Can't get Open Browser Window behavior to work.

Can anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong? I don't know a lot of code and work
mostly in Design mode. I'm a new DW user having just begun importing sites from GoLive to DW.
Here's a page where they're not working: http://www.philasecurities.com/data/luncheon.html
The "more..." links are not opening new windows like they used to in GL.

As I already mentioned, try removing the '/' preceding the function:
function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
window.open(theURL,winName,features);

Open Browser Window behavior not working in IE6 Win

Using DW 8 on Mac and can't get this Open Browser Window
behavior to work in IE 6 on a Windows machine. Any
suggestions?

This page is a GoLive page, and it throws a js error when it
loads because
of some of the GoLive code you have left therein.
I see that link as orange in IE6. And when you click on the
link, you throw
another js error, because the function (MM_openBrWindow) is
not defined on
the page - which is what causes the link to open in a
full-size browser
window. If it were not for that js error, you would get TWO
windows opening
since you have BOTH a link and the behavior, and the behavior
is not
'killed' with a return false, like this -
<a href="aptapp.html" class="override"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('aptapp.html','QualifyforFREEMOVE','scrollbars=yes,width=760,hei ght=800');return
false">

Open Browser Window behavior not working

Just getting started with DW from GL - have successfully imported a few sites into DW from GL and am having trouble getting the Open Browser Window behavior to work. Worked fine in GL, code is similar but different. Have tried different things and am out of ideas. I'm not too code-savy.
Here's where the non-working behaviors/actions are: http://www.philasecurities.com/data/luncheon.html
When a user clicks on the red "more..." links they should open a new browser window like they do in the "Click
here for previous years..." section.
Any help would be appreciated!

bregent, thanks for your input but unfortunately most of that's greek to me. Could you either supply me with sample code for one of these links or explain what I'm doing wrong in the design mode? I've followed DW instructions and as far as I can tell I'm doing what I'm supposed to in the behaviors tag inspector. Not sure about some of the settings I should have when browsing for the linked file to open in the new browser window. What should the parameters be set to? What should the relative link be set to, document or site root? How about some of the other options like Select file name from: data sources, server, site root? I've messed with them and tried different combinations but nothings working for me.

Trouble with the Open Browser Window behavior

I have a page with thumbnail images. I want to be able to
click the thumbnail and have a new window open with just that image
in the window. If I don't assign a link to the thumbnail, and
select the Open Browser Window behavior, the only 3 options for
when to open the window are onLoad, onError, or onAbort. I want it
to be opened onClick. If I do assign a link to the image, and then
select the Open Browser Window behavior, it gives me the option to
open the window onClick. However, when I test it, it opens 2 new
windows - the one I want, and the one that is the link that I
assigned to the image.
I can't figure this out! Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

You must always do the following when applying behaviors to
images:
1. Assign a link to the image first, even if it is a null
link. Use the
Property inspector to do this.
2. Click on the image in Design view, then click on the
<a> tag that you
see on the Tag inspector bar at the bottom of the document
pane so that the
anchor tag is selected.
3. Now apply your behavior.
You *can* usually truncate this process as follows -
1. Select the image in Design view and make sure that
<img> is selected on
the Tag selector bar.
2. Apply the behavior.
3. Use the behavior panel to set the event desired to
<A> onClick, or <A>
onMouseOver, or any of the appropriate "<A>" containing
items in the list.

Ie7 open browser window behavior problem

I'm stuck! I'm using the open browser window behavior to have
a click through to a small photo on my site. I have defined the
dimensions and it works fine in firefox but in ie7 the browser
window is too wide - wider than the size I defined...
Can anyone help?
You can see the problem is you visit
http://www.dizigniz.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/anastasia/anastasia.htm#
and click on the 'view' button under 'Swatches'

If you are opening an image directly in the browser, you will
never succeed
in doing this. Is that what you are doing? If so, then
investigate the use
of

do without it!

Open Browser Window Behavior

I am using the Open Browser Window behavior. When test on my
machine, it works fine in IE, Safari, Firefox and Navigator. When I
upload to my test server it does not open at the correct size in IE
7 (did not test earlier versions) and Safari 3. In both browsers,
the new window is tiny, whereas I am specifying 460 wide and 490
high.
The code for this behavior is: <li>Chairman - John
Andrews (<a href="#"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('Bios&Roles/BioJMA.html','BioJMA','width=460,height=490')">b io</a>)</li>
The page is at:
http://www.collabracom.com/Home-Test8/About/Index.html#
I have the behavior inside a Tabbed Panel. The links for this
behavior on on the "Leadership" tab.
John

My pet peeve - a website in a single page.
It works fine for me in IE7. Once I found the tab.

Open Browser Window Behavior - Why is hover cursor and I-beam vs finger?

Why do links that use the Open Browser Window Behavior create
an I-Beam when one mouses over while all other links display the
finger icon? The I-Beam is hard to see and not the "normal" thing a
visitor to a site expects to see when hovering on a link. Anybody
know what this is about?
I am attaching the code. At least I think I am...
And here is a page in a site I am working on that shows this
phenomenon:
Click
here.
The link I am referring to is in the body: "Let's try a Notes
Popup here"
Thanks!

Your A tag is missing its href atrribute, which in this case
should be
"popuptest_1.html" and then add ";return false;" after the
openBrWindow
call, so this:
<a style=""
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('popuptest_1.html','','resizable=yes,width=300,height=200')">Let
try a Notes Popup here.</a>
becomes this:
<a style="" href="popuptest_1.html"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('popuptest_1.html','','resizable=yes,width=300,height=200');retu rn
false">Let's try a Notes Popup here.</a>

Open browser window behavior in Mac not working right

I am simply selecting my text in my html document and then selecting "Open Browser Window" from the Behaviors panel. I then put in the info for the file I want it to open along with the size, etc...
When I test it in the browser (Safari) the link works but the rollover features don't show ... it doesn't show as a link in the browser window. I followed the tutorial exactly and the instructor's browser showed the link as a rollover. It's driving me a bit crazy.
I'm using CS5 on the latest version on Mac OS (Snow Leopard).
I can put up an example if needed.
Thanks so much for any assistance.

A:hover with "open browser window" behavior?

Hi,
Is it possible to make a text link follow the a:hover style (CSS?) with the behavior of "open browser window"?
I've been using the "OnClick" option (for behaviors), but the cursor doesn't turn into the little hand symbol so I feel like people won't know that you can click on it. If I could make it change color like it does when it is a direct link, or if i could make the hand symbol appear, that would be great.
Thank you in advance!!

We'd need to see your code but I'm guessing you did not highlight the link text and make it a null link.

Open Browser window behavior question

I have linked files set to open in a 600x700 browser window when an image is clicked. Everything works fine, but when my cursor is over the image, there is no icon (cursor doesn't change to a hand) that indicates a linked file to the user. How can I fix this?
You can see the page here.

Add a CSS style for images
cursor:pointer;

How to get the text of an onclick/'open browser window' behavior to look like a link

If I set this behavior to a specific word (on an <a> tag without the 'href') the link is not underlined and the mouse does not turn into a pointer. If I set this behavior to a full <a> tag with the 'href="..."' then the browser opens a new window (as per the behavior) and a new page on the original window (as per the href="..."). How do I get the link to appear as a link (underlined and mouse changing into pointer) without having to assign a href="..." to the <a> tag?

Gary,
I appreciate the time you are giving me to address my question. However, even though I would like to have this link stand out to the viewer, I do not want it to stand out from all the other links that surround it. Also, I have tried the solution you have given me, yet it to also causes the browser to load the new window and the original page. There is no difference whether the behavior is linked to <a href> or some other tag as long as there still is an <a href> the original browser will load the new page as well.

Why does "Open Browser Window" Behavior only give the option for "OnMouseOver"?

The title says it all. I want to use the OnClick behavior butit will not let me have that option. I can not figure it out, nor find anything on Google.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan.

Which one?
2014.0 (June of last year)
2014.1 (October last year)
2014.1.1 (most recent)
If you don't have the "latest" the general blanket statement of "update to the most recent" will probably be what you get from any customer support personnel you reach.
Personally, I haven't gone past 2014.0 yet, and probably won't for a while.
In my CC 2014.0, the OnMouseOver is the default, but when I click it in the Behavior Panel to choose other options, they're all there.

Behaviors: Open Browser Window

When I have a link with behaviors to "open browser window" I
do get the new browser window opening up at the desired dimentions
that I specified. The problem is the main page too opens up that
same URL. How do I prevent it from doing so?

Wait - he removed that (as recommended originally) in later
posts in the
thread. Or maybe he didn't.

Open Browser Window - Can't control Fx3 window size

http://pacificwindshield.com/auto_windshield_replacement.html
The Contact/Inquire button (upper right) opens a small form
using DW's Open
Browser Window behavior. I have set the window size to 400 X
340. It works
perfectly in IE6, but not in Fx3. There it opens to the
current default Fx
window size.
What do I need to change to make the form open at 400 X 340
in Fx3?
Thanks
Walt

Thanks. I'll upgrade to SP3, don't know why my auto update
didn't handle
that already.
I just checked and the window opens perfectly in Fx2.
Interesting.
Thanks again.
