Oxygen XML Forum

Hi!

It is my first post and I am just evaluating oXygen.

I’m trying to start an application (CT = ConnectedText) with parameters via an URL.


<sect1>
<title>Section1 Title</title>
<subtitle>Subtitle of Section 1</subtitle>
<para>Link 1: <link xlink:href="ct://Testumgebung/Topic%201"/></para>
<para>text text text</para>
</sect1>

Unfortunately it does not work. When the mouse is hovering over the link symbol oXygen tells ‘click to open: null’

Is it possible to solve the problem in another way? It is absolutely to me to start the application via an URL.

Thanks in advance! (Unfortunately my XML knowledge is bad)

Hi,

This doesn't work because you have a URL with a custom protocol ('ct') that Oxygen does not know how to handle. Unfortunately the list of URL protocols is not user configurable.
I don't see a simple way around this. For the Author mode you could implement an Oxygen plugin or extension that does what you want (starts the application), but that requires some Java knowledge and the Oxygen SDK.
