Opening Hyperlinks from PDF in a new browser Window

We have a web based (ASP.NET) tool to author HTML content. Authors can create/edit HTML content, preview, and save the file as PDF. A 3rd party component- abcpdf is used to convert HTML into PDF. The converted PDF form will be distributed to consumers.
The PDF typically contains Hyperlinks, text boxes and submit button.
Clicking the hyper link in PDF should open the HTML in a new browser instance. It should not hijack (overwrite or reuse) existing browser instance that may be active in users computer irrespective of browser setting. Changing the browser setting IE: Internet Option > Advanced > Reuse windows for launching shortcuts is not acceptable by users.
Please let us know the solution if any

Hi Sarah ,
You can right click on the link and choose properties and then in the actions tab you can select the desired action you want .
You will get a list of various actions specifying how and where do you want to open that link.
Try this and let us know how it goes.

Does anyone know if iWeb allows a way to create a hyperlink such that it will open a new browser window rather than navigating away from your site?

Opening Hyperlinks in New Browser Window?

Hi All,
Does anyone know how to have keynote open a hyperlink in a new browser window? I have exported my keynote presentation to a quicktime moive and posted it on the web.
However, when someone clicks on one of the hyperlinks it opens the new website in the same browser window. When they click the Back button to go back to my Keynote quicktime movie it starts the presentation/movie over.
Any help you may have to offer would be GREATLY appreciated! Thank you!

New Browser Window from Hyperlinks on PDF created in In Design

I am creating PDF documents using In Design CS3. The PDFs have hyperlinks to other PDFs as well as hyperlinks to webpages. The finalized PDF is being accessed through our website as a link on the webpage. The PDF is opening in a new browser window/tab and the hyperlinks are working great. My problem is this: How do I get it so that the hyperlinks on the PDF open to a new browser window as well. Currently, when I click a link, it changes the current browser window that the PDF is in. I want to set this so that anyone, from any computer will have it so that the link opens a new window/tab.

In Adobe Acrobat (the application, not the .pdf reader) use the Link Tool to edit the hyperlinked text object. Remove the “Open a web link” action assigned by default to handle the hyperlinked text when clicked. Assign a new action to the linked text that will open the hyperlink in a new window.
Note: The links have to be established each time you create a PDF – they do not carry over from In Design or any other software.
1.     Access the Link tool (Tools > Advanced Editing > Link Tool)
2.     Right click on the hyperlinked text and select Properties
3.     In the Link Properties dialog box click on the Actions tab
4.     In the middle of the Actions panel in the Actions section click on the Open a web link action listed there to select it.
5.     Click the Delete button located just below that section in the lower right corner. This removes the action from the list and the Actions section should now be empty.
6.     In the Add an Action section right above the Actions section click on the Select Action drop down menu and select the Run a JavaScript action from the list.
7.     Click the Add… button.
8.     In the JavaScript Editor that opens up, click your cursor in the Create and Edit JavaScripts area, like you would in a word processor to begin typing, and type the following line:
app.launchURL("http://www.MySampleURL.com/someFolder/somePage.html", true);
9.     Change the hyperlink text between the quotation marks to your desired URL.
Ex: app.launchURL("http://www.cnn.com", true);
Caution:
1.     The code is case sensitive so make sure you typed app.launchURL NOT app.launchurl or some other case combination.
2.     Make sure that you have quotation marks around your hyperlink URL.
3.     Make sure there is a semicolon at the end of the line of code you just typed.
4.     Make sure that the quotation marks are straight up and down – not on an angle.
10. Click OK to close the JavaScript Editor dialog box.
11. Click OK to close the Link Properties dialog box.
12. Save the .pdf and test your .pdf hyperlink by opening the .pdf document in a browser, click the link and check to see that it opens in a new browser window.

RoboHelp 8 HTML - Open Hyperlinks in a New Browser Window

[email protected]
Hi all,
I’m new to the RoboHelp community and have an issue I have not yet seen addressed elsewhere in the forums. I’m working in RoboHelp 8 HTML and am generating webhelp. My question is regarding hyperlink options. The option for open in a new window opens topics and links in a new tab. Is there a method, hacking or otherwise, for having the links open in a new browser window?
Much thanks in advance.

Hi,
Welcome to Adobe forum,
As I understand you are trying to open the hyperlinks in a new window instead of a tab.
Well it is possible in Robohelp 8 HTML
Here are the steps which you need to follow.
1. Select the text Right click on it and then select Insert Hyperlink.
Once you click on the Insert Hyperlink another Popup window will appear in your screen.
You need to check this screenshot and select the appropriate option.
Try and generate the Webhelp and see if that helps you,
I hope that will resolve your issue.Please reply if that resolves your issue.
Thanks

How to pop up a new browser window to point to an external site

Please help. we want to popup an new browser window when click on a button and the new window is pointing to an external web site.
I can make it work to point to an external site in the same window. But that is not we want to.
I do see some old posting about this but it does not work for us.
Please anyone knows the detail of the steps and code, probably including any environment setting/configuration if required, response to this thread.
thanks a lot in advance!
ggu

ggu,
This is a gimmicky solution but it works and is reusable. Copy your button template and rename it POP_UP_BUTTON. Get rid of the #LINK# substitution string and replace it with:
window.open('#BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES#')Put the URL you want to go to in the attributes section of the button. Put something like "TO_<DOMAIN>" in the button request so it is not totally gibberish and irrelevant. This would be much nicer if the apex engine did not include the "apex.submit()" code inside of the #LINK# substitution string. Or if they provided a second substitution string just for the URL specified.
Here is the old code:
<button value="#LABEL#" onclick="#LINK#" class="button-default" type="button">
<span>#LABEL#</span>
</button>here is the new code:
<button value="#LABEL#" onclick="window.open('#BUTTON_ATTRIBUTES#')" class="button-default" type="button">
<span>#LABEL#</span>
</button>Cheers,

Open discoverer report in new browser window and without connections page

Hi All,
We are using Oracle 11g Discoverer 11.1.1.4. Requirement is to open the discoverer report in a new browser window and without connections page.
When we are running discoverer reports with this parameters we unwantedly get the connections page of the discoverer plus which we don't want.
Went through the documentation given in this page and followed it still the issue persists, and i see couple of threads with my issue and no updates.
This excerpt is from the documentation available in the link
" _plus_popup=true and framedisplaystyle=embedded launches Discoverer Plus in a new pop-up browser window that contains the Plus applet embedded in it "
http://www.art2dec.com/documentation/docs/oas10g1012/linux/bi.1012/b13918/urlstart.htm
and Here is what we use to invoke our reports.
http://ipaddress:port/discoverer/plus?cn=cf_123&_plus_popup=TRUE&framedisplaystyle=EMBEDDED&wb=disc_wb_1
Request the forum users from PRO discoverer group to help me out of this issue and expect a good discussion on this.
Thanks in advance

New browser window with javascript

Hello,
I'm trying to accomplish something similar to what has been
discussed in other threads (Jess Learnin, 9/30/2008, and another
thread from back in '07). I've tried the advice given in these
threads and have had no luck. I would like to create a button to
call a new browser window that displays a URL of my choosing. I'd
like to specify the size and attributes of the new window. I've
created a small dummy tutorial in order to work on this feature.
I'm using the "Execute Javascript" option when configuring
the button. I include the following javascript:
window.open('
http://lib.berkeley.edu/BIOS/index.html',
'myWindow','height=400, width=700, toolbar=no');
I have the Captivate button context set to "Current". I have
deselected "Continue Playing Project" (though I've tried it with
that option selected as well).
I've tried prefacing the script w/
"javascript:window.open...", but no luck.
I'm testing the file on a development server, rather than
from a local copy. When I test in Firefox, my movie simply stops
when I click the button, without opening a new window or loading a
web page. When I test in IE7, the movie stops and I get a message,
"Error on page"; still no new window.
I do notice that I'm currently running Flash Player 10. I'm
using Captivate 3. When I publish my file, my options only go up to
Flash Player 9, which is what I have chosen. I don't know if this
would make a difference.
I have also tried altering the standard.js file in the manner
that jbradley88 suggested in the 9/30/08 thread, and using the
corresponding javascript in the button properties window, with
similar unsuccessful results.
I have tried running the movie on a different computer, in
case some local setting was somehow mucking things up. I get
nothing.
Any suggestions? If anyone's willing to take a look, I can
send along my small dummy .cp file that I've been working on.
Thanks in advance.
-Kelly

Hi John,
Here's the exact javascript that I currently have associated
with the button:
void(window.open('
http://lib.berkeley.edu/BIOS/index.html',
'myWindow','height=400, width=700, toolbar=no'));
I've tried multiple permutations, including placing
"javascript:" in front of the script, both with and without the
void().
The message in IE7 just says "Error on page". It's not a
pop-up message; it's just the small message that appears at the
bottom left of the browser window in IE7 when a page fails to load
properly. The message doesn't appear until I click on the button
that's supposed to call the javascript. There's a yellow
exclamation point icon that appears next to the "Error on page"
message. When I click on that I get:
"Problems with this Web page might prevent it from being
displayed properly or functioning properly. In the future, you can
display this message by double-clicking the warning icon displayed
in the status bar."
It also displays a pointer to the error:
Line: 1
Char: 111
Error: Syntax error
Code: 0
URL:
http://library11.berkeley.edu/bios/kelly/Practice_demo.htm
I looked at the source for the page as displayed by IE7 (have
also looked at the .htm and .js files generated by Captivate) and
haven't seen anything obvious, but I'm somewhat unschooled in such
matters.
If it would help to see what it does, you can view the demo
at the URL above.
Thx again,
Kelly

Portlet Item Attr: "Link That Displays Item in New Browser Window"

I have been searching the forums for a similar experience, but haven't found anything quite like this:
I have a couple of portlets. One is a Discoverer Portlet, the other is something more basic: The "Developer News" portlet from the 9iAS Community portlet provider.
After defining the portlets and looking at them, I edit the page and click the Edit button (little pencil) to edit the attributes.
There are radio buttons for Display Options.
One option is: "Link that Displays Item in New Browser Window."
When I select this, OK, and then go back to the page, **the portlet doesn't show at all any more! There is no link, no nothing. Note that I have defined a Display Name, which should be the text for the link.
It would seem that this feature flat out doesn't work.
This technique for a popup works fine for an "Item" defined in an item region.
Anyone?

Yes -- I did do that after reading an article on metalink about such issues.
This actually changes the problem.
When I add the "Display name and image link" attribute to the region, I now do get a link.
However, clicking it brings up an undefined Discoverer portlet.
It works great for non-Disco portlets. For instance, I was able to pop up the "Developer News" portlet from the Oracle 9iAS Community portlet provider.
I think the problem is that the link that Disco produces does not provide enough information to bring up the particular portlet. For instance, the URL does not have the workbook name, the worksheet name, the parameter values, etc.
If anyone uses Disco w/ the portal, I would be curious to hear if anyone can reproduce this apparent bug / limitation.

How do get a dynamic image to open in new browser window

I'm using DW CS3, mysql (MAMP) OS 10.6.2 I'm designing my online store. I need the customer to be able to click dynamic image/thumbnails to view a larger image in a new browser pop up window 400 x 400. An example of this functionality can be seen at :
http://www.designpublic.com/spot-on-square-roh-dresser
So far I can get the separate new browser window to open with the dynamic image, using the open new browser behavior, but the on click also advances to next page with the larger image. You have to press the back button to get back to the product page. I want the customer to be able to see the product page , while viewing larger image, and then close larger image, and still have the product page open. I don't understand why 2 windows are opening.
Thanks for the help people!
William

Hi
I did look at it but, (and this is only my opinion, I do not like such effects) it is your decision.
If you view source you will see -
<a href="#" onclick="popWin('http://www.designpublic.com/catalog/product/gallery/id/12706/image/91883/', 'gallery', 'width=300,height=300,left=50,top=50,location=no,status=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes'); return false;" title="Spot on Square Roh Dresser" class="gallery-image-link"><img src="http://arcsmedia01.s3.amazonaws.com/catalog/product/cache/2/thumbnail/56x56/5e06319eda06f020e43594a9c230972d/r/o/roh_dresser1.jpg" alt="" /></a>
Which is controlled by the javascript function
popWin()
which you can view using the firefoxe dev toolbar - view javascript function.

Open QT In New Browser Window - Followup Q For Quicktime Kirk

Quicktime Kirk:
I found a thread a few months ago (now archived) where you explained how to open a QT movie in a new browser window at specified dimensions. The example you gave was your page:
http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/bushbashquiz/
So I've got it all working and it looks great in Safari and Fireworks (thanks very much!), BUT unfortunately it does not work in Explorer. What happens in Explorer is that the window basically targets "_.self" (i.e. the parent window goes away), and when you click the "Close Window" button it closes the window and you're left with nothing.
I know that Explorer has all kinds of bugs, but unfortunately it's popular -- esp. with the PC crowd whom I need to allow for. Do you or anyone know how to get this functionality working in Explorer???
Thanks again.

Yep. I just checked the link using IE for Mac. The "pop-up" window replaces the source window (not supposed to do that). Another reason to no longer use IE on a Mac.
The javascript is valid in every other Mac browser. Just not IE, it seems.
My PC is down (I think it really died this time) so I can't test its implementation of javascripts on a PC platform.
And, you're correct. It doesn't work as it should when opened using IE on a Mac.
I "borrowed" the javascript and it must contain errors that are not so obvious on the Mac OS.
I'll look for the cause but can't promise a solution. Thank you for pointing this out. I try very hard to accommodate all browsers and OS's. This one skipped by me (no IE use in years on my Mac).
Maybe a javascript guru can "fix" my (or IE's) sloppy page code.

Link to a New Browser window

Anybody knows of an easy way to open a report through the link on another report into a new browser window by default? Thanks.

hi you can do this in a couple of ways
create a format trigger on the column that you want to use as the link :-
function F_organizationFormatTrigger return boolean is
begin
srw.set_hyperlink('http://' || :BASEURL || '/anotherjsp.jsp?REPORT_ID=1&destype=cache&desformat=' || :desformat || '&WHERECLS=' || :DRILLCLS || '&DRILLVALUE=' || chr(39) || :column1 || ' ' || chr(39) );
srw.set_hyperlink_attrs('target=_blank');
return (TRUE);
end;
or you can put it in the Web Settings piece of the Property Inspector for the column that you want to link from . there is a paramter for hyperlink and hyperlink destination.
hope this helps

How to show an HTML page in a new browser window

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to show a page generated by some servlet in a new browser window when the button is clicked on the applet. I can accomplish that by using AppletContext as in:
myApplet.getAppletContext().showDocument(servletUrl, "_blank");
The only problem with this is that I don't have any control over how the new browser window is displayed. Using JavaScript I can set size, hide toolbar and address bar, etc. But how can I hide address bar on a new browser window generated in this scenario?
I tried to call intermediate servlet from my applet which in turn generates a new window by writing out JavaScript code. This way I lose my previous page with the applet even though a new window is displayed the way I wanted but I want this new browser window to act as a pop-up box and my applet page stay on screen. Also, is there a way to send a POST request from an applet by using AppletContext.showDocument() method?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Y.M.

Did you ever figure out a solution for this? I too would like to open a new browser window to act as a pop-up box and my applet page stay on screen. If anyone has any thoughts on how to do this, please post! thanks.
