Image Links To Other Sites

I have designed a website in DW CS3 and i wanted to make some
of my images link to other external sites......however when write
the link address in and upload the info then try the link it always
comes back with a blank web page with - cannot find URL - on
it...... any ideas, its really annoying me now. i'm not writing in
css. cheers

As tweaked suggests, the links to external sites should look
like this -
<a href="
http://www.example.com/thepage.html''....
A valid external link must specify the protocol and the
domain.

Advantages and protocol on listing a page of links to other sites

Hi, Once again, I have questions about my site www.freemodelguild.com. the question is more a general question for experienced web designers not about Muse specifically.
Most of the art groups in our area have a page that lists all the other art groups in the area, and so this organization is suggesting we do the same thing. I know having other links on a site can help with our search engine optimization, and we are trying to drive traffic to our site, so I think it's a good idea. However, should I just copy a list of all the other arts organizations? Should I write to their webmasters and ask them to link to us? Should I write and ask for permission to link to them? I just don't know what the protocol is.
Again this is such a non-web savvy group, they know they want a website, but have no idea what should and could be done so I've had wing this thing. I'm a print designer and, of course, things are done a little differently with print.
I appreciate all the feedback I get from this forum.

Generally you would have no problem adding links to other sites without asking. No website owner will tell you you can't as the more links they have coming to their site the better. I have always had mixed feelings on that type of thing. One thing to remember is the more external links you have the more work it is to make sure they all work. Dead links make your site look bad as well as bad for search engines so you would have to constantly be checking that the sites are still operational or the link hasn't changed.
So over the years I personally have found it better to just supply a small handful of links (maybe no more than 5) that I think will benifit my site visitors directly. Almost always it is a very well established long standing site so I know it is worthwhile/relevant and most likely not to dissapear.
Remember that when you do link to an external site to set the target to open in a new browser window. Also keep in mind that the more external links you have the more you are pushing your visitor to somewhere else.

PHP: image link- rel or site?

When it comes to php, I'm a newb. I don't know much about writing the code. Here's my issue: I'm having problems with displaying an image in my right column (rightcol.php).
The image is viewable when you go to
http://www.spartanburgfamilydentistry.com/test/spartanburg_dental_patient_forms/
But not when you are on the main page:
http://www.spartanburgfamilydentistry.com/test/index.php
I've tried to link the image via REL and SITE, and I've linked the rightcol.php REL and SITE.
Can someone point me in the right direction? Any help is greatly appreciated!

any help is really really appreciated.
thanks in advance

Which version of DW are you running?
There are plenty of jQuery solutions and commercial plugins to create photo galeries.
Some require hand coding,

others are point and click inside Dreamweaver.

Tracking links to other sites

I would like to track how many times users of my site are clicking links that send them to other web sites. I use Google Analytics but it is not a part of it. I know that some people add code to their links for tracking the clicks.
Thanks.
S. Houtzager

This could be logged by linking to an intermediate page on your own site.
For example (if your server supports PHP), you could link to http://www.yourownsite.com/jump.php?url=http://www.facebook.com instead of a direct link to http://www.facebook.com
Then make a PHP file on your server called "jump.php".
<?php
header("Location: $_GET[url]");
// OPTIONAL: you could have PHP write your own log file here
// if not using GoogleAnalytics or your server's own logging/reporting
exit;
?>

Desktop picture linked to other sites.

I do not have a company website yet. Instead for the time being I would like to link pictures (that I have on my desktop) of products I have in develpment to sites like LinkedIn and Twitter. If this can be done please explain how. I have a Macbook.
Thanks in advance.

All in the above post didnt work for me..
I had this same problem which was driving me crazy !! ..I followed some of the suggestions and some seemed to work for a short while.. After a few days i have managed to succeed in stopping the redirects from happening ..what i did was this ..
I installed browser protect add on from the extensions page then i surfed the net for about 15 mins and constantly browsing and searching with google. I then clicked addons -extensions and options on browser protect.. in options you get 4 tabs look through them and you will see the offending search links ..Delete them all and leave only the ones you know are safe.. then browse and you will see you dont get redirected anymore ... check your options if you start to get redirected again and go through the same process and delete the suckers ...
This is the only solution that has really worked for me, malware scans virus scans and all the rest didnt work .. I even deleted firefox re booted and downloaded again only to find it started to redirect to some crappy "alltheweb2 links and some other links i cant remember now..
Give the above a shot it works !.

Links to other sites are terribly sluggish

Since the installation of Firefox 10.0.1 links on websites or internal bookmarks are sluggish or don't work at all. If I copy the site address from the address bar, then highlight and "paste and go" it acts immediately, otherwise it just spins it's wheels. Re-loading does not help at all. While it's a nuisance, I do believe it should perform better

Clear the cache and the cookies from sites that cause problems.
"Clear the Cache":
*Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
"Remove Cookies" from sites causing problems:
*Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

Having trouble making my links to other sites open in a new window

On iWeb, on my Links page, I have ticked the box to 'open links in a new window' s that viewers aren't directed away from my set, however, when I visit my site this ahsn't worked - any idea what else I need to do?

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?
Try the following:
1 - delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iWeb's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
3 - reboot, launch iWeb, reset the links in the Inspector pane and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

Everything I click on on any browser (including search engines, links to other sites, pictures, etc.) redirects me to a bogus spam site. What can I do to fix this?

Literally every single thing that I click on will redirect me to some bull crap website (ie. mackeeper, bullet flix, russian mail order brides). This happened once before but went away after I noticed that my firewall wasn't enabled. But now its back and really making me irritated since I can't do anything anymore without being led somewhere else. Please Help!!!

Border Issue w/ Image Links

I have been trying to get the borders that I put around
images that are linked to show up black instead of the typical
blue/purple combo. I've used CSS to get this effect, and it works
great in Firefox, Safari, and Netscape, but won't work at all in
Internet Explorer. How can I get it to work in IE? The page in
question is:
http://www.dehoneytravel.com/travel_tools/furtherpreparation.htm
My CSS code for the links is here:
http://www.dehoneytravel.com/css/common.css
The link style is the ".picslink" at the bottom of the code.
My next question is how to have both an image link and a text
link? An example would be on the main page, www.dehoneytravel.com.
Under the featured tours heading, I've got an image link and then
at the end of the paragraph, a text link.
Thanks!

did you try searching the forum for image link color?

How can I stop other people copying my images from my web site.

How can I stop other people copying my images from my web
site.
I use dreamweaver CS3 for the mac

both are a waste of time. Fornication with a leaky condom.
Pointless and not
worth the effort. Or worse!
the obfuscation JavaScript will get the site to not be
listed in any search
engines because they can't "see" the page or any links on it.
You would be
"protecting" the images but no one would find them.
And all of those obfuscation JS things can be reverse
engineered. In most
cases- it's not worth it to prove it can be broken other than
to prove it
can be done. The images are nothing special in almost any
site using one of
those $29.95 applications.
Have you done the basics? Turned off directory browsing or
put a default
index page in every folder? A few years ago i ran across a
site with one of
those block right click scripts on it. Dumb curiosity- opened
a picture, and
looked around the directory. All open directories. A block
right click
script and every folder on the site was open.
/photos/private/girlfriend/hottub
Nuff said. The blocking script made me curious enough to poke
around the
directories.

Adobe Muse Site Post/Broken File Image Links

I posted my Adobe Muse site and it is riddled with broken image file links. The site isn't loading
I was told the broken image files are due to naming the files with "periods" in the file
name. I need to rename each file and replace it in Muse pages. If that is the case
why did the site look fine when I was viewing in Adobe Business Catalyst posting?
I'm super concerned that I may have to rebuild much of the site with new file name
updates to broken image links.
Anyone? Help is appreciated.

Impossible to speculate without the URL for the site, or at minimum an example of the file names in question.
Do you have files named starting with a period? That would be a problem for some hosting providers.
