Send URL from firefox to Evolution

When I want to send a webpage's URL from Firefox to Evolution, I click on the "Email a link to this page" icon in Firefox.
The problem is, the link is not clickable. Is there a way I can set it up?

Thanks Trilby.
Sorry I didn't make it clear. Yes, that has been set up. And the problem I'm having is, the URL is actually sent to a new message to be composed in Evolution. Just that the link in that message is not clickable. So, the receiver of the email will not be able to open the webpage that I want him/her to see by simply clicking on the link because it is not clickable.

I have used Firefox for many years. Now I can receive E-mail but cannot send it from Firefox. Just re-installed Mozilla and still cann't send E-mail.....

I cannot send mail from Firefox. Can receive E-mail but cannot send it. This worked OK until today. I have had firefox for many years. Just reinstalled Mozilla and still cannot send E-mail from firefox.
I use comcast.net for E-mail,using Mozilla to get there.

If your Office email account's SMTP authenticated?
Any error message provided and if so, what?
Are you also accessing an email account and SMTP server provided by SBCGlobal.net with either email client and if so, are you able to send messages with this account and SMTP server when connected to the internet via SBCGlobal.net at home?
And let me get this straight - both email clients work fine without any problems sending messages with your Office email account and SMTP server when connected to the internet at a friend's house that uses another ISP besides SBCGlobal.net but this is an Apple problem?
If an Apple problem, then you'd have problems sending messages with this account and SMTP server regardless whose network and ISP you are connected to.
Regardless what this more than likely under-trained or just unaware person at SBCGlobal.net told you, all ISPs have restrictions on using an SMTP server that is outside of their network or that isn't provided by the ISP used for connecting to the internet.
Some ISPs allow the use of an authenticated server only that is outside of their network but some block its use regardless.
Within the last year or so, SBCGlobal.net made a drastic change in regards to such restrictions and conveniently neglected to inform their customers beforehand. Those using an SMTP server that was outside of SBCGlobal.net's network regardless if the SMTP server was authenticated were required to "opt out" of Port 25 blocking with SBCGlobal.net in order to use an SMTP server that was outside of their network which was working fine before this change was made.
Have you opted out of Port 25 blocking with SBCGlobal.net?

Send URL from Mail to Safari

You know how you can easily send a URL from Safari to Mail (Shift-Command-I)? Why can't you do that in reverse?
I want to be able to email myself at home from work with a URL in the body of the message. I want a Mail rule and Automator (or applescript if necessary) to take that URL from the message body and send it to Safari which will go to the URL. The URL can be either a web page or downloadable file.

Zach Barocas,
With the webpage open, tap on the "+" symbol at the bottom and choose " "Mail Link to this Page".

Send URL from Safari to Delicious via Applescript

TIP: this will get the url, send it to a window loading delicious api, set the window nicely to a dialog kind of size, tags etc etc. After logged in it will remember the account settings ofcourse...
This is the best option for me as I can try to make it crossplatform. As Firefox 3 has not as much extensions at the moment... yet as well as other beta browsers etc etc
I was searching for a simpel solution yest working and this is working allright.
Next step is a widget for all my bookmarks... sure there is one??? or not...
Ciao!
Applescript to save url bookmark to Delicious from Safari :
Note : account name you have to set in the url pretty straightforward,,,,
Valentijn, Netherlands
tell application "Safari"
set theurl to (get URL of document 1)
end tell
tell application "Safari"
activate
open location "http://del.icio.us/YOURACCOUNTNAME?noui=yes&jump=close&url=" & theurl
set bounds of window 1 to {200, 200, 900, 550}
end tell

Hello Kappy,
maybe my question was misleadingly formulated.
I use Safari (by Apple) on Macbook Air (by Apple) and when sending links I want to use OS Yosemite Mail App (by Apple).
Currently Chrome is opened. I DON'T want to use chrome.
Mail App INSTEAD of chrome.
I hope this IS the right place to ask the question: How do I teach safari to send mails by the native OS X mail app?

Send Link From Firefox to Mail.app

I've been using Firefox since upgrading to Snow Leopard because my favorite plug-in for Safari doesn't work in Snow Leo yet. One thing I really miss from Safari is the ability to send a link to the current webpage I'm on straight to Mail.app. Mail would create a new message with the link in the body and the website title as the subject. I want to re-create this in Firefox, but I haven't been able to find a Firefox add on or plug-in that does it. I know there's a "send link" command in Firefox, but for some reason it doesn't work. Is there a way to use Applescript to make a script that would take the URL of the current website I'm on and send that link to Mail and paste it into a new email?

I know there's a "send link" command in Firefox, but for some reason it doesn't work.
I just checked with the French version of Firefox 3.5.3. On my computer, the “send link” command (« Envoyer un lien vers la page… » in French) works perfectly well in Snow Leopard.
Nevertheless, the following script should do what you are asking for:
tell application "Firefox" to activate
tell application "System Events"
keystroke "l" using {command down} -- select the URL
delay 0.25
keystroke "c" using {command down} -- copy the URL to the clipboard
end tell
delay 0.25
tell application "Mail"
set newMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {content:(the clipboard) & return & return, visible:true}
activate
end tell
If you wish to improve the above script, you might have a look at the example script “Create New Message.scpt” in the folder “Library/Scripts/Mail Scripts” of your Macintosh HD.
Message was edited by: Pierre L. — added two “delay 0.25” (hoping it will work properly now)

Send URL from R/3 inbox message

Have a quick question We are looking into using a Webdynpro application to process workflow for requisitions release strategy. I have workflow working on R/3 side and am using ABAP program RSWUWFML2 to send R/3 inbox workitems to outlook email but the problem I have is sending an URL in the email message. This program is designed to send link to SAP workitem.
Is there an easy way to send email message based on workitems that contains a URL. This URL will point to a Webdynpro app
- Keith

Hi Keith,
are you working with WAS 6.40-> and/or are you using the Universal Worklist to host the work items?
If you don't have the UWL, you need the link to directly point to the WD application. Based on your design approach, you then either need the object key or the work item ID as import parameters for the WD application.
A good way I think to make this happen is to have a separate email send step in the workflow before the task. In this step, you can include a link pointing to the web dynpro app with the required parameters in the task description.
If you however have the UWL in place, I suggest you use extended notifications (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/d5/581ee8d56f1247bf34cfcd66d16d81/frameset.htm) instead of RSWUWFML2 to achieve this. With it, you can directly make the link point to the work item ID. From there on, you can make it UWL's responsibility to launch the WD app properly (use SWF_VISU or manual config to define the action handlers).
But to summarize, I don't think RSWUWFML2 is a good option regardless if you're on was6.40-> or not. If you have an older system, you can't use it to include the WD params. And if you're on it, extended notifications do the trick better.
Hope this helps,
Mikko

Why are round brackets escaped when copy/pasting URLs from Firefox, in contravention of RFC3987?

Go to any site, and add a 'hash fragment' to the end of the URL that contains round brackets. Copy that URL out of Firefox and paste into a text editor, like so:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/#%28testing%29
Note that the round brackets have been escaped into %28 and %29 characters.
RFC3987 specifies that "(" and ")" are 'gen-delimiters' are are _not_ equivalent to their escape codes. Replacing these characters with their escape codes is as incorrect (according to the spec) as replacing the "$" or "!" characters (which are not escaped in FF or other browsers) and the "'" (apostrophe) character, which universally is. No, I don't understand it either.
Worse, this behavior does not match what the other major browsers do, so Firefox has essentially broken the promise that URLs are universal. If there are any reasons for doing this, they have not been made clear or documented, that I can find.
The hash fragment is increasingly being used to store 'client side' information, and so messing with these characters is breaking applications. I'm trying to understand if there's a good reason why, or just poor programming. In which case, I'll log a bug report.

Webbrowsers do not use RFC3987 at all. See section 1.2.a about Applicability. Maybe you should have a look at RFC3986 instead.
What is the delimiting role for the round brackets that would allow their unescaped use?

When trying to send a link from firefox it opens quicktime player

Did you try to change that file action in Tools > Options > Applications

If that isn't possible then try delete the mimeTypes.rdf file in the Firefox Profile Folder to reset all file actions.

Java Update URL Crashes Firefox 3.0.11

Hi all,
I am having some trouble executing this url from Firefox 3.0.11:
http://java.sun.com/webapps/getjava/BrowserRedirect?host=java.com
Everytime I attempt to load this with the latest Firefox 3 it crashes the browser.
The URL actually redirects to:
http://java.com/en/download/windows_xpi.jsp?host=java.com
I have a feeling that the server is sending an incorrect header for the Mime-Type. Can anyone else confirm this is happening?
This is a major issue since I am using deployJava.js that is included with the JavaSE Deployment Toolkit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Some updates dont work in Firefox and internet explorer can me make it default in Java

Copy and paste from Firefox comes out in fractions?

I have my default font set as Arial in Mail but if I copy a url from Firefox it pastes it in as Helvetica Fractions.
Any ideas?

Get rid of the font Helvetica Fractions from your machine. It's not compatible with OS X Cocoa apps.

I have a problen in opening or downloading pdf file from firefox browser.

I am not able to view or download PDF files in firebox browser from varies site such as http://www.careerjunction.org.in .it simply shows black page and then blank.I check the add on list and it shows me Adobe firefox plugin.Pls help as every time i has to copy the PDF url from firefox to IE to download.

Hi BalusC,
thanks for your immediate response.
as you correctly pointed out its not XLS but a csv file that works fine.
I just tried my luck for XLS file, but as you said it does not work for XLS file as well. original file contained images which were lost
after the download and garbage characters got inserted in.
I will have a look at the code you have given link of.
but for reading/writing I am using inputstream/outputstream but doing that through reader and writer.
like this
br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(
fileName.toString()), charsetName));
and for writing
outputStream = new BufferedWriter(new OutputStreamWriter(
response.getOutputStream(), charsetName));
you mean to say I should not use reader writer?

Receiving message in C# from Firefox Extension through Native Messaging

I am trying to get active Tab Title as well as URL from Mozilla Firefox. I have started to build up a Firefox add on and installed it using registry entry. My own developed Firefox add on is installed perfectly and it is showing the current machine time. This Firefox add on contains file like chrome.manifest, install.rdf, sample.xul, overlay.xul, clock.xul, clock.js etc. Below is my code.

I want to convert this code to fetch current tab title and URL from Firefox browser. At first, I am concentrating on the browser extension part and not the native for now and I just want to have a listener inside the js files such that whenever I switch to a different firefox tab or firefox window, an alert should show up from the browser itself (not from native at this moment) displaying the active tab's title and URL.
I want to get the solutions it code . It would be great help if any one can help me to get the exact solutions.

Thanks for your prompt reply '''@philipp'''. I will definitely follow your suggestion and upload my question at Mozilla forum.

What is the URL from which I can download Firefox 10 for Mac?

I cannot use Firefox 11 for Mac because it does not yet support a security add-on that I require. So I want to downgrade to Firefox 10 for Mac in both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions.
However, I have been unable to find the URL from which I can download these two versions of Firefox 10 for Mac. Yes, I tried putting various keywords into the search box: "download" "Firefox" "previous versions" "downgrade" etc. Still I couldn't locate the URL.
Would you be so kind as to send me the URL?

Just replying to help keep track of the thread. I have been looking also. I can find where to load version 3.6 - but not 10.0.2
We are having printing problems with 11 that we never had with 10 :-(

Firefox and Thunderbird do not communicate anymore : I can't open links from TB emails ( a href... ) and can't send mail from FF pages (mailto)

Hi there,
Please excuse me if a make a few mistakes, I am French ;)
I come here because firefox and thunderbird are not working together anymore. This is what happens :
- Firefox and Thunderbird are opened
- I click on a link in an email
- A few seconds after that a Firefox windows pops up. The title is : "Close Firefox", the content is : "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
Second case :
- Firefox is closed and Thunderbird is open
- I click on a link in an email
- A few seconds after that a Firefox windows pops up as expected. Firefox opens the link as expected but doesn't opens the other tabs as usual (when i start FF it re-opens previous tabs)
Third case :
- Firefox and Thunderbird are opened
- I click on a link to send an email (<a href="mailto:......@.....">)
- A few seconds after that a Thunderbird windows pops up. The title is : "Close Thunderbird", the content is : "Thunderbird is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
As in the second case, if TB is closed when i click on the mailto, TB opens properly and send the email.
If Internet Explorer is set as my default browser, it works fine for "Thunderbird -> link -> IE" but the "IE-> mailto -> TB" still doesn't work.
I already looked up for some answers on google but can't find something which works.
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Vincent

Check the target field in the Firefox desktop shortcut and make sure that you do not start Firefox with the -no-remote switch or have set the environment variable MOZ_NO_REMOTE=1 (Control Panel > System > Advanced > Environment variables).
Always make sure to start at least the default profile without the -no-remote command line switch.
If you need to have more than one profile open at the same time then start subsequent instances with the -no-remote command line switch.
You can not send links from other programs to a Firefox instance that is started with the -no-remote switch.
In such a case you need to drag links in a Firefox window or paste the link in the location bar.

Firefox continues to crash unexpectedly. The report mesage suggests that the information I send will help Firefox to cure the problem but I never hear anything from them. How is someone who isn't a computer geek supposed to solve this problem?

Firefox continues to crash unexpectedly. When it does a message requests me to send a report that is supposed to help Firefox understand the problem but I never hear from them again. Just how is someone who isn't a computer geek able to understand all the detailed discussions from other users. My Firefox is completely up to date. Is there anyone who can explain what is happening in simple terms?

Hi Mariah ~
It's Shaunn, the original poster. Thanks for your posting. I'm glad I'm not the only one that's having this problem.
Now that you mention it, I'm having the exact same problem on Facebook as well, when I play Family Feud.
I wish someone would investigate and post a solution to this problem. No-one from Playlist has responded, and no-one "Officially" from Firefox either.
So Mariah, I appreciate you and your post.
If you find anything out...from anywhere...would you please let me know. You can post it right here and I'll get an email from Firefox.
I'll do the same for you.
Enjoy your day and good luck.
Shaunn
