Setting New Browser Window Size

Hello out there -
I have an HTML page with a flash peice containing nav buttons
linking to a photo tour by location:
http://www.snowolf-digital.com/clients/rysaw/map_test.html..
Anyway, I am trying to get a new browser window to open in a
specific size (675 x 500).. The test location (button) is "Folsom".
Currently the new window opens fine using the( _self) command - but
I am unable to get the exact size for that window.. Here is what I
tried in the button action script:
on (release) {
getURL("photoload_folsom.swf","_self('width=675,height=500')")
Any ideas out there? Is this something really easy and
obvious and I am just missing it?
Much appreciated,
Chris

How Do I Set a Specific Browser Window Size?

I have a question about setting a browser window to open up
at a specific size. I would like to have a pop-up window open up to
a 400 x 600 pixel window. Is this possible in Dreamweaver? Is there
hard code I can place in to make this happen? Any help on this
would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks...:-)

Select the link that will open the new window, and then apply
the Open
Browser Window behavior from the Behaviors panel.

Set browser window size?

Is it possible to set the browser window - specifically IE - when opening my form when using seperateFrame=false?
I am developing a single window app that is lost in the IE window when it starts up. I would like to size the IE window in relation to my app when it opens.
Also, can I display something other than the dark grey background surrounding my form - perhaps replace it with a nice jpg?
Thanks
Richard

Richard,
- only if you start the browser window from another using javascript (window.open()) you can define the size of the browser window.
- set background = <image name> in the formsweb.cfg file

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.

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.

Set the height and width of a new browser window

I am trying to open a new browser window when the user clicks
on an audio. The audio will be played in the new browser window.
The only problem I have is that I cannot set the height and width
of the new browser window. I need the window to be much smaller.
How can I do this in flash?

You need to ask on a JavaScript forum. Java != JavaScript

New browser window with javascript

Hello,
I'm trying to accomplish something similar to what has been
discussed in other threads (Jess Learnin, 9/30/2008, and another
thread from back in '07). I've tried the advice given in these
threads and have had no luck. I would like to create a button to
call a new browser window that displays a URL of my choosing. I'd
like to specify the size and attributes of the new window. I've
created a small dummy tutorial in order to work on this feature.
I'm using the "Execute Javascript" option when configuring
the button. I include the following javascript:
window.open('
http://lib.berkeley.edu/BIOS/index.html',
'myWindow','height=400, width=700, toolbar=no');
I have the Captivate button context set to "Current". I have
deselected "Continue Playing Project" (though I've tried it with
that option selected as well).
I've tried prefacing the script w/
"javascript:window.open...", but no luck.
I'm testing the file on a development server, rather than
from a local copy. When I test in Firefox, my movie simply stops
when I click the button, without opening a new window or loading a
web page. When I test in IE7, the movie stops and I get a message,
"Error on page"; still no new window.
I do notice that I'm currently running Flash Player 10. I'm
using Captivate 3. When I publish my file, my options only go up to
Flash Player 9, which is what I have chosen. I don't know if this
would make a difference.
I have also tried altering the standard.js file in the manner
that jbradley88 suggested in the 9/30/08 thread, and using the
corresponding javascript in the button properties window, with
similar unsuccessful results.
I have tried running the movie on a different computer, in
case some local setting was somehow mucking things up. I get
nothing.
Any suggestions? If anyone's willing to take a look, I can
send along my small dummy .cp file that I've been working on.
Thanks in advance.
-Kelly

Hi John,
Here's the exact javascript that I currently have associated
with the button:
void(window.open('
http://lib.berkeley.edu/BIOS/index.html',
'myWindow','height=400, width=700, toolbar=no'));
I've tried multiple permutations, including placing
"javascript:" in front of the script, both with and without the
void().
The message in IE7 just says "Error on page". It's not a
pop-up message; it's just the small message that appears at the
bottom left of the browser window in IE7 when a page fails to load
properly. The message doesn't appear until I click on the button
that's supposed to call the javascript. There's a yellow
exclamation point icon that appears next to the "Error on page"
message. When I click on that I get:
"Problems with this Web page might prevent it from being
displayed properly or functioning properly. In the future, you can
display this message by double-clicking the warning icon displayed
in the status bar."
It also displays a pointer to the error:
Line: 1
Char: 111
Error: Syntax error
Code: 0
URL:
http://library11.berkeley.edu/bios/kelly/Practice_demo.htm
I looked at the source for the page as displayed by IE7 (have
also looked at the .htm and .js files generated by Captivate) and
haven't seen anything obvious, but I'm somewhat unschooled in such
matters.
If it would help to see what it does, you can view the demo
at the URL above.
Thx again,
Kelly

Want To Have Flash Project Open In New Browser Window

Hi,
My project outputs and plays perfect to Flash (let default to
Flash 7) but when viewing it (via a link from a web page) it opens
in a "next" window and at the end, if you use the X (EXIT) button
from the player control bar it wants to close the browser window
and does not take you back to the webpage (where I have the link to
play). I cannot seem to find an option in the Preferences or during
output to make the player open in a "new" browser window. Is it
possible there is a browser setting for this instead of setting in
Captivate? (IE 6 or 7) Thanks for any help/suggestions!

Hi leh1, and welcome to the User Community for Captivate!
The window in which any content plays is determined by the
code contained for the link,
in the web-page from which it is launched. In a nutshell,
you add these parameters to the link when it is created in the
"Parent" window.
Below is a snippet from a Menu Builder project in which the
links to "Project1" and "Project2" are set to open in a "New"
window, without chrome (note the many "
=no" following an equal sign), at a size of 720 pixels by
540 pixels ... the snip below shows a link to "Project1.htm", a
document containing a Captivate movie. I have bolded the specific
entries that control the type window ("OpenCustomLink") and the
size of that window ("width=720,height=540"):
<P style="cursor: pointer; cursor: hand; position:
absolute; left: 90px; top: 149px; text-decoration: none; font:
normal 18pt Arial; color: #000000" title="Project 1" onclick="
OpenCustomLink('project1.htm', '_blank',
'scrollbars=no,status=no,
titlebar=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,resizable=yes,
fullscreen=no,
width=720,height=540'); "
onmouseover="this.style.color='#0000FF'; "
onmouseout="this.style.color='#000000';">Project 1</P>
(some spaces inserted to avoid horizontal scroll)
All of which is to say, the target window is controlled from
the link in the parent document. I wouldn't suggest you just
copy-paste the above code, as I took liberties with it. I
would suggest that you can do this yourself with your own
HTML editor (Dreamweaver, etc.), or even better, get your local
web-guru to do it for you.
All the best!!

How to show an HTML page in a new browser window

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to show a page generated by some servlet in a new browser window when the button is clicked on the applet. I can accomplish that by using AppletContext as in:
myApplet.getAppletContext().showDocument(servletUrl, "_blank");
The only problem with this is that I don't have any control over how the new browser window is displayed. Using JavaScript I can set size, hide toolbar and address bar, etc. But how can I hide address bar on a new browser window generated in this scenario?
I tried to call intermediate servlet from my applet which in turn generates a new window by writing out JavaScript code. This way I lose my previous page with the applet even though a new window is displayed the way I wanted but I want this new browser window to act as a pop-up box and my applet page stay on screen. Also, is there a way to send a POST request from an applet by using AppletContext.showDocument() method?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance,
Y.M.

Did you ever figure out a solution for this? I too would like to open a new browser window to act as a pop-up box and my applet page stay on screen. If anyone has any thoughts on how to do this, please post! thanks.

Opening a URL in a new browser window

Hello Experts,
I am trying to open a dynamic url in a new browser window from a Portal application (travel and expenses). Basically, when a user clicks on the submit button, Badi IF_EX_TRIP_WEB_CHECK~USER_CHECK_CHANGES is called. In the BaDI, we have added code to concatenate a parameter to a url and then open a new browser window with that url. This works perfectly in r/3 using a tcode (pr_web_1200) but when I use the portal application under ESS, the window does not open and no error message is issued. We are using METHOD cl_gui_html_viewer->detach_url_in_browser. Any idea why this is not working through ESS in Portal? Is there some other method that we need to use? Any help is appreciated.
Regards,
Sal

Re: Open Portal Transaction iView in new window *without* Browser window
for iView (page) you probably set the property 'Launch in New Window' to value Display in Separate Window. To tune up the other otions you have the possibility to set the property Window Features, value should contain toolbar=no. These features will be used when Javascript opens up your window - you can apply any option coomonly documented. IMHO for your demands the best option is fullscreen=yes,toolbar=no - you get really the maximum possible size.

New Browser Window not working on My Mac Intel pro

I have set a behavior in Dreamweaver CS3 to open a new
browser window to a set size and to only show scroll bars if
needed. I have left all other attributes unchecked. This is not
working for me. Can you tell me how to make a new browser window to
my settings using the behaviors in Dreamweaver CS3? I do all the
steps right. what do I do when I follow all the steps for setting
up a new browser window correctly and it doesn't work!? The new
browser window never pops up even when i use an image map. The
Behavior is not working correctly and I even re-installed
Dreamweaver CS3. I am on an intel based mac pro. Running Firefox
version 3 and Safari 3.1.2 on Leopard. I have done this several
times before and it has worked. but that was before Leopard. Here
is my code:
<area shape="rect" coords="4,3,78,77" href="#"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('images/02.jpg','','width=378,height=504')">
The only way I can get it to halfway work is add it into the
link area
on the properties panel. The window will then open but not to
the
specified size.?
please advise as this is taking a long time to figure out!?

This is an unusual way to go about doing this. Typically you
simply put
the thumbnails up on the page rather than combining them into
a collage
and then adding imagemaps to that.
Nevertheless, it can be done.
You have code like this:
<area shape="rect" coords="0,0,80,80" href="images/12.jpg"
target="_blank"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('images/12.jpg','','width=378,height=504')">
Try adding
;return false
to each like this:
<area shape="rect" coords="0,0,80,80" href="images/12.jpg"
target="_blank"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('images/12.jpg','','width=378,height=504');return
false">

Cache problem for servlet opening new browser window

Requirement:
I have JSP page say summary.jsp with link "print account summary"
When user clicks on this link, new browser open with PDF document of summary.jsp
This new browser window should not have address bar and toolbar.
Solution:
Servlet called PrintSummary which sets contenttype=application/pdf and sends the data to outputstream.
href of link is
Java script function is:
function openWindow(url){
window.open(url,'blank','toolbar=no')
Problem:
Since the URL of this new window is
http:// host:portnumber/PrintSummary
Even if I click the "Print summary" link for account2,
being the same URL (http:// host:portnumber/PrintSummary) it accesses the existing page in the cache which is created for account 1.
In href if I just use servlet url as
I get the expected behaviour but then I don't have control on browser appearance and browser window will be with address bar and toolbar.
The only option I could think of was changing URL as follows:
<% String url ="javascript:openWindow('PrintSummary? var1="+ Math.random()+"')";
So that URL is different all the time
Is there any way to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance
M.

I'd definitely try to use a Flex popup... but the
flash.net.navigateToURL method is a simple way to open a popup
window in a new browser. You can pass any data needed by the new
page using the URLRequest and/or URLVariables. The URL you navigate
to could, of course, be another Flex application if necessary. I
use this only when I need to open a popup window on another site,
or an HTML formatter report or something similar.
Concerning yourself with the size of the popup window may be
a bad design choice also. I, for example, have my browser
configured to open all popups in a new tab regardless of sizing
constraints imposed by the designer. If it is absolutely necessary
for you to have control over the size of your popup window, you
should follow the advice given by others and use a Flex
popup.

Hi,
You can specify an intermediary html which inturn will make the call to servlet.
myApplet.getAppletContext().showDocument(html,
"_blank");
in the HTML onload make a call to servletURL using
self.open(servletURL, "_self", options);
in the options you can specify size, toolbar, etc.
Hope this helps.

Open New Browser Window Behavior

I have set a behavior in Dreamweaver CS3 to open a new
browser window to a set size and to only show scroll bars if
needed. I have left all other attributes unchecked. This works fine
in all browsers including IE6 but IE7 ignores all my settings and
just opens a normal full size browser window showing scroll bars,
address bar, menus etc. Can anyone tell me how to make IE7 open a
new browser window to my settings using the behaviors in
Dreamweaver CS3?
Thanks.
Russ.

I cannot reproduce this in IE7. Your OBW behavior works just
the way you
want for me. In your code, make sure that this is all on one
line -
<li id="cam"><a href="#"
onclick="MM_openBrWindow('
http://jkbmwebcam.co.uk/','webcam','width=640,height=480')">Webcam</a></li>
