Top navigation menu items should open in new tab

In a share point 2013 site, i have created top navigation using term set from managed meta data. some of the menu items navigate the user with in the site whereas some other menu items will navigate to the external sites. My requirement is I want to open
external links in new tab and internal links in same tab itself.
Please advise.
Regards,
Chaitanya.

Assuming that internal URL are relative and external urls are absolute, you can use a jQuery script to add target="_blank" attribute to the links.

A top level menu item should display its active state if any of its submenu items are active

Example case: I'm designing a Muse site which is basically a portfolio of our work. We design books, doing page layout and covers. We have numerous book categories and sub categories which I put in a horizontal menu. When a given top level category menu item doesn't have a submenu, it is a hyperlink and it displays active state when the browser displays its linked page. But when a given page is displayed from a submenu link, its top level menu item does NOT display active state. I think it should.
For example, we have a "Nostalgia" category which has "Film" and "TV" subcategories. Because the menu item, "Nostalgia" has a submenu containing "Film" and "TV", the label "Nostalgia" is not a hyperlink. The submenu attached to it has the two hyperlinked items "Film" and "TV". When the browser is displaying either linked page, the submenu is hidden. So it would be nice if the top level item, "Nostalgia" would display in an active state.

Context menu hotkey to open in new tab is different for links (T) & bookmarks (W); using T for bookmark deletes bookmark!--why?

When I want to open a link in a new tab, I right-click and press T. I ''think'' that the same key used to work for opening bookmarks in new tabs, also. At least I developed a reflex that always chose T for a new tab, whatever I was right-clicking on. Then a while ago, probably after one of the updates I automatically install (some time in version 3.x), I started noticing something different and extremely frustrating: not only is the hotkey for opening bookmarks in new tabs now different (W instead of T), which is just poor design--but to add injury to insult, when my still-stubborn reflexes pressed T, the bookmark was ''deleted''. Gone. I have thousands of bookmarks, and I make them so I don't have to remember things. If one is lost, there may be no finding the page again.
EDITED:
Having posted this problem, I just realized that I've answered the why-it-happens part of the question. We're left with the why-was-it-allowed-to happen, but that's unimportant if we can put an end to the confusing behavior.
T in the bookmark panel and menus is Cut, which is standard in all kinds of software, and that my lost bookmarks could be restored IF I remembered to paste them again immediately. (I swear I checked it out just before originally posting, and Cut didn't appear, though Copy did. Maybe I was hallucinating.) Anyway, knowing this will help with the long-term problem, but it's still a bad idea to have two different hotkeys for the same operation. Hence what needs to change is using T as the hotkey in the links context menu.
Here's my proposal: Change the hotkeys for "Open in new window" and "Open in new tab" in both the right-click menu for links and the right-click menu for bookmarks. Right now we have:
Links
* Open Link in New Tab (T)
* Open Link in New Window (W)
Bookmarks
* Open Link in New Tab (W)
* Open Link in New Window (N)
N0te that the bookmarks menu is mnemonically backwards; Window should be W. Both menus should be:
* Open Link in New Tab (N)
* Open Link in New Window (W)
Can someone take care of this in an update, please?

This also drives me nuts, I work in research online and use firefox as its tabbed browing is so good, and I ofetn have to open lots of links in rapid succession from web-pages - obviously I use right click T as the fasterst method of doing this, and I use it so ofetn that it is now a reflex.
But, whenever I try to open a bookmark from my toolbar (much less often) I tend to deletye it, and if I am lucky enough to notice before I do anything else I have to go through a laborious process to undo the delete...
Interesting to read the reason above, but I would suggest that this is something that needs to be standardised across all of a browser's context menus, otherwise browsing becomes jarring.
I am all in favour of 'T' opening in a new tab from all context menus, but if this is not do-able I think you should consider picking a different letter. The N & W proposal above is good.
Thanks!

Why does ctrl+Left click a link open a new window? It should open a new tab in the current window.

When I try to Ctrl+Left click to open a link in a new tab, it will open it in a new window instead. Then while in the new window if I Ctrl+Left click a link it will open a new tab in the second window. If I then go back to the first Firefox window and Ctrl+Left click a link the second firefox window will pop up and the new tab will be created there. Why won't the Ctrl+Left click work when only one window is open?

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Every link opens a new window even when this should open a new tab

Lately, whenever I click on a link a new window opens (11 happenings of firefox just to get to this page). In options I have selected open new tab instead of new window. Deselecting or reselecting does not change this. Restarting firefox did not help either. Also for some reason if I click the dot button on the keyboard, I get the greater than sign.

This issue can be caused by an extension or plugin that isn't working properly.
Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

Why does form validation take effect when navigating menu items?

I am using JDev 10.1.3.3.
I have a data entry form where all the af:inputField's are set to Required=true. I expected that the mandatory fields should only be enforced if I click the form 's submit button.
However, when I navigate to another menu item from my menu bar without filling in the fields, the mandatory fields also get enforced (e.g. Required Messages on fields appear and I am forced to have to enter some data on the field before I am able to navigate to another menu item. ) Navigating menu items should imply I am not proceeding with the data entry and should allow me to navigate instantly, even if there are blank fields.
I notice the SRDemo also had this same behavior. Under "New Service Request", if you don't fill in a description and navigate to another menu item from the menu bar, it will complain and ask you to enter a problem description before switching tabs.
This is obviosly not the intended behavior. How do I change this behavior so that when I switch menu items, data validation will not take place?

Hi
it happens cause the entire page is one form when you try to navigate out what it does is that it submits the form.
To avoid validation for particular links or buttons set their property immediate to "true"
hope this helps

Why not Restore Ctrl-Leftclick Link to Open in New Tab?

Between versions 22 and 24, ctrl-leftclick went away as a keyboard accelerator to open a link in a new tab.
Now there are two ways: rightclick the link and pick a munu item to open in new tab, or middleclick the link.
Rightclick and choose menu item is more difficult, as it requires actually looking at and reading the menu.
Middleclick is not as easy or reliable for most people today since the middle mouse button is usually a wheel and difficult to click with any precision.
I can see no reason why you shouldn't restore Ctrl-Leftclick to open a link in a new tab and lots of reasons why you should. Will you please do so?

Yes, this is caused by their click tracking script. When you hover over a link, it looks normal, but:
<a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57607188/no-deal-yet-government-shutdown-debt-limit-talks-continue/" '''onclick="return lc_trackclick(event,'9848', 'No+Deal+Yet%3A+Talks+Continue');"'''>No Deal Yet: Talks Continue</a>
We've seen another site with this issue in the past, but it only affected a few links at the bottom of the page so it wasn't as annoying.
Besides the two workarounds you're using (right-click, middle-click), you could strip those click trackers. Three possible approaches:
(1) Find an extension that works on that site
(2) Remove the tracking manually using a bookmarklet (a script you save to your Bookmarks Toolbar as a button)
(3) Remove the tracking automatically using a userscript (a script that runs in the Greasemonkey extension or the Scriptish extension)
Since anti-tracking extensions are pretty common now, you might check those. Please note that if they aren't coded carefully, they could stop links on some sites from working correctly.
If you decide you're interested in a more tailored solution, you could request a userscript to be developed on this forum: [http://userscripts.org/forums/2 Ideas and script requests - Userscripts.org]. Please note that the site does NOT check scripts before they are posted, and takes forever to remove bad ones, so protect your personal information by not installing anything that touches Facebook and cast a skeptical eye on reviews.

Why does my Safari homescreen shortcut on my iPad NOT have a url address bar or the ability to open a new tab?

Links not opening as new tabs in Safari window

I have set my Safari preferences so that when I click a link, it should open a new tab in the current window yet it never works. A clicked URL brings up a new window and I'm constantly merging all the windows into one.
Any ideas why this preference might not be holding?
Thanks!

Unless this occurs for every link you click, the problem is due to the fact that some links are coded in the HTML to open in new windows. In Safari, those links will open in a new window no matter what you do. Only links that are coded to open normally (i.e. in the same window) will open in a new tab when Command-clicked. In other words, Safari is just not set up to override how a link is coded, as Firefox and some other browsers are. Safari honors the "new window" HTML.
There is a way to get around this without using third-party software. It requires using Terminal to change Safari's default behavior. It's a very simple change, essentially just toggling a hidden setting to the "on" position, and shouldn't cause any problems as some "hacks" can do.
To do this, simply open Terminal (in the Applications/Utilities folder) and paste the following command:
defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true
And hit the Return key. Quit and relaunch Safari.
If you want to reverse this change, enter the following command in Terminal:
defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool false
And then the Return key.

Is there is any add-on which will make "Show all bookmarks (Ctrl +shift + B)" to be opened in new tab

When we want to open all my bookmarks, and when we click on bookmark icon \ show all book marks (Ctrl + Shift + B), it opens in new window instead it should opened in new tab like add-on manager or download page (with help of Download Manager Tweak Add-on) so basically is there any add-on at present which will induce this functionality in browser or is firefox will take up this as built in property in next version?

How do I re-order popup-menu (open in new tab to the top)

Popup-menu is reordered to have share-option at the top in the new version of android browser.
How do I change the open in new tab-option to be the topmost option?

Hi mtolvane,
Currently in the customize options of Firefox for Android, this is not a feature. I would recommend requesting the feature in a bug.
[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1025326] I filed this bug.

Before every time I use to open a new tab it comes as top site. Now not anymore and instead is an automatically website calle Only Search. I went to Safari preference I change everything and when I quit Safari all the changes are gone.

Every time I used to open a new tab it comes as top site. Now not anymore , instead it open in a website called Only Search, I went to safari preferences and made all changes but after I quit Safari and open again all changes are gone. I can not change anything and new tab comes by it self with other website.

There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed the "Downlite" or "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it.
Back up all data before making any changes.
Besides the files listed in the support article, you may also need to remove this item in the same way:
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, then you may have one of the other kinds of adware covered by the support article. Follow the rest of the instructions in the article.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This malware is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
Install system data files and security updates
if it's not already checked.

Somehow your bookmarks that normally appear on the separate Bookmarks Toolbar (the part on the left) got onto your main Navigation Toolbar. To move them back, return to Customize mode and drag "Bookmarks Toolbar Items" to the Bookmarks Toolbar. Then click Done and hopefully that will stick.

You changed the order of the menu for "Open in a new window" or "Open in new Tab", How can I change it back? Or how can I omit any reference to tabs? I do not use them at all.

I can no longer open a new tab by clicking on it or by using file and new tab menu, so what do I change or reset for new tabs to work?

The tabs were working fine, but now tabs will not open when I click on the 'open a new tab + ' button, or if I go to 'file, new tab'. A new tab only opens when I click a link, but I cannot open a tab at will to start a new page. I used your troubleshooting data, but it did not help. I checked tabs settings in Options and all is checked, and I even reinstalled firefox. What do I do to reset or change settings so the tabs will open?

There is a reported incompatibility between the Ask Toolbar and Firefox 3.6.13 that causes new tabs to not open. This problem needs to be fixed by Ask; they need to update their toolbar add-on for Firefox. Until the incompatibility is fixed by Ask, you can disable the Ask Toolbar or un-install it from your system.
