Opening ASDocs in the browser window

It's a minor annoyance, but I need help changing a user preference setting that I've looked and looked for, but couldn't find the answer. How can I have the FB IDE open ASDocs of Flex4 documentation with the default browser? For instance, when I highlight a word and press shift+F2, most of he time, it opens up in the browser, but sometimes it opens up Flash Builder Help, often when the word doesn't belong in the Flex4 framework. But now, it's only opening up ASDocs in FB Help, and I prefer the browser. I don't think I changed anything, and I would really like to understand the system of ASDocs support. Thank you for any insights.

oops... just realized I should clarify. I mean opening Flex4 LiveDocs in he browser window.

How can I force the browser to prompt user to open or save a pdf document instead of opening it in the browser window?

Change the MIME type for pdf from application/pdf to something else, such as application/octet-stream.
You can change MIME types through the administration server or by editing the mime.types configuration file. The Administrator's Guide at http://docs.iplanet.com has more information.

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, how can I get the browser to open the homepage the next time I start it while the download window is still open?

When I have the downloads window open and I close the browser window, the next time I reopen the browser while the downloads are still going, it returns me to the last page I was on. All previous versions of Firefox would return me to my homepage which I would prefer. Please let me know if this is possible.

When you re-open Firefox and choose Restore Session, by default it picks up your most-recently-open window, and the other windows should then show up in Recently Closed Windows.
The Firefox add-on Session Manager lets you manage how many closed windows and closed tabs are saved, in case it's not enough.

How would I get the Body element background to open at the scale of the browser window

How would I get the Body element background to open at the scale of the browser window? I hear that by using an HTML tag or CSS rule I could scale a background that is placed in the body element without using javascript is this true?

The most reliable solution is to use small image slices or tiles and repeat them down and across the page or container division.
CSS EXAMPLE:
body {
background: url(your_image.jpg) repeat;

Opening new tabs makes the browser window wider

when opening a new tab in safari
it makes the browser window bigger (at the bottom)
but not only at the bottom actually
after a few close-open's it also starts growing at the top
and for me it's unacceptable cause there are folders that i need fulltime access to (at the top)
is there a way (a script) to prevent safari "grow" and make the browser window bigger in a while ?
i don't really know why is it happening because if you press cmd+t it opens a new tab and the browser window kinda slides bigger at the bottom but then if you press cmd+w it does the opposite and the browser window stays the same size after those actions
i can't follow but after some time it starts to be bigger not only at the bottom
it grows til the dock and then starts growing at the top
is there a way to prevent that ?
i mean take opera for example. it always stays the same size and new opened tabs take the "inside space" if you know what i mean. the browser window doesn't get bigger. there is space allocated especially for tabs
i like safari but it is very important for me that it stays the same size all the time
i have all windows and folders situated exactly where i want them and if something moves and covers other items, it gets uncomfortable
thank you

Yes, it sounds like this is the cause.
Some pop-up window code forces the new window to be a certain size. Since it's intended to open in a new window, that normally wouldn't cause problems. But you're forcing the pop-up to open as a new tab in the current window, which causes the current window to be resized to that new page's defined size.

How to open the browser window of the user to the size of the webpage ?

Hello,
My webpages are 1000 x 600 pixels, and I would like the browser window of any user opens in that size for he can see the website as I want to. Is it possible ? I guess it is because the pop-up windows of a "photo page" open to the size of the pictures (when you click on the miniature pictures), so iWeb should have this possibility.
Can you help ?
Thank you very much.

Here are some basic instructions for making html changes after publishing in iWeb:
1. Publish your site via iWeb
2. Find your html files.
Go to iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/Sitename/Pagename.html
(If you publish to a folder, look in the folder you selected or try looking in your Sites folder of your home folder. )
There are two ways to handle accessing your iDisk.
Method 1:
Turn on local copy of your iDisk in System Prefs, with or without automatic syncing.
If you publish your site via iWeb, now the updated pages exist online but the old pages are on your local iDisk. You need to sync (automatically or manually) to get the new pages on your local iDisk (on your computer).
Then you can open the updated files, make your html changes in Text Edit or whatever program, and SYNC AGAIN (automatically or manually) to update the online version of the site to match what you have just changed on your local iDisk
Method 2:
Mount the iDisk when needed via the "Go" menu in Finder. This is the ONLINE VERSION of your iDisk, not a local copy. When you publish your site via iWeb, the changes INSTANTLY appear on the iDisk on your desktop. If you make html edits or other changes, they appear INSTANTLY online.
I recommend Method 2 - much easier!!!
3. Make the html changes.
You can open the html files generated by iWeb in any text or html editor. In TextEdit, to view the code in an HTML file, choose File > Open and select "Ignore rich text commands." Then locate the .html file (as described in step 2) and click Open.
Make your changes (i.e. follow the directions on the link provided by James - it worked for me when I entered that page, so the 2000 suggestion still works!) and don't forget to save your changes (not Save As, just Save)!!!
4. 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! Set up a Find/Replace command in MassReplaceIt and you can do this very quickly. You can save your queries so you can make all of your changes with one click the next time you save.

If you use Lion, go to Applications/ Mission Control and, if you have more Desktops, as attached, it means you have more, and you must select the one you need for a certain app. If default settings has not changed, this is Control with left / right arrow
If in Snow Leopard and earlier, you have these settings in System Preferences only. In Lion, you also have some settings in Sys Prefs.

Whenever I open new tabs Firefox crashes and the browser window closes automatically.what will I do?

I am facing this problem since a month.I never faced this problem before.I always feel good to use Mozilla Firefox as my browser.I used to open multiple tabs in a same browser window.For example- in a tab I logged in to Facebook,at same time I might be downloading songs or something else or open another site in the other tab.It might be 2 or 3 tabs sometimes.But now a days,I am facing the problem whenever I open multiple tabs.Its unusual and so much annoying.The Firefox crashes and the browser window closes showing a messege to send an error report.Please Help me.
N.B. - I am using the Windows service pack 2.
RAM - 2 GB
Hard disk MEmory - 250 GB.

I had this same problem. Seems to be caused by the web developer tool bar FF extension (this started happening after a recent update to that extension). After disabling it, my FF is back to normal :)

I click on a link or start typing text in a box on a webpage, any page, and the browser window either randomly changes size, reduces & goes to the toolbar, or some other strange random thing occurs. Why is this?

Whenever I am using Firefox, when I am on a webpage (any webpage) & I either click on a link in that page, start typing in a box, click on a button, or click on a tab, the browser window either reduces to the toolbar, or just changes size, usually from full-screen to 2/3 of its size. I reinstalled Firefox (downloaded from the web) after wiping my hard drive because I was having so many problems from my browser constantly crashing, to the computer itself crashing often, to the computer running exceptionally slow. At first everything seemed fine. But then after having opened my computer a few times, a few different windows began to freeze, then that stopped, then this thing with the browser started a few times later after opening it. Now it does it every time I open it. Also, whenever I try to click on a button on other windows on my computer, I get the 'warning' sound, nothing happens, then after a couple more tries, the button works. All of this is just weird. I had antivirus protection on my computer, but it apparently did not catch whatever virus infected my computer, or the damage was already done when it did get it. I thought once the hard drive was wiped, that everything would be ok, but then these weird things began to start up, and now I am wondering.... Of course, it could also be something wrong with the browser, too. I've also had some trouble getting my printer to working again, but I've managed to solve that problem.

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

Closing the browser window

I have a page that opens vignettes [videos] built using Captivate in a new window. What I'd like is to close this window once the video has stopped playing i.e. reached the last slide/frame.
I've tried setting properties on the last slide in the project to "Execute Javascript" and using "window.close();" as the code. But this doesn't seem to close the browser window. If I change the JS to something like "alert('Hello');", it works i.e. I do get a JS Alert window at the end of the video.
I am sure this is easy for folks who've been working with Captivate, but I just started using this morning so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Open URL in current browser window

I'm developing an application that works side-by-side with the user's default web browser. The browser communicates with the app through a proxy, and that works great. The issue I'm having is going the other way. So far, I've only been successful opening a new browser window each time. However, it would be much better to be able to open a page in the current window/tab. I mainly want this to work with Firefox (or anything other than IE). Has anyone ever done this, and is this even possible with Java?
Thanks in advance.

Desktop.getDesktop().browse() is what I'm using currently. I don't think you understood my problem. Currently it is opening in a new browser window. In Firefox, it's opening in a new tab, since I have it set to open in a new tab instead of new window. But, what I want it to do is open in the CURRENT tab. In other words, navigate from the current page to a new page, just as if the user had typed in an address into the address bar and pressed enter, or just as if he had clicked a standard link on the webpage.

How to open report in the browser from PL/SQL procedure

Hi,
I need to call the report (with destype = SCREEN) from the PL/SQL procedure and display in the browser.
For Example: when I call P_call_report procedure in my Forms6i button or at sql*plus, the report output PDF/HTML should open in the Browser window.
Iam Using IE, report6i, forms 6i, Oracle 8.1.7, Windows OS
I tried using UTL_HTTP(' ') in a procedure. But when I execute the procedure at sql*plus it says Pl/sql procedure completed successfully message without opening report output in the browser window. If I copy the same url and paste it in the browser, it works.
Please let me know if there is any solution.
thanks alot.

I guess event driven publishing may work. But Iam not sure about the opening of the browser from inside the procedure.

I cannot move, resize, minimize, or close the browser window despite everything inside the window still working.

I don't know what details are needed so I'll just rattle off anything that I can think of.
I am running an Asus laptop with windows 7. I have never had an issue with firefox in the past (beyond the usual freezing and some obvious issues with pop up ads that are par for the course with firefox since adblocker never does what it says.... not really. Lets be honest.) I am using Avast for my virus protection and it is also up to date.
My issue started about an hour ago when firefox stopped responding. The video I had playing kept going but I could not interact with anything. Assuming the program froze for the billionth time that week I rebooted it. This has always solved freezing issues in the past. Now, however, firefox is doing something new.
I can access the menus and almost everything on the window itself except for the minimize/maximize/close buttons, I cannot move the window at all, and I cannot manually resize it. I have also noticed that although videos will play, I can only click on their buttons if there is another smaller window overtop of firefox. The video controls will only appear that way and when I click them firefox naturally comes to the front and the video responds with the button I used but the buttons are gone again and I cannot resume playing without the smaller window back in front to make the buttons show again.
It's as if half of firefox is frozen while the other half is still running somehow.
I have no themes that could be causing this. Literally none. I only use firefox for the things that can no longer be opened in Opera so I have no need for any theme beyond default. The only addons I installed on purpose were adblockers (lord knows why. they don't DO anything.) though several other random things seem to have been installed over time to aid in one thing or another. Various plugins and players and versions of java, that sort of thing. But I have everything (and i mean EVERYTHING) in the addon menu disabled.
I have tried booting it up in safe mode (the program, not windows) and the problem is still there except now it won't show the menu bar at all unless I press the alt key first and even then it wont let me actually click on anything in the menu bar. When I try the whole bar vanishes. I had to close firefox with the task manager.
Rebooting will fix the issue for about 15 seconds before it all comes back.
Any attempts at updating have failed as it says I am already up to date on everything so I don't know what its issue is.
It's not an urgent issue right now as most of what i need to do can be done on the half screen window I am using, but some of my sites have buttons that literally vanish in anything but full screen and I imagine that this will be a much greater annoyance within a few days.

After following all the instructions given, I poked around safe websites as suggested. I am not sure why this step was needed, as websites functioned rather normally before I came here but I did it anyways and found that the websites still work the same as they did. I can still do everything I used to be able to do. I see no change in the function of the websites.
However, I still cannot resize, close, or move the browser window. I don't know if Netflix is a safe site or not (too many conflicting opinions on that one from the masses) so I don't know if the issue with the vanishing buttons is still there, but all the issues I had with the browser window itself is still there.
Even in safe mode the browsers three window control buttons on the top right refuse to let me use them and the window itself will refuse to be moved around.
