Close the browser Mozilla automatically
Hello,
I work on forms 10g Oracle10g IAS 10 g.I launches the application on Mozilla firfox 3.0 with separate Frame = yes.when I want that the browser closes automatically when i press exit button.
I solved it with Internet Explorer by creating a page in Close.html ias \ tools \ web \ html that contains this code:
<html>
<head>
<script LANGUAGE="javascript">
window.opener=self;self.close();
</script>
</head>
</html>
and then I put in when the button pressed to leave this code:
web.show_document ( '/ forms / html / close.html', '_self');
it works very well with Internet Explorer but it works with mozilla not, it remains open page close.html
googling for firefox and self.close();
i found the following statement:
To close a window not opened with JavaScript you have to change the Firefox options...
url "about:config"
set the value of "dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows" to truedidn't try myself.

There are other things that need attention:

''I have an example, to be clear enough:
I open Mozilla, I enter www.imdb.com, I look for a movie.
I find a page that I want to send to a friend of mine.
I select from browser bookmark the address, right click on it and select copy.
'''I CLOSE THE BROWSER.'''
When I want to paste that information on any other place (in a document, in chat, in messenger etc.) there is nothing to paste.
The browser forgets the information copied if it is closed. If it's not closed, he doesn't forget.
This is happening on any PC, desktop, laptop and it doesn't matter if it is on vista, windows xp etc.
This problem doesn't exist on Internet Explorer.
Can you tell me if I have a way to change this problem ? To choose whether i want to be that way or not.
Tnank you !''I know this, but i was wondering if there is a way, a setting which will make Mozilla to not forget the inofromation copied after it is closed.
Internet Explorer doesn't clear the information copied on clipboard after it is closed. And you don't have to make a setting for this. He just remember it.
Thank you ! -
How the system automatically kills the process when I close the browser?
Hi everybody,
I have the following problem: I run a report on the web browser. Suppose the user want to detail on one of the characteristics of report. If this takes long time (there are many records in report) and the user closes the web browser, the SAP system still run the proccess (in SM50 I see the dialog process still working, althrough the user closes the browser). This didn't happen in Excel, means, if the user press the 'Cancel' button when he/she tried to detail on one characteristic, the corresponding process is killed too (I see in SM50 how the corresponding dialog process is removed).
How can I solve this ? Any idea about this?
Thanks in advance.
FlorinaFlorina,
there is a timeout set for the web session and the session would get automatically terminated after some time ..
Some options are :
1. Use Stateless Templates
2. There is a Web Template setting called "Automatic Session Management" which uses a page wrapper cookie and kills the session when the person navigates from the page.. - <b>have changed it from previous answer after seeing Anil's post - apologies</b>
3. If you are using EP , you could implement DSM Terminator for the same.
All the above( except 3) will not be suitable for stateful templates , if you want export to excel capability , or printing capability or the capability to save the pages as HTML for local use , you have to use stateful templates.
First you would have to decide whether to use statefull or stateless templates and then depending on the choice made , go for any of the above. In case non of them work out for you , there is another option , but that would include a lot of javascript and using some command line parameters , update this post and I can tel you about the other if required..
Hope it helps..

Inited applet closes the browser automatically
Hello everybody!
I�m new with java and have a strange problem excuting my applet with Mozilla and Internet Explorer but not with Mozilla Firefox.
I have been reading the forum but haven�t found any similar problem.
When I run my applet with Mozilla or Internet Explorer, it says 'Miniapplet inited' in the status bar and suddendly closes the browser window. However if I run the same applet with Mozilla FireFox it goes perfect.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance!!Don�t know what happened but now it is saying the java.io.IOException: CreateProcess: ... error=2.
As I have been reading it means there's no file. If I write down the complete path it goes fine. However, I would like to run an executable file which is in the browser but wanna be executed by the client, is it possible with getRuntime.exec()??
Thanks!! -
Firefox automatically loaded a new version recently. The new version does not shut down when I close the browser it continues running in the background. In addition it opens Adobe Reader for a brief time and then that closes. Everything worked fine before this new version.

I am unable to get yahoo to "stick" as my homepage after I close the browser.
Am setting home page properly. Others have checked.When I close the browser and re open I get the Mozilla start page as my home page instead of Yahoo.
Thank you. I actually to it to a apple service place they tell they need to reload the OS and change a wifi part! Will cost me about Rs. 7,000 (Rs 60 to the USD). Sound right?

Bookmarks toolbar disappears every time I close the browser. Have tried all recommendations.
I have been running Chrome from several versions back when Firefox became very slow. I am now trying to switch back to Firefox. I have 27.0.1. My bookmarks toolbar disappears every time I close the browser. I have tried all recommendations I can find including reset and renaming, etc, but nothing has cured the problem. Restore to default used to work for the current session, but now that does not work. I am about to give up and stick with Chrome as this bookmark toolbar issue is driving me nuts. I am about to try uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling. And that will be my last resort unless I get a solution to this problem. I have been a Firefox user from the very beginning up till 16 or 17 and like Firefox, but this seems to be a common occurrence from my research. BOOKMARKS TOOLBAR IS A MUST HAVE!
Hello,
Firefox automatically creates backups of your bookmarks, which can be helpful if your bookmarks are lost or missing. To recover them, follow the instructions below.
#Use <u>one</u> of these methods to open the Bookmarks Library window:
#*Click the ''[[Display the Firefox button menu instead of the menu toolbar|Firefox button]]'' to open the menu and click on ''Bookmarks''.
#*Click the ''Bookmarks'' menu and click on ''Show All Bookmarks''.
# At the top of the Library window, click the "Import and Backup" menu and select Restore.
# Click the date of the bookmark backup you want to recover.
# In the new window that appears, click OK.
# Your bookmarks from the selected date should now be restored.
For more information, see the [[Restore bookmarks from backup or move them to another computer]] article. For other solutions, see the [[Recover lost or missing Bookmarks]] article.

"Pinning" disappears each time I close the browser!
So I just got pumped up to Firefox 5.0. I'm THRILLED. I'm "pinning" favorite tabs on the left - and KABOOM - they disappear when I close the browser. This is MADDENING.
Also, I don't have the new Firefox button on the top left. I've still got File/Edit/View/History/Bookmarks/Tools/Help.
Any thoughts on what's wrong? Please help.
Thanks so much!!!Although I don't have a problem with them disappearing when I start Firefox, they always seemed like a potential problem over time. I use them but I generally do start them over from a bookmarked folder so the are "clean" only one page per app-tab.

Firefox 5 does not remember changed speed tweaks. Every time I close the browser they revert to the standard setting..what gives!'''bold text'''
'''Moderator note: Locked as dupe of [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/843444 843444] --T'''Now up to Firefox 8 and the problem persists. Cannot go to the www.turnitin.com page and login as I used to do -- Firefox does not remember my username or password.
Still works on Windows, and with other browsers... It would be great if a fix is available. -
Lets say I have a website called xyz, I would like to keep the cache from this site and have everything else deleted when I close the browser.
The involved CSS code can be found in this file that you can open via the location bar.
* chrome://global/skin/autocomplete.css
Look for class .ac-emphasize-text and apply modified rules as you like.
You need to add the !important flag to override rules.
Add code to the <b>userChrome.css</b> file below the default @namespace line.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/userChrome.css
<pre><nowiki>@namespace url("http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"); /* only needed once */
@namespace html url("http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml");
html|span.ac-emphasize-text {
box-shadow: none!important;
background-color: transparent !important;
border-radius: 0px;
text-shadow: none !important;
</nowiki></pre>
The customization files userChrome.css (user interface) and userContent.css (websites) are located in the <b>chrome</b> folder in the Firefox profile folder.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Editing_configuration
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
* Create the chrome folder (lowercase) in the <xxxxxxxx>.default profile folder if this folder doesn't exist
* Use a plain text editor like Notepad to create a (new) userChrome.css file in this folder (the names are case sensitive)
* Paste the code in the userChrome.css file in the editor window and make sure that the userChrome.css file starts with the default @namespace line
* Make sure that you select "All files" and not "Text files" when you save the file via "Save file as" in the text editor as userChrome.css. Otherwise Windows may add a hidden .txt file extension and you end up with a not working userChrome.css.txt file -
I have set Firefox to delete all cookies when I close the browser. Some websites identify my computer with a cookie, so when I try to log in to these sites, they don't recognize my computer because the identifying cookie has been deleted. I understand that Internet Explorer has a feature that preserves specified cookies, but haven't been able to find that capability in Firefox. Is there a way to do it?
Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox.
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
Make an Allow exception for the ones that you want to keep.
* Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"
You can inspect and modify the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
Make sure that you do not use "Clear Recent History" to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences" (Site Preferences includes the cookie exceptions)
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Clear+Recent+History
Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies that have an allow exception.

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, the next time I reopen the browser while the downloads are still going, it returns me to the last page I was on. All previous versions of Firefox would return me to my homepage which I would prefer. Please let me know if this is possible.
When you re-open Firefox and choose Restore Session, by default it picks up your most-recently-open window, and the other windows should then show up in Recently Closed Windows.
The Firefox add-on Session Manager lets you manage how many closed windows and closed tabs are saved, in case it's not enough. -
I was in the process of downloading something tonight and decided to close my browser. Unfortunately, the download window also closed and that meant my download was gone and I would have to start over again.
I went back and started the download again and the download box showed the file picked up where it left off but when I closed the browser the same thing happened again; the download box closed when I closed the browser.
The reason I close the browser is because my downloads download faster when the browser is closed and now that option is closed to me.
Is this a new feature if so I don't like it as a matter of fact I would say I'm very pissed off with this new development. Please go back to fixing it so I can close the browser and still download.Hi cor-el:
Thanks for responding to my post.
I went to about:config like you suggest and changed the the thing you said. There is no improvement. Instead of my browser and the download box closing when I click on exit button/link now a box pops up with the message "If you exit now, 1 download will be canceled. Are you sure you want to exit?
I don't need a box to warn me that if I exit that the downloads manager would close as well...I already know that and that's the problem. I want a way to stop the download manager box from closing when I exit the browser like it used to.
Thanks anyway.
