JavaScript - Help] Window.open - Firefox/ie Not Working
Hi Guys,
I have written a simple code to open up a new window onclick of a button as follows; Code: function loadExamp() { var reqType = getElementValue("reqType", 1); window.open("../jsp/loadExamples.jsp?reqType=" + reqType, "Connection Test Utility - Message Examples", "width=500,height=300,menubar=no,status=yes, location=yes,toolbar=no,scrollbars=yes" ); return; } The problem is that this code is working on Google Chrome but not in Firefox and IE. Why is that and how can I resolve this issue. I am using Firefox 3.6.11 and IE 8.0.XX. Also I tried to open a new window using <a href> option with the same URL and its working but the only problem is that I want to pass my next JSP an argument which is only possible with function or script. I googled it but couldn't find much information except that there is some security problem. For that I have disabled the 'Pop up Bloker' on both Firefox and IE but still not working. When I click my button there is no activity with 'Firefox' but IE gives me error as follows; Code: Message: Invalid argument. Line: 74 Char: 2 Code: 0 URI: http://localhost:8080/T24Utility/scripts/verifyCxPool.js Please help, Thanks, -- Sjunejo Similar TutorialsHi I wrote following code for the purpose to single right click to open new window, while left click would open another window.

Here is my function for opening the window: Code: function LinkTo(page){ window.open ("http://www.xxx.com , "testpage" ); } Any thoughts? Thanks Hi There, The following piece of code is working fine in IE6 but not in IE 8: if (Windowvar != null) { Windowvar.close(); } Windowvar= window.open(sUrl, 'static', viewerWinOption, true); To explain the functionality: 1. User clicks on one of the links on page 1 2. Clicking takes user from Page 1 to Page 2 (the transaction page). 3. Along with page 2, another page (Page 3) is opened. 4. User saves the transactions in the Page 2 and he is taken back to page 1 5. User clicks other link in Page 1 and activity in point 2 is repeated along with point 3 The issue is, when User clicks on the link AGAIN(for second transaction) in the Page 1 the Page 3 opens in the same browser window in the IE 6 but in IE 8 it opens in the differenct browser window (which shouldnt be happening) Any help will be appreciated. Regards, Sameer. The photo html files on the Fanac Fan History project's website are setup to be displayed properly when JavaScript is disabled and reformatted by a php script when JavaScript is enabled. The reformatting adds some features and positions each photo's caption and credits based on the width of the photo and the browser's page width. This worked well except that, when a photo page was accessed the browser's back button wouldn't work properly. This was because I had failed to include the replace option in my windows.open statement. The statement now reads fileWindow = window.open(fileURL, "_self", "", true); and this has cured the problem with IE but it still doesn't work with FireFox. Oddly enough it worked correctly with Google's Chrome with/without the replace and with Opera and Safari it also sort of worked without the replace. With replace Opera works correctly but Safari stll needs a double click. Any suggestions? window.open() doesn't open an entirely new window in FF3.6, just a new tab suggestions? Edit: Yeah, ok, so if i specify a size smaller than the current standard window, it'll be forced to open a new window. but what if i want a new standard sized window to open entirely? and in any case, i wan t amore direct solution where possible, thanks. Hi Ive found out how to force another browser window to open at a certain size when a link is clicked. Here's the whole line of code including the layer, the javascript and the image, <div id="Layer6" style="position:absolute; width:10px; height:8px; z-index:6; left: 561px; top: 310px"><a href="javascript:;" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('navigation%20instructions.htm','','width=50,height=50')"><img src="images/info.gif" width="15" height="15" border="0"></a></div> How do I adapt this so I can also specify the x&y co-ordinates of the opened window relative to the window that launched it. thanks alot Masten I am using a window.open to trigger a mailto: command. I don't want the window to stay open so I try to close it right after. The default email client launches correctly, but the window stays open and I get the following Javascript error: Unable to get value of the property 'close': object is null or undefined Code: Code: var win = window.open(mailto_link,'emailWindow'); win.close(); I do write some php, but have not much idea about JavaScript. I use window.open to open 10 pages simultaneously. I prefer to open them with a time delay from each other to put less load on the target server. This is my code with no delay. (I played around with setTimeout but can't get it to work.)

If the button clicked a function in the "main.js" file is called. I tried the following, but new window does not see the function in the "main.js" file. function create_new_window() { my_window = window.open ("","mywindow1","status=1,width=350,height=150"); my_window.document.write('<H1>My Window ...</H1>'); my_window.document.write('<form><input type="button" value="Submit" onClick="submitData();"/></form>'); .... } function submitData() { ... } Hi Folks, here is the weirdest problem. I want open a url in the same window, replacing the current page. To test this I have created a simple script. The setup: I have two files in the same folder. abc.html and xyz.html. abc.html contains a button that calls this script: Code: function openWindow() { window.open( "xyz.html" ) ; } And this works fine, just as a test. But I want to open xyz.html in the same window, replacing abc.html . So I try: Code: window.open( "xyz.html" , "_self" ) ; does not work but simply reloads abc.html. I try: Code: window.location.href = "xyz.html"; does not work, but, again, simply reloads abc.html. What gives? The odd thing is, when it reloads the same page, abc.html, the address bar displays this at the end of the address: abc.html?button=Submit Any ideas on what may be going wrong here, or how I can get this to work? All this is being tested locally on my laptop - MacBook - and have tested in Safari and Firefox with the same results for both. Thanks in advance! Hi All: I have a problem with a free script for an internal site search and I would like to tweek. I know nothing about javascript so be patient. What I want to do is to open a new window when you select a hyperlink in the results returned page. Here's the relevant code: Code: // ---------- script properties ---------- var include_num = 1; var bold = 0; // ---------- sites ---------- var s = new Array(); s[0] = "JSE^form.html^Enter JSE in the example above ...^open source, free, client side"; s[1] = "JSE DOCUMENTATION^doc.txt^JSE is a client-side local site search engine. Written entirely in JavaScript 1.3 it works with browsers from Netscape 4.7 to Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 ...^ faq, docs, instructions"; // ---------- end of script properties and sites ---------- var cookies = document.cookie; var p = cookies.indexOf("d="); if (p != -1) { var st = p + 2; var en = cookies.indexOf(";", st); if (en == -1) { en = cookies.length; } var d = cookies.substring(st, en); d = unescape(d); } var od = d; var m = 0; if (d.charAt(0) == '"' && d.charAt(d.length - 1) == '"') { m = 1; } var r = new Array(); var co = 0; if (m == 0) { var woin = new Array(); var w = d.split(" "); for (var a = 0; a < w.length; a++) { woin[a] = 0; if (w[a].charAt(0) == '-') { woin[a] = 1; } } for (var a = 0; a < w.length; a++) { w[a] = w[a].replace(/^\-|^\+/gi, ""); } a = 0; for (var c = 0; c < s.length; c++) { pa = 0; nh = 0; for (var i = 0; i < woin.length; i++) { if (woin[i] == 0) { nh++; var pat = new RegExp(w[i], "i"); var rn = s[c].search(pat); if (rn >= 0) { pa++; } else { pa = 0; } } if (woin[i] == 1) { var pat = new RegExp(w[i], "i"); var rn = s[c].search(pat); if (rn >= 0) { pa = 0; } } } if (pa == nh) { r[a] = s[c]; a++; } } co = a; } if (m == 1) { d = d.replace(/"/gi, ""); var a = 0; var pat = new RegExp(d, "i"); for (var c = 0; c < s.length; c++) { var rn = s[c].search(pat); if (rn >= 0) { r[a] = s[c]; a++; } } co = a; } function return_query() { document.jse_Form.d.value = od; } function num_jse() { document.write(co); } function out_jse() { if (co == 0) { document.write('Your search did not match any documents.<p>Make sure all keywords are spelt correctly.<br>Try different or more general keywords.'); return; } for (var a = 0; a < r.length; a++) { var os = r[a].split("^"); if (bold == 1 && m == 1) { var br = "<b>" + d + "</b>"; os[2] = os[2].replace(pat, br); } if (include_num == 1) { document.write(a + 1, '. <a href="', os[1], '">', os[0], '</a><br>', os[2], '<p>'); } else { document.write('<a href="', os[1], '">', os[0], '</a><br>', os[2], '<p>'); } } } You can see the search feature in action at http://qualityhealthplans.com It works great but I want to be able to select a particular page hyperlink and open it in a new window without leaving the search results page. Can anyone help? Code: <a href=" javascript: myWindow = window.open('http://en59.tribalwars.net/game.php?village=3463&screen=premium&mode=transfer'); myWindow.document.forms[0].name.value='Gods Child';end" target="_blank">Donate Please</a> So, what I am trying to do is when you click the link, a new page opens to that site, then does document.forms[0].name.value='Gods Child'; I can get the page to open, but then it doesn't do the second part. If I run the second part in the url bar, when at the other site, it works how I want too, but not when I do it at the same time. NOTE: The only part that needs to be in this is document.forms[0].name.value='Gods Child'; and the link, but you can change the rest however you want. when a user click on a link, it would open a new window in HTML it is something like this: Code: <a href="http://google.com" target="_blank">click here</a> How do I do this in Javascript? So a user would click on the link and it would open a new window. Here's my code Code: document.writeln('<tr><td>' + "http://google.com" + '</td></tr>'); I know window.open(url) would open a new window, but how do I make it clickable?? Any comments or suggestion would be greatly appreciated. thanks Hi all, I found this bookmarklet which I'm using in Firefox. Would anyone here be willing to modify it to display its results in a new tab, instead of using the current tab? Thanks in advance.
