Only loop through links on Page (not pasteboard)

[hithereitsmehere]

Hi I'm looping through links with a script at the moment, but forgot about Pasteboard items, is there any simple adjustment to make it only look at parentPage=1 links for example?

    var doc = app.activeDocument;      

    var links = doc.links ;   

    // start loop .......................    

  for(var i = 0; i < links.length; i++) {   

link = links;

....

var objs = app.activeDocument.pageItems.everyItem().getElements(); 

while(obj=objs.pop()){ 

     if(obj.parentPage == null)  // Check the condition it will only  find the links in the page

          } 

}

Try this,

var doc = app.activeDocument;

var links = doc.links;  

for(var i = 0; i < links.length; i++)

{  

	if(links.parent.parent.parentPage != null)
	{
	alert(links.name)
	}

}

Hi newtoindesign

Give this a try. You may have to refine it further.

main();
exit();

function main() {

    var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
    var myLinks = myDoc.links.everyItem().getElements();
    for(var i = 0; i < myLinks.length; i++) {
        // parent = e.g. imported Page
        // parent.parent = rectagle
        // parent.parent.parentPage is a page or null

        if (myLinks.parent.parent.parentPage != null) alert("I am on a page");
        else alert("I am not on a page");
    }
}

kind regards
