Can't get "Open in new window" to work

Having my Macbook Pro on service I had to setup my good old Powerbook G4 again. The only stupid problem I have is that how ever I make the settings in Safari 5.0.1 it wont open any links in a new window. They always open in a new tab.
Even is the link is "open in new window" or what ever. What do I miss here?!? Is there other settings for Safari then the preferences in Safari?

Maybe my plist file is corrupted?
Could be. Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder. Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.

When I right-click on a link, can I have "open in new window" first, like it used to be?

I prefer to open in new window when I right-click on a link. In this new version of firefox, open in tab is now on top. Can I have open in new window the first of the options?

You can rearrange the menu items with the Menu Editor extension.

Why can I not open a new window but I can open new tabs in V3.6.16?

I am running Firefox 3.6.16 on both my PC and my laptop. The program works fine on my PC, I can open both new windows and new tabs. However, on my laptop I can not open a new window. Tabs open just fine, but when I try to open a new window nothing happens. Also, when I close the program after trying to open a new window the program is still running but I have no Firefox window to work in and therefore have to go through the Task Manager to end the program. And when I re-open it, I get asked if I want to restore the session or start a new session. Is there a way to

Why can't I open a new window now? I prefer a new window to a tab.

I like using Mozilla, I also like to open a new window, as opposed to a tab (that's just me I guess). I now have to Control W to get a window - can't the open be brought back? (and I don't always need the Private Window).

Hmm, how were you opening it before?
In Firefox 29 and higher, there is a menu button with 3 horizontal bars at the right end of the main toolbar. This should have "New Window" as an item. If you prefer to use the classic menu bar, and open a new window from the File menu, you can display the bar using any of these methods:
* right-click a blank area of the tab bar > Menu Bar
* right-click the "+" button on the tab bar > Menu Bar
* tap the Alt key to display the bar temporarily, then View > Toolbars > Menu Bar
* click the "3-bar" menu button > Customize > Show/Hide Toolbars
If New Window is not available and you only have New Private Window, then you may be in a private window already.
By the way, Ctrl+w should ''close'' the current tab, at least on Windows.

Using Firefox 5 in Windows 7, once I have Firefox open, I can no longer open a new window using the start button. How do I fix?

As I stated, I have Windows 7 on my laptop and have installed Firefox 5. I sometimes like to have multiple windows of the browser open. But, unlike any previous version of Firefox, now when I have the browser open, when I try to open a new window using the Start menu, it will not open one. I have to use Ctrl+N. Why did this change?
This may seem insignificant but it really hampers my work flow. For one, with other applications, Shift+N is what opens a new window. For two, I've been doing with with my browsers for years now and it's like second nature for me - having to remember that in Firefox it's Ctrl+N is a pain in my tuccus.
Firefox is my go to browser and I would like it to stay that way. Please find the solution for me! I have tried looking using Tools, Options, as well as looking at my start menu and taskbar options, and no dice.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions 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.

Link doesn't get open in new window/tab

Hi I have a expression on a text box, which shows a link. What i want is, when I click on the link, it should open in new tab. I have the expression below, it opens the link in the same tab, but not in a separate tab.
=IIf(Fields!myField.Value="Online","<a href=""http://www.google.com"" target=""_blank"">" & "[Click here to do]" & "</a>","")
Can anybody help please? Thanks.

Hi ca4fil,
According to your description, you want to click the URL then open the page in a new tab.
As we tested in our environment, when clicking the URL in a report, the target="_blank” included within the HTML tag is not supported to open a new tab. In your scenario, since you want to open the URL in a new tab, you could set the “Go to URL” option
with the expression like below:
=IIF(Fields!myField.Value="Online","javascript:void(window.open('http://www.google.com','_blank'))","")
Besides, you should make sure you have selected the "Always open pop-ups in a new tab" option in Internet Options.
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.
Best regards,

Can "Navigate" feature open in new window?

Hi everyone,
this should be an easy one, can the "Navigate" to other report/dashboard option be forced to open in a new window? If so, how?
thanks!
-Joe

Hi David,
Here's a little more detailed explanation of what I'm looking for. Suppose we have a financial report which is a vertical bar chart which shows total revenue by month. We've setup the interaction on the chart to Navigate to a detailed report for the month which is clicked on. Right now, when you click on the detailed report, it show up in the current web browser window you have open. I would like the report to show up in a new web browser window so that we can compare the details to the summary chart.
Do you have any idea how to accomplish that?
Thanks!

Why can't I open a new window?

Whenever I select "New Window" from under the "File" menu, nothing happens. The selection is shown as a blank under the "Window" menu. Upgraded to Firefox 5 hoping that would stop the problem, but the problem persists.

It seems like it was SEOpen 1.2, although I stopped enabling more add-ons once it started working and I had the main add-ons that I use frequently active again. So there are a couple of other ones that I have not re-activated and probably won't. But it seems like that one was the trouble-maker.

JavaScript and "Open In New Window" not working.

I've been using Safari 5 since it came out and there were no problems. But recently my JavaScript has stopped working. Whenever I click on a link that is supposed to run a script nothing happens. Similarly when I click a link that is supposed to open automatically in a new window, nothing happens. I've tried reseting Safari but that did not help. I had this same issue with Safari 4 and the update to 5 solved it, but now I do not know what to do.

HI and welcome to Apple Discussions...
From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Security tab.
Make sure Java is enabled.
And, from a Finder window select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. Then open the Library folder, then the Caches folder, then the com.apple.Safari folder. Move the cache.db file to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari. If you still have problems, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
I had this same issue with Safari 4 and the update to 5 solved it, but now I do not know what to do.
If nothing above helps, install the v10.6.4 Combo Update
Then repair permissions.
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and *restart your Mac*.

I just upgraded to 6.0 and links that want to open in a new window do not work. Right click and selecting open in new window does work.

Similarly clicking a link in email does not open a window. I can drag the link to Firefox and a new tab opens.
Also clicking Tools -> Add-ons does not open a tab as it used to.

mha007, Thank you. I walked through your suggested solutions and finally disabled all add-ons and restarted them one by one. The culprit seems to be ViewSourceWith 0.8.11. Interestingly when it is enabled I had to go to TaskManager to force Firefox to quit.
Maybe this information will help others. I don't know if the cache clearing etc helped but I would suggest that others start but Bringing up Firefox in Safe Mode (hold shift when you select the icon), disable all add-ons and then start them one by one.
Of course if you have ViewSourceWith maybe you should just disable it first rather than go through the tedium of restarting each add-on separately. To get to the add-ons when it won't open from the toolbar type about:addons in the address area.

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.....

Kai
