PDF links open in same IE7 window

Our organization recently upgraded to IE7. With this, links inside PDF files will not open in a new window or tab, they will only replace the active browser window. IE7's settings are for all external program's links to open in a new tab and all do except PDFs. How do I get the links in PDFs to stop replacing the active browser window and open in a new tab like they do in Word, Excel, etc?

Is the link an HTML link, or within a PDF? Is it a URL link or a file link?

Have PDF links open in new browser window.

Hello. I'm new to creating PDFs with active links. I created a PDF that is linked within a page. When that link is clicked it opens up the PDF in a new window. I want the links in that PDF to open up in a new browser window. Is that possible? I don't see the option in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.
I have another question. The links don't work at all in mobile devices. Is there something I have to do to have the links work in an iPad, iPhone, etc?

Is the link an HTML link, or within a PDF? Is it a URL link or a file link?

How can I use terminal to make links open in same window the default behaviour, as it was in Safari 5.0, How can I use terminal to make links open in same window the default behaviour, as it was in Safari 5.0

In Lion, the default of pressing a link on a web page, is to open the page in a new tab. In itself, I do like this because this is what I did for 19 out of any 20 links, which I command+clicked in previous Safari versions.
However, there is a snag to this behaviour. Most (all?) secure site do not like links to be opened in a new tab. For example, when I am doing Web banking, The the linked page doesn’t open in new tab. Rather I get a page telling me my login session is expired. Probably a security measure instituted by my bank.
I since found out, that a command-click opens lings in the same window. Theoretically that solves the problem, if I would think about this all the time. I don't. Old habits die slowly.
Is there a terminal command to make links open in same window the default behaviour, as it was in Safari 5.0.

Hi Eric,
I got it figured out today, basically you have to load the Parallel Flash Loader first into FPGA ram. It is a special .sof file (pfl_epXXXX.sof) based on your FPGA. Code is actually pretty straight forward, using the Sys Exec VI. Use the windows based programmer to generate the .cdf file that identifies your FPGA, attached Flash and .pof file .
Syntax was odd going into Sys Exec. Note the extra "C" in in front of the "quartus_prm.exe" I have no idea why that was needed, but I was getting an error until I just happened to put it in there (Blind Luck :-))
I used a 2 element array going into a four loop
cmd /cquartus_pgm.exe -c USB-BLASTER -m JTAG -o P;pfl_epXXXX.sof
cmd /cquartus_pgm.exe -c USB-BLASTER -m JTAG S_FPGA.cdf
Defining the working director C:\altera\12.1sp1\qprogrammer\bin
And added match string with "Successfully performed operation" on the output in the loop to make sure everything loaded correctly then adding the array to give me a overall P/F
To anyone doing this same thing Altera's documentation is poor to say the least. It took most of a week to figure this out Not allowed to upload code, so anyone wanting details just post here and I will try to help. This was painful, with lots of lessons learned.
Thanks for the interest though
Best regards John

Link opening in new browser window

For the links in my flash navigation at the bottom right
corner, I'd like them to open up in the same browser window. When I
open the page for the first time, any link I click on will open in
a new browser window. But after this, all links open in the current
window. Any idea why this might be happening?

If this helps - the script I include for each link follows
this format:
on (release) {
getURL("
http://www.vantageinter.com/profile.html",
self)
}

it is _self not self
and if you don't include it at all, by default the parameter
is set to _self

Links open in a new window...

I have a rotating banner that I have created and it receives it's image and url info from an XML document. When you click on the image displayed it takes you to the correct link but it opens it in a new window. Is there a way to make the link open in the current window? Thanks in advance!

navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://your.link"),"_self");

How do I make all links open in a new window?

I have some RSS feeds on my website. If you click one of their headlines it takes you to that source to read the story. Is there a way to make all hyper links on a webpage open in a new window? If not, is there a way to make the individual links open in a new window? The website is http://www.businessfixer.net/articles

Mark,
Target: e.g. <a href=”#” target=”_blank”> is deprecated (outdated) code. Strict doc types will not pass validation.
OP,
Most people know how to use their browsers BACK button to return to a site. Or better yet, right click on links to open them inside new tabs or windows. This should almost always be a user's decision and not a web designer's decision.
If you have all links open in new windows/tabs, In no time at all, user's browser will be stuffed with them which is ugly and can diminish browser performance.
If you need to open a new window on SELECT links, use the Behaviors Panel, press the Plus sign (+) and select Open Browser Window. Repeat this for all links you want opened in new windows.

How can I make multiple PDF links open in the same second tab, instead of a 3rd, 4th etc.

I am working on a project for my Universities 125 year anniversary. Essentially I've created a 125 year long digital yearbook, with a link to the University's actual digital yearbook for each individual year. I'm wondering if there is a way that I can make all of the yearbook links open in the same second page.
IE: Main Project open in a window, when I click the 1939 Yearbook pdf hyperlink, the 1939pdf will open in the second window. I then want to find a way so that after this, on the main page, I can click the 1940 yearbook pdf link and have the 1940 yearbook load on the second window, replacing the 1939pdf, instead of just opening the 1940pdf on a third new tab/window?
Note: I have all of the yearbook PDF's online and downloaded, so I can make the hyperlink send you to the site, or do a download style thing.
Thank for any help, and if anyone needs further information just ask me!

Hi
Please take a look to this thread Re: Can I refresh the browser rather than open a new tab?

PDF links - open in new window

I have a PDF document that has web links that were created in InDesign, then exported as a PDF. Once in the PDF, the links are fine but I would like for a new browser window to open when they are clicked rather than within the same browser window. I can't seem to find this in the preferences or properties, etc? How do I do this? Thank you!

Is the link an HTML link, or within a PDF? Is it a URL link or a file link?

How Do I Make HTML Links Open in Same Window?

Hi
How on earth do I get the HTML links inside a flash movie open up in the same browser window where said movie is embedded in (As opposed to opening up as a new pop-up windows)? Here is the code I have inside each of the buttons I have inside my flash movie:
var link7:URLRequest=new URLRequest("videos/december.html");
videos_btn.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, buttonClicked7);
function buttonClicked7(event:MouseEvent):void
navigateToURL(link7);

Thank you thank you thank you!!!

When interactive pdf opens in browser window can the pdf links open in separate windows

Problem is the pdf works ok when it opens in the browser window, BUT the links in the pdf don't open in separate browser windows, as they do when the pdf is downloaded as a file.
If pdf links can only open in separate browser window when the pdf itself opens as a separate file, the how do I email a pdf download link on a website.

Hello Yesh,
you can open PDFs as a guest user (without authentification):
1. Allow Guest Access (Admin -> Security Configuration -> Check "Allow Guest Access" and select a folder name).
2. Copy your Report into this guest folder
3. You can open the Report as PDF with a link like this:
http://(bip-server-name):9704/xmlpserver/(guest-folder-name)/(report-name)/(report-name).xdo?_xpt=0&_xf=pdf&_xmode=4(&report-parameters)
Just replace the strings in brackets. You find a great description of the URL parameters in Tim Dexters Blog
http://blogs.oracle.com/xmlpublisher/2006/07/accessing_xmlp_enterprise_repo.html
I didn't find an option to set the height of the PDF-Output for the guest user in the BIP-UI. Maybe I missed something. But you can manually edit the configuration file. It is located on your BIP server direcory in the subdirectory xmlp/XMLP/Users. Select the guest users subdirectory and edit the configuration file "user~.profile".
In this XML config file there is an entry "viewerHeight". In the Value-Tag you can enter the PDF output windows height in pixel (but unfortunaly not in % - this was the question of my original posting).
Hope that helps...

How to make link to another wiki page open in same WebCenter window

I have a WebCenter wiki page that contains a Flash object. Within the Flash object, there's a link to another wiki page that is in the same group space. When I click on the link, however, it opens another Webcenter window within (inside) the original one instead of opening the destination wiki page in place of the current one. In effect, I end up seeing two navbars at the top and left.
How do I fix this problem?

Brilliant, Jon. Thank you so much. For those of you who stumble on this, I did have a tiny bit of trouble when I edited the actionscript; the video didn't play as expected. After trial and error, this is the code that worked both in playing the video and opening up in the same browser window:
navigateToURL(new URLRequest("http://www.paris-pet.com/home.html"),"_self");
The difference seems to be this: ") before the comma prior to "_self");
Again, Jon -- thanks!

FF 19 for Mac. changed preferences to open PDFs with Acrobat Reader. Now when I click on a pdf link, an about:blank FF window opens (pdf then opens)

The change in preferences opens the pdf appropriately with Acrobat Reader, as desired, but before it does, FF opens a brand new blank window (about:blank). How can that action be stopped?

Yes, I mean the eternal application.
Ctrl-click does open the dialog, but that does not cause new/blank FF window to show up.....however shift-click opens the new/blank window, then opens another FF window with a "New Tab" heading, then opens the pdf with Acrobat Reader.....
If open the dialog and select "open in new tab" (open in Acrobat Reader is not an option), a new tab is opened, and the the pdf come up in Reader (without opening a new FF window). In earlier FF, it just opened directly in Reader (or acrobat) without opening a new tab or window.
Thanks

Forcing pdf to open in current browser window

I have a pdf (that is to be viewed through a browser) with
links that open other pdfs. Currently, when I click on the links in
this pdf, they open the linked pdfs in a separate browser window.
Is there a way to force it to open in the same window and just have
users hit the back button to go back to the previous pdf?
Thanks!

The latest version is 11.0.6. Whether that's available to you depends on the version of Mac OS you're running.

See the following articles.
* [[PDF files are blank or cause an error message on Mac]]
* [[Use the Adobe Reader plugin to view or download PDF files]]

Firefox 15.0.1 stops responding (100% cpu) when a link opens in a new window.

Whenever I click a link that is designed to open in a new window Firefox goes straight to 100% cpu usage and I have to go through the Windows "end now" sequence to close the program. I've tried opening one of the links in a new window but I think it was done in java not html (not sure if all the links are java when this happens as that's the only one I've tested). Not sure what details someone might need but this is on my Mom's older laptop with Windows XP Media Center Edition Ver. 2002 Service Pack 2. Hmmm just saw the SP2 will try to update and see what that does though I don't think that's the issue.

So what is happening or not happening now ? The problem computer is your Moms, but I assume your own computer works ok. Have you tried that on the same internet connection as your Mom uses & visiting the same sites?
Also try Internet Explorer. If that is also very slow the problem may not lie with Firefox.
I suggest you try the Firefox Reset feature on your Mom's computer,
* BUT first of all
**make a note of the software extensions that are in use, and bookmark their download and support sites.
** back up the Firefox profile [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
* follow the instructions in the following article, after reading the caution about what will be lost
**[[Reset Firefox preferences to troubleshoot and fix problems]]

PDF links open numerous pages in safari instead of saving file or opening it in preview

I changed by mistake an application opening PDF links from preview to safari. No it's a catastrophe as when I click on those they open thousands of new windows and everything stops working. I changed default program for PDF files to preview, but it didn't help. Does anybody know where in safari I can change default app ? SOS

Oops, sorry, I menat in Firefox. Posted to correct thread. Post can be deleted
