How to have a hot spot open a small separate window

Hi everybody.
                    I'm trying to make a new website.  My old one (burrjohnson.com) is in bad need for an upgrade.  In my new website that I'm currently working on, I have a page that has a picture in the main div section. The picture is an image that shows 9 guitars.  I have made each guitar in the image into a hot spot.  I've created a seperate html page for each hotspot to go to that has a description of each guitar.  I want people to be able to click on each guitar in the image and have a window pop up (seperate smaller page) that has the description for that particular guitar.  With my old website, on the "gigs" page (the page where people could see where my band is playing) if you clicked on the images I placed on that page, (like a pictire of the club for that gig) it opened a seperate window containing the clubs website.  I accomplished this by putting the clubs website address in the "link" portion of the properties inspector for the image in question. It opened a seperate window because in the "link" window, the address for the clubs website was preceded by "javascript:openNewLgWindow".  so, for example, in the gigs page, at the top, there is an image under the info for our gig we did in Putnam Valley on november 5th.  It is a Putnam Valley picture, and if you click on it, it opens a seperate window with their website.  In the properties inspector for that image, the "link" window has the following in it: 
javascript:openNewLgWindow('http://www.pvpr.com/home.php?ID=ParkFacilities');
This opens a seperate window with their address in it. 
Now, with the new website page,  I want to have each hot spot surrounding each guitar open its respective info page, but putting the javascript part in front of the name of page does not work.   if I take out the javascript part, the hot spot will take you to the info page but it doesn't open a seperate window. 
Idealy what I hope I can do is just have a small window open when you click on the hot spot (because the content in the info pages are only about 4 inches by 4 inches
How can I do this??
Thank you in advance
Burr

Making a POP-UP window in Dreamweaver with the Behaviors Panel
=================================================
1.  Insert an image or type some text on your page.
2.  Select it and go to the Link Field in your Properties Panel.  Browse for the file or type the full URL (http://example.com).
3.  Go to the Behaviors Panel and hit the plus sign to add a new behavior.
4.  Select Open Browser Window from the list.
5.  Browse to file or type the URL (Yes, a 2nd time).
6.  Set the height, width and other optional attributes for your pop-up window. (See link below for details)
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/dreamweaver/cs/using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcd a9110b1f693f21-7b07a.html
7.  Hit OK.
8.  Verify that the behavior's trigger event is onClick.  If it's not, click the event box to show other trigger options.
9.  Go back to the Properties Panel and replace the first URL in the link field with javascript:() This makes the primary link into a null link.
Save your page and preview in browsers.
PS. It takes longer to explain all these steps than it does to do it.
Good luck,

  • How set up multiple homepages to open in a separate window (not a tab) when desired...

    I would like to setup and be able to click on a Firefox profile (I assume profile) or pass parameters to the firefox.exe and have firefox open about 6 separate windows (not tabs) set to different home pages.
    If I use the Pipe Symbol in Options, it will open separate tabs but also ause the probelm below which I also would like to solve.
    A lot of times I also want to run another instance of firefox by clicking on the Firefox icon in my quick launch tray and DO NOT want it to open up all of these sites again.
    How is this best achieved?
    In the past I just opened up each site individually in its own window.
    Thanks very much
    Peter

    You can create multiple shortcuts on the desktop and include the URL to the command line and use the -new-window switch to specify a new window.<br />
    You need to use the -new-window switch for each URL (-new-window URL1 -new-window URL2).<br />
    If the command line gets to long then you need to use a CMD file to store the full command line (start "" firefox.exe -new-window etc.).

    I have been a loyal customer for years and have a hot spot because internet options are very limited in our rural area.  I have stayed with 10G since the beginning.  Most months I don't use the 10G.  Verizon has no problem with me paying for Data I don't use.  This month my daughter comes home from College and she accidentally uses 24G.....14 over get blind sided with $140.00 in overages.  I called Verizon today......stopped in to the store today......My neighbor told me they waved charges for her one time.  Lots of charges.....But I'm am getting no help.  Not even an offer of a payment plan to help me out.  I went back just 6 months and I have over paid for 19G.....Seems like they would like to help out their loyal customers!!!!     Does anybody have any suggestions on how to deal with them?   We are not wealthy....or I would just pay this and walk away......

    There is a big misconception in what customers believe a cell carrier is obligated to do.
    You pay a set price to use up to that amount of xx data. It makes no difference if you use it to the paid limit or way under. Its like peace of mind when you don't have to worry about a data counter.
    Your daughter used the data, your plan is quite clear of what overage charges are. Why should or would Verizon wireless just forgive the charges because you are a customer? Your daughter used the data, get the money from her. That is the responsible thing to do.
    There is no "I have been a loyal customer so please remove the $120, or $250, or $2,000.00 since I did not mean to use it"
    Your electric company, or gas company or any other company does not remove valid charges. Why should Verizon wireless?
    Just pay the invoice and don't think you are being mistreated because Verizon is a business and not a charity.
    Good Luck

  • How do you make adobe X open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?

    This may not be the correct forum for this question, but considering that I simply
    have not been able to get a reply in any other Adobe forum, I decided
    to just post this question to ALL Adobe forums until I get a response.........
    How do you make adobe X open the "combine pdf" window in the foreground?
    I am using a "Windows 7" computer at work with "Acrobat X Pro" and I'm constantly combining
    pdf's and tiff's in Acrobat.
    It would be nice if when I select 30 or 40 files to combine, the *******
    "Combine Supported Files in Adobe Acrobat" window would open in the
    foreground, not behind the 10 or so windows already open.
    I have been researching this for some time now with no solution.
    If the answer is that "IT CAN'T BE DONE", then that's fine. At least
    I will have an answer and can stop searching. If (as I suspect) it can
    be done, then kindly supply me with "step by step" instructions.

    Hi ,
    I guess that was a bug in that version .
    It does not happen in Acrobat XI and Acrobat DC .The window comes right in front of everything else .
    I wonder that was a bug and that was fixed the other versions.
    You could upgrade to the latest Acrobat version ,i.e Acrobat DC and you would not experience this anymore .

    The pdf is loading as html code. If you save it, it will download as :
    605124.pdf.html
    Change the extension to .pdf
    And it opens and works perfectly, I just tested it:
    Use this link to download it automatically:

    Right click the FireFox button in your toolbar and look in the properties- middle tab...make sure that it only has "C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" with no other link added to the end. I had a similar problem this morning and found a website had attached it's link to the end so it would always pop up first and would only open a new tab.
    Hope that fixed it.

  • How to make a hyperlink to open new small window?

    HI!
    I try to make Dreamweawer to do next action when i click on
    some hyperlink on my page:
    - open new small sized window that does not have any
    navigation buttons from browser (back, forward, stop,...)
    - in that window there should be only picture and some text
    Probably stupid question ...but i would be happy if someone
    can help me.
    Thanks all

    Go to Dreamweaver Exchange and search for "Smart Link." The
    extension is free, and it will meet your needs mentioned above.
    Good luck!

  • Links created in Word, now in the pdf they won't open in a separate window

    I created links in my Word documents, then converted this file to a pdf. Now when I open the pdf and click on a link it open in the same window and I am unable to get back to my original document. Is there a setting somewhere to make the links open in a separate window?

    Pat, thanks for your reply. I finally had some time to look further into this problem and still trying to figure out. First to answer your questions:
    what is your operating system & version? Windows 7 Professional
    on what browser(s) does that happen? Google Chrome, Firefox, IE
    does it happen for any PDF link, e.g. this? Yes, any link with a pdf extension
    does it still hapen with the latest Reader version 10.1.4? Yes, just downloaded it last week and still the same.
    Another thing I noticed is afer unsuccessfully trying to access the pdf link, the resulting blank page reads "Could not load Adobe Acrobat" (could not load plug-in).
    I do have Adobe Creative Suite 3 installed, which of course provides for Adobe Acrobat; I'm not sure if there is a conflict there, but I might uninstall everything and then just try with Adobe Reader to see from there.
    I hope some of this helps. I appreciate your efforts in trying to assist.
    Cheers,
    Vinnie.

  • Iview not opening in a separate Window

    Hello Experts,
    We have an Iview for approving/rejecting apprasials for Manager. The Iview Id is PddDirect. In order to open this iview in a separate window we have set "Launch in New Window" property to "Display in separate window".  This Iview is assigned to a page and that page to a workset then this finally this workset is assigned to a MSS Role. This Iview opens in a separate window when accessed through MSS Role.
    Once any employee submits his appraisal Manager gets a link in email to access this appraisal document to approve/reject.
    [http://host:port/irj/portal/?NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/com.ABC.ABCContent/com.ABC.HRSE1/com.ABC.iViews/com.ABC.PddDirect&DynamicParameter=ID=014D1089964C1400E2E10080000A104E240000X]
    When manager clicks on the link to access document it opens in the Content Area of portal even though the property is set to separate window.
    When the same thing is done by loging into  ESS/MSS portal the same Iview opens in a separate window.
    Could anyone put some light on the wierd behaviour of this particular Iview.
    Thanks
    Surender Dahiya

    Hi Surendra
    As you are telling when manager clicks on the link to access document it opens.
    Can you  try with changing the property of ["Launch in New Window"  "Display in separate window"] of the Source iView i.e where the link is available also you can change target.
    If  iViews are  assigned to pages change the corresponding page properties also. Make sure clear cache of the Iview and Clear history of browser and test the same.

  • Open in a separate window

    I use Adobe Prof. to make my PDF
    I want my pdf to open in a separate window on my website.
    I found I should follow these steps-below- however it doesn't seem to work
    Edit> preferences> general> internet> uncheck display pdf in brower.
    When I go to open is show url doesn't exist.
    Please advise.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sandy,
    This is not something controlled by Acrobat. If you are posting the pdf
    through html, then you need to write code the will open a new window.

  • Simple but Urgent -- Iview when opened in a separate window

    Hi,
    I made iview's property :
       Launch in a New window :  Display in a separate window .
    So when the user logged in and  clicked on that  iview , It is opening in a separate window --
    But width around 30% (that is not full width ), height ok .
    So , Can any one tell me so that the iview must be opened in a separate window with 100% height and 100%width .
    Regards,
    Srini

    Hi Srinivasrao,
    As you said you are launching in  a new window. so in property editor of that iview just check with the properties Height,Width of external window and you can change the height type of the iview to full page insteat of fixed .and check the parameter of the window features . I hope this'll solve your problem.

  • How do I use hot spots in the most advanced style?

    My first attempt at Dreamweaver web design.http://www.deer-harbor-stewardship-project.org  . I will be resampling my images and doing a ton of other appropriate modifications but here are some initial questions. How do I use this "plug in" http://mattstow.com/experiment/responsive-image-maps/rwd-image-maps.html#blossom feature for my fluid grid responsive image map. How can I make my hot spots turn up little boxes with a photo, an illustration, or informatory text? How do I get ride of the spaces between divs? Sorry if I have asked too many questions. I better read the forum user rules if you have them. thanks for reading this. endurobob

    Anyhow, it makes no sense to put image tags within container tags meant to convey semantic meaning to their contents since an image has no semantic meaning.  So try changing this -

    to this -
    <div id="header">
          <img src="_images/title_scan.jpg" alt="newtitle">
    I completely agree with this. However, if having an image as a heading was important (if you styled it in a way you can not with CSS) you could always code the image into the heading through CSS.
    Something like:
    <h1 class="heading">This is a heading</h1>
    h1.heading {
    margin:0;
    width:??;
    height:??;
    background: #000 url(ImageURLHere) no-repeat;
    text-indent:-9999px; /* This will move the text of the heading off-screen */
    The 0 margin on the style should clear up the gap as well.

  • Hyperlinks - how to create a hot spot link?

    I would like to link to a new page from a button at the footer area only.
    This would not have a main menu level link.
    So where would I add the page in the site plan?
    Would I add a page to a 2nd tier and hide the name?
    Also how do I 'call' the hyperlink?
    Another scenario:
    There doesn't seem to be a way to create a hotspot over part of an image to link from the background image. - AND any text or image/box that sits in the footer area on the master page(not in the background) moves around when there is a concertina panel that pushes it down.

    Hi,
    You can add the page as  top level page. When you're creating it in Plan mode, right-click the page thumbail and click Menu Options -> Exclude Page From Menus. This will make the page not appear in the main level menu link. You can call the hyperlink by selecting the object you want to have the hyperlink then clicking the drop down in the Control Strip where it says Enter Link. Select the page you would like to link to.
    As for the footer link, I suggest using real text and applying the hyperlink to that by selecting the text frame and typing in the link. If you still want to use a hotspot, you can create a rectangle over the area you would like to link. Edit the rectangle to have no stroke and a 1% opaque (probably white) fill, then you will be able to use the link feature for that area. The biggest worry for creating a hot spot is that it may not line up correctly in all browsers as the page reflows, and depending on the rectangle's fill the link may not work properly in IE.
    Thanks,
    Dana
