I find that I am only able to highlight and access links that are visible when the document first opens. Any links that are not visible at first, but can be seen by scrolling down, are impossible to access.

Is there anything I can do about this?

Also, will iSilo 5 be compatible with S60 3rd gen?

Thanks.

While in hyperlink mode, if you decide you do not want to follow any of the links currently visible, press the Clear key to exit hyperlink mode. You can then scroll.iSilo 5.0 added support for annotation capabilities on touchscreen devices. Since Symbian S60 is not a touchscreen platform, annotation capabilities were not added and so there was no new major version release for the Symbian S60 platform. But when there is a iSilo 5.x for the Symbian S60 platform, it will be compatible with S60 3rd Edition devices.

I want to access the hyperlinks that are on the bottom half of the home page of the iSilo document - the ones that arent visible when i first open the document. But these hyperlinks wont highlight even when I scroll the page down, so i cant action them.

[iSilo]

After you scroll down, just enter hyperlink mode again the same way you did for the first screen. Presumably you pressed Left or Right of the 4-way navigation key to do so. So when you get to a screen where you want to follow a link, just press Left/Right until you get to the desired link, then press the key in the center of the 4-way navigation key.

That's the problem. iSilo remains in hyperlink mode, but the only hyperlinks that I can highlight are the ones that were visible when I first opened the document. When I scroll down I can see the hyperlinks that are further down the page, but they cannot be highlighted.

[iSilo]

After you scroll down so that you can see the hyperlinks on the next page, if you press either Left or Right, are you saying that no links get highlighted?

[brilliantthings]

yes. That's right. But if i scroll halfway down and there are still links visible that were originally visible before scrolling (now at the top of the screen), these can be highlighted, but any hyperlinks below these can't . Does that make sense?

[iSilo]

That sounds highly unusual. You originally said that you were viewing the home page of the iSilo document. Is that the iSilo Display Sample document, the iSilo Manual document, or some other document?

[brilliantthings]

No. It's a document I created using iSiloX.

If the file is no more than a hundred kilobytes or so, would you be able to zip it and post it here? If it is large or you prefer not to post it here, please zip it and send it as a file attachment to http://www.iSilo.com/img/email.jpg so that we can try to reproduce the problem with the specific document in which you are encountering the problem.

[brilliantthings]

Thanks so much. I have emailed the document to that address. It is over 3Mb when zipped.

Cheers

Thanks for sending the document. The issue has to do with deeply nested tables. To work around the issue, you can disable table formatting through Menu/Edit/Options/Display/Layout/Disable table layout. After disabling table layout, you should be able to access all the links on the page.

[brilliantthings]

That's wonderful. Thanks very much. How can I disable table formatting permanently?

Also, I have uncovered another trouble...

Some hyperlinks do resolve to any location.

Eg. Following the links:
Psychotropic
Eating Disorders
Anorexia nervosa
Nonpharmacological treatment

Despite the fact that I made link depth '8' when creating the document in iSiloX this link does not work.

What could this be?

Thanks.

That's wonderful. Thanks very much. How can I disable table formatting permanently?Since you converted the document yourself, you can disable all tables before converting by setting the option to ignore all table formatting in iSiloX for the entry you created for conversion of the document through Properties/Tables/Ignore all table formatting. However, it is probably better to allow table formatting, but to have all tables be limited to one level deep by setting the option "Include only tables reachable up to 1 levels from the innermost tables", "Unfold full page top-level tables", and "Ignore pixel width specifications" on the same Properties/Tables page.

Thanks.It could be that the links are in JavaScript or are specified in a way that is incompatible with iSiloX. If you could zip the source content and email it, we can take a look to determine the cause. Please let us know the specific location of the links as well.

[brilliantthings]

Thank you,

I have emailed the source content and the iSilo document I made with iSiloX.

Please let me know if you can sort out the problem.

Thanks

[iSilo]

Thanks for sending the files. In the source HTML, the links that are unresolved appear to be links that point to a "http://" URL, whereas for the links that do work, the URL is a relative URL to some file in the source file set. You probably have some automated process that converts the web version to a local copy by transforming the URLs. That process appears to miss converting some of the URLs in the links.

For the example link path Psychotropic, Eating Disorders, Anorexia nervosa, Nonpharmacological treatment, the source HTML file that contains the last link is tgc/ptg/4448.htm. In that source HTML file, the URL for the "Nonpharmacological treatment" link specifies an http:// URL as the target of the link.

[brilliantthings]

That's interesting. Thanks for that.

Is there anything I can do to allow iSiloX to convert the source content properly?

[iSilo]

You can enable the "Follow off-site links" option (Properties/Links). However, when attempting to view the content of one of the URLs in a browser, the server required a user name and password. If the server uses the HTTP Basic Authentication mechanism, then you can enter the user name and password in Properties/Access.

[brilliantthings]

All working well now.

I ended up creating the document directly from the URL instead of downloading the source content first.

On my network a password is not required so that was not an issue.

You provide one of the best support forums I have ever come across.

Thanks very much
