RH6: External Links Won't Open

In the newest issue I've encountered compiling RH5 projects
with RH6, none of the several hundred external file links work in
IE7: the file will not open.
I ran a file compare on the published version of one RH6
topic with its RH5 equivalent -- they are
exactly the same except for the meta name="generator"
company name and URL and this line at the top in the RH6 version:
<!-- saved from url=(0014)about:internet -->
So, it doesn't appear to be the individual file, but a goober
somewhere in the output which is preventing the links from working.
BTW, the RH5 version works fine.
Any ideas where to look for the culprit?
Thanks!

...well, I inadvertently lied: I have two layouts, unchecked
Mark of the Web for one, compiled and opened the other. Not smart,
but in my defense, I've been distracted....
So here's the deal: the layout with Mark of the Web
checkmarked [per Adobe's copious Help, "Select this option
if you do not want your output (which is saved on your computer) to
be blocked in Internet Explorer 6, and later."] will
not open externally linked files. Period.
With Mark of the Web
unchecked, those externally linked files open just as
expected.
I'm confused. If I can't open externally linked files with
Mark of the Web checked, isn't that "blocking" -- at least of some
sort?
Anyway, Peter, good wild guess -- but I sure don't know how
to deal with this "solution"...<G>

  • External links won't open to my satisfaction in Safari

    I use to have multiple open Safari-Windows, each with multiple tabs. When I click on a link in Mail, I'd like that link to open in a new tab (what it does) in the window I used last (what it doesn't, instead it opens in the first window I opened). Is there a way to force the link to open in a specific window?

    could you check the link, sometimes the link may be incorrect.
    Try with Firefox Beta

  • Some u-tube links won't open

    SOME u-tube links won't open in a mail message. I get a message saying 'an error occurred, try again later'.
    They never open 'later'. Is there a work-around, or do I need a plug-in or something.
    Thanks

    The forum software says you are using Firefox 19, can you update to Firefox 22 and see if this is fixed, is not can you try the super-beta verion of firefox, espically if youve upgraded to 4.3 it may be causing some problems.

  • Link won't open in goddaddy website builder tool

    Links won't open when I try to preview using Go daddy website builder tool. I contacted Go Daddy and they said the tool works as designed on their side and suggested that it may be a browser issue. My question is that is there anything I can do to check my browser settings (i.e. security , etc.) that may correct this issue? I also need to check which version of Firefox is installed, I believe my latest version is 6.0 , not sure?

    Please post the link so we can look it over.

  • Some YouTube links won't open

    Sometimes a YouTube link won't open in a message in Apple Mail. The YouTube window opens when the link is clicked, but after trying to start the movie, says: "an error occurred, please try again later". I checked the finder-window-activity pane as ordered, and there were 6 of about 20 items that said "forbidden" in red letters. It gave no instructions on how to fix them, however.
    These same links open on our MacBook laptop and iPad with no problem! What gives?
    I tried to post this earlier, and got no response after a week. I reformulated the question with more information.
    Thanks

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • External links won't work once published

    Hi, I'm self taught so don't always understand everything and I'm a complete novice with iWeb, used Front Page before getting a Mac.
    I'm in the process of building a new website using iWeb and I'm having problems with getting links to external pages to work.  They work fine in iWeb.  'Enable as a hyperlink' and 'make hyperlinks active' is ticked for all links.  I've formatted the links to be coloured red, then orange when visited and blue with an underline on roll over, grey if disabled. All works fine in iWeb but then when I publish the links won't work.  They will momentarily and then they won't.  If I refresh the page then one or two will work but when you go back to the page they won't work again.  I've deleted them all and redone them, still the same problem.  Tried it in Safari and Firefox, same problem.  Deleted the site from the server and republished, same problem.  Anyone got any ideas?
    On the page in question I have a widget to SkyScanner, thought that was maybe causing a conflict.  Deleted it and republished, same problem.
    Here's a link to the page I'm having problems with http://www.marbella-rentals.co.uk/MarbellaRentals/flights.html and it's the links to airlines on the right that I can't get to work.
    Also I have another couple of questions.  How do you resample images?  I have used a background image on the pages and I've managed to get it to stay static by altering the code slightly but don't know how to resample it so that the page will load quickly.  Ditto with all the rest of my images.  Don't want to have to resize them all manually if possible.  Also, with the background image I don't know what size I should make it if I was to do it manually.
    Last question... How do you change the title of your page and add a favicon?
    If anyone can help me would be much appreciated.
    Thanks

    You have an image covering some of the hyperlinks - GraphPaper_01_3.png
    Do a Command A on the iWeb page to find it.
    Your background image seems to load OK. Use an optimizer to to get it and the whole site to download faster...

    See this page for howw to add a favicon...

    To add title tag and meta description you need to open each HTML file post publishing and add them with an editor app. More conveniently, you can use iWeb SEO Tool...

  • Anyone know why pdf links won't open? also- malware has hijacked the downloadable file available when clicking on Adobe's file:

    Changed OS to Mavericks & pdf links from websites won't open. I also had private browsing on  in safari.
    I have acrobat 10.1.10.  I tried to update it when prompted  by auto-updates and it said it can't because  the product has been changed since installed. that can only be the switch to mavericks osx. But it might have prompted me to get version 11 though I only have version 10 & I did the version 10 update in mid-Sept.
    Then, I tried going to adobe.com, searched "upda" and got a list of the cs items with icons, plus two text only links, one was acrobat for mac and the last one, "Update manager update (Mac OS)". It said it is to "resolve a common issue with Adobe Update manager on Mac OS". I cliucked that and got some bogus file. When I hit the button on adobe's site, it shows that the file name should be Adobeupdatemanager403.dmg or something very similar to that. Instead in the download list /box I got " installjdownloader.dmg"  I clicked it once & saw terms of service in which they will switch you to use only their search engine, serve ads, etc. So luckily I didn't install it.
    Does adobe need to investigate this malware problem? Others might search the way I did.
    Anyway, this all started because after installing mavericks, i can't open any pdfs from the web.
    Can anyone help me? Thank you very much in advance.

  • URL Links won't open pages in browser

    Hi, I'm in a Connect session right now, and every time I try to open a link (via a shared powerpoint, or using "Browse To" in a Web Links object, or clicking a url in a chat window) instead of opening a browser page the system tries to download the HTML file and open it for editing.  I'm sure this has something to do with a Flash or Connect setting, but I can't find where to look.  And I can't use the in-Connect Help, because it won't open!    If anyone can help me figure out what's wrong and how I can fix it I'd really appreciate it.

    Hi,
    First of all click Safari/Reset Safari, next click Safari/Preferences/Extensions and turn off extensions. The re-test
    If the problem persists, try using safari in safe mode:
    Use this link to see how to do this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564
    If Safari works ok in safe mode, then your problem points to something 3rd party related.

  • Clicking on External Link in Safari Opens New Tab

    I think it has to do with one of the preferences I've set within Safari but I just can't put a finger on which one.
    Basically, I reinstalled Yosemite 10.10.3 on my MacBook Pro 13" (Late 2013) about a week ago. And then I tinkered with Safari preferences.
    Since then, whenever I click on an external link, for example, an email address, Safari opens a New Tab instead of launching my Mail app.
    Not sure how to do undo this.

    From the Mail menu bar, select
              Mail ▹ Preferences... ▹ General ▹ Default email reader: Mail
    If you don't use Mail, you may be able to set the preference in the mail client you do use.

  • Lacie External Drive Won't Open iTunes Or iPhoto Libraries?

    I have copied my iPhoto and iTunes libraries onto my external Lacie hard drive and they won't open. All other copied files are fine including iMovies. iPhoto and iTunes have worked in the past. I am at a loss as to what has gone wrong.Any help would be much appreciated.

    David
    So your sure the app is pointed to the correct Library? Did you go through the step above?
    Have a look in Home/Pictures... is there a iPhoto Library Folder in there? If there is, look in that folder and see if there's a file called library.iPhoto?
    (For iTunes, do the same in Home/Music...
    Assuming that the app is pointing to the correct Library on the External HD:
    Try rebuilding the Library: hold down the apple and option keys, then launch iPhoto. Use the dialogue box to rebuild the Library. Choose all four options.
    If that doesn't work, you may have a corrupted Library. Is the External formatted for Mac. Many disks come formatted for WIndows by default. Check this at Disk Utility. Select the disk in the Left Hand Pane and on the right hand side you'll see the format of the disk on the drop down menu.

  • Links won't open

    Hi there,
    Really stuck with something...my firefox won't open most links when i click on them. It seems to be more of a problem with the links that are represented by graphics, i.e. a button that says "browse" when going to upload photos.
    Sometimes i can right click and choose open link in new tab etc but it doesn't always work. I'm working on a MacBook Pro running on sno leopard and have tried every setting i can find but still no joy.
    It must be something to do with the settings rather than a fault, as when i log into my own account on the same mac (instead of my partners) it works fine.
    Please could you suggest what i could do to fix this.
    Many Thanks
    Angie

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.

  • E-mail links won't open when Firefox is my default browser, Sup??

    When Firefox is my default browser, links in my e-mail or web sites that open in my e-mail, do not open. Right clicking on the link doesn't do anything for me. When I click on the link the border of the page dims and brightens but no access to the linked page and no error messages. This requires me to use IE as my default browser, that opens links fine, which my whole psychic/genetic makeup abhors. It seems that no one knows what is wrong or how to fix the problem. I tried the chat room but was never able to get through and now it is removed. Is there ANY way to get an answer/solution to this problem?
    PS My XP desktop computer Firefox works fine.

    I still have this problem and now it is starting to affect the browsers functionality and useability. When Firefox is my default browser any link outside of Firefox won't open which is becoming a nuisance. I am running Windows 7 which may be the cause of the problem via a setting but I can't locate the needle in the haystack or it may have happened at a Firefox update. Firefox has been my favorite and only browser since Netscape 1.0 but if I can't resolve this problem I will have to switch to another which I really don't want to do. Help!!!
