hi
i have the following problem:
i am creating a index notebook for some notebooks that are located in a
subdirectory (e.g. /dir1/index.nb points to nb files /dir1/dir2/1.nb
/dir1/dir2/2.nb) this should be done independent of the topdir everything is
located in and independent of the operating system used. i use a script to
generate the "dir" and "name.nb" strings and they are pasted correctly into
the ButtonFunction.
a friend of mine suggested to use
ButtonBox["aszdfg",
ButtonData:>{
FrontEnd`FileName[ {"dir"},
"name.nb", CharacterEncoding -> "ISO8859-1"] } ,....
however, this does not work. i tried some things and ended with
ButtonBox["open",
ButtonFunction:>{
FrontEnd`NotebookOpen[
FrontEnd`FileName[ {"dir"}, "name.nb",
CharacterEncoding -> "ISO8859-1"]]},
ButtonStyle->"Hyperlink"]
however, this does not work, either.
is there a clean way to set hyperlinks with relative paths ??
thanks for your help
gerald roth
