Open a new browser in Java?

Like window.open("URI",...) in JavaScript, Any method in Java is available to open a new browser(window)?

well u can acheive this by using 'target=_blank' in href tag whether you call href from servlet / jsp.

    The best audience for applets is people off the internet. 'People off the internet' might be using a computer that has no (what was it?) 'open.html' in the root of the C: drive. In fact (shock horror) they may not even be running Windows, and would therefore probably have no 'C:' drive at all.
    If you do not intend to distribute this to people off the web, an application makes a lot more sense, but even then, you cannot rely on the document being there unless you 'put it there' (during installation, for instance).
    As the other poster intimated, applets can load documents off the local disk as long as they are trusted. Here is an example*, but note that it is not so rash as to presume any particular path or file, and instead leaves it to the user to choose the document to display.
    * The short code can be seen at SDNShare on the [Defensive Loading of Trusted Applets|http://sdnshare.sun.com/view.jsp?id=2315] post.
    On the other hand, a sandboxed applet can load any document coming from its own server via URL, or get showDocument(URL) to work. In that case, the JRE must recognize that the URL is from its own server, so the best way to form URLs for applet use is via the URL constructor
    new URL(getDocumentBase(), "path/to/open.html");That is how I form the URL in this [ sandboxed example of formatting source|http://pscode.org/fmt/sbx.html?url=/jh%2FHelpSetter.java&col=2&fnt=2&tab=2&ln=0]. Of course, in this case the applet loads the document, then parses the text to draw the formatted version, but the point is that an URL produced this way will work with showDocument(URL).
    I am pretty sure showDocument() in an applet off the internet will work with an URL pointing to a foreign (not its own) server, but it will not be able to load documents off the end user's local disks.
    I suggest a couple of things.
    - Try to express this problem in terms of what feature it is that you want to offer the end user. Your question jumps directly to a bad strategy for achieving ..who knows what? An example of a feature is "Shows the applet 'help' files on pressing F1".
    - A good way to indicate interest in a solution is to offer [Duke stars|http://wikis.sun.com/display/SunForums/Duke+Stars+Program+Overview] to match that interest.
    Edit 1:
    ..and please figure out how to use the CODE tags.

  • How can I open a new browser window!!!  Very Challenging!!!

    I have a form (name=MAIN) with a submit button (name=Button A). Button A opens a new browser window (name=SEARCH), via an HTML form target tag (<FORM TARGET=A>). Window SEARCH has multiple submit buttons (10-15). Each button has a different action which is handled by a servlet (form name and button name are passed to a servlet as a hidden field in the form to determine the action), which is setup to be an action handler. When a button in the SEARCH window is clicked the results are retrieved from an Oracle database and should be displayed in the text fields in window MAIN.
    For example, some results may be displayed in window SEARCH (_self) and and other results may be required to be sent to window MAIN depending on the button clicked.
    How can I setup window SEARCH so each button can have a different target window (some may be window MAIN or other windows)? Using a form tag for each button doesn't give desirable results. Is there a way to do this with JSP or some form of Java code?
    A form tag can only have one target. Basically I have one form with multiple submit buttons. How can I get it to send each submit buttons results to a specific window?
    Thanks.

    <!-- try this -->
    <script language="JavaScript1.2">
    function mysubmit(mytarget){
    document.myform.target=mytarget;
    document.myform.submit();
    function validation(myform){
    //validation stuff
    return [true | false];
    </script>
    <form target='none' name='myform' action='myaction.jsp' method='post' [onsubmit='return validation(this)']>
    <input type=button name='submit1' value='submit1' onclick='mysubmit("target1")'>
    <input type=button name='submit2' value='submit2' onclick='mysubmit("target2")'>
    <input type=button name='submit3' value='submit3' onclick='mysubmit("target3")'>
    <input type=button name='submit4' value='submit4' onclick='mysubmit("target4")'>
    </form>

  • Unable to Open a New Browser Window

    I have a couple users who are having trouble logging in to Discoverer on new PCs. They are using Internet Explorerer 8. They are able to get to the login screen, but when the hit connect (or Go) they get an error: "Unable to open a new browser window. Ensure that you do not have popup windows disabled for this site."
    Obviously the first thing I had them do was turn off the popup blocker all together. But they still get the error (even after they restart their PC). Other than that, is there something I am missing in how they need to configure IE8? I'm personally used to using IE6 at work and don't know much about configuration setting for IE8.
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Exactly not sure,see if there are any pop-up blockers still exists,if so try turning pop-up on and off and check it.One more thing what java plug in are you using?? May be it perisists due to java also.
    Best Wishes,
    Kranthi.

  • Create or open a new browser from a servlet

    Hi everybody(sorry my english is so terrible), i have one problem .It`s possible to create ,instance or open a new browser from a servlet without javascript?.

    Hi everybody(sorry my english is so terrible), i have
    one problem .It`s possible to create ,instance or
    open a new browser from a servlet without javascript?.Well, sorta. You have to create a link with a target to "_blank" that the user clicks on. For example:
    Some Page
    will open somePage.jsp in a new browser window. There would be no way, other then js to do it automatically (and often those are blocked, now-a-days with pop-up blockers), flash (can be blocked as well, requires a plugin to use, costs money to get the developement kit), or an applet (java program embeded in web page, requires a plugin, can be blocked). Or some other client-side script/application. (ie servlets run on the server so they can't interact with the client's computer. You need something on the client's computer to do the job).

  • RoboHelp HTML 8  - avoid opening a new browser window

    How do I avoid opening a new browser window every time I call the context sensitive help from within Java?
    I am using Robohelp HTML 8 with IE8
    I am calling it this way from Java:
    RoboHelp_CSH.RH_ShowHelp(0, "C:\\\RoboHelp\\!SSL!\\WebHelp\\XHelp_File.htm", RoboHelp_CSH.HH_HELP_CONTEXT, 2);

    Hi,
    Welcome to Adobe forum,
    As I understand you are trying to open the hyperlinks in a new window instead of a tab.
    Well it is possible in Robohelp 8 HTML
    Here are the steps which you need to follow.
    1. Select the text Right click on it and then select Insert Hyperlink.
    Once you click on the Insert Hyperlink another Popup window will appear in your screen.
    You need to check this screenshot and select the appropriate option.
    Try and generate the Webhelp and see if that helps you,
    I hope that will resolve your issue.Please reply if that resolves your issue.
    Thanks

  • How to open a new browser window without toolbar, location, and menu bars from AIR?

    I have the following problem in my Flex+AIR application. I need to embed an ActiveX component that has JavaScript API inside my application. I tried to embed it inside <mx:HTML> component but unfortunately, AIR doesnot support plug-ins or ActiveX controls. So I've decided to open it in a new browser window. I tried navigateToURL(...) method but it has two problems - it is opening a new tab in the existing browser window and there is no way for me to configure the new browser window appearance, like removing toolbar, menu bar, location bar, etc. Then I tried to open a new window from JavaScript running inside <mx:HTML> component using window.open(...) API but it doesn't open a new window at all.
    Is there any way for me to open a new browser window without toolbar, location bar, etc. (which will run ActiveX control, so it cannot be AIR window) from inside AIR?
    Best regards,
    Arkady.

    You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
    *Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
    Note that Windows hides some file extensions by default.
    Among them are .html and .ini and .js and .txt, so you may only see file name without file extension.
    You can see the real file type (file extension) in the properties of the file via the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer.

  • Opening a new browser window in APEX

    Hi.
    I am trying to open a new browser window in APEX (v2.1) for a new Navigation Bar Entry.
    What I did is the following:
    1) Created the new Navigation Bar Entry
    2) On the properties of this entry I put the Target Type: "URL"
    and on the Target: javascript:window.open('f?p=&APP_ID.:63:&APP_SESSION.:::::' , 'Despre','scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=400,height=600');
    when I click on my Navigation Bar Entry, the page 63 opens on the same window,NOT on a NEW browser window.
    Can you please help ?

    It seems that I found the answer.
    I had to do the following:
    javascript:(window.open('f?p=&APP_ID.:63:&APP_SESSION.:::::', 'Despre','Scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=400,height=600')).focus();
    and then logout and login back in the application and it worked.

  • Can only open one link at a time; any page in new tab will seem to load but appears blank. I have to open a new browser to go to a new page. Why?

    This just began to happen yesterday. I have a MacBook Pro 10.7.5.
    I can always get to the first page that I open in a new browser, but any page after that that I try to open in a new tab will seem to load but the page is blank.
    This does not just happen with one website I have tried myriad of different sites.. only the first tab loads in a new browser. I am having to open a new browser if i want to go to another link - very frustrating..

  • Pdf links will not open in new browser window

    I have created a pdf document in Acrobat 9 Pro that is password protected. You must enter the password to open it. In this document there are perhaps 15 links to other pdf documents. I set up each of the links to open in a new window. The links work as expected in Acrobat, each opening in a new window, however, when I posted the documents to the web, the links open in the same window as the original document. This would not be a big issue if the original document were not password protected, but each time the user clicks on a link, it takes him out of the original document. To get back to the original document requires re-entering the password. This is a major irritation with so many links.
    I know that you can set Acrobat to display the documents in its own window rather than in the browser, but my users don't know that. Control clicking on a pdf link does not open it in a new window as it would with an HTML link. Is there a simple fix to this problem that does not involve user intervention?

    Well, I came up with a solution, thanks to Ted Padova who offers a simple JavaScript solution on his blog at http://www.acrobatusers.com/blogs/tedpadova/opening-pdfs-new-browser-windows.
    The solution is clearly laid out even for beginners, if you know how to create a link or button.
    It seems to me that a prime objective of Adobe in developing Acrobat would be to have it behave the same way in free-standing mode and as a plug-in. In this case it does not, and obviously, it has not for the last forty-eleven years that Acrobat has been on the market. Maybe some day they will get around to a fix for this obvious problem. In the meantime, read Ted's blog and be happy we have guys like him who can solve these problems.
