HyperLinks in Auto Hot Key

[tclass117]

Looked for some threads, and they seemed incorrect or offtopic to the simple solution.


I'm looking to get a hyperlink http://www.facebook.com/ to show up as FB

Do you mean that you want to edit a HTML document to show FB instead of http://www.facebook.com/ ?

I use a Ticket system that uses Rich Text. I'm learning how to work with Rich Text and ADK/Notepad Files

So I need a link, http://www.facebook.com/, to be a hyper link, FB in a Hot String.

I've research this and even tried to Create a hyperlink in Word and then save the document as RTF.

It is just not possible or is it just so easy and stupid of me? : (

I hope example script below is what you're looking for;
When you type "fb" and press space, if MS Word is active window, and there is a opened document, script will insert Facebook hyperlink.

Code: Select all

#IfWinActive ahk_class OpusApp
::fb::
MSWordInsertHyperlink("Facebook","http://www.facebook.com/")
return
#IfWinActive

MSWordInsertHyperlink(TextToDisplay,Address) {
	try oWord := ComObjActive("Word.Application")
	try oWord.ActiveDocument.Hyperlinks.Add(oWord.Selection.Range, Address,"","",TextToDisplay)
}

Not Quite. Thanks for the help though! Ignore anything about MS WORD.

I just need a Hot string to send a hyper link.

For instance,

I type "GS~!" and it spits out GameSpot instead of "http://www.gamespot.com/213/example".

In which program typing gs has to insert GameSpot hyperlink instead of "http://www.gamespot.com/213/example"

How to send formatted/rich data (formatted text, links, images, etc)

WinClip might work for you (all depends on the target program) - Option 4 here with examples https://autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=8977

The program is Oracle RightNow which allows Rich Text.

I have automated some of the URL dialogs for Office programs but have never considered being able to directly insert a link straight from the clipboard... I'd be interested in seeing a working example of this if you get something working.

[tclass117]

I'll see what I can do. I'm not even thinking about clipboard.

In my head, its a simple "If this, then this" kind of statement.

I'm not a good programmer. In college, we had to create the Memory Card game and I couldn't make it two player.

It would just continue to stay on player one. So either their score went up or it didn't.

Try the example, if it works just change the html code you need.
