The 4 new Portal Tutorials have localhost links

[Former Member]

When I open any of the 4 new tutorials on SDN (such as "How to access an EJB"), all of the contained links have a protocol:domain of http://localhost. Unless SAP secretly installed the content on everyone's machine ...!

Example:

<p><a href="http://localhost/Documents and Settings/i024527/Desktop/Linda/Tutorial/ch01_010.htm" class="standard">Click here to start the tutorial.</a></p>

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the good catch. I'm going to forward this information to our eLearning gurus.

Best Regards,

David

Hello Michael,

Can you tell us which browser you are using to access these tutorials? They are mht types and certain browsers require the installation of additional plugins for them to work correctly.

Thanks,

David

I use IE 6 on XP SP2, all the latest stuff. All the links in the new tutorials have URLs like this:

http://localhost/Documents and Settings/i024527/Desktop/Linda/tutorial/...

This isn't a plugin issue, as there's only plain old HTML on these pages. Looking forward to read them once the links work.

Sorry for the late reply, but I got an e-mail which I acted on and thus never saw this reply in the forum.

I believe David is correct, as an .mht resource it worked when I downloaded the file to my local workstation and I may have needed to get the latest SP for IE6 as well.

The "MyCouments/...Linda..." references are still in there but it works. I haven't worked with .mht before so without delving into it, it works now.

thanks,
