Open hyperlinks in same window

Hi everyone,
I've just got a quick question. When converting the
powerpoint to a flash file, does anyone know how to make the
hyperlinks on objects (right click object > action settings >
hyperlink to > URL) open in the same internet browser window
that is currently being used?
Thanks in advanced!

Hi BrendanZ,
In addition, a workaround could be done if you create a
button or link in Flash and use the following ActionScript for the
button to load the hyperlink:
on (release){
getURL("
http://www.adobe.com", "_self");
If you insert the Flash created button in PowerPoint using
the Insert Flash option, the button will now load the Adobe website
inside the same browser window.
However, if the published file is to be played locally, you
would need to read the guidelines and respect the security
restrictions for FlashPlayer 8 if you are using FlashPlayer 8 or 9
on your computer.
You can read more about the security restrictions here:
Security Changes in Flash Player 8
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/fplayer8_security.html
You can also read more about using the getURL method in Flash
from the link below:
getURL
http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/00005202.html
And if you don't have Flash and want to see this in action,
you can get a trial version of flash on the link below:

  • In Firefox 5, New Windows open in the same window even though the options are set to open in a new window.

    I have the options set to open new windows in a new tab. However, they do not.
    For example, as I click on the various options for support on Firefox.com, each opens in the same window. Similarly for Yahoo. If I bring up the news page and click on various links, they all open in the same window. How do you get them to open in new windows?

    Pure speculation, but maybe that Identity Finder program is deleting your browsing history which is how Firefox restores tabs and windows from the previous session. Check with technical support for that program or look at the manual.

  • Open link in same window

    Hi there,
    Does anyone know how to make the URL open in the same window. I am using flash CS3, Is there anyone who can edit the script below to allow this. The instance name is Button6
    var getnextpage5:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.yokubou.co.uk/digitalart.html");
    Button6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,b5Click) ;
    function b5Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
    navigateToURL(getnextpage5);
    Thanks
    JR

    It should open in the same window by default, but if you want to force it, you pass "_self" to the navigateToUrl function:
    var getnextpage5:URLRequest = new URLRequest ("http://www.yokubou.co.uk/digitalart.html");
    Button6.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK,b5Click) ;
    function b5Click(event:MouseEvent):void{
         navigateToURL(getnextpage5,"_self");

    Learn HTML and CSS. Then come back to DreamWeaver.

    Where is your getURL action?
    have you tried _parent or _self as it's target?

  • Open instance in same window

    In 6.0.x. when a instance in the workspace inbox is clicked, it opens in a new window, but in 5.7 it opens on the same page, is there any way to make the inbox instance open in the same window (html page).
    Pardon me, I had put this query in the runtime post, but did not get a reply, hence putting the query in the development thread.

  • The link open in the same window - Label based menu

    Hi All,
    I'm using Xcelsius 2008.  I add a Selector Component "Selector complonenet > Label based menu". I setup 6 Lable and each one link to a URL. When clicking the label on the generated SWF report, the link opened in a new window.
    So i'd like to know if the link can open in the same window (not pop-up a window and open in it)?I tried to setup it in properties, but it seems there is no way to do this.
    Could I get your guide how to do that? Thank you so much.

    Hello
    I would like to know one thing before answring the question how did you link with an url with the label based menu.
    Did you used the opendocument syntax or what did you used.
    Another method is why donf you use the URL button and map according to your requirement. place the url button on the menu item and change the properties to tranperancy to 0%.
    Thanks

  • Adobe Reader 9 IE 7 Opens PDF in same window

    That's basically my problem. When using internet explorer 7, if I try to click on a PDF link the PDF is opened in the same window as the page I am on. I have the website link target set to blank, so I am not sure what the problem is.
    When I click on a PDF link a new window pops open, I click 'Open' on the download prompt box, but then it goes back to the original window and opens on top of the original window.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • How do you get a merged CHM to open in the same window as the master? (RH8)

    We have a problem where everytime you click on a topic from a merged CHM in the master TOC, it opens a new window exlusive to the chm where the topic resides.  We have more than one master chm and this is the only one that does it, it is also the only one that was created from RH8, although the others have been updated with RH8. We've compared the Window and SS Layout properties with a parent chm that doesn't behave this way and haven't been able to find any differences.  Is there something we can do to have all the topics whether merged or from the parent, open in the same window?

    I think somehow the last time I had this problem I stumbled on a solution and wasn't sure what fixed it, but the problem reared its head again, and it was back to the drawing board. Now I think we have a solution, but we don't know for sure what created the problem. Although we're pretty sure the problem has something to do with creating a new window when there is already and existing window.
    What we found. This problem couldn't be fixed in the SSLayout. We found that the Properties | Advanced | Window setting for individual topics in the TOC had been erased. This Window drop-down selection lets you choose a window other than <Default> if more than one window exists. If not changed by the user, it should stay at <Default>, but somehow the setting was blank on several topics, probably due to the creation of a new window, and maybe some other values being changed. This is probably a bug in RH8, but I don't know about other versions.
    How to fix it.
    First you have to isolate which merged .chm file (child) has the problem, I believe I did this by removing one child .chm at a time from the Parent project and then seeing if the parent .chm worked correctly after generation.
    Once you've found the offending .chm (there may be more than one), open the project and the TOC for the .chm that is a problem.
    Go to the TOC pod > Topic Page Properties (right-click on a Topic in the TOC and select Properties) > Advanced > Options panel and ensure that a value exists in the Window: field. If the field is empty, you have a problem.  Click the drop-down and select <Default>, even if your .chm window displays in drop-down.
    I don't believe there's an option to set a window as the default when you create it, so if there's more than one window, who knows what the <Default> option is drawing from, unless <Default> points to the window you have selected in the SSLayout, which I think is the case.
    Find all Topics that have this problem and fix them.  Note: you cannot fix this by going to topic Properties in the Topic List (or from r-click Properties in a topic), you have to do it in the TOC.
    Save all changes, generate the child .chm, and then replace the old child .chm with the new one.
    Open the parent .chm and check to see if all topics open in the parent window. Your Done

  • Firefox v29 opens links in same window

    Since installing version 29, I have found two seemingly related issues:
    1) I find that links open in the same window as the source, instead of a new window.
    For example, I get a notification of a newsletter every day in my Yahoo mail account. Prior to v29, when I clicked on the link in the email message to go to the newsletter, it would open in a NEW window (my preference).
    With version 29, it opens in the SAME window (and replaces the window where I had Yahoo mail open).
    2) Similarly, I do a lot of work where links will be listed in an Excel spreadsheet. Previously, every time I clicked one, it would open a new window. If I clicked on 6, I would have 6 open windows. Now, each link I click REPLACES the last one I opened.
    Both of these issues are highly annoying and slow me down.
    Is there a setting where I can change this behavior?

    I found that after Firefox v29, a LOT of my settings and<BR>
    add-ons were changed / reset. Try this;
    '''''[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode Start Firefox in Safe Mode]'''''
    <BR>While you are in safe mode;<BR>
    '''''Firefox Options > Advanced > General'''''.<BR>
    Look for and turn off '''Use Hardware Acceleration'''.<BR>
    Then check ALL of your settings. Browser and add-ons. Then restart.
