"Save as" opens new window

In CS 3 I was able to use the "Save as" option to save the file as another name and keep it as the active window without having dreamweaver open a new tab or window. Anybody know how to do this? Is there an option somewhere in CS 4? I open and save as many files and adding the extra "click" to close the previous window is taking up time.
Thanks!

Control-w will close the active file. I am saving in consecutive order.
File name - 01.txt > save as >
next filename - 02.txt; 03.txt; 04.txt
and so on.
The active file used to become the new file name and not open it in a new tab or window. So, I have to close the previous window each time. It is a little more cumbersome than you might think when we are talking about 50 to 100 files copying and pasting.
Thanks for the help,

Firefox won't save my setting for 'Open new window in a new tab instead' when I close Firefox.

When I am doing my internet banking I need to have the setting option for 'Open new window in a new Tab instead' Un-checked (disabled). Problem is this setting is not being saved the next time I open Firefox. That is every time I close Firefox (all open window and tabs), the next time I open it up again, this setting has re-enabled itself again. I just can't get Firefox to remember this setting for me.

Opening New Window or Explorer

Hi Everybody,
My scenario is like this I have one Webdynpro application which contains two Views , First View contains one Link (LinkToAction) when ever I clicks on that link Second View Should open in New Internet Explorer means new Window,
For this I have created 2 Windows which is having first/second view.
Following Code is there
 IWDWindowInfo windowInfo = (IWDWindowInfo) wdComponentAPI
 .getComponentInfo().findInWindows("SecondWindow");
 IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager().createWindow(windowInfo,true);
 window.setWindowPosition(300, 150);
 window.show();
 // Save WindowInstance in Context
 wdContext.currentPopupElement().setWindowInstance(window);
But still its opening same Window or explorer.
I tried with this method also.
IWDWindow window = wdComponentAPI.getWindowManager()
.createModalWindow(windowInfo);
Still it is not opening New Window.
Please help me out by opening New Window.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Adam willams,
FIRST OPTION
The sample webdynpro url is like this:
http://<hostname>:<port no>/webdynpro/dispatcher/*******/<Application Name>
In the above URL, only hostname and portnumber may change if you switch to different server. So, in the code, if we are calling any application using the URL, we need to get the hostname and portnumber dynamically so that, even if we switch to different server our URL will work.
try {
 InetAddress addr = InetAddress.getLocalHost();
 // Get IP Address
 byte[] ipAddr = addr.getAddress();
 // Get hostname
 String hostname = addr.getHostName();
 } catch (UnknownHostException e) {
store the host name and portnumber in variables and form the URL
String URL = "http://"hostname":"port"/webdynpro/dispatcher/....../<YourApplicationName>"
SECOND OPTION
Following is the way to do it
http://localhost:50000/webdynpro/dispatcher/demo.sap.com/firstapp/FirstApp?ToSecondView=yes
Here the parameter name is ToSecondView and the value for it is yes
To read this from Webdynpro use
//value will hold the value yes from the url.
String value = WDProtocolAdapter.getProtocolAdapter().getRequestObject().getParameter("ToSecondView");
Now, in the view init() write the above code.
If value contains yes then you have to navigate to view 2 immediatley. If not be in the same view only.
Suppose if you access the url directly, you will see the view1.
If you want to open view2 in the pop up window, call the URL, http://localhost:50000/webdynpro/dispatcher/demo.sap.com/firstapp/FirstApp?ToSecondView=yes.
In the opened window, it will show view2.

VJR.

How do I tell Logic to open new windows always on my external monitor (when available)?

Hey guys
I finally got my own copy of Logic 9 from the App Store and I'm very happy with it.
I have a question though. Logic always open new windows (e.g. when opening a project or when opening a plugin, etc.) in my Macbook Pro's monitor, but at home I have a big external screen which I want to use as the main screen.
I already have set the external monitor to be the main screen in the System Preferences, so the dock and menu bar always display correctly on my external monitor when available. But Logic still uses my MBP's monitor as main monitor, so I have to move the windows to the external display every time I open them.
Is there a way to tell Logic to use my external monitor as default when it's availble?
Thanks, Josh

There is a thing in OSX that is called "key focus" or "focus".
When you type on your keyboard (text or any keyboard shortcut), the OS has to know where to send that command to if you have multiple windows open (or multiple applications). The answer is, it directs the command to the window that has "key focus".
The key focus window is the one with the active window title bar (not grayed out) and the colored three buttons in the upper left corner (unfortunately, Logic doesn't use colors).
Now to Logic:
Logic follows the same rules. However, you have to pay attention to multi-pane windows like the Arrange window. This is a window with more windows (panes) inside. Now the question is, which window pane inside that window has key focus. If you look closely, then you see that the window frame changes their shade slightly (sometimes very hard to see). Pay especially attention to plugins. They also have key focus when selected and can receive keystrokes.
Finally to your question.
You cannot set the preferences on which monitor screen Logic opens a window. This is determined by the location of the window that has currently key focus. Any new window and also alert windows and dialog windows (Save, Open) will open on that screen.
So if you want a window to open on you external screen, click on a Logic window on that screen.
I have five monitors on my Logic setup and I use a QuicKeys macro (push one button) that sets the key focus to my main monitor and now any new window will open on that screen screen.
Hope that helps

Won't open new window, only tabs

Previous version I could change option to open new window rather than tabs in 'tools' - 'options' This does not change anything. Also, it no longer saves 'home page'

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).

How to open new window and generate oracle report from apex

Hi,
I had created an application that generates PDF files using Oracle Reports, following this Guide.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_integrate_oracle_reports.html
And I followed 'Advanced Technique', so that users can't generate PDF file by changing URL and parameters. This is done for security reasons.
But in this tutorial, when 'Go' button is pressed, the PDF file is displayed on the same window of apex application. If so, user might close the window by mistake. In order to avoid this, another window have to be opened.
So, I put this code in the BRANCH - URL Target. (Note that this is not in Optional URL Redirect in the button property, but the branch which is called by the button.)
javascript:popupURL('&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.')
But if the button is pressed, I get this error.
ERR-1777: Page 2100 provided no page to branch to. Please report this error to your application administrator.
Restart Application
If I put the code 'javascritpt ....' in the Optional URL Redirect, another window opens successfully, but the Process to generate report job is not executed.
Does anyone know how to open new window from the Branch in this case?

G'day Shohei,
Try putting your javascript into your plsql process using the htp.p(); procedure.
For example, something along these lines should do it:
BEGIN
-- Your other process code goes here...
htp.p('<script type="javascript/text">');
htp.p('popupURL("&REPORTS_URL.quotation&P2100_REP_JOB_ID.")');
htp.p('</script>');
END;
What happens is the javascript is browser based whereas your plsql process is server based and so if you put the javascript into your button item Optional URL Redirect it is executed prior to getting to the page plsql process and therefore it will never execute the process. When you have it in your branch which normally follows the processes, control has been handed to the server and the javascript cannot be executed and so your page throws the error "Page 2100 provided no page to branch to"... By "seeding" the plsql process with the embedded javascript in the htp.p() procedure you can achieve the desired result. You could also have it as a separate process also as long as it is sequenced correctly to follow your other process.
HTH
Cheers,
Mike

When a pop up window comes up it is - search bookmarks and history window! I cannot log into my bank as login button should open new window to log in but I get the search page. I cannot see larger images as again I get the search bookmarks and history page etc. Happens on all options that should open new page. I am so frustrated, this has been happening since Firefox updated itself 2 days ago to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-GB; rv:1.9.2.8) Gecko/20100722 Firefox/3.6.8 ( .NET CLR 3.5.30729; .NET4.0C) was fine before that. using windows vista.

What is the correct way to open new window with launchDialog & returnDialog

Hi,
JDev : 11.1.1.1.2.0
My current page url is http://127.0.0.1:7101/ThruputApplication/faces/Test.jspx?_afrLoop=21785535204821&_afrWindowMode=0&_adf.ctrl-state=d1x4f8z6p_9 and
From this page, I trying to open new browser window using command button's action method with below code
FacesContext facesContext = FacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
ViewHandler viewHandler =
facesContext.getApplication().getViewHandler();
StringBuilder strBuilder = new StringBuilder();
UIViewRoot dialog =
viewHandler.createView(facesContext, strBuilder.append("/reports/LPLReport.jsp?").append(sURL).toString());
Map properties = new HashMap();
properties.put("width", Integer.valueOf(500));
properties.put("height", Integer.valueOf(300));
AdfFacesContext afConetxt = AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance();
afConetxt.launchDialog(dialog, properties, null, true, null);
New browser window is getting open successfully but after opeing this new window if I do any operation such like selecting item from selectOneChoice or checkbox selection from the screen from which I have launce new browser window then is giving me below message.
Are you sure you want to navigate away from this page ?
There are one or more dependent dialogs open. Navigation from this page will invalidate any open dialogs.
Press OK to continue, or Cancel to stay on the current page.
I have also tried AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().returnFromDialog(null, null); to return dialog but its giving me below error:

Firefox will not open new window, Why?

I have Vista home base premium operating system. I am a regular user of Mozilla firefox after had lots of positive feedback as one of the best browser. I had no problem for a good while, until recently I found out my add-on firebug stop working. Then I noticed that firefox stopped working properly, ie; it will no more open new window/s. One window will open after rebooting and i can have a number of tabs opened. When I right click on a web link and take the option to open it in a new window it will not open. When I take the option to open it in a new tab then that would be ok. When I go to the toolbar and click on File and chose option "open new window" again it will not open. I have on many accasions completely installed Firefox using the IObit software and use the advance system care to clean the registry and completely scan the system. I then reinstalled the latest version of Mozilla Firefox. I did that twice. The problem is still there. About the ad-on firebug, when I go to the toolbar and click on Tools, i can see Firebug with the extended arrow, but when I click on the arrow to the extended options, it simply would not respond.
There must something going on, please help.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]

Firefox 4 was set on "Open new windows in a new tab instead." I unclicked that to test opening in a new window. Decided to go back to the tab option, clicked on it but it does not engage and Firefox 4 continues to open in a new window. Is this a glitch?

I did try rebooting, no go. If anyone knows a way to get that option working, it would be appreciated. Thanks.

(''Note: cross posted from [https://support.mozilla.com/nl/questions/801471 here].'')
I had the same problem, but was able to fix it somewhat.
# Open the about:config page.
# Set the ''browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction'' setting to 0 (= zero).
On my machine this will open new windows in a new tab. However, it switches to the new tab regardless of the setting ''"When I open a link in new tab, switch to it immediatly"''.

How stop FF31 from opening new window? I want to open all links in new tab at top of page.

I think the following, quote below, from the help page is my problem.
I have this one website I use that when I click on a link within the website it is opening a new window with the tab at the bottom. Also, when this happens, I am losing the orange FireFox rectangle, bookmarks and navigation options. How can I set FF31 so that the link opens in a new tab and I keep all my options? I am using Classic Theme Restorer 1.2.3. I also notice that in the new window I lose the ability to use some of the addons.
I have two laptops and both are running FF31 and W7. One of them is working perfectly and the other is having this problem. As far as I can tell they are both set up the same. The only difference is that when I upgraded to FF31 they both had difference older versions of FireFox. I also read in the help forum that maybe I need to go back to FireFox 28 to accomplish what I am trying to accomplish.
I noticed that when I go under about:config that the version of FF that is not working has fewer available options versus the version that is working. An example would be that the working version has "browser.tabs.onTop" where on the other laptop this is missing.
>>>Open new windows in a new tab instead: This option controls whether links from other applications or from web pages which request to open them in new windows are opened in a new window or a new tab in the most recent window.
Note: If you have chosen to open pages in new tabs, Firefox will ignore this option and will open a new window from a link if the page author specified that the new window should have a specific size, because some pages can only be displayed correctly at a specific size.<<<
Thank you in advance for any help,
yeto

You can override how links are opened via the browser.link.open_newwindow.override pref.
*http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow
*1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
Use this for links opened via JavaScript.

'Open New Windows In A New Tab' is not working when the popup is invoked by Flash

I surf a lot of porn sites. And some of them invoke a popup if you click the play button of their Flash player. Even though I have FF set to 'Open New Window In A New Tab', this isn't working if a window is invoked by a Flash object. For example, if I want to watch porn clip on tnaflix.com and click the Play button, then a popup window of livejasmin.com comes up. But it doesn't open in a new tab. It opens in a new window, even though I've set the above mentioned option. This is very annoying. Please, fix it.

Thanks for the responses and sorry for taking a while to get back. I have been looking around but not sure where is the "about: config page." When I click on Firefox "about" there is nothing to configure. What do I click on? TIA

Just downloaded Firefox 6.0 and have restarted 4 plus times, but it continues to hang while launching. I cannot open new windows, change any settings, or do anything but Force Quit. I'm on Mac OSX 10.5.8. How do I get past this hang?

Long story short: Simply get CC for teams. At 500 bucks a year it's a steal and those 5 licenses in the base package (or was it 10 even?) cover all your computers, at least the 3 ones you mentioned. For system requirements refer to the individual product pages.
