Want to open link in new browser

hi
can anyone tell me how to set a link so that when someone
clicks on it the website it is linked to opens in a new browser. I
could not find the place in dreamweaver to tell it to do that.
thanks

The other alternative is to add a target="_blank" attribute
to the link
tag, but that's deprecated. It should also be noted that many
modern
browsers open new windows in new tabs, not new windows, and
you have no
control over that.

ADF RichTextEditor opening links in new browser - how to do it?

Hi, If I add a link in ADF RichTextEditor, how do I make it open in a new browser window when clicked on it? Essentially, I want RichTextEditor to insert "target=_blank" attribute in the achor element rendered.
Of course, I can ask the user to go to source mode and do it themselves, however, I was hoping that in the WYSIWYG mode, RichTextEditor would give me the options for specifying the target.
Is this possible?
BTW, I dont want to process the value of the RichTextEditor at the backend and insert the target programmatically.
Thanks.

The question is: how do I detect if the clientaborts
the downloading by pressing the stop button on theweb
browser?Short answere: You dont.It doesn't terminate the socket? How/when does the socket get closed on the client side then?

Open links in new browser window

We are using Oracle WCI 10.3/Collaboration 10.3 and have a Community Links Portlet (collab portlet) setup. The links open up in the same browser window and to get back to the portal, the user has to hit the back button on the browser. So,
1) Is there a portal/collaboration configuration that enables links to open up in a new browser window?
2) Is there a way to hide the address bar when the link opens up in a new window? (the reason for this question is, we may have a link to some applications where we don't want the user going in directly. So, by hiding the address bar, they can't copy the URL and access directly without going in through the portal).
If there is any better way to do question 2 above, would appreciate the feedback.
Thanks.

I was able to figure this out:
1) In the My Account section, under display preferences, there is an option to "open documents in same window" or "new window". By changing this, links in the Community Links portlet open up in a new browser window.
2) With a simple javascript example that I found on the internet, I was able to customize the popup browser window with no address bar or menu buttons.

Open link in new browser window

I know how to enter the links in the assets page so when I
export to dreamweaver the links already in the html. Is it possible
to enter a link URL and have it open in a new window? I know that
you can use the popup feature but is there any other way?
Thanks

I used the Behaviors tab to do this (see: www.adobe.com/support/dreamweaver/interactivity/behavior/behavior04.html).
The page I was starting from is http://www.wqma.com/schedule.html. I wanted to click on a link and have it open a new window with a .pdf of our schedule.
When I strictly followed the instructions in the above Adobe link, I ended up having a new window open with the link I wanted. In addition, however, the old window *also* opened to the new page. Then I tried deleting the address within the '<a href=...>' parentheses. (I assumed that's what Linda meant by leaving it blank.) But when I did this, the initial page jumped back to my home page. So instead, within the '<a href=...>' parentheses, I entered the address for the page I was starting from (<a href="http://www.wqma.com/schedule.html">). This made the first window "stay" on the page I was starting from, and also opened another window with the page I wanted.

Discoverer Viewer Open Link in New Browser Window

We have created cubes with links to details (using Manage Links).
When selecting the link from Discoverer Plus OLAP, a new browser window opens.
When selecting the link from Discoverer Viewer, it opens within the same browser window.
How can we force Discoverer Viewer to open a link in a new browser window?
We tried adding the TARGET="_blank" to the link but that only gets added to the last parameter (or passed as a parameter).
Unlike Discoverer Plus parameter, there is no _popup option.

This article by Ted Padova will give you the JavaScript code that will accomplish this: http://acrobatusers.com/blogs/tedpadova/opening-pdfs-new-browser-windows

New IE 10 always wants to open "Meet your new Browser? How can I stop it?

On a Win 7 64 bit PC I just installed IE 10. Now every time I open IE it opens msn.com AND "Meet your new Browser" in two windows. Checking Internet Options, home page ONLY lists msn.
How can I stop "Meet your new Browser"?

For those who DON'T have Prevent performance of First Run Customize Settings in Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc), here's another method to disable the "Meet your new browser" website.
If you Group Policy Editor open then just close it, also close Internet Explorer if you have it open and go to
Start and where it says "Search Programs and Files" type regedit and hit enter. Registry Editor should open up and from there navigate to
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main.
NOTE: Some of you might not find Internet Explorer and/or Main folder at all, if you don't find one, then create one by right clicking on Microsoft
go to New, click on Key, Name the folder
Internet Explorer then right click on Internet Explorer
go to New, click on Key Name the folder
Main.
Now on the right side of Registry Editor right click,
go to New, click on DWORD (32-bit) Value and Name it
DisableFirstRunCustomize and then click on it again and set
Value Data to 1 and click
ok and close Registry Editor.
Unfortunately, as usual, this does nothing to solve the problem. Do you suggest switching to Linux or a Mac?

Can I have links open in a new browser window?

Is it possible to have links to pages outside of my website to open in a new browser window?
I've created a podcast for my students to listen to.
I've also created a kind of fill-in-the-blank activity to go along with that podcast, but that activity requires a different window.
I want my students to listen to the podcast and do the fill-in at the same time.
So, I'd like for the students to open the link to the fill-in and then click on the podcast on the original page.
Advice?

changing podcast links is a bit difficult - but here is a general link of how to open windows in a new window:

I want to eliminate or control popup windows that have no relevance and start with "open link in new window" . How do I control or eliminate. It is a nuisance.

When I am searching the web and click on an item, I get a pop up window that contains 6 choices beginning with "open link in new window". Most of the time this a nuisance and I want to get rid of it, but it follows me all over the page and keeps popping up when I click on the same item again. If I don't want to use it, how can I make sure it doesn't reappear?
Also, another question. Firefox keeps asking me to upgrade to Firefox 3.6.19, but when I try, it will download. What gives? I have a Mac Pro with OSX version 10.6.7.
Thanks,

It sounds that you are opening the right-click context menu, maybe by pressing the mouse button for too long.

Where is open links in new tab option as I dont want to right click?

I am using kubuntu 12.04 Fire fox 20. I want to open links in a new tab without right clicking I used to be able to this why can't I now?

Ctrl + Click

Everytime I open a new window to browse, in this new window I would right click to open link in new tab but the new tab always shows up in the other window.

I would click a link which opens a new window. Then in this new window, I would right click to open link in new tab. The new tab does not show up in this new window. It instead shows up in the original browser window. How can I make the new tab show up in the same window?

Firefox did have a behavior where some new windows -- those considered to be dialogs -- could not have new tabs, so new tabs were diverted to the window from which the dialog was opened.
According to the bug tracking system, a fix is in the works:
[https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=644729 644729 – Popup window with all toolbars visible causes new tabs to open in another browser window] referencing [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=485237 485237 – Need to treat popups consistently].
That second ones says Target Milestone: Firefox 12, so the fix probably didn't make it into Firefox 11.
WORKAROUNDS
That first bug says there is an add-on to work around this -- it enables the middle mouse button to open links in a dialog window: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug-586234-unfixer/ Bug 586234 Unfixer :: Add-ons for Firefox]. I haven't tried it myself.
Old forum thread cross-reference: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/824649 When I open a new tab it opens in the wrong window | Firefox Support Forum | Firefox Help]

The right-mouse-click dropdown on links in FF4.00 has swapped the positions of 'open link in new tab' & 'open link in new window'. This is infuriating as I keep opening windows when I want tabs. I want to swap back - how?

Please swap them back!

the user jay_ff shows how to do it using the Menu Editor Add-on
1. Install the Menu Editor add-on from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/menu-editor/ .
2. After the installation, go to Firefox> add-ons (or simply use Ctrl+Shift+A)
3. Go to the Menu Editor "Options"
4. In the "Main context menu," simply grab the "Open link in New Tab" and place it below the "Open Link in New Window"
5. and Voila! You may also change other menu options if you want to!
I tried jay_ff method first and found that indeed changing the Main Context Menu did cause the hotlink context menu to change as well.

When I click on something to open, it gives me a prompt to open link in new window and i want it just to open, how do i do that?

When I am searching the web and i click on a link it prompts me whether i want to open in a new window. I used to click and it would take me right to the place i wanted to be. how do i get that setting again? I have since gone into preferences and told it to automatically open in tabs(?) but I am not sure how this works. Thanks for your help.

Iss it possible that you are "right clicking" on the mouse? Go to System Preferences / Mouse and check the settings there are correct?

Hai i am using firefox 3.6.When right clicking on a link and a window opens up, i want it to ask me "Open Link in New tab" first, not second.

hai i am using firefox 3.6.When right clicking on a link and a window opens up, i want it to ask me "Open Link in New tab" first, not second.

First, you are using a version of Firefox that is very old and outdated. Please update to at least Firefox 3.6.27, or more preferably, update to Firefox 10.0.2. There are lots of bug fixes, security improvements, and much improved performance in Firefox 10.
After you do that, try seeing if you are still having a problem. If you are, is this that when you try to select "Open in a new tab" it opens in a new window instead? Or something else?

Safari wont let me open links in new tabs anymore? Please help!?

On my Macbook, I'm using Safari as my browser.
Everything was fine until this morning; suddenly Safari will not give me the option of opening links from one page in another tab in the same window.
For example, if I'm browsing on EBay and want to open a search result in a new tab of the same window, usually when I would right click on my track pad or magic mouse, it would say "Open link in new tab" or "Open link in new window". However, now when I right click, it just says, "Open link" "Open link in new window" and "Copy link".
I haven't changed any settings or anything on my Macbook whatsoever in the last 3 hours (at least that I'm aware of). Can anyone please tell me how to get this back to normal?
Also, it seems that when I right click anywhere on a page, I only see the options "back" and "reload" whereas before there was "view source" etc.
Please help!

Hi,
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Empty Cache. When you are done with that...
From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 5 buttons and click Reset.
Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
Since you are running Snow Leopard, *make sure Safari is opening in 32-bit mode, not 64*. Right or control click the Safari icon in the Applications folder, then click: Get Info In the Get Info window click the black disclosure triangle next to General so it faces down. Select 32 bit mode. Also, (in that same window) *make sure Safari is NOT running in Rosetta.*
  Web pages now include a small icon or 'favicon' which is visible in the address bar and next to bookmarks. These icons take up disk space and slow Safari down. It is possible to erase the icons from your computer and start fresh. *To delete Safari's icon cache using the Finder, open your user folder, navigate to ~/Library/Safari/ and move this file "webpageIcons.db to the Trash.*
If Safari still won't let you open links in new tabs, go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. If it's a successful launch, then that .plist file needs to be moved to the Trash.
If your forum profile is correct (10.6.1) go to the Apple Menu/Software Updates ...
Very important to keep your system software up to date.
If you install the 10.6.3 update make sure and repair disk permissions.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.
