If a type in a dialog box on a website, is the owner of the website able to access the text? Note I have not submitted the page or draft in any way.
Furthermore if the dialog box is a address bar and comes up with address suggestions and I pick one is the owner of the website able to access this information? Note I have also not submitted the page or draft here.
Many Thanks
If you mean by dialog box input fields inside an HTML page, then the frontend code can listen to changes on the input fields, while you are typing and send that information to the backend. Nothing stops the frontend code from doing that, so it is possible.

I have a Slack bot that, in response to a /command - a search query - can display a list of matched database entries. I would like to present this list as a clickable link + short summary for each of the DB entries (using blocks).
Example:
Clicking the link for any entry should tell the Slack bot to display the full database record as a new Slack message.
I can't figure out how to get a link to do anything other than open the browser. None of the options for deep linking, or linking to a bot mention appear to be suitable.
Can anyone think of a solution for this? I would prefer not to give each list entry a button or accessory to 'open' the link.
already tried :
Each item as an https:// link to the node app behind the bot, passing the title to be displayed. This works but opens a browser window in the interim.
Mentioning the bot in a link <#ABOTID>Title to open
You can only deep link to existing messages, but not use links the same way you can use buttons.
You could of course link directly to your app, but that would always also open the browser, which as you say you don't want.
So for blocks you are left with the option you already mentioned: putting a button next to each entry in the form of a Section with a button.
An alternative would be to use Secondary Attachments. Those are automatically collapsed for longer text and the user gets a button he can click to expand them.
Is it possible to determine if a user came to your site by clicking a link shared in whatsup, viber or some other popular messenger?
They usually do send request to shared link so that they get metadata to display, and that can be determined through the user agent. However, when user actually clicks on link, unless messanger has browser built in, user agent is whatever browser they opened it in.
Using apache/nodejs/vuejs
Apparently, it is impossible. When a clicked link or programmatic request invokes a web URI intent, an OS allows the user to select an app from a dialog where it can be opened. So it doesn't add any additional information to the link while opening.
Probably make sense to consider generating unique links for every application so that you know where the user comes from.

Is there a way to make an email address clickable that opens default email client. I am testing this on my local and it works fine. But when I promote code to server it does not work.
java.awt.Desktop.getDesktop().mail(new java.net.URI("mailTo:"+ user.Contact.EmailAddress1))
I'm assuming that java.getDesktop is not available on server side? Is there another way to do this in Guidewire?
If you have the email address in a TextInput control, just pick the formatType email from the control properties.
If the control would be in read-only state it will display appropriate link starting from mailto:
I have created a contact form under Forms with first name, last name, and email that is designed to sign up people for a newsletter. I then created a page so when people click on the link placed on the home page it takes them to a page with the contact form.
Right now when I test the subscribe form out, the data does to to the "back office" where it can be retrieved. However, the information I entered is still in the text fields and, unless you notice the small flash of the web page, one might think nothing happened.
I'd like to know how (or be directed to somewhere in the Kentico 8.2 Documentation) I can make it so that the fields clear and a message appears saying "You have been subscribed to the newsletter." That message can either appear on a separate page on the web site, or send a message to the user email, or both. In the Email Marketing part under the templates there are Subscribe and Unsubscribe templates, but I don't know how to use those.
The other issue is creating an Unsubscribe link. Ideally that will open up to a new page saying "You have been unsubscribed." Kentico 8.2 has an unsubscribe page you can create where the user enters in an email address and then hits the Unsubscribe Request button, but I'd rather not do that. As it stands, I did create a page with that form and tested it, but it doesn't seem to work.
When you edit your form, under general tab, there are settings for what will happen after the form is submitted:
Display Text
Redirect to URL
Clear Form
Continue Editing.
Currently you're using the standard Forms application for something which can be managed through the Newsletter/Email Campaign module. Read the documentation more on how to configure this vs. using the Forms application.
Essentially the steps you will do are:
Create your newsletter following the directions in the linked documentation.
Place a newsletter subscription webpart on your page template and configure it to the newsletter you want them to subscribe to.
Use the out of the box unsubscribe feature to allow users to unsubscribe to your newsletter. No need to add any page to the content tree but you can if you want OR just use the OOTB functionality.
If you follow the documentation you should be able to get it setup properly vs. using an online form.
What would be the best way to construct a contact form in Drupal 6 for each node of a particular type? I have some CCK nodes of type "profile" which have email address as a field. I want to have a view for each node with a contact form that users can fill out and send with their own email address as a return address (so that further contact is being done offsite).
Basically I just want that initial email contact to be done through my site, and when the recipient replies it just goes to the address that the sender entered when they filled out the contact form.
You might be asking yourself why I don't use the personal contact form that comes baked into Drupal. The issue is that the way my institution deploys their Drupal instances to use the local Kerberos logins, the user accounts it creates in Drupal do not have email addresses. They just get a basic skeleton account with username. I don't really want to force users to go through another hoop of editing their user account info, because they most likely just won't do it.
There is nothing to do particularly with node itself, all you need for this - is form with fields (from, to, subject, message) and custom submit handler for this form.
you can implement all this in custom module using forms API to create form and write custom submit for it. And in this submit you need to send email via drupal_mail() - take a look at this, it is provides examples as well. That topic can help you with forms.
Then, if you need to place this form within a node, you can do the following:
via hook_nodeapi, on "view" operation, add form you've created before, you can check for particular node_type and use existing field values (you mentioned cck field with email) to pre-fill form. So that every time user views node, he sees this form.
as logical continue of your task, I suggest it makes sense to take a look at menu system and create local task (tab) for the node, where you'll display email form.
In general, that's all. There are of course other ways of implementing this, however I think this one is the easiest for understanding.
