FaceBook badge opens in a new window after reload

If a website has a FaceBook badge (like the one I have with faces at BalticGamers.com) after restarting FF4, the FB badge Would open in a new window - really weird FF action :-/
That's every time you would restart FF4.

I just want to clarify, that in latest FF3 (3.6 most likely) I didn't notice such behavior. Also, I was trying this while being longed in to my Wordpress user acc. If that may be important.

Open Link in New Window creates an invisible window (visible after restarting).

When I use the right mouse button menu to Open Link in New Window from a web page it creates an invisible window. That is, I cannot see the window but it is listed in the Firefox Window menu. This newly opened window cannot be selected either by mouse or from the Window menu. However, if I quit and restart Firefox the new window appears as 0 pixels wide (i.e., a 1 pixel wide vertical line) and I can select it (by mouse or Window menu) and zoom it from the Window menu. After zooming I can operate on the window normally.

Get Firebug and inspect the element. You'll see that it actually is this:
onclick="javascript:saw.runThis
URL('saw.dll?PortalProperties&_scid=To2OnvCVXpY&PortalPath=/shared/paint/_portal/PoC\x2520FINS&Done=ManagePortals\x2526Done\x253dAdmin');return false" href="javascript:void(null)" FF doesn't even give you the "Open..." options and all IE versions as of 7 show them but actually don't do anything when you invoke them.

Firefox 4 stops opening new windows after browser window dragged to second display

Firefox 4 stops opening new windows after browser window dragged to second display. It's weird. Behavior is fine until I drag any browser window to the attached second display, and after this point it stops opening new windows but will still open new tabs in the same window. Restart fixes it until I drag the window back to the second display.
"Show all bookmarks" stops working too--won't open a new window.
This is after clean reinstall with total deletion of any Firefox/Mozilla folders and the previously installed app and a restart of the computer.
Mac OS X 10.6.7
Firefox 4

Pretty sure this is either:
'''Bug 644733'''
or
'''Bug 609405'''
(...and they may be reporting the same thing.)

BSP code to open new page in new window after button click

Hi expert,
I have a requirement to write a BSP code to open new page in new window after button click. I have done the same for opening in same window but not for opening in new window.
Can you please help me out with the code in which the page opens in new window and the menubar & Addressbar is displayed in hide mode.

Hi,
To add more with Anubhav...
onClientClick = "javascript:window.open( 'pop.htm' ) "
You can create a pop.htm page, and call the same in another page using the above code.
Refer standard BSP examples, SBSPEXT_HTMLB, SBSPEXT_PHTMLB, SBSPEXT_XHTMLB. You can run the default.htm pages and see what way you want to design your BSP.
Thanks,
Sreekanth

When I click images or links that should automatically open in a new window, instead a new blank window opens.

For some time now and after firefox has automatically been updated a few times, I click on images or links which are supposed to open in a new window automatically. A new window opens but it is blank with no toolbars, just an adress bar with nothnig in it.

mha007, Thank you. I walked through your suggested solutions and finally disabled all add-ons and restarted them one by one. The culprit seems to be ViewSourceWith 0.8.11. Interestingly when it is enabled I had to go to TaskManager to force Firefox to quit.
Maybe this information will help others. I don't know if the cache clearing etc helped but I would suggest that others start but Bringing up Firefox in Safe Mode (hold shift when you select the icon), disable all add-ons and then start them one by one.
Of course if you have ViewSourceWith maybe you should just disable it first rather than go through the tedium of restarting each add-on separately. To get to the add-ons when it won't open from the toolbar type about:addons in the address area.

When I have 4 or 5 tabs open, selecting one of them often forces that tab to open as a new window and close in the original window

FF 32.0.1. Moving between tabs that are already open, clicking on one which I have opened before forces it to close and open as a new window, which is a real pain. It seems to happen when I have 4 or 5 open tabs, rather than 2 or 3.
This has only been happening in the last week, after a clean Windows reinstall.
I've searched and found lots of people have problems with new windows opening when they just want a new tab, but this seems to be about opening fresh tabs rather than returning to one that's already open, so I can't find the same problem as I describe.

This can happen if you drag a tab slightly down in the browser window while clicking.
Firefox has a feature called tear-off tabs
You can detach a tab from the current window and open it in a new window by dragging a tab in the browser window.
You can also do this via the right-click context menu of a tab: Move to New Window
You can drag that tab back to the tab bar in the original window to undo that detaching.

Using firefox 14.0.1. Loading a link using right-click and "Open Link In New Window", results in new window opening but address bar does not show URL..

Using firefox 14.0.1. Loading a link using right-click and "Open Link In New Window", results in new window opening but address bar does not show URL. However, if I right click on a link and select "Open Link In New Tab", the Tab shows URL in address bar. So it's working when it's a New Tab but not a New Window.

JSF app - open report in new Window - via JSP?

I have been reading through this forum but no one has done quite what I am trying so I thought I'd post my own version of this problem.
The web app I'm working on is basically a report generator. Data is formatted via XSLT to .html files - that part works great. The problem is getting the app to open this new HTML file in a new window. I want to get this working with little or no JavaScript.
startReport.jsp (a JSF file) is the form that validates the user input. The sole h:commandButton (I do NOT want a link) works fine sending the form and JSF returns its errors or mine (if the criteria results in nothing) as it should; the action method returns "failure" so the page stays the same.
But when the action method returns "success" the JSF navigation-rule is setup to route to showReportFile.jsp (which is NOT a JSF file). This JSP is very simple:
<%@ page import="java.io.File" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.PrintWriter" %>
<%@ page import="java.io.FileReader" %>
<%@ page import="com.logipath.gict.cts.reporting.client.ReportClient" %>
<%@ page language="java" contentType="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" pageEncoding="ISO-8859-1" %>
<jsp:useBean id="reportClient" scope="session" class="com.logipath.gict.cts.reporting.client.ReportClient" />
<%
String fileName = reportClient.getReportOutputFile();
PrintWriter writer = response.getWriter();
char[] buffer = new char[1024];
FileReader reader = new FileReader(fileName);
int numRead = reader.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
while ( numRead != -1 ) {
writer.write(buffer, 0, numRead);
numRead = reader.read(buffer, 0, buffer.length);
reader.close();
writer.close();
File file = new File(fileName);
file.delete();
%>This works believe it or not. If I put the target="_blank" on the form tag in the startReport.jsp it even opens in a new window. Great. But with that attribute on the form element, if the page comes back in error - it shows up in a new window (as it is apt to do given the attiribute).
Ok, the h:commandButton tag's target attribute is ignored. Fine. There has to be a way to do this but I just cannot figure it out and I'm no JSP expert.
What I think will work is this. Since my report beans create HTML files, I've created a session bean called "currentReportBean" which holds a single attribute - the name of the HTML file to display. (This is how the JSP above works.)
What I need to know now *(this is the question part)* is how can I flush the render response of my JSF life cycle, trigger the opening of this JSP in a new window, the restart the JSF life cycle at the begining so the "parent" page repaints normally? The JSP isn't part of the JSF page flow so I there's no "going back" or "refresh" to worry about. I would like to take the showReportFile.jsp file out of the navigation files altogether.
I know this topic has been worked on at length, but not quite this way. Any help is greatly appreciated.

But now I'm confused. JS cannot access server-based session values. How is it going to know to open the page? A cookie?Write the value to a JS variable when you render the page.

Open Hyperlink in New Window

I have created an interactive pdf in Indesign. It contains hyperlinks to destinations in a second pdf file. I would like the hyperlinks to open the second pdf file in a new window. Is there a way to do this either in Indesign or Adobe Professional?
I see that it is possible in Acrobat if the docements were just to files but I am using them on a web server.
Thank you for your help.

Hi George -
Thanks for your reply. I would be happy if it would open in either a new browser window or a new Acrobat/Reader window. The first file is a large file and the links are to a suppporting much smaller file. I would like the first file to stay open so that it doesn't have to keep reloading and so that the user doesn't have to use the "back" button. (My guess is that that the user is going to close the window after clicking the link, expecting that it would open in a new window, and get very frustrated reopening the first file)
What type of links have you set up, exactly (web link, open file, go to page in another PDF, etc.)?
I created the links while the file was still in InDesign - they are hyperlinks to a URL - and the URL is a destination in another pdf file.
The final product - both documents - will be posted on a web server.
Before posting the files to the web I was successful in setting up the links to open in a new window (go to a destination in another file). But once placed on the server this no longer works.
Thank you again,
Denise

Open link in new window? Anyone figured it out yet?

I have tried looking over some past topics concerning this issue, but only found a few and it appears that it wasn't figure out on how to open a link in a new window. I started creating a web portfolio for me, and I have some videos I wish to open in a new window instead of just having them on one of the pages. I've tried viewing the page source in firefox, copied the code, and inserted the target="_blank" code after the hyperlink, but after I do that it messes up the code somehow and when i try to open the html page in firefox all I see is the code. Has anyone else figured this out?

Well, I found a website that showed me how to do it... If anyone else needs it then here it is: http://www.rowan-cottage.co.uk/Site/Target_Blank.html#Summary

Open Link in New Window fails

It seems after a while, now Firefox 4.0.1 has a issue with the "Open Link In New Window" option fails to load the web page. It opens the new window, but does not load the web page that you click on. Instead it opens a new window with a blank tab.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
*https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

Every time I try to open a new tab, it open a whole new window and i am ending up with 6 or 7 unmanagable things, please help.

every time I try to open a new tab, it opens a whole new window, which makes what I use firefox for completely unmanagable. I also updated it the other day and all the changes I made are gone!
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== this evening

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).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Since I upgraded to firefox 8, I get this error window that pops up says something about java. My tabs flicker or flash, the tabs will close and open in a new window then everything stops. Then firefox does not respond. When I get this error message, I have to close all tabs wait a few seconds then open it back up it will work for a little while and then do the same thing. I have disabled plug-ins that I do not use, I have cleared my cache and cookies, I am not happy at all with this new version. I waited a while before updating. The first time I was going to update, firefox would not let me keep my anti-virus plug-in. PLEASE HELP

Firefox 15.0.1 stops responding (100% cpu) when a link opens in a new window.

Whenever I click a link that is designed to open in a new window Firefox goes straight to 100% cpu usage and I have to go through the Windows "end now" sequence to close the program. I've tried opening one of the links in a new window but I think it was done in java not html (not sure if all the links are java when this happens as that's the only one I've tested). Not sure what details someone might need but this is on my Mom's older laptop with Windows XP Media Center Edition Ver. 2002 Service Pack 2. Hmmm just saw the SP2 will try to update and see what that does though I don't think that's the issue.

So what is happening or not happening now ? The problem computer is your Moms, but I assume your own computer works ok. Have you tried that on the same internet connection as your Mom uses & visiting the same sites?
Also try Internet Explorer. If that is also very slow the problem may not lie with Firefox.
I suggest you try the Firefox Reset feature on your Mom's computer,
* BUT first of all
**make a note of the software extensions that are in use, and bookmark their download and support sites.
** back up the Firefox profile [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* follow the instructions in the following article, after reading the caution about what will be lost
