Help file open in a new window

I've made an help-file for my apllication, and now i want it to open in a new web-page. I've changed the following line in standardPagelayout.uit:
<!-- set up global buttons -->
<globalButtons>
<globalButtonBar>
<contents>
<globalButton text="Home" source="/images/home.gif"
data:destination="controller@jheadstart:sessionData"/>
<globalButton text="Logout" source="/images/logout.gif">
<boundAttribute name="destination">
<concat>
<dataObject select="controller" source="jheadstart:sessionData"/>
?logoff=
<dataObject select="controller" source="jheadstart:sessionData"/>
</concat>
</boundAttribute>
</globalButton>
<globalButton text="Help" source="/images/help.gif" destination="Help.htm"/> </contents>
</globalButtonBar>
</globalButtons>
Is there some option, like a target-option i can use to open the file in a new window?

it is a quick fix to do this... I have this button in one of my uit's.
<globalButton text="Help"
source="/images/help.gif"
destination="html/MyHelpFile.html"
targetFrame="helpWindow"/>

  • PDF to b opened in a new window or in a download frame

    when using hyperlink in iweb pdf file is opening in the same window. how can i make so the file is opening either in a new window or in a "save as" frame?

    If you upload the pdf file to the server manually and then link to it via the Inspector/Hyperlink pane with the Link to option An External Page (with the checkbox to open in a new window selected) you can have the pdf file open in a new window where it can be viewed or downloaded.
    Click to view full size
    This demo page has an example of that: LinkTestPage . Look for the text box with the following text: This text box is linked to view/download a pdf file". Click on it to view. In the view window there is a download button (second from left).

  • Links to files doesn't open in a new window

    I've noticed that links (that refers to a specific file) created in Adobe Indesign doesn't open in a new window like the links that refers to a website when I autoconverts it in Acrobat Pro X.
    Example:
    LINK1: http://www.acrobat.com/testfile.pdf <--- does not open in a new window when clicked
    LINK2: http://www.acrobat.com/testfolder <--- opens in a new window when clicked
    Are there any way to fix this?
    Will the same problem occur if I create the links in Acrobat instead?
    I'm asking this because I don't want the form to disappear when the links are clicked.
    Best,
    Mikey

    Firefox should divert the new window to a new tab when you check this box in Google's Search Settings:
    "Open search results in a new browser window"
    I can't think of any reason for Firefox to divert a new window back into ''the same tab''.
    In case one of your add-ons is the culprit, could you try Firefox's Safe Mode?
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, restart Firefox using Help>Restart with Add-ons Disabled. Don't check any of the boxes in the [https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode Safe Mode] dialog, just Continue in Safe Mode.
    Does it make any difference?

  • Links open with a new window help

    I'm trying make my links on my website open with a new window. This way the customer won't have to find his way back to the site. I found this thread-http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=339861
    It looks to be pretty helpful but I can't figure out how to edit the html file after I published it. Any suggestions?

    Welcome ny854
    You might want to try using an html editor like Taco HTML Edit to open html files, I find it makes them much easier to read.
    Your file is viewing as a web page because Safari is probably set as the default app to open html files.
    What you need to do is press the "ctrl" key when you click on the file in your iDisk, this will give you a menu, choose Open With, then choose the app that you want to open the file with from the list that you see. If you use text edit (launch the app, go to Text Edit > Preferences > Click Open and Save > Check “Ignore rich text commands in html files”).

  • Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window

    Tabs only open in a new window. Ctl T opens a new window NOT a new tab help-last update this problem started 2 days ago. How do I set FF back to open tabs in 1 window?
    There is no plus sign and going into optins and changing settings has not worked. I have uninstall FF and reinstall-keeping my personalization-and that was no help.
    Right clicking on FF Icon to open a new tab, or going up to FF drop down tab and clicking on new tab both do not work.
    Help everything opens a new window not a new tab. there seems to be no way to reset this or to chose a different optin. I just downloaded new tabs at end addon and it didn't do a thing.

    as a first troubleshooting step - does it work like normally when you open & run firefox in [[Safe Mode|safemode]] by pressing the shift key while you open firefox (all other instances have to be closed before)...

  • Every time I try to open a new tab, it open a whole new window and i am ending up with 6 or 7 unmanagable things, please help.

    every time I try to open a new tab, it opens a whole new window, which makes what I use firefox for completely unmanagable. I also updated it the other day and all the changes I made are gone!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == this evening

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • I keep getting an error window about java since I updated to firefox 8, my tabs will flash, tabs will close and open in a new window, everything stops working, firefox is non responsive, please help

    Since I upgraded to firefox 8, I get this error window that pops up says something about java. My tabs flicker or flash, the tabs will close and open in a new window then everything stops. Then firefox does not respond. When I get this error message, I have to close all tabs wait a few seconds then open it back up it will work for a little while and then do the same thing. I have disabled plug-ins that I do not use, I have cleared my cache and cookies, I am not happy at all with this new version. I waited a while before updating. The first time I was going to update, firefox would not let me keep my anti-virus plug-in. PLEASE HELP

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

  • Open page in new window when click on HELP TAB

    Hi
    I have a number of tabs which work on my pages. My very last Tab is a Help Tab.
    What I'm trying to achieve is that when a person clicks on the Help tab, the page should open in a new window.
    The rest of the tabs should function normally, ie just switch pages in the same window.

    </blockquote>
    Fred,
    Thanks so much for the reply. Amy way you could elaborate on the "known issue" aspect? Is there another thread I missed? Some sort of Knowledge base article? also, I'm not sure why you linked to the page you did. FF is installed on all my machines and I can of course download the latest version every couple of weeks and push it to all my lab iMacs using ARD, so I'm confused as to why you linnked me to FF's installer page - is there something I can do with the installer that will alow auto-updates that I'm missing/not aware of?
    Again, thanks for the heads-up and any further elaboration on either further info on the issue or how I might use the installer to auto-update all my machines will be appreciated.

  • JSF app - open report in new Window - via JSP?

    I have been reading through this forum but no one has done quite what I am trying so I thought I'd post my own version of this problem.
    The web app I'm working on is basically a report generator. Data is formatted via XSLT to .html files - that part works great. The problem is getting the app to open this new HTML file in a new window. I want to get this working with little or no JavaScript.
    startReport.jsp (a JSF file) is the form that validates the user input. The sole h:commandButton (I do NOT want a link) works fine sending the form and JSF returns its errors or mine (if the criteria results in nothing) as it should; the action method returns "failure" so the page stays the same.
    But when the action method returns "success" the JSF navigation-rule is setup to route to showReportFile.jsp (which is NOT a JSF file). This JSP is very simple:
    <%@ page import="java.io.File" %>
    <%@ page import="java.io.PrintWriter" %>
    <%@ page import="java.io.FileReader" %>
    <%@ page import="com.logipath.gict.cts.reporting.client.ReportClient" %>
    <%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1" %>
    <jsp:useBean id="reportClient" scope="session" class="com.logipath.gict.cts.reporting.client.ReportClient" />
    <%
    String fileName = reportClient.getReportOutputFile();
    PrintWriter writer = response.getWriter();
    char[] buffer = new char[1024];
    FileReader reader = new FileReader(fileName);
    int numRead = reader.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
    while ( numRead != -1 ) {
         writer.write(buffer, 0, numRead);
         numRead = reader.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
    reader.close();
    writer.close();
    File file = new File(fileName);
    file.delete();
    %>This works believe it or not. If I put the target="_blank" on the form tag in the startReport.jsp it even opens in a new window. Great. But with that attribute on the form element, if the page comes back in error - it shows up in a new window (as it is apt to do given the attiribute).
    Ok, the h:commandButton tag's target attribute is ignored. Fine. There has to be a way to do this but I just cannot figure it out and I'm no JSP expert.
    What I think will work is this. Since my report beans create HTML files, I've created a session bean called "currentReportBean" which holds a single attribute - the name of the HTML file to display. (This is how the JSP above works.)
    What I need to know now *(this is the question part)* is how can I flush the render response of my JSF life cycle, trigger the opening of this JSP in a new window, the restart the JSF life cycle at the begining so the "parent" page repaints normally? The JSP isn't part of the JSF page flow so I there's no "going back" or "refresh" to worry about. I would like to take the showReportFile.jsp file out of the navigation files altogether.
    I know this topic has been worked on at length, but not quite this way. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    No, the JSP resets the bean value after showing the file.My mistake; it wasn't the reload scenario that is an issue. It is when the user goes back and forth in history that this can be a problem.
    >
    But now I'm confused. JS cannot access server-based session values. How is it going to know to open the page? A cookie?Write the value to a JS variable when you render the page.

  • Open Hyperlink in New Window

    I have created an interactive pdf in Indesign.  It contains hyperlinks to destinations in a second pdf file.  I would like the hyperlinks to open the second pdf file in a new window.  Is there a way to do this either in Indesign or Adobe Professional?
    I see that it is possible in Acrobat if the docements were just to files but I am using them on a web server.
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi George -
    Thanks for your reply.  I would be happy if it would open in either a new browser window or a new Acrobat/Reader window.  The first file is a large file and the links are to a suppporting much smaller file.  I would like the first file to stay open so that it doesn't have to keep reloading and so that the user doesn't have to use the "back" button.  (My guess is that that the user is going to close the window after clicking the link, expecting that it would open in a new window,  and get very frustrated reopening the first file)
    What type of links have you set up, exactly (web link, open file, go to page in another PDF, etc.)?
    I created the links while the file was still in InDesign - they are hyperlinks to a URL -  and the URL  is a destination in another pdf file.
    The final product - both documents - will be posted on a web server.
    Before posting the files to the web I was successful in setting up the links to open in a new window (go to a destination in another file).  But once placed on the server this no longer works.
    Thank you again,
    Denise

  • I can not open one more new window of FF by double-clicking on FF icon

    I can open only 1 browser window FF
    I want to open another.
    - I can open by selecting NEW WINDOW from the file menu. It's normal.
    - But I can't open by double-clicking on FF icon. The message happens in this case: "Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process, or restart your system."
    Before double-clicking on FF, I checked processs at Task Manager and just one process "firefox.exe" is running.
    I try many ways to troubleshoot this problem such as:
    - install FF again
    - run safe mode
    - Update all add-on
    - add new profile in Profile manager and run with new one
    - I follow the anwser of post: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/770203
    But can't fix this problem.
    I'm looking forward to your earliest reply
    Thank so much

    There is the Free  iTube Grabber which can capture almost any audio and/or video stream (it says here) but only works with Intel Macs.
    http://itube-grabber.en.softonic.com/mac
    Firefox Download Helper is also supposed to work, you have to be logged into YouTube first.
    There is also iTubeX which allows you to download videos (Flash, HTML5 and others), .mp3 and .swf files from almost every website as easily as possible:
    http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/27604/itubex
    Lastly: How to download Flash videos and play them in Quicktime using Perian is explained here:
    http://perian.org/#watch
    It's the video at the bottom of the page.
    Last but not least (as some of the above may not work with Snow Leopard or Lion) there is the 'pwn trick':
    For example, the full youtube site for your movie is:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bC2XIGMI ... e=youtu.be
    As soon as the movie starts, pause it and add 'pwn' in front of the youtube part of the url so it looks like this:
    http://www.pwnyoutube.com/watch?v=bC2XI ... e=youtu.be
    Hit Return and then follow the instructions.

  • How To Make Links In A .PDF Open In A New Window

    Hello,
    I am using Acrobat Pro 10 to create a fillable employment application. At the top of the main application, I want people to be able to click and be redirected to another .PDF file I have hosted on my site that they will need to fill out in addition. So, I have used the link tool, but this closes the main pdf application and opens up the new pdf in its place. This is very problematic, because it clears out all of their data in the previous main application. So, I need the link to open in a new window and not in the same one as the original form. Is this possible?
    I have tried using the Java work around explained in this article: http://mythinkpond.wordpress.com/2009/11/04/opening-a-link-in-a-pdf-document-in-a-new-wind ow/
    However, when I do this, and upload it to my site the link doesn't do anything. When you click above the word where the link should be, it doesn't show the finger pointer and doesn't do anything when clicked.
    Any ideas? I greatly appreciate any help...

    That makes sense. So I guess it looks like I have 2 options.
    1. Put the JS short code in and have it open the link in a new window if the user opens it in adobe. If a google chrome user opens it in the default viewer, they wont be able to use the link at all.
    2. Leave the link how it is, and it will be usable in both viewers, but will not open it in a new window.
    I am sureprised that opening the link in a new window isn't just an option in Acrobat Pro. I wouldn't think you'd have to make a workaround like this.
    Is there an alternative way to have a page link on the form so that people can go to another .pdf whil keeping the main one open?
