Microsoft is building a new browser as part of its Windows 10 push

Source
Published on Dec 29th, 2014.
excerpt :
However, if my sources are right, Spartan is not IE 12. Instead, Spartan is a new, light-weight browser Microsoft is building.
Windows 10 (at least the desktop version) will ship with both Spartan and IE 11, my sources say. IE 11 will be there for backward-compatibility's sake. Spartan will be available for both desktop and mobile (phone/tablet) versions of Windows 10, sources say.

I hope it works better than the experimental rendering engine being showcased in Win 10 TP. There are a fair number of forums I can't type into with the experimental mode enabled.
And what about color-management? Will Microsoft make the next iteration of their browser fully color-managed, as, say, Firefox is with gfx.color_management.mode set to 1?

I've just finished building a new website with iWeb, I want to build a new site, how can I save the details from the first site?

Hi There.
I've been building a new website with iWeb. Its now complete, but I will need to keep all the detasils involved as I make amendments from time to time. Now I want to start a new site on a completely different subject. But every time I go to start the new site, it just seems to be 'papering' over the details of the old one. How can I begin a completely new site without overwriting the details of the previous site, and where do I save the original site details to for easy access.
Thanks,
Gerbles

To create a new site in the same domain file use the File ➙ New File menu option.

Is it allowed to use parts of an existing record for building a new song in Garageband, e.g. the rhythm part of that record? Is this what people call ripping or trimming? And if it is allowed, what is the procedure then?

unless you pay royalties to the copyright owner of that song, it's illegal to use someone else's recordings to build your own (which software you use doesn't enter the equation):

File Open Issues - document library pdf file to open in new browser window

Hi
I have a requirement to open the document library containing pdf file to open in new browser window. So far I have tried following steps but could not get it to work.
1. Changing Document library advance setting to open the document in browser (have tried others as well).
2. SharePoint web application setting changed as Permissive instead of Strict. Here the pdf file opens in browser but redirect from document library instead of new window(Also tried adding Target=”_blank” and no change).
3. Executed the powershell script to adding MIME type to see if it works but no change.
$webApp = Get-SPWebApplication http://SharePointSite
If ($webApp.AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes -notcontains "application/pdf")
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "Adding PDF MIME Type..."
$webApp.AllowedInlineDownloadedMimeTypes.Add("application/pdf")
$webApp.Update()
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "Added and saved."
Else
Write-Host -ForegroundColor White "PDF MIME type is already added."
4. Open the Doc library and modified ALLItems.aspx to add Target= “_blank”
5. I have already tried solutions suggested in the link:

Appreciate if there are any working solution from any of you. Many Thanks

I found a solution which works only in the development. No idea when I compared, Browser MIME type is enabled, STRICT browser type is configured for web application. on the document library advance setting, default to open in new browser. Both configurations
are identical but I am able to open pdf file in new window in my developing using jquery script
http://blog.ithinksharepoint.com/2011/02/21/open-pdf-files-from-a-document-library-in-a-new-window/ but the same does not work on production server :(
Any help experts?

Command to open a PDF generated Oracle Report in New browser window

I know this is probably something for the Oracle Forums but I'll ask anyway because I can't find any info out there on this, without some extra work.
I am generating a PDF file from 10g Oracle reports on Linux RHEL 5 and storing the PDF file to the server. I can send that PDF file directly to a printer with the "lpr" command and that part works fine.
What I'm wanting to do now is "View" the PDF from within the server in a new window. We are using RHEL 5 (Linux) platform and I'm trying to see if there is a way to open the file with a "command line" command that will open it in a new browser window or new window period (opening it with Adobe Acrobat).
Does anyone have a command that will do this? Otherwise, how has everyone else been handling this. The idea of just viewing the previously generated PDF Report file will save us overhead on our database servers because they won't have to re-run some of the same reports over and over.
Any help and assistance is appreciated.
Chris

Several options:
- If you only want to show the pdf to the client without printing, use destype=cache and use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT after the RUN_REPORT_OBJECT (for examples search the forms-forum, there are lots)
-If you have to generate the pdf to a file to get it printed, you could
+use WEBUTIL_FILETRANSFER.AS_TO_CLIENT after the printing to transfer the file to the client, then use CLIENT_HOST to view it.
+map the appserver-directory you generate the report to as a virtual directory in the application-server then use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT to directly access the generated file via url.

Want To Have Flash Project Open In New Browser Window

Hi,
My project outputs and plays perfect to Flash (let default to
Flash 7) but when viewing it (via a link from a web page) it opens
in a "next" window and at the end, if you use the X (EXIT) button
from the player control bar it wants to close the browser window
and does not take you back to the webpage (where I have the link to
play). I cannot seem to find an option in the Preferences or during
output to make the player open in a "new" browser window. Is it
possible there is a browser setting for this instead of setting in
Captivate? (IE 6 or 7) Thanks for any help/suggestions!

Hi leh1, and welcome to the User Community for Captivate!
The window in which any content plays is determined by the
code contained for the link,
in the web-page from which it is launched. In a nutshell,
you add these parameters to the link when it is created in the
"Parent" window.
Below is a snippet from a Menu Builder project in which the
links to "Project1" and "Project2" are set to open in a "New"
window, without chrome (note the many "
=no" following an equal sign), at a size of 720 pixels by
540 pixels ... the snip below shows a link to "Project1.htm", a
document containing a Captivate movie. I have bolded the specific
entries that control the type window ("OpenCustomLink") and the
size of that window ("width=720,height=540"):
<P style="cursor: pointer; cursor: hand; position:
absolute; left: 90px; top: 149px; text-decoration: none; font:
normal 18pt Arial; color: #000000" title="Project 1" onclick="
OpenCustomLink('project1.htm', '_blank',
'scrollbars=no,status=no,
titlebar=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,resizable=yes,
fullscreen=no,
width=720,height=540'); "
onmouseover="this.style.color='#0000FF'; "
onmouseout="this.style.color='#000000';">Project 1</P>
(some spaces inserted to avoid horizontal scroll)
All of which is to say, the target window is controlled from
the link in the parent document. I wouldn't suggest you just
copy-paste the above code, as I took liberties with it. I
would suggest that you can do this yourself with your own
HTML editor (Dreamweaver, etc.), or even better, get your local
web-guru to do it for you.
All the best!!

Managed Attachments - creating a customCO for 'Managed Attachments' and opening a new browser/window as ActionEvent through processFormRequest()

Hi All,
I am working on 'Managed Attachments' integration of Oracle E-Business Suite with Oracle WebCenter Content and I am very new to EBS.
As per the customer requirement, we needed to enable the Managed Attachments on an SIT page (Employee Self Service --> Special Information-> and click on 'Add' for any of the 'Special Information' section) and the values they fill on these pages need to be passed to webcenter content. As you know these segment data will not be inserted into the database until the user clicks on 'Submit' button from the review page,
But the customer wants to save it on the 'Special Information' add page itself.
Managed Attachments is an out of the box feature offered by Oracle WebCenter Content to replace FND Attachments functionality. Instead of storing the attachments in EBS, it will store to WebCenter Content.
My requirements are as follows
1) Enable the managed attachments on he special information 'add' page (e.g Company Property, Disabilities etc),- I am able to do this
2) The data user fills in these fields , when user clicks on 'Managed Attachments' button , these values should be passed to the URL for managed attachments(which is already set on the button through processRequest() method when the page gets loaded) and thus pass to webcenter content
With these requirements, the challenges i am facing are
1) Since the user clicks on 'Managed Attachments' before even he/she clicks on 'Apply' button, how do I capture these values? can pageContext.getParameter('id') can get these?
(i have already tried to do this in processFormRequest() method and i found that it is working for LOV fields but not for text fields)
2) if i can get the values in processFormRequest(), how can i open a browser/window for the new URL()
e.g, i wanted to write something like this and the finalURL is what i wanted to open in a new browser or window as the actionEvent
public void processFormRequest(OAPageContext pageContext, OAWebBean webBean) {
super.processFormRequest(pageContext, webBean);
String param1 = pageContext.getParameter(“Param1”);
String param2 = pageContext.getParameter(“param2”);
String redirectURL = “http://rstnssiovm0072.us.oracle.com:8000/OA_HTML/OA.jsp?page=/oracle/apps/ak/ucm/axf/webui/RedirectToAxfPG&bypassPageCounterIncr=Y&retainAM=Y”;
String paramURL = “&Parameter1=”+ param1+”&Parameter2=”+ param2;
String finalURL = redirectURL+paramURL;
Code part to open the url in a new browser/window
If anybody can help me with these part, it will be a great help
thanks a lot in advance
Regards
Poornima

Hi Poornima ,
Has your prob resolved ? Have you made Managed attachment working via standard adapter as per UCM Admin guide ?
Configuring the Managed Attachments Solution - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
1. You have first store in some VO if you want to pass this metadata to UCM page , other wise it will not work .Take temp table /VO to store first then same can passed to UCM page as input parameters
2.What needs to be passed , please refer webcenter guide with key examples given
Once it is configured properly automatically params will be associated with URL which actually will open UCM page with metadata ( params) being passed.
Thanks,
Ashish

How do I open a new browser window from Flash

I wish to open a new browser window from Flash and when the new window closes to return to the location from whence I started.
ThomasChen

The command to open a new window would be the "_blank" part of a command to link to a web page in the code below.
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.anothersite.com", "_blank"));
As far as the new window closing and getting back to where you were in the original window, I don't understand where that original window might have gone to... You should be wherever you last left it.

Call form in new browser window

Hello all,
I am trying to call a form that will appear in a new browser window, but be part of the same forms application. I am able to call the applet by using web.show_document, however you must log on to the forms services before you can access the form. I would simply like to click a button and have it call a form that opens in a new window. I am doing this for our data entry techs that need to utilize dual monitors looking at 2 separate tables.
Thanks in advance,
-Jordan

Be aware that there are limitations with Forms if you are trying to run the application on the secondary monitor. Known issues related to dual monitors have been corrected in the upcoming patch set for 10.1.2. This patch is due for release soon (exact date unknown). A one-off patch is also available for 9.0.4.3.
Take a look at this thread for more details:

Open pdf's, documents in new browser window SharePoint 2010

Hi all,
when a user clicks on pdf's, documents, html pages etc in a document library I need them to open in a new browser window. I've found lots of articles on how to do it in 2007 but none work in 2010. I know its not an out of the box function but people
have done it with Java script or adding code to the document library allitems.aspx web part, I just can't replicate those steps in 2010.
I'm not a developer or anything but can put code in the right place using SharePoint designer 2010.
Pulling my hair out at the mo,
please help
thanks in advance

Create a Document Library called ScriptLibrary.
Download the Jquery library here: http://ajax.aspnetcdn.com/ajax/jQuery/jquery-1.4.4.min.js
Create a new file called: OpenPDF.js
Paste the following Code in the file:
$("A[href$=.pdf]").click(function() {
window.open(this.href);
Upload both files to your newly created ScriptLibrary.
The ScriptLibrary should have 2 files: jquery-1.4.4.min.js and OpenPDF.js
Navigate to the List Page that has the PDF's that you need opened in a new window.
Click Site Actions: Edit Page,
Insert > Content Editor WebPart
Click to Edit the HTML Source of the HTML WebPart, then paste in the following to reference the two files you uploaded to your Script Library:
<script type="text/javascript" src="/ScriptLibrary/jquery-1.4.4.min.js" ></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/ScriptLibrary/OpenPDF.js" ></script>
*The src needs to point to the files you uploaded
Save the page then click on a PDF, it should open in a new window.
You can then export that ContentEditorWebPart to your webpart gallery, and just insert the webpart on any page that needs the same functionality.

Global Policy Link Does Not Open A New Browser Window

Hi All,
On 11.5.10.2 version
Global Policy Link which is located at the top of most iExpenses pages is
supposed to open a dynamic web page (Core policy manuals) on a new browser when
someone clicks on it. Currently this link, when clicked on it, brings the
correct page on the same browser.
I need the page to be opened in new window.
if not so, i need a alternate solution to open in new window
Thanks in advance,
Vali

Respectfully, that answer isn't particularly helpful. I have already demonstrated that middle-clicking (mouse wheel click) will open a new instance of FF, and other programs. This was true before the upgrade from FF4 to FF6, and is true on all my VM builds (Windows 7 default install with nothing but FF installed).
Nevertheless, I've tried shift-left-click, and it does not open a new instance. It will only open a new instance if I pin FF to the taskbar, which I have already stated I do not want to do. This new behaviour is unique to FF. Other applications (Word, Excel, Internet Explorer, whatever) all behave as expected. It is only Firefox that is misbehaving, and it is only misbehaving since the upgrade.
My issue is that FF has changed its behaviour with respect to middle-clicking since upgrading from 4 to 6. I'd welcome helpful comments about getting FF to behave.

Open view in a new browser window

Hi all,
I want to open a view in a new browser window.
I try this two code:
1)IWDWindow window=
wdControllerAPI.getComponent().getWindowManager().createExternalWindow(
          "http://www.google.it","google",false);
but in this case i can only open an url...
2)IWDWindowInfo windowInfo = wdComponentAPI.getComponentInfo().findInWindows("ExternalWindow");
IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createWindow(windowInfo,true);
but in this case it open an internal windows, not an external new browser windows...
What can i do?
Thanks!

Hello Andrea,
you should call not "http://www.google.it" but result of something like this:
     public static String resolveURL(String dcName, String applicationName) throws EntryNotFoundException, WDURLException
          IWDDeployableObject deployableObject = WDDeployableObject.getDeployableObject(dcName);
          if(null!=deployableObject && WDDeployableObjectState.STARTED.equals(deployableObject.getState()))
               boolean found = false;
               int i = 0;
               WDDeployableObjectPart[] parts = deployableObject.getParts(WDDeployableObjectPartType.APPLICATION);
               if(parts!=null)
                    for(;i<parts.length;i++)
                         if( applicationName.equals(parts<i>.getShortName()))
                              found = true;
                              break;
               if(found)
                    return WDURLGenerator.getApplicationURL(parts<i>, null);
               else
                    throw new EntryNotFoundException( "Application '" + applicationName + "' not found" );
          } else {
               throw new EntryNotFoundException( "Application '" + applicationName + "' not found in '" + dcName + "'" );

Display Integrated Oracle Report in New Browser Window

Hi All,
I am using APEX 3.0.1 and Reports Builder 10g and have integrated my Oracle Reports (.rdf) successfully with APEX.
The trouble is that the report output (in PDF format) is opening in the same browser window as my APEX application and I would like to spawn a new browser window to display the report output.
The report is being called from a button with a Target of URL and the URL Target is:
&REPORTS_URL.&module=DEBITNOTE_REP.rdf&destype=cache&desformat=pdf&P_DEBITNOTEID=&P73_DEBITNOTEID.
Kind Regards,
Gary.

Hi Garry,
Had to do the same thing last week.
1. Create a javascript function that accepts the report parameters and calls the window.open function for the reports URL
2. Change the URL on the report button to call this new function
It might also be worth using a cmdfile (see reports doco) to simplify the URL
cheers,
Ron
