Problem when OPEN a new browser session

Hi,
I like to open a new browser in my program when user click on the URL.
I did this:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler " + URL);
However, it just didn't open the new browser and it used an existing open browser to launch the URL. I just don't want to lose that session.
How could I force to open a brand new window?
Thanks a lot for your help.

I have my browser configured so that requests like that open up in a tab in the existing open browser. I did that because I want it that way. And if I am using your program, I still want it that way and that's all there is to it. It's my computer and my browser and you don't get to override that.
However, if you don't like how it's working on your computer then go ahead and change your browser's setup.

Just installed Firefox 9.0.1. When opening a new browser session, two tabs will open. One is my home page and the other is a Firefox welcome page. I just want my homepage to open. How do I achieve this? Thanks.

Frequently, when waking the computer up from Standby and opening a new browsing session, I get a message that Firefox is already running and needs to be closed, even though it was closed during the previous session. I use Task Manager to close it.

Internet connection is AT&T highspeed DSL via Westell modem. Antivirus is AVG 2011. OS is XP Home SP2, circa 2002.

How do I set the desired search enging when I open a new browsing window?

When I open a new browser window, I used to get the Bing search engine option but now only the Yahoo search engin is shown. How do I reset the system to show Bing when opening a new browser window? thanks.

I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that you've got a custom timecode field somewhere in your production and/or asset metadata group(s), right? And I'm going to further guess that this timecode field has dashes in it like this --:--:--:--, right? If so, try this: Click the arrow next to the timecode field and adjust the timecode so that it has a number (it doesn't matter what the number is as long it's not dashes - "00:00:00:00" is fine). Then Save this asset, close it and then reopen it and see if the beeping madness has vanished. Then, to make this change permanent for all of your new assets, make sure to edit the default value of any custom timecode fields to put zeros (or some other numeric default value) into them when a new asset is generated. If the asset still beeps when you open it, check the other metadata groups in your set to see if there isn't another empty timecode field lurking in the shadows.

After closing a browser window and if I open a new browser window , the browser will not open per my home page in tools/options/startup, it loads the last page

recently when opening a new browser, everything Is using and closed during my last session will open
multiple widows will open and whatever tabs were open per respective windows will open and not per tools/options/startup/homepage
this has never happened until just recently and nothing else seems to have changed nor has any new programs etc been loaded or changed

You can check if you have a user.js file in the Firefox profile folder that sets the browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once pref to true.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.sessionstore.resume_session_once
You can use this button to go to the currently used Firefox profile folder:
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
Note that Windows hides some file extensions by default.
Among them are .html and .ini and .js and .txt, so you may only see file name without file extension.
You can see the real file type (file extension) in the properties of the file via the right-click context menu in Windows Explorer.
You can check for problems with the sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak files in the Firefox profile folder that store session data.
*Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory: Show Folder (Linux: Open Directory; Mac: Show in Finder)
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/Multiple_profile_files_created
Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost and you will have to recreate them (make a note or bookmark them if possible).

Af:fileDownloadActionListener - any way to force new browser session?

Hi all
I'm using af:fileDownloadActionListener to download a file.
It works fine except for one thing:
For some file types it does not open a new browser session but just replaces the existing page content.
That's really ok by itself, but we have a problem if the users presses the browser Back Button to get back to the application.
As we're using partial page rendering and af:region this will result in an error:
Error 403--Forbidden
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.4 403 Forbidden
The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it. Authorization will not help and the request SHOULD NOT be repeated. If the request method was not HEAD and the server wishes to make public why the request has not been fulfilled, it SHOULD describe the reason for the refusal in the entity. This status code is commonly used when the server does not wish to reveal exactly why the request has been refused, or when no other response is applicable
So my question is: is there any way of forcing a new browser session to open when using af:fileDownloadActionListener?
We're using JDeveloper 11.1.1.1.0.

Tove

CL_GUI_HTML_VIEWER need to open a different Browser session if one exists

Hi All,
I'm using the class cl_gui_html_viewer for displaying a PDF in My program. However, if an Internet Explorer Session is already open, the HTLM_VIEWER created in my program is behaving more like a child of the already open browser (In other words, it works like pressing CTRL+N on the original window). But my requirement is to open a new Browser session altogether (Like Opening up another Internet Explorer Session).
The reason i need to have this is because the PDF i display is based on an authenticated login. If a person is already logged in through the Stand alone IE browser, my program should not allow the same user to view it in the browser but authenticate again by prompting for a login. This is achieved by using different Browser sessions (not by CTRL+N).
Please let me know if you have any thoughts on achieving this.
Thanks in advance,
Jr.

where is this PDf coming from, is it from external source thru a url? can you pass uid/pwd to this PDF via url,
if yes, pass a wrong uid/pwd thru the url , every time you load the pdf, in the html viewer control, this would always prompt for authntication box. other option is to delete the sso2 cookie, you need to find a method to delete the cookie in your local machine created by calling this pdf from standalone browser.

How not to get back on the page i just closed when opening a new session

A new tab opens by default as a blank tab (about:blank).
If that isn't the case then an extension has changed that behavior.
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration 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.

I close Firefox session and then try to open a new browser window - get message that Firefox is still running and I need to shut down and restart. Need a solution

I close a Firefox browser and at a later time want to open a new browser window but get message "Firefox is still running and I need to shut down before I can open a new session" I do not want to shut down as this is laborious - I can go into task manager and processes and click on Firefox and end session that way but this is not the solution. Firefox seems to be running in background but I cannot open a new session window without doing on of the above.

Have a look at this post, see if it is of any help (though related to Vista, but same issue can be there with Window 7 also)

Hello. I have a new Computer and import my mediathek with an externe storage. When opened the new Mediethek in front of every song there is a explanation mark: original song could not been found. I try everything. Whats the Problem??

Hello. I have a new Computer and import my mediathek with an externe storage. When opened the new Mediethek in front of every song there is a explanation mark: original song could not been found. I try everything. Whats the Problem??

But it seems the OP has a setup where the media is on the external drive, and the library files are on the internal. This is what I refer to as a split library, Migrating such from one computer to another is not straightforward. Often iTunes will have some definite idea about where the files should live, and updating the setting of the media folder won't change that. If it requires a drive letter change that is usually not too hard, but sometimes there is another preference file that needs tweaking to indicate which of the old & new layouts for the library is being used. In more extreme cases I have a script for automatically making track by track repairs.

JavaScript for opening a new browser window.

Hi all,
Let me start by saying that I'm not JavaScript savvy at all.
I have two buttons on a slide and I want each to open a new browser window.
I Googled for a script and found this:
window.open ('URL')
I tried in my project and it worked fine but the browser window that my project was running in also changed.
I've attached a .gif image of what happens to my project window when either of the two buttons is clicked.
Can anyone help??
