SharePoint User Group UK

hi all

i have a hard problem!!

this is my first sharepoint project and i need to develop a webpart. in this webpart must call to the internet explorer with site url dynamically in the code.

 

i tried so many ways, but always faild (although those ways succeeded in .net forms and asp.net).

 

if someone have an idea pleaaaaaaaase  publish it :)

with best regards

Daniel

 

 

Hi Daniel, What exactly are you trying to achieve? And what do you mean make a call to Internet explorer, You want to open a new explorer window?

I'm assuming you want something a little more sophisticated than the Page Viewer webpart that comes out of the box?

Paul.

hi paul

i agree that the problem seems simple. but i tried so much ways that success in winform and asp.net but didn't work in sharepoint (using webpart extenstion).

simply i need a way to open an another internet explorer, maybe other thread, (or navigate the curent page) with other url.

in c# winform:

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://microsoft.com");  but this and all other ways faild in sharepoint.

but again i tried like 7 ways that work on winform but not on sharepoint.

thanks

Daniel

Create a simple javascript script, register it on the page and call it when you want the page to open, rough example:

this.myNewWindowOpener.Target = "_blank"; 
this.myNewWindowOpener.NavigateUrl = "BLOCKED SCRIPTopenNewWindow('http://example.com/page.aspx)";

Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(),"windowopen", @"<script>function openNewWindow(target) {window.open (target,'NewWindow'); return false;}</script>",true);

hi paul again

thanks for help, but the problem that i never used javascript.

other problem, the code apove seems that can open only 'http://example.com/page.aspx)" whole i need dinamiclly decide wich page to navigate to!!

anyway  thanks again

Daniel

So replace the url with the one you want. If it's dynamic then, use whatever variable you need to by use of string concatenation.

hi again

thanks paul again.. at last i didn't used javascript, because i never used it. i need to learn it soon because it seem a powerful.

i used SPutility.redirect func. this doesn't open a new ie. but sufficient for thios time.
