Universal Worklist items open in new window instead of existing frame

After our recent upgrade we noticed that workitems in Universal Worklist open in new window instead of existing frame. Do you know if there is a system or universal setting to make all the workitems open in existing frame? I know we can change the settings for parameters launchInNewWindow and openInNewWindow to "no" in XML files to fix this. However, my concern is that I would need to do this for each and every task we use. (still doable but wondering if there is simpler solution)
Example:
 <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS12300097.SAP_R3_CUSTOM_DEV" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchWebDynPro" executionMode="default">
 <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_R3_CUSTOM_DEV" externalType="TS12300097" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
 <Actions>
 <Action name="launchWebDynPro" groupAction="" handler="SAPWebDynproLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
 <Properties>
 <Property name="WebDynproApplication" value="LeaveRequestApprover"/>
 <Property name="WebDynproDeployableObject" value="sap.com/ess~lea"/>
 <Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
 <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
 <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
 </Properties>
 <Descriptions default=""/>
 </Action>
 </Actions>
 </ItemType>

We downloaded uwl.standard.xml from UWL admin. Made a copy and renamed file. Changed all "launchInNewWindow" from "yes" to "no". Uploaded new file in UWL admin. Re-registered systems, cleared cache. Not sure what exact line changed the behavior but the workitems no longer open in new window.
We are still experimenting with file in our sandbox environment.

Universal worklist task open in new window

Hello
We have an ESS implementation in portal.
In worklist when user clicks on any line item, a task gets triggered. Now this task gets opened in new window which is a standard functionality.
Below is XML which retrieves view for this clicked task,
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS90000018.SAP_R3" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchWebDynPro" executionMode="default">
 <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_R3" externalType="TS90000018" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
 <Actions>
 <Action name="launchWebDynPro" groupAction="" handler="SAPWebDynproLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
 <Properties>
 <Property name="WebDynproApplication" value="AllMyTrips"/>
 <Property name="WebDynproDeployableObject" value="sap.com/ess~tra"/>
 <Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
 <Property name="DynamicParameter" value="wi_id=${item.externalId}"/>
 <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
 <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
 </Properties>
 <Descriptions default=""/>
 </Action>
 </Actions>
 </ItemType>
But in new window we are not able to see any portal navigation available.
Is there any way that I can get this navigation panel in new window as well.

You can call also pages using the IViewLauncher.
 <Action name="launchWebDynPro" groupAction="" handler="IViewLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
 <Properties>
 <Property name="iview" value="ROLES://portal_content/Fresenius/kabi_nl/Iviews/ESS/Zeitmanagement/com.fresenius.Abwesenheitsmitteilung"/>
 <Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
 <Property name="DynamicParameter" value="wi_id=${item.externalId}"/>
 <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
 <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
 </Properties>
But why would you want to have the navigation too in a new window ?
That would confuse me as a user to have 2 navigations in 2 windows.
The problem with UWL in general (using a popup) is that after you are finished in the popup,
the task is still there. I get lots of complaints; waiting for EhP3 or 7.3. There should be a instant refresh UWL feature.....

Yahoo Search Links Opening in New Windows Instead of Existing Window

This literally happened withn the last hour. I've done some Yahoo searches, and when I click the link, instead of opening it in the existing window like it always does, it opens the links in new windows.
Is this something I did inadvertendly? How can I fix this? I don't want to have to right click to open in a new tab in the same window.

If i open a new window instead of a new tab, in the new window does not appear the menu tab

i want to open new windows instead of tabs and in the new window should appear the menu tab and scrolling up and down, but now with the new version the menu tab does not appear and i cannot scroll up and down.

Do you mean opening a window via the File menu (File > New Window) or do you always want to open links that you click on web pages in a new window?

Links open in new windows instead of tabs.

When browsing the internet, if I'm using a browsing session from a previous day, when I select to open a new link as a new tab, it will open in a new window instead.
In my case, I put my work computer to sleep yesterday evening and started using it again this morning. Now all my links try to open in a new window even if I specifically choose to "Open Link in New Tab".
This is extremely annoying.

GetURL opening in new window instead of frame

Using Flash for a website for the first (always been just a
backend php, asp, java programmer) and having the most frustrating
time with what should be the simplest thing. I have a button that
on the mouse down is supposed to load a link into another frame,
but instead it opens a new window with the link. In the html file I
have an iframe defined with the proper name, that matches the name
placed in the actionscript. What am I missing?
Here is the HTML Code:
<iframe src="home.html" width="766" name="mainFrame"
frameborder="0"><iframe>
Here is the Actionscript Code:
on (release) {
getURL("new.html", "mainFrame");
Thanks a lot for your help!

I can help you there:
on(release) {
getURL("new.html","iframe","GET");
Although if you have a name for your frame, it MIGHT be:
on(release) {
getURL("new.html","mainFrame","GET");
Although personally I'd just keep with using a regular iframe
without a name.

When I click on an email link it opens in the email window instead of opening a new window, how to get it to open a new window instead

It's Comcast email, most links are to articles from the Wall Street Journal. Lately an email from Charles Schwab broker with a link to a pdf file has been doing the same. When I click on the link, it opens within the email frame, which is about 1/3 filled up with the toolbar, mailboxes, headings etc. If it opens with 2 bars on the right side to move down, I can see the whole article, but often it opens with only one bar on the right side which will not let me get all the way to the end of the page.
It's been happening for several weeks. I got a new computer and it's still happening. Comcast sounds like they've never heard of it. Most recently happened today. I tried the same email link with IE and it opened a new window.

Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

Links opening in new window instead of new tab

I'm running Safari Windows 4.0.4. I would like to use multiple tabs within one browser window. However, while in one tab, if I click on a link, it opens a new Safari window. I want it to open another tab. I have the "open links from applications" set to open in new tab, however, I can't find a setting for opening a new tab within sarafi itself. I hate that it opens a new window. Anyone point me in the right direction so that it opens a new tab in the same window?

Is there a way, then, that the Safari team could add an option to the General tab that would default the click-on-link behavior to be the same as CTRL-click? I'm certain that adding such a feature would be insanely easy?
Great browser Apple ... really like it; but could you please fix this in a service-pack soon?
Thanks!

When i click a link on any web page mozilla opens a new window instead of opening the link on the opened window?

when clicking on any link on any webpage a new window opens.
Eg. On the bbc home page if you click "news" a new window opens instead of going to the news page of the web.

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.

Child project opens in new window instead of default window

I have a windows html help Robohelp 9 project. When I view the output chm file, I can select items from the TOC and they are displayed in the default window. I then made this project a child in a master project. If I open the master CHM and select an item from the child project, a child project is opened in a new window. I would prefer that the selected item from the child is displayed in the default window of the master.

Since the introduction of tabbed browsing in Firefox, the default has always been to over-write the currently selected tab with the new page when left-clicking a link or bookmark. You can open a link or bookmark in a new tab by using the following procedures or by installing and setting some preferences within some add-ons. You may have previously used an add-on that is no longer compatible with Firefox (look in Add-ons > Extensions for disabled items).
To open a bookmark or link in a new tab, on the link or bookmark:
*right-click and choose "Open in new tab"
*middle-click (press the mouse wheel button)
*CTRL+left-click
*See --> http://www.7is7.com/software/firefox/shortcuts.html (under "Web Navigation" section)
Some add-ons:
*Tab Utilities --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-utilities/ (light-weight extension)
*Tab Mix Plus --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/tab-mix-plus/ (heavy-weight extension)
*Search for other tab related add-ons --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

SRM iViews open in New Window instead of Portal Content Area

Hi folks,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 business package on our Enterprise Portal 7. By default, all the SRM iViews open in a New Window. But, when I change the iViews to open in the Content Area, only the first iView that I try to open will open in the Content Area. All the remaining ones start opening in a new window with header. When reached out to SAP, they told me to disable the Work Proctect Mode. I tried that as well and still no luck. Please let me know if you guys have any idea how to make all the iViews open in the Content Area invariably. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

How do I create a hyperlink that will open a new window, when saving a frame file as a pdf?

I have created a hyper link in Frame using the message URL command in the marker window. I have added the target="_blank" command after the http url within the marker. But when I then save the frame doc as a pdf and open that pdf from within a browser, when I click on the link in that pdf, it goes to the new link but it does not open in a new window or tab.
What am I doing wrong?
I should mention that I am using Frame 10.

Best solution that I can find to tell you is to get Schlomo Perets' FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers 5.0. From the FrameUsers mailing list:
Schlomo Perets said:
In FrameMaker-to-Acrobat TimeSavers 5.0, the "new window" link control was extended to optionally display web-based links in a new browser window (Links/General tab, Cross-file links: Open PDF in a new window, Also apply to web links).
The function can apply to all web links (i.e. no need to modify anything in the FrameMaker file), or to individual links (in which case a special hypertext marker has to be used instead of the standard "message URL http://..." marker).
For additional info & sample files, see http://www.microtype.com/ImprovePDF10.html

.ics files open in new window instead of downloading

Hello -
When I click to download a linked .ics (calendar) file, instead of downloading the linked .ics file, it opens the contents of the file in a new browser window (and all of the info is garbled with extra characters).
When I right click to save the linked file, it lets me download it.
Any idea why this might be happening?

The Work Protect modes do not seem to affect the 'Open in a headerless portal window' iViews which are opening with the banner and TLN.
For ESS Appraisal document, I was able to fix the problem of the external window having the Banner and TLN by using transaction lpd_cust.
The problem still exists for our Business Packages MSS, SRM, Course Administration, and Instructor/Tutor.
Does anyone know how to correct the 'headerless portal window' so that it does not include the Theme banner and TLN.
Thanks,
D. Maupin
