Launched links are not opening new window?

OK- The web links inserted as click boxes work. The problem
is that they open in the same window and the user will get lost and
re-launch to get back into the course/project.
The browser window launched by our LMS is different and does
not have the typical navigation/menu features that I am used to...
Any suggestions to correct this?

Welcome to our community, andejb
In addition to what Lee offered, I'll add the following:
When you edit the object you are linking from and click that
button with the down arrow to choose New, click it again after you
have done this. You will see an option labeled "Continue Playing
Project". Most folks like to click this option to turn it off.
Otherwise, clicking the link will release the pause from your
project and it will continue playing while your user is viewing the
URL you linked them to. Turning the option off keeps the movie at
its position until they are ready to proceed.
Cheers... Rick

Firefox 30 will not open new windows maximized

I use Firefox on 2 machines, one at home and one at work. I updated both to Firefox 30.
My home machine, with Windows 7 opens new windows maximized.
My work machine, however, will not open new windows maximized. It will only open them at the last remembered window size. I have tried deleting localstore.rdf and this does not solve the issue.
The window will open maximized on Firefox 28 on the same machine.

'''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]''''' {web link}
While you are in safe mode;
Press the '''<Alt>''' or '''<F10>''' key to bring up the tool bar.
Followed by;
Windows; '''Tools > Options'''
Linux; '''Edit > Preferences'''
Mac; ''application name'' '''> Preferences'''
Then '''Advanced > General.'''
Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.
Poke around safe web sites and see if there is still a problem. Then restart.

The firefox will not open new windows

My firefox will not open new windows. It opens new tabs. The problem is in the windows.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Creating a profile":

*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If the new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Just downloaded Firefox 6.0 and have restarted 4 plus times, but it continues to hang while launching. I cannot open new windows, change any settings, or do anything but Force Quit. I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.8. How do I get past this hang?

Long story short: Simply get CC for teams. At 500 bucks a year it's a steal and those 5 licenses in the base package (or was it 10 even?) cover all your computers, at least the 3 ones you mentioned. For system requirements refer to the individual product pages.

Mac user OS 10.6.8 Firefox 6.0.2. Click the Firefox icon in dock, program does not open new window. Type cmd+N to open new window, cmd+T to open new tab or cmd+L to enter URL, nothing happens. What causes this, and what can be done?

It's strange. The problem apparently resolved itself after I ran TechTool on it. When I clicked on Firefox last night, I had no problem opening a window. Thanks for your help. (As to your previous post, the focus was on Firefox and neither the speed keys nor the menu bar would open a window or tab of allow me to enter a URL to open a window. Strange!)

I can not open new windows

When I´m on the internet I can not open new windows, not by ¨file new windows ¨ or by ctrl N. New tabs work but no new windows. It worls well with all other browsers.

TOC Links won't open New Window, Whole Page

RoboHelp HTML 11, Internet Explorer 11. Multiscreen HTML5 layout.
I'm trying to experiment with the different ways of opening links: New Window, Whole Page, Same Frame, etc.
Yesterday the different variations worked the way they should, but today every link in the TOC opens as if set to "Default (none)".
As for Links on topic pages, "New Window" opens a new tab, and "Whole Page" seems to go to Default (including the sidebar, which I gather should not be there).
Any ideas?
-- Shawn

Hi,
Responsive or Multiscreen?
For the HTML5 version, the frame options for links won't work.
New Window should open a new tab. That is as expected.
The rest will work like a regular link.
The frame options really are just for WebHelp only. And only the new window and whole page make any sense.
Kind regards,
Willam

Firefox will not open new window, Why?

I have Vista home base premium operating system. I am a regular user of Mozilla firefox after had lots of positive feedback as one of the best browser. I had no problem for a good while, until recently I found out my add-on firebug stop working. Then I noticed that firefox stopped working properly, ie; it will no more open new window/s. One window will open after rebooting and i can have a number of tabs opened. When I right click on a web link and take the option to open it in a new window it will not open. When I take the option to open it in a new tab then that would be ok. When I go to the toolbar and click on File and chose option "open new window" again it will not open. I have on many accasions completely installed Firefox using the IObit software and use the advance system care to clean the registry and completely scan the system. I then reinstalled the latest version of Mozilla Firefox. I did that twice. The problem is still there. About the ad-on firebug, when I go to the toolbar and click on Tools, i can see Firebug with the extended arrow, but when I click on the arrow to the extended options, it simply would not respond.
There must something going on, please help.

Firefox will not open new window for websites that require it

I am running Firefox 3.6.16 on Windows XP.
For some time now, certain websites will just not work - for instance, when I use Mapquest, it used to open the new window when I clicked on "print" - that no longer happens.
Today, I was trying to use the eScrip online mall, and when I clicked on the store name, it did not open a new window - this was working fine back in December when I was doing my online shopping.
My suspicion is the new version has some kind of problem. does anyone have a solution for this?
Thanks!

I use MapQuest a lot but haven't used the PRINT option for a while. I just tried it and you are right, the PRINT does not open any window or even work. But if you change it to the NEW MapQuest, the PRINT function will work. I guess MapQuest has disabled the PRINT option in their CLASSIC version. Maybe they are trying to encourage users to use their NEW version instead.
If you still want to use the CLASSIC version, you can always copy the map and paste it onto a Image Editor program and print from there.

Link to page, not open new window

Hi there
in Edge, how do I code to link to a page, without opening a new browser window (but also without using _self which caused problems by trying to open the link in the animation window).
Thanks
Simon

So ... just to clarify ... _blank would open a new window, not what I want!

Skype chat links are not opening in firefox on Mac

Hello,
I have Mac book pro running OS 10.6.8 "Snow Leopard", skype 6.15 (335), and my default browser is Firefox version 32.0.3.
Recently I experience a problem when someone send me a link it dose not open in Firefox, actually it switch to Firefox when I click on the link on Skype chat but no new tab is opening. I have to right click the link and then choose "Open URL" to get the link.
If you have any suggestions please help.
Thank You

I had a similar problem on a website when a particular page was writing on the screen. This particular page later discovered contained a code that disabled anything from being clicked on or selected etc. It was as though there was an invisible windows in front (literally there was). I removed the code and everything went back to normal.
Nothing wrong with Firfefox, Windows or Ubuntu. Incidentally, windows Internet Explorer v8 didn't have a problem since it was not up to date to handle the new CSS code. :)
Here's the code that prevented anything on the page from being clicked:
<div id="FirebombOverlay" style="display: block; position: fixed; left: 0pt; top: 0pt; width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0pt; padding: 0pt; outline: medium none; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; z-index: 999999;"></div>
Most likely it got injected there without the user being aware of it. This was injected back in march 2012 so since then the browsers did not pick it up and just plainly ignored the code until new browser updates got installed to handle the css code.
I have no idea how it got there but my best guess would be a silent plugin of which I have no idea which one.
The above code is some form of style sheet code that puts a layer in front of the page. It would be put into good use in stopping people from selected the page contents or to do damage to there site. You can perhaps put it over images from stopping people downloading using browser right click save image command.
I hope this would help those who are having the problem.

My firefox browser will not open new windows in tabs, but it will do so when I am in safe mode, what should I be looking for?

I want to view new pages in tabs. I thought I had clicked the appropriate option to do so but it continually opens in a new window instead. I have restarted my browser in safe mode and the tabs are there and work normally. What gives? I am not sure how to narrow down the problem here.

Hello rossqo, '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.
''To exit Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help others with the same problem.
thank you
