1. Re: Email links for this forum not working
john cornicello (retired) Nov 30, 2006 5:01 PM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)Are you subscribed through your Profile (and get notices of all new posts in the Kuler Forum) or are you subscribed to individual discussions via the Subscribe to this topic link?
I'm subscribed via my profile page and am getting the emails with working links. I'll try changing that to only be subscribed to this particular discussion. Please add a reply and I'll follow the link and see what happens.

3. Re: Email links for this forum not working
3ABNPublishing Dec 1, 2006 6:25 AM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)I am subscribed to individual discussions, not through my profile to the whole forum.
Here is a sample link that generates an error (as it appears in the Entourage email client):

4. Re: Email links for this forum not working
3ABNPublishing Dec 1, 2006 6:27 AM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)OK, being somewhat knowledgeable of HTML, I do notice a potential problem: the first link and the second link in < > are not identical. I just tested, and the second one works. But for some reason, Entourage (even though it supports HTML email) displays both, and I've always clicked on the first. -

john cornicello (retired) Dec 1, 2006 8:55 AM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)Thanks for posting that. I'll send it along to the engineers.
I'm in via Outlook, it only displays the second link. But in the source view I can see both:

They appear to match where yours is missing the &threadid ini the first one.
Anyway, it is off to the engineers to look at.
Thanks!

3ABNPublishing Dec 1, 2006 9:04 AM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)...as well as missing the &forumid
Should be an easy fix. -

john cornicello (retired) Dec 1, 2006 9:08 AM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)Easy fix if it is the forum program that is stripping it out. More difficult if it is Entourage somehow doing that. As noted, I'm subscribed and am using Microsoft Outlook for mail and the URL is correct in both instances.

8. Email links for this forum not working
3ABNPublishing Dec 1, 2006 9:37 AM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)On further inspection, I can tell you what the problem is exactly: The URL is "correct" in both instances, except that because it is an HTML email, the &threadid and &forumid are falsely interpretted as HTML entities (the ampersand indicates an HTML entity), and are therefore hidden by Entouarge because they are meaningless entities (Outlook evidently handles meaningless entities differently). The href link is correct, but the text between the href tags in the source HTML should instead say:
quote:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=622&threadid=12192 53&forumid=72
...which will appear in the rendered HTML as:
quote:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=622&threadid=1219253&f orumid=72
(I hope that comes through correctly; basically the ampersands need to be replaced with the HTML entity for an ampersand, with is & ... hope you are following me.) -

3ABNPublishing Dec 4, 2006 6:37 AM (in response to 3ABNPublishing)I edited my previous post to be more clear. I am quite certain that my previous post contains the solution to this problem. -
