Window.open - Trying To Display A New Window With A Different Title
May 30, 2007
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'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.
Is it possible to create a link to have a window pop up and not have the bar that has the title and minimize/maximize/close icons? If so, how could I do this?
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 have a HTML and I am opening another link in a separate window using window.open() . The child window is something like 'http://yahoo.com' which is out side html. I need to refresh the parent window when the child window is closed.
I have a problem on the links on my page im working.sorry guys still a noob and my english is not that good. :b. my question is like i have a list of packages of food. [link_a] [link_b] [link_c] and i have a function that i put in my head tag:
function linkA() { window.open('link_a.html','link','width=300,height=200,resizable=yes'); }
now i can go to linka.html by click my link <A HREF="javascript:linkA()" >link a</A> is there a way i can have one functions that can open a link depend on what page .when it clicks then go to its designated page or i have to stick on writing function for linkB ,C,D and so on.
I need a script that will open a new window (popup / new link) in a specific size, but will also close the old window (where the popup came from). I know the popup window is easy but finding a work-able close window script as the new window is opened is impossible!!
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.
I need to open a popup window from a PHP site and pass in some parameters to use in the pop up window. I have the params in an input box and need to get the val of the box into a param and pass it to the new popup window. All pages are local and in the same folder. The id of the input box is 'ddutykey'. The name of the new window would be showduty.php if possible.
I've got this row of images (in the end there will be more rows of pics as well). When a user clicks on the image, I want a new window to open with a larger version of the image. I want that new window to be customized to the size of the new larger image. Also, when users go back to see other images in their larger size, I want the new window (assuming they never closed the first one) to come back to the front.
I've only gotten as far as getting the larger images to open in a new window at a set size in the function. I thought I could just make specific scripts for each image, but that would be cumbersome to say the least....
but what I need is, after the new window is popped up, the opener will be redirected to another page, I want the another page able to control the popup window is it possible? is there something like getWindowById.
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.
The original window should not reload, but is, and I have tested it with both version 4.72 and 7.02, and they both do it. IE does not do it. The big problem is that the original window has security built into it so it must be called from the right referring url, but when Netscape reloads this parent window, it neglects to send the original referring url, so the original page is replaced with an error page as soon as the above link is clicked.
Is there any workaround for this, where either Netscape will not reload the original page, or if it does, at least not lose the referring url?
I'm using window.open to create a secondary window, and everything is working fine with that. My problem is that as soon as that window is opened, the parent window scrolls to the top of its page. So when the user closes the secondary window, they've lost their place in the parent document.
Is this normal behavior for window.open? Is there a quick way to prevent it, or is it more likely a problem with my Javascript?
window.open() doesn't open an entirely new window in FF3.6, just a new tab
Edit: Yeah, ok, so if i specify a size smaller than the current standard window, it'll be forced to open a new window. but what if i want a new standard sized window to open entirely?
