I have created an ICS file. And it has a hyperlink for a text. In outlook 2013, it is working fine. But in other email clients, it is showing me the full URL along with the hyper linked text. Refer the below screenshots.

This is only working fine in Outlook2013. Refer this screenshot.

Please help to resolve this issue.
Thanks in advance.
Venil, Not all calendar or email applications will cope with html in the event description. Of course some choose to, however the specification tends to indicate that the DESCRIPTION is meant to be 'plain' text. Some applications will convert a plain url (no hyperlink) to a clickable one. It may be safer and cleaner to use a plain url rather than the html hyperlink. See the RFC5545 specification links:
The DESCRIPTION definition in the RFC5545 specification says it is of type text. A text type is defined as human readable. The spec allows for an ALTREP that may contain html. Putting all that together implies that the DESCRIPTION field is not intended to have html.

I have problems adding a new URL when I manage knowledge base in QnAMaker.
I've tried adding this Url but I get the error:
Failed to extract QnAs from the source "URL" - Unsupported / Invalid url(s). Failed to extract Q&A from the source.
I've tested deleting the footer, publishing the page and in this case the URL works properly.
Also, I tested other very similar URLs, like this one and this has been parsed successfully.
What could be the problem?
It would appear that something with the way the questions are encoded on that page is preventing QnAMaker's services from reading the text of the question/answer pairs. In order to get those questions, I was able to copy paste the whole list:
I put them all into a word doc (or equivalent program), and then saved it as a PDF:
Then uploaded this to QnA Maker, where it was able to read the question/answer pairs just fine.
The reason I used a PDF as opposed to a .txt file is so the alternate characters (the Spanish ? for example) would render as well as the bullets from the final question that caused so much grief for the initial renderer.
After left feedback in azure site, QnA Maker Team fixed it. Now, the url is parsed properly.
I am trying to generate specflow mstestexecution report with the screenshots path mentioned as link. I made use of Console.Writeline() to mention the screenshots path but its getting dispalyed as text in the report. Please provide your inputs on the same.
The HTML report sees everything as plain text even if you use HTML tags. This is by design. You can change the behaviour of specflow.exe yourself, it is an open source project on GitHub.
When you don't want to dive to deep into that, you need a more ugly work around: You could consider to tag your links with another token (like {img} instead of ) and than search and replace in the .html file for all {img} to for example.
Using Jekyll and Github, it seems that whichever markup language I choose, MD or Textile, I cannot have the program compute the name of the link text to be the same as the link path itself. In other words, I'd like to be able to just spell out a URL and have the markup figure out it should be made into an href.
Is there a way to do this in either Markdown or Textile?
Alternatively, is there another markup language that I can plug-in to my blog to get this feature?
As far as I know it is impossible to do that with a standard MD/textile parser. You will always have to specify the link text and it's target.
However, you could create this functionality by modifying an existing MD/textile parser and dropping that in place of a stock parser. Obviously this can't be done on Github.
In that case you could just write your MD/textile in any programmer's text editor and use regex substitution to find and fix the url notation.
I want my application to be able to set IE, Firefox, Chrome & Operas homepages when a button is pressed. I understand IEs homepage is set in the registry, which I understand how to change, but can anyone give me any help with the others? Thanks
Chrome stores the homepage in a file called 'Preferences'. On Windows XP, this is located at;
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Local Settings\Application
Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default
On Vista+, it's located at;
C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default
This file is JSON format, and so it can be opened and viewed as plain text. In order to change the homepage, you'd need to load the JSON from this file, and change the homepage field value. You may also need to change the homepage_changed field value in order for it to stick. Using something like SuperObject to change the field would be an easy solution (if I get time, I'll write up some example code later).
Firefox uses a pref.js file to store it's settings, and realistically, a way of changing this would be to load this file, find the something that's along the lines of;
user_pref("browser.startup.homepage", "[URL]");
...and edit it as appropriate before saving the file. This should be a simple task using some simple find-and-replace code. I'd strongly advise that you use a pos() function though, as it could be that the end-user has already got their own custom homepage set and so searching for a preset string (e.g. [URL]) may not work, and certainly wouldn't be reliable.
A quick search hasn't given me enough information about Opera to provide a solution, but I'll keep looking and respond if I do find such a way.
Note that none of these methods have been tested and are merely provided based upon some very quick research.
I have a templates written in RTF(with some tags which are replaced by data from DB in app), but when I edit them in MS Word, Word put some invisible tags to the templates, which destruct my tags(I must open template in Notepad and edit code).
Do you know some editor for RTF, which strict follows RTF specification?
Thanks
On Windows, the included app Wordpad is pretty decent in my opinion.
The RTF spec allows an RTF editor such as Word or a third party control to sprinkle the tags in-between the RTF text, provided that the actually RTF display is maintained. For this reason, there is no way to guarantee that your original template text will not be disturbed. For this reason, I recommend using an RTF editor API to do any search/replacement within your template. The RTF editor knows to put aside the RTF tags and access the original text as intended.
OK, I know that google find bunch of editors, but I don`t have time to try each of them to find out best one.
so I search for advice which is good, not which is avialable
EDIT: I found and for weeks use this solution
TE EDIT
and is very good, I recommend it.
