Link takes over entire browser window

I'm using the inline-navigator method on a portlet (.NET 5.0.3) and it works fine for the most part. For some reason though one of the links takes over the entire window when you click on it. What's weird is that this link is the exact same link used elsewhere, but this behavior only occurs when the link is wrapping an image. I added a JS alert to check if the JS script was even catching the DIV event, and it is. All links are gatewayed as well. Anyone experience this?

Hi Gaurav,
Thnx for your response. If I set the destination url property for the cancel button, which is in the center frame of the OA 3 - frame JSP page (OA tree bean page), without setting the target frame for it then response comes to the center frame only. The content of the left and top frame remain unchanged. But, my requirement is that the response should take control of entire browser window. So, somewhow either declaratively or programmatically I have to set the button bean property such that the browser knows the response for the particular form submission is meant for the entire window. But, I am not able to achieve it. Please help.
Regards,
Avinash

  • Force app iframe links to open new browser window?

    We're building a simple app that uses iframes to pull in external images and text to display in specific regions of the app's pages. The text displayed is an HTML list of links -- each link the name of a legislator -- that lead to that person's official biography. The client wants the following behavior: When the app user clicks a name/hyperlink, the iPad browser should take over and display the bio. When done reading the bio, the user can click the browser's close-window symbol at top right, then they will be back where they started in the app.
    For some reason, these links insist on opening within the iframe, regardless of whether or not we use the target="_blank" method. I tried Googling for this as a known behavior, but found nothing. Tips?

    If it will help, here's a sample of the HTML were bringing into the iframe from an external source. We did not write this code but can relay messages to their Web developer ...

  • 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

  • Link opening in new browser window

    For the links in my flash navigation at the bottom right
    corner, I'd like them to open up in the same browser window. When I

    a new browser window. But after this, all links open in the current
    window. Any idea why this might be happening?

  • Have PDF links open in new browser window.

    Hello. I'm new to creating PDFs with active links. I created a PDF that is linked within a page. When that link is clicked it opens up the PDF in a new window. I want the links in that PDF to open up in a new browser window. Is that possible? I don't see the option in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
    I have another question. The links don't work at all in mobile devices. Is there something I have to do to have the links work in an iPad, iPhone, etc?

    Is the link an HTML link, or within a PDF? Is it a URL link or a file link?

  • Do NOT want to open link in a new browser window - iWeb '09

    I do not want links that navigate around my website to open a new browser window every time. Right now, for example, From my main page, I click a link to a secondary page, it opens it in a new window, I then click the link back to my main page, and it opens in a new window. I now have 3 windows open.
    I am not using the navigation bar as it set ups with iWeb (I have it hidden). I am using hyperlinks I attached to text boxes. Would this problem be remedied if I was using the navigation bar? If so, is there anyway to edit the appearance of the navigation bar and it's location on the page?
    Primarily though, I would like my text hyperlinks to just navigate my page and not open in new windows.
    Thanks!

    And that's the way it should be.
    If you look at this page about navigation you'll see that the main navigation uses eternal links and the sub navigation internal ones....

  • Opening external link in a new browser window

    Some of the external links in my web page need to open in
    their own window, leaving my site still open in the background. Can
    anyone tell me how to do this? I don't see an option anywhere when
    I am creating these links.
    The links are to, for example, "The City of ......", and
    could be quite long to traverse. I don't want my visitors to have
    to click their browser's back button who knows how many times to
    get back to my site.

  • I have "broken" both Firefox and IE. Neither will open a new tab after I click a link. My entire browsing experience is compromised. Help

    That's about it. Neither browser will open a second tab. Usually cant get to AOL mail. When I do and click on a message I only get a BLANK screen. Using Windows 7.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Links open in browser window

    I inherited a Help project in RoboHelp 6. I have both
    context-sensitive topics and am developing a total Help system. I
    am frustrated with several "features" of RoboHelp.
    1) I can't figure out how to control how links open. I want
    them all to open in a small Help window, so when a user clicks a
    link, it opens in the same Help window. Instead, many of my links
    are opening in a full browser window. How do I control this?
    2) When I edit code in their supposedly "TrueCode" mode, my
    changes do not "take" -- instead RoboHelp shows something else, and
    this happens even when I edit the file in another editor. I hate
    this!!! (One example: to try to fix the window-opening problem, I
    tried adding Target="Self" to links, but RoboHelp removes the quote
    marks)
    3) Why no Back button? I saw the item about adding a back
    button with JavaScript and will try it. I find the lack of a Back
    button annoying in RoboHelp's own Help, which IMHO is not well
    organized or well-written (am I the last person on earth to
    understand that "display" is a transitive verb? Or that you don't
    open a "dialog" but rather a "dialog box?"

    I really do appreciate your help, and I want to apologize for
    offending anyone. I think my antipathy to RoboHelp began years ago
    with a totally different version, plus, with my current project, I
    came in behind someone else who recommended the company buy
    RoboHelp (at a cost of $1000), started the Help and had very little
    done before she quit and they hired me. My work involves more than
    doing this Help system, but I wish I could have been here to review
    and recommend tools... and maybe I would have ended up with
    RoboHelp anyhow. I don't want to waste the company's $1000
    investment, so I just have to master this tool, even if I do have a
    laundry list of complaints about it.
    Your comments were considerably more helpful to me than the
    RoboHelp Help. I now realize that 1) RoboHelp talks about "frames"
    because a full help window (with TOC) actually uses frames, and 2)
    what I want to do may not be possible.
    Here is what is happening. Our application is not
    Windows-based, but rather uses "portlets" -- a "page" in the
    application may have 7 or 8 portlets that load independently (the
    user can configure his page to have the portlets he wants). The
    user can right-click a portlet to get a menu of options that
    includes "Help." When the user clicks this Help option, he gets a
    small single-topic window, without frames or TOC. The Help file is
    given the same name as the portlet. This is the instruction I got
    from the developers, who showed me how to find the portlet name.
    This is all working just fine.
    Here's the problem: I have links inside those single-topic
    windows. When you click a link inside these windows (the
    context-sensitive help associated with the portlets), the link
    opens a full browser window. The small window with the portlet Help
    remains. The new window does not replace the old window. What I
    intended (and was trying to make happen with those RoboHelp choices
    from "Display in frame" in the Hyperlink window) was for the link
    to replace the previous window -- to appear in the small
    single-topic window.
    When I preview a topic, the links DO open in the same size
    window, but maybe that is not surprising. The application may act
    differently. If RoboHelp can only control how a link behaves when
    the link is in a full (with frames) Help window, then maybe none of
    the "Display in frame" choices will make any difference. Is it
    possible that I just can't have any links in a context-sensitive
    window? Or is this something the developers could change by
    specifiying that windows replace windows?
    Can you see how it seemed to me that I could fix how the
    links should behave in the HTML? It certainly seems logical that a
    simple "target="self" would work, and I did not know why RoboHelp
    was changing the code. Was it to insure that the code would NOT
    work (as in "commenting out" lines of code?) RoboHelp Help is not
    big on explaining what its features are actually doing.
    If I cannot have links inside a context-sensitive,
    single-topic small window, then I need to rethink the design of my
    Help system. The developers gave this very little thought and
    seemed to think the context-sensitive help would be enough to guide
    the users, but I can see that it is not enough. We DO need a full
    (with TOC) Help system, as not all features are just a portlet.
    Some features involve tabbed pages that have no "Help" link. This
    is a very complex EMR (Electronic Medical Records) system, with a
    lot of features that need explaining... So, at present, I am mixing
    the two kinds of Help -- context-sensitive and full Help, with TOC.
    The developers automatically add "Help" to all right-click menus,
    so they are working on a concept of context-sensitive Help. I can
    create a file for all those "help" menu items, but the help will
    not be as helpful as I'd like if I can't put links to related
    topics inside the window.
    I have not tried RoboHelp's "related" button feature because
    I prefer to just put the links in the window than have users do the
    extra step of clicking a button, but I could try that if the
    "related topics" pop-up would give me links that would open inside
    the small window. It just does not seem acceptable ot me to hav
    Help windows going outside the system to a full browser window that
    leaves the previous window open.
    Regarding the question about whether the project files and
    output files are the same -- the output file is clearly different,
    but both use the target=_self format. I don't know if we're using
    the RH CSH interface. I will try to get more information from the
    developers as to whether they have somehow set these windows to
    work this way.
    Regarding creating a new "Window" defintion--- I did look
    into that, and you can specify a "one pane" window, but I don't
    want a Help topic to be confined to one pane. The same topic that
    is a context-senstive topic also appears in the TOC, sowhen the
    user is accessing it from the full Help, the topic should open in
    the right pane, like every other topic accessed this way. The
    "window" definition does let you set a window size and choose to
    make it resizable or not. But it is not this "window" feature that
    is controlling the context-sensitive windows, since they are not
    set to a separate "window" definition, so it is not clear that this
    strategy would actually work.
    Have I explained the problem better? My purpose is to create
    useful and helpful Help. RoboHelp is the tool I've been given to do
    it, and I am not experienced with this tool. If anyone can tell me
    if I can get those links to open in the same window as the previous
    single-topic small window, I would be most grateful. Otherwise, I
    may have to rethink my whole design.
    Again, I am sorry if I was overly critical and offended
    anyone.

  • I installed 4.01 and now when I click on a link in the menus or the seach window, the whole firefox browser window jumps

    This happens when I click on most menu links. For example, if I click on Help and select "About Firefox" the entire browser window jumps. The same goes for if I click on the default search box or on the Google Toolbar search box.
    If I click on something out of Firefox, such as my desktop or an open program, it jumps when I click the Firefox tab on my task bar to return to Firefox.
    When I click a shortcut link, such as in bookmarks, it does not do it.

    For those of you who have tried to clear this problem up with virus scans, various malware scanning programs, tdss rootkiller, etc....I have another possibility. I found another thread on this very forum where someone suggested the problem was in the router...specifically, there were manually entered DNS addresses in the router setup. I logged into my router (192.168.1.1) and sure enough, there were DNS addresses loaded and it was setup to use those DNS addresses. I simply clicked on the option to pull the DNS addresses automatically from my ISP, changed the password, and the problem was gone.

  • My browser window dies, i have to click on th desktop and the go back and "reactvate" the brwser window and then i can click on a link

    Sometimes my browser gets inactive even thou the window is active and I can not click (pointer doesnt switch from arrow to hand) on any links or do anything in the browser. My best "workaround" is to click on the desktop and then go back to the browser window and then I can follow link or similar. But, next time I want to do something I have to repeat the procedure again, click on desktop then back to browser and so on. On some sites with scroll down menys it gets a little tricky since I only get one shot at the time.
    Hope you understand what I´m trying to say, English is my third language .
    i´m running vers. 3.6 and this is on my other Laptop (Toshiba Tecra)

    Does that happen only on web pages that are running a Flash presentation? <br />
    When Flash "steals focus" from Firefox, you need to click outside the Flash presentation in the browser window, to regain focus in Firefox. A major problem arises when the Flash presentation is in the entire browser window, though. The Firefox developers are working on fixing that in Firefox, but it doesn't look like a fix is going to make it into Firefox 4.0, though.

  • Making buttons link to popup browser windows in ActionScript 3

    I am trying to figure out how to make buttons on my flash
    file link to URLs that appear in a window of fixed dimensions (with
    scroller bars) next to my Flash window.
    I am aware that Adobe has instructions for creating pop-up
    browser windows through Flash (
    http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14192)
    However, what I'm trying to do is a bit more complicated,
    since I want to have multiple embedded invisible buttons in the
    Flash window that each take you to a specific URL when you click on
    them. Alternatively I'd be happy if any button click resulted in a
    link to a random selection from a pre-programmed list of URLs.
    Any suggestions? This is for ActionScript 3.

    Hi Im having a simlar problem with creating a button that
    opens up a url link in a blank browser window and keeping it at a
    specific size. here is the code that I'm using.
    my_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN,
    mouseDownHandler);
    function mouseDownHandler(event:MouseEvent):void {
    var urlStr = "my info_page.html";
    if (ExternalInterface.available) {
    ExternalInterface.call( "window.open", urlStr, "_blank",
    "width=400,height=400");
    } else {
    var urlRequest:URLRequest = new URLRequest(urlStr);
    navigateToURL(urlRequest);
    the problem is the window doesn't open when I click on the
    button and I don't know how to fix this
