Weird Links and Pages Palette "Glitch"

I keep my palettes docked, and have noticed a really weird "glitch" with the Links and Pages palettes. I keep them at the top, as often I am re-using a document and updating content to a new date, with new links and new info in the page template. Below them, I have several other palettes docked (Swatches, Character Styles, etc.). Well, when one of my palette panels has Links or Pages active, all the other palette panels creep down incrementally whenever I select something new.
For example, the Character Styles palette was about 2" tall on screen, I selected a different section of text, then it was 1.8" tall. Upon selecting something else, it was 1.6" tall.
This only happens when Links or Pages is open in a palette panel group. Doesn't matter where they are, or which panel group, if either of those is open, the all the other palette panel groups incrementally get smaller.
It's so weird! At first I thought I was going crazy. I would make my Character Styles palette a certain height so I could see several styles, and slowly I would only be able to see one style. Which is a little irritating and disruptive to my work flow.
Sure, it's easy enough to make a different palette active, but during the updating process described above, it is realy helpful to have the Links palette open.
Anybody else have this same problem and/or know how to fix it?
I am running CS5 (ID version 7.0.4) and Mac OSX 10.6.8, 2.66 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors, with about 8GB of RAM. All patches are up to date.

My palettes are different. Sometimes when I minimimize them to tabs, little by little they try to hide behind one another, until after they are all huddled together at the side with only the bravest ones visible.
I have no fix, except to reset the workspace every few days.

  • Reviewing all links and page jumps

    Our editor is reviewing a multiple page PDF and needs to quickly look over all our hyperlinks and page jumps since there are many on one page. Is there an easy way to see all the links and page jumps to easily review them? Also note some hyperlinks are autogenerated by InDesign so they don't show up as links when you use the link tool.

    If you are creating several text links in a text box and you turn the text into links one by one as you go they seem to all hook onto the first link.
    Type out all your text first and then go back and create the links.

  • Problems with links and pages

    I'd like to start by saying that it's not the first time I used iWeb. My family website has been online for more than a year, constantly being updated and I never had this sort of trouble.
    However just yesterday I finished setting up my company site on my office Intel iMac Core Duo 17" and I came across some problems, mainly when saving the site to a folder and viewing it. These are ;
    1. Some links work some don't.
    2. Some pages are published while some are not.
    Anyone come across these errors.
    Obviously I can't upload the site to the webserver until I've ironed out these creases, so any help is GREATLY appreciated.
    Thanks.
    P.S. I've also tried moving the iWeb Domain file to my home iMac G5 and re-publishing it to a folder with the same results.

    I am having the same problem... although I am only trying to link between "One of My Pages" i.e navigation menus.
    It is pretty random which links work and which don't as far as I can tell anyway.
    The links work fine when I activate hyperlinks in iWeb but as soon as I publish to a folder some of them don't.
    I will post if I find a solution, but I have read and tried just about everything.

  • Page palette appears to be very strange in Indesign (and don't know how to fix it)

    So one day, my Page Palette just went cuckoo in Indesign.The bottom area, where you can normally delete, add, or shows you how many pages there are, or the very lower right scretch corner are all missing. I've tried to go to Palette options and see it is a "View" issue, but nothing seems to bring those functions back.
    This could either be something Very simple and I am an idiot, or it is something alot more major, which I am praying it's not.
    Thanks, any insights is great apperciated!!

  • FIREFOX 26 changed the 'post crash' page with the list of windows and pages. It was a real HTML page with links for each page. Now it isn't (and blows)

    * You changed the page that comes up after a crash - the one which shows the windows and pages that were up before the
    crash.
    This used to be a real HTML page and it isn't any more. THis choice was pure isiocy consider how peopel used that page every day (try taking to your users for a change).
    The pages listed on that 'post crash page' used to be actual LINKS (you could right click them &
    manually open them in another tab - and most peope DID that every day). You could also (and I did this a lot) drag a second
    copy of the page, into a new tab (to keep track of all the pages I had not wanted to open)
    Now the pages are no longer links. You cannot right-click them.
    The thing in the probser is no longer a page that I can drag into a new tab.
    Roll the version back and throw this one in the bin...and have a good long talk with your developers about the definition of
    'STUPIDITIY'
    Then I try to type anything in the addres bar it is suppose to repoond with the history of old things I have types in the past, or
    search for what I type (and in some cases I think it tyes to convert it intoa URL). However it no longer does any of these
    things. When I type in the ADDRESS BAR ONLY, I do not get all of my letters to appear. I have to type into a notepad or
    into the search and to copy and paste to go to a URL. Nothing that is typed into the address bad responds normally at all
    anymore, and I am fairly certain there are no new addons on this machine at all. It does not matter which things I disable. It
    still does this. W of course points the finger back at a change to FIREFOX. I wich I could just sitct with one stable release
    forever but the MOZILLA folk thing it is best to force peopel awy from a working broswer release to a horrible one (due to it
    being out of date).
    FIREFOX 26.0 has 'issues' (ie new *features*/bugs)
    1) History is no longer accurate. My Proof? This machine is the primary one for the entire family (the only PC working). It is
    logged in with same user every time and never has its history cleared. It now January 7 so I ought to have a list of all of last
    months browing available to me.
    However, according to FIREFOX history, in all of December 2013, the entire family only went to 51 primary URL's. None of
    the official TV sites I use to get episodes are listed. None of the official movie sites I use are listed. The primary URL for
    ebay is not listed. Only 1 out of our 4 weather sites that I use (at least once a week) are listed. Only 1 of our 3 FINANCE
    sites is listed. There ought to be several; hundred root URLs listed.
    Please fix history as this change seriously "blows greasy chunks"
    PROBLEM (a stupid change in the new FIREFOX version)
    FOr a long time, after a crash you got a useful page (a real HTML page) which gave you a list of all of your last sessions
    'winwos and tabs' that were open when the browser crashed. there were certain ways of using this page that are no longer
    able to be done.
    The old method was wonderful as it had this behavior :
    *** The old method for displaying your 'Recovered Tabs' allowed you to :
    a) right click an individual item and open it in a tab without getting rid of that lovely window of your previous session of
    'recovered windows and tabs '.
    2) drag the URL for the entire window of 'recovered windows and tabs ' to a new tab (to make a second copy) so that you
    could select just a few of them to open as a group, and stil have the old list handy.
    You can no longer do either of these things. The 'recovered windows and tabs ' page no longer has links in it and can no longer be dragged, so you cant select a few of them to use, and keep the rest around for later. NOW - once you choose which pages to open the window is gone forever (can can't get a second copy).
    People used to make a copy of the page for later use (with a drag)
    we also used to open pages with a right click (which no longer functions
    This new method seriously blows big greasy chunks. A parge loss in function has occurred.
    Put things back as they were. 26 is full of terrible changes that NOBODY likes. It also has a lot of bugs (history is not reliable at all)

    (1) Firefox's built-in post-crash page has not been a real HTML page for a long time (for example, from the time of Firefox 22, see: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/968212 Want to save LOTS of versions of "Restore Session.xht" from the "oops ..." page for later use]). If you had this working differently with Firefox 25, that might have been created by an extension.
    You can check to see whether extensions are disabled or need an update on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. The disabled extensions cluster toward the bottom of the list. To poll for updates, use the "gear" button above the list and choose Check for Updates.
    If you used the Reset feature (or Firefox automatically did a reset due to some problem during upgrading), you will need to reinstall missing extensions. The reset feature creates a folder on the desktop named Old Firefox Data. Do you have that folder? There may be data you can recover from it.
    (2) There are many ways for history to get cleared, both internal to Firefox and external. Could you double-check your Privacy settings?
    orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Privacy
    * The "Firefox will" drop-down says Remember History: Firefox shouldn't be clearing history, but an add-on or external software could do it
    * The "Firefox will" drop-down says Use custom settings for history: inspect the "Clear history when Firefox closes" setting to make Firefox isn't set to clear history. Also check your add-ons and consider external software.
    Firefox normally accumulates months of history. However, some of Firefox's database sizes are based on disk space available. If your hard drive is very full, Firefox might reduce the amount of history stored.

  • When I click on a web link and hold down ctrl the page will not open into a new tab, it is just opening in a new window. How do I correct this?

    When I use to hold down the ctrl key and left click on a web link, the page use to open into a new tab. For some reason this is not working anymore. Instead when I hold down the ctrl key and left click on a web link, the link will open into a new window. How do I fix this?

    I figured out how to correct it. Not sure what exactly was happening. But I started into private browsing and then turned it off. It's been working correctly ever since I did private browsing.

  • Links and destinations problems - page view

    Hi there,
    I'm working on a large PDF in Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. This PDF has a LOT of internal links, and I want to link to a page view, and inherit zoom. Not only do I have to manually change the zoom to "inherit zoom" after I create a link, but Acrobat has stopped saving my changes.
    Things were going along swimmingly for awhile - I was creating links, making the destination a page view (so that the user can find the appropriate glossary entry I'm linking them to), and then going back and choosing "Inherit Zoom". And then copying the link and pasting it throughout the document as I needed. all great. Until, randomly, one of the links didnt' test right. I clicked on it and was taken to the TOP of the page, not the page view - its action was set to "Go to a page in this document" instead of "Go to a page view". So I deleted that link, and started over with a fresh one, making sure it was set to "Go to a page view". Then I copied that link, and pasted it 2 pages later. I tested that second link, and once again it just took me to the top of the page. I tested the original one - the one I made to replace the faulty one 2 pages ago - and even though I had JUST set it to page view, it too just went to the top of the page.
    This is so frustrating - Acrobat is literally just ignoring my commands. I am at a loss as to what to do. Please help!

  • Apple Mail links will not open in Firefox. The address bar and page are blank.

    I have just upgraded Firefox to version 4.0 and when I receive an email with a link in it, the link will not work. Firefox will load but the page is blank and the web address bar will sometimes show the link and sometimes not. If I cut and paste the address from the email it will not work.

    In mail.app preferences there is a setting for RSS that lets one choose which program is the default RSS reader. Whichever program is set to be the default RSS reader is used by mail.app to open any urls in mail messages.

  • Table of Contents links and hyperlinks lose accuracy in FP past 5 pages?

    I've come up dry searching for any mention of this bug
    anywhere.
    We've got Word documents that have a table of contents (TOC
    created dynamically in word, using the standard "Heading" style
    method.) When we convert these to Flashpaper SWFs, about 50% of the
    TOC links don't work - they go sort of nearby spots in the
    document, but bring you to a spot off by half a page or more. The
    links to spots in the first 4-5 pages work ok, but TOC links that
    go deeper into the doc - from 5 to 20 pages in - those are off by a
    half page to a page. The working TOC links in Word or in PDF
    versions of the doc take you directly to the right spot.
    The "outline" option in flashpaper also fails - the outline
    links past 5 pages or so are innacurate just like the in-document
    links.
    According the the (scanty) documentation for Flashpaper,
    Heading/Outlines, etc. are supposed to work fine and get converted
    into the SWF.
    I've already tried creating fresh example files, to make sure
    it isn't a problem with sloppy Word formatting, extra Headings,
    etc. - no dice. I still get TOC and outline links that fail to work
    in many cases. They mostly fail for things that jump to spots after
    5-6 pages into the doc. But if I convert these same docs to PDFs,
    the PDF bookmarks and TOC links and hyperlinks work perfectly.
    We've also tried using Hyperlinks in Word to create "pretend"
    Table of Contents (not dynamic, but we're desperate), and we find
    that those hyperlinks that go past 5 or 6 pages into the 20 page
    doc lose their acuracy also - they are a half to a full page off.
    We already tried the method of saving the word docs as HTML
    then converting to FP(suggested within this board) but that did not
    improve things.
    Thanks in advance.
    - Chris

    We solved our issue. In our case we have Word 2007, but our
    client is still on Word 2003 so our Word document was originally
    created in Word 2007 and then converted by Word 2007 into the Word
    2003 format. It appears that we were having these problems because
    we were running Flashpaper on the coverted Word document. A
    document converted this way is internally different than a document
    created by the Word 2003 application.
    To fix the problem we downloaded the Word 2003 application,
    created a new Word 2003 document, copy and pasted the contents of
    the converted Word document into the document created on Word 2003,
    and then ran Flashpaper on the new Word 2003 document. Problem
    solved.

  • View Link and and navigate between pages problem...

    Hi, everyone! Hope someone can help with my problem. In DB I have one table with informationa about Employees and Jobs. From this one table I made one EO from which I made 2 VO - EmployeeVO and JobsVO. I link these two VO with ViewLink - EmpJobVL (1 to 1 realtionship).
    Then I created 2 .jspx pages. In one page I droped EmployeeVO but in second page I droped JobsVO. In page template I put button with which I can navigate between these two pages.
    The problem is... when I run my employee page and navigate to correct record with "next" button and then try to navigate to jobs page then in jobs page I can't see correct record. I always see there first record. Why it is so and what can I do?

  • Problems with template and page links..

    Hello community!
    I'm pretty new to dreamweaver Cs4 and am having a slight problem. I have my template.dwt file and 5 other pages which use this template layout. However when I preview my website in my browser, the template.dwt file links to all the pages, however when I click on another link (a page link) once on this page, the hyperlinks from the navigation cant be clicked. In other words the navigation turns into just text and no hyperlinks.
    I want to be able to click on any page on my website using the navigation bar, so i can go back and forth onto pages all over my website using my navigation.
    Anyone know what to do or a solution to allow me to have all the links working from the template
    Thanks

    You are being confused by a) not understanding root relative vs document
    relative links, and b) not understanding how DW previews files.
    If I have a document with a link to an image that looks like this -
    <img src="/images/foo.gif"...
    That's what's called a root relative link.
    If I preview that document in DW, then the browser gets the document, sees
    the leading "/" and reads that as the root of the hard drive, since the
    browser has no idea where the root of the site is.  Thus, the image is
    broken in the preview.
    If I have temp files enabled, then DW will secretly convert the file being
    previewed into a temporary file, and hand that to the browser.  This temp
    file has had all root relative links converted to document relative links
    (as you will see by looking at the code in the browser), and has had all
    include files actually embedded in the page, and has had all external CSS
    and js markup embedded in the page.  In other words, DW has made the
    document into a stand-alone page.
    If you do not have temp files enabled, all of these links would be broken on
    preview.
    Now - if you are using root relative links, AND you have temp files enabled,
    AND you click away from the previewed document, then all of your links will
    be broken, since DW has not made that linked file into a temp file.  This is
    what you are seeing.
    So - if you want to click away on preview, then you must use document
    relative links for the site -
    <img src="../images/foo.gif"... (for example)
    These will still work on preview since the browser knows how to determine
    the current file's location and how to follow that path.

  • Hi guys. i have some problem with a link from a pdf on-line,when i click on it,the page adds a "%" at the and of the link and says "page not found" because of it

    Hi guys. i have some problem with a link from a pdf on-line,when i click on it,the page adds a "%" at the and of the link and says "page not found" because of it.
    This happens only when a load my pdf file on my server, because if i click on the link when the file is on my iPad, the page opens without problem.
    Any help please?
    thanx

    the % sign is often used when there's a space in a name. HTML doesn't like spaces so it fills them with % or %20
    try, on the end of that link, see if there's a space built into the page or the link when the page was made
    On the web address you may be able to 'backspace' at the end and erase that space to get the address, but whomever made the page possibly put a mistake in the link

  • All of a sudded, my firefox browser isnt allowing my to click links and open pages, or open anything on the top area of the screen.

    All of a sudded, my firefox browser isnt allowing my to click links and open pages, or open anything on the top area of the screen. For example i go to my email and i cant click on inbox, send, create, folders, mark as unread. It is like this on every website?? Its really annoying i cant do anything becasue most sites have login at the top of the screen and i cant login to anything.

    That problem can be caused by the Yahoo! Toolbar that extents too much downwards and covers the top part of the browser window and thus makes links in that part of the screen not clickable.
