Internal Link Behaviour for ePub in iBooks

I have a problem with internal links in epub books: it seems that if a named anchor is placed in the middle or at the bottom of a paragraph that spans > 1 page, when you click on a hyperlink to take you to that anchor, you're taken instead to the page showing the beginning of that paragraph, not the page that actually contains the anchor. This isn't a problem with Adobe Digital Editions.
Can anyone confirm this is true, and should be considered a bug?
Cheers,
Alex

Well, not sure if anyone cares or not but I've discovered that this only applies to empty named anchors (the sort that InDesign generates, for example). If you put any content in the tag, even a space, then it will work. But if you use either the <a id="blah" /> or <a id="blah></a> methods, it'll go to the top of the paragraph as described above. Filling it with an empty span / space using style="display:none" also yields the same (negative) results. So still unsure as to the best method - obviously if you're manually editing the ePub file you can tag the relevant bit of text, but I'm trying to do everything in one sweep using some post-processing...

Object link navigation for opening a document using the document id

Hi All,
I am facing a problem with setting up the object link for the transaction id field. My requirement is when i click on the order id, it should open up the particular order.
For example this kind of scenario is done in application CRMD_BUS2000120. here in the result list we get the list of transaction ids and on click of the id it opens the particular order. Can anyone tell me how to implement the same.
Thanks & Regards,
Anuradha

Hi,
In the result list to open the property they wud ve used is Internal Link. For the order to open from some other link you have to mention your link details.
Say, for opening any account form some other screen you have to give the details as follows in the propetied of the particular field,
object Type : AccountCRM
Method : Application
Field -> Object Key : NAV_OBJECT_KEY.
Hope it helps.
Regards,
Purush.

Anyone know how to get internal links to work?

I have been trying to use an internal link system for my FAQ section in 9ias, but any internal links just bring me to the homepage.

Thanks for everyone who read this thread. I came up with a solution to my issue, and I'm now able to tether my work computer to my iPhone 5 (AT&T) and log into VPN and see all my internal work apps. My IT guy at work had me change the settings within VPN itself (so had nothing to do with the iPhone 5 or AT&T) to "Enable local LAN access (if not configured)" under Advanced/Preferences in settings.
I'm super pumped!!! As the 4G offered incredible speeds compared to my 3G Verizon iPhone 4.

New internal Hard Drive for my Ibook G4 (March 2005); Panther 10.3.9

Hi there,
hope I'm not posting a post which is already answered, but couldn't find any appriopriate one.
The thing is I want to buy a bigger HDD for my lovely Ibook. Questions:
1) I looked in "about this MAC" and found out, that it should be an ATA drive. Is that correct? Or can I use some other drives types as well? Can I use Ultra ATA to speed up the whole ship?
2) At what else, when buying, should I pay attention?
3) Is it advisable to buy a used hard drive, or would you strongly disadvise?
4) Any brands, types you would suggest (I'm thinking about some nice 60-80gbs)?
5) After buying, is it possible to make a 1:1 copy from the old one to the new one, so that I don't have to install everything again from the beginning?
6) New ibooks are shipped with this Sudden Motion Sensor, which helps protecting the HDD. Is it possible, to have this one too?
Thanks for all the help and response,
and sorry if there is a post with the same matter already

Hi iMaster,
1 - Apple uses Ultra ATA hard drives.
2 - RPM (Revolution Per Minute) I use a 5400RPM in my internal and a 7200RPM for my external. The 7200RPM hard drive I believe run hotter then the 5400RPM. You will need a hard drive that is 2.5" wide X 9.5mm tall. I believe IDE and ATA interfaces are the same.
3 - I wouldn't buy a used hard drive because it may not last as long as a new one. Using a hard drive usually eats away at the life span.
4 - Toshiba, Hitachi, Seagate, or IBM. You may want to look at iFixit.com for iBook compatible hard drives.
5 - Yes, you will need to backup your iBook (on to an external drive, whether a external hard drive, iPod, computer, etc. I suggest using Carbon Copy Cloner. You may want to look at Macworld: Take Control of Mac OS X Backups and Knowledge Base Document #106941 which has examples on How to back up and restore your files.
6 - AMS (Apple Motion Sensor, Mobile Motion Module, or Sudden Motion Sensor) is an sensor that is integrated into the logic board. It is not a hard drive feature.
To be honest with you, I don't really recommend upgrading your internal hard drive. Do you still have an outstanding warranty on your iBook? You do realize that replacing the hard drive will void Apple's One (1) Year Limited Warranty, unless they are an AASP. If you would like hear more, let us know.

How do I create a Table of Contents page for ePub that link?

I am new to E-Publishing, I have been able to my overall book but cannot figure out the Table of Contents. I need them to link to the chapter page. I have created a table of contents and they dont link. I tried to create hyperlink within the document but they only work in the pdf version and not the ePub. What can i do so that they link in the ePub version as well ?
I dont know if this information would be helpful but I also wanted to mention that All the chapter names are set to the same style, and that the Table of content I have created so far was made through the TOC option in InDesign. Also the layout is fixed and I am using InDesign CC 2014

Make sure the TOC is in the style source document
Thank you so much! This was the thing I did wrong. There had been another document marked for style source. Now it works perfectly.

How do I import an index into Indesign for epub and keep the links live?

What is the best way to import a subject index (the indexer uses skyindex, and has an option to output index links to indesign para numbers), but he currently provides a word file for import into Indesign 5.5 with dead page numbers. We need to retain that for print publishing, but change the index numbers for epub, to links in both directions. Whats the best way to tackle this? I hope someone out there has done this!

Page numbers do not exist in epub.
Have a read through this:

BSP - UserId and Password for Internal Users - Anonymous for other users

Hello,
We developed an application via BSP's. This application can be accessed by two kind of users.
1. External Users, with should access the page without using a userId and password.
2. Internal Users, they will have more authorisation and need to specify their userId and Password.
How can we accomplish this? I tried internal aliases, but can't get it to work properly.
In the first service 'zbsp' I didn't specify a userId and password in sicf.
Then I created an internal alias 'zbsp' referring to this 'zbsp'. In this alias I specified a userId and Password, but the system still asks for a userId and Password. (and after logging in the system gives the following error: The application name in URL .../bc/bsp/sap/zbsp2/uat_report.htm is invalid.)
What did I do wrong? Or are there other ways to accomplish this?
Greetings,
Bart

Take a look at the following mesaages that discussed the whole SSO and SSO2 ticket logins.
As for a way to handle the two different login types. Well first and formost - active the SSO Tickets on your system. Set your BSP up for that.
Then create a new starting page with an alias to the pöublic section for BSP's in your system. On this page make two links.
For your external users - one that redirects to your BSP passing the user and password in the url for the "read only external user" - that's the sap-user=name here&sap-password=passwordhere.
For your internal people give them simply the link to the BSP which when they click it will see no user name and password and redirect them to the BSP login.
Make sure you setup the BSP login according to SAP note 517860 and follow the instructions from http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/1d/13c73cee4fb55be10000000a114084/frameset.htm using the supplied SYSTEM_PUBLIC)
It's a bit basic but it works, we do it
Oh and setting up the system for the SSO (transaction sso2) is very very simple!!

How can I get my INTERNAL links to work in Mozilla Firefox? They were working a month or two ago BEFORE Firefox made updates. See details.

''locking as a duplicate - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/833946''
Here's a problem I don't know how to fix. In Mozilla Firefox prior to a couple of months
ago I could click on a link and have it open. For example, at http://usnews.vo.llnwd.net/e
1/s/7676/dw_110603_po.pdf?s=1307221956&e=1307222256&h=024749f5186aeabee854b34720f8c2d7 does it open for you? (Probably withdrawn now.)
OK, now go to https://secure.usnews.com/premium/weekly.jsp , but because you are not a
subscriber, you cannot click on the red button and have it open, or can you?
Now go to https://secure.usnews.com/premium/weekly.jsp . Does it open for you?
Now click on Download text-only edition. Does it open for you? My Mozilla makes the expected panel but leaves it blank and forms a partial black bar on the lower left that never completes rightward to show that the site has opened. It gets suspended there after I click it and will not open, BUT if I use as my ISP Internet Explorer, that last link WILL open and I can read the pdf. What program or application am I missing in Firefox that is present in IE? How can the Mozilla one be restored as it was effective for so very long till the last month or so?
In one site I had INTERNAL subheads that when I would attempt to click Mozilla Firefox would not open, as they had BEFORE Mozilla Firefox had sent out its update a month or two ago. I would then have to go down that one-page site to about page 8 just to find that subheads. Why does it not work?
Now the next problem is that this Firefox site requires that I CONFIRM my question. How am I supposed to do that when there is NO "confirm" box or panel in that page to click on?
thanks,
Carl Masthay, St. Louis, [email protected]
(I can chat but maybe Monday during the day.)

OK, I went to Private Browsing to change Never remember history to choose Use custom settings for history and then clicked on Permanent Private Browsing Mode and clicked on the bottom OK. I then went to my Firefox messages and clicked on that internal-linked multimessage and then clicked on a link. It went there for only 1 second and reverted to the top of the message, not moving on further clicking.
I then went to tools > options > privacy only to find that the default Never remember history was back in the panel. It wasn't stable at Use custom settings for history. I tried this several times. It always reverts either right away or after that 1-second success. One time it lasted an amazing 3 seconds before reverting to the top of the multimessage e-mail. So THAT failed too.
OK, so then I went to Internet Explorer and called up that message. Clicked on an internal link and watched it fail for 1 second and then clicked again and it held the message for a long time. It's something in Firefox not Int. Explorer. Please see the image to let you know what I am doing.

Internal Reconciliation rules for the Business Partner

Version: (Please provide the current version)
SBO 2005-A PL11
Description of requirements: (Please provide a detailed description)
Employees are considered as Supplier for us
We have defined two control account
One to follow the Employee Advance payment : 15130020
the other to follow the Employee Expense voucher : 37100010
Step 1 :
We create one Down Payment Request for the Employee
Step 2 :
We paid the Down Payment Request (amount : 2000) using the Outgoing Payment :
Posting Scheme generated :
(C) 11100241 Petty Cash Account
(D) 15130020 Employee Control Account for Down Payment
Step 3 :
We enter the Expense Voucher for this employee (Amount : 1200)
Posting Scheme
(D) 6XXXXXXX Profit & Loss GL Account
(C) 37100010 Employee Control Account for Expenses
Step 4 :
Due to the fact that the amount of the advance is greater than the amount of the expense voucher, the employee have to reimburse the difference.
We use the menu incoming payment
The different steps follow up are :
     Select Vendor as type of BP for the incoming payment
     Select the invoice to be paid for the vendor, and tick the box "Payment on Advance" to take in account the amount already paid in the DPR
     Do the reimbursement of 800
Posting Scheme :
(C) 37100010 Employee Control Account for Expenses
(D) 11100241 Petty Cash Account
The problem is when we try to do the internal reconciliation we could not see in the same time for the Employee the 2 reconciliation accounts.
How could we do ?
Valid as of: (Date that this legal requirement is applicable)
Business needs: (Please describe the impact on your business, if the functionality is not realized)
We are not able to clear the advance done for the employee and the reimbursement done by the employee.
Due to this fact, we retrieve if we have one other invoice to paid the DPR already paid and take in account in a previous reimbursement which generates damage in the system.
Examples: (Please describe a typical example, how the functionality should work.)
See upper
Current Workaround: (Please describe the workarounds you are using at the moment)
Use the same Control accounts for the Expense Voucher and the Advance payment
Proposed solution: (Please suggest how the new functionality should work)
Permit for the Internal reconciliation process for One Employee to retrieve the data link on the different control account regarding one employee / Supplier

Hello,
I was just wondering whether you have checked the case in 2007 A version in which brand new concept of internal reconciliation was delivered for customers.
Please try to avoid so long postings. Create rather an attachment with longer description of the issue/case. This helps to increase transparency in the discussions.

Can I list all invalid *internal* links within a site?

Hi,
we are automatically migrating content from LiveLink WCMS to CQ5. After the migration process there will be a small number of links (in text) which point to resources (mostly PDF) but contain errors. We would like to automatically determine all occurences of invalid internal links and list them for manual correction.
But there seems to be only the external link checker, which produces a list (and we need internal links to be checked).
And the usual internal link check seems to be active only during page authoring (and does not produce lists across all pages).
Is there such a thing (or can it be easily built) like an internal link checker which crawls the whole site?
Thanks for any help.
Henning

Hi Henning,
AFAIK out of the box there is no such option. You need to build one.
Thanks,

How can I add document-internal links in Pages 5?

I have a number of very large dicttionary documents (300+ pages) all of which have internal links. The internal links allow you to jump from one letter to another, so that, for example, if you're looking at words that begin with S, you can go to the A-Z letterboard at the beginning and end of the S section and immediately jump to any other section. I've also got links in the middle of the document leading to parts in the front matter (so, for example, a mention of the word "relative clause" will be linked to a section in the grammar discussing relative clauses). The nice thing is that these links would remain active when exported to .pdf, so when I shared them with others, the internal links continued to function. Each document has hundreds of these internal links. All of them appear to have been broken by the new version of Pages.
Is there a way to create document internal links like the ones I used to use for Pages '09, or has this functionality been forever removed from Pages? If the latter, who do I scream at?

Bookmarks have been removed along with 100 other features.
You could post at Menu > Pages > Provide Pages Feedback but that is pointless in my experience
Instead rate/review Pages 5 in the App Store where everyone can see it. In our local App Store, Pages 5.1 is back down to 2 stars with again 61% of users saying they hate it.
Pages '09 should be in your Applications/iWork folder, use that instead.

How to add an internal link on pages 5.0.1?

Could anyone please tell me how to add an internal link on pages 5.0.1.
I am making FAQ list, and I would like to make the first page of the document as a list of questions and when a user click on each question, it jumps to the answer (in the same document).
I found "Add link" tool but it allows you to jump URL or email only.
I was able to set the list of questions as an index page of "Table of contents" tool and jump to a question page by clicking each page number, however, it fails when I put a question in a table (I would like to place each question and answer in tables for a visual purpose).
It seems a jump by using "Table of contents" become invalid when the contents are placed in a chart. WHy?
Are there any way to solve this problem?
any advise will be appreciated.

Bookmarks have been removed from Pages 5 along with 90+ other features.

You may have Pages '09 still in your Applications/iWork folder.
The T.O.C. does not index text inside objects which includes Tables.

Pdf issue with internal links in Safari

Hello,
I am creating a web site that has 80 or so pdf's available to download. They each contain a series of 20 or so speeches. To make navigation easier I have created a new page in Open Office that is an index to each pdf, with it's page number as an internal link to the correct page. This is what I did:
1. Open each pdf in Preview and inserted a blank page (page 2), and saved the pdf. This gives me the correct page numbering for when I put in the real index.
2. Noting the start of each speech page number, I created an idex page in Open Office.
3. I saved the index as a pdf.
4. I opened the origional pdf and the new pdf index.
5. I deleted the blank page and then dragged the new index page across and made sure it was the same page position - page 2.
6. I then used the link too in Previewl to drag a link box over the page number in the index and then chose the correct page number to set as the target via Previews inspector.
7. Saved the pdf and opened and tested - everything worked fine.
The problem comes when I upload the pdfs and test the site with safari. When I open the pdf in the default safari window, the links are all out by one page i.e. if i click on page number 30 from the index, I go to the next page - page 31. If I hover the mouse at the bottom of the page and bring up the open in Preview icon and do so, the index links to the pages work fine???? I have tried with Explorer under bootcamp and the default window that opens for the pdf shows the same issue - it's out by one page.
Thanks in advance

Hi...
Try this...
Go to /Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Move the Adobe PDF Browser plugin (or just PDF Browser plugin) to the Trash.
See if that makes a difference.

Internal Links in HTML Document Not Working Correctly in PDF

I have an HTML document that contains internal links (basically a Table of Contents). When the document is displayed in a browser, the internal links work correctly. However, when I use Acrobat 8 Professional to create a PDF version from the HTML source, the links don't go to the correct place when clicked. It almost appears that they are off by one, e.g., link 7 goes to anchor 8. I can send the source document for you to look at if you email me at eharris -at- synnovation.com. I am not expert in HTML and perhaps the links/anchors are not done correctly when I create the HTML document. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

This one has the same problem. For instance, "Anchor1" as <a name="Anchor1"> appears 13 times. I am sure that your problem is that Acrobat is going to the last occurance that is just before the first one. As I scan through the file I find similar results for all of the anchors. When I used Tidy, it reduces about 1350 errors to about 474, but that is still not too good. The validator is flagging a lot of identical IDs as well as unrecognized attributes (like ONSELECTSTART). The attributes correctly accepted by body are
Attribute Specifications
* BACKGROUND=URI (background image for document)
* BGCOLOR=Color (background color for document)
* TEXT=Color (text color for document)
* LINK=Color (link color for document)
* VLINK=Color (visited link color for document)
* ALINK=Color (active link color for document)
* ONLOAD=Script (document has been loaded)
* ONUNLOAD=Script (document has been exited)
as listed on htmlhelp.com for HTML 4. There may be some new ones in HTML 5, but I did not check.
I am not looking at all of your HTML in detail, but there appears to be a lot of unneeded things based on the error messages from the validator. Many browsers will let you display the stuff (even Acrobat), but there may be errors that crop in when you do not expect it or on some other browsers that the one you check. Thus again, you should use a validator. If you are only off a few tags that might be fine, but when it is in the 1000s, there is an issue. It would also be good to break your page up into parts. It is good practice on web pages for each page to be not much more than one screen. That is often exceeded, but 59 screens of info (on my screen) is a bit much. The TOC is definitely needed in that case, but just was well go to a sub page just as well and make the info easier to track. A PDF (as you are trying to get) could be made of the entire system for those that want it all in one bit. Bill
