Inserting Multimedia Links

I have inserted multimedia links into my document. When I
generate the links all work correctly. However, once I then move
the file to the appropriate drive and then go click on the link I
get an error message.
The page cannot be found
HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found.
The media is a .wrf file (WebEx Recorded File). The files are
listed under the Baggage folder. I would assume that the file
format is not supported but why would it work when running from my
desktop and not from the shared drive.
I have tried not only as multimedia but as a file. Still the
same problem. I have tried keeping the files in various drives and
linking from the various locations but that doesn't seem to work
either.
PLEASE HELP! Thanks in advance.

Sorry it took me so long to reply - the system wouldnt take
my password and even tried resetting. so I had to create a whole
new login.
I should have thought to include the details you need in the
first post. Sorry about that. I do copy to my desktop and work from
there making changes. I then copy the whole file up to a shared
network drive. I tested from my work computer and my test machine.
I go into our application click on the help link there, everything
opens fine. I go and click on the link to the file I inserted and
error. Both locations fail. I hope that helps. Let me know if you
need more info.
Thanks !

  • Inserting a link to BI Publisher report and passing the dashboard prompts

    I have an answers dashboard where there are various prompts (say P1, P2, P3, P4  -all these are date prompts )and various  reports.
    These Prompts are stored as Presentation variable say var1, var2, var3, var4.
    I need to insert a Link on this page to a BI Publisher Report.  BI Publisher report also has some prompts say D1, D2, D3 , D4, D5, D6
    The link should take the values from the prompts of this page and open the BI Publisher report with D1= value of Prompt P1,
    D2= value of prompt P2, D3= value of Prompt P3, and D4= value of Prompt P4.
    I was easily able to use an action link -> "Navigate to Web Page" option.  I gave the URL for this BI Publisher report and clicking on that link takes me to the report.
    But I am still figuring out out to send the values of the prompts.
    The BI Publisher Report is :
    - built from an RTF template.
    - uses a SQL Query with Bind variables to get the value of its prompts D1, D2, D3, D4, D5, D6.
    - Suppose D1 is bind variable :date1, D2 is bind variable :date2, D3 is bind variable :date3 and D4 is bind variable :dat4.
    So my first try was to append the value of bind variable to the URL
    https://xxname.server.com/analytics/saw.dll?bipublisherEntry&Action=open&itemType=.xdo&bipPath=%2FSurvey%2FPhoneCount%20Record.xdo&path=%2Fshared%2FSurvey%2FPhoneCount%20Record.xdo.xdo&date1=var1
    Can someone suggest the steps I need to take to make this work.

  • Insert a link on xml report. The link should open up a document(PDFS).

    Is it possible to insert a link in the report? The value would come from a sql query. The link when clicked on would open up the pdf or doc.
    Is this done thru a href or by inserting a dynamic hyper link.
    The release Release 5.6.2 documentation references how to insert a hyperlink. NOt sure if this will work for me.
    I tried it but in the documentation it states:
    >
    If your input XML data includes an element that contains a hyperlink or part of
    one, you can create dynamic hyperlinks at runtime. In the Type the file or Web page
    name field of the Insert Hyperlink dialog box, enter the following syntax:
    {URL_LINK}
    where URL_LINK is the incoming data element name.
    >
    However the dialog box I am getting when I insert the hyperlink does not have a place to enter the element name. That is, there is no 'TYPE the file or Web page' area that I can see.

    hi ashalon,
    I did it this way in MS Word.
    1. create placeholder for value
    2. highlight it and make it a hyperlink
    3. enter the url into the address line
    So If you have a complete hyperlink in xml element URL_LINK you just have to enter {URL_LINK} into the address line. If you have only a part of the link, i.e only a product name, you can enter "http://www.oracle.com?product={PRODUCT_NAME}".
    Hope this helps.

    Hi,
    I think you should investigate in how to upload the information into the database. If the employee keeps the photo on the local drive then this isn't realy for everyone to use
    Your options are : Upload to the database as ImageItem

  • Tip - delete any email address code in the Insert email link prior to use!

    I have been using the email link for a while now. I know its not secure, but in certain cases it can be used - I think.
    Today I found a strange problem.
    I have a recordset with lots of email addresses in it which are shown on an encrypted password and userlevel  protected page.
    The idea is to allow users with fully authorised access to the page to be able to email the other users by clicking on a link and opening their email client.
    The email addresses are displayed as follows on the page:
    <td>Email address:</td>
               <td><?php echo htmlentities($row_clubedit['club_chair_email'], ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); ?></td>
    So after highlighting and copying  the php code, I click on the insert email link in the insert menu.
    The insert panel comes up with some code  in the email link field without me paying any attention to it.
    I paste my code into the text part of the link panel.
    It comes up with the following code:
    <td><a href="mailto:<?php echo $row_joinupset['mail']; ?>"><?php echo htmlentities($row_clubedit['club_chair_email'], ENT_COMPAT, 'utf-8'); ?></a></td>
    Note that thre are now two different recordsets in the email address.These recordsets do exist on the page, but I did not insert the  $row_joinupset['mail'] into the code - Dreamweaver did it.
    Checking further, I find that earlier on the page I had created an email link by the same method using the joinupset recordset. The insert Email Link panel had not cleared the old email address from it's cache, so all the email adresses after the first one pointed to the same email address.
    Because the page showed the correct email address, I did not notice until I tested my code, and found that every one called up the first email address.
    I do not know if this is a bug in Dreamweaver, or why it happens, but it does.
    Tip - delete any code in the email adress field of the insert panel prior to inserting the correct email address code.

    I have gone though this process yesterday and worked for me.
    I would suggest you to have following things handy before calling Apple
    1. Serial number of apple device which is associated with ur apple id
    2. At least one answer to your old security questions
    3. And you should be logged on to my account page of apple Id so that when customer care demands generation of 4 digit code you can do it.
    This complete process is very simple but may take some time but apple guy was very helpful in my case.
    Also remember the answers to the security questions are case sensitive.
    Good luck

  • Inserting multimedial "footnotes" or similar pages in iBooks Author

    we are about to develop an ibook with ibook author.
    some information might be well known to the most of the users.
    but to some not.
    so we want to insert multimedial pages to explain certain facts. these facts should only be accessed if needed. i.e. they shouldn't appear if one marches straight through the application.
    any idea how to put this in action?
    thanks

    Links are a two-step process that includes both a bookmark and a hyperlink.
    Confirm your process via iBA Tips and Tricks 01 / Hyperlink two words/text
    As for templates, you have to start with one, whether it comes from Apple or a 3rd party. See the tip at that same page about a childrens' book example.

  • Inserting AIM links into iWeb

    As you know the HTML for inserting AIM links is aim:goim?screenname=YOURNAME&message=sup+man! So I was wondering how to set this up in iWeb if it is even possible.

    You could modify the files outside of iweb, but I suspect the next time you published anything with iweb, it would see the file differs from the one you have made with iweb and change it right back again. I suppose you could move the modified file and all the other files associated with the page to another location and delete the page from iweb, but I couldn't be sure

    Thunderbird is only on version 24, unless you are asking about Firefox the Browser :-)?

  • Is there an "insert all links" type of feature or add-on for Firefox that works with Thunderbird?

    Hello Firefoxies,
    Is there an "insert all links" type of feature or add-on for Firefox that works with Thunderbird or any email app? I want to be able to insert all the links from a Firefox bookmarks folder automatically in to an outgoing email and include the names that I have given to those saved links / bookmarks.
    I searched for this add-on on the Firefox and the Thunderbird sites, but I don’t think the one that I found is for what I am thinking of.
    What I would like to do is to be able to add all the links in a saved tabs folder, or any bookmarks folder, from Firefox in to the body of an outgoing email preferably in Thunderbird, or any email app... so I could just click and all the links and hopefully all the names that I have given to those links will then appear in the body of an outgoing email automatically, ready for me to then write what I want, plug in an address, and send.
    When I did a search of add-ons on the Firefox and Thunderbird sites, I found something called “Open all links 0.3.1” on the Thunderbird site that I think is for the opposite of my description... I think this add-on is to automatically open all the links in an email that is received... '''which IS NOT what I want to do'''... I want to place all the links that I have in a Firefox bookmarks folder in to an outgoing email... the URL to the “Open all links 0.3.1” add-on is below for you to look at just in case I am reading this wrong...

    Otherwise, I could not find any add-on that fits my description.

  • Utilizing Multimedia Links - Links to Media Using Adobe Acrobat 9

    Embedding multimedia such as videos makes PDFs too large to e-mail and large to store, and each distributed PDF has to contain the video instead of the video residing in just a single location. I wanted to know whether one can embed links in the PDF to a free website such as the Acrobat.com website to store the actual video file on this site and have PDFs access the video(s)? I was thinking that since Acrobat.com allows a certain limit of storage, this seemed like a slick way to include video without dealing with large PDF sizes. I saw this done in several of the example PDFs on Adobe's website; but all the linked sites were other than Acrobat.com.
    I checked the Acrobat.com forum and it appears that my request is not possible because video files are restricted and can not be uploaded and shared on the Acrobat website. Their list of restricted video formats include MOV, WMV, FLV, XVID, DIVX, and RETG. Apparently Acrobat.com once allowed SWF format; but it was blocked because of security concerns.
    Is there a location for a non-professional to safely store multimedia files such as videos where the website and be linked to a PDF and the PDF execute the multivideo link, like in the examples shown for Abobe Acrobat 9?
    Aside from a place to store files and link to them, what video formats work best? I have a SONY video camcorder (MPG format) and want to just put several files on a website and then produce PDFs with the links to access these files to play within the PDFs. Are there some tips located somewhere on how best to link videos to a website that hosts the videos?
    Thanks in advance,

    After trying out various options suggested in this forum, I have found another solution for Word TOC links in PDF.
    My environment is as follows:
    Windows Vista
    Acrobat 9.0
    Word 2007
    Solution:
    Open the Word document.
    Place the mouse cursor at the beginning of the TOC field.
    Right-click and choose Edit Field from the shortcut menu.
    Click Table of Contents to open the Table of Contents dialog.
    Select the Show page numbers checkbox.
    Select the Use hyperlinks instead of page numbers checkbox.
    Note: While the preview on the dialog removes the page numbers, they are not removed from your TOC page.
    Click OK.
    In the Word document, hover your mouse over a TOC entry. You will notice that the entire string (and not just the page number) is now hyperlinked. 
    Generate the PDF and verify if the TOC links work.

  • How can I insert a link to an image file into numbers

    I wish to include access to images in a numbers spreadsheet without actually inserting the images. Doing this where the image is a web page is not difficult but these images are on my local drive. I tried dropping an image file onto Safari ( the image opens as a page in Safari) and then copying the URL ( it has the form:  file:///Users/JTC_49/Documents/Pictures/IMG_0248.JPG )  and using it to create a link ( Format>Add a Link>paste the URL into the 'link' field). That all seems to work but when you click on the link you get a message " Couldnt Open Link ". A web page link would open a browser and display the linked page. This does not appear to try to open a browser to pass the URL.

    Open the parent file. Go to Tools> Advanced Editing> Link tool. Then draw an area in the parent file with the link tool to open the new file. You will get the Create link dialog box. Under Link action, select "Open a file" and click on next. Select the file to open and click on Select button. You will get the "Specify Open Preference Window".  Select  "New Window"  and Click on OK. Save the file and re-open it. This time the new file will open in a new window keeping the parent file.

  • Insert email link missing in new editor??

    The new editor it seems to be missing inserting a email link.. If I highlight text in the editor and click the insert link button in the toolbar, there is no option for inserting a email address as a link like in the old editor - unless I am missing something? Telling my clients that they have to insert mailto:[email protected] in the external link field seems pretty silly and backward.
    Any plans to add this BASIC functionality back into the BC Editor?

    Should not be too hard to add under external link in the link manager a email one.
    This is all beta Alexander and BC know they got more things and bug fixes to add to it.
