PDF Opens in parent window

We are creating PDF Form in Adobe Live Cycle ES 8.2. These forms are rendered in an IFRAME within browser.
On IE7, when we submit one form (On pressing submit button on pdf) we have save XML data in database and redirects on Form List page.
When we reopens same form again and again, PDF opens in TOP frame instead of iframe.
Everything works fine in first time with fresh browser (IE7), The code is running successfully on Mozilla and IE8.
We can reproduce this error on IE7 + Adobe reader 9.2 machine
Please suggest.

Which PDF viewer are you using?

Three links to open in parent window

I have built a slider that includes three different links (one for each slide) that need to open in the parent window. When I apply the Action using Open URL and target the parent window they still open in a new window.
Is there a way to configure the window.open action to target the parent window when an Edge Animate object is placed into an index file?
Any help would be appreciated.

1st, thank you so much for trying to help me with this. I truly appreciate it.
Window.location did not work either. Left the target as parent too, still a new window.
This is within a CMS editor that I have an iframe surrounding the index.html page holding the edge animate object for within our intranet.

Word hyperlinks converted to PDF-open in new window???

I currently use Word 2007 to build indexes with hyperlinks and convert to PDF using Adobe Professional 9. I know how to set my Adobe preferences so that hyperlinks open in a new window, but I want to set this on the document level for each index I create. I also know how to set each link within the final pdf to open in a new window (if I go through each and every link preference). I must create the hyperlinks in Word as there are many instances that my indexes change prior to distribution of the discs and I don't like having to duplicate, triplicate, etc. my linking process in Adobe as some of my indexes contain 300+ links. I only know of JavaScript but not enough to use with confidence... I want the hyperlinks to open in new windows (as that has always been my instructions to the end user) without the end user having to fumble around with their systems and settings. It has just been brought to my attention that my discs do not have that function set. Meaning, that what I view and test on my system is not the same as the end user. The hyperlinks open in the same window (dang it!!). I did see a JavaScript solution but keep getting an error (on line 2). Here is the JavaScript I found in the forum: app.openInPlace = false; //Opens cross-document links in separate windows.
So, I have muliple questions...
Is this sript the best way to accomplish the document level open in a new window function?
Is this script written correctly? (I did cut and paste this script within the brackets)
If I use the JavaScript and save, does that save in the Adobe application system or just on the document level? And then how do I delete if it doesn't work properly?
What other functions can you suggest I try?
Any suggestions would be helpful!

Where did you place that script, exactly?
It should work, there's probably just an error in how you added the text of the script. Try removing the comment so that there's only one line of code:
app.openInPlace = true;
Note that this changes the user preference, which is generally frowned upon, so you should endeavor to set it back to what it was in the first place when the document is closed. This would involve storing the value of this property when the document opens, change it if necessary, and restore it when the document closes. It also won't work for those users who have JavaScript disabled.
Unfortunately, link annotations are difficult to alter in an automated way given what's available in Acrobat. It would be possible with an Acrobat plug-in to make document-wide changes to all of the links, but I'm not aware of any that do this. You might want to search around.

Using Adobe Document Services PDF opening in separate window

With EP 7.0 SP13 and WebDynpro for ABAP we are using Adobe Document Services to create a Print Preview with a PDF. This is not an Interactive PDF. In most cases the functionality is working correctly. We have one user where the PDF opens in a separate window outside of the portal environment. When this happens the buttons we have added to the bottom of the PDF for event processing (return) are on the portal window, but unavailable to the PDF.
What would cause the PDF to open in a separate 'session' and not in the active portal session?

The problem was on the users workstation copy of Adobe. There is a parameter that allows the PDF to be opened in a separate window.

External site to open in parent window

How can I open an external linked window inside my parent
window?
or
Opening an already designed website inside my parent window
via link in the parent window?

When you open the original window, give it a name. Make the
links on the
external window target that name.

FOP - PDF open in same window, not as a pop-up

Hello, all,
I have a report that is transformed into a pdf in a new window when I click the 'output to pdf' link (all created by following the PDF tutorial). I also found a way to make that PDF appear in the new window when the report page loads, through an onLoad javascript call.
The trouble is, if I reset my report parameters, the pdf pops up with the data from the Previous report, and I have to click the output to pdf button again, or reload the page, to get the correct data. I'm thinking this is because the onLoad function creates the pdf before the report region (with the new parameters) gets created.
My boss wants the page to actually contain the pdf, and not have the pdf pop up in the new window, thinking that this will solve the problem. Is there any way to make this possible?? I have a feeling that it means editing the htmldb_pdf.js file, but I was hoping someone out there has already explored this and might tell me where to look.
Thank you all very much.

PDF opens "save as" window instead of opening (in Firefox)

Hi all,
I am using Captivate 5.5 to publish to .swf.
In my project I have a button set to open a URL or file, with a path to a PDF file.
It used to work fine in all browsers, the PDF would open in Reader or in a tab when the button was clicked.
However I just noticed that when using Mozilla Firefox, clicking the button now opens a "save as" window to save the PDF file, rather than display it. What happened?
Behaviour is fine in Chrome or IE.
Issue occurs whether the PDF is set to open in the actual or a new window, and whether the project is set to continue playing or not.
The project is entirely published and read locally.
I am at a loss. Can anyone give me a tip on how to configure my button to work the same in all browsers?
Thanks.

Never mind, I found the answer.
A matter of setting the Firefox options so that PDF files open in Reader or whatnot rather than prompt to save.

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...

Why does email hypertext in PDF open web browser window in addition to email client?

Using FrameMaker 10, I created the following hypertext: message URL mailto:[email protected] I then printed to PDF. When I click the link in the PDF it opens an email client message window (what I want) but also opens a web browser window with mailto:[email protected] in the address bar (what I don't want). Why would it open both? I don't know if this is a Frame issue (more likely), an Acrobat issue (less likely), or a browser issue (not likely). I hope I'm just missing something easy here.

Should have given the following info earlier...running Win 7 64-bit with Outlook 2010 and Acrobat X Pro. That being said the path to verify "mailto" is different but it is set up fine. Same with Acrobat X Pro...settings are fine.
Also, in reply to Harry28586 this is happening with Firefox, not IE (I should have mentioned that as well).
I've found plenty of threads searching online regarding issues with email links in Acrobat on Win 7 machines with Outlook...many suggest editing the registry. I have no problem doing that but this is a work laptop and we have a don't-fix-it-yourself policy. So I'll keep looking. Thanks for all the suggestions.

How to make the parent window inactive when a child window is opened

hi everybody, i am chaitanya. i am working on a window based application. there are some action events in it. when an event occurs then a child frame is opened prompting the user to confirm for yes or no.
the problem i got is, when the child window is opened the parent window is also active. I dont want this to happen. please help me to fix this problem.
thank you all in advance, have a nice day.

Use a modal JDialog, or better still given the apps. requirement for input, a JOptionPane. The JOptionPane.showInputDialog() or JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog() methods seem well suited to the task.

How to trigger javascript in parent window which opens a pdf in iframe after event (didPrint)

My main goal is the following:
1. PHP generates PDF using fpdf <-- OK
2. javascript: PDF opens in an IFRAME <-- OK
3. PDF prints silently using emb java <-- OK
4. After print, call a function in my javascript <-- Problem
I tried window.onload() in java, but this seems to fire once the window is loaded. Means, that the pdf itself is not loaded and hence the print process has not started.
I'm currently exploring to use setAction(didPrint, action) to create a robust trigger -
function AutoPrint($dialog=false)
//Open the print dialog or start printing immediately on the standard printer
$param=($dialog ? 'true' : 'false');
$script="print($param);";
$script.="setAction('DidPrint', app.alert('test2'))";
$this->IncludeJS($script);
So, this prints and generates the alert box.
But, I'm clueless on how to fire a command to call a function in my java script....
Help is appreciated.

If you are using Forms 9i or Patch 9 and above of 6i you can use Jinitiator 1.3.n With this version of Jinitiator you can submit URLs containing JavaScript commands as well as http:// URLs.
The syntax is web.show_document('javascript:<command>','<target>').
e.g) web.show_document('javascript:history.back();','_self');

Opening a PDF in a new window

I'm using Captivate 3 and have a button with a simple link to
a pdf file. The pdf file loads okay but it takes over the popup
window which the training is in.
I'm using an LMS and the Captivate file appears in its own
window, i've tried changing the url to either
current/new/parent/top but its not what i want.
new causes it to open a new window in the same popup window
which i could 'possibly' have, best solution of a bad bunch.
But want to simply click on the link and a brand new window
opens with the pdf ? Sure i've tried everything ?
Any ideas ?

Hi psj3809
Since you seem to have exhausted all the Captivate supplied
possibilities, I'm guessing the only recourse you really wish to
consider may be to use JavaScript. You may be interested in the

Could some one give help and let me know where I can probably find the settings option that allows me to change and switch to previous situation where it was possible to decide time to time how to proceed either opening the file or saving it ??
