I'm a web, database, and network architect based in NYC, with specializations in the financial services, publishing, and SaaS sectors. I build complex Marketo integrations for companies large and small... and can make Marketo forms and emails do things you never thought possible! Check out my blog at https://blog.teknkl.com, which has Marketo-specific technical insights you won't see anywhere else, along with wider topics from my programming and systems work.

  • Re: Redirecting an Image/PDF Link

    It's the most basic Javascript imaginable: However I know any code can make non-coders nervous (which isn't really a bad thing).I still don't really understand the use case for images, though. PDFs I can understand (if you want to make sure that if people use an old PDF link it links to updated data...

  • Re: Redirecting an Image/PDF Link

    @ChristinaPappas if you want to manage access URLs for a static asset, set up a landing page that does a javascript redirect to the asset's URL. Then manage redirects at the LP level like @Josh said.Note the asset will still be available via its direct URL, so you want to publish the LP URL(s) only...

  • Re: Blank lead records created.

    @David H no JavaScript, no validation. Anyone running a NoScript extension or similar can submit the forms to the backend without the "requiired" fields because they aren't truly mandatory on the lead.Nobody is spoofing IPs. There may be malicious users behind the firewall at the inferred company,...

    @David P I see now that you are Shindigz!That will make it quite easy to integrate fully on the client side, without any server work at all and no rate limit worries. What you want to do is add an additional submit event listener to your form that re-packages the same form data and sends it to Marke...

    @David P do you have access to add JS code to the Shindigz page? Do you get a copy of the Shindigz data via email or via their API? Please explain how you would plan to intercept/replay the form post in the first place.

    @Kenny E While the rate-limiting may be easier to deal with using REST or SOAP, that's only if (1) one is able to schedule requests asynchronously using the API call, but not with one's implementation of server-side form post (which is really a coding issue) and (2) one is unable to maintain an inte...

  • solved badge Re: Need a link in an email that goes nowhere

    I then wanted to just have little pop up window that has the thank you message instead of a full landing page that opens in a new tab.Yeah, you can't do this because it implies that the e-mail app is capable of running JavaScript, as @Justin C mentioned (I would go further than he did and say, "It i...

  • solved badge Re: Need a link in an email that goes nowhere

    @Aqeel that setting is useless in real-world mail apps for two reasons. One, web-based mail apps already open links in new windows rather than overwriting the mail app window itself. Two, standalone mail apps have to launch a browser window in any case, so by definition they aren't overwriting any...

  • Re: Landing Page - Token Formatting

    Fix is simple: div#lpeCDiv_36605 { color: white !important;}However I would take out as much of the element styles from your tokens as you can, otherwise you'll always have to do workarounds like this. As a general rule of thumb, you should only need to use !important rules when you're forcibly r...

  • Re: Landing Page - Token Formatting

    @Frannie C it would be helpful to see the actual page you're talking about.It's possible that element styles (the style= attribute) are being applied to your token; those will override CSS rules that are not deliberately marked !important. So it may not be that it isn't "working" per se but rather ...
