IWeb - hyperlink open in new window?

Hi there,
Is it possible to make a hyperlink open into a new browser window when building pages in iWeb?
Thanks, mz

To add to varkgirls' reply, you can replace the nav bar links with a text link with the following format:
Page
Since all of the page html files for a give site are in the same folder the path is very simple. Just put in a text box place holder for each page directly under the navigation bar. Then turn off the nav bar in the Inspector pane and the text links will slide up to the top of the page.
After publishing, each of the page html files and replace the text place holder with the code above. Each page will open in a new window.
Do you Twango?

Make iweb hyperlinks open in new window?

i have tried massreplaceit, using rowan cottage's how-to...this didn't work...and i REALLY want my hyperlinks to open in a new window-does any have any suggestions on how they made this work?

I could be mistaken because my HTMl is at the newbie stage but I think the target="_blank" needs to look like the following except that I left off the opening and closing anchor tags that must be included:
a href="http://www.apple.com" target="_blank">apple
apple
It is placed after the website address ...apple.com" target="_blank"... not before.

Hyperlinks - Open in New Window?

Probably answered somewhere previously, but is there any way to drop in proper code in the hyperlinks to make them open the target link in a new window on the published site instead of opening within the same window, thus user leaves your site?
Thanks.

That's not possible WITHIN iWeb, but if you edit the html files of your site after you Publish, you can add a target="_blank" into each of your links so that they'll open in a new window. Also, if you change that page and re-publish, you'll have to be sure to make those changes again.

How do I make hyperlinks open in new window?

Hi, I'm using Acrobat X Pro. I have a pdf uploaded to a website, and within that pdf are two hyperlinks to other websites. Currently, if I click on the links, they open in the same window. How do I make the hyperlinks open in a new window by default? In Acrobat X Pro, I tried editing the hyperlinks by right-clicking them and selecting properties, but I don't see an option to specify how the link should open. Is this option available for web links?

I think the best you can do is use the app.launchURL JavaScript method and specify that you want to open in a new window:
// Script for link action
app.launchURL({cURL: "http://www.example.com", bNewFrame: true});
For this method's documentation, see: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.150.html

Opening a file from a hyperlink in a new window

I know than you can hyperlink to a new webpage by checking the "open in new window" box when creating the hyperlink. But I have made a hyperlink linking to an mp3 file. When you click on it, I would like a brand new window to open so my website doesn't go away. But the option is no longer available for links to files. Any advice?

The size of the popup window is given in the code from Step 3.1 (the one that opens the popup) this code where width width and height of the window that pops up is decided and that's where you have to change the width and height parameters by typing in the number of pixels (now width 300 height 200) increase height and diminish width, you have to play around a bit...
The flash player window says TEXT because that's the title of that page in iWeb, search for the title field in the page you embedded the flashplayer to and change it.
I'm glad you tried

Since switching to Firefox this week, when I click on a hyperlink in an e-mail in Outlook, I get this message, "General failure. An error occurred in sending the command to the application." It doesn't open a new window or do anything.

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.

Firefox 6 ,Hyperlink not opening when I select Open In New Tab, it always Open In New Windows.

I have just upgrade to Firefox 6 and I having problems opening Hyperlink when I select Open In New Tab, it always Open In New Windows. It will work when I open another copy of Firefox browser but not on my main browser. Any suggestions to fix this ?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

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.

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

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.

Make your links open in new windows

And before I forget... This was another thing I remembered during my internet outage...
If anyone knows where the JavaScript is stored or generated for the pages, technically you could insert a small script in there that would allow you to then specify URLs for your hyperlinks that generate new windows.
This is one way to write the script:
<script type="text/javascript">

</script>
As long as that script is either in the JavaScript file for your page(s), then you can use the following as a way to specify a URL for a hyperlink that pops-up in its own window:
javascript:open_window('http://www.website.com/');
Hopefully someone else has found where the JS files are generated or stored because if we can alter THAT information, then we have a far greater arena of functionality that we could open.

iWeb generate a JS file for an associated HTML file and put it in the page_files folder (e.g Welcome.html has Welcome.js in Welcome_files folder).
The JS files can be pretty ugly as they are, so editing or adding something else to them is a last resort (as I did in the Photos.js files for slideshow).
The alternative is add another JS file, but that requires editing the HTML file (adding the script tag inside head tag).
In the end we almost have to edit the HTML no matter what.
<!--<br>function open_window(url) ....
BTW, that is pretty much how slideshow pop open a window. But there is no way to insert javascript functions with iWeb's Inspector.

Hyperlink targeting a new window?

Has anyone been able to determine how to target a hyperlink to a new window rather than the current one? Seems like this should be a basic function but it is missing from the inspector.
Thanks.

Apnewbie -
While the explaination isn't as clear as it could be,
If you go to my main iWeb page it describes how to open your files, read the html code, etc.
http://iweb.aardvarkland.com
it basically describes manually editing the HTML.
The problem with this solution is the fact that if
you update the page, while I haven't tried it yet,
iWeb will rewrite the HTML in affect deleting the
changes that you have made. Do you really want to
manually edit the HTML every time you update your
site? I don't.
Use MassReplaceIt as recommended on my page and it will make the whole job much easier!
Apple should give the option of
targeting a new window.
Yes, but they DON'T. So manual editing is the only way.

How to Set Individual Managed Metadata Navigation Links to Open in New Window?

I am using a managed metadata term set for the global navigation in my client's site. Most of the global navigation links point to pages in the current site, and should open in the current browser window/tab as the end user is just navigating within the
site content. However, I have one particular node in the navigation term set that points to related content scattered around other external sites. The client wants these links to open a new window.
Unfortunately, I can't seem to set the target for navigation links in the term set. If I was using standard global navigation, I'd be able to select the "Open in new window" checkbox when setting up the link, but that option doesn't appear to be
supported via MMD navigation.
Any clever suggestions?
Thanks!

I had a similarish requirement at a client once upon a time, they wanted any links that went outside of the intranet web applications to open in a new window.
The way we managed that was to use jQuery to overwrite the standard hyperlink references for any hrefs that didn't point to internal sites to use the same javascript functions that SharePoint used for links configured to open in a new window. It worked out
as being about half a dozen lines; check the URL and if it doesn't begin with a set range of options then overwrite the on click behaviour using standard jQuery behaviour.
If you want it site wide then you just add jQuery and the code snippet to the master page, if you just want it in some places then add a CEWP or a HTML form web part to the relevant pages.
