upgrading to TS 6.5

I am working on upgrading from 5.5.2 to 6.5.0, and I have a question about CGI scripts. I am working on converting a custom CGI script that is used for a job posting. In version 5.5.2, when I started the CGI program, it opened up a new window that had scroll bars. I have got the page displaying in version 6.5, but it does not pop up a new window and does not give me scroll bars. I can't get to the bottom of the page. I have tried to modify the ui_customer.xml with "windowFeatures", but that does not seem to help. Does anyone have suggestions on how to make this open up in a new window or how I can add scroll bars? Thank You

How are you calling this CGI program? Is it a custom menu item? We have custom menu items defined for TeamSite 6.5 and they pop-up in their own window and have scrollbars. To add this custom menu item we inserted the following lines into ui_custom.xml:


<menu id="iw.ccpro.file.menu">
  <link id="cu.deploy_any_item.link"
    label="Deploy Any"
    description="Deploy to any Environment"
    url="/iw-bin/wdpro_menu.ipl/deploy_any.cgi"
    target="_blank"
    operationID="cu.ccpro.deploy_any.op">
  </link>
</menu>

In addition to: target="_blank"as Phil shows in his example, you also have the option of including something along the lines of: windowFeatures="width=100,height=100,location=no,menubar=no,status=no,toolbar=no,titlebar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,left=4000"All this, and more, is documented in the User Interface Customization Guide (UICG) - if you don't have it - download it -- and of course, use it.

Thanks for the info (you to Phil), it seems that I didn't have the 'target="_blank"' line.
