Hi Eduardo, The backslash in the marker window (sometimes) escapes the character following it. You need to use forward slashes instead.

Cidade Sr. Sent: Tuesday, August 02, 2011 3:42 PM To: framers at lists.frameusers.com Subject: Linking Problem Good afternoon I?ve been experiencing a tonload of trouble linking to documents in a server where the address contains backslashes ?\? and NOT forward slashes ?/? Problem: whenever I write the syntax to go to the hypertext link?...FrameMaker does funny things to the link itself?. Example: message URL \\jetblue.com\Docs\Manuals\jbdocs\Flight Operations Training Manual (FOTM).pdf becomes the following when I click ?Edit Hypertext Marker??.. message URL \\jetblue.com?ocs\smanuals\jbdocs?light Operations Training Manual (FOTM).pdf I think the use of the backslash is causing this?.or??is it a bug??? So I?m trying to use any tool native to FrameMaker to keep the link intact. This has been bothering me for a long time and it?s one of the laundry list items I?ve been trying to cure. Any assistance would be most appreciated?. Eduardo F.
