Shockwave in a new window
I want to run my shockwave app. in a window without menus and
scrollbars.
I use IE and XP
this is my HTML:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.open('ProConfDemo.asp?user=admin','ProConfDemo','toolbar=no,directories=no,location =no,status=no,menubar=no,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,width=994,height=740');
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.open('Varenummer.htm','Varenummer','toolbar=no,directories=no,location=no,status=no ,menubar=no,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,width=656,height=500');
window.opener = self; window.close();
</script>
my problem is that the first window does not close
automatically. It asks me If I want to close, Can this be done
without the question?

Whenever I try to open a new window, nothing happens. This includes clicking ctrl+N and through the drop down menu.
Also, whenever I start firefox to browse the internet, it always open with a Session Restore with the previous session listed, even though I closed all the tabs and shut it down normally without any prompts telling me about saving multiple tabs.
Finally, when I tried to troubleshoot this problem, the tab never appeared. The only options that work on the Help Menu are:
- Firefox Help (after a few clicks)
- Report Broken Web Site
- Check for Updates

When i create a new window, firefox Yanks me back to where i was and i dont want to be yanked back.
i duplicate current pages by create new windows on a very frequent basis;
to do this, i go to the top of the page that i want to duplicate and right-click and click on Open Link in New Window;
I specifically want to duplicate the page i am on in another Window, not a new tab;
Because
Duplicating the current page to Open Link in New Tab, gives tabs on the top of my screen;
Duplicating the current page to Open Link in New Window, gives 'tabs' on the bottom of my screen;
I want 'tabs' to show on the bottom of my screen and to do that i have to Open Link in New Window;
My question and What is happening, is that firefox is yanking me back to the page that i have just duplicated by right-clicking at the top of the page and clicking on Open Link in New Window;
When i create the new Window, firefox yanks me back to the page that i just duplicated and i dont want to be yanked back to that page;
I want to stay on the page that i just duplicated.
I have tried changing the way tabs work in Options but nothing checked or unchecked results in the specific way i want to have new Windows open and STAY on that newly created Window and not be YANKED back to the window i duplicated.The original window did not have a Flash object, but does the window that hides itself contain a Flash object? That is the usual pattern for this bug in the plugin's protected mode feature.
If you have not already tried disabling it, the following pages/posts provide different ways to do that:

Flash needs to completely unload from memory (restarting Firefox might help) before this would take effect.

Captivate 5.5 published files are not visible in Fire Fox or open in new window.
When I publish and post Captivate 5.5, the HTML or the swf files do not display in Fire Fox (latest version) without forcing the file to open in a new window (if it displays at all). If it does work, the Flash security blocks the swf on an ugly view until the user clicks.
I thought it was because I have to assign a direct URL to each component, but all of the other Captivate sites I have reviewed have the same issue when viewing in Fire Fox.
IE will display after the active x is authorized (I can live with that).
You Tube and other Flash display properly in Fire Fox, just not Captivate products.
I have disabled off all plugins, modified the protected settings, and everything I could find listed in the Fire Fox help. I have installed a previous version of Flash and Shockwave Player. Short of reinstalling windows, it is not working and that will not help because the published content is not visible on any other machine in the office or at home.
The files are in a Portal, so I cannot share them unless you are in the DoD and have an AKO or DKO account.
However, here is another example of the Captivate not working.
https://clc.dau.mil/games (this displays on some computers, but not all)
http://www.hartisd.net/pages/uploaded_files/Assignment_Search.mht (After allowing the mht, this displays in IE)
I am not sure if it has something to do with the other 2 published xml files that are not directly referenced in the html, but I just need either the swf or html to display in the iframe without forcing another window to display and without a lot of dependecy issues with other add-ons in Fire Fox.
- Thanks!Any of the DAU games, if they display. It is a government site, so they have the standard gov garbage (stuff not working like certificates), but nothing is harmful nor can they do anything to track other than the current session.
It is kind of weird how the content is displayed... It is not an intranet, it goes to a limited access portal. When I store content, it uses an absolute path instead of relative path. Very aggrevating when using many of the tools for non-programmers (like me), and probably more aggrevating for programmers.
Whether I point directly to the .swf or to the generated HTML, the content displays in IE, but not in FF.
It may be a combination of FF and Captivate. FF seems rather flaky in dealing with swf files. There is the consideration for add-ons, but I tried on a newly imaged computer and it still was not working. Even after going through all of the FF steps to get it to work.
Basically we had to create a new HTML file to display the content because the Captivate published files don't work. However, the new HTML does not reference the XML files.
When I publish, I get 5 different files, .swf, .htm, .js, and 2 .xml. When I dig through the code (once again, not a programmer, soo I may be missing something), even round tripping to Flash, I do not see how the .xml files are referenced at all.
These may be different topics, not sure, it came up because I am trying to get a simple solution from the product that can be easily transferred to our production servers and available for Solders to access.

Firefox freezes sometimes when I try to open a web site in a new window.
For the past few weeks I am having an intermittent problem with firefox freezing. It happens when I try to open a site in a new window. Most of the time I have to go to task manager to close it and re-start. And almost always when I re-start it freezes for a second time and then I have to open it a third time. Usually if I try to restore a session it will happen over and over again so I have to start a new session. I have windows 7 and the latest version of firefox.

When I open a check picture from my bank register it opens in a new window and I cannot print from that window. I want to be able to print to the pdf printer so that I can save a copy of my check to the hard drive. I do not have any access to any printers from this window that Firefox opens. It works fine in Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. Any ideas on how to resollve this?

After Firefox has been running a while, every link opens a new window
After Firefox has been running for a while, every link starts opening in a new window. Until today, if I closed Firefox and restarted it, it would stop happening ... until it started happening again. Then today, I closed it down and restarted it, and it was STILL happening. So either I find a solution, or I stop using Firefox on my Mac.
This is a vanilla installation - both for the Mac and Firefox. I don't use the Mac as my main computer. The Mac is running OS X 10.5 8. The problem has existed through many upgrades of Firefox. I always upgrade as requested. This last time, however may have been the killer. A new upgrade was installed right before the problem became unfixable by shutting down and restarting. I'm running Firefox 15.0. I just rebooted, however, and now (for now), it's working properly.
I have no add-ons installed in Firefox.
My only plug-ins are iPhotoPhotocast, QuickTime, SharePoint, and Shockwave Flash.
I've seen multiple reports of this problem on this Web site, but no solutions. Just a generic recommendation to disable add-ons to see which one is conflicting. But I'm running no add-ons. I think there's a bug in Firefox.If it were an extension or theme or a Mac driver, wouldn't it cause the problem consistently? This only happens after Firefox has been running for a while. I'm using Firefox to type this reply right now, and the problem is not happening.
And it's not because I suddenly start using some offending software. As I said, I don't use the Mac as my main computer. Usually I'll have been using my PC, I'll go back to the Mac to check my email on Firefox, and suddenly the link problem is happening. I only use the Mac to check email on the server before I download it with Outlook (on the PC) so I can delete spam on the server first. -
When I navigate to a web page that has a link, such as the link to a data sheet and click the link (usually an insert page), firefox does nothing.
Does the new window have a media player in it or use the Flash plugin for any other purposes? If so, it could be the protected mode bug described in this thread: [https://support.mozilla.org/questions/955659 Opening New Windows and Shockwave Flash]. There are some workarounds listed there.
Let us know whether that helps. -

Several times now Firefox 4.0.1, when clicking on a tab (three or more tabs open) I immediately moves that tab to it's own window and closes the tab in the existing window.
That is probably the "tear-off tabs" feature. A slight movement (usually downward) when clicking on an existing tab will cause that tab to "tear-off" and open in a new window. You can drag the tab back to the previous window. You can also install this add-on to stop the behavior: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/

Why does Firefox sometimes open a new window when I navigate to an existing tab?
I often have 7 or 8 tabs open in Firefox. Sometimes when I click on a tab, Firefox opens it in a new window instead of just going to that tab. I haven't figured out a pattern when it does this.
A very slight movement (usually downward) will cause the tab to "tear off"/"tear away" into a new window. You can drag the tab back to the original window from the new window.
You can install this Add-on to stop the "tear off"/"tear away" behavior:

Firefox Opening new windows reverts to original Window
Just started with this problem, when I open a new window which is my preference rather than Tabs I find that whereas it used to open the new window and that was active, it is now opening a new window and then reverting to the original one.
Any ideas?I have the same issue. When opening a new window and opening either gmail.com or facebook.com, the original window gets focus once the website is finished loading.
This is not an add-on issue, as it also occurs when running in safe mode.
After also disabling all plug-ins, I noticed the problem was gone. I have found the problematic plug-in after re-enabling the plugins one-by-one. The problem is '''Shockwave Flash'''.
My plug-in was out-of-date, so I installed the most recent version (11.4.402.287) but the problem still occurs. '''The only solution is to disable the plug-in altogether.'''
''P.S. Possibly the problem only occurs on some systems. I am running Windows 7 Enterprise N, x64, and on an SSD.'' -
