Changing The Title Bar Content Of Window.open
Aug 8, 2006
I've got a link that launches a little AJAX application in a window.
Like this:
function launchListener()
{
var newWindow = window.open("listener.php", "newWindow",
"width=300,height=150");
}
Ideally, once this window is loaded, it will sit in the background and
wait for stuff to happen. I would like to then change the title bar to
denote changes. Simple enough, right?
Anyway, problem is: When the new window launches, its title is not
exactly what I assign it in "listener.php" (for instance, "Listener"),
but rather "http://155.55.55.55 - Listener" (or whatever). This means
that while sitting the taskbar, generally all the user is going to see
is a domain name and some dots, rather than what I want them to see.

I'm opening a window with a SWF inside (no HTML, just the SWF) but in the
title bar appears something like
http://www.server.com/myDir/myWeb/Flash/myFlash.swf
i'd like to write something like "Wow!! look thos flash!!!".
Could I do that from the function who launch it??? with something like this?
myWin.title = 'Hello world!!!'

I need to open a new window from an existing HTML page to a site in
which we do not want to show the address for. I have set the titlebar
to no but it will still place the title on the titlebar Here's my
function code:
function myOpen()
{
window.open("http://
www.somewhere.com","mywindow","location=no,titlebar=no");
}
I am calling it by the following line:
<img src="art.gif" onclick="myOpen()">

I have some JavaScript that is being used to open a new window and display a PDF file. This is working fine apart from the title of the new window being open. I am using the window.open function and I have set the title of the page using the document.write function (see code below). The code works fine for FF and IE but for some reason Google Chrome just displays 'Untitled - Google Chrome'
<body>
<a href="javascript:openNewWindow();">Click Here</a>
<script type="text/javascript">
function openNewWindow()
[Code]....
Note: I have also tried adding - pdfWindow.document.title="Title"; - to the JavaScript, with no luck.
Is there anything specific that is required for Chrome or am I just missing something??

cannot get a new (picture) window to open in Firefox without the title and address bars (or anything else, just the image). IE shows just the title bar, with or without the code:
function newWindow()
{window.open('./pageaddress.html','winname','top=20,left=20,directories=0,titlebar=0,toolbar=0,location=0,status=0,menubar=0,scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=400,height=350');}
</script>
The window opens fine, but always shows the address and title bars. I have read the W3 Schools options list (and other posts) and tried both 'no' and '0' as values, without any success. What am I missing and is there any way to make this work - it didn't even work in the W3 Schools 'try it yourself' test page!
I have seen some very nice 'slowly-opening' windows (increasing in size)

I need to run window.open() via href (not via onclick) as the CMS I'm working on only allows setting the href, not the whole <a> tag. I'm doing this: <a href="javascript: window.open('myUrl.php');">click this</a> and the window pops up just fine but the originating page changes to blank with '[object Window]' in it. How can I prevent the originating page from changing URL (by adding something to the javascript call)? Like "return void;" or something - but of course that didn't work...

Been trying on and off for days to find a happy cross-browser way to open up a new window and append some content to it. Obviously not a javascript pro here, and my Google-fu has failed me...

I have 4 images on a page and when someone clicks on one of them I open a
secondary window and write a few lines to it describing the image.
If they don't close that secondary window however, and click on another of
these 4 images, my write commands print further down on that secondary
window.
I was reading through an old javascript book that talks about the
win1.document.clear(); method, but information on the Internet tells me that
this is now obsolete, or was just working on Netscape.
So then I decided to close the secondary window before re-opening it. But if
the user _did_ close the secondary window, I get an error saying that the
window I'm trying to close is already closed (or doesn't exist to be exact)!
Is there a way to clear the document in a window that I opened and wrote to?
Or is there a way to detect if win1 exists or not? If it exists, I would
close it. If it didn't exist, I would just re-open a new one.

I'm having fun changing items inside divs, spans, or anything else with a simple html() function: $("#somediv").html("text here"); But what about meta tags? I figured adding an ID to the title tag would work, but I was mistaken.
For example, I'm working on an online chat form. When someone receives a message, I'd like it to show in the title tag too, much like meebo. I've scoured the internet for this, but I've found nothing.

I am using PHP & mySql to grab the title and description that I have stored in a table in the DB.
I am trying to dynamically change the <head> <title></title>, as well as <meta name="Description" content="" /> .
I used document.title to change the title. I see the title changing in the browser, but when I click on view source in the browser to see it int he code, the title is empty. How can I also see it in the code?
How do I change the description in the meta tag?

<span class="date" title="May 14, 2009">14 May 2009</span> and I'd like JQuery script to output it as this:<span class="date" title="">May 14, 2009</span> Basically, I'm checking the browser language and I want to display all dates in US date format to all users with EN-CA and EN-US browser language (and UK format to all other users). Please let me know if there is a better way of doing it, I couldn't find anything.

I'm using jQuery to make ajax calls for content, when I click on a link and pull in the new content, I want the <title> in the <head> to change. I thought that since head and body are both siblings in the DOM I could target the <title> in the same way as a <p> or any other element and write a new value in, using replaceWith() which would then change the text in the tab at the top of the browser but it doesn't seem to work. I even tried adding <title id="title_text"> and targeting #title_text, but it doesn't change that way either. The original title text in the browser tab does change, but to the page uri. After using firebug to see what was going on when using replaceWith(), I saw that replaceWith() was replacing this:

Im using the code below to pop up a window: It works fine except for that in
the titlebar, my domain name is listed before the page title like below:
http://mydomain.com - MyPopupwindowname - Microsoft Internet Explorer
Is there any way to remove this or otherwise control what is displayed in
the titlebar? I just want it to display the page title - thats it. I dont
really care about the MSIE but I mainly dont want the domain to display.
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function popUp(URL) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "',
'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=1,width=520,height=500,left
= 245,top = 262');");
}
// End -->
</script>
<a href="javascript:popUp('MyWindow.asp')">Click Here</a>
