Launch new web browser during webGui transaction

Question:
Is there as easy way to launch a new web browser window (IE) during a webGUI transaction (from the ABAP code).
Background:
We have a transaction linked to a simple ABAP report that is launched from a web based non-SAP reporting tool via the ITS (webGUI based). The user would like to click a link (hotspot) in the ABAP report that would launch a new IE window passing a URL and parameters.
What I've already tried:
I tried inserting and running Javascript in the ABAP but the my basic window.open code did nothing. Also noticed that SAPHTML_DEMO1 will work during a webGUI transaction, but would prefer a new window.
Basis 620
Thanks,
Brian

Turns out this is simple:
call function 'ITS_BROWSER_WINDOW_OPEN'
    exporting
      url                     = $url
    exceptions
      its_not_available       = 1
      others                  = 2.

Hyperlink open up a new web browser

Hello,
I have a Logo that I have hyperlinked to a webpage. I need to have it open up a new Browser Window instead of changing the page the Logo with Hyperlink is on.
Any tips on how I can make a Logo with a hyperlink open up a new web browser?

I just downloaded Acrobat XI and do not have this orange Hyperlink button. The only hyperlink tool I can find is the Add or Edit Link button. I am a teacher for an online school who is creating PPT presentations that I convert to PDFs, and upload them for my students. When my students open the instructional PDF and then click on a link, it takes them away from the PDF instead of opening a new browser window. They are very limited computer users, and I need a way to make this work! I've already tried putting in the target=blank code and haven't gotten that to work either. Can you offer any help?

How to uninstall Flipora. It's a new web browser . Have a compatibility problem with Safari.

After an invitation via email to install Flipora (a new web browser), eveytime I click eg a website link sent via an email, Flipora will automatically switch me to Google search engine. Prior installing i have no problem .
Anyone have experienced this problem? How to uninstall?
I have tested no problem if i open me gmail using Windown OS on the same Macbook. Suspect incompatible.

This function will launch the default browser under Windows.

How do I keep Mozilla's "Yahoo" text, links, references off my computer screen, or do I need to start looking for a new web browser?????

I find the Yahoo search experience condescending, overbearing, dictatorial and offensive. I truly regret your forcing Yahoo on me without giving me a way to use a search engine I am comfortable with. Perhaps there is a way to opt out of Yahoo's contamination of Firefox, but I have yet to figure it out. How do I banish your Yahoo from my Firefox ? I'm trying not to be ugly about this but I really think this was a wrong turn for mozilla on the road to success.

Sorry I know some people do not like this, and as usual Firefox made a change without advance warning, but it is easy to change back.
Just change the search engine set as default in the search bar that changes all the Firefox searches to use that search engine.
So that includes, location bar, newtab, homepage, highlighted text
* Use Magnifying glass icon -> Change Search Settings -> |Search| Default Search Engine [ v^]
* See [[Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox]]
Hope this helps you to quickly get back to normal. Please post back to say how you get on.
John
===Full standard reply===
Thank you for your question about the search changes in Firefox. There's been a lot of exciting news and we are happy to assist you.
'''What has changed?''' 
In the US and Canada, the default search engine has been changed from ''Google'' to ''Yahoo''. In Russia, ''Yandex Search'' will become the default search and in China, ''Baidu'' will continue to be the default search. However, all other search engines will still be available in these regions. You will notice this change in Firefox 34.
'''Would you like to know more about the change?''' 
See the blog post written by Chris Beard, [https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2014/11/19/promoting-choice-and-innovation-on-the-web/ New Search Strategy for Firefox: Promoting Choice & Innovation] and the News Release, [https://blog.mozilla.org/press/2014/11/yahoo-and-mozilla-form-strategic-partnership/ Yahoo and Mozilla Form Strategic Partnership].
'''Do you want to change your default search engine?''' 
In Firefox 33 or below, you would change your default search engine from the Search bar, as shown in [/gallery/image/19894 this animation]. Starting in Firefox 34, you can use one of these methods: 
''Note: The following may not apply to localized versions of Firefox.''
* Click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and choose '''Options''' on Windows or '''Preferences''' on Mac or Linux, then select the '''Search''' settings panel.
* Click on the magnifying glass icon in the Search bar, then click on Change Search Settings, as shown here:
:[[Image:search prefs 34]]
In the Search settings panel that opens, select a different search engine from the drop-down menu (see [/en-US/gallery/image/20002 this screenshot]).
For more information, see the article [[Search bar - add, change and manage search engines on Firefox]].
Let us know if this answers your questions. If you have any other questions, we are happy to help.

i need help with this issue. do i need to change a pop up blocker setting?

It is best to use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot and make sure that you do not exceed a maximum file size of 1 MB.
Then use the '''Browse ....''' button below the '''''Post a Reply''''' text box to upload the screenshot.

How to launch a web browser from a MAC java app

I know, this topic has been brought up over, and over, however I couldn't find info regarding MAC environments. I don't have any former experience with MAC, but now I'm getting desperate for a solution. I need to be able to pop up the default browser showing a certain URL on MAC/OS from a java application. Any clue would be appreciated.
Thanks a lot,

Any new ideas for launching web browser from application

I have searched the forums trying to find a new way of launching a web browser from a java application. The problem I am having is that on Unix and Linux systems, at least the variety I have access to (not quite sure on what that variety those are as they are not my systems or systems I control), the common method of using Runtime.getRuntime().exec(STRING) with either netscape or mozilla does not work. While using the Runtime.exec method is not the same as a console, I did try on these systems "netscape + A_WEB_ADDRESS" (or mozilla) and it did launch the respective browser with the page, so it appears that at least from the console level, those commands are valid.
All the forums seem to say that the Runtime.exec method is the way to go. All the source code I have found through links from the forum say the same thing. I have voted on this bug:
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4210168.html
and the feedback there does seem to indicate that there is similar trouble out there. Below is the code I am using. It does work on Win2000,XP, and Mac OSX. The application is not supported on earlier systems, and as it stands it will not work on Win 95,98, nor ME. Only small modification should be needed for work on those OSs, but as I no longer personally use those OSs, I cannot be sure.
private void openNativeBrowser(String url) {
// not the browser itself is started, i only call something like
// start http://www.javasoft.com
// and then the standardbrowser will be started ...
StringBuffer call = new StringBuffer();
System.err.println(System.getProperty("os.name"));
System.err.println(System.getProperty("user.dir"));
try {
// which OS ?
String operatingSystem = System.getProperty("os.name");
// how to call the OS
if (operatingSystem.toLowerCase().indexOf("windows") > -1)
call.append("cmd /c start ").append(url);
else
if (operatingSystem.toLowerCase().indexOf("mac") > -1)
call.append("open ").append(url + " &");
else if(operatingSystem.toLowerCase().indexOf("linux") > -1)
// use Script 'netscape'
call.append("mozilla ").append(url).append(" &");
else
call.append("netscape ").append(url).append(" &");
System.err.println(call.toString());
// start it ...
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(call.toString());
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println(e.getMessage());
e.printStackTrace();
As I said, if you have a new way to call the broswer that seems to work on either Unix or Linux, please post it, point to it, or explain it.
Aaron

there is a shell script on Linux called htmlview that you can launch like this:
String[] cmd = {"htmlview", "http://java.sun.com"};
try {
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);
} catch (IOException ioe) {
    // do something
}which will open the default browser. Don't think this is available on other *NIX though, although the script itself would probably work so you could include it with your app (/usr/bin/htmlview).

Launching A Custom Web Browser

I'm fairly new to java and I was wondering if, from an applet, there is a way for me to launch a web browser without the toolbar and to a specific size...
I've gotten as far as:
AppletContext mainContext = getAppletContext();
mainContext.showDocument( link, target );
But I was really hoping to be able to customize the window that is created.
Thanks for any help in advance.

you'd be better off checking the IE api
because you'll be launching IE
and passing arguments to it, ie
MENUBAR_OFF
etc
etc
This is not java api
its particular to the browser functionality
