APEX... Link to open URL in a new window

I have one of my interactive reports' column linked to a URL... so when my user click on the link it opens an associated webpage...
How can I make it to open in a new window...
Thanks

Hi,
I am trying to open my page as a popup without refreshing the parent window.
Here is what i have done
1. created a navigation bar entry for help
2. pointed the entry to a page in the application
3. opening the page as a popup with the following code in it.
javascript:window.open('&WORKSPACE_IMAGES.APEX_Reporting_User_Guide.pdf#&P0_PAGE_NAME.','popup1');
my help page opens as a popup, but also refreshes the parent window with a blank screen.
i also tried a few other options
javascript:window.open('&WORKSPACE_IMAGES.APEX_Reporting_User_Guide.pdf#&P0_PAGE_NAME.','popup1');void(0);
javascript:window.open('&WORKSPACE_IMAGES.APEX_Reporting_User_Guide.pdf#&P0_PAGE_NAME.','popup1');return false;
but none of these are helpful
Am I going wrong somewhere?
Thanks

hi,
Do the following steps :
-> Make an Outbound Plug to the Window.
->Make the type of Outbound plug to Exit Type.
->Add URL of type String as a parameter to the outbound plug of Window.
->Do remember to add Component Name in the Properties Tab of View ( othervs Calling Outbound plug of window from view wont b possible ).
To open a new URL with closing the previous one write this Code in OnAction of Button : ( this Code can be get from Code Wizard too ).
DATA lo_zexit TYPE REF TO ig_zexit . <zexit is name of my Component>
lo_zexit = wd_this->get_zexit_ctr( ).

Open URL in a new window

I have a project slide with buttons that open a URL that points to the .htm project file for another project in a new window with the current project to stay running. This causes the course to close completely in the LMS?

Hi,
try setting the button to open the url in a new window, that way the students will not have to "start over" when they need to go back to the module.
Just go into your button properties and next to your url, click the down arrow and select new. This will open the url in a new window. You can uncheck the continue playing move choice also to stop the movie so it doesnt continue to play when the user is visiting the webpage.

Link to open pdf file in new window

I want to create a link on a web page to open a pdf file in a
new window. I used the "on click" "open brower window". Which does
open the pdf file, but not in a new window. How do I open it in a
new window?

Your code is a mess:
** there is no apparent reason for the span:
<td>Milford, OH
So change that line to:
<td>Milford, OH
** here you have two double quotes before This.
<a title="This" class="pdfFile"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('pdf/PR_Launch.pdf','','')"
Change it to this, (with some other improvements):
<a title="This" class="pdfFile"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow(this.href,'','');return false"
** This is code salad:
href="PR_Launch.pdf" link="" will="" open="" a=""
.pdf=""
file.="">More (PR_Launch.pdf,
230kb)</a></td>
Change it to:
href="pdf/PR_Launch.pdf">More (PR_Launch.pdf,
230kb)</a></td>
If you continue to have trouble, you might find my divaPOP
Extension
easier, and far more powerful. It automat6ically opens pdf
files and
links to all external files in a popup window without your
needing to

The customized link on CRM screen opens URL in a new window

Hello CRM gurus
I have customized the main CRM screen by adding a link on the left hand menu bar. When I click on this link, it starts the right URL but it is opening it in a seperate window.
I want that to be displayed on the right hand side of the same screen like other standard items does.
Is there any switch that I need to select to make this happen.
Any feedback or response will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ram

and then
selected

Hope this help others with same question.

Firefox will not open windows that are linked on a site, for example reviewing a piece of work that has a link which opens it in a new window.

There are links on site that open in new windows and close after you are done. Like A review link/box. The window opens but it's a blank page and the url books just says "search bookmarks and history".
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I changed a theme/Just before I upgraded firefox

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

How to open URL iView in new window

HI,
We are not able to open the URL iView, which is assigned to page, in new window.
We set the property "Launch in New Window" to Launch in Separate Window but no use.
Please let us know the solution
Thanks

Hi Tatayya,
Remove the delta-link that you have done for that iview to the page. Change the necessary settings on the iview level (skip this part if you have already done). Then re-"delta-link"the iview to the page and test if it open in a different window.
Could also be your cache, so go ..navigate via Sys adm--> Navigation -> clear cache.
Hope that helps.

Every time I click on a link to open it in a new window, the new window is tiny and I have to resize it every time, does anyone know how I can stop it opening new windows so small?

I am using firefox 8.0.1 this only happens when I click a link that is automatically set to open in a new window, or when I choose to open a link in a new window. Firefox never remembers what I resize that window too.

I believe this is a duplicate of an existing question, which has answers: https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/749313

VBScript message when opening URL's in new window.

Hi,
I've got a folio that uisng buttons to oopen up some external URL's. On some of them I get this error message
<%@ Language=VBScript %> <% ' Permanent redirection Response.Status = "301 Moved Permanently" Response.AddHeader "Location", "URL/" Response.End %>
And some work fine. I can't find any difference in the method of making the buttons or any consistency. Has any one else seen this message before?
Thanks

Has anybody found a solution to this?
We have the same problem when calling BW Reports.
Best regards,

Lately, Firefox often won't open the links when I click on them but will only open them when I ask it to open them in a new window or tab.

Often when I open Firefox, in the middle of a session it'll stop responding to my clicking on a link to open it in the same window. It'll show the url in the bottom when I hover over it but will do nothing when I click on it. It will only work when I either right click on it (then select open in new window/tab) or command click on it (opens in new tab automatically). I've noticed that it happens a lot when clicking on a link for a Google search result, but I know that it's not exclusively there, and it probably just sticks out more in my mind.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] 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).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Captivate 7 Click box and bottons not able to open an URL on a new window

I inserted a button and a click box in CP7 to open an URL on a new window. The URL opens but in a New Tab. There is an issue that the URL cannot be opened on a NEW WINDOW, I am using IE and Chrome. Do you have any ideas about this issue and how to troubleshoot it? I tried with Safari and it works fine.
Thanks, Jorge - Adobe Captivate 7 user.

Hi Jorge
It's my understanding that all you can do is to configure the link to open in a new "whatever". Whether you get the link opening in a tab or a window is left up to the browser and how the particular user has their browser configured. For example, I use Firefox and when I look at its settings here is what I see.
I'm guessing there must be a way to force a new window, because I do see new windows appear. But I think in those cases folks are doing it by using JavaScript.

When I click a link to open the page in new tab, it open the new page beside my page.

After I update FireFox to version 3.6.8, I could not open the new page in the last tab, it always opens the new page in beside the tab.
Mmm…I could not make sure the new page or new tab I said is the same with you…?? (I use Chinese version so that I don’t know if it’s the same or not…)
A window could open several pages with different tabs, and I could click different tab to different page, right?
If I right clicked a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same window, the new tab opened in the last tab of my window.
But after I update FireFox to version 3.6.8 and I click a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same windoe, the new tab will open beside my page. (Mmm…Open on right of my page.)
I would like the “new tab” open to the last tab in my window, not “beside” the tab I used. How could I change the setting??)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After I update FireFox to 3.6.8

That feature isn't new to 3.6.8, it was changed in 3.6.
Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
Filter = '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
Double-click that preference to change the value to '''''false'''''

How to control+left click a link to open it in a new tab?

I want to be able to hold control while I click on a link to open it in a new tab. This works on chrome so why not on Firefox?

A Ctrl and left-click should work in Firefox as well. 
You can also middle-click a link to open a link in a new tab.

Opening a url in a new window

Guys,
I have a situation to open a url (url is formed dynamically) in a new window on the click of a button (command button).
I tried to use Go button, but in go button there is no way to provide the url dynamically. I mean i form the url by reading the contents of the page. But go button doesnt allow to form the URL dynamically.
The problem with command button is, it doesnt open the URL in a new window.
My requirement is
i click on the button on a page -> go to method (read the contents of the page) to form the URL -> open the URL in a new window
How this can be acheived.

Yes, but i need a method to do my calculation to build the dynamic URL.
I have resolved it using command button
public void actionlistener(actionevent event)
String dynamicUrl = // logic to build url;
FacesContext ctx = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ExtendedRenderKitService erks =
Service.getService(ctx.getRenderKit(), ExtendedRenderKitService.class);
String url = "window.open('" + dynamicUrl + "','_blank');";
erks.addScript(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(),url);
this resolved my issue
