Open link in new browser window

I know how to enter the links in the assets page so when I
export to dreamweaver the links already in the html. Is it possible
to enter a link URL and have it open in a new window? I know that
you can use the popup feature but is there any other way?
Thanks

I used the Behaviors tab to do this (see:  www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/interactivity/behavior/behavior04.html). 
The page I was starting from is http://www.wqma.com/schedule.html.  I wanted to click on a link and have it open a new window with a .pdf of our schedule.
When I strictly followed the instructions in the above Adobe link, I ended up having a new window open with the link I wanted.  In addition, however, the old window *also* opened to the new page.  Then I tried deleting the address within the '<a href=...>' parentheses.  (I assumed that's what Linda meant by leaving it blank.)  But when I did this, the initial page jumped back to my home page.  So instead, within the '<a href=...>' parentheses, I entered the address for the page I was starting from (<a href="http://www.wqma.com/schedule.html">).  This made the first window "stay" on the page I was starting from, and also opened another window with the page I wanted.

  • Open links in new browser window

    We are using Oracle WCI 10.3/Collaboration 10.3 and have a Community Links Portlet (collab portlet) setup. The links open up in the same browser window and to get back to the portal, the user has to hit the back button on the browser. So,
    1) Is there a portal/collaboration configuration that enables links to open up in a new browser window?
    2) Is there a way to hide the address bar when the link opens up in a new window? (the reason for this question is, we may have a link to some applications where we don't want the user going in directly. So, by hiding the address bar, they can't copy the URL and access directly without going in through the portal).
    If there is any better way to do question 2 above, would appreciate the feedback.
    Thanks.

    I was able to figure this out:
    1) In the My Account section, under display preferences, there is an option to "open documents in same window" or "new window". By changing this, links in the Community Links portlet open up in a new browser window.
    2) With a simple javascript example that I found on the internet, I was able to customize the popup browser window with no address bar or menu buttons.

  • Discoverer Viewer Open Link in New Browser Window

    We have created cubes with links to details (using Manage Links).
    When selecting the link from Discoverer Plus OLAP, a new browser window opens.
    When selecting the link from Discoverer Viewer, it opens within the same browser window.
    How can we force Discoverer Viewer to open a link in a new browser window?
    We tried adding the TARGET="_blank" to the link but that only gets added to the last parameter (or passed as a parameter).
    Unlike Discoverer Plus parameter, there is no _popup option.

  • Can I have links open in a new browser window?

    Is it possible to have links to pages outside of my website to open in a new browser window?
    I've created a podcast for my students to listen to.
    I've also created a kind of fill-in-the-blank activity to go along with that podcast, but that activity requires a different window.
    I want my students to listen to the podcast and do the fill-in at the same time.
    So, I'd like for the students to open the link to the fill-in and then click on the podcast on the original page.
    Advice?

    changing podcast links is a bit difficult - but here is a general link of how to open windows in a new window:

  • ADF RichTextEditor opening links in new browser - how to do it?

    Hi, If I add a link in ADF RichTextEditor, how do I make it open in a new browser window when clicked on it? Essentially, I want RichTextEditor to insert "target=_blank" attribute in the achor element rendered.
    Of course, I can ask the user to go to source mode and do it themselves, however, I was hoping that in the WYSIWYG mode, RichTextEditor would give me the options for specifying the target.
    Is this possible?
    BTW, I dont want to process the value of the RichTextEditor at the backend and insert the target programmatically.
    Thanks.

    The question is: how do I detect if the clientaborts

  • Open PDF link in new browser window?

    I'm viewing a newly created PDF in a browser.
    When clicking an internal link, the linked PDF loads into the same window
    I need it to launch in a new browser window.
    I have set the link to "launch new window" in Word where this file originated.
    I have also opened and resaved it in Acrobat 10 with preference "Open cross-document links in same window" deselected.
    Neither of these setting have change the behavior though all documentation I read seems to suggest they should.
    What am I missing here??
    -Blake

    That preference setting does not apply to web links and do not refer to a browser window, but an Acrobat window.
    There is a JavaScript method that might work. Try setting the link action to something like the following script:
    app.launchURL("http://www.example.com/", true);
    This was taken from the example here: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.150.html
    The problem is if a user has Reader 10 and protected mode is enabled (as it is by default), it doesn't work and opens the link in the same browser window.

  • Link to open up in new browser window

    Hi everyone,
    I need a link to open up in a new browser window but don't want to use the target attribute as it's deprecated. Can someone tell me if Dreamweaver has any built-in javascript behaviours that will do this for me?
    Appreciate any help.

    Yes, it's called Open Browser Window: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7b0 7a.html.
    A more sophisticated version is my SmartLink extension, which is available free from http://foundationphp.com/tools/.

  • Open URL Link in new browser window

    Can someone please help me? I've tried to use code as if I were using Dreamweaver without any luck(i.e. blank target).
    Is there a way to make the url in the PDF open a new browser windows once clicked? Hopefully this is an easy fix! Thanks in advance!

    Jono, if you are still out there.  I am also having trouble with this function.  The button works just fine, but it does not open another browser window.  I am trying to keep my pdf open, and send them to a url.  That way they can come back to the form. Like you would with the target="_blank" function in javascript.
    What am i doing wrong?  I have tried opening the script editor, but I am not sure what to do there. So I put the same as you did on your form, no effect.  I put target="_blank" and set it to javascript on just about every option.  I have tried to go into the code on the xml source tab, no luck anywhere.  I have tried to just use a text field, no luck.
    Seems like everything I have tried has no effect.
    Hopefully you can tell me it is something simple...
    Thanks in advance.

  • Open QT In New Browser Window - Followup Q For Quicktime Kirk

    Quicktime Kirk:
    I found a thread a few months ago (now archived) where you explained how to open a QT movie in a new browser window at specified dimensions. The example you gave was your page:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/bushbashquiz/
    So I've got it all working and it looks great in Safari and Fireworks (thanks very much!), BUT unfortunately it does not work in Explorer. What happens in Explorer is that the window basically targets "_.self" (i.e. the parent window goes away), and when you click the "Close Window" button it closes the window and you're left with nothing.
    I know that Explorer has all kinds of bugs, but unfortunately it's popular -- esp. with the PC crowd whom I need to allow for. Do you or anyone know how to get this functionality working in Explorer???
    Thanks again.

    Yep. I just checked the link using IE for Mac. The "pop-up" window replaces the source window (not supposed to do that). Another reason to no longer use IE on a Mac.
    The javascript is valid in every other Mac browser. Just not IE, it seems.
    My PC is down (I think it really died this time) so I can't test its implementation of javascripts on a PC platform.
    And, you're correct. It doesn't work as it should when opened using IE on a Mac.
    I "borrowed" the javascript and it must contain errors that are not so obvious on the Mac OS.
    I'll look for the cause but can't promise a solution. Thank you for pointing this out. I try very hard to accommodate all browsers and OS's. This one skipped by me (no IE use in years on my Mac).
    Maybe a javascript guru can "fix" my (or IE's) sloppy page code.

    Hi,
    I hope I understood your question correctly, if so my suggestion may be helpful. Otherwise I think it's nearly the same what paul writes, I only made clear my proposal in a website for you, first a photo:
    and here is the link: http://www.goldschmiede-blumberg.de/pdf/adob_pdf.php.
    Note 1: "Ausgabe 9" und "ein Mausklick hier genügt" are links!!
    Note 2: " Um pdf-Dateien ...." Means: To read pdf files, you need the free Adobe Reader. The current version you can download from the Adobe website.

  • "Go to URL" not opening in a new browser window

    We are using FrameMaker 10 and RoboHelp 9 in a Windows 7 environment.
    When we create hypertext links, we use the "Go to URL" command.  According to the FrameMaker 10 online help, this is what the command is supposed to do: "Launches browser and displays the specified Web page."
    Then we publish the content to RoboHelp's WebHelp.
    When we see the hypertext link in the WebHelp/HTML output, it looks like this: http://www.adobe.com
    When we click it, the Web page appears inside the content frame of the WebHelp.  It does not open a new browser window.
    We can manually go into the html file and look at the hypertext link.  It looks like this in the WebHelp output:
    <span class="FM_Link"><a href="http://www.adobe.com">www.adobe.com</span>
    In order to manually change the link so that it opens the Web page in a new browser window, we can edit the link as follows:
    <span class="FM_Link"><a href="http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank">www.adobe.com</span>
    After we manually edit the HTML file, save it, launch the WebHelp, and click the hypertext link...it now opens the Web page in a new browser window.
    Is there a way to create the hypertext link in FrameMaker so that the WebHelp output will open the Web page in a new browser window?
    Thank you in advance!
    Tim

    Please see the previous posts in this thread to review how you create hyperlinks in FrameMaker that open the Web page in a new browser window.
    The problem is this: If you publish the exact same file to PDF, the hyperlinks will not work.
    The properties (syntax) of the hyperlinks in PDF output need to look like this: http://www.adobe.com
    The hyperlink syntax in WebHelp (in FrameMaker) needs to look like this: http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank
    (...so when they are published to Webhelp, they look like this: "http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank")
    Other than going into either the HTML or the PDF output and manually changing each hyperlink URL syntax for the specific output, is there a syntax that opens a new browser window in both PDF and HTML with one single "Go to URL" command?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Open portlet in new browser window

    Anyone know of a way to open a portlet, or a page containing a portlet, from a link into a new browser window? This is different than showDetailsPage, which opens in the same browser window.
    Thanks.

    I tried to do this through Item Attributes for the portlet (clicking the little pencil), where there is a radio button for "Display Options."
    One choice is: "Link That Displays Item in New Browser Window."
    (I do have something in for the "Display Name" which seems to be required to get a link.)
    However, this doesn't seem to work. No link shows.

    I have tested this with a Discoverer portlet, and also with a more generic portlet (the "Developer News" portlet in the 9iAS Community portlet provider).

    The other alternative is to add a target="_blank" attribute
    to the link
    tag, but that's deprecated. It should also be noted that many
    modern
    browsers open new windows in new tabs, not new windows, and
    you have no
    control over that.

  • Opening link in separate browser window

    Is there a way to make a NEW browser window open when creating a hyperlink to a page outside (external) of my website? My external links always open in the same window as my website resulting in the viewer being taken off my site.

    Check out this link:
    http://web.mac.com/varkgirl/iWeb/Aardvarkland/Open%20links%20in%20new%20window.h tml
    Basic summary of what the link says:
    1. Publish your page. Changes will be made in the published files.
    2. Get MassReplaceIt
    http://www.hexmonkeysoftware.com
    http://web.mac.com/will.englefield/iWeb/WillG4PB/MRI.html
    3. Set up MassReplaceIt
    Find
    href="http
    replace with
    target="_blank" href="http
    This will change all of your external links to open in a new window and leave your internal links as is.
    Remember, if you make a change to a page like this post-publishing, and later re-publish, you have to make the html changes again! Save your query in MRI for next time
