IE 6 Can't open new windows from link clicked
Thread Solved |
when on a site I click on a link which opens a new IE, the IE doesn't load up the document, how can I set it up where when I click on a link the document can get opened up in a new window? thanks

Do you mean that you want all links to open up in a new window? I don't think you could set this as default - nor do I see why you'd want to? On the other hand, you can right click on any link and choose "open in new window"

When you click on some links, they go straight to the link without opening up a new IE and some links tend to open up a new IE to show the linked page, well when I click on the ones that have to open up a new IE, and new IE opens but it doesn't show anything on the page. I figured it might be one of my custom level functions but i don't know which, thanks.

The solution to your problem isn't in your browser. The HTML code for the page specifies if the link should be opened in a new window, or not.

Do you have a popup killer that is just horribly written?

try the following:
1) launch IE, go to Tools & then Internet Options;
2) on the General tab (which it launches to) delete cookies and temporary internet files, including all offline content;
3) go to Advanced tab, lower right click on restore defaults and click Apply;
4) go to Programs tab, middle left click on reset web setting, (recommend you deslect reset homepage);
5) go to Privacy tab (if present), if Default Levels button is active click it;
6) go to Security tab and for each zone set levels to Default Levels if said button is active; click OK.

click on Start and select Run. I typed regsvr32 actxprxy.dll then clicked OK. Then I typed regsvr32 shdocvw.dll and clicked OK. Restart you computer. If new windows still won't work you may have to try re-installing your browswer. Also, STRONGLY recommend backing up your entire hard drive before the procedure. NOTE: This worked for me using IE Version 5.5.
For IE 6 try:
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 urlmon.dll
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 Shdocvw.dll
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 Msjava.dll
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 Actxprxy.dll
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 Oleaut32.dll
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 Mshtml.dll
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 Browseui.dll
Start-->Run-->regsvr32 Shell32.dll
shouldn't have to reboot...

Thanks a lot. The problem seems to be solved. I tried all your run commands with the exception of Msjava.dll as I don't have that on my computer but apart from that evrything else was OK
