Opening a new browser window when hyperlinking

How do you force a browser to open a new window when hyperlinking? Can a command be embedded to do this in the URL? I'm trying to create a hyperlink to my iCal calendar from a site I do not have hosted at .Mac. I would like for the page from which the hyperlink occurs to stay open.

Unfortunately, this capability appears not to be included in iWeb in the current version. It is possible, however to edit the URLs AFTER PUBLISHING in the HTML files that iWeb produces. I don't know if this is more trouble than it is worth to you, but you would simply need to add a {a href="URL" target="_blank"} command to the HTML.

Hi,
Even if i create different regions , it is not possible for me to place them between items.
But anyways, I created a separate button in the same region and it works fine.

How do I set the desired search enging when I open a new browsing window?

When I open a new browser window, I used to get the Bing search engine option but now only the Yahoo search engin is shown. How do I reset the system to show Bing when opening a new browser window? thanks.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you've got a custom timecode field somewhere in your production and/or asset metadata group(s), right? And I'm going to further guess that this timecode field has dashes in it like this --:--:--:--, right? If so, try this: Click the arrow next to the timecode field and adjust the timecode so that it has a number (it doesn't matter what the number is as long it's not dashes - "00:00:00:00" is fine). Then Save this asset, close it and then reopen it and see if the beeping madness has vanished. Then, to make this change permanent for all of your new assets, make sure to edit the default value of any custom timecode fields to put zeros (or some other numeric default value) into them when a new asset is generated. If the asset still beeps when you open it, check the other metadata groups in your set to see if there isn't another empty timecode field lurking in the shadows.

How can I open a new browser window!!! Very Challenging!!!

I have a form (name=MAIN) with a submit button (name=Button A). Button A opens a new browser window (name=SEARCH), via an HTML form target tag (<FORM TARGET=A>). Window SEARCH has multiple submit buttons (10-15). Each button has a different action which is handled by a servlet (form name and button name are passed to a servlet as a hidden field in the form to determine the action), which is setup to be an action handler. When a button in the SEARCH window is clicked the results are retrieved from an Oracle database and should be displayed in the text fields in window MAIN.
For example, some results may be displayed in window SEARCH (_self) and and other results may be required to be sent to window MAIN depending on the button clicked.
How can I setup window SEARCH so each button can have a different target window (some may be window MAIN or other windows)? Using a form tag for each button doesn't give desirable results. Is there a way to do this with JSP or some form of Java code?
A form tag can only have one target. Basically I have one form with multiple submit buttons. How can I get it to send each submit buttons results to a specific window?
Thanks.


<script language="JavaScript1.2">
function mysubmit(mytarget){
document.myform.target=mytarget;
document.myform.submit();
function validation(myform){
//validation stuff
return [true | false];
</script>
<form target='none' name='myform' action='myaction.jsp' method='post' [onsubmit='return validation(this)']>
<input type=button name='submit1' value='submit1' onclick='mysubmit("target1")'>
<input type=button name='submit2' value='submit2' onclick='mysubmit("target2")'>
<input type=button name='submit3' value='submit3' onclick='mysubmit("target3")'>
<input type=button name='submit4' value='submit4' onclick='mysubmit("target4")'>
</form>

Opening a new browser window in APEX

Hi.
I am trying to open a new browser window in APEX (v2.1) for a new Navigation Bar Entry.
What I did is the following:
1) Created the new Navigation Bar Entry
2) On the properties of this entry I put the Target Type: "URL"
and on the Target: javascript:window.open('f?p=&APP_ID.:63:&APP_SESSION.:::::' , 'Despre','scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=400,height=600');
when I click on my Navigation Bar Entry, the page 63 opens on the same window,NOT on a NEW browser window.
Can you please help ?

It seems that I found the answer.
I had to do the following:
javascript:(window.open('f?p=&APP_ID.:63:&APP_SESSION.:::::', 'Despre','Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=400,height=600')).focus();
and then logout and login back in the application and it worked.

Pdf links will not open in new browser window

I have created a pdf document in Acrobat 9 Pro that is password protected. You must enter the password to open it. In this document there are perhaps 15 links to other pdf documents. I set up each of the links to open in a new window. The links work as expected in Acrobat, each opening in a new window, however, when I posted the documents to the web, the links open in the same window as the original document. This would not be a big issue if the original document were not password protected, but each time the user clicks on a link, it takes him out of the original document. To get back to the original document requires re-entering the password. This is a major irritation with so many links.
I know that you can set Acrobat to display the documents in its own window rather than in the browser, but my users don't know that. Control clicking on a pdf link does not open it in a new window as it would with an HTML link. Is there a simple fix to this problem that does not involve user intervention?

Well, I came up with a solution, thanks to Ted Padova who offers a simple JavaScript solution on his blog at http://www.acrobatusers.com/blogs/tedpadova/opening-pdfs-new-browser-windows.
The solution is clearly laid out even for beginners, if you know how to create a link or button.
It seems to me that a prime objective of Adobe in developing Acrobat would be to have it behave the same way in free-standing mode and as a plug-in. In this case it does not, and obviously, it has not for the last forty-eleven years that Acrobat has been on the market. Maybe some day they will get around to a fix for this obvious problem. In the meantime, read Ted's blog and be happy we have guys like him who can solve these problems.

JavaScript for opening a new browser window.

Hi all,
Let me start by saying that I'm not JavaScript savvy at all.
I have two buttons on a slide and I want each to open a new browser window.
I Googled for a script and found this:
window.open ('URL')
I tried in my project and it worked fine but the browser window that my project was running in also changed.
I've attached a .gif image of what happens to my project window when either of the two buttons is clicked.
Can anyone help??

You can check the home page setting:
*Tools > Options > General > Startup: Home page
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/How+to+set+the+home+page
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox Profile Folder that store session data.
Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Open Containing Folder
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

How do I open a new browser window from Flash

I wish to open a new browser window from Flash and when the new window closes to return to the location from whence I started.
ThomasChen

The command to open a new window would be the "_blank" part of a command to link to a web page in the code below.
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.anothersite.com", "_blank"));
As far as the new window closing and getting back to where you were in the original window, I don't understand where that original window might have gone to... You should be wherever you last left it.

File Open Issues - document library pdf file to open in new browser window

Hi
I have a requirement to open the document library containing pdf file to open in new browser window. So far I have tried following steps but could not get it to work.
1. Changing Document library advance setting to open the document in browser (have tried others as well).
2. SharePoint web application setting changed as Permissive instead of Strict. Here the pdf file opens in browser but redirect from document library instead of new window(Also tried adding Target=”_blank” and no change).
3. Executed the powershell script to adding MIME type to see if it works but no change.
$webApp = Get-SPWebApplication http://SharePointSite
If ($webApp.AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes -notcontains "application/pdf")
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "Adding PDF MIME Type..."
$webApp.AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes.Add("application/pdf")
$webApp.Update()
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "Added and saved."
Else
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "PDF MIME type is already added."
4. Open the Doc library and modified ALLItems.aspx to add Target= “_blank”
5. I have already tried solutions suggested in the link:

Appreciate if there are any working solution from any of you. Many Thanks

I found a solution which works only in the development. No idea when I compared, Browser MIME type is enabled, STRICT browser type is configured for web application. on the document library advance setting, default to open in new browser. Both configurations
are identical but I am able to open pdf file in new window in my developing using jquery script
http://blog.ithinksharepoint.com/2011/02/21/open-pdf-files-from-a-document-library-in-a-new-window/ but the same does not work on production server :(
Any help experts?

Unable to Open a New Browser Window

I have a couple users who are having trouble logging in to Discoverer on new PCs. They are using Internet Explorerer 8. They are able to get to the login screen, but when the hit connect (or Go) they get an error: "Unable to open a new browser window. Ensure that you do not have popup windows disabled for this site."
Obviously the first thing I had them do was turn off the popup blocker all together. But they still get the error (even after they restart their PC). Other than that, is there something I am missing in how they need to configure IE8? I'm personally used to using IE6 at work and don't know much about configuration setting for IE8.
Thanks!

Hi,
Exactly not sure,see if there are any pop-up blockers still exists,if so try turning pop-up on and off and check it.One more thing what java plug in are you using?? May be it perisists due to java also.
Best Wishes,
Kranthi.

Firefox 3.6.8 Opening unrequested new browser windows

I have a new Gateway laptop with Intel Core i5 2.26 Ghz and4 gb ram. I downloaded Firefox immediately, my browser of choice. However, what I've discovered is that almost immediately Firefox would open an unrequested new browser window when I click a link. E.G. I was on Yahoo today and clicked a link to daniweb after doing a search. (I was testing the theory.) Almost immediately there was a very quick flash of my browser window, almost as if something was opened and immediately minimized. After that daniweb loaded. If I go to the start bar and hover over the Firefox (Using Win 7) icon, it shows only 1 open browser window. About 30 seconds later though, the new browser window pops up in front of the Daniweb window. This time, the new window contained the following URL... http://www.yellowpages.com/raleigh-nc/programming?From=MRCH2 As you can see, it basically did a yellowpages search for programming in my area, presumably because I am going to an IT site. And now, if I hover over the Firefox icon on the start bar it shows to open browser windows.
The window which pops up unrequested is frequently yellowpages although sometimes it's a news site with a search for whatever I had clicked on. Occasionally it has been a "you have won site". I have pop-up blocker turned on and have tested through various test sites that pop-up blocker is in fact working. In some ways, this is more insidious because it's not a pop-up like we think of a pop-up, rather it's an entire browser window.
I have googled and googled trying to find a solution and thus far no one else has posted anything similar to this problem.

RoboHelp HTML 8 - avoid opening a new browser window

How do I avoid opening a new browser window every time I call the context sensitive help from within Java?
I am using Robohelp HTML 8 with IE8
I am calling it this way from Java:
RoboHelp_CSH.RH_ShowHelp(0, "C:\\\RoboHelp\\!SSL!\\WebHelp\\XHelp_File.htm", RoboHelp_CSH.HH_HELP_CONTEXT, 2);

Hi,
Welcome to Adobe forum,
As I understand you are trying to open the hyperlinks in a new window instead of a tab.
Well it is possible in Robohelp 8 HTML
Here are the steps which you need to follow.
1. Select the text Right click on it and then select Insert Hyperlink.
Once you click on the Insert Hyperlink another Popup window will appear in your screen.
You need to check this screenshot and select the appropriate option.
Try and generate the Webhelp and see if that helps you,
I hope that will resolve your issue.Please reply if that resolves your issue.
Thanks

How to open a new browser window without toolbar, location, and menu bars from AIR?

I have the following problem in my Flex+AIR application. I need to embed an ActiveX component that has JavaScript API inside my application. I tried to embed it inside <mx:HTML> component but unfortunately, AIR doesnot support plug-ins or ActiveX controls. So I've decided to open it in a new browser window. I tried navigateToURL(...) method but it has two problems - it is opening a new tab in the existing browser window and there is no way for me to configure the new browser window appearance, like removing toolbar, menu bar, location bar, etc. Then I tried to open a new window from JavaScript running inside <mx:HTML> component using window.open(...) API but it doesn't open a new window at all.
Is there any way for me to open a new browser window without toolbar, location bar, etc. (which will run ActiveX control, so it cannot be AIR window) from inside AIR?
Best regards,
Arkady.

Is it possible to open a new browser window using JSP?a JSP page is also an HTML page, this is client side stuff, you can do it with JavaScript.
