Custom UICommand Opening in a New Window

I have followed the Simple One Step Screenflow tutorial but I have a question as to how I can open the screens in a new window?
For example, if I was to click "My Button", I would like the screenflow to open in a new window instead of within the actual iView.
Is there a good way to do this?
Thanks.

How to open page in new window while handling event on link.

Hi all
I have a requirement where page should be opened in new window when I click on link.My item style is 'link'.Despite of mentioning target frame _blank, I m not able to open it in new window.I m handling event by setting Action Type as fireAction.I hope this might be the reason because of that this happened. Can somebody suggest some solution so that I can open it in new window.
Thanks,
Bhupendra

Hi ,
though i am not able to answer, i can get some answer for my question.
How the link item is handled thru the ActionType and event in the Client Action..?
The reason for this question is that we are trying to extend the customer search page in AR - EBSR12. there the search result page has the Account Name as a link and the Action event says viewAccountName and the action type says firePartialAction. I am trying to understand this so that i can add more parameters to the link so that i can use them in the target page of the link..
Any help is appreciated..
Thanks

Open link in new window Webapps

Hi All,
I wonder if you can help.
I have created a directory site, with web apps.
When you get to the listings page it has a link to there website but the links do not open in the same window.]
A link to a page is here so you can see what I mean
Air Con Repair and Service A1B1C1
The line of code for the link is "<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #0070c0;"><a href="http://" target="_blank">{tag_web address}</a></span><br />"
Which from my research should mean it opens in a new window.
Has anyone got any advice?
Cheers
Duncan

Hi Duncan,
Tag Web address - You use the url custom field. Dont - Delete that and remake it.
That renders its own link - {tag_web address} and if you view your html markup on your rendered site you will see you have two split anchors, a blank one with your target and the BC rendered one. Use a custom text field and paste the links in. Then you can form you code as you have above.

Open URL in new window

Hi folks,
I am working on WAD3.5 where in I have created several links to open either WEBGUI i.e to open various customized TCODES in SAP-Bi or other queries. BAsicaly its a work bench sort of thing from where we can access various tools developed for client. I am using below mentioned HTML code:
<TD class=SAPBEXBtnStd vAlign=top>
      <DIV style="HEIGHT: 20px"><A
      href="/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui?~transaction=ZBI_AUTOMATION_TOOL"><B><FONT
      face=Verdana color=#000080>BI Automation Tool</B></FONT>
    </A></FONT></DIV></TD>
where ZBI_AUTOMATION_TOOL is a customized TCODE. Issue is whenever i click on the link it opens the WEBGUI in same screen and when i click back the page expires. I want to open the URL in new window.
Please help me by providing the exact syntax. It would help to resolve my issue. I have tried couple of things but they are not working.
Thanks

There is a parameter on the web template that should be set..
it is
Open dialogs in new window - set this to either automatic or "Open Window X"
or add this to your template properties list:
<param name="ENABLE_OPEN_WINDOW" value="X"/>

Opening page in new window on click of link in Global button bar section

Hi,
I have created a custom global link to appear alongside Home, Logout links. The requirement is to open a page in a new window when i click on the custom global link. Please let me know how to achieve this functionality.
Thanks,

VG,
I think you should be able to open in a new window using the javascript in the function defn,
please check the blog http://mukx.blogspot.com/2007/07/javascript-in-oa-framework.html and try it out.
Let me know if you are not able to achieve the same.

Search results when accessed always opens in a new window

Hi,
We are using WPC to develop web pages. We have created a Header component that contains the
search option and embedded in the framework so that it is available in all the web pages. An iview has
been created using the Header. The issue we are facing is that whenever the 'Search' button available
on the header is clicked the search results are launched in NEW window rather than within the current
window.
We have made sure that the iView Properties of the Header for "Launch in New Window" options is set
to - "Display in Portal Content Area". But still No luck.
I have also checked for the workprotect mode and it looks fine. Any pointers as to how the search
results can be displayed within the current active window rather than opening in a NEW window? Let me
know if I am missing anything.
We use the EPCM.doNavigate(advancedSearchURL) to launch the search results.

Hi Vijaya
You would have to develop your own property renderer that sets the target to parent instead of blank, and create a property based upon the property renderer, and reference this property in the search result layout set.
The desired functionality cannot be obtained through "normal customization" even though some of the iview properties indicates that.
You can search for the documentation with regards to how to create a custom property renderer.
Best regards,

When I click to open anything I get a box saying open link in new window, open link in new tab, download linked file etc. When I go to close anything I get hide toolbar, customize toolbar. It takes 3-5 clicks and it will finally close.

In Firefox Options / Privacy be sure "Remember download history" is checked. To see all of the options on that panel, "Firefox will" must be set to "Use custom settings for history".
To find your OS information, on your Windows desktop, right-click the My Computer icon, choose Properties, under System on that small window is info about your OS.

Transaction launcher: open URL in new window

Dear all,
I know many threads have already been posted about "stateful URL" created with transaction launcher, that open a new browser window AND navigate to an empty screen with the following text (which is more than useless):
"The requested page has been opened in a new window, please press back button to go back to the last page."
Carsteen gave some useful hints already in the following thread:
Transaction Launcher in a new window
But maybe someone found something new since then... At the moment I'm thinking about "simulating" a clic on the BACK button (like mentioned in this useless message), with something like :
DATA:
history TYPE REF TO if_bsp_wd_history_manager_disp.
history = view_manager->get_history_manager_display( ).
history->go_back( ).
Any better idea ?
Thanks & regards,
Nicolas Busson.

Hi Nicolas !
How are you? :-)
I assume that since then you have found a way to fix your issue, but as the post is not answered I can tell you that SAP has taken into account this point in SAP 702 EHP1, with a new attribute in the customizing of the transaction launcher called "Keep Work area" :
Keep Work Area When Opening Launch Transaction in New Window
This indicator defines whether the work area content is kept when you open a launch transaction in a new window.
Use
If this indicator is not set and a launch transaction opens in a new window, then the main window loads the base page of the transaction launcher into the work area.
If this indicator is set and a launch transaction opens in a new window, then the main window keeps its current content in the work area.
Dependencies
This indicator is only evaluated if you have also set the indicator for using a new window.

Custom Buttons launch URL in new window

How can one get the Custom Buttons in a final chm help file
to launch the URL in a new window. When a supplimentary web page is
launched inside the chm using a custom button on the navigation
pane, it doesn't fit properly. Is there any way to launch the URL
in a new window?
Can I include some kind of HTML coding in the URL itself? If
so, what syntax?
The only options Robohelp gives you is entering the label and
URL

Deet,
It sounds like you're posting a RoboHelp HTML Help question
in the RoboHelp for Word Forum by mistake.
However, the answer is "No." The Custom Buttons can't open in
a new window like the links in topics do.
If you want a button to open in a new window, you have to use
a third-party product to make your own custom button. For more
information, see Pete Lees' response to a similar question in this

Force iView to open in a new window when using NavigationTarget

Scenario - Portal Version 6.0 - NW2004 SP16 - WAS 6.40
A Custom iView is used to gain access to an application running outside of the portal. The user's credentails to the target application are recorded in the portal's UME via user mapping.
I want a user to be able to click a hyperlink to this iView that has been embedded in an email, and have the user gain access to the target application by 'going via the portal'. The url that I use is of the form:
http //<my_portal_server>/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=navurl://49a8add355f836061e6279f389cdc72e&open=/page&id=100&proc=10067&flag=1
This is working, the user is first taken to the portal's login page, and upon successful login to the SAP portal, user is then directed to the target iView, and is logged in automatically to the target application, and able to use the target application.
>BUT EVEN though the iveiw is configured to open in a new window it does not. It always opens in the main content area, and it always opens in this area in a height of about 40 pixels. The iView properties are set to FULLPAGE.
>If I invoke this iView using the portal's standard built in navigation, it does open in a new window
>It just won't open in a new window when using direct URL to the iView WHY?
How can I get the target iView to open in a new window under all circumstances?
Do I need to pass more information in the URL?
Are there a standard list of URL parameters somewhere that influence the behaviour of the NavigationTarget? I have seen reference to 'context', 'mode' etc but can't find a list of valid parameters?

Links open with a new window help

I'm trying make my links on my website open with a new window. This way the customer won't have to find his way back to the site. I found this thread-http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=339861
It looks to be pretty helpful but I can't figure out how to edit the html file after I published it. Any suggestions?

Welcome ny854
You might want to try using an html editor like Taco HTML Edit to open html files, I find it makes them much easier to read.
Your file is viewing as a web page because Safari is probably set as the default app to open html files.
What you need to do is press the "ctrl" key when you click on the file in your iDisk, this will give you a menu, choose Open With, then choose the app that you want to open the file with from the list that you see. If you use text edit (launch the app, go to Text Edit > Preferences > Click Open and Save > Check “Ignore rich text commands in html files”).

When clicking on links that open in a new window, the links don't open and Firefox freezes in a way. I can navigate the page I am on but cannot click to open a new tab or bookmark.

When navigating the internet, if I come across a web page that has a link to open a picture or program in a new window, if I click on it, it does not open. Firefox immediately looses functionality in that I cannot open a new tab with the mouse wheel, right click to open a new tab, or use my bookmarks in either the drop down or toolbar to navigate away. I can usually still navigate the page that I am on, for example, (https://loanconsolidation.ed.gov/AppEntry/apply-online/appindex.jsp), when it freezes I cannot click on any of the content at the center of the page but I can still use the links from the list on the far left. For an example of the pictures, (http://www.insect-sale.com/), if you click on "New Arrivals" at the top of the page it takes you to a list of products that can only be viewed by clicking on them. Usually a picture of the item would open in a small window but it does not and Firefox freezes. This has also happen when I try a view a degree audit on a school's website where a program would usually open in a new window. The only thing I have been able to find that still functions properly when this happens is the home page button. I can click on it or use the wheel to open it in a tab just fine, but if I try and go anywhere else I cannot. The only way I can get Firefox back to normal is to use the Task Manager and end the process. Another thing I have noticed, that may or may not be related; is that my Norton Internet Security toolbar, that should show up below the bookmarks toolbar and above the tabs, only shows up about 1 out of every 10 times I open Firefox. Some days it doesn't show up at all. If it does show up and I log into Identity Safe, the autofill for the programed website works, even if the toolbar doesn't show up the next time I open Firefox.

Go to Tools->Options->Apps
Here you should see two columns: Content Type on the left, Actions on the right.
Find and select excel spreadsheet or any other content type in the left column. There should be a corresponding action in the right column. What is it? You can use the drop-down list to select the option you want:
Always Ask - Firefox will ask each time: What do you want to do with this file?
Save file - Firefox will save this file to your computer
Use - Firefox will give this file to the program to open it
In case of saving, Firefox will either prompt you every time where you want the file to be saved, or save it to the default location. It depends on the preference in
Tools->Options->General->Download

When I open a new link or bookmark I want it to open in a new window not a slew of tabs so I can see which sites I have open.

I'm sorry if I'm not using the correct terminology. When I open a new window or a link I want it to open a whole new window so I have 500 open FireFox tabs in my taskbar if I open that many windows. I do not like having everything open in one window. Used to be I could find how to undo that but you changed everything on me and now only rocket scientists can use your application. If Chrome and Internet Explorer weren't so ridiculous, I would change. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.

This didn't help me at all. I want a separate window to open each time I open a new tab or bookmark. Currently when I open a new link it just adds a tab to the window already open so from my non-technie point of view, I only have one window open and have to go up top to see what is open vs. being able to look below in my taskbar and see what I have open.

Target for a .pdf with the link target _blank does not open in a new window.

I have a simple html document with links to .pdf documents all set to _blank but only one opens in a new window. The others open as _self. Changing the target doesn't seem to make a difference.
Any idea as to why that is happening?

The Template .dwt file is only used locally by DW itself, there's no reason to upload it to the server unless you intend to share it with someone. You have to upload each individual page that the Template updates, every time you update the template and propagate that change across the child pages.
It would probably be better to use a server side include. That way, you could update one file then upload it and all of your pages would automatically carry that update...

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);
