Popup -  open Windows Explorer in a new window...

Hi guys,
I'm stuck on how to have a button that opens a new instance of Windows Explorer with a path defined by a variable.
I've got a java popup for a URL which works no problem, but it won't work for a hard drive or network location.
Example, i have the following which will open up a new Google page.
javascript:popUp2('http://www.google.com', 400, 400);
but javascript:popUp2('C:\Windows', 400, 400); will not work, even though I know I can type in hard drive location into the address bar of a browser and know it will work.
Any suggestions no how to do this?

I am also trying to do something similar. I want to launch an application from a button. Basically it is for a virtual keyboard on a touch screen app. To safeguard against the user exiting the keyboard application.
I am using
javascript:popUp2('file://C:/Documents and Settings/colin.mclay/My Documents/Kiosk App', 400, 400);

  • Creating new row right after popup opens (JBO-35007 because of  trigger)

    Hi,
    I have the same popup (with an ADF form) to add and to edit data. But i have two buttons which displays this popup - Add new and Edit, Edit works OK, on add, i insert new record like this:
            DCIteratorBinding dciter =
                (DCIteratorBinding)bindingContainer.get(iterator);
            ViewObject view = dciter.getViewObject();
            Row newRow = view.createRow();
            view.insertRow(newRow);
            view.setCurrentRow(newRow);before popup is open. And it adds a new record. But the record has id -10 (or some other negative number). This -10 is shown on calling page (the page from which the popup is open) in ADF ReadOnly table as -10 as id and other cells in row empty. That shouldn't happen (se bellow why). User then edits empty form in popup, and commits - then i get JBO-35007 because -10 changed to 123 - because of trigger.
    I tried to requery - it doesn't help, see Refresh after pop-up window closes.
    Can you suggest a solution on how to create a row right after popup opens?
    Also,
    i create new record on button's LaunchListener method. This method seems to execute before popup is open and so it affects the calling page also. I think the problem would be solved if new row would be created after popup is opened, not while opening it. (clicking create in popup works fine)

    in my real case, i usually don't show ids; but to simplify debugging, i created test project where i show as many things as possible.
    you mean, creating new record like following?
            bindings.getOperationBinding("Create").execute();I don't use that because i don't get empty fields in popup window (although new record is created). Actually, i don't know how to set this created record to be selected one. Suggestions?
    And I did some more testing, if I create new record with clicking on Create (not creating new row automatically), i get JBO-35007 only if there was selected any other than the first row in table.
    and i tried to move create method binding in pagedef, so it's the first one.. But it seems like there is no effect.
    btw, i found this in one of examples on web:
       <invokeAction Binds="Execute"
                      id="refreshTableViewObjectAfterAddingNewApp"
                      Refresh="prepareModel"
                      RefreshCondition="#{processScope.addedNewApp}" />refresh condition must be true when adding new row and false for everything else. I'm not sure what that does, but it seems to work... :)
    I really shouldn't use the same View Objects in popup and 'master' page, should I?

  • I click a link but it doesn't open. Instead I get a popup saying "Open the link in a new window," "Open link in a new tab," etc. How can I kill this popup or whatever it is forever?

    That happens if the server sends the file as text/plain.
    You can see this if you open "Tools > Page Info > General": Content-Type: text/plain
    Files send this way will always open in a tab.

  • Open Window 'Action' does not work in Explorer

    Mac 10.4.11 G5 GLCS1
    I have created a Open Window action (see attachment) that works fine (if not in very sophisticated way) in Safari and other Mac browsers, it also works fine on PC popular browsers with the exception of Explorer. See for your self at http://www.breweryartists.co.uk/pages/buyaposter3.html
    As Explorer is an important browser on the PC I need help to overcome this problem.

    I'm on CS2 so I cannot tell if something was broken in CS1. This function works fine in CS2.Does it work for you if you create a new blank page with only this action on it?
    Instead of wrangling a lot of bloated javascript, why not craft only what is needed?

  • Open another website in a new browser window

    I can't seem to create links to external websites that open
    as intended in a new browser window while leaving the main browser
    window unchanged. Except in Safari on a Mac. See sample code.
    In Safari on a Mac this opens the new window and behaves as I
    want. In Safari on a PC it opens a new window, but in back. In
    Firefox on Mac I get an error message in which, when the "OK"
    button is cliked on, a new window opens in back of the main window.
    Same thing on a PC. Internet Explorer on a PC opens a new window
    but displays an error message forcing you to clik the back button
    to return to the main page.
    If I specify the main page url in the link field, then the
    main page gets reset to the top, which I don't want.
    How can I get FireFox and IE to accomplish this gracefully?
    To observe behavior go to
    http://www.digifon.com/framesetal_id.htm

    Don't use Frames. However, the issue of opening a new window
    is still
    hotly debated. My own approach is to mark the link with an
    icon and
    then to open a new window (or tab if the user prefers). If
    done
    properly with javascript, this will not spawn a myriad of
    windows and
    Standards-compliant. (And further, if javascript is off, the
    new page
    will simply open in the current window.)
    Based on this philosophy, I offer a DW Extension that makes
    adding this
    behavior dead simple. Here is an example of a page that uses
    it to good
    advantage. Despite all the external links and pdf links on
    the page,
    the Extension only needed to be added once to the page,
    rather than
    adding it to each and every link. Links added to the page
    AFTER the
    Extension is applied are ALSO acted on, a great time saver in
    my
    opinion, and easy on the user:

  • Opening a form in a new window issue

    Hi..
    I have this requirement where I have this page(say XYZPG.xml) which contains a table which is auto populated based on a particular setWhereClause and all this happens in the processRequest as the page loads.
    This page opens on clicking a button in a previous page from where all the parameters for the setWhereClause is sent using fireAction.
    Each Row in the results table in XYZPG has a "detail" button which opens another page in a new window using _blank in the Target Frame.
    The issue is that when Iam clicking the "detail" button,the new form opens in the new window and after closing the form that opened in the new window when I start to perform any action in XYZPG a null pointer is encountered in the processRequest while trying to fetch the setWhereClause parameters.
    Please help in this issue.Its urgent.
    Thanks

    That's because when you close the child window, control returns back to parent form's processRequest. Which version of EBS you are working on? OAF has in-built popup windows feature supported on latest EBS versions which is very useful on many occasions as it has good features like popup closing automatically when a submit button is clicked etc. Check JDev user guide and see if you can use popup windows for your project. If not, you have to capture the event in processRequest and perform required actions again.
    Thanks

    I am trying to update ipod touch from ios 4.3.2 to ios 6.1.3.  I have it connected to my computer, and the summary in itunes indicates the update is available.  However, when I click "update", it opens Windows Explorer and waits for a file name to open.

    I am not at that computer now, but I did check via windows update & with the check updates menu choice in the itunes program  - neither indicated a newer version of itunes is available. (it is a vista computer).
    The itunes software on the computer displays my ipod & the current ios (4.3.2), and indicates a newer ios is available (6.1.3). When I choose "update", I am taken to Windows Exploer and prompted to choose a file to open. it is as if the "update" button has the incorrect code attached to it.
    The ipod is working, but there are several app I would like to install, but I can't with the current ooperating system.

    You have two views ParentView and PDFView. Two views embedded in Window1.

  • Get volumes displayed by default under Home when opening File Explorer in Windows 10 Technical Preview

    Scenario:
    In Windows 8.1, it is to display volumes under This PC by default when opening File Explorer, which is as shown in Figure1. However, in Windows 10 Technical Preview, it is not to display volumes under Home by default when

    i think what he want is to change the Win + E shortcut to This PC.
    I understand that is the goal. I've tried the registry hack, it works, but I found it left fragments of other files from "Home' scatter around in there too. We all been using this new version of windows for a few weeks now, built up a list of stuff
    we have looked at, and that is why I said it's not the prettiest solution. It might have been okay if it was done just after a fresh install. In my alternative solution, you are bringing the This PC icon out to a more accessible place so you
    don't have to use the File Explorer icon to get at the volumes i.e. hard drive view.
    Personally, when I launch the File Explorer, I am expecting to be looking for something straight away on my hard drives and not be presented with a list of stuff that I have already looked at. That kind of thing should be left
    in a Recent Folder sort of thing we use to see in the older versions of windows.

  • Force new tab preference isn't stopping some links from opening windows?

    I am using Firefox 4, the following happens even if all addons are disabled (Safe Mode). I have selected the option "Open new windows in a new tab instead" under Tabs in Firefox options. It seems the javascript call window.open is still able to bypass this preference.
    As an example, the first link on this page still opens into a new window: http://www.javascript-coder.com/files/window-popup/javascript-window-open-example1.html
    Is there a way I can get this into a tab? Is this intended? The context menu does not show an open in tab option. This preference seems to work for this instance in Firefox 3.6.15 (I get the content opened into a new tab) which I also have installed.
    EDIT: Updated to release version above, without workaround, same issue as described.

    The pressure to mark things as solved doesn't change the fact that it isn't solved yet.
    Case in point:
    javascript:getNewsCast();
    always opens in a new window.

  • IE11 Opens blank tabs, must use new window

    I'm running Windows 7 Pro SP1 with IE11 on my desktop. About two months ago I d/l'd all updates through the usual windows update and let them install. Shortly afterward I noticed that IE11 was no longer working correctly. I would click on a link and a new
    tab would open but it was blank. I then tried it with open in new window and it would do nothing. Then I tried the usual disable add-ons and such with the same results. I then tried using the reset and it kept telling me that I had to close all open window
    and programs. despite nothing open or running. Then I booted in safe mode and was able to successfully reset IE. I tried once again to use IE and the same thing continues to happen. IE11 has basically been rendered useless. I even tried going back to prior
    versions like 10 and even 9 with the same results. Troubleshooting came up with nothing.
    Can someone please help? I'm using Firefox as my default now and would like to go back to IE11.
    Thanks

  • Open popup window and bring text to opener window jsp [help~]

    how to click a button then open popup window.
    and add somthing in the popup window, that can bring the text in the popup window to opener window in jsp.

    This is a javascript/html question, and has nothing to do with Java/JSP.
    You could do it with plain javascript/html using window.opener.
    I would recommend using something like a [YUI 2 Panel|http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/container/panel/] to do it.
    Opening new windows is a thing of the past.
