Portal page to launch on new "modal window"

Scenario: I have a page that i want to pop-up when i clicked on the workset where the page is linked. i can set the page to launch on a new window from the page object property but i can still click the navigation links when the page is launch. How do you set the page to launch on a new modal window instead of just a new window?
Is it possible to make the portal page act as a modal window, just like the window when i clicked on the portal log off button?

Hi
Try setting the launch in new windoe property to "Display in separate headerless portal window" as described in
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp2/helpdata/en/49/330a07fd695aa8e10000000a42189d/frameset.htm
Hopefully this would serve your purpose.

Whenever I launch a new Google window, Google immediately re-opens all other windows I happen to have open but minimized. I then have to either close or re-minimize each window, one at a time. What a pain!!

Just to address the last point: check your History menu to see whether you have the Restore Previous Session option and use that if you can. If that is grayed out or doesn't restore everything, check the Recently Closed Windows and Recently Closed Tabs lists for other pages.
The unwanted window may be generated by an add-on. Try disabling ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
* Ctrl+Shift+a
* "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
Any improvement?
Here are some other things to check:
(1) user.js file that changes Firefox startup behavior and overrides your preferences. This article describes how to track that down and delete it if you have one: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]].
(2) Possible hijacked shortcut. Check the "target" of the desktop icon you use to start Firefox to see whether it lists the unwanted page. To do that:
right-click the icon > Properties > Shortcut tab
For 64-bit Windows 7, the Target should be no more and no less than this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
(3) Possible undisclosed bundle items. If you have installed any free software recently, check your Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a program for surprises. If you click the "Installed on" column head to group by date, it is easier to spot bundled junk. Remove everything suspicious or unrecognized.
(4) Supplemental clean up scans. Our support article lists tools other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
Hopefully that cures it.

Not launching in new browser window?

I have setup a Flash viewer in a HTML Div container. In the Flash I have put a button which, when clicked, launches a new browser window with another site I've done to appear in.
When I test this in Flash its working fine and launches the new window as it should.
But when I go into Dreamweaver where I have placed the Swf. in the Div container, I test it locally in a Firefox browser window. The viewer appears and it works correctly, but when I click the button to launch the new browser window it just opens a window with an error msg 'unable to connect, etc'.
Any idea why this wont work? Is it because it needs to be live (online)?

Hi,
What is the link that you are trying to open.
Please check if you have placed the protocol - like this http://www.xmy.com" format
and used "_blank" as target in navigateToURL API.

Hello Apex Experts,
I have downloaded the Skillbuilders Modal Page Plugin. I have tried to implement the same but my modal window is not showing correctly. I can see all the fields and scroll bar. I also tried to set the initial height/width settings but no luck.
Can anyone help me?

FYI: I'm using Apex v4.2 on Google Chrome.
Many Thanks,

Bhavin,
Go into the setting in the Shared Components for the plug-in and change the theme from custom to a number (1-5). Also, make sure to read this:

How to launch a new terminal window from the current Finder folder?

Hello. I would like to have something like "DOS prompt here" menu item on the Finder popup menu, so that when I click it a new Terminal window is open and set to the respective directory.
Any ideas?

I don't know of a way to do that... You might be able to use FruitMenu
http://www.unsanity.com/haxies/fruitmenu
and create a script to launch for the contextual menu that does what you want.
I just open Terminal (by clicking the icon on the Dock), type "cd " and drag the icon of the folder I want to go to to the terminal window (and Return). It's a few steps but not that bad.

In Firefox Google Toolbar, when I click "Search" the webpage I'm on closes and I go to the new browser window . Can I keep the webpage I'm on and have the search page open to a new browser window?

When I click "Search" in the Firefox Google Toolbar it closes (it makes me leave) the web page I'm already on. I want to have the page I'm on and the new page available when I click "Search." Is this possible? Can I at least get a tab for the new page? thanks

Default size of new browser window launched from community links portlet

Does anyone know of a way to control the size of the new browser window that is launched when the user clicks a link in a Community Links portlet (or any other links that launch a new browser window)?
We default all users to open links in a new browser window and I can't seem to find any rhyme or reason to how it sizes the resulting window. Some community links come out really skinny and un-user friendly, while others are nicely sized to near full screen.
Is there some way to control this?
Thank you.
Darla

Darla,
Which version of the portal are you guys running? We are currently using 6.5 and all the links/Documents/ExternalLinks/Pages open up in a new browser window with the same sizes.
Its basically controlled by javascript.

New browser window problem

I have many links on one page of my site that open in a new window. After clicking on an image that is in the middle of a page to open a new browser window, when returmning to the original page it has scrolled back up to the top of that page again.
Is there any way of ensuring that the orginal page stays in the place where you left it when returning from a new browser window?
See link:
http://www.nigelhewitt.com.au/_links/MainMenuLinks/CurrentArtwork.htm#
See, for example, if you click on even the second image down and then press close window, that the original page has scrolled back to the top.
Please help!

Your behavior is improperly applied directly to the <img> tag. It SHOULD have been applied to the anchor tag that surrounds the image. In addition, the symptoms you report are caused by your use of the octothorpe to create the 'null link'. In general, behaviors should never be applied directly to image tags. So, change this -
<a href="#"><img src="../../_images/Transience- small.jpg" alt="Transience" width="350" height="321" border="0" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('../EnlargedImages/Transience.htm','CurrentImages','scrollbars=yes,resiza ble=yes,width=1000,height=800')"></a>
to this -
<a href="#" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('../EnlargedImages/Transience.htm','CurrentImages','scrollbars=yes,resiza ble=yes,width=1000,height=800')"><img src="../../_images/Transience- small.jpg" alt="Transience" width="350" height="321" border="0" ></a>
Next, to get around the use of the octothorpe for the null link, you have to kill the link completely 'onclick' by adding 'return false' to the behavior call, like this -
<a href="#" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('../EnlargedImages/Transience.htm','CurrentImages','scrollbars=yes,resiza ble=yes,width=1000,height=800');return false"><img src="../../_images/Transience- small.jpg" alt="Transience" width="350" height="321" border="0" ></a>
Finally, to give yourself a hedge against someone coming to your site with javascript disabled (in which case your open browser window will no longer work), copy the popup's filename to the link to replace the octothorpe, like this -
<a href="'../EnlargedImages/Transience.htm" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('../EnlargedImages/Transience.htm','CurrentImages','scrollbars=yes,resiza ble=yes,width=1000,height=800')"><img src="../../_images/Transience- small.jpg" alt="Transience" width="350" height="321" border="0" ></a>
Now you're all set.
You can find a DW extension to do this dirty work for you by searching the Adobe exchange for "Smart Link" by David Powers.

Launching a new form using web.show_document

Using 9iAS 9.0.2.1.1. and Forms9i I'm trying to get a form to launch a new browser window and open a new form in it. At present I'm using web.show_document to do this. However, I get an error message stating that 'Connection from new browser window is not supported'. From an earlier thread in this forum I found a possible solution which is to set the session.useCookies to false in the zone.properties, which I have done, but I'm still getting the same error. I've tried restarting the OC4J_BI_Forms OC4J and the HTTP server, but nothing makes any difference. Am I missing something?

If you are attempting to print a report from a when-button-pressed trigger from within a form, you do not have to explicitly specify the server (hostname) nor the port. You can just use what I've found referred to as a virtual path to the server as I have done here:
parm_string := '/reports/rwservlet?config=my_config&report=report_name'
     ||'&desformat=pdf&destype=cache'
     ||'&paramform=no&printjob=no'
     ||'&p_my_user_param1='||v_my_param1
     ||'&p_my_user_param2='||v_my_param2;
web.show_document(parm_string,'_blank');
You can specify a userid/password@connectstring within a named congifuration section of your formsweb.cfg file if necessary, e.g. my_config.
Hope this helps.

How to apply different styles to Portlets on the same Portal page?

How do you apply different styles to Portlets on the same Portal page?
I'm new to this kind of thing, but understand that something called "cascading style sheets" can help here?
What are these, how do you use them, and can you make different Portlets (all types - PL/SQL, Java, Applications, etc) on the same Portal page have different styles assigned?
Thanks!

Jeff,
Apply Oracle Portal styles at the region level. Your portlets within each region will inherit the style defined for the region.
You may want to check out Report #40050 at portalcenter.oracle.com, "Design an Attractive and Compelling Portal Interface" for a good overview of the various design features of Oracle Portal.

How to use applescript to click a button in a modal window

When I try to close a Safari page, sometimes a popup (a modal window?) shows up asking if I want to "Stay on Page" or "Leave Page". I'm trying to write an applescript to look for such a window and click "Leave Page". I have trouble referencing the popup. Is it treated as a window in Safari? I asked for a count of number of windows and applescript doesn't seem to include this modal window in the count. I tried something like:
tell application "Safari"
    set theWindows to every window
        repeat with theCurrentWindow in theWindows
              if(modal of theCurrentWindow) then
                -- appropriate action
              end if
        end repeat
    end tell
end repeat
it looks like   "modal of theCurrentWindow" always returns false. So I'm guessing "theWindows" doesn't include the popup. How do I reference the popup so that I can perform some action on it?

It's a sheet, not a "modal". This script should tell you if it's up or not:
tell application "System Events"
tell process "Safari"
tell window 1
if exists sheet 1 then
       display dialog "Sheet is Up"
else
            display dialog "No sheet"
end if
end tell
end tell
end tell

Linking to one new browser window?

Can anyone tell me how to open multiple pdfs from one page in
the same new browser window instead of opening multiple windows in
Dreamweaver 8 (MAC)?

You would not be able to do this by linking directly to the
PDF. This is
what I said in an earlier post.

New browser window after insert record

I need some help in modifying the insert record so the the
goto page opens in a new browser window. I'm working with
PHP/mySQL. I would expect that I need to modify this section of the
code.
$insertGoTo = "new_page.php";
if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
$insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
$insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));
Tried changing the first line to
$insertGoTo = "MM_openBrWindow('new_page.php',' ',' ')";
which does not work. I little help would be greatly
appreciated.

The only way I know is using javascript.
Here I give you an example:
*main.html*********
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript1.2">

</script>
<body>
<center>
<form name="form1">
<table>
<tr><td>Selected value:</td><td><input type="text" name="tf" value="(none)"></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="2" align="center"><input type="button" value="Change Value" onClick="Change()"></td></tr>
</table>
</form>
</center>
</body>
</html>
*child.html*********
<html>
<head>
<script language="javascript1.2">

</script>
<body>
<center>
<form name="form2">
<table>
<tr><td>Value:</td><td><select name="select"><option value="1">1</option><option value="2">2</option><option value="3">3</option></select></td></tr>
<tr><td colspan="2" align="center"><input type="button" value="Change" onClick="Change()"></td></tr>
