Use a list item to open a new window with a web address

Hi
I would like to create a list entry which opens a new windows and directs that window to a specific website. I have tried creating the list entry and it works except it is redirecting to the web site in the current window.
at the moment in the list entry options under "Target" I have the following
Target typ: URL
URl: http://www.somewhere.com
Many thanks for your help.

Yes there is. You will need to write your own javascript function using window.open(), which has lots of parameters that control size, scroll bar, menus etc. Do not be tempted to put window.open directly into the URL because it causes problems.
Do a Google on javascript window.open and you should get all the info you need.
Another approach is to do a[b] file > save as in apex and then examine the JS files that are downloaded. You can call any of these javascript functions from apex and a number of them open windows in one form or another.
I can knock something together for you if you struggle.

  • Is there a way to open a new window with one site when the home setting on Firefox has multiple websites?

    While working in Firefox is there a way to open a new window with one site when the home setting on Firefox has multiple websites?

    I guess I'm not explaining myself fully. I have a home page designation in firefox preferences that starts firefox up with 5 sites. that pretty fills up my screen with tabs.
    At some point I want to initiate another WINDOW in firefox (NOT a tab). I would like to be able to open up a window that ONLY has ONE tab, or as if there were only one site designated as the home page. This gives me a workspace that has my most useful sites available in tabs in one window, and also another WINDOW that I can move around in and even create more tabs without messing up my primary set of TABS (in my primary window). I see how this might not be doable without doing what I do now, which is open up a new window, and then close tabs until the new window just has one tab for me to work from.

  • How can I open a new window with the same website like the one I have open?

    In safari I can open a new window with the same website like the one I have open, that makes it easy continuing to navigate on a website and to go back to the original website

    Hello Andieas
    Why open a new window for fast browsing??
    Open new tabs.
    Just right click on what you want to open and click "Open in new Tab"
    It is easy and doesn't consume memory from your computer as well as easy to navigate.

  • FF Less stable than IE. Numerous crashes, the latest quirk is that it will open a new window with a website already working on and NONE of the iterations of FF work. Have to reboot computer because can't even exit FF. Fix it or on to Chrome.

    '''''"a new FF iteration"'''''
    No such thing. All Firefox windows and tabs run in a single '''firefox.exe''' process, unlike IE which has a separate process for each window, or Chrome which opens a new process for each tab.
    As far as the Firefox SafeMode, you can't open it when Firefox is running ''(unless you open a separate Profile purposely)'', if you try all you will get is another window in the "regular mode".
    You're not going to be able to discover the cause of your problem if you're unwilling to follow established troubleshooting procedures, regardless of how intermittent the fault occurs. I wouldn't be surprised of you have an add-on installed which is causing that problem.
    Another course of action would be to create a new Profile, which is like starting from scratch with a completely new Firefox installation. <br />

  • Links that open a new window with javascript:void(null); do not work in 3.1

    I've been noticing that any site I go to that opens content in a new window with "javascript:void(null);" will be ignored by Safari 3.1. The links work in Firefox and used to work in Safari as well. Any suggestions?

    General rule of thumb in the Mac universe...
    When Safari is updated most if not all third party add-ons break. That's because most don't play by the rules. The developer thinks they know how to do it better than Apple so they just do it their way. So the first rule of survival is to KNOW what you have installed on your machine at all times. Use something like textedit to create a document listing all of the third party stuff you have installed and religiously update the list. Second rule is to wait a few days before applying an update. Third rule is to visit your third party developers' sites and make sure their little gadget is compatible with the new Safari update.
    Being aware of things will make life much easier for you in the long run.

    Hope you can fix this or i will start using other browser.

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try some of the following programs to scan for malware:

  • Finder opens a new window with tabs in the last closed window loaded automatically

    As the title says, I've found this happens more than a few times for some change. Maybe every time, I didn't count. Say, I closed a window with 3 tabs opened, then next time when I click finder to open a new window, I will find the 3 tabs loaded in the new window automatically. I am wondering if it is a new feature or bug. If it is not right, would anyone give me some suggestion to correct, if possible? Thanks.

    Yup. I think bring convenience or not is supposed to be the fundamental difference bugs and features.
    Convenience also comes with users' habit. I am sure I will get used to the new way as time goes by.

  • Firefox opens a new window with sites I never visited and don't want, I can not close these tabs or open another tab from them.

    I open a new window and two sites appear, One I had never heard of till now. Digg. I can't open a new tab from these tabs, there is never an x on the tab and close all other tabs does not get rid of them.

    Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.<br />
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.<br />
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database before doing a scan.<br />

  • Open a new window with data in jsp

    Hi,
    I am an absolute beginner.
    I get data from DB in a pipe seperated string
    retval = abc|123|xyz|999
    I need to open a new window and populate the data in it.
    1. How do i open a new window
    2. How do i pass data to the new window
    3. How can i display the formatted data in the new window

    response.sendRedirect("newwindowurl.jsp?arg=" + retval);
    This will direct users to a new window and pass the retval arg to it. On the other window, use request.getAttribute("retval"); to get the value passed in.

  • Open a new window with a servlet

    HI,
    i would like to use an instruction like this one (which is include in a servlet, get method) :
    String temp3 = "<a href=\"../../siteTESTTom/servlet/visualiserOffres?reference=" + toto + "\" class=\"lien\" target=\"_blank\">Visualiser cette offre</a></p>" ;
    out.println(temp3);
    I would like it to open a new html window in which the content would be the result of the servlet entitled visualiserOffres.
    At the presdent, server is opening a new window returning a 404 error.
    How should I proceed?
    Thanks a lot
    Franck

    You need to look on your server log for errors. When you get a 404 error it means that there is a problem within your servlet. The errors typically print out in the server log.

  • Firefox always opens a new window with ad.yieldmanager

    As soon as i click on an image or other views on a website firefox opens a new tab with adyieldmanager and i cant get rid of it.

    hello, this sounds like a problem possibly caused by adware/malware on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • Why does clicking a link open a new window with a spam site on it?

    Happens randomly I will click a link that I want open on new tab it opens but a random site will open in a new window. These sites that open are spam sites that I do not want. I have uninstalled deleted firefox and reinstalled it nothing is fixing this issue. My other computer has the same problem. Does not happen all the time its just random sometime i dont even have to click a link and a new window will open with dating sites poker sites just crap I did not want opened.

    Recomend getting adblock for firefox.
    if you still get unrelated links you should consider scanning for Malware on you computer (this could be an installed program or an extension). I would recommend Malwarebytes as it is somewhat free to use.

  • Open a new window with a sorting zreport when the navigation Link is pushed

    Hi,
    I'm new in CRM and I have not too much idea. I need to create a link into the IC Webclient and when I push it, a new (internet explorer) window should be opened and it should show a sorting Zreport (if it is possible, and ALV Zreport). Please could somebody give me some information about how to proceed?
    Thanks in advance,
    Bemiro.

    Hi.
    If you want to create a new link and when push it a new windows should be opened then you need use Transaction Launcher. If you are talking about ALV and ZReport into an internet explorer windows then you need ITS otherwise you need use BSP or any other HTML solution that SAP offers which also has something like ALV but with web layout.
