When hyperlinks do not work correctly

[matthewforu]

When you click hyperlinks that are contained in e-mail messages from Microsoft Outlook Express after you upgrade your browser to Windows Internet Explorer 7, you may experience the following issues:

To solve this follow the steps

1. Click 'Start' and then click 'My Computer'.

2. On the 'Tools' menu, click 'Folder Options'.

3. In the Folder Options dialog box, click the 'File Types' tab.

4. In the 'Registered file types' list, click '(NONE) URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol' and then
click 'Advanced'.

5. In the 'Edit File Type' dialog box, click 'Edit'.
Make sure that you note the current values for the fields that are in this dialog box before you move
to next step. You may have to restore the values for the fields that you changed if this method does
not resolve the issue.

6. Type 'open' in the 'Action' box if it is not already there.

7. Type 'C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe' -nohome in the 'Application used to perform
action' box if it is not already there.

8. Click to select the 'Use DDE' check box if it is not already selected.

9. Type ''%1',,-1,0,,,,' in the 'DDE Message' box if it is not already there.

10. Type 'IExplore' in the 'Application' box if it is not already there.

11. Make sure that there is no value in the 'DDE Application Not Running' box. If there is a value in this
box, remove the value.

12. Type 'WWW_OpenURL' in the 'Topic' box if it is not already there.

13. Click 'OK' two times to close the 'Edit File Type' dialog box.

14. In the 'Registered file types' list, locate and then click '(NONE) URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol
with Privacy' and then click 'Advanced'.

15. Repeat step 5 through 14 by using the '(NONE) URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol with Privacy'
list item instead of the '(NONE) URL:HyperText Transfer Protocol' list item.

16. Click 'OK' to close the 'Folder Options' dialog box.

17. Test a hyperlink from Outlook Express.

Sometimes navbar links are being converted to images and thus killing the links in FF. In such case, try redesigning your navbar without the objects and layering. Start with just a plain text box with no fill or other formatting at all and test that. Then you can try adding formatting that you want to use, one step at a time, testing as you go. That's really the only way to find what will work and what won't. The basic problem is Publisher chokes on some print formatting when it converts it to html, and frequently the result is an image where you intended text.

You can test to see if text has been converted into an image by trying to select it. If you can't, then its an image.

You can test your pages in FF by directing your html output to a folder on your computer, open the .htm files with FF.
