I want to eliminate or control popup windows that have no relevance and start with "open link in new window" . How do I control or eliminate. It is a nuisance.
When I am searching the web and click on an item, I get a pop up window that contains 6 choices beginning with "open link in new window". Most of the time this a nuisance and I want to get rid of it, but it follows me all over the page and keeps popping up when I click on the same item again. If I don't want to use it, how can I make sure it doesn't reappear?
Also, another question. Firefox keeps asking me to upgrade to Firefox 3.6.19, but when I try, it will download. What gives? I have a Mac Pro with OSX version 10.6.7.
Thanks,
Lloyd Frohreich

It sounds that you are opening the right-click context menu, maybe by pressing the mouse button for too long.

Open Link in New Window Option Not Working in Top Link Bar
Hello,
We have a 'Popular Links' section in our Top Link Bar for our intranet site that contains a list of frequently used links. Since most of these links navigate to sites outside of SharePoint, we would like these to open in a new tab or window when clicked.
I've enabled the 'Open Link in New Window' option under Site Navigation Settings for each link, however when a user clicks the links that have had this option enabled the content is still loaded in the current tab.
Is this the correct set of steps to enable this content, or is there a better way to accomplish this that actually works?

the user jay_ff shows how to do it using the Menu Editor Add-on
1. Install the Menu Editor add-on from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ .
2. After the installation, go to Firefox> add-ons (or simply use Ctrl+Shift+A)
3. Go to the Menu Editor "Options"
4. In the "Main context menu," simply grab the "Open link in New Tab" and place it below the "Open Link in New Window"
5. and Voila! You may also change other menu options if you want to!
I tried jay_ff method first and found that indeed changing the Main Context Menu did cause the hotlink context menu to change as well. -
ADF in Jdev 10.1.3.2 - Wrong Page Opens When "Open Link in New Window" Used
We are former Oracle Forms/Reports developers and Struts developers in the early stages of a new project using ADF in JDeveloper 10.1.3.2. We are all new to this development environment (though not new to Java), so apologies in advance if this is trivial.
Our early work is based on samples extracted from Oracle's ADF Tutorial for Forms/4GL developers and is pretty simple at this stage. We have done little more than create a page layout and implemented skeletons of each page. As long as we click a link with the left mouse button, we can navigate from page to page as expected, no problem.
The strangeness starts when we right click a link, and select Open in New Window. For example:
(Note, all of this is taking place in our development environment: Jdeveloper running on our personal PCs / laptops, we have not even tried to deploy to an application server yet):
1. Open page 1.
2. Error 1: Right click button or tab to page 2, select Open in New Window. Page 1, not page 2, will open in the new window.
3. Close the new window so that the original page 1 is displayed.
4. Left click a link to navigate to page 2. Page 2 is display as expected.
5. On page 2, left click link back to page 1 (NOT the browser Back button). Page 1 is displayed as expected.
6. Error 2: Right click a link to page 3, select Open in New Window. Page 2, not page 3 will open in the new window.
7. Close the window containing Page 2. Left-click the link for page 3 and it will open as expected.
8. On page 3, left click a link back to page 1 (NOT the browser Back button). Page 1 is displayed as expected.
9. Now right-click the same link to page 3 as in step 6 and select open in new window and page 3 will display as expected.
The logs mention "Reusing a cached session application module instance" and I think this is where our trouble is. I considered turning this caching off (if possible) to see if it clears up the problem, but (a) I don't see where to do that and (b) it seems like we would want to use any caching features once we go to production.
I suspect we have some minor configuration error somewhere as it seems unlikely that ADF applications would all come with a "No opening in new windows allowed" warning. Or, maybe we are just missing the boat on why this shouldn't work. Either way, any useful guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks!Pravin
We dont get number datatype if you have SQL92 selected as SQL Flavour. So i dont think this would help. SQL TYPE Map is JAVA basically in my project. Do you want me to import some of oracle.jbo.domains specifically or something else you want me to do

Firefox4 "Open Link in new Tab" and "Open Link in new Windows" switch back to the old FF3 version
Am I the only one finding this annoying?
I want to know how to switch "open link in new tab" and "open link in new Windows" like it was in Firefox 3.
If you mousehover on a link and press the right mousebutton.Sara, I started having the same problem yesterday. In my case I was able to remedy it by disabling FasterFox 3.9.81. If you don't have that installed, I would recommend turning off your extensions (one by one), restarting firefox, and testing until you find the offender. Hope that helps!

I do not like the order of the context menu changes in Safari 6.1. I have become accustomed to using "Open Link In New Window" first in the context list, rather than the new "Open Link In New Tab". I do not wish to use Tabs. How may I remove this?
Well, I solved it just after I posted this. I opened up the Safari Preferences, then went to the TABS section, and set "Open pages in tabs instead of windows: to NEVER", and unchecked "⌘-click opens a link in a new tab". That set it back to open in new windows.
Tabs work if I am making quick tabs to refer to something. Horrible if I want to compare two websites side by side. So, by disabling the auto TAB function, I'm back to the way I prefer my browser to work, rather than the way something thinks I ought to use it.
Don't care about having all my browsers behavior the same. If I wanted that, I would have run those browsers. -
Using firefox 14.0.1. Loading a link using right-click and "Open Link In New Window", results in new window opening but address bar does not show URL. However, if I right click on a link and select "Open Link In New Tab", the Tab shows URL in address bar. So it's working when it's a New Tab but not a New Window.
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.

Open link in new window? Anyone figured it out yet?
I have tried looking over some past topics concerning this issue, but only found a few and it appears that it wasn't figure out on how to open a link in a new window. I started creating a web portfolio for me, and I have some videos I wish to open in a new window instead of just having them on one of the pages. I've tried viewing the page source in firefox, copied the code, and inserted the target="_blank" code after the hyperlink, but after I do that it messes up the code somehow and when i try to open the html page in firefox all I see is the code. Has anyone else figured this out?
Well, I found a website that showed me how to do it... If anyone else needs it then here it is: http://www.rowan-cottage.co.uk/Site/Target_Blank.html#Summary

Open Link in New Window not working
Using iWeb 08, I create a new entry on my blog/news page, highlight the text, go to the link tab, paste in a website, make sure 'Link to an External Page' is selected, and put a tick in 'Open Link in New Window'.
When published it opens in the same window. Is this a bug or how can I correct it?Try redoing your link and, this time, deselect the link on the page and look at the inspector window to see if anything has changed. Then check the 'make hyperlinks active box". Your linked page should open in the browser when you click the link on the iWeb page.
If this is OK do a "publish all to .Mac" and empty your browser cache before visiting your site. -
"Open Link in new window" not working with OBIEE 10.1.3.4
Hi All,

In OBIEE Go to Settings > Administration > Managae Interactive Dashboard > Select any Dashboard > Right Click on Properties tab > Open Link in New window:
This throws an error saying "javascript:void(null)".
In Siebel Analytisc the above functionality used to work.
Does anyone knows thereason behind this?
Regards,
ApoorvGet Firebug and inspect the element. You'll see that it actually is this:
onclick="javascript:saw.runThis
URL('saw.dll?PortalProperties&_scid=To2OnvCVXpY&PortalPath=/shared/paint/_portal/PoC\x2520FINS&Done=ManagePortals\x2526Done\x253dAdmin');return false" href="javascript:void(null)" FF doesn't even give you the "Open..." options and all IE versions as of 7 show them but actually don't do anything when you invoke them.

Open link in new window will not work
I am running Firefox 3.6.12 on Windows XP and have never had a problem until just recently. If I right click and select "open link in new window", a new window will open, but it is blank. This started about a week ago while playing Pogo...the game rooms will not load because they open in a new window. Now I am noticing that it is with everything, not just Pogo.
I have tried checking and unchecking the "block pop-ups" option and the new windows will not load either way.
Any help would be appreciated!!!
Thanks!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).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]] -
It seems after a while, now Firefox 4.0.1 has a issue with the "Open Link In New Window" option fails to load the web page. It opens the new window, but does not load the web page that you click on. Instead it opens a new window with a blank tab.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Open Link in New Window is not working...
When I right click on a link and select '''Open Link in New Window''', a new window opens but there is nothing on it.
The same thing happens when I right click on a Tab and select '''Move to New Window'''.

Open Link in New Window creates an invisible window (visible after restarting).
When I use the right mouse button menu to Open Link in New Window from a web page it creates an invisible window. That is, I cannot see the window but it is listed in the Firefox Window menu. This newly opened window cannot be selected either by mouse or from the Window menu. However, if I quit and restart Firefox the new window appears as 0 pixels wide (i.e., a 1 pixel wide vertical line) and I can select it (by mouse or Window menu) and zoom it from the Window menu. After zooming I can operate on the window normally.
Get Firebug and inspect the element. You'll see that it actually is this:
onclick="javascript:saw.runThis
URL('saw.dll?PortalProperties&_scid=To2OnvCVXpY&PortalPath=/shared/paint/_portal/PoC\x2520FINS&Done=ManagePortals\x2526Done\x253dAdmin');return false" href="javascript:void(null)" FF doesn't even give you the "Open..." options and all IE versions as of 7 show them but actually don't do anything when you invoke them.

Open link in new window inSafari 5.0.1
Without doing anything I know of I no longer have "OPEN LINK IN NEW TAB" when I right click over a link. Also when I right click "OPEN LINK IN NEW WINDOW" I get a blank TAB that says "UNTITLED".
Thanks for any helpHI,
From your Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Empty Cache.
Relaunch Safari.
If that didn't make a difference, troubleshoot the Safari .plist file.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. If Tabs work as they should, them move the .plist file to the Trash.
