Open new browser window

it also opens in the parent window at the same time. For
instance, I have a home page and when you click on a link I want it
to open up in a new browser window. so i set the behavior to do
this and it works. However, the first window also changes to the
new link so I then have two windows open with the same link I just
clicked on. The main window doesn't stay as the home page. any
suggestions? Thanks.

Also David Powers' Smart Link extension may come in handy:

  • Opening new browser window

    Hi,
    this piece of code use to work for opening a new browser, but now it has problem in opening browser window. There is no exception thrown, can anyone has suggestion whats wrong in this. I am using JRE1.3. I have a feeling that something is conflicting with IE (I tried on 5.0,5.5,6.0)
    thanks
    Syed
    try
    URL url = new URL(urlString);
    applet.getAppletContext().showDocument(url, "_blank");
    } // End of Try
    catch(MalformedURLException e)
    logs("Exception in opening new browser window: " + e);
    } // End of Catch

    Same here.
    Worked fine under IE5.x to IE6, JRE 1.3.x to 1.4. OS used were W2k and WinXP, no prob here.
    Now on some PCs the windows don't pop up anymore. No exception, no indicator of what's going wrong.
    Any hints?

  • Any way to open new browser window without using image maps?

    Is there any way to open new browser window without using image maps? My code works fine in Firefox, but not in IE. There are 2 problems in IE: 1st is that the thumbnail images move up within their own borders & 2nd that when you click on an image it does open up a new browser window, but also redirects to the index page (in this case it's just a placeholder index page - the new one I've called index_new.html for the time being).
    Here is the link:
    http://www.susieharperdesigns.com/gallery_beads.html
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Your missing a value on the HREF.  In your code you have this:
    <area shape="rect" coords="-24,-9,106,144" href=" " onclick="MM_openBrWindow('gallery_bead1.html','','width=255,height=360')" />
    </map></div>
    and it should be this:
    <area shape="rect" coords="-24,-9,106,144" href="javascript:void()" onclick="MM_openBrWindow('gallery_bead1.html','','width=255,height=360')" />
    </map></div>
    If you fix the code on all your beads, it should work.

  • Opening New Browser window for click event on an image

    hi all,
    I want someone to help me out solving the problem of opening
    a new browser window on the mouse click event of an image or a
    button etc.... The new window would contain the datagrid details
    from the main window, but in an expanded form. If at all there is a
    solution, I even want to know whether there is anyway for sizing
    the poped up window,because I dont want the new poped up window to
    cover the entire screen.
    For getting better idea of my problem, the best example I
    could give is the popup window that appears when we click on the
    preview button while posting the message to the forum.
    Someone please do help me out in this regard.
    Thanks,
    amar.

    I'd definitely try to use a Flex popup... but the
    flash.net.navigateToURL method is a simple way to open a popup
    window in a new browser. You can pass any data needed by the new
    page using the URLRequest and/or URLVariables. The URL you navigate
    to could, of course, be another Flex application if necessary. I
    use this only when I need to open a popup window on another site,
    or an HTML formatter report or something similar.
    Concerning yourself with the size of the popup window may be
    a bad design choice also. I, for example, have my browser
    configured to open all popups in a new tab regardless of sizing
    constraints imposed by the designer. If it is absolutely necessary
    for you to have control over the size of your popup window, you
    should follow the advice given by others and use a Flex
    popup.

  • Open New Browser Window Behavior Issue

    I've got a site that has a list of names of deceased people.
    When a viewer clicks on a name I have a new browser window open
    that is a small memorial page specific for that person. This list
    is fairly long so the viewer has to scroll down a ways to get to
    the bottom. If the viewer clicks a name towards the bottom and then
    closes that new browser window they have to scroll all the way back
    down and find where they left off. This of course, is assuming they
    are going in order to view the memorial pages for each person. Is
    there a way to make the "original page (with the list of names)"
    not refresh to the top of the page? I'm using and would like to
    continue using tables and not layers or styles.
    Information can be sent onto [email protected]
    Any help would be much appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Cody

    Cody,
    It sounds like you are using <a href="#"
    Try using <a href="javascript:;"

    Hi,
    I have to load an applet viewer in the new browser window. I have URL to the PDF.
    I ma able to load the applet viewer in new browser window using javascript. But I have to load the new PDF if the same window in already opened.
    The issue here is , i am loosing the window handle if the parent page is refreshed. I want to store the window handle in session scope variable and use the same.
    How do i update the session scope variable using javascript?
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Cache problem for servlet opening new browser window

    Requirement:
    I have JSP page say summary.jsp with link "print account summary"
    When user clicks on this link, new browser open with PDF document of summary.jsp
    This new browser window should not have address bar and toolbar.
    Solution:
    Servlet called PrintSummary which sets contenttype=application/pdf and sends the data to outputstream.
    href of link is
    Java script function is:
    function openWindow(url){
    window.open(url,'blank','toolbar=no')
    Problem:
    Since the URL of this new window is
    http:// host:portnumber/PrintSummary
    Even if I click the "Print summary" link for account2,
    being the same URL (http:// host:portnumber/PrintSummary) it accesses the existing page in the cache which is created for account 1.
    In href if I just use servlet url as
    I get the expected behaviour but then I don't have control on browser appearance and browser window will be with address bar and toolbar.
    The only option I could think of was changing URL as follows:
    <% String url ="javascript:openWindow('PrintSummary? var1="+ Math.random()+"')";
    So that URL is different all the time
    Is there any way to solve this problem?
    Thanks in advance

  • Opening new browser window from View Library links

    On some of the documentation pages, e.g. http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/ias.html , a new browser window is opened using target=new_win in the HTML code. This window will be re-used if the user goes back and clicks on another, similar link. It's better to use target=_blank for this purpose, because that would ensure that a new browser window is opened every time.

    You would have to a) swap the image, and b) expose a
    previously hidden layer
    that superimposes the image with a transparent GIF on which
    the onClick
    behavior has been applied.

  • Open New Browser Window in CS4 opens behind existing window - HELP!

    I am creating a website in CS4, and everything works fine EXCEPT ona few pages, for every link I have set up to open in a new browser window, the new window opens BEHIND the existing window, so that you cannot see it. I tried one solution that said to type "javascript:;" in the href (link) box, but that did not correct the problem. Any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Sounds like you have Tabbed browsing enabled.

  • Open new browser window from a JApplet

    Hi,
    I want to open a new browser window from a JApplet.My first thought was to use the Live Connect technology but it worked only with simple applets not with JApplets.Then i tried it by getting the Applet context (getAppletContext() method) but it still didn't work with JApplet...(it worked with Applet).I believe it has something to do with the applet security but i haven't yet figured it out.
    For example when i call the getAppletContext() method from a JApplet i get an java.security.AccessControlException ... .Thanks

    I must correct myself now :).
    The getAppletContext() method does work with JApplets too.Still , i have problems with the Live connection alternative.It seems that it by importing the netscape.javascript package i get the security eror that i mention above...

  • Open new browser window after insert

    I am having a problem with form data being errased when users
    go back to a form after after the insert command. I have been
    trying to get the insertGoTo page to be opened in a new browser
    window. The tail end of the insert command code looks as follows.
    $Result1 = mysql_query($insertSQL, $squirrelcart) or
    die(mysql_error());
    $insertGoTo = "new_page.php";
    if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
    header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
    I have tried modifying the page name to:
    $insertGoTo ="MM_openBrWindow('new_page.php','page_name','
    This didn't work. Any suggestions on how to put the new_page
    in its own window, or is there a way to suppress the form page

  • Open New Browser window with "Server Behavior"

    I know how to open a link in a new browser window by going to
    the Behaviors panel. The site I'm working on is using PHP, so
    instead of a Behaviors panel all it shows is a "Server Behaviors"
    panel. Under the "Server Behaviors" there is't an option to open a
    link in a new browser window. Should I be looking someplace
    different or is there another way to add this function to a link?
    Thanks in advance for any help!
