Open Browser with No Address Bar from Java

How to open a IE Browser from Java with no address bar, tool bar etc ?
I am able to open browser like the listed code, but the requirement for me is it has to open with no "Address Bar", buttons.
I know we can do that in "Javascript" but how to or is there a way to do that in java/swing.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
String WIN_FLAG = "url.dll,FileProtocolHandler";
String WIN_PATH = "rundll32";
String url = "www.google.com"
String cmd = WIN_PATH + " " + WIN_FLAG + " " + url;
Runtime.getRuntime().exec( cmd );

Use javascript for this. I would do it this way....
You can decide with JS if you want tot hide so elements from your browser. Should not be very difficult to implement

Firefox opens up with no address bar,bookmarks,etc. It also starts up as a white screen slowly turning black.

As my title suggests every time I open up my firefox the address bar and all doesn't appear on the top along with it starts off white followed by a small black square until the entire area of the browser is blackened.
Any help would be appreciated!

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: Command+Shift+F).
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-to-use-full-screen
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top of the screen to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br>Click the Maximize button (top right corner of the Navigation Toolbar) to leave full screen mode or right-click empty space on a toolbar and choose "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press the F11 key.
You can use one of these to set which toolbars to show.
*Firefox menu button > Customize > Show/Hide Toolbars
*View > Toolbars (press F10 to show the Menu bar)
*Right-click empty toolbar area

Opening a Browser Window with no Address Bar

Hello All,
I am working on an application which needs to open a new browser window. I need to hide the URL from the user.
Right now, I can open the window with no toolbar or address bar with the following command:
String cmd = "cmd.exe /c start javascript:window.open('http://www.google.ca','main','menubar=0,location=0,toolbar=0,personalbar=0,status=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=yes')";
However, this first opens up a blank window and then the window with no address bar. If I make the command:
String cmd = "cmd.exe /c start javascript:window.open('http://www.google.ca','main','menubar=0,location=0,toolbar=0,personalbar=0,status=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=yes';window.close();)";
then the user is asked if they wish to close the first blank window.
Does anyone know how to open a new browser window via the command line without the annoying extra window?

It works with the following command but the new browser window isn't in "focus".
cmd.exe /c start javascript:window.open('http://www.google.ca','main','menubar=0,location=0,toolbar=0,personalbar=0,status=0,scrollbars=1,resizable=yes');window.opener=top;window.close();

I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts - what do i do next

I can no longer open numbers and am therefore barred from access to important accounts.What do I do next?

Hi mp,
If you updated to OS X Mavericks, there may have been an automatic update to Numbers 3. Numbers 3 will be in your Applications folder. Numbers '09 has not been replaced. Look for Numbers '09 (Numbers 2.3) in a folder called iWork '09 inside your Applications folder. You can run both versions of Numbers at the same time.
I have icons for both versions on my Dock. Drag each to the Dock from Applications folder and Applications > iWork '09 folder. Right click on each and Options > Keep in Dock. Now you have the choice of which to use.
Numbers 2 (3 column chart) on the left. Numbers 3 (4 column chart) on the right.
If a document won't open, try opening from within each version. Or right click on the document and Open With...
You can Export a Numbers 3 document back to Numbers '09 with Menu > Export > Numbers '09...
Post back if you have problems.
Regards,
Ian.

Browser has no address bar

I just got my Sony tablet a few days ago.
Initially, the browser worked fine. Now I just see the body of the browser--not the address bar.
Is there a way to restore this--or do I do a reset?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

If you are using the browser which came with the tablet, you probably turned on "Quick controls" under "Labs" in the browser settings.
Solution:
1. Try to tap and hold anywhere on the edge of the screen.
2.A "Blue disc" with buttons should appear w/ fwd & back buttons etc
3. The globe icon will bring up the address bar
Note: to turn off this option and go back to a plain browser look. press the icon with the 3 dashes and click on settings>Labs and uncheck "Quick Controls"
I hope this fixes your problem, if not I would suggest a soft reset, or email Sony directly.

Remove address bar from file explorer (using regsitry)

This used to be possible in 2008, but I haven't been able to figure out how it's done in 2012 R2. The old method was to add a key under IE, and it would also remove the address bar from windows explorer - but this method
no longer works. So is anybody aware of what key needs to be changed or modified in order to make this happen. Further, ideally this change would happen in HKCU.
Thanks

Hi,
>>That would seem to remove run from start menu, not the address bar from file explorer.
Yes, this setting will disable Run.exe. However, this setting will also prevent users from accessing local or network resources by typing the accessing paths in the address bar of File Explorer.
I am not completely sure why you want to remove the address bar in File Explorer. However, if our target is to restrict users from accessing network resources by UNC path, in my opinion, enabling this setting a better way to go.
In addition, regarding this topic, the following thread can also be referred to for more information.

When changing "browser.newtab.url" is there any way to prevent the address bar from getting focus?

When I change "browser.newtab.url" to about:home and open a new tab, focus is set to the address bar not the search box on the firefox home page. The same thing happens if i change the url to google.com or another search engine. Is there any way to prevent this from happening.

Custom new Tab has a small bug if the start page is exactly the same as the new tab page. Then the focus of the start page is on the address bar. Just leave the "www." out in the startpage and use "www." in the new tab page then it works perfectly. e.g.
Startpage: google.com
new Tab page : www.google.com
Now the focus of the start page is on the search box.

Closing the browser with a single click from form

Hi All,
Will u please help me anyone how to close the browser with a single click pressing exit button or closing the cross buton.
Arif

Always start with a search on this forum
Solution
Instructions:
1. Using an html or text editor, create an html file with the following code:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Create a ref to the original method
var windowClose = window.close;
// Re-implement window.open
window.close = function ()
window.open("","_self");
windowClose();
</script>
</head>
<body onload="window.close()">


Your browser or system settings have prevented this window from closing.
In order to ensure the highest level of security,
please close/exit this browser session immediately.
</body>
</html> 2. Save the html file with the following name: close.htm
3. Store this file on the middle tier, in a directory which has an associated virtual path configured in the HTTP Server. You can use a pre-existing path or create a new one. For example, in version 10.1.2 you could copy the html file to this directory:
ORACLE_HOME\tools\web\html
The above virtually maps to the following by default:
/forms/html/
For information on creating a virtual path for the HTTP Server, please refer to the HTTP Server Administrator's Guide.
4. In the Forms application, choose the desired trigger where you would like to execute the closing of the browser. Remember that by executing this code, the application will be ungracefully terminated, therefore it is recommended that the following code only be entered in the Forms POST-FORM trigger.
web.show_document ('/forms/html/close.htm','_self');
5. Compile and run the form.
Upon exiting the form, the web browser will call close.htm resulting in the browser closing.
This has been successfully tested using IE7 on XP-SP3. Although this code will work with other browsers, for example FireFox 3, a configuration change in FF must be made in order for it to work correctly.
Manual Steps Required for FireFox:
1. Open one instance of the FireFox browser.
2. In the address bar, enter the following and press Enter on the keyboard:
about:config
3. In the list presented, locate the following parameter:
dom.allow_scripts_to_close_windows
4. Double-click on this parameter to set its value to TRUE
5. Exit the browser

Help with restoring Address Book from Time Machine

Problem: I really, really need to retrieve someone's number. I know it'll be in an old version of my Address Book. I can see when I open time Machine that my address book is backed up, but no matter the date I go to, it says the Address Book was last modified in 2012! I know for a fact I've updated (and backed up) the Address Book many times since then.
Whenever I try to restore the Address Book, I do Time Machine > Applications > Address Book > 'restore'. But whenever I do this, the mac refuses to open the restored Address Book because it's 'required by mac OS X'.
I don't understand.
Please, how on earth do I dredge my Address Book from the depths of Time Machine?
Please help!
M

Hello mb9236,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with restoring a contact from Time Machine.
It sounds like you are trying to restore the Address Book application. The Address Book application is just the application and does not include the content in Address Book.
Instead, you will want to open Address Book and then launch Time Machine and restore your contacts from there. Use the steps below to restore your contacts form a previous date (in step one instead of opening Mail or Finder, be sure you have Address Book open and in focus):
If you use Time Machine to back up your computer, you can easily bring back one or more items you’ve lost, or recover older versions of files you’ve changed.
Open a window for the item you want to restore. For example, if you accidentally deleted a file from your Documents folder, open the Documents folder. If you want to recover an email message, open your inbox in Mail.
If you’re missing an item from the desktop, you don’t need to open a window.
Click the Time Machine icon in the Dock, or open the Time Machine menu in the menu bar and choose Enter Time Machine. If you back up to a Time Capsule or other network disk, a message briefly appears while Time Machine connects your computer to the backup disk.
Use the arrows or the timeline along the right side of your screen to browse through all the snapshots and backups Time Machine created. Gray tick marks on the timeline represent snapshots stored on your internal drive (portable computers only). Pink tick marks represent backups stored on your backup disk.
If you need more information about an item, double-click to preview it. The windows in Time Machine behave just like Finder windows, so you can open folders, click items in the sidebar, and use the search field in the upper-right corner of the window.
When you find the item you want to restore, select it, and then click Restore. You can restore individual items, multiple items, folders, or your entire hard disk. The restored item is returned to its original location. For example, if the item was found in the Documents folder, it is returned to the Documents folder. Time Machine may ask if you want to re-create one or more folders in order to return a restored item to its original location.
If an item you restore has the same name as another item on your computer, you’re asked if you want to keep the current item, the restored item, or both.
You can use Time Machine from within many applications. For example, you can open Address Book and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to recover contacts you may have accidentally deleted, or open iPhoto and then click the Time Machine icon in the Dock to view past versions of your iPhoto albums.

Removing Address Bar from external window popup

Hi
I have a modal popup which opens up another popup as an external window. Now this child popup window is consistent with the original browser window and shows toolbar and address bar.Is there an attribute of commandButton in ADF which can help me remove the address bar in the child popup ?
I have removed the toolbar by setting windowEmbedStyle="window" in the commandbutton that launches the external window popup.
PS - Both the parent and child popup dialogs have been implemented as taskflows.The parent popup is a modal dialog and not a browser window.
Thanks

from the parent popup.. open the child popup using javascript. .add a c
<af:commandButton text="Click Me">
<af:clientListener type="action" method="popUp"/>
</af:commandButton>
function popUp(e) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=1,width=600,height=600');");
}

Safari not opening Properly and no address bar

I recently updated software on my mac and since, I am having Safari issues.
When I click on the Safari link in the dock, nothing happens except the menu bar opens full screen with my desktop still on the screen.
If I go to the search bar on the desktop and search for a website, Safari actually does open with a web page, without the address bar.
I go to customize toolbar and try dragging default settings, but it does not work most times, the address bar is missing. When I get it to work, it does not come back after closing the window.
I have tried resetting Safari, but no change. I am using Apple for a short time, and have no idea what to do next.With the PC, I would re-install to try and fix issue.

Delete the shortcut on the Desktop.
Then go to Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data.
Now empty the Safari cache.
Safari > Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
Select: Show Develop menu in menu bar
Now click Develop from the menu bar. From the drop down menu click Empty Caches.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

Removing Address Bar from target="_blank"

From what I understand this is not possible to remove the
address bar via
Javascript when opening a new window simply using
target="_blank" - correct?
This was posed to me as a question from a fellow at work.
