Trying to create interactive navigation to bring you to a certain point in a page.

I'm creating an interactive file with indesign to be exported as an interactive PDF. I want to be able to click on an item and it bring you to its description on a separate page. All I'm getting online are tutorials on how to place navigation buttons to bring you to next,previous, first and last pages but I want to be brought to a certain point on a specific page.
I did come up with a solution of using object states and interactive buttons so that when the item is clicked on its description appears beside it and can then be clicked away but the client doesn't want this. The client wants the item and description to be seperate so that when the item is clicked you are brought somewhere new directly to the description.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Object states only work with SWF and DPS.
You can hyperlink to a text anchor to do what you want in a PDF.

  • Is it possible to pin my navigation to the top of the browser until I reach a certain point on the page and then let it continue to scroll normally?

    I'm trying to get my navigation to pin to the top of the browser while other scroll effects are taking place, then when it reaches a certain point on the page, I want the navigation to continue moving up and off the screen to allow for the footer to come in.  Is this possible?

    Merci Éric de me revenir en français, je l'apprécie beaucoup. Je ne veux conserver que le mouvement de haut en bas et de bas en haut. Je ne vois pas l'utilité du mouvement horizontale (gauche-droite, droite-gauche) et pire encore, par mégarde je fais trop souvent bouger ainsi mon texte et cela m'embête, même me dérange  beaucoup. Même que cela me donne même mal au coeur hahahahahaha!
    Par contre, ma souris précédente avait le mouvement de défilement du haut en bas et bas en haut et cela par contre m'est très utile. Je voudrais donc savoir s'il existe un moyen de stopper le mouvement de côté mais conserver tout de même la fonction du mouvement haut-bas et bas-haut avec le simple toucher de la souris. Suis-je plus clair? Disons que c'est plus aisé pour moi en français. merci à toi

  • I am trying to create interactive floor plans for my website Is it possible to do this in Flash CS4?

    Is it possible to create interactive floor plans in flash CS4? Are there any tutorials out there to do this?

    I don't see why not. Just create the elements you want to move around as MovieClips or swf's, add event listeners to these items listening for MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, drag and MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, drop.   writh the drag and drop functions  and you're set.
    function drag(e:MouseEvent):void {
         itemx.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN, drag);
         e.eurrentTarget.startDrag();
    function drop(e:MouseEvent):void {
         itemx.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_UP, drop);
          e.eurrentTarget.stopDrag();

  • How to create links that guide you to a specific title on the page and not the beginning of the page?

    I'm trying to create links so that when you click on a title in the table of contents it guides you to the title on the specific page. However, when I do that it always sends me to the beginning of the page even if the title is in the bottom. Anyone knows how to do if I want to get to the title and not to the beginning of the page? When I use Finereader it create links from the table of contents automatically and those links send me to the title no mater where it is on the page. I've tried do edit the settings to look like those links created in Finereader but it doesn't work.

  • Trying to create multiple lines of radio buttons on the same page. how do i do that??

    Greetings. I'm brand new to this, and am trying to create a form with multiple lines of radio buttons on a single page to send to my students.  How can I do this??  I currently have a table that I want the students to fill out and return, but every time I put radio buttons in, the form only allows selection of one of the 12 - I want students to be able to select one on each row.........

    Each group of three radio buttons for a row should have the same field name and different "Radio Button Choice" (see Options tab). So if you copy & paste the first row, be sure to rename the new ly added radio buttons.

  • I am trying to create a form so that it is easier for people to fill out timesheets

    I know that i will most likely require an IF function of sorts within it,
    Basically what i want to do is create 2 dropdown boxes, 1 of them will contain company names and the other will contain job numbers,
    Now I want to create it so that when you select a certain value for the first box only a selected number of values come up in the 2nd dropdown box, and so on and so forth.
    I.E.
    Mcdonalds - dropbox pulls up values specific to mcdonalds
    burger king - dropbox pulls up values specfic to burger king
    but they all need to be the same box, just the first box specifies which values will be shown in the 2nd box
    I hope i am explaining this well enough that someone can help me!

    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);

    I keep getting this error in Dreamweaver when I am trying to upload my website?  Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?  here is the error message: /html - error occurred - Unable to create remote folder /html.  Access denied.  The file may not exist, or there could be a permission problem.   Make sure you have proper authorization on the server and the server is properly configured.  File activity incomplete. 1 file(s) or folder(s) were not completed.  Files with errors: 1 /html

    Nobody can tell you anything without knowing exact site and server specs, but I would suspect that naming the folder "html" wasn't the brightest of ideas, since that's usually a default (invisible) folder name existing somewhere on the server and the user not having privileges to overwrite it.

  • Warning when trying to launch application over mapped drive "We can't verify who created this file. Are you sure you want to run this file?"

    We have 2 load balanced application servers that map drives with programs on them for users from a central server that are giving the warning "We can't verify who created this file. Are you sure you want to run this file?". Basically how it works
    is a user logs in to one or the other application servers (for example, 10.0.0.1 or 10.0.0.2) and runs a log on script that maps an L:\ drive to the users folder on the central storage server (10.0.0.100). When the user goes to launch the .exe from the L:\
    drive it presents that warning.
    I've looked around and have seen recommendations that you need to add the site to the local intranet zone for IE, but when I try to add L:\ it tells me that I have entered an invalid sequence. It appears that you can only put network shares in that location,
    which is not how we're mapping the drive.
    Has anyone run in to this before and knows how to resolve it?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    A mapped drive letter is not supported so please try to input \\server or \\server\folder to see if it will help.

  • Navigation and Creating  a navigation rule at runtime

    Hi all,
    How can I create a navigation rule at runtime?
    I got all my pages (names and locations) stored in a database table.All my pages are jspx format.
    I don't want to create navigation rules for each page, Instead I want to use the location stored in the database and create a navigation rule to navigate to.
    I tried navigating using ServletRequest :
            ExternalContext ectx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext();
            HttpServletResponse response = (HttpServletResponse)ectx.getResponse();
            HttpServletRequest  request = (HttpServletRequest)ectx.getRequest();
            request.getRequestDispatcher("/faces/Titles.jspx").forward(request,response);But it blows after the first call.
    is it possible to create a navigation rule in a Bean or is there another way to call jspx pages from a Bean without loosing the session.
    Can someone help me please.
    thanks in advance,
    Ahmad Esbita

    Ahmad,
    I don't know of any way to programatically create navigation cases at runtime. However, perhaps you could try creating a NavigationHandler decorator. Let's assume you have a function called "getViewIDforAction" that does the database lookup and returns the view ID for a given action code. You could do something like this:
    package my.code;
    import javax.faces.application.NavigationHandler;
    import javax.faces.context.FacesContext;
    public class MyNavigationManager extends NavigationHandler
       NavigationHandler _base;
       public NavigationManager (NavigationHandler base)
          super();
          _base = base;
       public void handleNavigation(FacesContext fc, String actionMethod, String actionName)
          String viewID = getViewIDforAction(actionName);
          if (viewID != null && ! "".equals(viewID))
             fc.getViewRoot().setViewId(viewID);
          else
             _base.handleNavigation(fc, actionMethod, actionName);
    }You'll also need this in faces-config.xml:
    <application>
      <navigation-handler>my.code.MyNavigationManager</navigation-handler>
    ...any other stuff...
    </application>Note: I haven't tested this or anything - just to give you an idea...

  • Error when trying to create new BP in MSA 5.0 SP08

    Hi,
    We have currently an issue in MSA 5.0 SP08 when we are trying to create a new BP. We receive the message "Relationship (Employee) - Error handler in function EvalsfakvbeztpfromReltyp reached". Looking into the code we find this error handler in the BOINTBPEMP :
    The error is triggered when the standard method CreateBusineesObject is invoked. Sfamitabt contains a guid but it's a string and as you can see, the method should wait an object. Not sure if it is the source of our problem:
    Public Overridable Function CreateBusinessObject(ByVal typeName As String, Optional ByVal parameterNames As Object = Nothing, Optional ByVal parameterValues As Object = Nothing) As SAP.MT.FW.BLL.BusinessObject
         Member of: SAP.MT.FW.BLL.BusinessFactory
    Some more investigation we did : the object Err.Number equal 0 (no internal error) and i was not able to put a break point into the class constructor for BOEMPLOYEE because it is a protected event (CreateBusinessObject("BOEMPLOYEE" should be link to the class contructor of BOEMPLOYEE when a new object is created)
    However, I can confirm that SFAMITABT contains a valid guid (i checked smomitabt) and i also tried during the debug session to change interactively the guid with an other valid one, but i still have this problem.
    I started the sql profiler but i saw nothing relevant in there.
    I modified the sensitivity for the debug in order to see if i will have more informations but without success and the MSIL (intermediate languaged) did not help me more.
    Please advise,
    Thanks
    Christophe

    Aren't customer task not used anymore?
    Or am I mixing things up here.
    Well the problem isn't a problem it is SAP standard behaviour you simply can't configure customer tasks (type T in PFTC)
    You can only configure Standard Tasks (TS) or workflow templates (WS)
    Kind regards, Rob Dielemans
    Edited by: Rob Dielemans on May 29, 2009 12:51 PM
    Just had a look at the SAP help and indeed types T aren't allowed anymore SAP gives the solution to copy the customer task, this will automatically change it to a standard task

  • Error while trying to create a Universe on Function Module in IDT

    Hi,
    We are using BO 4.1 Support Pack 2. I am trying to create a Universe on Function Module. I created data foundation layer, but when I right click on the table and click on 'Show table values' it doesn't bring any data (and there is data available in that table). When I click on 'Check Integrity' it says 'Missing Primary key'. Please see the screen shot. Please let me know if any has any idea and I am doing something wrong? I really appreciate it.
    Thanks,
    Charvi.

    Hi Charvi,
    What type of database/application are you trying to connect? Are you getting any error message?
    Missing primary key message is just a warning and is not related to the issue.

  • Trying to create HTML5 Video Playlist in Edge Animate - I can't get it to work. Please help!?!?

    Hi All,
    I am creating an interactive site through Edge Animate and am in the process of trying to create a HTML 5 Video Playlist to function within Edge Animate.
    Current Process - Example:
    I have 3 videos that need to be played on a certain page.
    I created a symbol and dragged the videos to the stage and hidden them within that symbol's timeline.
    I then use thumbnail images in a side playlist to either .remove(); .hide(); a video and .show(); the next.
    However when I do a hide / show option, the video continue to plays in the background if I don't also create an if/else statement to pause it.
    My concern with pausing it is that it will continue to load and dramatically slow down the load time of the site.
    References:
    I found this which looks very helpful but don't know how to add this to edge composition.
    http://demosthenes.info/blog/909/Create-An-Automatic-HTML5-Video-Playlist
    Please help or put me in the right direction to create a playlist would be hugely... AMAZINGLY.. helpful.

    Hi Joe,
    Thank you so much for your help on this one. It is hugely appreciated!!
    I have been working frantically to implement your solution to get this working. I used the 'change src' method.
    I have added all my code below in case anyone wants the solution in the future.
    Could you please help below as I am now totally stuck with the <track> and 'event listener issues' !!
    Issue #1:
    I am having major problems with loading the 'closed captions' track element.
    Everything I click for the video to change source / to the next video, the closed caption track adds to the video and doesn't 'unload' the previous one. You then end up with multiple different subtitle tracks on the video screen
    - The closed captions / subtitles are not showing up in Google Chrome either?
    Issue #2:
    I can't get the event listener in edge animate to work for 'playing' and 'ended'. Can you please help and point me in the correct direction??

  • How to create interactive forms in ABAP WebDynpro

    Hi Experts,
    we are trying to create our first interactive form with the "how to guide for ABAP WebDynpros".
    Unfortunatelly we have a big problem on Step 17, where we want to save the created WebDynpro Application. After safing the system shows a pop up with following error message:
    "you are not authorized to use function - Netzwerkadministration". Although we have all the necessary access rights in the system (ERP/Developer User).
    But if we go on and create a service call (it's a guided procedure) for an existing BAPI, we can't select the function module interface parameters that we want to add to the context via checkboxes. There are no checkboxes available. but the how-to-guides shows checkboxes.
    is maybe the first error the reason that we can't select the function modules? Please help. If you need the how-to-guide, please give me your eMail and I will provide it to you immediately.
    Thank you very much in advance and regards,
