Error when link opens new window

I have the community projects portlet on the community home page, and when a user clicks on one of the projects, the project opens, but the base window turns into "Page not found". When I do the same thing as admin, it does not do this. Any ideas? Thanks.

F.,
We have been seeing some strange issues with new windows, sessions, etc. with IE8 over the last few weeks (particularly). Do not have any definitive answers yet but may have something to do with the IE security fixes that came out recently. If you (or your users -- not sure what role you have) have the ability to log a service request I would suggest doing so to allow us to better troubleshoot and track these issues.
I will come back and update this thread when we have something more definitive. Right now we are trying to catalog the various behaviors we are seeing and determine what might be going on.
Best regards,

Links opening new Windows

Is there a global setting that controls whether links in Portal
open new IE Windows. I know how to edit this attibute for URL
items in content areas, but our portal pages and portlet links
have recently began to open new windows without any explanation.

iBod:
Thanks! That did indeed solve the problem. I knew the solution was simple, I just couldn't find the right "Preference" to adjust. It is certainly non-intuitive to have it under the "Tabs" preference panel -- I must have looked right at it and dismissed it as not relevant to my problem. I have now marked this question as "Solved."
Mulder:
I have given tabs a try -- many times. It just isn't my style. Now with this preference properly adjusted, I vastly prefer using windows-style browsing. Also, I can scroll through all the open windows in a breeze using "Command-tilde (~)", which is like riffling the pages of a magazine. Very convenient. Another problem with tabs is that all open pages have a tab visible in the top window, which means that anyone seeing the screen can see the names of all currently open Web pages. In my work environment, that is not acceptable -- I only want the top window to be visible at any given time, as it would be a security issue if random passersby walking behind my work area could see exactly which windows I have open at a particular time. In any case, I marked your answer as "Helpful" as well, since the question was already "Solved" by iBod's answer, which was posted first here chronologically.

When I open new window browser has inverted color scheme and no window title.

When I open 1st window in FF top of the page looks usual - like this http://imagestun.com/hosting/kartinki/ff1.jpg
But when I try to open something in a new window, this new window has strange color scheme at the top and no title, like this
http://imagestun.com/hosting/kartinki/ff2.jpg
If I switch from window mode to full screen mode and vice versa everything gets to look normal.
I've used Classic Theme Reestorer addon, but the same problem occurs when this addon is uninstalled. Restaring computer, reinstalling firefox etc didn't help, I still get these annoying white letters in the main menu when I try to open 2 or more firefox windows.
Is there any way to fix it?

Thanks, I followed your advice and disabled everyting then started turning addons one by one. The problem was caused by Hola Unblocker, now everything is ok.

List of Links, opening new window on click

Dear developers,
I'm Developing a solution in which I need to show a list of links and when you click opens a new window . Every name of the list have different link.
In conclusion, I want to show a list of links that when you click to open in a new window.
My solution:
1. I've implemented a Select One List associated with a valueChangeListener.
2. ValueChangeListener call ManageBean method, and in the method I calcule link
3. Using JavaScript inside ManageBeanMethod I open the new window.
It works well, but when I click on the same value valueChangeListener not call the method. As the value doesn't change, doesn't activate the valueChangeListener. I need to always call ManageBean method.
They know how you fix it from my implementation?+
There is a better solution? there is an especific component?+

Question about in-browser links opening new windows

Is there a plugin or setting which will force Safari to open all new windows as tabs? I know that there is a setting for that from other applications, but how do you force Safari to do that for itself? I'm getting sick of browsing for a half hour or so to find that I've got a dozen or so windows open. Yes, I know I can combine them all into one window, but why can't I set the browser to do that automatically?
I have the block pop-ups enabled as well. What I want is a plugin or setting that will always open in-browser links as new tabs(instead of new windows) without having to use command-click. Is there anything like that out there?

Hi Sailingmaster,
The only one I know of is Saft. It's shareware, but it comes with a ton of features. Also, Li Hao (developer) has done and continues to do a great job of keeping it up-to-date, and incorporating end-user suggestions. Highly recommended.

Links opening new window/tab

As far as I can remember before Safari 3, I could set it so that if I clicked on a link in an email it would NOT open it in a new tab OR Make a new window appear. I like it this way but now it seems in Safari 3 you only have the choice of a new tab or new window. Is there a way to have links from mail just keep one Safari window and load the pages from the links over each other without opening a new window? Am I remembering correctly that you could do this in previous versions of Safari?

You can override how links are opened via the browser.link.open_newwindow.override pref.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow
*1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
Use this for links opened via JavaScript.

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".

Why when I click on a link a new window opens instead of a tab, this is new

When I click on a link a new window opens instead of a new tab. This is new. I've gone into tools and checked my settings and nothing changes it. It annoys me.

This issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly. 
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Worst update ever! On my Vista everything is wrong! Back button never active; If I want open pages as new tab it opens new window; FF starts with blank page instead of Google; No url address shown on status bar when I move mouse arrow on the link etc

Worst update ever! On my Vista everything is wrong! Back button never active; If I want open pages as new tab it opens new window; FF starts with blank page instead of Google; No url address shown on status bar when I move mouse arrow on the link etc.. Please Help!

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Why, when right click on some link the options "OpenLink in New Tab" and "Open Link in New Window" are exchanged?

Dear friend, the problem is that there is exchange of something very useful from users an this break them habits! I'm not interested of forced using of tools! Of course it's good that there is a tool to solve my problem, but this action make me unhappy.
last words - this is the way of losing users.

When I click on a link, a new window opens but is blank and says "stopped" at the bottom

Happens on any website.eg-if I am looking for a quote on moneysupermarket.com and I lick on the required link, a new window will open but it will be blank and in the bottom left hand corner the word stopped appears

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.
See
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
There are other things that need attention.

The right-mouse-click dropdown on links in FF4.00 has swapped the positions of 'open link in new tab' & 'open link in new window'. This is infuriating as I keep opening windows when I want tabs. I want to swap back - how?

Please swap them back!

the user jay_ff shows how to do it using the Menu Editor Add-on
1. Install the Menu Editor add-on from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ .
2. After the installation, go to Firefox> add-ons (or simply use Ctrl+Shift+A)
3. Go to the Menu Editor "Options"
4. In the "Main context menu," simply grab the "Open link in New Tab" and place it below the "Open Link in New Window"
5. and Voila! You may also change other menu options if you want to!
I tried jay_ff method first and found that indeed changing the Main Context Menu did cause the hotlink context menu to change as well.
