Opening a new window when a link is clicked in Java

Printer PDF-417 2d barcode in Java Opening a new window when a link is clicked

First off, you want to choose what happens after a visitor clicks a link You do so by using the frame parameter If you want the linked page to open over the current one, you use the following code:

To open the linked page in a new browser window, you instead use the following code:

Other options for the value include the standard _parent, _top, or _bottom, or the name of any frame you have created

Next, you want to set the color of the wall on which the shelf hangs and the color of the shelf as well You set all colors in this applet by using hexadecimal values You probably want to set the wall color to match your own page s background color The following code example shows how to set the color of the wall and shelf:

To set the arrangement of the books on the shelf, you specify the putBooks parameter Here s how to tell Bookshelf to set the books upright:

A value of horizontal, on the other hand, means that the books are stacked sideways on the shelf The default value is horizontal, so you really only need to specify this parameter if you want them upright If you go for vertical books, you can also specify whether they re right side up or upside down You do so by using the bookturned parameter, and the only possible values are yes or no The following code makes the books sit right side up:

The previous code sets the default value for the entire shelf, but you can override it for each book You can also set any individual book to stand right side up or upside down as well, regardless of the default setting (For details, see the section Specifying the details for each book, later in the chapter) The titledirection parameter is closely related to a book s direction If the books stand in a normal, upright position, using the value downward for this parameter means that the books titles run from top to bottom, and using upward for it sends the titles from the bottom to the top The default value is upward, so you really only need to specify this parameter if you want downward titles This is the way to do it:

If the book is upside down, the title runs in the opposite direction An upward title on a book that s upside down looks the same as a downward title

To specify the font used for the titles, the you guessed it font parameter comes into play The following code sets a serif font, for example:

You set the colors of the book covers and titles with the covercolor and titlecolor parameters, using hexadecimal color values, like this:

If you set the code for a horizontal viewing and set the book covers to the same color and volume size, you get a desk look with dozens of drawers that open

Several parameters deal with the dimensions of the books, all of which require pixel values The height of the books is set via the booksize parameter, so if you want books that are 100 pixels high, you use this code:

You set the default, minimum, and maximum thickness by using three different parameters, as the following example shows:

A fourth parameter, bookvolume, works in concert with these and each individual book s thickness settings to calculate their size You re best off leaving this value set at about 10, as in the following example, although it can be interesting to experiment with different values:

You use the booksnumber parameter to set the total number of books showing If you have 20 books on the shelf, this is what you type:
