JavaScript - Popup Window Where Main Window Is Maintained In Background

Hi, I'm having troube closing the main Internet Explorer window using a script called from a right click menu.

The code I'm using is:

Code:

<script language="JavaScript">
  var oWindow = window.external.menuArguments;
  oWindow.close();
</script>

When the script calls, windows prompts to close the window, but when 'yes' is clicked the Alert sound sounds and the window remains open!

If the script is called from a button on the page it will close, but I want to close any page on the internet using a right click!

All help will be gratefully received.

Dave.

Ok, 'nother head-banger for the hardcore!

I have a "contact us" <a> with the id 'contact' on the main page, which is supposed to change the source file of an iframe to the contact page. Except when I click on "contact us" nothing happens.

I've tried to get this to work several different ways, and suspect that the problem is purely syntax, but I just haven't been able to figure it out.

Here's the code:

The snippet on the main page (index.html):

Code:

                <div id="linkListContact" class="LinkList">
				<img id="linkListContactBg" class="SideBarBgImg" src="Assets/Backgrounds/SideBar/ContactBg.png"></img>
                    <span>
                    <ul>
                        <li>
                            <div><a id="contact">Contact Us</a>
                            </div>
                        </li>
                    </ul>
                    </span>
                </div>

... and the relevant Javascript:

Code:

function setIFrame(frameSource)
	{
		document.getElementById('mainWindow').src = frameSource;
	}

function setContactLink()
	{
		var contactURL = "http://katabasis.spreadshirt.com/shop/imprint"
		document.getElementById('contact').onclick = new Function ( "setIFrame( 'contactURL' )" );
	}

The setIFrame function is used to call the content initially when the page loads, and is working beautifully in that context. You can see the problem in action at the actual site: www.katabasis-apparel.com.

Thanks.

Hi All

How popup windows are made using Javascript? I am not talking about the popups cretaed using window.open. I am talking about the window which appears to display some advertisements in most of the sites.

Charles

I was wanting to know if it was possible to use eventlistener on a popup window? What i am wanting to do is this. My script runs functions then uses window.open to open a specified url when the window opens i want it to alert a message for useage of said url.

Hopefully someone can help a newbie with this.

I have a map with onclick areas. When you click these areas, a popup window displays a text file. This is rather cumbersome, so I thought of using a popup box instead of a window and linking this to an onmouseover and onmouseout event.

The only problem I have is trying to find out how to dump the contents of the text file into the popup box using the simplest means.

The URL of the map I am trying to do this with is:

http://www.intercitycharters.com/Weather/Summary.php

Any suggestions?

In my page i have to open the popup window when i do on click. one place it is opening correctly. but in another case not able to open. Can you give me the solution on this one.

In the following html code i am able to open the popup window.
Code:

  <td colspan=2 width=90% background="graphics/barbkg.gif" class=fcCalMonthDay_gren height=16 align=center>

        <div id=fcContentLegned style="display:block;"><a href=# onClick="javascript:OZ_openBrWin4('ozLOVNoteCenter.jsp')">Daily Notes Center</a></div>
      </td>

but in the following javascript method not able to open the popup window when i do onclick.

Code:

 var currContentView = 'calDailyNotes'; // calOrg, calPsn, calOpp
  function selectContent( curr )
  {
    if ( fcCalRefreshInProgress == 1 )
      return;

    currContentView = curr;
    document.getElementById('calDailyNotes').className='';
    document.getElementById('calOrg').className='';
    document.getElementById('calPsn').className='';
    document.getElementById(curr).className='genTblContentCellCal';

    if ( curr == 'calDailyNotes' )   document.getElementById('fcContentLegned').innerHTML = '<a href="#" onClick="javascript:OZ_openBrWin4(ozLOVNoteCenter.jsp)">Daily Notes Center</a>';    // Here i am not able to open the popup window.

    else if ( curr == 'calOrg' )     document.getElementById('fcContentLegned').innerHTML = 'Recent Organizations';
    else if ( curr == 'calPsn' )     document.getElementById('fcContentLegned').innerHTML = 'Recent Contacts';
          
    fc_refresh_content_view('<%=submitUrlNotes%>&refreshview=Y&view='+curr, '<%=ozDay.renderDayKey(_ahsPage)%>' );
  }

thanks in advance...

I have a problem in centering my popup window. I want it centered in the page when it pops up. The problem is in the code that is red.

Here's a part of my script:

if (counter == 0)
{
var myRes = "<html><head>\n";
myRes += "<title>Popup Window</title>\n";
myRes += "</head><body>\n";
myRes += "<div style='text-align:center'>\n";
myRes += "<p>Search character '<b>" + searchChar + "</b>' not found in text string!</p>\n";
myRes += "<input type='button' value='Close Window' onclick='window.close()'>\n";
myRes += "</div>\n";
myRes += "</body>\n</html>";

var popup = window.open("", "Popup", "top=10,left=300,width=300,height=100");
popup.focus();
popup.document.write(myRes);
popup.document.close();

If anyone could please help me with this basic feature, I would much appreciate it!

I have this function:
Code:

function popupWin(href)
{
window.open(href, "popup", "width=770,height=675");
return;
}

but when I run it, it opens in the same window. I'm really new to Javascript, and I'm sure it's a basic fix, I just can't seem to figure it out.

Thank you!!

Hi,
I desperately need help after hours of reading 1000s of forums just to be able to have a thumbnail which will enlarge in a new window.
I've found this script in one of the forums, and I am trying to apply it to my page. But when I click on a thumbnail, although it's opening a pop-up window, it also enlarges the image in the current browser. How should I fix this?
I also need to do the same thing with a .swf file. How can I have a flash movie enlarge when clicked?

Any help is appreciated thanks in advance!!

Hi

I want to create a popup that is completely contained within the page (so i guess its not really a popup). I'm looking for something where if a button is clicked, a small box will come up in the current window and become the active window, while the original window is visible but not active.

It's hard to explain, but its a popup that is contained in the same window. And when the user presses okay or cancel on the "popup" window. They return to where they were in the original window. Is this possible? How would I do it?

Thanks

Hello , everyone. Was wondering if you can put a single popup that could appear to many visitors to a site at the same time , regardless of the page you 're browsing . Is there a chance to do it in JavaScript or another language ? How could i do it? Iappreciate the help .

Hi! I'm new to this, so please bare with me. My terminology may not be up to par.

Here's the deal:

- I have a button on my Flash site that opens an HTML page in a popup window. In Flash, I open the new window using Actiosnscript 2.0:
Code:

on (release) {
	getURL("example1.html", "_blank");
}

- Within the popup window are links to other HTML pages. They all open in the same window. I've been using the following to create the links in Dreamweaver:
Code:

onClick="MM_goToURL('parent','example2.html')"

- On each page, I have a "Return to Main Menu" button that should close the popup window. To do this, I have been using:
Code:

onClick="window.close()"

- The problem is that it works differently in each browser, and I can't even get it to consistently close the window in most browsers:
Internet Explorer = popup message appears, asking "Are you sure you want to close this window?" or something similar; window closes after clicking "Yes."
Safari = Only closes if I'm on the original HTML page. If I click on any of the other links (note that these all open in the same window), those pages' "Return to Main Menu" buttons cease to work. However, if I keep clicking "Back" until I get to the original page, it closes.
Opera = Button actually works for each page.
Firefox & Chrome = Does not close the window at all.

I looked into it and saw that others have used a window.opener to solve similar issues. But, since my popup window is opened using Flash/AS2, I need to find a way around it. I've tried preceding "window.close()" with "window.opener=null" (i.e. - onClick="window.opener=null; window.close()"), but I don't think I'm doing it right because it still doesn't work.

I've also seen others use codes that involve functions and variables, but it is beyond my current coding knowledge to implement this. Like I said, I'm sort of new at this.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,

I have a code that opens a new window from a flash movie. The window opens fine, but the parent window goes blank and displays this on the top left of the screen:

[object] (in IE8)
[object Window] (in Firefox)

Does anyone know what I'm missing?

This is the code for the button that opens the new window:

on (release) {
getURL ("javascript:window.open('/RG_Map.pdf','RGCommunityMap','width=700,height=700');");
}

I have a js confirmation function:

PHP Code:
function r_u_sure(message, url){
if(confirm(message)) location.href = url;
} 


if I were calling this function with a regular href, I would use the following:

PHP Code:
<a HREF="javascript:r_u_sure('Are Sure You want to Delete or Modify Car Information?!','www.somewhere.com)"><a/> 


however my html link which begins the deletion process of a records opens a popup box that performs. the link is the following:

PHP Code:
<a onmouseover='this.style.cursor=\"pointer\" ' onfocus='this.blur();' onclick="document.getElementById('PopUp10').style.display = 'block' \"><span><img border='0' src='../images/editcar_info.png' width='40' height='40' title='Delete or Modify Car'></span></a> 


Any thoughts on how can conbine both so that onclick of the link, first, the confirm box appears, if "ok" is selected, the pop up box will open, else the dialogue box closes and nothing happens.
