Can open a Web browser from the worksapce?

Hi,
we are using Adobe livecycle ES2.5, We are trying to add an action to our users to open a specific URL in a Web browser, is it doable?
Thanks
Hussam

Thanks Nith,
we did this before when using pdfs but in our case we are using Flex and we do not want to call the web browser from the flex we need it from the workspace directly,
please see the attachment, when the user clicks complete we want to open the browser instead of submitting the form to the next step.
any idea?
Regards

  • How to open a web browser from java

    Hi
    Would anybody please help me with this. I need to open a web browser from my java app but I don't know. What method I can use?
    Thanks.
    Hung.

    You can use the Runtime class for this. It can run any command. So, you can run the .exe file of your Web browser.
    The following code will run Internet Explorer (assuming iexplorer.exe is in C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer):
    import java.lang.Runtime;
    public class Explore{
    public static void main(String[] args) {
    try{
    Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("C:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore");
    }catch (Exception e) {
    System.out.println("Exception: " + e);

  • Opening a web browser from an After Effects script

    Hi,
    This may be a stupid question, but is there any way to open a web browser with a URL from an AE script, other than explicity lanuching the browser app via a sys.callSystem() command?
    I'm asking because obviously scripts need to run on both Windows and MacOS, and the user's default/preferred browser isn't necessarily going to be IE or Safari. That and I'd need to find the file path of the browser anyway somehow.
    It's to display external help.
    Thanks,
    Christian

    system.callSystem() can launch a URL without specifying the specific app. This code user's default browser. The last line is the main deal, the other stuff keeps it universal for PC and MAC.
    //CHECKS FOR USER OS
    function osCheck(){
              var op = $.os;
              var match = op.indexOf("Windows");
              if(match != (-1)){
                        var userOS = "PC";// User is on PC
              }else{
                        var userOS = "MAC";// User is on MAC
              return userOS;
    // RUNS OS CHECK FUNCTION
    var userOSVer = osCheck();
    //DEFINES PC OR MAC TERMINAL SYNTAX
    if(userOSVer == "MAC"){
              var urlLaunchCode = "Open";//Mac based
    }else{
              var urlLaunchCode = "Start";//PC based
    //ONCLICK FUNCTION FOR YOUR URL BUTTON CONTROL
    //urlLaunchCode = Open or Start / " " = keeps a space character separator / "http://myurl.com" = Defines the actual URL path
    myURLButton.onClick = function(){system.callSystem(urlLaunchCode + " " + "http://forums.adobe.com/thread/993523?tstart=0")};

  • Can you reload web application from the Weblogic console?

    Hi,
              I agree it is a much needed feature. Suppose I just change an init
              param of one application in the web.xml, I don't want to take down the
              15 other webapps running on my server just to be able to have that web
              app restart and re-read is configuration. Of course, I could program
              some servlet that allows changing application attributes and to enable
              restarting, but really this a)does not cover all the cases (i.e. addind
              an EBJ reference binding to web.xml) b) should be provided by the app
              server, not programmed by every little programmer again & again.

  • How to open a web browser from an windows phone app

    Hi everyone,
    I am pretty new to Windows Phone 7, and now what I am trying to do is to create a simple app. When a user click to start this app, a browser will open and show the content of a webpage from a specific address.
    I tried to use a webbrowser object, but it seems like that doesn't sport cookies. So I need my app to open a real web browser (maybe IE mobile) to do the job.
    Thank you.

    copying from stackoverflow: "If you want to embed a browser window inside your application then use  the WebBrowser control.  Add an instance of the WebBrowser control to  your form then you can reference it in code using the name you
    give  it.  (Default name is "webBrowser1")"

  • Opening a web browser from a Java prog

    I am writing a pseudo-wordprocessor, and would like to be able to set a JMenuItem's action so that when a user clicks it, the system default web browser opens with the web page that I have selected. (e.g. open up a "Help" web page).
    The JavaDoc/tutorial doesn't seem to have anything on running external programs from within a Java program, so does nayone know how this is done?

    If you don't want to go the Java Runtime route and make your program a bit more cross-platform friendly, you could use the JEditorPane to render an html page directly in your application (assuming of course that you're using Swing).

  • How do I save and import my bookmarks from another hard drive? When I try to open the installed Firefox on the old drive, it (obviously) opens a browser from the new main drive, free of bookmarks. Is there a way I can save the bookmarks on the old drive w

    How do I save and import my bookmarks from another hard drive? When I try to open the installed Firefox on the old drive, it (obviously) opens a browser from the new main drive, free of bookmarks. Is there a way I can save the bookmarks on the old drive without opening a browser?
    The guts of my computer were rearranged and I got a new main hard drive. My old one is still in there and I can get stuff from it, but when I go to the Mozilla folder on the old one, I can't figure out if there's anything I can do to get all my bookmarks from that drive to my new one, where Firefox is newly installed.

    If you open Firefox then Firefox will always use the default profile folder as found via profiles.ini on your system drive.
    You either need to import the file in your current default profile or copy the file to your current profile folder while Firefox is closed.
    Firefox 3 stores the bookmarks and the browser history in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/places.sqlite places.sqlite] and no longer creates an HTML backup by default.
    There are also (five) JSON backups in the bookmarkbackups folder within the Firefox profile folder.
    You can either copy the file places.sqlite to your [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] or import the most recent JSON backup from the bookmarkbackups folder of that old profile.
    See:
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Backing_up_and_restoring_bookmarks_-_Firefox
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Transferring_data_to_a_new_profile_-_Firefox
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
    "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders.
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
    Go to: Control Panel > Folder Options > "View" tab > under "Hidden files and folders", select "Show hidden files and folders".
    You may want to un-check the box "Hide extensions for known file types" to see the file extensions of all files.

    Can you open word doc. In pages? (Opening a doc. From the web) in the iPad or iPod tuch?

    NH,
    This may seem a fine point, but iWork apps don't actually Open Office apps. They Import them. The reason I make this distinction for you is that when you view the result of the import, you may see some variations from what was in the Office document because of an imperfect translation, and when you make edits, you are editing an iWork document, not the original Office document.

  • With OSX10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02 when I try to open a PDF downloaded from the web I get 'There was an error opening this document. This file is damaged and could not be repaired. Preview will not open either. Older PDFs OK.

    I am running OS X 10.7.5 and Adobe Reader 11.0.02. In the last few days I have been unable to open PDF's downloaded from the web. Reader gives the error message 'There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired'. Removing Reader and trying to use Preview to open these files give the error 'Preview cannot open this file. It may be damaged or use a file format that Preview doesn't recognise' (or something like that). Downloading the same files with Reader removed from my Mac Preview opens the files OK.
    I was recently prompted to update Adobe software but did not note exactly what the update was nor when it was done.
    Reader and Preview will both open PDFs I downloaded a week ago. Reader will also open files downloaded on another Mac running OS X 10.0.0 and copied to my Mac. Any ideas?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.

  • Open web browser from java application to specific page

    Hi,
    I used the code from http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip66.html to open a web browser to a specific URL. That worked great! However, I run into a problem if the URL targets a specific page, for example, "http://www.yahoo.com/news.html" would give me an problem with the shortcut problem. Any ideas how to get around that?
    The command rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler http://www.yahoo.com/news/ would work fine, except anything ends with .htm or .html.
    Thanks,
    David

    It looks like url.dll doesnt like .htm or .html files. For more info look here: http://www.jsiinc.com/SUBI/tip4100/rh4162.htm
    For some reason it is confused by the 'm' character in .html which is odd considering it has no problems with .com
    So if you want to keep using url.dll, do something like this:
    replace ".htm" with ".ht%6D"

  • Open URL in Web Browser from a Java Application

    Hi,
    I have an HTML document that I want to load in a browser window by clicking on a button in my java GUI application.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    You can use the Process class to start the web browser with the proper command line arguments (depends on the web browser though). Or on windows, you can have your program create a batch file with the code start url (where [url] is your url), and this will open the default web browser when run (again you must run it with a Process).

  • Can't open any apps downloaded from the internet after installing application loader update and messages beta

    I've run into an unusual problem recently. I think it it related to two recent software installs.The problem only started after i installed the new application loader.
    My issue : I'm unable to open application I downloaded from the web. I get the following error message below.
    Question: Has anyone else run into this issue and do you have a solution?
    Thanks for you help.
    P.S I haven't tried rolling back the lastest softwarte installs yet. I'm hoping I can avoid that.

    When I press cancel nothing happens. I can do nothing and it still won't load the program.

  • Opening an external URL from the Web UI

    Hello,
    I want to use the Web UI in order to open an external URL.
    I know it can be done easily using JavaScript, but the URL is generated from one of the page controller methods, and I want to open it directly from there.
    I know that there's the Window Manager in the Component Controller, that can open popup windows, but none of it's methods receive an external URL.
    So how can I open an external URL from the Web UI methods?
    Thanks,
    Udi.

    Hi,
    you can use the Trnsaction launcher with OP.
    in the window you create an OP_X
    with the code
      data: lv_navigation type ref to     if_crm_ui_navigation_service.
      lv_navigation = cl_crm_ui_navigation_service=>get_instance( me ).
      lv_navigation->navigate( iv_link_id = 'ZTO_X' ). "runtime you create the TO_X nevigation"
    in your implamentation class of the view you add a preotected method OP_TO_X with the code
       data:
        lr_window type ref to cl_bsp_wd_window.
      lr_window = me->view_manager->get_window_controller( ).
      lr_window->call_outbound_plug( iv_outbound_plug = 'TO_X'
                                     iv_data_collection = iv_data_collection ).
    and you call to that method from the EVENT_HANDLER you want.
    Amit.
