Safari--open in new page--pop under?

Is there a Safari preference setting that causes new pages to load under the one currently being read instead of on top? I like the sort-of tabbed browsing, but most often, I want to read the linked page only after I've finished the page I started with. As it is now, I see something I want to look at later, click open in new page and am automatically zipped over to it, so I have to switch back to the original page, then wait for it to reload. What sane person uses the Internet the way it does now?!?
Should I submit it as a bug if there is no way to fix this?

It's not a bug. It's how Mobile Safari works on the iPhone, iPod and iPad. I've gotten used to it, and I'm quite sane! It was annoying at first, now I don't even think about it. Remember, there's limited real estate on the iPad to implement everything we would want. It is supposed to be a stripped down version of a full powered browser, to make it load faster with less bandwidth, to make it visible on the screen, etc. I think it's a good compromise.
But if you want to make a suggestion to improve it, go to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • Everytime i open a new page on Safari..a resource windows opens..why?

    Check the Home page setting.

    I cannot open a new page from the Firefox favorites menu, it worked before in other versions and this new 5.1 version, but stopped working a few days ago, uninstalled, downloaded a fresh program.. same problem exists. I usually leave my 'Home Page' as a stable page and just open 'new' pages for i.e. Google, Internet Banking etc. the '+' sign on my home page or other loaded pages does not operate, hate having to now constantly sign in to my hotmail home page if and when I open new pages, can you help?

  • I have an iPad 2, and every time ii attempt to open a new page "about blank" appears. What can I do to get rid of this from my system baring in mind that I am not particularly computer literate.  Many thanks

    I have an I pad 2, and when I attempt to open a new page "about blank" appears. What can I do to remove this from the system baring in mind that I am not particularly co outer literate.
    Many thanks

    Is this in safari?
    try going into settings, safari and clear history. You may also want to clear cookies (means you will need to sign back into sites)
    It's possible that that page is a popup ad of some sort that can't run, for example a flash based ad.  You may have picked the cookie up browsing the internet and now that it's in there the only way to get rid of it is to clear your history and cookies.

  • Open a new page from a button of table view

    Hello,
    I search how to open a new page when i click on a button of a table view. I already tried to use navigate connector but i have an error when I compiled it (flash doesn't support). Do you know a workaround or tips ?
    Thanks,

    Hi Aurelien,
    Why don't you try creating a pop up iView on clicking the button on your table view.
    You can have a look at this link for understanding how a pop up iView works:

  • Can i Open a new page behind the current one in the browser?

    Using Safari, if I press a link to 'open in new page' is there a way to have the new page open behind the current one? I can choose it on my laptop browser(windows). It's really annoying when I choose 'open in new page' and the current one is whisked away, then I have to minimise it and go back to the original.

    There are other browsers available that have the tabs feature which is so much handier when navigating from page to page like you want to do.
    Look at iCab (my favorite), Mercury and Atomic. All three have many more features than Safari has.

  • Web-app icons always open a new page?

    Is there any way to prevent homescreen webapp shortcut icons from always opening a new page in the browser? It sort of defeats the purpose of keeping cool little webapp shortcuts on the home screen if I'm constantly closing extra browser pages all the time. Might as well just use bookmarks within safari. I use certain apps several times a day, and end up with a bunch of instances of the same app all "open" in safari each time I return (counterintuitive). Is there a setting that I'm missing, or am I better off using bookmarks?

    At this point it appears that you can't control it. I would assume that the link the icons calls up has an added target="_blank" or a javascript window.open command. As these are added at the time the icon/link is created, you can't go back and edit them out.

  • How to open a new page from a Spry Table click, with element info?

    Hello, Spry experts!
    This is probably simple, but I've searched for hours and can't find what I need. I'm using Dreamweaver CS4 and Spry 1.6.1 to create a simple Spry Table from an XML data set using PHP as my back end.  I've used Dreamweaver's Insert->Spry->Spry Data Set to create everything, and the table is working fine.  Colors, clicks, sorts, etc., are all working correctly as expected.
    What I want is to be able to add a behavior such that when a table row is clicked, I can open a new page.  Moreover, I want to pass a parameter from the table to the new page, like http://www.mydomain.com/newpage.php?aid=12345 or whatever.
    So, for example, my table has two columns, "a_id" and "a_name", and my repeat region looks like this:
    <div spry:region="xml_assignments">
    <table width="500">
    <tr>
    <th spry:sort="a_id" class="spry_header">ID</th>
    <th spry:sort="a_name" class="spry_header">Assignment</th>
    </tr>
    <tr spry:repeat="xml_assignments" spry:setrow="xml_assignments" spry:odd="spry_odd" spry:even="spry_even" spry:hover="spry_hover" spry:select="spry_select">
    <td>{a_id}</td>
    <td>{a_name}</td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </div>
    What I want is to be able to open an entirely new URL, passing the value of the {a_id} in the selected row as a parameter to the new URL, as in something like:  http://www.mydomain.com/newpage.php?aid={a_id}
    So my questions are: 
    1. How best to apply the action to the table?  Add an onclick to the tr tag?  Something else?
    2. How to extract the {a_id} value from the current row and pass it as a parameter to the action?
    Or maybe just take another approach entirely?
    I know that I can make the actual text in the table cells hyperlinks, and use them to link to the new page, which is fine.  The desire here is just to make it so that the user can click "anywhere" on the table row (as they can currently do with the spry:select behavior) and have the link kick off, whether they actually click on the linked text or somewhere in the row where there is no text.
    I'm sure this is obvious and simple, but I'm new to this level of Spry detail, and my brain is fried from hunting.  Any guidance will be gratefully appreciated!
    Glen Barney

    I found the answer myself, after posting this, of course!
    I changed:
    <tr spry:repeat="xml_assignments" spry:setrow="xml_assignments" spry:odd="spry_odd" spry:even="spry_even" spry:hover="spry_hover" spry:select="spry_select">
    to
    <tr spry:repeat="xml_assignments" spry:setrow="xml_assignments" spry:odd="spry_odd" spry:even="spry_even" spry:hover="spry_hover" spry:select="spry_select" onclick="window.location.href='./newpage.php?aid={a_id}';">
    Basically just added the onclick parameter...
    And it all just worked!

  • All of a sudden I can no longer open tabs by clicking "+" or right clicking on the tool bar. To open a new page, I have to open a whole newFirefox window. How can I fix this?

    All of a sudden I can no longer open tabs by clicking "+" or right clicking on the tool bar. To open a new page, I have to open a whole new Firefox window. How can I fix this?
    Also, Firefox crashes frequently. Is there a fix for this also?

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox 3.6 that prevents new tabs from being opened.
    There are a couple of places to check for the Ask toolbar:
    * Check the Windows Control panel for the Ask Toolbar - http://about.ask.com/apn/toolbar/docs/default/faq/en/ff/index.html#na4
    * Also check your list of extensions, you may be able to uninstall it from there - https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Uninstalling+add-ons
    For the second issue, the [[Firefox crashes]] support article may help.

  • Clicking on a link to open a new page or tab gives me a blank page.

    If I click on a link to open a new page or a new tab, the page that opens is always blank and no address is in the address bar. Also, occasionally, my refresh button is "grayed" out so I can't hit that either. I think this is some sort of security setting blocking it. Can anyone help.

    Thanks Jason, I had the same problem and did exactly the steps above. Problem solved! You rock! :)

  • How do I change from AVG Secure Seach to Goggle as the default search enging bor the the search bar and when I open a new page?

    When I load Firefox, the default search engine goes to AVG Search. I'd like to change it so that the default search engine on the search bar is Google. In addition, when I one a new page, the new page home page defaults to AVG Search. I'd like opening a new page to default to Google. My initial home page goes to the Wall Street Journal, which I want to keep, but want to change for the search bar and when a new page is opened to Google.

  • In Indesign I would like to be able to have the tools and the controls open automatically when I open a new page or document. Now I have to select them in the windows drop down.

    I do not want to have to choose these two controls or tools in InDesign each time I open a new page or doc. How can I make them open automatically?

    With nothing open, try pressing the tab key, and/or resetting the workspace.

  • When I click a link to open the page in new tab, it open the new page beside my page.

    After I update FireFox to version 3.6.8, I could not open the new page in the last tab, it always opens the new page in beside the tab.
    Mmm…I could not make sure the new page or new tab I said is the same with you…?? (I use Chinese version so that I don’t know if it’s the same or not…)
    A window could open several pages with different tabs, and I could click different tab to different page, right?
    If I right clicked a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same window, the new tab opened in the last tab of my window.
    But after I update FireFox to version 3.6.8 and I click a link to open the page to “new tab” in the same windoe, the new tab will open beside my page. (Mmm…Open on right of my page.)
    I would like the “new tab” open to the last tab in my window, not “beside” the tab I used. How could I change the setting??)
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == After I update FireFox to 3.6.8

    That feature isn't new to 3.6.8, it was changed in 3.6.
    Type '''about:config''' in the URL bar and hit Enter.
    ''If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.''
    Filter = '''browser.tabs.insertRelatedAfterCurrent'''
    Double-click that preference to change the value to '''''false'''''

  • Menu bar button hyperlink to open a new page?

    I want to know if there is a way to add a hyperlink to a Menu bar button to open a new page showing a pdf file?

    To open url on button click, you can use the following example, that I used in one of my cases...
    Z P/L analysis
        ls_button-text     = 'P/L analysis monitor'.
        ls_button-tooltip = 'P/L analysis monitor'.
        lv_string1 = 'javascript:window.open( "'.
        lv_string2 = '" );'.
        CONCATENATE lv_string1
        lv_url2
        lv_object_id
        lv_string2
        INTO lv_string3.
        ls_button-on_client_click = lv_string3.
        ls_button-page_id  = me->component_id.
        ls_button-enabled  = abap_true.
        APPEND ls_button TO rt_buttons.
        CLEAR ls_button.
    Comments:
    - lv_string3 represents the URL
    - lv_url2 contains the url of bsp component, which you can build manualy or read from any table with select single statement
    - lv_object_id represents the id of opportunity which you can read from BOL or with one of crm_order_read function modules
