Window.open And Focus

Mar 10, 2006

if anyone is still curious about this recently posted issue creating error 'member not found'

function imageWindow(whichImage)
{
imageWindow = window.open(whichImage,
'myWindow','width=450,height=200')
imageWindow.focus()
}

I was experiencing the same problem and determined that the error was experienced when loading a pdf file. in the above case the user appears to be loading an image. The problem does not occur when simply loading html files.

Window.open Changes Focus In Safari?

Mar 24, 2011

I use a cookie to keep track of a particular window (using window.name), lets call this the main window. I use the window to distribute data returned from the server.

I use window.open("",mainWindowName) to get the reference to the main window object.

The problem is in nearly all browsers this works fine (focus stays on the current window), however in Safari, window.open also sets focus to that window (mainWindowName).

Of course I can reset focus back to the current window in Safari, but there is a quick flash of windows focus changing and it doesn't look good.

JQuery :: Detect If A Named Window Is Already Open And Change Focus To It?

Jul 5, 2011

I'm relatively new to jQ and would like to determine if a named window is already open. If it is then I want to change focus to that window/tab. The scenario is this. I have a link in App1 that opens a new window to an already existing linked (related) web form in App2. If the user forgets they have that window open in App2 and clicks the same link in App1 as before (to open the related form in App2,) it opens a window that is not the same window as the original window. I need App1 to detect if a window already exists in the browser of the same name and if so, change the browser focus to it.

After Open A Child, How To Keep Parent On Focus

Oct 14, 2009

After open a child window, I would like to keep parent window on focus. I tried self.focus(), set new window in blur() as well as setting the setInterval, none of them works in either Firefox or IE. I think this question relates to the opening window in tab rather than in new window.

Clicking Same Link To Already Open Popup Doesn't Bring It Back Into Focus

Jan 17, 2011

There are 3 graphics (top left of page) which open a linked page in a pop up window; each popup comes into focus the first time it's opened - clicking on the same graphics again doesn't bring the already opened popups back into focus.I had originally sized each popup as 320x430px in the body at each of the 3 references to the linked pages, but discovered that (in FF portable 3.65.13) the popups all opened full-size windows. In an attempt to resolve this I removed the size info from each of these 3 page references (lines 84, 89, 94) and moved it to the head (line 67) which seems to have resolved the size issue, but works only when I specify the popup to be any size except the original size of 320x430 (e.g. 320x431; I have now settled for 321x431)

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.

Need To Customize The Size Of The Window.open Window For Different Links

Jul 23, 2005

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....

Focus On Second Window

Jul 23, 2005

If I use the following construct in the frame "main" for a link to an
extern site:

<A HREF="http://www.any.xy" TARGET="extern">

the Browser is creating the window "extern", loading the page
www.any.xy an setting the focus to "extern". But when I go return to
"main" without closing "extern", a click to an other link (e.g.
www.2nd_any.xy) on "main" does not setting the focus to "extern".

For setting the focus to "extern" in the second case, I have used the
following construct:

<A HREF="http://www.any.xy" TARGET="extern"
onClick="setTimeout('extern=window.open('','extern');fr emd.focus();',500);">
an example</A>

This construct has worked very well for a few years, but since about
one year, the sesult was the same as using
<A HREF="http://www.any.xy" TARGET="extern">

In this year, I have changed:
win 95 --> win 2000
modem 56k --> DSL
Netscape 4.5 --> Netscape 7.1

Can anybody tell me a possibility setting the focus to "extern" in the
second case? Is the changing of my configuration the reason, that the
construct has failed?
