HTML - Opening An Office Document Straight From Ie

I have a link on my website that opens up a new window, and that new window opens up and is resized to be smaller at 400X300. It works just fine on Internet Explorer and Safari, but when it's in Firefox the new window opens up on a separate tab in the same browser window and causes the whole window to resize to 400X300. Is there a way to fix this? Like is there a better coding to make sure Firefox will open this link in a new window for sure, and not just a separate tab? I'm using the coding target="_blank" right now.....

Hello - I am a newbie to the forum needing assistance with some HTML coding.

I am trying to create a page which has a number of small images acting as buttons. When an image is clicked, a new window is opened which displays that image in full size. I would like this page to contain a "Close Page" button which closes this page. Also, is there HTML code which prevents users from downloading images that appear in this new window?

Addition: I have found javascript code which closes a browser window:

<a href="javascript:window.close()">
<img border="0" src="closingwindows.gif" width="95" height="46">
</a>

but where do you put this code, given that the new page to display the full size image is created from the page that contains the thumbnail of that image?

Any help appreciated!

Hey guys

I got this: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdWkKKSckNk target="_blank"<font size="3" face="arial" color="black">Sony Video</font></a>

But its not opening in a new tab, and all the forums and posts about it are 4 years old and say that it's impossible.

So what is the code to open a hyperlink in a new tab?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

I need some help with showing a pop-up in an application.
This is a part of the HTML:
HTML Code:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>

      <Legendgroup>
        <Name>AERO</Name>
        <DisplayName>Aerorama's</DisplayName>
        <ShowInLegend>true</ShowInLegend>
        <DefaultVisibility>true</DefaultVisibility>
   
        <Legendentries>

        <Legendentry>
            <Name>AERO11</Name>
            <DisplayName>Aerorama's 2011</DisplayName>
            <MinScale>0</MinScale>
            <MaxScale>2501</MaxScale>
            <ConnectionName>Spatial</ConnectionName>
            <TableName>AERORAMA</TableName>
            <WhereClause>Where EXPIRED is null</WhereClause>
            <Tooltip>Toon Aerorama: &lt;%.RECORDINGDATE%&gt;</Tooltip>
   ------------------------------------------------------------------     
            <ShowInLegend>true</ShowInLegend>
            <DefaultVisibility>true</DefaultVisibility>
            <IsRaster>false</IsRaster>
            <DisplaySymbology>
              <Color>RGB(0,165,0)</Color>
              <Font>WebDings</Font>
              <FontChar><![CDATA[&micro;]]></FontChar>
              <TextSize>10</TextSize>
            </DisplaySymbology>
            <HotspotSymbology>
              <Color>RGB(231,99,231)</Color>
              <Weight>3</Weight>
            </HotspotSymbology>
          </Legendentry> 
          
        </Legendentries>
      </Legendgroup>

I can select the symbol and want to open a new window (pop-up). In the table AERORAMA there is a column named PATH and contains this kind of info:

\\st001b\Data\GIS Fotos\Fotos\Aerorama\zuid\BopZ_0004.html

It's a path on some internal storage drive.
I want the file above to be openend in the new window.

How can i alter the HTML code above to make this happen?

I thank you already!

Can someone post the code I would use to have a hyperlink on our webpage that would give visitors the option to view or download a pdf?

Thanks!

I'm sure this is probably one of the dumbest questions to appear here, but how would I get a link to a file to open that file in its native program - i.e. a .doc into Word or a .xls with Excel rather than in an IE plugin?

Problem is, of course, whilst the IE plugins work, they don't have full functionality.

I read somewhere that you could change the default settings in Windows, but part of what I'm trying to set up is on a business computer and of course, things like file associations and registry are tied down pretty tight so they can't be accessed, so I need to do it from within a page of links.

Many thanks (in hope)

I created a page with a chromeless window. Clicking on 'enter' on the index page will open the homepage in a chromeless window. However, whenever you click enter on the index page, the index page itself is also loading the homepage. (so it's double, one on the index page and one in a chromeless window).

How can I get it to stop, so that it only loads a chromeless window and the index page stays the same?

I used the chromeless window codes from the following page:

Generally when you click a link to e. g. JPEG image, it is open in browser window. When you click a link to a ZIP file, it is downloaded.

Is there a possibility to force a browser downloading e. g. a JPEG image?

Hi,

Newby here - trying to make some link changes to an existing site and it has gone south for me.

I have updated some java based links and it has blown up on me. They are trying to open as a file, rather than staying as a link.

website address is dub, dub, dub nufinish dot ca.

Small site, but trying to update it so that links operate properly.

Thanks!

Hendy

I'm a rookie so don't be too rough on the mistakes I made in the webby im about to post, but here's my prob

http://mythgaming.gethost.nl

I got 1 Iframe in the main page, which loads every link I click from the menu

Now at the link MEMBERS, if I click it you get a Click here url, this contains a javascript that reopens a menu with a close button and normally an image in it

My idea was to open a certain page in that "javascript application" but the problem is when I click "click here" it does open, but in the iframe itself, setting a target _blank doesn't work either as it'll stay in the Iframe

So first problem would be, how can I get that javascript to be opened OUTSIDE the frame.. and with that how could I load a page in it

As you can see the url above "furian.php" is supposed to load inside the window that pops up if you click Click here.. that's not working, and also the window doesn't pop out from the Iframe but stays in there

The actual code is taken from the http://mythgaming.gethost.nl/training/ page.. as you open a Photo there you'll see the normal "image popup" window


I hope any of you have a suggestion how to fix this, and yea correct me on dumb mistakes i know I made many

Hi. I am wondering if there is any way of opening/closing an object in HTML or CSS or Javascript?

For example, I have a Chat Box that is floating on the bottom left of the screen, I want to be able to close it if I don't want to see it, and if i want to open it up again, I would do so.

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Chris
