Hi,
 
I'm using Intraweb 14.2.7 to display a text file in a new tab and it works fine using this command (if the user does not have pop-ups blocked obviously):


If pop-ups are blocked then it's not very obvious to the user why the text file didn't open and so I would like to display a helpful message. If I change my command to the following I do get a helpful message but then it will display the text file in a new window not in a new tab



So, how can I add pop-up detection and display the text file in a new tab and not in a separate window?
 
Or, to put it another way:
 
Why does the following display a file in a new tab


 
 But this one displays it in a window?
 

Many thanks in anticipation
Ian.

Hi Ian, how about show this text file in a IWMODALwindow? See this demo.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I was not familiar with this particular demo and having played with it I like what I see.

However, for this project the users specifically want the file displayed in a separate tab, not one file overlaying the current screen so they can open more than one at the same time. They're very particular!

Hi Ian,

basically because this


is exactly the same as this:


Possible combination of options (the last parameter) are:

  TIWWindowOption = (
    woButtons, woStatusBar, woMenuBar, woScrollBars, woResizable,
    woCopyHistory, woFullScreen, woDetectBlock, woDefault);

So, I believe you are looking for this:


Which will use the default option but still keeping the popup blocker detection in place

Hi Alexandre,

You believe correctly, woDefault, is the window option I was missing. With that it works exactly as I was hoping.

Thank you very much for your help.

Ian.

you're welcome! Thanks for the feedback!
