Open link in system browser

Hey,
When a user clicks a standard link in my HTML Air app I'd
like it to open in their browser (Firefox/ Internet Explorer /
whatever)
Currently it's opening a new window of my Air Application,
which isn't fun at all.
I'm sure this is an easy fix, but I've checked the docs and I
cant' find it. Anyone know what's going wrong?

window.htmlLoader.navigateInSystemBrowser = true;

Can not open links while in browser?

So, I can't click on links with the cursor while I am in browser, if it highlights the link I can right click and hit open link, but can not just click with the trackball, does anyone know how to fix this?

I asked your device operating system release?
lol, no, not a virus.
The most recent OS release you're likely running contains a bug. Just hover over the link and press Menu > Get Link.
it's be fixed in a later release.

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
the downloading by pressing the stop button on theweb
browser?Short answere: You dont.It doesn't terminate the socket? How/when does the socket get closed on the client side then?

[SOLVED] Xfce terminal open links with wrong browser.

After installing Opera as second browser, xfce terminal began to open links with it, instead of my default browser - Firefox.
I right click on an URL, choose 'Open Link' and it opens in Opera.
Firefox is set as default browser in Settings -> Preferred Applications -> Web Browser
xdg-open http://archlinux.org
- opens Firefox
exo-open http://archlinux.org
- opens Firefox
After quick search through xfce terminal sources i found it uses some function - gtk_show_uri.
I googled it, found that topic: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=140028 and tried the solution:
cat ~/.local/share/applications/mimeapps.list
[Added Associations]
x-scheme-handler/mailto=exo-mail-reader.desktop
x-scheme-handler/http=firefox-browser.desktop
strangely it doesn't help.
After all righ click url in terminal and 'Open Link' still uses Opera.
Any ideas? What else can i do to find out a reason?

Tried BROWSER envar - doesnt help, and as i understand it must work only for cli apps.
Editing of ~/.config/mimeapps.list doesnt help eather:
cat ~/.config/mimeapps.list
[Default Applications]
text/vcard=firefox.desktop
text/html=firefox.desktop
[Added Associations]
text/vcard=firefox.desktop;
text/html=firefox.desktop
but maybe it's not correct.
After that i tried to strace xfce4-terminal:

and it's strange but as i can understand it uses some mime cache file located at /usr/local/share/mime/mime.cache
and before that some other non existing files, but i dont see there any familiar config files.

Want to open link in new browser

F1 > Open Browser Window behavior
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.

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.

This article by Ted Padova will give you the JavaScript code that will accomplish this: http://acrobatusers.com/blogs/tedpadova/opening-pdfs-new-browser-windows

Open link in a browser from jTexPane hyperlink

Hi,
I create a hyperlink in a jTextPane, and it's like this:
jTextPane1.setContentType("text/html");
jTextPane1.setText("<a href=http://www.yahoo.com>Yahoo!</a>");
It's working, but then the yahoo page is displayed in that jTextPane1..How do I change it so that the page is opened in a default browser?
Thanks for your time.

Heres a little snippet that might do what you are after ... NB: this runs an linux box that has the application firefox in its path, thus able to run ... you might need to use the full path of iexplorer eg c:/windows/program ...etc
hope this helps
public class run
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception
       String url = "http://slashdot.org";
       Process p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec("firefox " + url);
       p.waitFor();
       System.out.println("Done.");

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.

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

Opening Link in fullscreen browser window

I have this action on a button and want it to open the link
in a fullscreen browser window. What did I screw up?
on (release) {
getURL("javascript:ContactObj=window.open('
http://www.villagegreenstudios.com/view2/BTAdemos.html','btawdemoswin','scrollbars=Yes,sta tus=No,resizable=Yes,fullscreen=Yes');
ContactObj.focus(); void(0);");
}

Looks pretty good to me. Sometimes if I'm having trouble with
doing things this way, I whip up a quick function in javascript on
the html page that does the same thing and just call that function
with getURL or externalinterface. Saves me from having to debug
quotation mark issues.

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.

NavigationTarget not opening link in same browser

Hi All,
I created LinkToURL element and using NavigationTarget to portal page and Target Property is set to _SELF, but still its opening in new browser, i want to open in same browser.
I tried      WDPortalNavigation.navigateAbsolute(
     "ROLES://portal_content/...",
     WDPortalNavigationMode.SHOW_INPLACE,
     (String) null,
     (String) null,
     WDPortalNavigationHistoryMode.NO_DUPLICATIONS,
     (String) null,
     (String) null,
     "Name=" + wdContext.currentContextElement().getName());
on button action , This is doing nothing.Please give your suggestions.
Thanks,
pkv

Hi PKV,
Go to LInktoURL UI properties and set the target -
> _MAIN instead of _BLANK
                  That's it

Everytime I open a new window to browse, in this new window I would right click to open link in new tab but the new tab always shows up in the other window.

I would click a link which opens a new window. Then in this new window, I would right click to open link in new tab. The new tab does not show up in this new window. It instead shows up in the original browser window. How can I make the new tab show up in the same window?

Firefox did have a behavior where some new windows -- those considered to be dialogs -- could not have new tabs, so new tabs were diverted to the window from which the dialog was opened.
According to the bug tracking system, a fix is in the works:
[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644729 644729 – Popup window with all toolbars visible causes new tabs to open in another browser window] referencing [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485237 485237 – Need to treat popups consistently].
That second ones says Target Milestone: Firefox 12, so the fix probably didn't make it into Firefox 11.
WORKAROUNDS
That first bug says there is an add-on to work around this -- it enables the middle mouse button to open links in a dialog window: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug-586234-unfixer/ Bug 586234 Unfixer :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.

Links in e-mails from Mac Mail Application won't open in a web browser

I use my Mac Mail application for all my e-mail accounts. I switched from Safari to Mozilla Firefox and now links I try to click on in my e-mails do not open in a mozilla browser as I they did when I had Safari as my main browser. I've tested Chrome and Safari and the links open when clicked using both of those browsers. However, I prefer Mozilla to both of those and would like to get this working as it is a convenience to have to copy and paste links every time.

Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, proceed as follows:
1. Open /Applications/Utilities/Console.
2. From the File menu, choose either Open Console Log, or Open System Log, or both, so that Console displays the contents of both system.log and console.log.
3. In the Finder, go to /Applications/ and try to open Mail by double-clicking on it. Look at the bottom of the Console windows for messages that might be written there as a result. They may provide some clues.
In the meanwhile, try reinstalling the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using:
About the Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update
Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update for PowerPC
Mac OS X 10.4.9 Combo Update for Intel
After installing the Combo Update, the computer may restart twice and the first restart may take several minutes. This is normal.
Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
Troubleshooting installation and software updates
Installing software updates
Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.
