CS3/CS4 - Open URL in browser

Hi
I want to create an image widget containing a logo, that when clicked, opens a company URL in the default browser.
Does the SDK contain functions for opening a URL in the default browser, or do I have to write explicit code for Windows and Mac?
Thanks
Kind regards Toke

Expose an FM or RFC as an http url (invoke FM by opening url in browser)

Hi,
We have a function module e.g. Z_PROCESS_ORDERS, it does not have any import parameters, and there are no export parameters. the FM basically performs some action in SAP. e.g inserting a value a ztable.
is it possible to invoke this FM over the internet url.
I am not speaking about webservice.
I am talking about a plain http url. something like: http://sapserver:xxxx/blahblah/Z_PROCESS_ORDERS/xyz/something
if anyone clicks or opens this url in Internet explorer, the FM should be invoked in sap.
i searched on sdn, and found that webservice is an option, but to invoke it we need a webservice client or consumer proxy.
but my end user doesnot have that, and he wants just a IE link (http link) to invoke this function.
let us know webdynpro abap could serve this purpose.
thanks in advance,
Madhu_1980

the browser window should be closed
you can use an exit plug in your WDA App and provide a little javascript in the SICF-node of your app, that closes the window
or should display a message "the FM is invoked, you can close this window"
Simply use a TextView UIElement on your default view
Kind regards
Andreas

Open URL Link in new browser window

Can someone please help me? I've tried to use code as if I were using Dreamweaver without any luck(i.e. blank target).
Is there a way to make the url in the PDF open a new browser windows once clicked? Hopefully this is an easy fix! Thanks in advance!

Jono, if you are still out there. I am also having trouble with this function. The button works just fine, but it does not open another browser window. I am trying to keep my pdf open, and send them to a url. That way they can come back to the form. Like you would with the target="_blank" function in javascript.
What am i doing wrong? I have tried opening the script editor, but I am not sure what to do there. So I put the same as you did on your form, no effect. I put target="_blank" and set it to javascript on just about every option. I have tried to go into the code on the xml source tab, no luck anywhere. I have tried to just use a text field, no luck.
Seems like everything I have tried has no effect.
Hopefully you can tell me it is something simple...
Thanks in advance.

Open url in a new browser via a button

I have created a button within a region and set request='go'. I then have a branch that when request='go', it branches to a url. Is there a way to open a new window when it branches to that url? Basically, I'm trying to open a new browser to go to a specified url when a button is clicked.

Yes no problem,
call an javscript function, which open the new window. that function can get as parameter the item value (eg. the URl text)
function callMyPopupTest(url)
w = open(url,"winLov","Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=1100,height=350");
if (w.opener == null) w.opener = self;
w.focus();
this should work
In this excample the URL is static for the button.
If not you have to solve the problem inside the javscript function with getting the value of the item (the url text)
document.getElementById('P21_URL').value;
for that the javascript function parameter has to be the id(eg. name: P21_URL).
hope that helps

Open URL in a new browser from a JSF backing bean

I want to use commandButton action in jsf to launch a new browser instead of using commandLink.
How do you launch url in a new browser window by firing up a method in backing bean?
So far I am able to launch a URL within the same browser window. Here is my code:
In jsp file:
<h:commandButton rendered="#{openDataList.valueModifiable}" value="link" action="#{openDataList.link}" />
In backing bean:
public void link()
     try{
     FacesContext faces = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
     faces.responseComplete();
     ExternalContext context = faces.getExternalContext();
     context.redirect("http://www....");      }
     catch(java.io.IOException e)
...

with a commandButton i dont belive you can
well there are ways you can use javascript window.open
or you can use a commanLink ans set the target
but from my understanding there is no way to open a new browser from the backing beans ( this is because this is a client function and your backing beans are on the sever )

Open URL from Java in a new browser tab

Hi OTN,
Surprisingly can't find the implimintation.
In an ADF managed bean I retrieve String url. I need to open a new browser tab with this url.
Found this thread Open a url in a new window in the backing bean which shows using javascript "service.addScript(facesContext, "window.open(http://www.google.coml)");".
But in my case in doesn't work. The code is executed, but nothing happens. Maybe because the bean is called from a taskflow inline popup.
ADF 11.1.1.4
Thanks.

Well, I'm afraid that is not an option.
The goButton is in a table row. There are lots of rows so if I use EL for Destination attribute the URL would be retrieved for each of rows.
The method of URL retreiving is heavyweight operation which includes calling plsql functions, working with strings and others. So if I do it for each table row my application hungs and then I receive an exception of CPU usage.
That's why I switched to normal commandButton witch actionListener which retrieves url on click - only once. So I need to open URL from Java.

Why do we use open URL in default browser function? What are the uses of it?

Why do we use "open URL in default browser" function? What are the uses of it?

Okay.
So can we keep a web button to access the www.ni.com ? So that web site opens only when button pressed?
P.S I,m a newbie.
Yes, you can also, e.g. include a help file or manual as html and open that in the browser.

Flash cs4 mac - Error opening URL '/:Users:someting.swf' - Not a "loading external content" problem

Hello.
I am having a weird problem when trying to test a movie or publish preview -> flash on mac with Leopard os.
The result is a blank movie with the usuall "movie not loaded" if u right click on it and the output returns the "Error opening URL 'the path of the swf here'.
This has nothing to do with loading external files or something like that. It happens even in blank movies and it gives the same error if I try to open a swf from flash ide.
I can publish the project or export the movie with no problem at all.
I can preview the movie in html. I can run all the swf files in my hard disk, network, usb stick, dvd etc., but when I try to open any of these files from flash ide I got that stupid error.
Its not something that stops me from working in flash ide but its slow to export movie any time I want to test it.
Things that I've tried so far but nothing worked:
Update the flash cs4 to the latest version
Update the flash players
Restored the release flash player as default player (I am using as default the debug player)
Cleared the preferences
Move the flash cs4 folder to another location in hd
Saved the fla document first before testing the movie (in different places with or without spaces in document name or folder)
Give read & write permissions for everyone for flash.app, players and for fla files when saved first before test movie
Unistall and install the application 3-4 times.
Test every as version just in case.
Also I've checked the folders when testing movie and I can see that it creates an swf file, which I can run it outside flash ide (the one that the flash ide player cannot load) with no problem.
The mac os has the default set up as it came. Nothing chnaged in permissions or security settings.
Thanx in advance.

In this particular example I am using this code to start the
xml file load:
// now load the XML file that contains the content strings
var sXMLFile:String = "xml/home.xml";
var xmlContent:XML = new XML();
xmlContent.ignoreWhite = true;
xmlContent.onLoad = onXMLLoadComplete;
xmlContent.load( sXMLFile );
But I don’t think the code is the problem here . This
happens on every file I load when I am using a relative path to the
content, regardless of how I load the content (XML object,
loadMovie, MovieClipLoader, etc…) and the same code executes
perfectly on every other machine in the office(Mac and PC).
I’m more concerned with the semi-colons and .swf filename
that Flash is putting into my relative path on the error message.
Is that normal?

Cs4 opens cs3 files with errors

Here's a big heads up for anyone considering upgrading to cs4 - don't! I've been working on a cs3 project and decided to upgrade to cs4 for the extras in the 3D toolset. All the Adobe propoganda implies this can be achieved no problem, as did soemone on telephone tech support. Perhaps I didn't clearly ask 'can I open my cs3 file in cs4'. I can BUT the clips are very much 'out of synch. I'll lick my wounds and go back to finishing in cs3 but don't purchase cs4 if you think you can seamless import your sc3 project. Because it seems you very much can not!

Dennis,
Many thanks.

Subject: Premiere Pro cs4 opens cs3 files with errors
Jarrod,
As I've stated here in this forum, we're trying to transition Adobe technical support to a new organization and providing the best support we can to our customers. That being said, it is a long and sometimes painful process, which is why I am here on the forums at times to lend some support. This doesn't help you and you might not even care so...
Here's a couple of suggestions:
1. make sure your software is updated (Premiere Pro 4.2.1) by going to help>updates
2. clear your prefs - http://blogs.adobe.com/genesisproject/2009/11/having_weird_behavior_with_an.html
3. try importing (ctrl-I) a CS3 project into CS4
Try these things and let me know how you make out. Also, it would be very helpful if you told us about your system and the specs. I've posted about the importance of 64-bit and lots of memory many times. You can find one link here: http://blogs.adobe.com/genesisproject/2009/03/64_bit_os_and_adobe_products.html
The future of Premiere Pro is 64-bit only: http://blogs.adobe.com/genesisproject/2009/10/its_official_64bit_is_the_futu.html
Beyond that if you'd like me to look into your case, please post your case # here or in a private message to me and I'll gladly look at it.
I sense your frustration and its understandable - give us a chance to help you.

Open URL in default Browser java.awt.Desktop was working...

I downloaded Net Beans 6.5 with JavaFX 1 and now java.awt.Desktop isn't even an option for the imports, is there an alternative method to open URLs from my application?

No, you aren't wrong.
It's, and I mean this with all due respect, idiotic.
I found some code on the net that does the same thing:
http://www.centerkey.com/java/browser/
Just one class, very simple.
But I really would like java.awt.Desktop to work, I want the system tray integration stuff.
Questions about getting Java 1.6 compatibility (the reason why the import doesn't work) go unanswered. It seems there is some hard coded -target 1.5 in some part of the javafx compiler. I can't figure out how to change it.

Bug report: on LabVIEW 2011 SP1 and Windows 8 'Open URL in default browser.vi'

Dear colleagues,
Here is a bug report.
Culprit: 'Open URL in default browser.vi'.
System: Windows 8, Professional. LabVIEW 2011 SP1.
Abnormal behaviour and steps to reproduce:
Above mentioned VI doesn't work when LabVIEW was started with administrator privilegies. And it works as expected when LabVIEW running in normal (non-administrator) mode.
Looking forward to see this fixed.
Best regards,
Igor Titov.

3.6.13 OS MAC 10.6.6 - cannot open url within Mail with Firefox as default browser

new iMac (March '10) - no problem til last week - as above - when
Firefox is my default browser cannot open url's form within Mail.
OK when I change over to Safari - but going back to Firefox same issue.
Firefox browser opens but the page does not load....
any suggestions?

I have the same issue. One interesting piece of info is if you quit FireFox (go to dock > right click on firefox icon > quit) Mail will then launch the link into FireFox properly. Somehow though users actions must cause it to fail again. My wife uses our iMac more than I do for email, so I haven't been able to re-create what she is doing to lose the Mail > Firefox functionality. Almost sounds like an OS X bug??

Added URL in Static Text To Open in New Browser Page

Hi to all,
We have added a static text with a url, to open in a new browser page. The url works as it opens in the current browser. But we would like to open in new browser page.
we used a similar notation like the following in the static text:
href=www.oracle.com
target="_blank">Oracle</a>
but this does not open in new browser.
target="_blank" tag should open in new browser
Does anyone have an idea what maybe happening.

purposely left out <a tag from reference....as in my post....only the link was coming about.

Introduce a "target=blank" into the HTML code!

Open URL in default browser -- doesn't

I'm trying to open up my help files (located on the computer) from within LabView and get the attached error in the JPEG. Anyone know how to fix this?

Hi Dan,
Thanks for posting the screenshot...I see what the problem is. You are trying to wire a path to the Open URL VI as a string. When this VI receives a string input, it assumes the string contains a URL...if the VI receives a path input, it assumes the string contains an absolute path to an HTML file on disk...it looks like this is the functionality you need. Here is a screenshot of how I think your VI should work:
See how the VI is accepting a path input now instead of a string input? With the path input, it does not try to escape space characters like it would with a URL string.
Hope this helps,
-D
