Open different URLs in same window

I'm developing a program that will be run remotely.
Next to each control or indicator, I have a little help button that opens up a URL with some information explaining what the control does or indicator means. The problem is that I don't want each help button to open up in a new window. I'd like to have the help info open in a pop-up window. If the user then clicks on a different help icon, then the info in the pop-up window changes (sort of like Labview Context help) as opposed to having a bunch of windows open.
Is there anyway to control which window the URL opens in?
Brian

this may help, you should look it up and see if it can be a solution.

We use in our KM a Web Dynpro. In the Image Map we want to call this Web Dynpro and open it in the same window. But at the moment we are just able to open the Dynpro in another window.
Is there a possibility to open it in the same window?
Hope that anyone of you, has a solution for our problem.
Many thanks,

Opening .pdfs in the same window/tab.

I look at a lot of .pdfs (Journal Articles) in my browse. Generally, I only download a fraction of the ones I look at. Recently, Firefox has stopped opening .pdfs in the same window/tab. Instead, it prompts me to download every .pdf I want to look at. I then have to save them, open them on my desktop, look at them, and then delete the ones I do not want to keep. Does anyone know how to get Firefox 10.0.2 to start opening .pdfs in the same window/tab again?

If it is disabled on the Plug-ins list (''Add-ons > Plugins''), click "Enable".

Open doc URL: unable to open the report in same window

Hi
I'm trying to open a report using open doc url with "swindow=same" but still it opens in a separate window. This happens only when I use JAVA viewer. it works fine in ActiveX and HTML but I want this in JAVA viewer as i'm including this page in my JAVA application and it should open the report in the same window. I tried using "<a>URL</a>" and also target="_self" by HTML interpretation for that object but still the same problem. I'm unable to open the report in the same window by using JAVA viewer for Crystal Reports in info view. Please help me!!!
Envirorment Details: Crystal Reports 2008 SP3, BOE XI R3 SP3
regards
Raghavendra.G

I have tested that myself and It seems that HTML interpretation does not work with the Java viewer.
I have also tried using a hyperlink containing javascript
eg.
javascript:window.location.href='http://www.sap.com'
but the java viewer seems always to launch a new window before processing the command.
I would recommend to open a case by SAP support ( httP://service.sap.com/support )

First of all how is anyone supposed to help you correct your coding when you have posted any. We can't possibly know what is going on inside the event handler for your button. I suggest that post some of your coding here. In general if you want to open another URL in the same page without using the linkToURL UI element, you should consider the usage of Exit Plugs:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/45/1bc575ba064574e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/45/1bc575ba064574e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm]
Second, please don't ask people to do something "immediately". Everything done in the forum is on a volunteer basis and people help out as fast as possible. Your prompting for immediate action is quite unnecessary and could be considered somewhat rude.

Redirect to new URL in same window?

Hi all - I have a SWF embedded in an HTML file. After the movie has finished playing, I want a new URL to load. I currently have the following code in the final keyframe of my actions layer:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest(http://www.someurl.com));
...which works, but the problem is that it opens up a new window for the new URL instead of redirecting within the same window, which is what I'd prefer. Is there a different command that I can use to force the new link to open in the same window?
I guess I could use a Javascript redirect within the web page's HTML, but it seems safer to me to use Actionscript within the Flash movie. Anyway - thanks much in advance for any help.

It is pretty much the same as what you would do with html...
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.someurl.com"), "_self");

Open link in the same Window

Hello,
i want to open a link from a WDA Action Method, in order to open a bsp applikation. The new page should appear in the same window (no popup, no new window). Here the code which i have at the moment, but the BSP Applikation starts always in a new window. What can i do ?
data:
lt_parameters TYPE TIHTTPNVP,
ls_url               type string,
lo_window_manager type ref to if_wd_window_manager,
lo_api_component      type ref to if_wd_component,
lo_window                type ref to if_wd_window.
CALL METHOD cl_http_ext_webapp=>create_url_for_bsp_application
      EXPORTING
        bsp_application       = 'ZHRMPBA004'
        bsp_start_page       = 'ZHRMPBPTI006.htm'
        bsp_start_parameters = lt_parameters
      IMPORTING
        abs_url              = ls_url.
lo_api_component = wd_comp_controller->wd_get_api( ).
lo_window_manager = lo_api_component->get_window_manager( ).
CALL METHOD lo_window_manager->CREATE_external_WINDOW
          EXPORTING     URL            = ls_url
         RECEIVING     WINDOW         = lo_window.
lo_window->open( ).
thanks for replays

You are calling CREATE_external_WINDOW. That API is designed to open the application in a new window. So that isn't appropriate for what you want. If you want to navigate in place then you should use an Exit Navigation Plug.

How do I make my page links open up within the same window?

I am completely stumped. By default for some reason, every single link I have on all my pages opens up in an external window rather than within the same window. I can't find anywhere to turn this off. I have my hyperlinks open to my other pages not an external page. Please help!

Are these text based hyperlinks that you created? If so then go to the Inspector/Link/Hyperlink pane and make sure the checkbox to Open link in new window is unchecked.

Anyone know how open slideshow in the same window?

Does anyone know how to make the slideshow open in the same window as the as the site instead of a new window? I'm looking for the location and code that would make it happen on a .mac site.

Yes, of course, you can do this! You just have to know the address for the slideshow page directly....
http://web.mac.com/username/iWeb/sitename/photopagename_files/slideshow.html
username = your .Mac username
sitename = your site name
photopagename = whatever you named your photo template page
Example:
http://web.mac.com/jwtseng/iWeb/kate/art_files/slideshow.html
Once you find this URL, then all you have to do to get it to appear as part of your page is to specify an iframe tag with the URL...
<iframe src="http://web.mac.com/jwtseng/iWeb/kate/art_files/slideshow.html" width="980" height="760" scrolling="no" border="0" style="border:none;" frameborder="0"></iframe>
This is the little bit of code that you will need to insert into your iWeb pages in order to make the slideshow appear "inside" a frame on the page. Just change the underlined URL to your own slideshow URL.
To prepare the page in iWeb, you'll need to make a textbox on a page that is 980x760 in dimension (you'll need to adjust the default width of the page). Then type in some placeholder text, like "SLIDESHOWHERE". Publish the page. Then go into your iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/sitename folder and find the pagename.html file. Open it with TextEdit (make sure to tell TextEdit to "ignore rich text format"). Then find the part of the code where your placeholder text is. Replace the placeholder text with the iframes code. Then save your work.
When you check your page in Safari, you should see the slideshow appear inside the page exactly where you positioned the textbox in iWeb.

Open detail report in same window(same frame) in BI Publisher11.1.6.0

Hi
I have created 2 reports
Master Report - Interactive view template
Detail Report - Interactive view template
I have given detail report hyperlink in Master report. when i click on the link, it opens in new tab or window instead of opening in same tab/window.This is happening only in case i have created report in Interactive view.
If i create both the reports in RTF template then it's opening in same window/tab but my requirement is that template should be Interactive template as it's having sorting and filter functionality embedded.
Kindly reply.
Thanks
Nitasha

Open all PDFs in same window option in Acrobat 9?

All my PDFs open in separate windows/acrobat instances. There used to be a feature in option to allow all to open in same window. Cant seem to find it in verison 9.

You're correct. I think that was the switch between SDI (single document interface) and MDI (multiple document interface). In 8.x the ability to switch was there but in 9.0 it appears to have gone the way of the dinosaur. :(
