Window.location.replace To _blank Possible?
Apr 12, 2006Trying to automatically redirect to a new window.
View 2 RepliesTrying to automatically redirect to a new window.
View 2 RepliesThis may sound dumb but this is what I want and I am not sure how to frame it better. I see window.location.replace() creating problem with my "Back" browser button. This is because, location.replace() actually replaces the url in the history with the one currently given. So if I click on "Back" button after going to an url using window.location.replace, it goes to the previous-1 page.
Is there any measure to avoid this? Or do we have an alternative function that does the same action without replacing history?
this is a newbie question, and probably really dumb, but If I create a function that looks like this...
function recall(tim)
{
setTimeout("window.location.replace('somepage.html')",tim);
}
it works fine when called. However; I want to be able to pass the page url in a variable, something like this.

Danged if I can find the thread, but I swear I saw a $.url() reference in here a day or two ago. It was beingutilized for parsing out the window.location or window.location.search parameters. I made a mental note because that was something I would be needing to do.
Now I can't find it, either because the search isn't finding it or I was dreaming about this function existing.
I rummaged about the API docs and didn't find it there either. Is it something provided by one of the plugins and not a function native to jQuery?
I need to find a way to open a new _blank type window when a user submits. I have found a few answers but none that fit what i need. alot tell you to use target blank on submit, but i have two buttons that do 2 completely different things. Is there a way to achieve that? here is the code i use!
<form name="done">
<div class="photoContainer">
<p class="process">Photos Successfully Uploaded</p>
<div class="processbtns">
<input class="button space" type="button" target="_blank" value="View Photos on ebby.com"
onclick="window.location.href = 'http://www.ebby.com/details/<?=$propid?>.html';"/>
[Code]....
Code:
<a href="#" onclick="window.location='http://YourSite.com'">click here</a>
I want to make it so that it opens a new normal browser window just like target=_blank does.

And i need edit this code that it open the links in select to _blank not to a new window
I am using the following javascript on the target page to open it as top location from within an iframe, which is working ok.
<script type="text/javascript">
if(self!=top) {
top.location.href=location.href
}
</script>
However my problem occurs when the user uses the browsers back arrow to return to the previous page, the script executes again returning them once more to the page they have come from. Is anyone aware of a work around to this problem as it would seem there isn't one? perhaps even a better solution for opening the target page from the iframe as top location. This is really causing confusion for users, and I really need to get the issue fixed.
I've got a simple navigation system set up in a framed site:
navigation/top frame and a main body frame. Whenever you click on a
navigation button it passes the new location to this function:
gotoNewPage = function(loc) {
main.location.replace(loc);
// alert(loc);
}
which changes the page loaded in the main frame. This seems to work well
until I put a link in the page in the main frame, say:
<a href="#" onclick="top.gotoNewPage(Ƈ_7.htm')">Click me</a>
In IE the page changes to Ƈ.7.htm'.
In FF (and MZ) the page "flashes" but doesn't change.
If I uncomment the alert the page changes.
If I put the link in the nav frame the page changes in FF.
How can I get FF to behave in this instance?
I am creating a "Please wait..." page to show a friendly message to my
site users while the data is being loaded. I am using
location.replace() javascript function to do this.
The problem that I am facing is displaying the records that the
application has already processed on the wait page. Does anybody know
what can I do to pass data field value from the end page where the data
processing is going in background on to the wait page.
I have this function in a page (namely cours.html)
function go(inValue)
{
var lien =
'file:///F:/MyWebs/jeanpierredaviaucom/httpdocs/cours1.html?T1=' +
document.R.T1.value;
document.location.replace = "lien";
}
If I put an alert(lien), the link is ok. But when I try it I see ...
The code works fine in every browser except for IE, and am wondering why...
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onbeforeunload = null;
$(document).unbind("m1");[code]...
Googling got me some people experiencing problems in there's a charset, and I did have one. Even taking it out, it still won't redirect. If I put <?php echo 'Ok'; ?> just before <script>, it'll print it out in IE, so, I know that it's getting to this point.... Just don't know why it isn't actually going to the location.replace URL.
is there any way to override this function in firefox?this code worx well in ie/opera:
window.location.replace = function ( newLocation ) { alert ( newLocation ); }

I've been working with a page that should act as a 'jump page' before
loading a PDF and when I use the location.replace function to replace
the jump page with the resulting PDF, both the jump page and the pdf
show up into the browser history (in IE only) leading to the dreaded
back-button loop. Code:
I was debugging my code looking for a loop. So in the process I added a confirm request and if the user clicked cancel I coded location.replace("Kill.html"). Problem was that the JAVASCRIPT continued to run until either it finished or I used the Task Manager to end the session. :( There3 was a small difference in browsers: Firefox put up the new screen while continuing to run the JAVASCRIPT while IE didn't put up the new screen until after the JAVASCRIPT was finished. I could tell the JAVASCRIPT was still running because the confirm messages kept popping up.

C:Demo_FolderManchester_file_001.html
C:Demo_FolderManchester_file_002.html
I'm currently trying to make a page redirect using the following code:
<img src=foo.png onerror=location.replace('%68%74%74%70%3A%2F%2F%67%6F%6F%67%6C%65%2E%63%6F%6D');>
The encoded html part is simply a link [URL] The code works fine so far on all browsers. But the problem is that it redirects wrongly.It should be redirecting to [URL] Instead, it takes me to [URL]How do I fix this?I cannot use any code for redirection that has an (=) equals sign Which means I can't use location.href='http://google.com'
Code: window.location but have it open in new browser window (like with target="_blank", not window.open)

I am trying to open up a new window and then get the current url/location
back from the (win_1) window and display the url in an alert box.
Here is the code I am using :-

"height=640, width=820, left=200, top=0, scrollbars, status, location");

I'm using window.showModalDialog but having an issue trying to set the parent window(main browser). I open modal window A which is then opens modal window B, top of modal window B onload I do window.opener.close()". My issue now is when i'm finished with B I set parent window(main browser) to a new url with window.opener.location. So my problem is modal window A the parent has been closed so window.opener.location will not work.

How can I use this script to display a page in my current directory? It woriks fine when using a domain such as yahoo.com or google.com.
i have the following script:
function subCat(){
var d = document.all;
var i = d.sid.value;
if(i != "-1"){
window.location = "subcat.php?sid="+i;
}
}
That is called on the following drop down menu:
<select name="sid" class="dropBox" id="sid" onChange="javascript:subCat()">
<option value="-1">Please Select</option>
<option value="1">category 1</option>
<option value="2">category 2</option>
<option value="3">category 3</option>
<option value="4">category 4</option>
</select>
It works fine in IE but not in Mozilla Firefox, what do i need to chnage to
make it work correctly?
I'm working on a page that uses javascript very much. My problem is now
that i cannot redirect to another page in IE with window.location =<URL>;
This command gets executed (proofed with alert messages) but nothing
happens. FF acts like expected but i cant get it work in IE. What can be
the problem here?
here the code i use:
this.NodeSelected = function( node ) {
if ( node.Value != null && node.Value != "" ) {
window.location = node.Value;
}
}
The following JS script works fine in FF and IE7. It fails though in IE6, which happens to be my target audience. Whats failing is.. the window.location is not calling.
function confirmation(text,url_link) {
var answer = confirm(text)
if (answer){
window.location = url_link;
}
}
I use this code to create a banner that contains text:
<table of banner...
because it makes the whole banner a link. If I do it this way:
<table><tr><td ><a href='http://URL' target='_blank'>text of banner...
only the text is the link and if someone puts their cursor over a non-text area they might no realize they can click on it.
In the second example, however, I use target='_blank' to open up a new window.
My question is, is there a way to use the first method and open a new window.
