WebDynpro ABAP iView not opening in new window

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have created an iView for a WebDynpro ABAP application and I am having a link in a home page from where the iView should open in a new page. I have set the properties "Launch in new Window" and "Show open in new window option" of the iView but still it doesn't open up in a new window.

Can someone suggest me what's going wrong?

Will reward points for helpful answer.

Hi Mukesh!

What about "the link in a homepage"? Is this homepage outside or within the portal? If it is outside the portal use

<a href="<i>link to ivew url</i>" <b>target="_new"</b>>mylink</a>

Otherwise tell us more details about the scenario.

Sorry. The display may confuse you:

... a href="<i>link to ivew url</i>" <b>target="_new"</b> ....

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

By home page, I meant that we are using home page framework.

I have checked the iView properties and everything looks ok to me.

Can you please suggest me what can be missing?

Hi Mukesh!

What kind of link do you use? I think you use a PCD path to a certain portal role. Maybe in this role the properties of the iView are not set correctly.

Can you please check this within the role?

By the way: What is or do you mean with "Home Page Framework"?

Hi Volker,

Thanks for your reply.

I think, I have set the properties of the iView right. I have tried with all the options for the property "Launch in new window" property of the iView but it didn't work.

"By home page framework" I mean that the link of the iView in portal has been created using the "Home page framework" i.e. from "SPRO" transaction in the backend.

Please let me know if you need any other input from me.

Hi Mukesh!

I think you use MSIE ... Did you already try it with Mozilla Firefox Browser?

www.firefox.com

How does the HTML source code of the Home Page look like?

Did you already trace the HTTP traffic e.g. using a tool like HTTP Watch?
