Trying to create a document that's an email invite with an embedded link

Well the subject just about says it all... But here goes, I need to create an invitation to a new website. This invite will, I'm sure be forwarded manytimes over. That's why I'm trying to embed the url into the image and everytime I drag the doc into applemail it just comes up as a document icon and won't let me control click view as (it's greyed out) Any direction on this one.
Thanks...

Mr. "P",
I think it's more a problem with Mail but with Pages.
Pages documents are so-called packages, i.e. folders that contain several files necessary for Pages. That's why you see the icon: Mail tries to send the document as an attachment (and will even zip the document).
Mail by default doesn't allow you to create HTML-mails. You can find a description how to create a newsletter with Pages in this posting: http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=2538151#2558882. Just adopt the steps to your needs.
Another alternative would be to install the Mailpictures bundle for Mail. The advanced preferences option "Show options in compose window" will allow you to use raw HTML in your message.
If this information is useful to you, please mark it as "helpful" or "solved" using the little buttons in the titlebar of this message. Thank you.

    Trying to create a text that is on fire or more like a hot branding iron

    Something like this?
    That was from a project I did a few months ago.  Sounds similar to what you want.  I did that in After Effects.
    Basically all I did was add a glow effect to the text and messed around with the glow parameters.  The black smoke is animated and moves on the actual video and is basically some pre keyed smoke footage that I had.  The smoke was originally gray but black looked cooler.
    I'd say it's pretty close to your hot branding iron thing.

  • I am creating a form on LiveCycle Designer and I am trying to create a form that has a e-mail submit button.  When the butten is utilized it attaches the form to the e-mail in an plain text .xml format rather than the pdf format.  Is there a quick fix?

    Hi,
    You have the choice between xml or pdf, in later versions of designer you can choose with a dropdown on the email button Object palette, the "Submit As";
    In earlier version you had to edit the XML Source and change the format from xml to pdf (or vice-versa);

  • Trying to create a service that starts at boot

    People,
    I'm trying to create a service that will start at boot (in single-user mode, actually). I am up and running but I do NOT want to run the service now. I only want to run the service when the machine reboots.
    I've been rummaging around all day trying to figure this out but I'm stuck. I can create a service that runs. I can create an XML file in /var/svc/manifest/site/patch-install.xml that will be read when I boot- because after I boot, I can list the service:
    svcs -a | grep patch
    disabled       18:23:23 svc:/site/patch-install:defaultI have inserted the following in my xml:
    <create_default_instance enabled='true' />and also
    <create_default_instance enabled='false' />but it makes no difference. Anyone have any idea? What is the purpose of create_default_instance? I don't understand; item 9 on http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/selfheal/sdev_intro.html seems rather opaque to me.
    Also, what exactly is the purpose of /var/svc/profile/ ? I tried putting some code to enable my xml but it didn't do anything. Just wondering if this might fit into the picture.
    BTW, I do not want the login prompt to appear until my method is complete.
    Thanks.

I only want to run the service when the machine reboots.I'd probably create the service now (by importing the manifest manually rather than waiting for the reboot), then set general/enabled in the default instance to be be true with svcprop. That should tell it to start at boot, but not enable it immediately.
    I've been rummaging around all day trying to figure this out but I'm stuck. I can create a service that runs. I can create an XML file in /var/svc/manifest/site/patch-install.xml that will be read when I boot- because after I boot, I can list the service:Yes, that's the default. Or you can load it immediately to create the service now.
    # svccfg import patch-install.xml
    I have inserted the following in my xml:
    <create_default_instance enabled='true' />and also
    <create_default_instance enabled='false' />but it makes no difference. Anyone have any idea? What is the purpose of create_default_instance? I don't understand; item 9 on http://www.sun.com/bigadmin/content/selfheal/sdev_intro.html seems rather opaque to me.There's a difference between a "service" like network/smtp or console-login and an "instance" like network/smtp:sendmail or console-login:default. In most cases, you just want a single "default" instance of your service. The above line sets the default instance 'enabled' property to true or false. When I import your manifest as is, the service comes in as 'disabled'. If I set it to true, it comes in as 'maintenance' (almost certainly because it was enabled, tried to start, and couldn't find the start method on my machine).
    Also, what exactly is the purpose of /var/svc/profile/ ? I tried putting some code to enable my xml but it didn't do anything. Just wondering if this might fit into the picture.'profiles' are loaded exactly once, and they are mainly used to set certain services to enabled or disabled.
    3 of them are loaded if present, platform.xml, generic.xml, and site.xml. The last is not generated by the OS, but left for you to use. But it's usually only useful as a "first boot" type thing. Because if you make changes to it, it will not be reread. This isn't usually a problem because after first boot you're in control of the services. The usual thing is that at first boot the manifests load to create services, then the profiles are loaded to set then enabled or disabled. This isn't possible before that point because there's no service to modify yet.
    BTW, I do not want the login prompt to appear until my method is complete.Any login prompt like a network login, or only the console login prompt? If the latter, then you'll want a dependency so that system-console-login depends on your service. But if your service has a problem at boot time, you'd make it difficult to log in.

  • Trying to create a property that has a structure to it

    Hello:
    I am trying to create a property that has a structure to it.  Specifically, I am trying to create a multi-valued property called checks.  This property is composed of check number, check date and check amount.
    The data for this should display like the rows in a table, like an Excel spreadsheet.
    I realize this is a tall order.  However, is this possible?  I have tried the composed of feature, but did not find this to work.
    The best I could come up with so far is to have three multi-valued properties each for check number, check date and check amount.  The user would then need to ensure that the first entry for check number applies to the first entry for check date, and then the second entry for check number applies to the second entry for check date, and so on, and so on...
    Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    In the detailed help for the event structure there is a link to caveats and recommendations for using event structures.  It is a good starting point.
    It is courteous to let the Forum know when your questions are related to a school assignment or homework.  We are glad to help you learn LabVIEW, but do not do your homework for you.
    You have learned the major disadvantage of the sequence structure: It must run to completion before anything else can happen.
    If you are building a state machine (typically a while loop with shift registers enclosing a case structure with one case per state) and having trouble with timing, then think about your requirements. Apparently you have some time delays, but under certain conditions you must terminate a delay/wait and do something else.  One way of doing this is to have a Wait state.  The wait state has a short delay, determined by the minimum time you can delay responding to a changed condition, and a check to see if the required elapsed time has occurred.  If the time has not elapsed, the next state is the Wait state again.  The state machine can repeat any state as often as necessary.  So a 15 second delay could be implemented by going to a Wait state with a one second wait 15 times. Any error or new command will see a response in no more than one second.

  • Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. Any suggestion?

    Hi, I tried to create a slideshow that contain more than 500 photos. Now, trying to open / execute / select the slideshow, iPhoto hangs with the spinning coloured wheel and I have only to force the deletion from System Preference. I already tried to rebuild the iPhoto Library (all the possible options) and tried to update teh version from 9.4.3 to 9.5 but the problem still persists: is there a way to delete this slideshow without selecting it ? How can I solve the problem, please?
    Kind Regards

    Can you restore your iPhoto Library from a backup version, that was created before you added the slideshow?
    If not, have you tried to rebuild the slideshow with iPhoto Library Manager?
    As described by Terence Devlin here:  Re: iphoto library was created with an unrelased version of iphoto please quit and ugrade library by opening it in iphoto 2 or iphoto 4

  • "Trying to create a journal entry of the local BP with foreign amounts" error

    I have an addon that needs to set the Total (LC) field on the invoice form when a Delivery is copied to an Invoice. In this case, it's $169,978.62. The original Unit Price on the row is $7,000.00, with quantity of 5 MT (selling UoM). After populating the line total field through SDK UI, it calculated discount% to be -385.653. When I press Add, it gives me red bar error "Trying to create a journal entry of the local BP, with foreign amounts [message 3530-11]". This BP uses local currency and there is no foreign currency involved on this document. If I perform the same action through normal UI without SDK, I can add the invoice without a problem. I know it probably has to do with rounding, but how can I get past this error if I have to set the line total through SDK?

    Hi Ronnie,
    Glad you have found the issue

    There is an issue I want to address to the forum. I don't want to clutter up my posted topic with an entire page of information that is rellevent to my topic. How can I create a document that other Apple Discussion members can view it using a link? Where can I "put" it so that it's accessible?

    Most any ISP you have will give you storage space, then it's easiest to ftp it to your storage, then post the URL like this...
    http://web3.ehost-services.com/bdaqua/
    I use TransmitX, but other free ftp APPs exist like Cyberduck. If you vist your ISP's site it should tell you jow to do it... if not post back with your ISP and I'll help further!

  • How do you create a part that has two through holes with a single net connecting to both.

    I attempted to create a part that contained 2 through holes with a copper strip between them so they would connect to a single net, but one of the holes (pin 2) gets rejected by Ultiboard as an unconnected entitiy. Is there a way to define the second hole (pin 2) in such a way as to mitigate the problem?
    Thanks, Tod
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

     Hi
    It is quite simple to do so:
    when making the footprint, you just put your two TH pins where you need them. name them 1 and 2.
    Then in Multisim, when making a new component with the component wizzard,in step 2 make a 1-pin component, and select your desired footprint(which has two pins).
    thenin step 3, make/choose your 1-pin symbol.
    In step 5 you can map the footprint to the symbol , just use both footprint pins for the same symbol pin.
    When using it in your schematic, you'll see one pin, in the layout, there will be two pins connected together..
    Good luck
