Creating hyperlinks that will open in a new window

I am an avid user of Aperture and iWeb. I love the interface of the Aperture web layouts, but I am also trying to link them to my iWeb site. The easy thing would be to have my iWeb links just open my Aperture photo galleries in a new window so that viewers of my galleries can just close that window instead of hitting the back button a thousand times. How can I do this???
If this isn't possible, any other suggestions? I can't seem to insert a link into my Aperture galleries to link viewers back to the main gallery pages.

You need to add the expression target="_blank" to your published hyperlinks. The format of the hyperlink would be...
[a href ="xyz.html" target="_blank"] but the [...] needs to be replaced with <...> in order to get the HTML to work
Here is an example for my own website...
===>www.DirtDoog.com<===</a>
This change to your hyperlinks will need to be made to the published HTML files that iWeb generates. If you have just one or two links that need to be changed, you can probably do it by hand. Otherwise, you will appreciate programs like MassReplaceIt (http://www.hexmonkey.brownhost.com/) that can execute batch processes on an entire folder of HTML files at a click of the mouse.

PDF link that will open in a new window.

Is there a way to link to a PDF file so that it will open in a new window. The same way that a link to an external page can do. Can I put it in iDisk and do it that way.

1. Create a folder in your iDisk/Web/Sites folder.
2. Name it something like 'files' or whatever
3. Copy your .pdf or any other file to that folder
4. web.mac.com/username/nameofthefolder/nameofthefile.extension is the address at which the file will be stored on the web
Example: http://web.mac.com/username/files/nameofthefile.pdf
Put this url as Link to: an external page (changing username and name of the file).
It should work with open in a new window.

Cédric

How can I embed a PDF in my Captivate 5.5 project that will open in a new window when the user click

I put a glossary button in my project. When the user clicks on the button, I want the file to open in a new browser window. This works in preview mode, but not when I publish it. What am I doing wrong?

I've tried the download three times. It reports that installation was successful, but when I use Firefox I still get only an option to download the .pdf; I still can't read it within the browser. This fix WAS for Firefox 5.0, right?

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

Create a new page that will open in a separate window

Hi, I would like to add a new page to my website but have it open into a new window when linked to instead of replacing the page that was open thereby having both pages open side by side. The example would be having my bio open up along side my about us page if a link is chosen. Then the reader can see both and close the bio when done and continue on from my about us page. Is this possible? How? Thanks in advance.

You can set navbar links to open in new window with this snippet, add the following to your pages using HTML Snippet:
<script type='text/javascript'>
function setTarget_blank() {
nav_layer = parent.document.getElementById('nav_layer');
nav_links = nav_layer.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (i=0; i<nav_links.length; i++)
nav_links[].target = '_blank'; // force links to open in new widow
if (window.addEventListener) {
window.addEventListener("load",setTimeout("setTarget_blank()", 500),false);
} else if (window.attachEvent) {
window.attachEvent("onload",setTimeout("setTarget_blank()", 500));
} else {
window.onload = function() {setTarget_blank();}
</script>

How do I just upgrade iWeb?
Although you have to buy the complete iLife '08 package, you don't have to install every application — you can do a selective "custom" install:
1. Insert the iLife ’08 Install DVD into your computer’s drive.
2. Open the DVD in the Finder window. Double-click the iLife ’08 icon to begin the installation and registration process.
3. Click Agree to agree to the iLife ’08 software license.
4. On the Select a Destination screen, make sure your primary hard disk is selected, then click Continue.
5. Click Install on the next screen if you wish to install the entire iLife ’08 suite. +*If you wish to install or upgrade only specific programs (for example, you want to install only iWeb), then click Custom Install and check the boxes next to the programs you want to update or install.*+
6. Enter your system’s password. Click OK.
7. To register the iLife software with Apple, click Register when prompted. Your web browser will open and take you to Apple’s registration page, where you can fill out the necessary information. You may also click Later if you want to skip the registration process.
8. Once installation is complete, click Finish.
The iWeb ’08 icon will now appear in the dock on your Mac’s desktop. To launch iWeb, just click the icon.
I don't want to upgrade everything, especially not after reading about iMovie 08.
If you decide to install iMovie ’08, because it is so different from the previous version of iMovie, the iLife ’08 upgrade process has been set up so that won’t delete the older version of iMovie when the new version is installed. After you’ve completed the iLife ’08 upgrade, you’ll still find the older iMovie application in a folder labeled iMovie (Previous Version) inside your Applications folder.

Creating a link in a PDF form to open into a new window

I have created the PDF form and every thing seems to be working fine. But I would like to set a link in the form that would open into a separate page. I have tried target="_blank" and onclick="window.open(this.href, 'child', 'scrollbars,width=650,height=600'); return false" with no success. Can someone give me some direction on how to create a link within a PDF form that will open into a new window?

Try this, using JavaScript:
app.launchURL("http://www.adobe.com",true);

How do I restore to a tab a tab that I have accidentally opened in a new window?

When you right on the tab header, there is an option there that says "Open in a New Window." This option can likewise be achieved when you left click on the tab header and drag it downward. When chosen (or done), and as a matter of course, the tab opens in a new window.
Sometimes by movement in between tabs, I will accidentally open a tab in a new window, separating it from the other related tabs I have already open. How do I restore or revert that new window back to tab form?

You can drag a tab back from that new window onto the tab bar of another window in the position where you want it. If that makes a window empty then that window is closed automatically.

When I click on a web link and hold down ctrl the page will not open into a new tab, it is just opening in a new window. How do I correct this?

When I use to hold down the ctrl key and left click on a web link, the page use to open into a new tab. For some reason this is not working anymore. Instead when I hold down the ctrl key and left click on a web link, the link will open into a new window. How do I fix this?

I figured out how to correct it. Not sure what exactly was happening. But I started into private browsing and then turned it off. It's been working correctly ever since I did private browsing.

When I try to open a link (which would automatically open in a new window), for example a larger image, or a link etc, it opens but will not load. It either refuses to load or, in the case of an image, says 'stopped'.

As I say, since I updated to 3.6.15 I am unable to open links off a webpage that should open in a new window, or even open enlarged photographs in a separate window. Either, in the case of the latter, I get the message "stopped" in the bottom of the browser window, or in the former case it either appears to begin to load the new page but then stalls. Sometimes I don't even get this, but end up with "(Untitled)" appearing in the tab label.
As you can imagine, this is causing a great deal of problems and I am keen to sort it out asap.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Open details in new window

Hi all,
I have created a navigation button in my calendar in order to see business partner details for an activity.
Everything works fine now but when I click on a business partner to see its details the account summary page replaces my calendar page. If I press the "Back" button, I go back to Calendar but the activity is not selected any more (I have to click on it again). That's why I am trying to display account details in a new window.
And my question is: how can I tell PC-UI that I want to open a new window?
Thank you.

You can freeze individual windows by clicking on the push pin at the top left. The next object will open in a new window.
You can make this the default behavior by selecting 'Automatically Freeze Object Viewer Windows in Tools -> Options -> Database -> Object View Parameters

ADF in Jdev 10.1.3.2 - Wrong Page Opens When "Open Link in New Window" Used

We are former Oracle Forms/Reports developers and Struts developers in the early stages of a new project using ADF in JDeveloper 10.1.3.2. We are all new to this development environment (though not new to Java), so apologies in advance if this is trivial.
Our early work is based on samples extracted from Oracle's ADF Tutorial for Forms/4GL developers and is pretty simple at this stage. We have done little more than create a page layout and implemented skeletons of each page. As long as we click a link with the left mouse button, we can navigate from page to page as expected, no problem.
The strangeness starts when we right click a link, and select Open in New Window. For example:
(Note, all of this is taking place in our development environment: Jdeveloper running on our personal PCs / laptops, we have not even tried to deploy to an application server yet):
1. Open page 1.
2. Error 1: Right click button or tab to page 2, select Open in New Window. Page 1, not page 2, will open in the new window.
3. Close the new window so that the original page 1 is displayed.
4. Left click a link to navigate to page 2. Page 2 is display as expected.
5. On page 2, left click link back to page 1 (NOT the browser Back button). Page 1 is displayed as expected.
6. Error 2: Right click a link to page 3, select Open in New Window. Page 2, not page 3 will open in the new window.
7. Close the window containing Page 2. Left-click the link for page 3 and it will open as expected.
8. On page 3, left click a link back to page 1 (NOT the browser Back button). Page 1 is displayed as expected.
9. Now right-click the same link to page 3 as in step 6 and select open in new window and page 3 will display as expected.
The logs mention "Reusing a cached session application module instance" and I think this is where our trouble is. I considered turning this caching off (if possible) to see if it clears up the problem, but (a) I don't see where to do that and (b) it seems like we would want to use any caching features once we go to production.
I suspect we have some minor configuration error somewhere as it seems unlikely that ADF applications would all come with a "No opening in new windows allowed" warning. Or, maybe we are just missing the boat on why this shouldn't work. Either way, any useful guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Pravin
We dont get number datatype if you have SQL92 selected as SQL Flavour. So i dont think this would help. SQL TYPE Map is JAVA basically in my project. Do you want me to import some of oracle.jbo.domains specifically or something else you want me to do

Javascript window.open needs to always open in a new window

I am tring to create a menu system. When the user selects an item, then clicks Open Application, I want them to be able to open the application in a new browser window with specific window prefs.
I have added this javascript to my page html header
function launchAbout() {
about = window.open("&P2_URL.", "CAT", "&P2_WINDOW_PREFS.");
return false;
I then have a html region with the source as:
A HREF="&P2_URL." onClick="return launchAbout()" <img src=/i/ocpa/open_app.jpg></A>
When I click on open app, the first time the app will open in a new window, but the second time it will just change the already open window to the new app. If I create new function then the new function call will open in the new window, but the next time it will just refresh.
It seems like this function only opens a new window the first time it is called. Does anyone have any ideas how to open a new window every time?

I was able to fix my problem. I had to change the java script to this:
function launchAbout() {
about = window.open("&P2_URL.", "_blank", "&P2_WINDOW_PREFS.");
return false;
}
