Links to videos open 2 windows in browser

Hi,
Why is that when I link a video from youtube or other sites, (using light) the browers open 2 windows of the same file and run at the same time.
I cannot firue out were is the second link created.
I requested open a new window so the website was maintained. http://alechadesignscom.businesscatalyst.com/media.html

Hi
As we have checked and tested the concern, It appears to be a bug which leading to this. We will fix this in future versions, in the meantime you may use slideshow widgets as a workaround and hyperlink the images.
Regards,

Firefox 4 stops opening new windows after browser window dragged to second display

Firefox 4 stops opening new windows after browser window dragged to second display. It's weird. Behavior is fine until I drag any browser window to the attached second display, and after this point it stops opening new windows but will still open new tabs in the same window. Restart fixes it until I drag the window back to the second display.
"Show all bookmarks" stops working too--won't open a new window.
This is after clean reinstall with total deletion of any Firefox/Mozilla folders and the previously installed app and a restart of the computer.
Mac OS X 10.6.7
Firefox 4

Pretty sure this is either:
'''Bug 644733'''
or
'''Bug 609405'''
(...and they may be reporting the same thing.)

When I started to open firefox, windows pops "browser settings change"

when I started to open firefox, windows pops "browser settings change" .. and the window can not be deleted or removed .. I want to ask how to remove it ..
in the window that says "an unknown change was detected on your browser's search settings:
keep my current settings
i am aware of this change and approve it
I've been picking and pressing yes but the window was still not working .. what should i do .. thank you

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.
Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".
In the Compatibility tab, make sure that Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" is not selected.
You also need to check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program directory.
If you can't make the changes then you need to start Windows Explorer as Administrator.

Add Attachment link doesn't open attachment window

I'm trying to debug a custom page, written by someone else. It's in the recruitment module, and delivered subpages HRS_CE_A_RES_SBP and are included to allow attach/view/delete of attachments.
When the Add Attachment link is clicked, it should open a window that lets the user enter a filename or browse, but on this custom page, nothing happens.
Because the delivered code is unmodified, I suspect that there is some setup that hasn't been done. The component does contain table HRS_APP_ATTACH, which includes subrecord FILE_ATTACH_SBR. The component also contains record FILE_ATTACH_WRK.
Can someone suggest my next step? Thanks.

Generally Add attachment issues are enountered while setting up new regions for the reason URL not updated while setting up new region.
In this table PSFILE_ATTDET a row is inserted temporarily with Oprid and deleted once the specified file is trasferred mentioned url successfully.
Example: AddAttachment(&URL_ID, &ATTACHSYSFILENAME, &FILEEXTENSION, &ATTACHUSERFILE, &FILESIZE)
works when &ATTACHUSERFILE =file-name and &URL_ID=gerurl(url.urlname) are given properly.Please check these parameters.

Email link in AS2 opens Safari window

Does anyone know how to stop a browser window opening up when the email link is clicked? I'm using a button with this script:
on(release){
getURL("mailto: [email protected] ");
Thanks

Try testing it live on a server. Often when testing locally opening other windows/applications doesn't behave as desired.

TOC Links won't open New Window, Whole Page

RoboHelp HTML 11, Internet Explorer 11. Multiscreen HTML5 layout.
I'm trying to experiment with the different ways of opening links: New Window, Whole Page, Same Frame, etc.
Yesterday the different variations worked the way they should, but today every link in the TOC opens as if set to "Default (none)".
As for Links on topic pages, "New Window" opens a new tab, and "Whole Page" seems to go to Default (including the sidebar, which I gather should not be there).
Any ideas?
-- Shawn

Hi,
Responsive or Multiscreen?
For the HTML5 version, the frame options for links won't work.
New Window should open a new tab. That is as expected.
The rest will work like a regular link.
The frame options really are just for WebHelp only. And only the new window and whole page make any sense.
Kind regards,
Willam

Firefox Nightly unable to open new window in browser

I have downloaded the 64 bit version of the firefox nightly from here: http://nightly.mozilla.org/
I am running win 7 64 bit.
Problem I have been getting is whenever I want a new window open to have on another screen it never loads. This is getting really annoying now and I have almost had enough. I had been using firefox 32 bit but it stopped loading flash videos and youtube videos thats why I moved to the firefox nightly build.
Also most of the time firefox doesnt close properly, I have to end the process using task manager to start the firefox nightly browser.
Also whenever I open a new window from scratch it always brings up the 'restore previous pages' part.
Please can you help me resolve this issue.
Thanks

There is no 64 bit Firefox version on the nightly.mozilla.org site, only a 32 bit version.
Although there is a 64 bit version compiled, those are only meant to make sure that the compilation isn't broken. The 64 bit versions for Windows aren't tested like they are for Mac and Linux, so you use them on your own risk. You should stay with the 32 bit versions for Windows.

Email links will not open in my Firefox browser

Hello, Using my Firefox web browser when I am in my emails. Inside the email body and there is a link to click on inside. The Firefox will not open the link page, it comes up as an error. However, if i right click and open in a new window. Firefox will then open the link and send me to that page.
I then decided to try IE and when I double click the link within the email body, it opens it up with no issues at all.
Firefox is my default browser.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== Two days ago

Hello,
I have checked all the above trouble shooting suggestions. I still am having the same problem.
I use Firefox as my default browser and have it checked off as per your last email. I am only having this problem in my emails. I cannot open url links in my emails anymore by double clicking on the mouse. I have to right click the mouse and choose open in a new window. It will then open that url link and take me to the website link.
If I try this by double clicking the url link, it takes me to a blank page with this "https://mail.go....er=ohh14rw8mbn4"
at the top of the page in the tab.

Launched links are not opening new window?

OK- The web links inserted as click boxes work. The problem
is that they open in the same window and the user will get lost and
re-launch to get back into the course/project.
The browser window launched by our LMS is different and does
not have the typical navigation/menu features that I am used to...
Any suggestions to correct this?

Welcome to our community, andejb
In addition to what Lee offered, I'll add the following:
When you edit the object you are linking from and click that
button with the down arrow to choose New, click it again after you
have done this. You will see an option labeled "Continue Playing
Project". Most folks like to click this option to turn it off.
Otherwise, clicking the link will release the pause from your
project and it will continue playing while your user is viewing the
URL you linked them to. Turning the option off keeps the movie at
its position until they are ready to proceed.
Cheers... Rick

Problems opening secondary window in browser

I created a page that has a second browser open when the link
is clicked. However, the action does not work when tested on our
server. I used the "on click" and "NewBrowser" options in the
behaviors window. Also, I hae tried all the target options...still
no luck.

Do you mean OpenBrowser behavior?
Can you post your URL, or code?
What is it you're trying to achieve?

I want to insert thumbnails in my page that are links to videos in popup windows

I can do this by a hyperlink but getting a thumbnail from the video and making it a link I am struggling with. I could sort the thumbnail out as an image, but it is the link i don't know how to do. I can't seem to get hotspots involved with the js link as in:
<script type="text/javascript">
        // Popup window code
        function newPopup2(url) {
        popupWindow = window.open(
        url,'popUpWindow','height=700,width=800,left=10,top=10,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,toolb ar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=yes')
        </script> <a href=
        "JavaScript:newPopup2('pop.htm');">Link text</a>
This works like a charm, but I can't swap the "link text" for an thumbnail and hotspot or however it is done.
Help would be great.

Create a Pop-Up window in DW with the Behaviors Panel. See link for details.
http://alt-web.blogspot.com/2012/03/create-pop-up-window-in-dreamweaver.html
You shouldn't need an image map for this. A single thumbnail image (or text) can be linked to a pop-up page.

MediaView doesn't display video; opens new window instead

Hello,
I'm having some trouble working with the MediaView/MediaPlayer classes.
Using Netbeans' composer, I've configured correctly (I think) a MediaView component so that it should load the MediaPlayer, which loads a local Media file. However, when executed, the MediaView area just remains blank, while a new "ActiveMovie" window opens, rendering the video.
I've done some searching over here and on google but I really haven't found any solution. I know the ActiveMovie window is probably just DirectShow opening the video; why, though, does this happen, if I explicitly designed the application so that the MediaView component alone displayed the video?
It's as if, by instanciating a Media component, the code was issuing a Open File system call and Windows - not JVM - was doing the rest.
Any help is very welcome.
Thanks,
Leo

I don't know how to fix it, assuming that is even possible without rewriting DirectShow or the JavaFX platform, but I can tell you about my own experiences with this issue.
I was trying to figure out a way to run WebM video files in JavaFX and installed a Direct Show filter from Xiph to enable it. It sort of worked, except that it caused the same issue you just described. I tried playing other video formats handled by Direct Show, and they ran normally, so I'm assuming that it is an issue specific to some of the filters.Thank you for your reply, I think now I've finally understood what the problem is!
Indeed, I've ran into some cases where one tried to use recent HD Youtube videos (VP8-encoded, which is what WebM uses: see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WebM#Services) and have also failed.
Apparently, JavaFX only really supports VP6 videos. Probably that's the reason the SimpleMediaPlayer sample (http://javafx.com/samples/SimpleVideoPlayer/) uses a VP6 video, and not, say, an WMV or whatever other encode.
The main problem is the strange deceitfulness of all documentation related to video playback on JavaFX: while most articles and docs state rather ambiguously that "any video supported by the system will run on the JavaFX platform", only one document explicitly states that that's not quite the case:
Video Codecs
Cross-Platform: On2 VP6
Windows XP and Vista: All the codecs supported by Windows Media Player
Mac OS X 10.4 and 10.5: All the codecs supported by Mac through Core Video
Ubuntu 8.04 and OpenSolaris 2009.06: All the codecs supported by GStreamer.http://download.oracle.com/javafx/1.2/tutorials/media/format.html#audio
Well, that clears things up! Natively, JavaFX only really supports On2 VP6 encoding, whilst any other encoding will depend solely on the operating system and 3rd party software installed. So that's the reason why, when trying to open any other video which isn't VP6-encoded, JavaFX calls the 3rd party codec, which opens an ActiveMovie DirectShow window, failing to display the player in the appropriate MediaView container. Please do correct me if I'm wrong; I've only been playing with JavaFX for a day or so!
The deceitfulness is that JavaFX is fanfared as a "ultimate, play-all media API", which lead me to thinking that it would easily handle the most popular video encoders. This assumption is enforced if we remember that the old Java Media Framework (JMF) API did indeed suport MPEG-1.
Once again, thanks!

Clicking links tries to open Opera as my browser

Any link in mail tries to open Opera. I've never used Opera, and of course it comes up with a "Opera has crashed" with "ignore" or "report".
I can't find a place anywhere in System Prefs or Mail prefs to set my default browser - Firefox has been set as the default from inside Firefox prefs, but this seems to have no affect on Mail at all.
Help?

change the default browser in safari (not Mail) preferences->general.

When I want to mail a web-page or link firefox keeps opening new windows and cannot be stopped.

My laptop is a Samsung R730 (quite happy with it). I use Eudora for e-mailing. If I want to mail a web-page or link and click under 'file'to send it, Firefox starts opening new tabs without stopping up to over a hundred. I have to brutally switch off my lap-top, start agaiu. Restart Firefox which wants to open all the old tabs, click it off quickly. After that I can reopen to normal.

You get that problem if you select the Firefox program to handle a file if you get an "open with" dialog.

Linking PDFs to open popup windows

I am working on a project at work in which we have PDF graphics in-line within a web page. I want to add a link to one of the graphics to call a custom javascript function that is in the page to display a special popup window. First off, is this possible? And secondly, if it is, how do I tell it to call the javascript that is in the html page?
