Is There A Character Limitation For Hyperlinks In Outlook
Jan 14, 2010
We have a web application that allows users to send out customized emails to company employees and all recipients use Outlook 2007 as their email client. In rare occasions, it is possible that an email is sent with a hyperlink that has an apparently excessive number of characters. In these instances, there are no problems except the links will not open automatically when clicked in Outlook. The only way to open is to copy the URL and paste it into a browser.
We can handle this through code to not allow users to submit excessively long URLs but we'd like to avoid this situation, if possible. Before an email is sent, the server performs a number of HTML manipulations especially on URLs. If a user has submitted a long URL, we prefer to allow the long URL and make changes elsewhere.
Has anyone encountered this situation before and is it possible to overcome the character limitation so that links will open automatically when clicked?
I am using the ASP.NET default users database (Memebership) , I need two things Limit Users , I need to make limitation of creating new user , like maximum 10 users Same user name can't be used in other computer , and will signout or give error msg that somebody using same error without allowing user to login.
My issue is that , need to change the column name(following format "Remove first character and after 3rd character insert colon") of the gridview (which is binded with XMLTextReader). Without changing directly XML file, Required to change the column name dynamically at runtime .
I looked up the msdn documentation and it says that InvalidUserName is thrown when it does not find the username in the database, which is fine because the user I am creating should not exist in the database. If I use test@example.com, it works, but if I try it with test.@example.com, the status from Membership.CreateUser is InvalidUserName.
I have a legacy MySQL database which stores the user passwords & salts for a membership system. Both of these values have been hashed using the Ruby framework - roughly like this:
So both values are stored as 40-character strings (varchar(40)) in MySQL. Now I need to import all of these users into the ASP.NET membership framework for a new web site, which uses a SQL Server database. It is my understanding that the the way I have ASP.NET membership configured, the user passwords and salts are also stored in the membership database (in table aspnet_Membership) as SHA1 hashes, which are then Base64 encoded (see here for details) and stored as nvarchar(128) data.
But from the length of the Base64 encoded strings that are stored (28 characters) it seems that the SHA1 hashes that ASP.NET membership generates are only 20 characters long, rather than 40. From some other reading I have been doing I am thinking this has to do with the number of bits per character/character set/encoding or something related.
So is there some way to convert the 40-character SHA1 hashes to 20-character hashes which I can then transfer to the new ASP.NET membership data table? I'm pretty familiar with ASP.NET membership by now but I feel like I'm just missing this one piece. However, it may also be known that SHA1 in Ruby and SHA1 in .NET are incompatible, so I'm fighting a losing battle.
I want to read a line character by character, in the sense I want to read each and every character on the line. can I can make that line as a string. breaking string into substrings ? if possiblw how.? I m unable to start. can anyone give the code.
In my application, used has to enter a name and a link into a database amongst other things.They can then view what they have entered into the database.I'd like the name that they have entered be a hyperlink with the link that they have entered, so that they can click on it and it can redirect them to that link.
I have a report that is created using Telerik Reporing 2010.You have the ability to export to PDF.One of the cells contains a standard hyperlink that when viewed from the report view works fine The cell contains this simple link<a href="http://site.com">link</a>What I would like to be able to do is maintain the hyperlink functionality when the report is rendered to PDF.Im assuming PDF requires something more than just HTML to render a link ?
I am using AJAX Toolkit's Calendar extender control.
When the control is rendered on page, the day names are 2 character long and shown as "Su", "Mo", "Tu", "We", "Th", "Fr" and "Sa".
Instead, I want it to be rendered as 3 character long format as "Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri" and "Sat". note that I further need to localize this application too. So, I probably need some setting that could do the magic instead of overwriting on some server side event to achieve it.
There is probably some settings that I am not aware of.
The code for localizing the Calendar extender is as follows (in case if you need to test).
I am using the RadioButtonList Control, where the datasource comes from an object, and I set the atatextfield and value. All this works fine, but I am having trouble adding a hyperlink. I have tried going along this route: datatextfield = "<a href='http://www.abc.com'>+"myvalue"+"</a>", but this throws an error. How do I add hyperlink to my radiobuttonlist control?
What I'd like to do is a find-and-replace for certain words appearing in the body text of a web page. Every time a certain word appears in the body text, I'd like to convert that word into a hyperlink that links to another page on our site.
the problem with the above is that TABINDEX does not work. I have also a username and password TEXTBOXES and the tabindex works with them, but the hyperlink does not work.
i need it also on other links, so replacing a sign in with a button is not helping me much, unless i replace all links with a button.
how to figure out why the hyperlink's tabindex is not working?
I have a masterpage with hyperlink controls that I just noticed are not working (all of them) they give me the text cursor, not a click cursor, but I also have an identical masterpage with one less column (basically copies) that they all work, Anyone know of a reason why the hypelink control would stop working?
I want to add alt="" to all hyperlinks on page load. I have many many hyperlinks (both master & content and programic & coded) and I don't want to do Add.Attrubute() to each hyperlink. Is there a way to do this similar to the javascript getElementsByTagName concept?
I have a RSS feed and there is a string which has multiple links in it, something like this:"The Davy app launched yesterday. Check it out here http://bit.ly/bhm4FT http://fb.me/D644kDP8"Does asp.net have any function to make links automatically or will I have to write code to loop through the string and create the links?
I have file paths which points to a file which is stored in a database I cannot use the hyperlink control because it can be any number of paths can any one tell me how to create hyper link dynamically so that i can points to the file.
Android is not allowing this simple hyperlink: http://rentonlive.com/TandL.aspx?xid=106&xtitle=RED%LIGHT%CAMERAS%READER%SURVEYI get a web page not found error.Is there something wrong with the construction of the link in terms of Android?I downloaded an emulator, same problem. The phone says it has a browser, finding the 'rules' to this 'browser' is very difficult.And, all works fine in Google Chrome.Any pointers or sites that provide answers to Android issues appreciated.
I have a datalist.what i want to do is to show my data from database as hyperlinks, and when i click on any of that link it redirects to other page. In that directed page i am getting the link text by "querystring". Every thing is working fine but the problem is that when i put the same datalist inside a tab container the "querystring" returns Null.
I guarantee the title of my thread does not explain what I am looking for, but I just can't think of a better way to word it. What I have right now is an application that the user can add, search, and update various orders in the System. I've been working on the front end page, and wanted to display a summary of all orders performed this month. Right now the Orders are represented as labels (based on data pulled from the database). What i'd like to do is replace these labels with hyperlinks. I was hoping that by doing that I could somehow write some code so that when an order is clicked that the user is taken directly to the search page and that order is displayed.
I have a DataTable which has columns that are generated dynamically at runtime. This DataTable is bound to a GridView that has AutoGenerateColumns set to true. I've run into a problem with this since some of the data in the DataTable are HyperLink objects, so instead of displaying the actual link in the table, it displays "System.Web.UI.WebControls.HyperLink".
Normally, I would just use a HyperLinkField in my GridView, but since the GridView's columns are generated automatically, I'm not sure how to do this.
