Globally change hyperlinks to open in new window

Hi
I have imported a huge FrameMaker book which has about 30 hyperlinks to URLs spread across multiple topics.
So, is there a way I can globally configure all URLs to open in a new window after importing the book into RH? I did not use "_targe=blank" in FM hypertext as it was resulting in some formatting error whenever hyperlinks appeared with a custom FM Style.
I am using FM11 with RH10.

How does one use "target=blank" in the FrameMaker 11 hypertext marker syntax? I currently have a Hypertext tag, with the following contents:
message URL http://www.mylink.com target=blank
When I import this to RoboHelp 10 and generate HTML Help, I get a link of "http://www.mylink.com%20target=blank", which obviously isn't right!
Mind you, will target=blank even work in the standard Microsoft HTML Help viewer anyway?

When I try to follow a hyperlink, Firefox opens a new window that stays blank.; also I can't download a hyperlinked file.

I recently bought a laptop that is equipped with Windows 7. I needed new drivers for my Canon printer and was able to locate the new software on their website. When I tried to activate the hyperlink, Firefox opened a new window with the proper address in the "window". however the window stayed blenk. Similar actions with IE yielded desired results.
I got the same "dead end" when I tried to download a form from Mozilla; again IE worked fine.

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).

Does any version of InDesign let you set hyperlinks to open in new window?

I'm converting some InDesign books to pdf and epubs and my client wants the hyperlinks to open in new window when these files are viewed in browsers. so far no version I've tried has this capability.

It must be done in Acrobat. Ask in the Acrobat forums.

How do I change firefox to open a new window when I start it several times instead of opening a new tab when I want to go to a different location?

I want to go to several different websites at the same time. I want to compare the information on each site. I do not want to open a tab, I want a whole new window. How do I change firefox so it will open a new window instead of opening a new tab and then requesting the site I want to go to?

In Windows XP I am able to right click a link and get an option to open it as a new Firefox window
*'''tear off tabs'''
You will probably note tabs can be dragged along the tab toolbar, they also tear off. You can click a tab and drag it off the browser onto the Windows Desktop where it will open as a new window, or drag it on to another open browser window.
An alternative is to click the tab and drag it down, again it will then open in a new Window.

Hyperlink to open in new window on clicking via crystal client

Hi,
How to call hyperlink in new window via crystal client.
I have main report. In that ,for two-three columns, I have made the hyperlink and I want that when user click on that column, it should open in new window.
But I am unable to open the below link in new window.
Hyperlink code :
'http://epint1ent1.jpmorganchase.com/vps/docViewer?invoiceIndexKey='
&columnname
I am using crystal client XI R2.
Please let me know any solution.
Thanks in advance

Vishal,
In your Hyperlink add in the parameter for
sWindow=New
i.e. 'http://epint1ent1.jpmorganchase.com/vps/docViewer?sWindow=New&invoiceIndexKey='.....
You obviously need to complete the Hyperlink fully.
This should do the trick

Hyperlinks to open in new window?

I'm trying to set my external hyperlinks to open in a new
(browser) window but haven't had any luck. I thought that the
"Display in Browser" option when setting up the HTML Jump would do
this, but it still opens within the help window. Can anyone provide
instructions on how this can be done in RH for Word v7? Thanks in
advance...

Creating Hyperlinks that open a new window

Hi,
I'm creating a website for an art group I belong to.
On the member's gallery page - here - I have each artists name and a link to a website if they have one. I would like the link to open the site in a new window rather than directing the visitor away from the site (leave our site open in a window behind) But I don't see an option for that when I make the hyperlink. Is this possible? Or is this something that the development team should consider in future updates?
Thanks,
Elaine

Hi Elaine
You can enable the option for opening the page in new tab or page.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Hyperlink target - open on new window

Hello people
I edited one field's hyperlink property to point to an asp page. As I run this report into the internet, I want to open the page on a new browser window. In html I could simply add target="_blank" option, but I don't know how to do this in Crystal Reports.
Can anybody help me?
thanks
Fabio

Thanks to [this|DBMGui Information about old non existent databases|forums.sun.com] Sun forum topic, I changed my asp page and now it works fine:
instead of:
Dim objViewer
Set objViewer = CreateObject("CrystalReports.CrystalReportViewer")
objViewer.ProcessHttpRequest Request,Response,Session
now it is:
Dim objViewer
Set objViewer = CreateObject("CrystalReports.CrystalReportViewer")
dim lstrHTML
lstrHTML = objViewer.GetHtmlContent(Request, Response, Session)
lstrHTML = Replace(lstrHTML, "target=""_self""", "")
lstrHTML = Replace(lstrHTML, "sWindow=New""", "sWindow=New"" target=""_blank""")
Response.Write(lstrHTML)

Word hyperlinks converted to PDF-open in new window???

I currently use Word 2007 to build indexes with hyperlinks and convert to PDF using Adobe Professional 9. I know how to set my Adobe preferences so that hyperlinks open in a new window, but I want to set this on the document level for each index I create. I also know how to set each link within the final pdf to open in a new window (if I go through each and every link preference). I must create the hyperlinks in Word as there are many instances that my indexes change prior to distribution of the discs and I don't like having to duplicate, triplicate, etc. my linking process in Adobe as some of my indexes contain 300+ links. I only know of JavaScript but not enough to use with confidence... I want the hyperlinks to open in new windows (as that has always been my instructions to the end user) without the end user having to fumble around with their systems and settings. It has just been brought to my attention that my discs do not have that function set. Meaning, that what I view and test on my system is not the same as the end user. The hyperlinks open in the same window (dang it!!). I did see a JavaScript solution but keep getting an error (on line 2). Here is the JavaScript I found in the forum: app.openInPlace = false; //Opens cross-document links in separate windows.
So, I have muliple questions...
Is this sript the best way to accomplish the document level open in a new window function?
Is this script written correctly? (I did cut and paste this script within the brackets)
If I use the JavaScript and save, does that save in the Adobe application system or just on the document level? And then how do I delete if it doesn't work properly?
What other functions can you suggest I try?
Any suggestions would be helpful!

Where did you place that script, exactly?
It should work, there's probably just an error in how you added the text of the script. Try removing the comment so that there's only one line of code:
app.openInPlace = true;
Note that this changes the user preference, which is generally frowned upon, so you should endeavor to set it back to what it was in the first place when the document is closed. This would involve storing the value of this property when the document opens, change it if necessary, and restore it when the document closes. It also won't work for those users who have JavaScript disabled.
Unfortunately, link annotations are difficult to alter in an automated way given what's available in Acrobat. It would be possible with an Acrobat plug-in to make document-wide changes to all of the links, but I'm not aware of any that do this. You might want to search around.

When I use the shortcut to open a new window in safari (command N), I get a 404 error message from Google. How do I change where 'Command N' routes to?

When I use the shortcut to open a new window in safari (command N) on my Macbook Pro, I get a 404 error message from Google. How do I change where 'Command N' routes to?

It's not necessary to change the Command N keystroke..
From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, troubleshoot Safari extensions.
From the Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Extensions tab. Turn that OFF, quit and relaunch Safari to test.
If that helped, turn one extension on then quit and relaunch Safari to test until you find the incompatible extension then click uninstall.

When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. How can I resolve this?

Question
When I am NOT private browsing Firefox will not allow me to delete or change the website address in the location bar. My only remedy is to open a new window and search in google then click the link to that site through google. When I swap to private browsing firefox allows me to anter the website address directly into the location bar - but this is a slow [prcess to swap back and forth - also by dint of using private browsing I loose my website information.

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
You can middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the Home button on the Navigation toolbar to open the Home page in a new tab.
You can look at this extension to set which page to open in a new tab:
