOL Desktop Version 1.2 or Firefox browsers. However, AOL Ver 10.3.7 (rev 4136.310) only shows other site links and NOT the page links at the top of site page. Only a dot is visible where links to other pages in the site. I thought it could have been a Java Scripts problem so I updated my AOL to latest JAVA. Not concerned for my part but others with Mac AOL may have same problem.
Is there something I could do diferent at my site or is this another AOL shortcoming?
See: http://web.mac.com/louiedea/OceanaMed_Cruise_2008/MedCruise08.html
Thanks, LouieDeA

Gayle,
No solution yet. I am sure it is a shortcoming of AOL's Mac browser but am trying to contact AOL support (difficult now that they are free). I don't use their browser but there are probably those that do. I presume you don't have that problem when you use Safari, etc?

Using Assembler to extract links from a file contained in a package

Hi everyone,
I need help creating a DDX file that would extract links from the second file in a package. Can you point me to some examples somewhere? The file has links to other files in the package. It doesn`t work when I remove it from the package, the links seem to be broken, so I can`t extract them. I've tried a lot of ways with PackageFiles nameKeys but I always get the Cover page links for some reason. We need to extract the links to view what they need to look like. Ultimately, I need to replace URL links with links to files in a package. In the solution, I will extract URL links, replace them with GOTOE actions in the .xfdf file and reinsert the links in that PDF that's being packaged. It will point directly to files in the package as oppose to web locations. I plan to apply an XSLT transformation as a step in the process.
Thanks,
Alain Roy

You mentioned that The file has links to other files in the package. How did those links get there? Were those links originally between PDF files in a relative folder structure? Then you put those PDF files into the PDF package?
Unfortunately, Acrobat 9 does not support hypertext linking between files in a PDF package.
You mentioned your lack of success getting the links from the second file in the PDF package. In your PackageFiles result element, you can specify the name of the file you want, but you cannot specify the ordinal number of the file. Here is a DDX that extracts a file from a package. The <NoPackage> changes the result from a PDF package to a single PDF.
<DDX xmlns="http://ns.adobe.com/DDX/1.0/">
<PDF result="myresult">
<NoPackage/>
    <PackageFiles nameKeys="Recap.pdf">
        <PDF source="doc1"/>
    </PackageFiles>
</PDF>

Using dmenu to open links from xterm

Hi there,
Not too long ago, I toyed with xterm to make URL selection somewhat similar to urxvt's with url-select. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=181515
Not too satisfied because it requires compiling xterm, I found a simpler solution. First off, you need this little script. I called it grab-urls:
#!/bin/bash
regex='\bhttps?://[^ ]*\b'
function menu { dmenu -p 'Open URL' ; }
function open { dwb -n "$1" ; }
urls="$(grep -Eo "$regex")"
[ -z "$urls" ] && exit
url="$(echo "$urls" | tac | menu)"
[ -n "$url" ] && open "$url"
Next, the trick is to have xterm pipe the content of its scrollback to that script. In your .Xresources:
xterm*printerCommand: /path/to/grab-urls
*VT100.Translations: #override \n\
Alt <Key>u: print-everything(noAttrs, noNewLine)
After sourcing it with xrdb and restarting xterm, pressing Alt+u should spawn dmenu with the links it found.
This is nothing too fancy, but I thought I'd share it.

Office documents does not open in the default office application from Search Results

1 WFE + 1 App Server + 1 server for OWA + 1 separate DB server make up our DEV SharePoint 2013 environment. We migrated many web applications from our SP 2010 environment to SP 2013 environment. Client integration is enabled and "Open
Documents in Client Applications by Default" feature is enabled at the site collection level. OWA is enabled and working on the search results, such as showing preview.
From the document libraries, if I open office documents like word, excel and PowerPoint, they open in the respective office applications. However, from the search results, when I try to open by clicking on the result, it opens on the browser. I want
OWA to show document preview but still want to open the document in the default office application. How to overcome this?
I have IE 8.
Thanks, Soumya | MCITP, SharePoint 2010

Go to the bottom of the Search page, you will see a Preferences link:
From there, you can set your preference. This is a per-user setting and as far as I'm aware, cannot be set globally.

Link from delivery to subcontracting purchase order

Hi Guys,
anyone know how to pick up the link from a delivery (LIKP / LIPS) and the subcontracting purchase order (EKKO / EKPO) which was used to create it?
I'm not sure such a link exists - the PO does not appear in the document flow of the delivery, and the delivery does not appear in the history of the purchase order.
My users want to print the PO number on the delivery document (not unreasonable?) but I can't find a link anywhere...
Mick Kelly

Hi Mick,
I assume that you mean the outbound delivery created in transaction ME2O to deliver components to your subcontractor.
There is no link possible between the subcon.PO and this outbound delivery. Because the component requirements in ME2O can be the result of multiple subcon.PO's. When you create the outbound delivery, it contains components for the cumulated requirements (so that can be for multiple PO's). That's the reason that there is logically no link possible between PO and the outbound delivery.
Kind regards, Dick Hendriks.

Some hypertext links broken in generated PDF

Hi all,
I'm using FM 8.0p277 to generate a PDF of a book which uses hypertext TOC links to different chapters and topics. We've been using the same process for some time without any problems:
Generate TOC -> Print book to .ps -> run Distiller.
However, recently some of the hypertext links have ceased to work, seemingly at random.
Sample marker text from a nonfunctional link: openObjectId 01 PP System Theory of Op.fm:2 699335
Sample marker text from a functional link: openObjectId 02 PP Intro & Sys Rqts.fm:2 683648
The broken links are not isolated to a certain paragraph style or even to a specific book.
Does anyone have any idea how to fix this? I'm really at a loss.

Arnis Gubins
Thank you very much; the broken links were pointing to markers I'd removed during the release process instead of where I thought they were supposed to be pointing. I think it was a PEBKAC issue, but I never would have noticed if you hadn't mentioned checking the link properties.
I regenerated the PDF after fixing the markers in FM and everything seems to be working fine.
Thanks again!

Help Please - having difficulties creating af link from the text to an attached file i acrobat

I have been reading the help, but it just wonn't work when I try.
I have tried as followed (I am working with a danish version, and hope to matched the same word as in the english version of Acrobat Xpro):
1. From the toolbox i choose content and then 'hyperlink'
2. I mark the text from which i wish to make a link
3. Acrobat respond with an popup picture 'create a link'
4. From the popup I mark 'Open a side' and push 'next'
5. Acrobat respond with a new popup picture 'create / go to a side'
6. I go to the navigator and open the list with attached file's that I have embedded in my acrobat file.
7. I mark the to which i wish to make a link to
8. In the popup 'create / go to a side' that stilll is open, i push 'Mark hyperlink'
Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
How do i do it right?
Please help.

Hello Bernd
Thanks for a quick respond.
This corresponds to the text I have tried myself, but apparently I do something wrong
1.      Open a PDF that contains a PDF file attachment – done
2.      Go to where you want to create a link. If that location is in the file attachment, click the Attachments button in the navigation pane, select the file attachment, and click open.
Here I go to side number 10 from which I wish to make a link from (I am not open the attachment file at this moment, as the location not is inside the file attachment).
(I earlier also tried to mark the attachment file and click open, and It result that the attached file just opened normally without creating a link to the file).
3.      Choose Tools > Content > link, and select the area for the link
Here I mark the text on side 10 from which I wish to make a link to a attached file
4.      In the Create Link dialog box, set the link appearance, select Go To A Page View, and then click Next
Here I have selected ‘Go to a page view’ as told and I click Next
5.      Set the page number and view magnification you want, either in the parent PDF document or in the file attachment, and then click set link.
Here I go to the navigation pane and mark the attached file from the file list (the files in the list hasn’t any side number in the list) and then I click Set Link.
Then I hoped that I have created a link from the acrobat text to the attached file. In stead Acrobat has made a link to the same sidenumber that respond to the text from which i wish to make a link . F.ex. the linktext is on side 10 - then the link goes to side 10.
What do I do wrong.?
