Open Browser Window Action changes main window also

I am using the Open Browser Window action on an <a> tag (href) and not only does it open a new browser window, it also changes the content of my main window to the linked page. I can't figure out how to make it stop doing this! Any help? (fyi - I am an HTML rookie, so be gentle)
Thanks!

Without seeing the code it's more difficult to explain. But basically if you look at the code just change the href to "#" instead of the linked page. That should solve the issue.

How to change main window title of oracle ebs

Hi all,
Kindly tell me how can we change the main title of oracle ebs 11i.
Thanks

Hello Gloscott,
Welcome to the Aperture discussion forum. Congratulations. You just hijacked a thread. That's bad form for 2 reasons. First, you added a message to a thread called "How to change main window view" which makes it look like you had information to add that thread, and you did not. Second, people who can help you are more likely to read a message that has your problem in the subject than they are to read this message. I.e., you won't get what you want if you ask for something else.
That being said, when you repost your query in a new thread, you'll have to be more specific. A "Frame" is not in the regular Aperture terminology.

I always have many tabs open in FF, and rely on it restoring them each time I close/open it again. Sometimes I'll have a second window open and will close the main window first, losing a record of tabs I had open. Is there a way around this?

Seems like when FF restores a session, it restores the session of the last window open. If you use tabs as a way of keeping a list of things to do or look at, you have to be careful if you have a second window open to close the second window before your main one, or you will lose your list. I'm absent minded though and do this all the time. The only way to prevent this is bookmark all my tabs once a day, but I tend to forget to do even that. Any workaround for this?

When you re-open Firefox and choose Restore Session, by default it picks up your most-recently-open window, and the other windows should then show up in Recently Closed Windows.
The Firefox add-on Session Manager lets you manage how many closed windows and closed tabs are saved, in case it's not enough.

Portal session still exist in child window after logout main window

Hello community,
here's a short summary about our business scenario:
We use performance management (SAP HCM) within our SAP ERP 6.0 and SAP NW Portal 7.0.
With the application performance management we use some bsp- and webdynpro-iviews from the business package MSS.
Some of these applications opens a second portal window (child windows) for doing the work.
If the user logoff only the main portal windows with the "logout"-link and also close this window (e.g. he forgot to close the child windows) the user have the possibility to make changes (e.g. in the opened performance management document) in the child window.
This behavior isn't allowed according our company principles. If the user logout on any portal window (also at creating of new portal sessions with STRG+N) all the sessions of the user should be terminated.
Which possibilites do I have to solve this problem?
Thanks for your help!
Kind regards,
Bernd

Hello,
yes, I found a solution.
In the iView-parameter you can put in the following value:
PortalSessionID = <ClientWindowID>
This value ensures that in the opend window no changes are possible.
In the opend child window there is now a pop up to log on to the ERP-system.
Kind regards,
Bernd

hi cg soft.
welcome to our little, quiet sea-side developers community. (where people are nice and the pharmacies are open late)
i can't understand whether the problem you're describing is in regards to a custom made window (pop up), a palette plug-in, or the ECW.
this is a long thread that deals with a lot of different issues, but also goes into details on creating os level windows:
http://forums.adobe.com/message/3337511#3337511
at the end if it you'll find this very useful video, courtesy of gutsblow:

he shows how to create windows using cocoa.
if you're not dealing with an os level window then... what exactly is the problem?

New message windows always behind main window

If I click to create a new message, it always appears behind the main window. At first I though it wasn't doing anything at all - but when I looked in the Window menu I realised that the windows were at the back, hidden. Any way to fix this?

Geoff,
I also have been frustrated by the problem of a mail link opening beneath an already open safari web page. I also have spaces setup with safari and mail to open in different windows. If I set them to appear in the same space the problem is fixed although I expect this is a bug. Thanks for he tip about spaces,
Jon.

Not that hard. What have you tried so far?
You just need to call a VI that has the Show Front Panel When Called property set and make sure the Close Afterward If Originally Closed subproperty is also set. These are in VI Properties|Windows Appearance.

SAP Script: Include text in MAIN window prints outside MAIN window margins

Hi,
We're facing a peculiar issue. We call a text element in the MAIN window of an SAP Script form using FM WRITE_FORM.
The element has 2 includes.
The problem is that when the content of any of the 2 includes is large enough, the include text prints overflows outside the MAIN window margins on the first page and into the area of the footer window of the same page. It does not automatically flow to the next page MAIN window.
We have checked that the MAIN window and FOOTER window margins do not overlap. Infact they are quite far from each other.
We have tried stuff like using a forced PROTECT, change the para format etc, but nothing solves the problem.
Does anyone have any idea?

You do not need to use the subroutine READ_ORDER_TEXT to get another text name because you already have it: TMP_TXNAM2 .
Pass this value back to your SAPscript, and it is okay.
Or you can even check the text object is empty or not, if no text is found, print 2 empty lines:
still use your subroutine to read the text, if no line is found, set TMP_TXNAM2 to empty, otherwise, no change,
In SAPscript, check the value is empty or not, then print 2 empty line or the text object...

How to pop new window in running main window

i have to popup a sub windopw in main window....and i need to plot common data to be printed on front panal...
i am usind daq ...can i share same daq in main and sub window...hao??or can i share some calculated value in main and sub window of labview.,,pleasehelp me fast

As KoenR has said - you can use SubVIs and set them to 'Show front panel when called' which will make them show as new windows in your application.
As for sharing the data, you could use something like a notifier (under synchronisation) for broadcasting the data to the SubVI. If you create the notifier in your main application, with a send notification VI and then pass the reference to the notifier into the SubVI when you call it which has a 'wait on notification' VI it will then receive the data form the main loop.
If you look in the LabVIEW examples under 'notifiers' you will find 'Pass Data with Notifiers' which demonstrates how to use notifiers to pass data to SubVIs.

You can do that.But main window is must.
Create a text element and please check it maynot overflow if so data will be truncated.
For not printing main window :
Do one thing set the main window margint to the botom of the form.
Then create a text element in main element

Changing Main window tet elements of MEDRUCK?

Hi all,
I am doing sap script to display PO . I copied MEDRUCK and created the form.
But it is giving only one line item details in the output. The mistake i did is , i totally commented the
code of standard form and written own code with out any standard text elements.
Is it possible to display all items in above procedure ? Else how to know where to modify the standard code.
Please explain clearly as i have no idea on this text elements of standard form.
Thanks,
Vamshi.

Purchasing/MEDRUCK is a bit complicated. Different conditions will trigger different text elements (stock items vs consignment, free vs cost, etc). Unless you change the print programs you can't have everything print from one element. I'd suggest only commenting out things you fully understand and know you do not need (don't comment out the text element itself, just the contents).

Stop document windows snapping to main window

This new interface is driving me nuts. I am now wasting
so many keystrokes resetting my display I am seriously considering going back to my previous version.
Every time I open a document it snaps to the window in multipage mode - i wont it to open in single page only mode (no, I hate tabs - it's more trouble than it's worth when you cut and paste a lot). Does anybody know how to make it do this?
PS The same goes for these darn pods - I want them to open up in the same place every time!
Thanks!

Hi Phil and welcome to the FM forums. I feel your pain as the FM9 interface is very different. I upgraded from version 6 and found RJ Jacquez's webinar on the FM9 interface very useful. His blog is also full of useful resources. Check it out. The webinar is also on his blog. Click here.

When I open a separate window and start private browsing my main window closes and I lose all of my app tabs

whenever I open a new window and do private browsing it closes my main window and I loose all of my app tabs. If this is functioning as designed then it is a flaw in the design.

It is designed that way. When you stop private browsing, all of your other tabs will come back.

JS, Open Browser Window

I have rewritten my site in Dreamweaver because I thought
this was a problem with the export from Go Live.
When I tell a link to open in a new browser window it works
but the older window also update to the linked page. This pretty
much defeats the purpose of it opening another browser window.
The link that is the problem is the link to "
http://www.yourmaclifeshow.com"
It's the only one I have put in so far since it doesn't seem to
work properly.

You might also mention the need to apply this behavior to the
<a> tag
surrounding the <img>. It's a common mistake, and it
leads to other
undesirable effects.
