PCUI - open New Window via Button (to call custom URL / HTML viewer)

Hello group,
I have followed the "Use CRM PCUI HTML viewer to call a custom URL" in order to create a custom URL to BW web template.
However, instead of displaying the URL in a tab (this works fine), I want a Button in the Accounts view to open up a New Window displaying the URL there.
Here is what I have done:
Create Field Group & Structure
Create Event
- Usage: Layout-Relevant
- Text: Web template call
Added Event to Toolbar Group ACC_OIC
Define Application Layout (CRMM_ACCOUNT) for Event
- Position: New Window
- Screen Element Type: HTML
- my field group
- my structure
Define Application Set (COMM_BUPA)
- my structure
- my access class
The button is there, when clicked the read-method of my access class is executed, but no New Window is opened with the URL displayed.
Is there something I am missing? Can the HTML viewer not called in a new window?!
I appreciate any input you can provide me.
Thanks and regards,
Erik

Opening new window on button click from pdf without loosing session

Hi,
In my Java web applicaion on click of a link, we are opening a new window in which we are displaying a pdf. There are 5 buttons on this pdf.
On clicking of this button again we are opening a application link in new window. But in this window we are not gettting our session, which is there in first two window.
For opening new window from pdf button click we are using
var dynamicUrl3 = myappurl;
app.launchURL(dynamicUrl, true);
How can i open new window with the same sesion from the pdf button.
Please help for the same.
Thanks,
Abhijit Mohite.

Yes, with target="_blank" in a link or a form.Thanks for ur valuable suggestion. I changed the button to link.
Its working fine now without JavaScript.
Now i got another requirement. When user select some items and press a button in the new popup window, the window must close on button click and the parent window must refresh. This must also be done without using JavaScript.
Is this possible? Please give me an idea to do this.
Thanks.

Opening new window or tab to the same site being viewed on another tab/wind

I am a new MacBook user. In my past experience with Internet Explorer, I would often open a new window to the same site that I was already viewing through File>Open New Window. This method was often preferable to opening a new window through the IE icon and loading to the homepage. I have gotten quite used to this pattern and am trying to figure out if there is a way to open a new tab or window to the same page that I am already viewing. I know how to open a new tab or window, but rather than going to the same page as in IE, the new tab is blank and the new window goes to the home page. I am using Safari and Firefox and can't figure out how to do this in either browser.

Hi,
Try this, I think it works for both Safari and Firefox (not 100% sure on Firefox but think so...)
Press command+l (lowercase L) and then press commandoptionpress return. That will open a new window with the current webpage in the new window. To open a new tab with the same details, omit the option key in the second step.
Command key = one with the Apple symbol
Option key may be called Alt on your keyboard.
Hope that works!

Avoid opening new window on button click

Hi All,
 I have created BSP pages with flow logic.
I have the following pages :
main.htm
selection.htm
details.htm
I have embedded selection.htm and details.htm in main.htm
In selection.htm page I have button .On clicking this button, it opens a new window and displays details there. However , i dont want the new window to be opened . The details should be displayed in the details.htm within the same window.
Here is how i have written the code for button in selection.htm page :
 <ht mlb: butt on id = "submit"
 d esign = "emphasized"
 te xt = "<%= otr(zdfps_google/submit) %>"
 on Click = "submit"
 toolt ip = "Update Map" />
How can I avoid opening of a new window onclick of the button(submit buttton)?

Hi,
If a new window is opening, I think this is because you specify a target value in your form tag that does not correspond to an existing frame or window. For example:
<htmlb:form id="details_form" target="details">
This submits the form in a frame or window with name "details". If it does not exist, a new window shows up.
If you want to submit your form to page details.htm, in the same window, you can use the following:
<htmlb:form id="details_form" action="details.htm">
Note that the target attribute is not specified.
Hope it helps!

Tanguy

Opening New Window on button click

Hi all,
On click of a <h:commandButton> i want to display a new window which is containing datatable. Is there any possible way to do this with out using javaScript? Is there any possible way of doing it inside bean?
If javascript is the only way tell me how to do that.
Thanks...

If you want to do it without Javascript, use links instead of buttons. A bean or a servlet cannot push a new window. Using Javascript it's fairly simple:onclick="window.open('foo.jsp');"

Buttons don't open new window. Buttons go dead

I'm having trouble getting buttons to work at the end of my
presentation. My last slide contains 3 buttons that I want the user
to click on as a "next step."
But, my buttons don't seem to work right. The play again
button only works while the movie is playing. Once the movie stops
playing, the button no longer works. I would like the buttons to
remain active even after the screencast has ended.
Here is link to my screencast:
http://www.kahunadesign.com/RightScale/captivate/RightScale_Demo_v1_buttons.htm
Contact Us and Free Trial buttons are also on the last slide
and don't seem to work. Both links attempt to open a new url in a
new window.
Ex:
"Free Trial" button
Type: text button
Button text: free trial
On Success: open url or file
url:
http://www.rightscale.com
Infinite Attempts: yes
Also, under "Slide Properties" of my last slide, how come
there is a "no action" under the Navigation section? If it's the
last slide, I want it to end/stop, not "go to next slide." Maybe
this is why the buttons don't work? Not sure if the problems are
related.
Thanks,
-Dean

Hi Dean and welcome to our community
Looks like you aren't pausing the buttons? Look at the
properties of each button. There should be a "Pause after" option
for each one. Normally the buttons are set to pause after a period
of time. From the time they appear until they pause, they are in an
active state and may be clicked to evoke their assigned action. But
if for some reason the pause is removed or another action causes
the playhead to move into the "Inactive" area, they will appear and
the mouseover effect will be there, but they will be dead to the
world and not react to any mouse clicks.
Cheers... Rick

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
* https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

BSP code to open new page in new window after button click

Hi expert,
I have a requirement to write a BSP code to open new page in new window after button click. I have done the same for opening in same window but not for opening in new window.
Can you please help me out with the code in which the page opens in new window and the menubar & Addressbar is displayed in hide mode.

Hi,
To add more with Anubhav...
onClientClick = "javascript:window.open( 'pop.htm' ) "
You can create a pop.htm page, and call the same in another page using the above code.
Refer standard BSP examples, SBSPEXT_HTMLB, SBSPEXT_PHTMLB, SBSPEXT_XHTMLB. You can run the default.htm pages and see what way you want to design your BSP.
Thanks,

When a pop up window comes up it is - search bookmarks and history window! I cannot log into my bank as login button should open new window to log in but I get the search page. I cannot see larger images as again I get the search bookmarks and history page etc. Happens on all options that should open new page. I am so frustrated, this has been happening since Firefox updated itself 2 days ago to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0C) was fine before that. using windows vista. Can you please advise what I should do? Also can you go back to previous version? Error console eg

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode?

Button on page opens new window, session times out in old window

Hi,
I've created a custom page and added a button through personalizations in Oracle that opens the new custom page in a new window. When this happens, though, the original window throws the following error when a user attempts to use any functionality in that page:
Error: Cannot Display Page
You cannot complete this task because you accessed this page using the browser's navigation buttons (the browser Back button, for example).
More specifically, the new button has been added to a LOV page in Oracle. Navigation would be: Create timecards page, click on Task LOV button (this opens new window for Task LOV), new button is on this Task LOV page. The new button then opens the custom page, and when the user returns to the Task LOV page to select a task they receive the error.
How do I prevent this error when the new custom page opens from the button?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Suzanne

I have an update to this issue:
I found that adding the value &retainAM=Y to the button URL for my custom page resolves the issue of the time-out in the Task LOV page. However, when I make the task selection in the LOV page and return to the main create timecard page, I find that the session has timed out on that page.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Suzanne

Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
* You can open the Firefox 4.0+ SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
'''''If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Using Struts, On submit button in child window, its opening new window.

We are developing a project using Struts and BC4J. I am opening a child window(window.showmodaldialog) from main window using struts action. Actually Child window is a search kind of page. User will enter the search criteria and press the sumbit button. I want to display the search result in the same window using datatable when jboevent="submit". But its opening new window and displaying the result in that. However in <html:form>, Even I tried the target="_self".
I am not sure wether the associated action in the <html:form> is forcing to open a new window.
Similar kind of thing I am able to achieve in other similar search page, it its not a child window.
Please let me know what I am missing.
Thanks,
Arvind

So you want the search window to submit back to itself so you see the search field and a result list..?
In pure Struts terms either using "_self" or the name of the popup window in the <html:form> tag will do the trick
You need to make sure that the inital window that you created as the popup search window has a name in the first place - can you specify this with showModalDialog()?
BTW isn't showModalDialog an IE only feature...

The open new tab (+ sign button) unexpectedly stopped working when I click on the + sign why?

The + sign button that opens a new tab (called Untitled) stopped working. When I go to File, and click on New Tab, that does not work either. I checked the Options and made sure the "Open new window in new tab instead was checked. I tried System Restore, and I downloaded and installed Firefox 5.0. The + sign still does not work. This problem in on my desktop. I checked my laptop and the open new tab + sign button is working fine. What is happening?

How to open new window and generate oracle report from apex

Hi,
I had created an application that generates PDF files using Oracle Reports, following this Guide.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
And I followed 'Advanced Technique', so that users can't generate PDF file by changing URL and parameters. This is done for security reasons.
But in this tutorial, when 'Go' button is pressed, the PDF file is displayed on the same window of apex application. If so, user might close the window by mistake. In order to avoid this, another window have to be opened.
So, I put this code in the BRANCH - URL Target. (Note that this is not in Optional URL Redirect in the button property, but the branch which is called by the button.)
javascript:popupURL('&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.')
But if the button is pressed, I get this error.
ERR-1777: Page 2100 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Restart Application
If I put the code 'javascritpt ....' in the Optional URL Redirect, another window opens successfully, but the Process to generate report job is not executed.
Does anyone know how to open new window from the Branch in this case?

G'day Shohei,
Try putting your javascript into your plsql process using the htp.p(); procedure.
For example, something along these lines should do it:
BEGIN
-- Your other process code goes here...
htp.p('<script type="javascript/text">');
htp.p('popupURL("&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.")');
htp.p('</script>');
END;
What happens is the javascript is browser based whereas your plsql process is server based and so if you put the javascript into your button item Optional URL Redirect it is executed prior to getting to the page plsql process and therefore it will never execute the process. When you have it in your branch which normally follows the processes, control has been handed to the server and the javascript cannot be executed and so your page throws the error "Page 2100 provided no page to branch to"... By "seeding" the plsql process with the embedded javascript in the htp.p() procedure you can achieve the desired result. You could also have it as a separate process also as long as it is sequenced correctly to follow your other process.

Mike

How to stop Finder from opening new windows to view contents of folders.

I have 2 folders on my desktop, called "Home" and "Work." Both are aliases to files stored in user/documents on my HD. Both contain many folders within folders within folders and, ultimately, documents. When I double click on the "Home" desktop alias, a finder window opens showing contents. When I click on any folder within that window, it does what I want it to...switches to the contents of that folder (within same window, without opening a new one.) This works for everything in that folder.
When I double click on a folder within the "Work" folder, however, it opens a new window at every level. By the time I get to the document I want, I may have 5 or 6 windows open, which I then have to manually close.
I have gone into Finder/Preferences/General and the "Always open new window" box is NOT checked. Any one know why it would still be doing this? (No new applications are opening when I click on the folders, just a new finder window.) And why would it do it for one desktop folder and not the other?
I looked through discussions till my head spun and only saw the Finder/Preferences fix, so I'm hoping there's another fix, like a preference file somewhere that I just need to trash. Any help would be appreciated.
Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)

I don't know if this is the problem, but for windows in "Icon" or "List" view that are set so that the "Toolbar" is not showing, a folder opened within that window will tend to open a new window. This is just a difference in behaviour between the two modes. To show / hide the toolbar, try clicking the elongated button in the upper right corner, in the "titlebar" of the window, or choose "Show Toolbar" / "Hide Toolbar" from the "View" menu.
Additionally, a workaround might be to switch to "Column" view ("View" > "as Columns" ⌘3), since opening a folder within a window in "Column" view does not appear to spawn a new window, even with the "Toolbar" hidden. Another option might be to hold down the "option" key while opening the folder - this causes the previous window to close as the new window is opened.
