Re: Opening Wicket Page in New Browser Tab/Window
Some months ago I had the same/similar problem. You have to add the attribute by overriding onComponentTag(ComponentTag tag). As far as I remember you should use the usual org.apache.wicket.markup.html.form.Button with it, AjaxButton won't work. Form form = new Form("ConvertForm") { @Override protected void onComponentTag(ComponentTag tag) { super.onComponentTag(tag); tag.put("target", "_blank"); } }; -- How to find files on the Internet?

Re: Opening Wicket Page in New Browser Tab/Window
Unfortunately, by that point, it's too late. The small HTML form has already appeared in my app window, & even the map viewer subsequently opens in a new window, my app content has been destroyed. Since I posted this topic, I decided to go with PopupSettings. Since my corporate target audience all has Internet Explorer, I can tell them to configure the browser to open popups in a new tab. However, this fix means that in Firefox (which doesn't offer this option) users still get a free floating popup, even if that's not what they want. Sounds like the powers that be ought to think about this for Wicket 1.5. This is such a standard browser feature it's absence seems (IMHO) like a serious deficiency in the framework. -- View this message in context: http://apache-wicket.1842946.n4.nabble.com/Opening-Wicket-Page-in-New-Browser-Tab-Window-tp3752465p3753218.html Sent from the Users forum mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@wicket.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@wicket.apache.org

Opening Wicket Page in New Browser Tab/Window
How can I make a Wicket page open in a new browser tab/window? I'm not talking about a popup, but a standard window. I have an app that needs to open a GIS map viewer in a separate window, based on the user's current context. The map viewer requires that I submit a form with GPS coordinates, so I need Wicket to render some simple HTML with the coordinates in hidden form fields, then submit the form to the map viewer URL as soon as the page renders. This part is no problem. The problem is that Wicket renders the HTML in the wrong window. Currently, I'm using code to generate the link to invoke the map viewer: *final MenuItem mapMenu = new EnmMenuItem("Map") { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; @Override protected AbstractLink newLink(final String componentId) { final SubmitLink link = new SubmitLink(componentId, form) { private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L; @Override public void onSubmit() { selectMapMenu(); } }; link.setDefaultFormProcessing(false); link.setEnabled(true); link.setRenderBodyOnly(false); link.add(new SimpleAttributeModifier("target", "_blank")); return link; } };* When the menu item is chosen, the following is invoked: *@Override protected void selectMapMenu() { for (final TrackSummary summary : grid.getSelectedItems()) { try { setResponsePage(new TrackMapRequestPage(summary.getSystemNumber())); } catch (final UnauthorizedPageError ex) { error(ex.getMessage()); } } }* Despite setting the link target to "_blank", the TrackMapRequestPage opens in the SAME window as the application.
