  • Any way to open new browser window without using image maps?

    Is there any way to open new browser window without using image maps? My code works fine in Firefox, but not in IE. There are 2 problems in IE: 1st is that the thumbnail images move up within their own borders & 2nd that when you click on an image it does open up a new browser window, but also redirects to the index page (in this case it's just a placeholder index page - the new one I've called index_new.html for the time being).
    Here is the link:

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Your missing a value on the HREF.  In your code you have this:
    <area shape="rect" coords="-24,-9,106,144" href=" " onclick="MM_openBrWindow('gallery_bead1.html','','width=255,height=360')" />
    </map></div>
    and it should be this:
    <area shape="rect" coords="-24,-9,106,144" href="javascript:void()" onclick="MM_openBrWindow('gallery_bead1.html','','width=255,height=360')" />
    </map></div>
    If you fix the code on all your beads, it should work.

  • HT204048 Is there any way at all to install Windows 7 32 bit onto a MacBook Pro 13 in Retina Late 2013?  The windows software I need won't run on Windows 7 64 bit.

    Not using Boot Camp, but you should be able to using virtualization software such as Parallels to run Windows concurrently with OS X.

  • Is there any way of removing the browser buttons from the right click menu?

    Recently when I right-click on a web page, there are browser buttons (forward, backward, refresh, bookmarks) on the right-click menu for some inexplicable reason. I mean, its kind of absurd that anyone would put browser buttons there, considering the real browser buttons literally right there at the top of the window, and I guess that kinda bugs me.
    Anyway, how did I get rid of them? There doesn't seem to be any way to do so in the customize window, and I've been looking for an add-on but don't really know what to search for. Does anyone know?
    Where did those come from anyway? They weren't there a week ago, and I'm pretty sure these things don't normally just pop up out of nowhere. If nobody knows, its really not important. The important thing is getting rid of them. Thanks!

    That was a new feature in Firefox 32, which was released back in September. Use this UserStyle to get rid of those buttons and restore the text menu items.

  • Af:fileDownloadActionListener - any way to force new browser session?

    Hi all
    I'm using af:fileDownloadActionListener to download a file.
    It works fine except for one thing:
    For some file types it does not open a new browser session but just replaces the existing page content.
    That's really ok by itself, but we have a problem if the users presses the browser Back Button to get back to the application.
    As we're using partial page rendering and af:region this will result in an error:
    Error 403--Forbidden
    From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
    10.4.4 403 Forbidden
    The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it. Authorization will not help and the request SHOULD NOT be repeated. If the request method was not HEAD and the server wishes to make public why the request has not been fulfilled, it SHOULD describe the reason for the refusal in the entity. This status code is commonly used when the server does not wish to reveal exactly why the request has been refused, or when no other response is applicable
    So my question is: is there any way of forcing a new browser session to open when using af:fileDownloadActionListener?
    We're using JDeveloper 11.1.1.1.0.

    Tove

    Hello

    Frank, is it possible to know when we'll have the correction available.
    It is just to inform our client about this issue.
    Thx

    PS: is there a workaround till the correction is done?

  • Any way to do this? Windows program without installing windows.

    I got Adobe Premier Pro last year after winning a local film competition. I got a PC version because my best computer at the time was a PC. Now I have a Macbook pro and would really like to do my editing on it. I know I could install XP on the Mac with bootcamp but I don't really want to. I was wondering if there was anyway of somehow getting the PC version to work. Possibly emulating it somehow. I don't really have the money to buy XP anyway and I'm moving away to college with only the macbook. I have no desire to go back to imovie. Is there any way to get Primeire Pro to work with out having XP?
    Macbook Pro 17 in.   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Not yet, but I think some 3rd party developers are working on a solution similar to WINE (on Linux) that would allow Windows programs to boot up in a Mac environment.

  • Any way to connect iPod to Windows XP via network?

    Is there is a way, app or not, to connect a 2G touch to Windows XP via a WiFi network connection? For instance, once it picks up a WiFi connection, is there any way I can "see" the iPod in network places etc. Mainly I want to do this so I can access my music from my workstation and copy it over (temporarily), if that's at all possible, but I could see the value in transporting other files (I'm aware of air sharing). Thanks in advance.

    Darn. Okay, how about the alternative: If I could store some mp3s in a folder on iPod, do you know or suggest the best method to allow me to access it from a computer on the network without plugging iPod in? Thanks agian.

  • Is ther any way of filling credentials in Windows logon using script?

    Hello,
    Is there any way to fill in login and password at windows logon using a script (that would be started via psexec)? Bat would be great, but any other is ok too. Nothing more, no mapping. Just logon.
    I've spent a few days searching for this info, and haven't found any usefull info. Anyone tried such thing?
    Cheers,
    K.
    PS. Sorry if I'm writing in the wrong section. Not shure where this topic should go.

    There is no way to do this in Windows, Unix or any other system.
    You can set a Windows account to "auto-logon" but only one account can be set per machine.
    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  • Most recent version of Mozilla Firefox (Windows 7 64 Pro) will open but not display any content in the open browser window.

    After logging into Laptop, Win 7 64bit Pro and launching Mozilla Firefox the browser window opens but the content is blank or black. Mouse over produces change and the only thing I can get to display is when I click in the area the Config/Setup icon would be on the tool bar.
    Even uninstalled and then reinstalled the latest versions of Firefox but still getting the exact same results. Yesterday there were many Windows Updates applied to my computer but after rebooting post updates, Firefox was working fine for the entire day and evening.

    hello spitcher, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
    in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

  • Is there a way to magnify the browser window slightly similar to IE I would like to go to 125% ?

    Ok, with IE one has the option of increasing or decreasing the default browser window v v magnification. Old eye's need to magnify by 25% to view comfortably. 23" monitor so no lateral problems magnifying. But as yet have been unable to find similar option within Firefox.

  • Any way to NOT use the Windows theme?

    The reason I downloaded Safari on my PC was because I loved the way it looked, and how it worked, plus the smooth text, but not it looks like Google Chrome or IE.
    Is there any way to change it to the Mac look?

    Yea the new changes are hard to digest for those that liked the Mac look. But I have some advice though, that made me feel more comfortable with it.
    Safari Preferences > Appearance > Font Smoothing = Medium
    That should make the fonts look like they did before. Also if you use Vista and think the Title bar is difficult to read, try:
    Control Panel > Customize Colors > Choose Frost
    (if you have a dark desktop background, this makes the tabs much more readable and Mac like :))

  • Is there any way to save a browsing session i.e. save a window of tabs?

    If i am browsing a subject and have several related tabs open is there a way to save these tabs in a group so i can open them all together again? I dont necessarily want to open all these tabs on start up but maybe in the future sometime when i am browsing this topic again.

    OK thanks but that just bookmarks the pages - i want to be able to open them all up again at some time in the future when i am working on a certain subject.
    And i dont want them to open up every time i start firfox.
    Found this comment on review of tab saver add on page :
    ''For people that do a lot of inter-related research with many tabs on many firefox windows open is to be able to save a whole windows worth of tab addresses to a document to be opened later. This is needed because at some point your resources become over taxed and at best slow operation, at worst a chrash. this would allow for one page to be saved and re-opend at a time rather than closing down and saving them all, and opening with the same resource headache.
    you could save windows for a specific search theme seperate from other windows-search themes until resource problem is removed below resource problem threshold. ''
    So i guess for now its not possible but it seems like such an obvious feature to include......

  • Adobe Acrobat 9 installed but cannot read any PDF file from a Browser window

    I have a new(-ish) PC running Vista and had Adobe Acrobat v9 installed.  However I cannot open PDF files when trying to view from a Browser on a web site.  IE8, Firefox and Chrome all produce the same error that claims I need to install Adobe 8 or 9.  Have searched "Manage add-ons" and found Adobe enabled.  Have hunted around but cannot seem to find a way to fix this.  Any ideas?  This seems so fundamental that it is difficult to believe that (a) it happened in the first place and (b) that there is not an obvious way to fix it!

    Are you on a PC with a profile setup?
    Assuming you are,
    Rename your profile to something like PROFILE.OLD and then relog into the PC.  If the PDF's open without issue, you can remove the Abode folders in the old profile under Documents and Settings\%profile%\Application Data and Local Settings\Application Data.
    Rename the new profile to yet something else like PROFILE.NEWOLD.   Then rename your PROFILE.OLD to its original name.  Confirm that you have removed the above folders from this existing profile.   Perform MIGWIZ I.E. Export files and settings to a folder. Now rename the profiles so that the .NEWOLD is the active profile and run migwiz there - bringing in your old settings.  These steps are only needed if you wish to preserve all the data and settings from your old profile.
    Hope this helps!

  • Any way to install OO4O in Windows 7?

    I just got a shiny new Windows 7 development box, and found I couldn't really install a full client on it, but managed to install ODT, which ought to be enough to support most development work.
    But unfortunately, there is one ASP Classic app that I have to support, which uses OraOLEDB connection strings and a few OO4O calls. I have not managed to persuade OO4O to install, because it finds a Windows version of "6.1" objectionable. The installer I ran into this with was "ODTwithODAC1020221". I don't know if there's a lighter-weight OO4O installer I can try.
    Is there some workaround, or some manual way, where I can convince OO4O to be installed on this machine? It's just for development, it doesn't have to be trustworthy or anything. If it can limp along enough to just establish a connection, that's about all I need.
