How to prevent New Window from offsetting location from previous windows?

I'm anal retentive. I like a tidy screen. I place all Firefox windows at top left corner of the screen. Each successive New Window arrives offset a small distance to the right, so that it does not cover the previous window. That's terrific, except... I do not want that behavior. I am constantly repositioning the New Window so that it too starts at the top left corner of the screen. It would be delightful if there were a Preferences option to allow New Windows to NOT be automatically offset to the right of the previous Firefox window.

Contact Form (php) - how to prevent new window...

My contact form works just fine, however, I currently have
the target set to "_blank" which is not what I want.
Rather than opening the .php file open in a new window, I
just want to go to a new frame (labeled "success" or "error")
within my flash file (which currently works fine)
So, my question is how do I send the form information to my
php file WITHOUT having to open a new window outside of my flash
file since I'm sending the user to new frame instead.
FYI: I've already tried removing "_blank" but it still opens
the php file in a new browser window.
My code below:
on (release){
var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
my_lv.fullName = fullName_txt.text;
my_lv.email = email_txt.text;
my_lv.emailMessage = emailMessage_txt.text;
if(fullName_txt.text != "" && email_txt.text != ""
&& emailMessage_txt.text != "") {
my_lv.send("contact.php","_blank","POST");
gotoAndStop("success");
else {
gotoAndStop("error");
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Yvonne

Thanks for your help, Zupko.
I tried your suggestion but I'm still experiencing the same
problem. A new window still opens. Perhaps I'm doing something
wrong?
My code with your suggestion below:
on (release){
var my_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
my_lv.fullName = fullName_txt.text;
my_lv.email = email_txt.text;
my_lv.emailMessage = emailMessage_txt.text;
if(fullName_txt.text != "" && email_txt.text != ""
&& emailMessage_txt.text != "") {
loadVariables("contact.php","POST");
gotoAndStop("success");
else {
gotoAndStop("error");
Your help is very much appreciated!

How do I prevent new windows?

Greetings,
When I go to thePirateBay.com, a new window opens. The website opens a new window using Javascript (window.open). I've tried opening the site in a Private Window but it doesn't help. How can I prevent new windows from opening?
Thanks,
Shane.

It's a new window (not a tab) that is fully maximized and contains an ad.
Let me know if you need anything else.

How to open new window and generate oracle report from apex

Hi,
I had created an application that generates PDF files using Oracle Reports, following this Guide.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
And I followed 'Advanced Technique', so that users can't generate PDF file by changing URL and parameters. This is done for security reasons.
But in this tutorial, when 'Go' button is pressed, the PDF file is displayed on the same window of apex application. If so, user might close the window by mistake. In order to avoid this, another window have to be opened.
So, I put this code in the BRANCH - URL Target. (Note that this is not in Optional URL Redirect in the button property, but the branch which is called by the button.)
javascript:popupURL('&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.')
But if the button is pressed, I get this error.
ERR-1777: Page 2100 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Restart Application
If I put the code 'javascritpt ....' in the Optional URL Redirect, another window opens successfully, but the Process to generate report job is not executed.
Does anyone know how to open new window from the Branch in this case?

G'day Shohei,
Try putting your javascript into your plsql process using the htp.p(); procedure.
For example, something along these lines should do it:
BEGIN
-- Your other process code goes here...
htp.p('<script type="javascript/text">');
htp.p('popupURL("&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.")');
htp.p('</script>');
END;
What happens is the javascript is browser based whereas your plsql process is server based and so if you put the javascript into your button item Optional URL Redirect it is executed prior to getting to the page plsql process and therefore it will never execute the process. When you have it in your branch which normally follows the processes, control has been handed to the server and the javascript cannot be executed and so your page throws the error "Page 2100 provided no page to branch to"... By "seeding" the plsql process with the embedded javascript in the htp.p() procedure you can achieve the desired result. You could also have it as a separate process also as long as it is sequenced correctly to follow your other process.
HTH
Cheers,
Mike

How to open "All Tabs" from previously shown pages history?

Hi,
How to open "All Tabs" from previously shown pages history. I am not asking about "Reopen from last session". I am asking about how to open all tabs from previous webpage links from a past date from history, currently its allowing me to select each page link manually by clicking it.
Thank you!

Select the first item you wish to open, scroll down to the last, Shift-click that one & all those between should be selected too. Double-click on them & they should all start to open... or you can copy & then drag/paste into a new or existing bookmarks folder.

How to use budget amount from previous years

Dear Values Consultant
How to use budget amount from previous years
I create budget for 2007 and I use it .in 2008 I create new budget with new amount for account, but still there are amount from 2007-I want to use or transfer it to 2008,
How to do this? Please give me details step to implement to this feature
Thanks for caring

Hi,
There are two ways to do it:
1. Define the account range in your Budget Organization and in the Budgetary Control region, out the Amount Type as "PJTD" and Boundary as "Project". This method is useful when you have project as a segment in your chart of accounts and the Budgets are defined for the full project.
2. The Other way is to carry forward your funds available from last year. Go to Journals -> Generate -> Carry Forward and carry forward the balance for a certain range of account from one financial year to the next one.

How do I transfer photos from previous phone (not an iphone) to my iphone4s?

How do I transfer photos from previous phone (not an iphone) to my iphone4s?

You need to import the photos with your computer, or transfer the photos from the phone to your computer followed by transferring the photos to your iPhone the same way you transfer any other photos on your computer to your iPhone - via the iTunes sync/transfer process. This is selected under the Photos tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

The previous owner doesn't need to give you their credentials. They can release the device via Find My iPhone on iCloud.com as per the instructions in the link I posted in my initial response: Find My iPhone Activation Lock: Removing a device from a previous owner
If the previous owner is not present
Make sure the device is powered on and connected to a Wi-Fi or cellular network. Then contact the previous owner and ask them to follow these steps to remove the device from their account:
Sign in to their iCloud account at www.icloud.com/find.
Click All Devices to open a list of devices linked to their account, then select the device to be removed.
Click the Erase button to erase all content and settings from the device. When prompted, don't enter a phone number or message. Click Next until the device is erased.
When the erase is complete, click "Remove from Account" to remove the device from the account.
After the device is erased and removed from the account, you can proceed with the device setup process.
If the person you bought it from refuses to do this, I would assume the device is stolen and I would demand a refund and/or contact the authorities.

How to pen new window while redirecting to a page

Hi,
I have a jsppage 1,jsppage 2 and aspPage. In jsp2 I am getting the
values from jsp1 using request.getParameter("hhhh").Once I get
all values in jsp2 , as soon as I got the values I need to redirect to asp from jsp2.
I don't have any form or any button in jsp2.When I do submit in jsp1,
immediately it has to open asp page in new window. My question is how
I open the asp in new window in this redirection case .....?.
I tried this way but not working ...
WebsiteUtils.sendRedirect(request,response,window.open("ASP page"));
I know if I have submit button in jsp2 I can write a javascriptfunction
to opennew window but here the case is different....
Appreciate your reply.
Thanks

On jsppage1, instead of using a from submit button, you can create abutton and write th onClick as
<input type="button" value="OK" onClick="window.open('jsppage2.jsp','win2');">
Now in Jsppage2.jsp, after doing all the processing, use sendRedirect to call jsppage3.jsp.
Since jsppage2 is never being displayed, page3 will bw the one which will be shown in the new window opened by the name win2 on onClick.
If I have understood your requirement correctly, then this should work for you as I have tried it out.

Dev question: how to prevent Adobe Reader from copying pdfs to "Download/Adobe Reader"?

I am making an app that downloads pdf files from a server and the users can decide to store them in the phone. Those files are kept in the app's private storage.
The pdf files can be opened from inside the app. The problem is that every time a pdf is opened, adobe reader copies it in "Download/Adobe Reader" (the path may be different depending on the device and the android version). Those pdf files should not be available from outside my app. How can I prevent adobe reader from creating copies in that folder? Do I really have to make my app track them down and delete them? It wouldn't be the safest solution...
In order to open the files, I se up a content provider:
from the manifest:
<provider
    android:name="android.support.v4.content.FileProvider"
    android:authorities="com.example.myapp.fileprovider"
    android:exported="false"
    android:grantUriPermissions="true" >
    <meta-data
        android:name="android.support.FILE_PROVIDER_PATHS"
        android:resource="@xml/filepaths" />
</provider>
And then, in a method, I do this:
File pdfToRead = new File(pdfPath);
Uri uri = FileProvider.getUriForFile(context, "com.example.myapp.fileprovider", pdfToRead);
for (ResolveInfo resolveInfo : appsList) {
    String packageName = resolveInfo.activityInfo.packageName;
    context.grantUriPermission(packageName, uri, Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
openPDF(context, uri);
public static final void openPDF(Context context, Uri localUri) {
    Intent i = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
    i.setDataAndType(localUri, PDF_MIME_TYPE);
    context.startActivity(i);
Thanks for the help.

Meh, I just hoped there was a way to tell acrobat "don't create a copy of the file because it's private". For now, I'm detecting the "downloads/Adobe Reader" folder, look if there's the file that was opened and delete it.
Now I need to know something that I can't ask on stackoverflow: what paths does Adobe Reader use to create the "Adobe Reader" folder? Because not every device has an external sd card (external, not removable. Just for clarity). In my device it's at "Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS)+"/Adobe Reader".

How do prevent HTML snippets from being listed on search engines?

I just created a new website using iWeb 3.0.1. On a couple of my pages I embedded flash music players and video players using the HTML Snippet widget. I did a quick search of my website on google and noticed that the HTML widgets were showing in the results as separate pages. I then clicked on these HTML Snippet pages and up came the widget on a separate page by itself. How do I prevent search engines from listing any HTML Snippets on my iWeb site as separate pages?
Thanks
athafran

Paste this in the HTML Snippet.
In the <body> ... </body> part you paste the code you currently use for your Snippet.
I haven't tried it, the noindex part, but the code itself is accepted by iWeb.
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta name="robots" content="noindex,nofollow">
<meta name="description" content="instructions for excluding search engine robots">
<title>Search Engine exclusion</title>
</head>
<body>
Here your current code.
