Opening html links

I have a Word document with several embedded links to files, some of these are pdf's and they will not open.
As you "ctrl Click" on the link the Adobe frame opens up and immediately shuts down very quickly.
Pdf's are recognised files and can be easily opened by "double clicking" on them through explorer.
It doesn't matter where the file resides or who does it.

Which version of Adobe Acrobat?

  • Is there an automator script that automatically opens html links contained in a .txt file?

    I want to make safari automatically open any html files that I email to myself using Send to Dropbox. I need an automator workflow that will automatically open any html files that are sent as .txt to a certain folder in my dropbox. This is the code I currently have:
    ARGV.each do |f|
    file = File.new(f, “r”)
    while (line = file.gets)
    system “open #{line}”
    end
    file.close
    end
    What am I doing wrong?
    This is taken from this post: http://www.macstories.net/tutorials/how-to-send-any-webpage-from-ios-to-your-mac -browser/#comment-146806660.
    As a side note, does anyone know of an easy way to send links to iphone and vice-versa? I know there is the icloud tabs option but I want something that will automatically open when I click send. It ***** that Google Chrome already has the feature and it works perfectly but Apple has yet to adopt such an extension. I find it pretty useful.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    I forgot to mention that I keep getting this error...

  • Occasional problem opening HTML attachments to Calendar Events

    Does anyone know why I sometimes get the following screen when tryint to open HTML links that I add as attachments to calendar events?  Sometime the links work flawlessly and sometimes I get this screen which requires 4-10 "cancels" to remove from view.  then the site I was trying to reach is in a raw, disabled format.  Thanks!!

    These two links should help out, courtesy of dmfs.org and dyndns.org:

    This was driving me nuts. Bought a new laptop and boom, try to check my icloud mail and the same symptoms you described plagued me. Thought Windows 8 had to be the culprit until I saw your post and screenshot. Good luck getting your issues resolved. There isn't much sympathy for Windows users and their silly little problems around here...

  • HT5373 Can html links be attached to events?

    Does anyone know why I sometimes get the following screen when tryint to open HTML links that I add as attachments to calendar events? Sometime the links work flawlessly and sometimes I get this screen which requires 4-10 "cancels" to remove from view. then the site I was trying to reach is in a raw, disabled format. Thanks!!
    For example, I am trying to help my daughter study for a science test and want to attach this link to an event in my icloud calendar that reminds her to study and provides this link/attachment as a resource. but when I try to copy the link from my browser ( http://www.neok12.com/Digestive-System.htm) it inserts this instead https://p14-caldav.icloud.com/Digestive-System.htm. When I click on that link I am asked to enter a user name and password to get past the Microsoft Security Window. 
    This does not happen every time I paste a link and I am stumped!

    You can add as many css files as you like.
    Just name sure you are referencing them correctly.

  • How Do I Make HTML Links Open in Same Window?

    Hi
    How on earth do I get the HTML links inside a flash movie open up in the same browser window where said movie is embedded in (As opposed to opening up as a new pop-up windows)? Here is the code I have inside each of the buttons I have inside my flash movie:
    var link7:URLRequest=new URLRequest("videos/december.html");
    videos_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked7);
    function buttonClicked7(event:MouseEvent):void
    navigateToURL(link7);

  • Open a JspDynPage from a html link

    I would like to link a jps to the JspDynPage. I think that it would be able to do it through the "pcd". For example:
    - I have the SAP customer login screen (original) and i want to add a "link" (Forgotten PIN) to link with the JspDynPage (Java controller).
    Is it possible to do it? Does anyone know how? Do i go in right way?
    Thanks in advance.

    The code was lightsout.class, not #.class...
    I just want an HTML link to open a JAVA JFrame. Would a button work instead of an HTML link? Here's the beginning/initialization of my JFrame:
    public lightsout() {
              frame = new JFrame("LightsOut");
              frame.setSize(new Dimension(700, 700));
              frame.setTitle("Lights Out!");
              frame.setLocation(50, 50);
              frame.setResizable(false);
              japplet.setFocusable(false);
              frame.setAlwaysOnTop(true);
              Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
              int height = screenSize.height;
              int width = screenSize.width;
              frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
              frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());

  • Program to read html file and to open the links in that html file

    program to read html file and to open the links in that html file..
    ex:- to read automatically all next links in the html file and save it hard disk

    Start here;

    It gives you all of the information you need to parse the HTML file using the HTMLEditorKit that is a part of the Java SDK.
    Once you get the links from the file, then you can think about connecting to each.

  • Preserving HTML links when converting Word docs

    I created a document in MS Word for Mac 2011 (ver 14.5.2)
    When I used Adobe Pro 11 to convert the document into pdf format, all the HTML links are lost. 
    I have tried converting from MS Word, opening the word version with Adobe Pro, printing from MS Word to pdf.  Nothing works. Even opened the MS Word document using Apple's Pages software, re-formatted and then converted to pdf.  Still no live links.
    Best work around so far is to convert and then use the edit feature in Adobe Pro to re-insert the HTML links as invisible rectangles on top of the still-blue-and- underlined text.  So to the user it looks like the html links are still live, but what a pain for editor.
    I have seen this issue raised in other posts, but none of the answers seem to work. And the work around described above is clearly less than ideal.
    Very curious, as reading other posts, the issue apparently does not arise when the word doc converted from a Wintel computer.  But I can't imagine Adobe writes software one way for Intel and another for Mac.

    Imagine it. this has been 15 year fued between Microsoft and Adobe.  Adobe Claims that Mac office doesn't hav ethe proper hooks for URLs. Microsoft says the fault is with adobe.
    Since a Word Created file will work when opened in the windows version  and saved as a PDF, the links work just fine. Just opening and not saving, but converted to Pdf does nothing to the actual Word File.
    They had it fixed last year  in Acrobat X if your dropped the file on to Acroabt directly. But broke it again with the upgrade to XI.
    IF you have iWork and Open the word file in Pages then exported as a Word.docx file then create The PDF the links will become active.  Also if you Open in OpenOffice and export as docx file the resulting PDF when open in Word and PDF is Created the links will become active.
    If you have neither you will have to open the PDF and add the links. Note the Links will be hot (active) but the links will not turn Blue and  be Underlined
    Mac Office2011 is a Conversion of Office2010/2007 code.  So there should be no pproblem.
    Also Don't use the Save As . . .  PDF Method. Instead go to Print Menu  click on PDF wait for context menu > the choos Adobe Quality PDF or Adobe PDF (uses Adobe's PDF engine).
    wait for next screen that shows qualtity leave as sent unles you need specific job options. click okay then next screen File name. Rename as necessary the browser to desired to location then click save.  Or you can drop the saved Word document (with Word quit.) on to Acrobat and after a minute or so the PDF will be created. (Using this method in AcrobatX would actully show URL s or Mailtos as active - They broke this in Acrobat XI PDF still can be created but hot links no longer work).
    Well it seems it does work on occasion  see: http://www.screencast.com/t/cib2kcYG

  • Open quicktime link in new window

    iweb has been incredibly easy to figure out for me so far, except this: i can't get it to open my links to quicktime files in a new window. (would also like the new window to match the size of the player, not open a full size window.) i dont happen to be using a .mac account.
    tried just about everything i can find on the web but no luck...
    im doing a film site, have put up still images on page, want to click on them and have a small window pop up containing the quicktime file, leaving the rest of the page available behind it. i have the quicktime files all ready, but no idea what next...
    barely know a thing about html btw, which is why ive enjoyed iweb so far. is this possible? thanks for any info...

    Use some javascript code to open your QuickTime files in a new browser window.
    iWeb 2 allows "snippets" of code (copy/paste simple) or you can "hand edit" the published html file for your page to add them. Learning the basics of html will make this easier.
    One of my very old pages as an example:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/bushbashquiz/index.html
    A "quiz" I borrowed from a CNN page. Hand editing allowed me to change the questions and add my own answers.
    Below the quiz are some "pop-up" windows (all done with javascript) that have some video examples in QuickTime formats. The "Flash" versions no longer display properly in QuickTime 7.4 so do not click on them.
    Reading the page source code will show you how it was done. Learning more about html page coding will explain what you're reading.
    It's as easy or as hard as you try to make it.

  • Opening a link from one iframe into another

    Hello,
    I have a web template in which there are three iframes. Each Iframe has a different web template embedded in it. I want to open a link present in one iframe into another.
    Example:
    iframe 1 (id: left) contains a link google dot com (or a link to a different web template)
    when i click on the link, i want this page to open in iframe 2 (id: right)
    Can anyone help me on how this can be done? I'm working in WAD7.0 and hence iframes.
    Another question related to this is:
    Can we create resizable iframes? In the older version of WAD, HTML was used and this was possible through framesets.
    In NEW WAD 7.0, XHTML does not support framesets. So is there any other way to do it?
    Regards,
    Sameer

    Either file is corrupt, theres' a corresponding .idlk file in the same folder, or it isn't really an indesign file.
    How was the file transfered? What is the file extension?

  • Is there a way to select MULTIPLE tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs and titles/or URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; However, I prefer to use a Firefox feature rather than download an add on. Thanks.

    Currently, I can copy ONE tab's url and nothing else (not its name). Or I can bookmark all tabs that are open. However, I'd like to have the ability to select multiple tabs and then copy ALL of the the URLs AND their titles/or copy ALL of the URLs+titles+HTML links? This can be done with the Multiple Tab Handler add on; when I download the add on, I get a message saying that using the add on will disable Firefox's tab features. I prefer to use Firefox features rather than download and use an add on. Is there a way to do this without an add on?

    Hi LRagsdale517,
    You should definitely be able to upload multiple files by Shift-clicking or Ctrl-clicking the files you want to upload. Just to make sure you don't have an old version of the service cached, please clear the browser cache and then log in to https://cloud.acrobat.com/files. After clicking the File Upload icon in the upper-right corner, you should be able so select multiple files for upload.
    Please let us know how it goes.
    Best,

  • How to use JavaScript to Open a link automatically

    Is there a method (using JavaScript) to allow a user clicked link to open the link through a “intermediary” page?
    For example, say I have a web page with a embedded Flash file that contains links to several different (outside) web pages. The behavior I want is that the user clicks a link (within the Flash file), a HTML window opens (over the 1st HTML/Flash window) with the new content, leaving the original Flash/HTML window displayed in the background. The user reads the new content. The user can then close the newer window and be back at the displayed HTML/Flash file.
    The twist is that the link embedded in the referring Flash/HTML file goes to a “intermediary page”. Call that the “collector” page. I control that page. On that page I have collected (in a list) all the actual outside URLs (I do this so that I can easily change the URLs using HTML rather than having to edit the Flash file.) The Flash file contains essentially the same URL for each outside location (plus a variable unique to a specific URL).
    The user should not ever actually see this intermediary/collector page. Instead, they click the link, a variable is passed from the referring page to the collector page and fires the corresponding link automatically (replacing the content in the newly created window). Since the link fires automatically the content in the new window (initially created by the collector page) changes to the destination content.
    Is this possible?
    What JavaScript functions are used?
    How are the referring links constructed in the Flash so the variable is passed to the collector page?
    How does the “collector” page auto open the actual content?
    If anyone can point me to descriptions on how this might be done I’d certainly appreciate it.

    >is there a way i can call javascript without security checking?
    It wouldn't be security if you could just bypass it. Did you read all
    the security notes? You might be able to do something with trusted
    functions, but I'm not sure how that would integrate with a plug-in.

  • Can you force a link inside a .pdf to open the "linked to" document in a new window?

    When I have a link inside my .pdf document - linking to another .pdf document or to a Word document - how can I force the linked-to document to open in a new window?
    I have a web site (business internal, so unfortunately I cannot point to it).  My HTML menu has links to .pdf documents - no problem.  However, once I open those .pdfs, they contain links to other .pdfs and to Word documents.  Clicking on these links, which reside inside my .pdfs, opens the "linked-to" docs in the same page.  How can I force them to open in a brand new frame?
    All of my .pdfs were originally created in Word, and in the Word versions, the links DO open into new frames.  I am not sure why, when I convert them to .pdfs, they lose this feature.
    Can anyone help?

    Hi Magenta,
    Would you mind reposting this question over on the Acrobat boards?  You've posted in the AIR forum and you'll have better luck with this over there.

  • Adding a html link to a carousel

    i have followed a tutorial to build a flash craousel and have had no problems in building that.  i wanted to add a html link to a section of the carousel but everything i have tried up to now has failed.  All the information is passed through to the carousel from an xml file and everything works fine except for the link.
    i have slightly modified the tutorial so i have an extra box on the information page which holds the web address for the site they are looking at in the portfolio.  i have the address showing up but i cannot use the text as a link.
    the box that i am putting it in is a dynamic text box which has been set up with the following settings
    theLink.html = true;
    theLink.htmlText = t.Link;
    so as far as i know these are set to be able to handle html tags/code but they are not playing games.
    i have tried to pass the link through to the swf file from the xml file with the following code but this just seem to break the whole application.
    Link="<![CDATA[<a href='http://www.acmeart.co.uk/pip_new']]"
    to view how i have the file working upto now please view the link below.
    http://acmeart.co.uk/carousel
    i feel the problem is not with the flash application but more with how i am trying to pass the html link over to the application from the xml file.  i will attach the xml file to the post.

    What I had in mind was to place the link inline in your text. Something like this:
    <item name="valley" full="assets/valley.png"
            title='Book - CD ROM'
            body='This product was a Shockwave holiday card. It began as a jigsaw puzzle. As the puzzle was solved, it opened and displayed the holiday greeting. &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.amazon.com" &gt;Purchase a copy.&lt;a\&gt;'>
        </item>
    The url is right in the text. The html markup is escaped as html entities.

  • What can I do if all HTML links refresh site instead of redirecting properly (FF only, HTML 1.0 Strict valid, no plugins) just after using autocompleted url?

    I was testing a XHTML 1.0 Strict valid website on my localhost. It had URL "http://localhost/visaita/tictactoe/Web/index.php?item_id=8&game_password=73|55fc84c0c432ad625a901caaa13108aa&chat_code=74|50b3b60c8be203.98819772#.ULO2EnC23XQ". If I click in URL field between 8 and ?. Then pres shift + end and delete the rest of URL, I get a drop down of suggestions. Then I press arrow left in my keyboard - suggestions dissappear. I press enter and my URL is immediately reset to initial one (with all arguments) even though I wanted to delete them. Server receives all the arguments, so this is not the case of a back-end redirection (tested).
    The most interesting effect is that after such refresh ALL HTML LINKS stop working. They refresh page instead of redirecting. Even if I click on a link redirecting to another domain, page still gets refreshed and not redirected. I see it as an obvious and serious bug which happens in very special conditions.
    All FF plugins and add-ons disabled. Tested in safe mode as well. One interesting fact is that this page is opened by a redirect from another page (JavaScript performs redirect), but the page where error happens does not contain any JavaScript redirection code. Error console is also empty.
    During these redirects FireBug (when enabled) displays interesting stuff. It shows that request without arguments is pending infinitely while immediately after it another request is launched with all unwanted arguments.
    Another interesting fact is that page is using late polling AJAX technique (not sure whether it has any impact).
    It seems that it is some caching bug.

    Autocompleted URL does not seem to be related in order to provoke the bug. If I press Esc and then immediately press on links, they all work fine. Without pressing Esc, if long polling is in action, all links redirect the same page. Long polling request happens for no longer that 2 minutes and then there is a 1 second JS delay before the next one. If links are pressed between calls, they work fine.
    The strange thing though is that my friend has prepared a simple script which is generating a long polling request and has a link to Google. This test works, so I am trying to understand whether there is any additional factor which is causing the problem. Perhaps it can be due to having redirects and 2 simultaneous long polling requests at the same time. Doing my best to understand the problem. Not sure what is happening although I am quite sure that problem is caused by the FF browser somehow. Tested everything back and forth.
