How To Open A New Window In Firefox And Keep The Reference?

Sep 3, 2007

For an in-house web application (it will only be deployed on Firefox
browsers with JavaScript turned on), I need to open a preview window
(which needs to be a separate window, even if Firefox is set to open
targeted links in new tabs) and be able to change the preview window's
location.href from the opening window, even after a new page is loaded
into that window.

Window.open() Amd Window.opener.document In FireFox

Mar 14, 2009

Firstly I know this issue has been addresses a lot already but as a newbie to HTML and Web Development I am unable to get the idea. according to documentations and solutions proposed on different forums a popup or child window can be only closed using window.close() if it is opened via window.open() function.

Window.open() Problem In Firefox

Aug 3, 2006

I am using window.open in an AJAX page and it works in both IE and FF but in the latter the hourglass stays up and both the progress bar and the small animated circle-of-dots graphic keep on running indefinitely in the new window.

I can press the STOP button to get them to stop, but I'm wondering if there is
something else I can do to get rid of this behavior. The page is most
definitely loading properly and completely.

If it matters what I am writing to the new document is an XML document after
being passed through an XSL sheet. Sometimes the XML doc is large enough to
fill several pages of the viewport, but often it is just a few lines and the
problem is the same regardless.

Window.open - Firefox/IE Not Working?

Oct 24, 2010

I have written a simple code to open up a new window onclick of a button as follows;

function loadExamp()
{
var reqType = getElementValue("reqType", 1);

[code]....

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;

Message: Invalid argument.
Line: 74
Char: 2

Open New Window Without Title & Address Bars In Firefox?

Aug 31, 2009

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)

Open A Pdf By Entering Reference

Jul 23, 2005

We're in the process of re-writing the Intranet at work, and my javascript
knowledge could be written on the back of a post card. ;-)

Can any of you point me in the direction of some code that would enable a
form to open a specific pdf file? Details are below.

--------------------
All of our purchase orders are saved back to pdf files. Each pdf has the
prefix "PO_" followed by the po reference, then the file extension ".pdf".
For example, our file would be called "PO_12345M.pdf".
Each set of files is archived into years (folders are called 2003, 2004,
2005 etc.) so it will probably need a drop down box to select year, unless
it can search through all the folders.

The visitor should only need to enter the PO reference, and the code puts
the "PO_" and the ".pdf" on the end of it, and hey presto Acrobat opens with
the PO, or you get an error dialog if the file cannot be found.

Get Reference To A Possible Popup Window

Jan 4, 2006

Since a few years I make use of an online service which provides me
statistics about visits to my web site. The only thing I have to do is
to include a few lines of Javascript in the most important page. The
company providing this service - Nedstat - has been acquired by a more
commercial party called Webstats4U and they have now decided to cause a
popup window to appear with a commercial message, every new day you
start up the page. Given the nature of the web page, this is
unacceptable. Does anybody know how to check whether a window has been
opened from a page and - if so - how to get a reference to that popup
window so that I can close it?

Can't Reference Parent Window From Within An Iframe

Feb 27, 2011

I have an iframe that can successfully reference its parent window, using the following code:

var elm = window.parent.document.getElementById('iframesID');

This works flawlessy in all browsers, EXCEPT for some reason, Safari 5 on Mac (Safari 5 on Windows works fine).

After debugging a bit, I found that the script breaks exactly on that line, and alerting the value of window.parent returns undefined. Going nuts! I Googled this specific question way too long and found no responses.

Child Pop Up Race Condition Using Window.open Need To Detect Window.onload

Nov 22, 2011

I am trying to pop up a window and then do stuff(set flags) when the content of the new window is done loading. For this I am trying to detect the window.onload of the pop-up child window but so far I am unsuccessful. I believe my problem is that the URL of child window is on different domain, than the one of the opener(parent) so that the window.onload is not being called. Though this may change, at the moment I do not have access to the code for the page I'm opening up in the pop-up. Im pretty new to web development.

[Code]....
