Parameters with Hyperlinks

We want to include links in our html help projects to certain
pages on our website that are available by subscription only. We
were hoping to be able to pass the serial number as a parameter
when they click the link. The target page would then check the
serial number and direct them accordingly. The serial number is
stored in the registry, but we could also place it in a
configuration file if necessary. Any ideas?

Hi
In your last post you refer to a .chm file, but previously
you had talked about web pages so I assumed you were using webhelp.
It is not possible to pass parameters within a .chm file as these
are done with server side software.
I just tried linking this forum to my .chm file and it worked
fine. Even though it was going to a cold fusion page rather than a
static HTML page. I just copied the URL from my browser and linked
it in the .chm. It even logged me in automatically. Of course, this
only works because my computer "remembers" the login and password.
I would think you could achieve what you want if the
installation program could write the correct cookies to automate
access. Then you would only need to create the link to the web
page. I think it would also be possible for the end user to limit
their own access with their security level settings, so I'm not
sure this is a good idea.

    I guess the space between title= and hello is the problem.
    There must not be any space inbetween.
    so instead of
    try
    also if there are spaces or characters like ? = ... in the data of your database the strings have to be escaped. In javascript the function is escape("some string"), I don't know the correct function in java.
    PHP uses urlencode() or rawurlencode() btw.
    Hope that helps

  • Hyperlink Bag : Passing two Parameters to Hyperlink bag

    Hi,
    Pls let me know if any one has worked on how to Pass two parameters to Hyperlink Bag in MSA 5.0.My code is working fine with single Parameter but when I pass two parameter it is throwing an error.
    Appreciate if some one can share a code for the same.

    Hi Ramakrishna,
    Thanks for your prompt reply. I have gone through this document. My requirement is different than what's stated in the document. The users filter their records in the VC application by using more than one filter and press the button called 'Open Query' button. The system then takes them to WAD. The WAD should be able to set the same filter value/s that they select in VC application. But at the moment, it passes only one parameter to WAD regardless of how many filter values that users select in VC. Please suggest on this matter.
    Thanks.

  • Compact Journal - RFEPOJ00 - Print List with hyperlinks not working ECC 5.0

    Hello,
    Has anyone run into any issues with running the compact journal report and hyperlinks in 5.0?
    I’m not getting the hyperlink functionality to work when I execute the job in the background and I have optical archiving box check. I have set up all the customizing and I can run the test report OACONTA2 report and successfully produce a printlist with hyperlinks. When I run the same process for RFEPOJ00 I get a printlist but without hyperlinks.  The same process works just fine in 4.7 or 4.6C.
    I have found nothing in OSS
    Any Ideas?

  • Sorting not working in a report with hyperlinks

    I have a report with hyperlinks for one column and I noticed that sorting is no longer working on that report. If I use another version of the same report witout hyperlinks; sorting does work fine.
    I was wondering if anyone has encountered this issue before and what would be the solution.
    Thanks!

    I didn't remove the sorts and was trying to sort again on another column.
    So this is resolved.
    Now another issue; when viewing this report in Interactive mode; the column with hyperlinks doesn't have the sort option when I right click on that column. The sort option does show up but it's grayed out (disabled). When I go to Edit mode; it does allow me to sort on that column.
    Anyone has noticed this?

  • How to place an indesign page with hyperlinks in another indesign file, such that the links work?

    I have a page of text with hyperlinks in a master indesign file.
    I place that file into another indesign file.
    (It is like an html include file for a webpage.In this way i only have to update the file in one place.)
    But when i export the indesign file to pdf, the hyperlinks fail to work.
    They work in the original but not in the second.
    Does anyone have any suggestions?
    Abby Eagle

    My apologies. My tests were done using URLs. They function in Acrobat regardless of their state in InDesign.
    Aside to Bob: Since I had just made a PDF that worked, I mistook your "Since when" to mean since when won't a placed ID file work? I guess I was blind sided by the fact that the only hyperlinks I ever come into contact with are full URLs.
    If Abbey's situation is as I envisioned -- that the placed files are more akin to smaller graphics within the layout of a page rather than discreet pages at all -- then is this not a insolvable problem given how InDesign works now?

  • Query parameters with the same name and different values

    According to HTTP, multiple query or post parameters with the
    same name and different values are permitted. They are transfered
    over the wire in the following format -
    name1=val1&name1=val2&name1=val3
    The problem is that I can't see anyway of assigning multiple
    parameters with the same name and different values to the request
    object of mx.rpc.http.HTTPService. I have tried using the
    flash.utils.Dictionary object as it does strict key comparison but
    that doesn't work too. I have tried setting an array of values to a
    property of the request object but that sends the request to the
    server in the following format -
    name1=val1,val2,val3
    The java servlet engines throw exceptions when they see this.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you're not on 8.1.4 move there. 8.1.3 had limitations in the wsrp
    release.

    You cannot save word files to pdf using reader. When you click a link (in Reader or in the browser using the Reader plugin) you open the url in your browser (what browser)? We need detailed information to help.

  • Insert a spreadsheet and word docs into a PDF with hyperlinks

    I have a spreadsheet index with hyperlinks to 455 single page word docs. I want to make a single pdf by inserting the spreadsheet followed by the word docs.
    Is there a way of having the hyperlinks recognize the inserted word docs pages inside the pdf via the original hyperlinks, or do I need to remove the hyperlinks before inserting the spreadsheet and then do bookmarks for all 455 pages? Or some other method?

    James,
    I doubt that will work. But it should be easy enough to find out. If you
    print to pdf from ID, I guarantee is will not work. If you export from
    ID, I doubt it will work, but ask in the ID forum, since the creation
    does not depend upon Acrobat.

  • How to get the UIDRef of Text frame associated with hyperlink?

    Hi,
    I have a document which contains Text hyperlinks . I am able to get the number of hyperlinks present in document using "IHyperlinkTable" and text range to which hyperlink is associated using interface "IHyperlink".
    InterfacePtr<IHyperlink> hyperlink(tableDb, table->GetNthHyperlink(i), IID_IHYPERLINK);
    if(hyperlink)
           hyperlink->GetName(&sHyperlinkName); //sHyperlinkName is text to which hyperlink is associated
    now I need to find the UIDRef of Text frame with which hyperlink is associated.
    I can get the UIDRef of "Image frame" using interface "IHyperlinkPageItemSourceData".
    InterfacePtr<IHyperlinkPageItemSourceData> sourceHyperLink (tableDb, hyperlink->GetSourceUID(), UseDefaultIID());
    if (sourceHyperLink)
            UID sourceHyperLinkUID  = sourceHyperLink->GetSourceUID();
    but this interface may be not helpful in case of text in the frame (word/words) associated with hyperlink.
    If anyone has done this please do let me know.
    Thank you all in advance.

  • Passing multiple URL parameters with same name

    Hi,
    I have a question which is not entirely related to Java. But although its related HTTP calls, so I thought I might get some ideas here.
    Background:
    I am making HTTP URL call from SAP ABAP code. Its pretty much similar to Java (creating URL connection, setting HTTP headers, connecting, receiving response and everything)
    For example,
    http://service_server:8080/a7/extension.services.SearchRequirements.a7x?RequestStatus=CR&RequestStatus=RR
    Now, this service_server runs a query to database where it uses both these values of "RequestStatus" to form 'OR' condition for a field.
    Issue:
    When I run this URL from browser, it shows XML response containing results for both values. In short, this is the ideal response.
    (I am using getParameterValues(string) at service_server to read multiple values for same parameter)
    But when I see response in SAP system, I see that it is returning data for only one value of 'RequestStatus'.
    I checked the logs of service_server, and I see that it has received only one parameter, not two.
    Question:
    It seems like SAP systems web server is truncating both parameters with same name and passing just one of them to outside server(??)
    Is there any configuration at Web Server side or any HTTP headers to be set so as to avoid this?
    Can anybody suggest something on this?

    I managed to resolve this issue by using HTTP 'Post' method to send the data.

    With "Import as Layer" you could import another PDF to a new layer.
