SRM iViews open in New Window instead of Portal Content Area

Hi folks,
We are implementing SRM 7.0 business package on our Enterprise Portal 7. By default, all the SRM iViews open in a New Window. But, when I change the iViews to open in the Content Area, only the first iView that I try to open will open in the Content Area. All the remaining ones start opening in a new window with header. When reached out to SAP, they told me to disable the Work Proctect Mode. I tried that as well and still no luck. Please let me know if you guys have any idea how to make all the iViews open in the Content Area invariably. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Universal Worklist items open in new window instead of existing frame

After our recent upgrade we noticed that workitems in Universal Worklist open in new window instead of existing frame. Do you know if there is a system or universal setting to make all the workitems open in existing frame? I know we can change the settings for parameters launchInNewWindow and openInNewWindow to "no" in XML files to fix this. However, my concern is that I would need to do this for each and every task we use. (still doable but wondering if there is simpler solution)
Example:
 <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS12300097.SAP_R3_CUSTOM_DEV" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchWebDynPro" executionMode="default">
 <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_R3_CUSTOM_DEV" externalType="TS12300097" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
 <Actions>
 <Action name="launchWebDynPro" groupAction="" handler="SAPWebDynproLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
 <Properties>
 <Property name="WebDynproApplication" value="LeaveRequestApprover"/>
 <Property name="WebDynproDeployableObject" value="sap.com/ess~lea"/>
 <Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
 <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
 <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
 </Properties>
 <Descriptions default=""/>
 </Action>
 </Actions>
 </ItemType>

We downloaded uwl.standard.xml from UWL admin. Made a copy and renamed file. Changed all "launchInNewWindow" from "yes" to "no". Uploaded new file in UWL admin. Re-registered systems, cleared cache. Not sure what exact line changed the behavior but the workitems no longer open in new window.
We are still experimenting with file in our sandbox environment.

Home button opens a new window instead of just returning active tab to home

Running firefox 9.0.1 on Snow Leopard. After browsing for a short time clicking on the home button opens a new window instead of just returning theactive tab to home

Event triggered by iView Opening in New Window

Hi Portal Developers,
I'm trying to write an iView will exist as an invisible iView on the default framework page and listen for the event of an iView opening a new window. However, I can't find an event that distinguishes between an iView opening in a new window or an iView opening in the existing content area.
For example, as a test to capture the event that is occurring, I have the following block of javascript that displays a message when a user navigates around in the Portal using some different Portal events.
<script language ="JavaScript">
EPCM.subscribeEvent("urn:com.sapportals:navigation", "*", onNewWindow);
EPCM.subscribeEvent "urn:com.sapportals.portal:browser", "*", onNewWindow);
function onNewWindow( eventObj) {
"Got an Event from: " + eventObj.eventName);}
</script>
All this returns when a I click on an iView that opens in a new window is "Navigate", which is no different from when an iView is clicked that does not open in a new window. I've looked through the SAP-delivered javascript files and I've also done an HTTP Trace hoping to find exactly what is happening when an iView is launched in a new window.
A trace I ran indicates that the js13_spcf.js file is called when an iView is launched in a new window. In this file, I see that there is a "mode" parameter that is passed to the "Navigate" event that I'm subscribing too. For the Open in New Window option, this seems to be set to a value of 2, which makes sense. Is there anyway I can read this "Mode" value of the event that is raised as I subscribe to the event from my iView? Any other suggestions are welcome as well!
Thanks!
Matt

Hi Matt,
For an iView opening in a new window to communicate with an iView on the default framework, a "bridge" needs to exist.
That's where EPCMPROXY from epcfproxy.js comes into play.
In the iView that is opening up in a new window, you can raise an event such as,
var win_id = EPCMPROXY.getUniqueWindowId();
EPCMPROXY.raiseEvent("urn:com.sapportals.portal:browser", "", "", win_id);
Hope it helps,

If i open a new window instead of a new tab, in the new window does not appear the menu tab

i want to open new windows instead of tabs and in the new window should appear the menu tab and scrolling up and down, but now with the new version the menu tab does not appear and i cannot scroll up and down.

Do you mean opening a window via the File menu (File > New Window) or do you always want to open links that you click on web pages in a new window?

URL iview opening in new window problem

Hi All,
I am using customized top level navigation (developed using byEPCM method).
I created URL iview and pointed "http://www.google.com" . (Launch in New Window = Displaly in sepearte window) .I have assigned this iview to a role as delta link. When naigating this iview, it is opening in new window. But it is showing "Permission Denied script error". And also, it is not displaying url as "http://www.google.com" .
If I navigate via standard top level navigation, it is working fine. Please help to solve this problem.
Thanks,
Venkatesh R

Hi,
Check authentication related properties of iView. Make sure all of them are set to lowest level or none

Links open in new windows instead of tabs.

When browsing the internet, if I'm using a browsing session from a previous day, when I select to open a new link as a new tab, it will open in a new window instead.
In my case, I put my work computer to sleep yesterday evening and started using it again this morning. Now all my links try to open in a new window even if I specifically choose to "Open Link in New Tab".
This is extremely annoying.

Transactional Iviews opening in new window

Hi All,
The transactional iviews are opening in new window.
I see that it happens only in QA but not in development.
Can anyone help me on this?
Many users are getting issue but I am not sure weather all are getting this.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Nuzhat.
Check in User profile if User Accessibility Feature is activated or not.
Refer to Note 825464 (search for "Full Section 508 support for Transaction iViews") and Re: Transaction iView opening in a new pop-up window.

GetURL opening in new window instead of frame

Using Flash for a website for the first (always been just a
backend php, asp, java programmer) and having the most frustrating
time with what should be the simplest thing. I have a button that
on the mouse down is supposed to load a link into another frame,
but instead it opens a new window with the link. In the html file I
have an iframe defined with the proper name, that matches the name
placed in the actionscript. What am I missing?
Here is the HTML Code:
<iframe src="home.html" width="766" name="mainFrame"
frameborder="0"><iframe>
Here is the Actionscript Code:
on (release) {
getURL("new.html", "mainFrame");
Thanks a lot for your help!

I can help you there:
on(release) {
getURL("new.html","iframe","GET");
Although if you have a name for your frame, it MIGHT be:
on(release) {
getURL("new.html","mainFrame","GET");
Although personally I'd just keep with using a regular iframe
without a name.

JSP Dynpage iView 'Open in New Window' losses session data

Hi All,
I have a JSP Dynpage that displays some position holder information based on a position id passed in by the URL query string. The problem that I am trying to solve is to allow the user to open the iView in its own window by using the 'Open in New Window' option from the button in the upper right of the iView title bar. When this happens the URL query string is no longer available so the iView has problems. My solution is to store the position id in the session object then read from that session object when the query string is not available - when opening in a new window.
But what is happening is that the position id saved in the session object is no longer there when the new window opens. I have looked else where on this site but all posts seem to deal with data transfer from JSP Dynpage to the JSP page. This issue is dealing with a page getting re-opened in a new page (browswer).
I can't seem to get the session object to work between JSP Dynpages at all, I would think that the data put into the session would stay there untill either cleared or the session ends. Am I missing some configuration settings? I have included some of the key code below.
// GET THE POSITION ID FROM THE URL QUERY STRING
String PosId;
PosId = request.getParameter("CKey");
if (PosId == null)
 myBean.testing = (String) request.getComponentSession().getValue("PosId");
else
 PosId = PosId.substring(6, 14);
 request.getComponentSession().putValue("PosId", PosId);
 myBean.testing = "POSID:" + PosId;
Thanks for all ideas and help.

When I click on an email link it opens in the email window instead of opening a new window, how to get it to open a new window instead

It's Comcast email, most links are to articles from the Wall Street Journal. Lately an email from Charles Schwab broker with a link to a pdf file has been doing the same. When I click on the link, it opens within the email frame, which is about 1/3 filled up with the toolbar, mailboxes, headings etc. If it opens with 2 bars on the right side to move down, I can see the whole article, but often it opens with only one bar on the right side which will not let me get all the way to the end of the page.
It's been happening for several weeks. I got a new computer and it's still happening. Comcast sounds like they've never heard of it. Most recently happened today. I tried the same email link with IE and it opened a new window.

Firefox sent an email to me to confirm that I had asked the above question. The email had a link to click. When I clicked it from Firefox, nothing happened. Then I opened IE, signed into Comcast, opened the email, clicked the link, and it brought me here.

Links opening in new window instead of new tab

I'm running Safari Windows 4.0.4. I would like to use multiple tabs within one browser window. However, while in one tab, if I click on a link, it opens a new Safari window. I want it to open another tab. I have the "open links from applications" set to open in new tab, however, I can't find a setting for opening a new tab within sarafi itself. I hate that it opens a new window. Anyone point me in the right direction so that it opens a new tab in the same window?

Is there a way, then, that the Safari team could add an option to the General tab that would default the click-on-link behavior to be the same as CTRL-click? I'm certain that adding such a feature would be insanely easy?
Great browser Apple ... really like it; but could you please fix this in a service-pack soon?
Thanks!

URL iView - Open in new window - User Action Independent

Hello Experts,
What has been configured:
I have built an I URL iview and set its paramater to open in a new window. I have assigned the iview to a role. I have also assigned a quicklink to the iview
Name: xyz
quick link: xyz
quick link url: https://<domain>/irj/portal/xyz
What has been tested:
When I log in to the portal using the test user ID and click (user action) on xyz the destination URL pops up in a new window as expected.
When I access the iview via the quick link it loads the destination URL in the same portal window (no pop up)
What do I need:
We will be using the quick link to get to SAP portal from another legacy portal and I want to hit the target URL as soon as I access the quick link without being taken to the portal page in which the target URL content is rendered. I also do not want to have the user click on the/a link to navigate to the target URL.
Things as they stand:
The destination URL is hitting a standalone WD ABAP object which is not hosted in SAP portal content. The SAP portal has to be used because the logon ticket issued by the portal is also used to login to the server hosting the WD ABAP.
Please let me know if you think this is something that can be achieved.
Many thanks,
Prashanth

Hi,
2. It is not possible to hide it completely or disable it. Give this a try:
Create a Static HTML page and create a link in that which will take you to quick link page/iview.
or you can create a custom application which will call the application underlying the quicklink on click of a link.
3. For removing the History, Back and Forwards links in Page Title Bar, follow the below:
In Portal navigate to Content Administration - Portal Content - Content Provided by SAP - End User Content - Standard Portal Users - Open the Default Framework Page
With the Framework Page - you will find Page Title Bar iView - Open the iview and go to iView Property
Show Back/Forward Links and Show History List by default this setting is set to Yes. change teh setting to No and you will not be seeing those in the page title bar.
NOTE: If you make this change it is applicable to all other pages and iViews. So be cautious before making the change.
Hope this helps.
cheers-
Pramod

When i click a link on any web page mozilla opens a new window instead of opening the link on the opened window?

when clicking on any link on any webpage a new window opens.
Eg. On the bbc home page if you click "news" a new window opens instead of going to the news page of the web.
