JavaScript - How To Open In New Tab With These?

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 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.

Code:

javascript:q=""+(window.getSelection?window.getSelection():document.getSelection?
document.getSelection():document.selection.createRange().text);if(!q)
q=prompt("Search terms [leave selection and box blank to list all pages] 
...").replace(/\s\+/g,"%252B");if(q!=null)location="http://www.google.com
/search?q="+q.replace(/\s+/g,"+")+"+site:"+location.hostname;void(0);

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

Dear friends,

I use this script wich works fine in FF, Opera and Chrome but not in IE!

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
function DoAllThese() {
window.open('http://google.com', 'One','_blank');
window.open('http://www.yahoo.com','Two','_blank');
}
</script>

Code:

<button onClick="DoAllThese();">Open</button>

Is it possible to do it in IE?

Code:

<SCRIPT language=JavaScript>
function DoSearch() {
if (document.frmSearchID.txtIssueID.value != "") {
if (isNaN(document.frmSearchID.txtIssueID.value)) {
alert('Issue Numbers must be numeric');} 
else {document.location = "http://www.****.com/Apps/AddIssues/EditIssue.asp?IssueID=" + document.frmSearchID.txtIssueID.value + "&ProjectID=LRUSTARS";}}}
</SCRIPT>
            <FORM style="display:inline" target="_blank" action="http://www.****.com/default.asp?ProjectID=LRUSTARS#" name="frmSearchID" onSubmit="javascript:DoSearch();return false;" method="post">
          		<INPUT class="formField1" name="txtIssueID">
                <INPUT class="formBox" onClick="javascript:DoSearch(); return false;" type="submit" name="search" VALUE="Search">
            </form>

Cant seem to get it to open in a new window any help?

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?

Hi I'm new here and need some help;

I have the code below which is used to open up a chat window, the problem is all browser treat this as a pop up and block it!

What could be changed to get round this?

$chat = "window.open( '" . SK_Navigation::href("private_chat", array("userKey"=>$pr_key, "oppUserKey"=>$opp_key, 'is_esd_session'=>1 )) . "', '', 'height=540,width=415,left=100,top=100,scrollbars=no,resizable=no' );";

Thanks

Hello All,
i have a script which which restrict a user to access a page once per day, i need your help to modify the script so that a user can view the page once in 90 days.

<script language ='javascript'>
function createCookie(name,value,days) {
if (days) {
var date = new Date();
date.setTime(date.getTime()+(days*24*60*60*1000));
var expires = "; expires="+date.toGMTString();
}
else var expires = "";
document.cookie = name+"="+value+expires+"; path=/";
}

function readCookie(name) {
var nameEQ = name + "=";
var ca = document.cookie.split(';');
for(var i=0;i < ca.length;i++) {
var c = ca[i];
while (c.charAt(0)==' ') c = c.substring(1,c.length);
if (c.indexOf(nameEQ) == 0) return c.substring(nameEQ.length,c.length);
}
return null;
}

/* Check the cookie and redirect if they have it set. */

sWhere = 'http://google.com'; // replace this with where you want them to be sent when they can't view page.

if(!readCookie('viewcheck')){
createCookie('viewcheck',1,1);
} else {
window.location = sWhere;
}
</script>

Hi i am designing a site for my cross country team, it can be seen here..

http://craterxc.angelfire.com/

If you click the photos link you will see one image on the page.. when you click it it is supposed to open the backbox image viewer which i got from..

http://javascriptkit.com/script/script2/backbox/

If you are using IE you will notice instead of opening the image viewer it opens a new page with a larger version of the original picture. All other browsers work correctly and open the backbox image viewer..

Please help me figure out why this does not work in IE as i've searched for an answer for a few days now and have had no luck! Thanks
