Hi Rov,

Please try to use _blank to open a page in a new tab,you can use function OpenInNewTab(url )

{
  var win=window.open(url, '_blank');
  win.focus();
}

Please refer thi link http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_open.asp

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Hi,

Try using this-

<script>
      function OpenVfpage(pid){
       var newwindow = window.open('{!navigateToEmail}');
    }
   <script>

And remove 'action="{!navigateToEmail}" from the <apex:commandButton> tag.

Hope it helps.

Try below  code :-

<pre>

VF page 
<apex:commandButton value="Send" id="email" onclick="OpenVfpage"('{!str}');return false"/>

<script>
  
  function OpenVfpage(pid){
       var newwindow = window.showModalDialog("/apex/MYVFP?id="+pid, 'open page','_blank','scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,status=no);
       newwindow.focus();
    }
</script>

You don't need your method navigateToEmail() in your controller.Just fetch the record id in your constructor and store it in a variable then you are good to go :)

something like below 

public string str{get;set;}

public constructor()
{
           str= ApexPages.currentpage().getParameters().get('recordid');//I have used this str in your onclick method above in VF page.
}


</pre>

Thanks to you all @ Vikash, @Prasannta, @vinit_kumar for your suggestions.


This is my final solution which does what i needed.

<pre>

<script>
function OpenVfpage(){
  window.showModalDialog("/apex/MYVFP?id={!recId}","dialogWidth:800px; dialogHeight:200px; center:yes");     
}
</script>


<apex:commandButton value="Send Email" id="email" onclick="OpenVfpage();"/>


Note: I am getting and setting the recId and fetching in the constructor as @vinit_kumar suggested

string recId {get;set;}

// recId = ApexPages.currentPage().getParameters().get('Id');



</pre>
