Linking to Mapquest

Need a little help here. I'm trying to link to a map from mapquest and am unable to do so. I tried copying the HTML it gave me but when I published, it published all of the HTML. Obviously this isn't something I normally work on so I'm seeking help. I saw a post about Skype Buttons that was similar but wanted to make sure I had to do that before I went through all of that trouble. Is there an easy way to link to the map they have provided other than copying the URL and linking to that. What I'd like to do is have the destination already coded into the HTML, the user would then just have to add where they're coming from (which is what would be on my site, the boxes for them to input their originating address). Mapquest tells me how to do that but I don't want to put that HTML on there then the whole HTML shows up instead of the map. Hope that made sense. Thanks for the help.

you could make a shape, put text or whatever in it and make the shape a hyperlink to an external page using the url of the map (copy and paste)
good luck

  • Popup won't come up to print or send email

    When I click on the print link in Mapquest or any website that has a popup like send email, the popup will not come up.
    How can I fix this?

    Try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons until the white Apple logo appears.

    Is this the only email account on the device? If not, are  you able to email pictures via other accounts?

  • Mapquest sign in box does not appear in Firefox but does in Internet Explorer. Why? Have disabled add ons but no luck.

    The sign in box does not show up on Mapquest when I use Firefox. If I use Internet Explorer, the sign in box appears. I disabled the Firefox add-ons thinking there might be a conflict but no luck. Mapquest support is at a dead end, too, especially with it working in IE but not in Firefox. Suggestions?

    Can you post a link to that login page or is this a pop-up window?

  • Pages '09: Can't Embed Link to Map in PDF

    I'm really stumped. Links to web pages that I embed in my Pages publishing docs operate as expected when I export the document to PDF. However, I'm having no success with links to Google, Mapquest or Yahoo maps. The links are live in Pages, but are dead once I export to PDF. The link text shows up blue and underlined in the PDF, but it's just static text. This is the case whether I open the PDF in Adobe Reader or Preview in MacOS, or in Adobe Acrobat Pro X in Windows XP. This is also happening on two different Macs. Again, the problem is only with links to map locations. Any ideas?

    I just repeated the steps that I had shared with you and achieved the same desired result: a PDF with a working map link. Here are the steps I just applied in outline form:
    In Pages '09 4.2, create the standalone text or text box content, that is to receive the hyperlink. If textbox, click outside the textbox to set the box in Pages. If you don't do this, applying a hyperlink to the enclosed text, and saving as a PDF will result in that text not appearing in your PDF.
    In your web browser (I used Safari 6.0.2), visit the map site of your choice; key in the location in the search window, and then double-click at least twice on the map to generate data in the map URL.
    Choose the link/embed button on the map page. Ensure the URL or tiny URL is selected. Copy it to the clipboard with either Edit > Copy, or Command+C. Perform no other clipboard activity until all steps are complete.
    In Pages, double-click the word you want to apply the hyperlink too. If it is multiple words, double-click the first word, hold the shift key down, hover the i-beam mouse pointer over the end of the last word, and click once. Your hyperlink target is now selected. Do not click within the Pages document.
    Again, in Pages, Insert > Hyperlink > Webpage.
    Enable hyperlink is selected.
    Triple-click the default Apple link to select it.
    Paste the map hyperlink from the clipboard using Edit > Paste, or Command+V.
    Press return to set the hyperlink to your selected text.
    Save your Pages document and Export the PDF.
    I have walked through this list and was able to recreate one, or multiple map links in the same document, that survived into the PDF file. Both Preview and Adobe Reader XI received active map links that worked.
    Hopefully, you will have better success with these steps and avert the Acrobat Pro route.

  • HTML links won't display in Dynamic Text Field

    I am loading external text files in dynamic text fields on my
    webage. These texts contain html links (<a href="page.html"
    target="_blank">Click Here</a> and I have "render as HTML"
    on and "selectable" off in my dynamic text field. Also, I am
    loading a CSS file. Not only do I not have a hand cursor, but I do
    not even have any of the text from that piece of html code down.
    What is going on with this? Please respond asap, as I have been
    struggling with this for a day now. Here is the Actionscript for
    loading the CSS:
    var flash_css = new TextField.StyleSheet();
    flash_css.load("styles.css");
    flash_css.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
    if (success) {
    zloc_txt.styleSheet = flash_css;
    } else {
    trace("Error loading CSS file.");
    var zloc_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
    zloc_lv.load("zloc.txt");
    zloc_lv.onLoad = function(success:Boolean) {
    if (success) {
    zloc_txt.text = this.content;
    } else {
    trace("unable to load text file.");
    zloc_txt.html = true;
    zloc_txt.editable = false;
    _global.styles.TextArea.setStyle("backgroundColor" ,
    "transparent");
    _global.styles.TextArea.setStyle("border styles" , "solid");
    Here is a sample of the text file code:
    &content=<span class="headline">Northwest Arkansas
    Locations</span>
    121 Main St.
    Russellville, AK 77801
    (626) 111-1111<br />
    <html><a href="
    http://www.mapquest.com"
    target="_blank">Click Here for Driving
    Directions</a></html><br />
    Thanks for the help,
    Chuck

    The error is here:
    zloc_txt.text = this.content;
    Even if you rendered the textfield as HTML, you still need to
    tell flash that the variable you are inserting is HTML. Therefore
    you need to use the htmlText property.
    zloc_txt.htmlText = this.content;

  • How to prevent mail from breaking web links into multiple lines?

    Hey all!
    When I send someone a long web link that is pretty long, Mail breaks it into several lines and at the end the user cannot use this link right away, he needs to "assemble it by parts" first.
    Is there a way to prevent mail from doing this?
    Thanks,
    Artemiy.

    Also you could use tinyurl - this is exactly what its designed for.
    ie
    Turn this URL:

  • Download error in (osx) adobe desktop app (corrupted download link).

    Here is a discription of the problem. Please consider that some of the wording might not be correct, as I do have to translate the error message from German into English.
    Using OSX 10.9.2, when clicking inside the adobe desktop app (top of the screen bar) on the tap "apps", the following screen (screenshot) appears, which states, translated from top to bottom:
    download error
    download error. Please contact support.
    (link) contact support
    (link/button) download creative cloud -> This button unfortunatly leads to the following error page "http://www.adobe.com/special/errorpages/404.html"
    All apps, like Bridge, Photoshop, Lightroom, etc. are installed and work just fine. So no problem here. I seem however unable to redownload the desktop app (in order to reinstall). As stated above the provided link inside the desktop app itself is coruppted and within the (online) web-based download centre (user logged in) I am only adviced to use the desktop app. This is a dead end and I do not know what to make of this error, let alone solving it. Please help!

    I am sorry Romsinha but this doesn't really help.
    I already restarted the desktop app and while I am obviously online and connected the problem (error message) remains the same. Information within the "home" tap is recieved/loaded  (little blue spinning wheel) stating that various apps recently have been updated. Yet the same loading wheel within the "apps" tap results in an error. My best guess is that some internal link within the app is corrupted, leading to a source on a server that can not be reached.
    UPDATE
    I clean uninstalled adobe creative cloud as discribed in the article you provided (using the cleaner tool) and even uninstalled the browser plugin. After downloading and reinstalling creative cloud the problem however remains the same. "Apps" tap still shows the same problem. "Home" tap now displays the following:

  • Barra de Navegação cinza e preta encobrindo o link, como resolver?

    Instalei o Kubuntu 14.04 e, após a atualização do sistema, na barra de navegação do Firefox os links ficam encobertos pelas cores cina e preto, impedindo a leitura e atrapalhando a navegação.
    Mudei o esquema de cores padrão do sistema, e alterei o tema Gtk mas não resolveu.
    Desinstalei e reinstalei o Firefox mas o problema persiste.
    O que pode ser feito?

    Hmmm,
    # Na [[Location bar autocomplete|barra de endereços]], escreva '''about:config''' e pressione '''Enter'''. É possível que o aviso ''''Isso pode anular a garantia!'''' apareça.
    # Clique no botão '''Serei cuidadoso, prometo!''', para acessar a página about:config.
    # Procure por '''gfx.xrender.enabled''' e mude seu valor para '''false'''.
    # Reinicie o Firefox.
    Ou tente user o Tema [https://addons.mozilla.org/pt-br/firefox/addon/fxchrome/ FXChrome]

  • Links not getting displayed in the contextual panel

    Hi,
    I have created a contextual panel inside a transparent container. And created a method in the same view supply_values of type supply function to supply the values to the panel.Inside the method I have coded like:
    DATA TAB  TYPE WD_THIS->ELEMENTS_N_VIEW_SWITCH.
      DATA LINE TYPE WD_THIS->ELEMENT_N_VIEW_SWITCH.
      LINE-TEXT    = 'User Manual'. "#EC NOTEXT
      LINE-ENABLED = ABAP_TRUE.
      APPEND LINE TO TAB.
      LINE-TEXT    = 'Logout'. "#EC NOTEXT
      LINE-ENABLED = ABAP_TRUE.
      APPEND LINE TO TAB.
      NODE->BIND_TABLE( TAB ).
    Also in the context of the view I have created a node and supplied the method  'supply_values' in the supply function.Under the node I have 2 attributes named text and enabled. Text is of string type and enabled is of boolean type. In the properties of the contextual panel I have bound the visible property with the enabled attribute.
    Now when I am running this application , links are not getting displayed in the contextual panel. Though when I debug TAB contains the values.  Please suggest if I have missed out something or I need to look into the properties of the contextual panel. Any pointers will be really helpful.
    Regards,
    Ashutosh

    Hi,
    Can you elaborate ' ItemEnable property of ViewSwitch'.
    I have already bound the enable property of the panel with a context attribute of type wdy_boolean  but it is still not working.

  • Links default to wrong folder

    Why is it when I go to relink a placed image in the Links pallette it always directs me to the wrong folder (not the one the image lives in but elsewhere). I believe that it is taken me to the last folder I navigated to. thoughts?

    You now have a prefernce for where relink goes, the last folder you used to link, or the folder where the original link resides. It's in the prefs.

    You've probably found an answer to this by now, but I think this has been addressed in another forum -- The link below suggested using a button and adding the tooltip to the button.

  • Auto-generated links exported from InDesign do not work in tablet apps

    Hyperlinks automatically detected and exported from InDesign CS6 8.0.1 as a PDF work fine on the desktop version of Acrobat Reader. However, on the iPad version of Adobe Reader as well as iBooks and GoodReader, these links are completely ignored, meaning they are just text.
    On the other hand, if I was to manually set the hyperlink in InDesign or Acrobat, the link works fine.
    It would be extremely tedious and time consuming to manually reset hundreds of hyperlinks in my documents since InDesign use to handle this correctly.
    Is this a bug? If so, it's pretty serious and should be Adobe's priority to fix since millions of people read documents on tablet devices.

    No, it's a Feature of Acrobat and reader that they attempt to create links from anything that "looks like" a URL. Other readers lack the feature.
    It's not good practice to depend on this in any case as it's hardly foolproof even in Acrobat. Links that break across lines, for example, will not be properly recognized.

  • How to link excel workbooks in Sharepoint?

    I have a master Excel spreadsheet and other sub excel spreadsheets (all on Sharepoint) that are linked to each other (copied data from one and pasted link to other) so that the Master spreadsheet auto-updates every time a sub document is modified. This
    format works if the documents are hosted on my computer, however, the links become broken if they are hosted on Sharepoint and I get a #REF! message. My goal is to have a master document that is linked to data of other sub spreadsheets and auto-updates when
    they are modified without having to open the sub spreadsheets. I would like to be able to open the master document, refresh it, and have the current data pulled from the linked sub spreadsheets. Any suggestions on how I can do this?

    I have seen this working for some folks in my company. They moved their spreadsheets into SharePoint, and changed the references to other spreadsheets from file paths to be the urls of the items in SharePoint.
