How to create hyperlink in the page already opened?Hello,
I am looking for the way to invoke hyperlink functionality when the user clicks on selected word. Is that possible? I can use javascript to retrieve the word clicked on. How can I embedd that word into href = ??? Or is there another way? Thanks, Jack You have to select the word in FP, then right click and select hyperlink properties, then you can
create the link and manually add the word. -- Show quote============================================== Thomas A.

I have written already programs. The solution can be embedded within it. In fact that hyperlink will interact with my program. That is the whole idea. I want to do something similar what Skype did. There is Skype plugin for IE, which does just that. It searches web page for phone numbers, highlights them and turns them into hyperlink, which interacts with Skype. I would like the same but without a need for plugin.

I have already explained how that works. It creates hyperlinks which with the single mouse click (as hyperlink normally work) interact with the main Skype app. Jack Show quote "Steve Easton" <ad***@95isalive.com> wrote in message news:%23otgY$hLIHA.4948@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > Well, I don't use Skype but I would assume that the Skype plug in adds an > item > to the right click context menu in IE that the user clicks to grab the > phone numbers. > If so, the plug in is either an .exe or .dll that contains a routine that > searches the active document > for phone number "strings". > > Something along the lines of a custom Web Browser control. > http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa752040.aspx > > > -- > > Steve Easton > Microsoft MVP FrontPage > FP Cleaner > http://www.95isalive.com/fixes/fpclean.htm > Hit Me FP > http://www.95isalive.com/fixes/HitMeFP.htm > > "Jack" <replyto@it> wrote in message > news:eN$tZIgLIHA.4752@TK2MSFTNGP05.phx.gbl... >> Yes. >> I have written already programs.

Do they highlight it with the mouse and then click something? Does Skype automatically scan the page for "numbers" and turn them into a "clickable" link?

Yes, thats right. 1. User opens webpage 2. Skype automatically (that what Skype plugin is for) scans that page, evaluates the found numbers, decides which number can be a phone number, then highlights it and making it clickable.

You said you can use javascript to retrieve the "word" that was clicked on. Assuming the variable name for the word clicked on is: str Your hyperlink would be a new variable var openit; openit = new String<("http:// +str ") or openit = new String< ("http://www.

I watched the demo. Instead of a clickable item on the right click context menu, they've added an icon to the IE toolbar, which is basically the same procedure. The icon fires either a .dll or an .exe that scans the pages. The process to add an Icon and function to IE's toolbar is called creating a browser extension: the info is here: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753587.aspx Creating the process that it fires is called creating a Browser Helper Object or BHO as Stefan mentioned: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb250489.aspx or creating a custom web Browser control as I mentioned: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa752044.aspx Do you have Skype installed? If so, run regedit and go here: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Extensions and look through the list of Extensions and you will see the registry entries used when the Skype icon is clicked, to fire either the .dll or .exe that Skype uses to parse the page and highlight the numbers. Also fwiw, I have written an IE add in and wrapped it in an installer that adds an IE toolbar Icon that launches the program I wrote. ( custom web browser control ) What programming languages are you using / do you have available, and also, do you have any of the MSDN libraries installed on your machine? If you want a sample of what I wrote, email me. My reply to is valid.

I can use as much help as I can get. I think I will have problem with BHO. I have read some info about it on MSDN site and it seems it requires COM programming. My programming language is visual basic. I am using version 5 (enterprise), which I prefer over version 6 which I also have. What do you think, can I use it to program BHO? I do not keep any MSDN libraries in my computer, but I access them on MSDN website when needed.

That's going to make it kind of tough because the last MSDN versionwith the best VB support was October 2001, and the current online version has only VB.NET support. However there is a great VB newsgroup. Subscribe to: microsoft.public.vb.general.discussion and maybe also: microsoft.public.vb.controls microsoft.public.vb.winapi A great source of VB info is Randy Birch's website: http://vbnet.mvps.org/index.html and there are several others. Randy's site contains links to them. Regards and good luck. fwiw I use VB 6 SP 1 on both XP and Vista.

I cannot find answer to these questions: 1. Do I need an icon placed on IE taskbar (to do what I want to do)? 2. Is that a requirement for BHO? 3. Why there is that convulsing method of creating GUIDS etc, instead of just making a simple entry into registry? 4. Creating button running a script ------------------------------- does it apply to java script or some other script? is it possible to make IE to run that script automatically (without clicking on that button)?
