Window.opener lost after submit on _self of a window

== Issue
==
I have another kind of problem with Firefox
== Description
==
My problem is:
1. main window (*1) opens a child window (*2) and save the reference to this new window in an array
2. the child window (*2) shows a "wait please" image and open on _self the real requested page which can take some time to be created; the new page shows some search fields, the user types the filter and press button for submit; after submit the content of the child window (*2) is the result of a select on DB
3. in the child window (*2) there is a button which opens another child window (*3)
The problem is here: the child window (*2) search the main window (*1) using window.opener but its window.opener is itself.
I need to save the references of all opened windows, so I can close them all when I close the main window (*1)
For an example (more simple) click here:

I'm using "window.open()" to show one Calendar in a popup window. I can see that the popup is re-sizable. How can I prevent the user from re-sizing the popup?

I'm using "window.open()" to show one Calendar in a popup window. I can see that the popup is re-sizable. How can I prevent the user from re-sizing the popup? I have tried "resizable=yes|no|1|0" and that seems to be not working.

You can't prevent users from resizing a pop-up.

Popup a window in the after-submit process

I have created a java script function in html header of the page as following:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
function myPopup (p_search) {
var val1 = document.getElementById(p_search).value;
var url;
url = 'f?p=&APP_ID.:3:&APP_SESSION.::::P3_ENAME:' + val1;
w = open(url,"winLov","Scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=700,height=400");
if (w.opener == null)
w.opener = self;
w.focus();
</script>
I want to call this function in one after-submit process like this:
begin
select name into p_name
from vehicle
where id = 32;
if SQL%ROWCOUNT = 1 then
javascript:myPopup(p_name);
end if;
exception
when others then
null;
end;
When I apply the changes in the application builder, I got this error:
1 error has occurred
ORA-06550: line 7, column 16: PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "" when expecting one of the following: := . ( @ % ; The symbol ":=" was substituted for "" to continue.
How do I call the java script functions in the page process? What did I do wrong?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

O.K. I think I got it working now. See
http://htmldb.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=31517:50
There is an on submit process multiplying the number you enter by two and populating the target item. The process is running only if there is number entered. If you enter any other string a pop-up window will show you an error message. The approach is simple:
1. create a process which does something on submit, if the supplied parameter is O.K. and nulls if not,
2. created a branch to an empty page which fires on submit and it is conditional - using process exception(s),
3. on the empty page there are two onload javascript calls:
onload="javascript:popUp2('f?p=&APP_ID.:201:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.:::', 700, 700);javascript:redirect('f?p=&APP_ID.:50:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::');"
the first one is opening the required pop-up page and the next one is redirecting back to where we started.
I don't know if there are any security issues with this approach. It is not so clean, since you need to create an additional empty page. However, it saves some coding of extra scripts.
What you are saying I also had in mind.

I can't get imovie to open after trying to shift the image to my TV by clicking fn F3. If I hold the mouse on the imovie icon for a few seconds the imovie window opens but if I click anywhere on the window it disappears

I can't get imovie to open after trying to shift the image from my macbook pro to the tv screen like I have done many times before. If I double click on the imovie icon, imovie doesn't open, but the strip across the top shows iMovie, file, edit , clip, view, text share window help tabs across the top. The iMovie window will appear if I click on the iMovie icon on the dock for a few seconds, or if I do control F3 at the same time, but when I click on the window it disappears. When I hover the mouse over the iMovie window that appears the window has a blue border around it. when I move the mouse outside the iMovie window the blue border goes away. If I sweep 4 fingers from the top of the screen down, the screen dims a little but the iMovie window doesn't appear. If I click play under the view tab I can hear audio, but still no iMovie window. It's as if the window is being blocked by the desk top somehow.

I purchased five movies for download and having nothing but problems getting them downloaded. I keep receiving error messages and the download stops and I have to restart it, just to get another minute worth of download with each restart. Now Apple has my money and I have nothing.

Window Focus Lost After Saving Page - Any Way To Get It Back With Keyboard?

I've recently begun using Safari for Windows after having used Opera for years, and have run into a problem with window focus that I didn't have with Opera. Specifically, if you save a web page in Safari, you then find that the following functions are no longer available from the keyboard:
1. Going back to a web page previous to the one that you just saved. Ctrl+[ does not function.
2. Performing a search. Ctrl+F does not function.
3. Scrolling to the bottom or top of the page. Ctrl+End and Ctrl+Home do not function. (For some reason, however, the PageUp and PageDown keys do still work in this situation.)
Why is this, and more importantly, is there a quick and easy way that you can, using only the keyboard, regain the window focus so that these functions will work again? I'm currently having to click somewhere on the page I've just saved in order to regain the focus. This is a nuisance.
Thanks for any advice.

Thanks very much. Hitting 'Alt' button after saving the page does resolve the first (and most important) two of the three issues I listed above. FWIW, the Ctrl+End and Ctrl+Home functions only work in this post-save scenario (as I discovered by experimenting a few minutes ago) if you hit the 'Alt' button twice (or if you do something else, like perform a search and then use Ctrl+End/Home).
By the way, before posting a few days ago, I had tried using the Alt+Tab method when I had two or more applications' windows open, and it didn't help. But, after reading your last post, I've found that if you use Alt+Tab when Safari is the only window open, then it does resolve the issue, although of course, as you've indicated, it's not actually necessary to hit the 'Tab' key.
Thanks again!

FINDER WINDOW OPENS UP AFTER STARTUP !!!!

Hi all i seem to be having a problem that was not happing before I installed the
Latest Mac OS X 10.6.5 (10H574) update. Here is the problem when I startup
The system and log on after the desktop shows up a finder window opens
To the top level in other words it opens my computer showing the drives
Net and devices it never did this before it does this every time now, ok
Now lets talk about what other people have done about this problem
It would seem that some of these solutions worked for some and Did
Not for other in other words it not all the same problem or solution.
1. Delete the finder pref plist did not work!
2. Check user login startup items no there was not any items in there that
Would cause this!
3. I also checked to see if it was a wallpaper problem that did not work!
4. And no I did not have any windows or app’s running when I shutdown
The system.
So I have had no luck with this problem oh here some more info
I have two Mac systems and they are both doing the same thing
Now both have the same os version slash updates
One system is Mac Book Pro the other is a Mac Pro

it shouldn't be blank... it should look something like this:
finderinfo[0]: 164 => Blessed System Folder is /System/Library/CoreServices
finderinfo[1]: 510937 => Blessed System File is /System/Library/CoreServices/boot.efi
finderinfo[2]: 0 => Open-folder linked list empty
finderinfo[3]: 0 => No alternate OS blessed file/folder
finderinfo[4]: 0 => Unused field unset
finderinfo[5]: 164 => OS X blessed folder is /System/Library/CoreServices
note the *finderinfo[2]: 0 => Open-folder linked list empty*
if this is the case for your system (including other mounted volumes) then it must be a separate issue.

Thunderbird cannot open attachment after idle for several hours on Windows Terminal Server 2008 R2 Enterprise

We are using Thunderbird on WTS2008 R1
Cannot open attachment after thunderbird is launched for a short period of time. Tried to save attachment but the attachment saved actually comes with 0kb. Thunderbird works fine after restart itself, not sure if any settings can fix this?

Hi Darrkon,
I suggest checking the status of the HealthMailbox on each of servers.
Also try to re-create the mailbox. You can safely delete and recreate health mailboxes.
Be aware that any local Managed Availability probes that are using the these mailboxes will fail until the Microsoft Exchange Health Manager is restarted. Once that service is restarted, it will recreate any mailboxes that it needs.

ITunes Error 7 (Windows error 127) after installing iTunes 64-bit for Windows

After installing iTunes 64-bit for Windows (latest build), I get an error pop-up saying:
iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes
Error 7 (Windows error 127)
I've gone thru the uninstall, reboot and reinstall process three or four times now. Still nothing.
Furthermore, after clicking okay to the error, it continues to pop up on it's own every 45 seconds or so.
There was one other error I came across after trying to launch iTunes after installation.
See both error messages here:
http://screencast.com/t/DSg4PpKF5BeX

Brilliant. Thanks a lot. I've wasted a couple of hours on this nasty bug, & trying all the other suggestions across various threads again and again.
I now find I had the same registry entry hanging on, despite uninstalling & wiping everything again and again. Having now deleted this key, (I don't even have an iPod), & iTunes 11.1.14 now opens at long last.
But WHY is this bug not fixed? Enough people are suffering with this across the forum. WHERE is Apple support on this?
It should have been added to their page at
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
by now, why hasn't it???
It's not good enough!
Re:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\SharedDlls]
"C:\\Program Files\\iPod\\bin\\iPodService.exe"=dword:80000000
AHA! This entry for iPodService.exe still exhisted. So I had no folders on the PC, no installs on the PC and no services running.... BUT this was still in the Registry.
Step 5 - Delete only the Registry entry above. NO REBOOT
Step 6 - Reinstall iTunes64.exe

WebHelp - With help window open, second application click does not bring help window back into focus

Hello all,
Using RH11 to create context sensitive WebHelp for use with apigee-to-go console.
Console allows URL calls to launch help in a new browser window (named within the help project). Works fine except that the browser help window does not regain focus when subsequent context calls are made from the application.
Steps:
With application running in a browser window, I click a help link. New browser window opens with correct help topic displayed.
Return to application without closing help window. Application window takes focus; help window moves to back.
I click another help link. Help window does not regain focus. However, it DOES move to the correct topic.
I've tried lots of things. Nothing seems to fix this.
For reference, my context call looks like this:
http://<URL>/index.htm#<id=37>>wnd=HelpPopup
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
Jeff Seltzer

Thanks for the responses, but this doesn't really help.
I'm using a simple URL to make the call.
(That's all I can do within the web app API console I'm working with.)
If I knew how to crack open all of the javascript that RH creates (and had that much time to work on it), I'd try to address it.
I have to give up for now.
I've just appended >>newwnd=false to the end of my calls, so the help appears in another browser tab, rather than its own window.
This isn't great, since each call opens a new tab, but that's better than the help window disappearing behind the sea of open windows most of us have going on, only to cause the user to hunt for it (if they even know it's there).
So, <URL>/index.htm#<id=37>>wnd=HelpPopup
becomes <URL>/index.htm#<id=37>>wnd=HelpPopup>>newwnd=false
Thanks all for your pointers.
If I ever find the time to really work on this issue, I'll post a fix (if there is one).
(Again, I suspect this is just buggy RH javascript. RH knows enough to update the contents of the help/browser window, but not enough to focus it.)
Best,
Jeff Seltzer

Attachments added to the Interactive form is lost after submit

Hi All,
I have a scenario where the user can add attachments to the Interactive Form Online and click on Submit to archive the filled form. The problem is that i am not able to retrieve the attachments added to the form.
The datasource of the ITF is bound to the View Context node and the pdfsource is bound to an attribute of XSTRING type.
Here i am able to see the changed values of the Input fields in my context node. But, any attachments added is lost.
How can i retrieve the attachments? I tries calling the Methods SET_TASK_GETATTACHMENTS and GET_ATTACHMENTS of PDF Objects but it always returns null.
FYI,
if i use file upload UI Element and upload an existing form with attachments then i am able to get the list of attachments by calling the Methods SET_TASK_GETATTACHMENTS and GET_ATTACHMENTS of PDF Objects before this PDF is displayed in the next view. (binding the XSTRING of FIle Upload UI to the PDFSOURCE of the ITF).
Here also if i add some new attachments to the PDF and click on submit then these new docs are lost.
In short whenever i add attachments to the pdf dynamically via add attachment option after the PDF is displayed the new attachments are lost.
Please let me know how to correct this.
Thanks,
Abhishek

There is a default functionality provided by Adobe... If all your fields are field, you can not submit. It will prompt .. to fill the form.
Only you have to mark those field as mandatory.
So select the field -> Go to Object Pallet -> Value Tab -> select the type as User entered Required
This will solve your problem.
You can also customise the requirements through scripting language.
cheers

Safari Minimized Windows Get Lost After Restart

If I have any minimized windows when I quit Safari, I can't make them visible after I re-launch Safari without some extra trickery.
They are shown in the Window menu, with the "◆" bullet prepended, but when I select one of them, the bullet is replaced by a ckeck mark, and the frontmost window loses focus, but the minimized window isn't shown. It's as if the window is fronmost but not visible, as if it were positioned outside of the viewing area.
If I then select View > Enter Full Screen, the window becomes visible and remains so after I exit full screen mode.
Has anyone else seen this behavior? It's obviously a bug of some sort, but I wanted to see if anyone else has experienced it bufore I report it. I have a hunch that it might be limited to Safari 7 and Mavericks running on older hardware. I'm currently using Safari 7.0.4 in OS X Mavericks (10.9.3), but I have noticed this ever since upgrading to Mavericks. I'm not sure exactly how old my MacBook Pro is, but it's old.

Is this system in domain ?
The new group policy is named “Force
a specific default lock screen image” and can be found in this path in the group policy editor: “Computer Configuration\Policies\Administrative
Templates\Control Panel\Personalization”
Is this configured?

Keyboard Viewer window opens up after waking from sleep and screensaver

I have the MacBook keyboard freezing problem since upgrading to Leopard. One time (at band camp), I opened the Keyboard viewer so I could enter some text prior to rebooting. Now, the keyboard viewer pops up after every wake from sleep, return from screensaver (both password protected), and sporadically when switching/quitting applications.
I have tried rechecking and unchecking the "keyboard viewer" and "show input menu in menu bar" in System Preferences->International->Input Menu. While not a serious problem, it is rather annoying. How do I get the keyboard viewer to stop opening?
On a related note, there must be a script or program that is run every time the computer wakes from sleep and password protected screensaver that prompts for a password. Anyone know where this is located?
Peter

Ok, I just tried that. I deleted com.apple.KeyboardViewerServer.plist. I then started my screensaver. When I came back in...the Keyboard Viewer was back and there was a new plist file that was created...so, something else must be controlling it.

The firefox window opens with no icons visible, just a black window

Hi,
When I open the firefox browser the window doesn't show me any icons, it's literally a black window.
If I hover over where File or Edit buttons would be I can see a sort of shadow of the options menu that would usually appear, however there are literally no buttons or names visible. I've done the obvious; uninstalled and re-installed, restarted the computer etc.
Please help.
Thanks
Dan

hi dan, this happened with the firefox 33 update, which contains a new technology which will make the browser become more responsive relying on your graphics hardware: http://benoitgirard.wordpress.com/2012/05/15/off-main-thread-compositing-omtc-and-why-it-matters/
however with certain graphic cards & old drivers it unfortunately appears to be buggy and lead to the black screen you've observed.
sorry for the troubles this has caused...

DfMagicStage.nib window opens after upgrading to iLife 08

After upgrading from iLife 06 to iLife 08, every time I boot my Mac Pro a window opens named DfMagicStage.nib. This DfMagicStage.nib window contains the following four files: classes.nib, data.dependency, info.nib, keyedobjects.nib.
I opened up these files in TextEdit and the one thing they appear to have in common is Garage Band references.
Does anyone know what is causing this to happen? I have searched Apple's Support site and these discussion forums, and Google, but have not had any luck figuring this out.

Thanks WH! That worked like a charm. It had been bugging me ever since iLife 08 was released.
You're welcome. Glad to help. That was definitely anomalous/weird for that to happen. So far, I haven't heard of anyone else that has had that happen to them.
Anyway, glad you got it cleared up.
