When a percentage sign exists in a field that needs to be sent to another form through the "extraqs" URL parameter, it "breaks" the ribbon by hiding it under a blue bar. See screenshots for visual aid.
This is the method I use to send the extraqs to the newly opened window to the form:
Share
Reportwindow.open("/main.aspx?etn=new_privatemessages&pagetype=entityrecord&extraqs=" +
encodeURIComponent(extraqs), "_blank", features, false);
The field that is causing this is a lookup field that is meant to be auto-populated through the built in CRMD functionality, using the id and name parameters.
I'm not sure how to fix it. Any ideas?

Based on MSDN new window option is available in 2015 - msdn.microsoft.com/.../jj602956(v=crm.7).aspx
Actually, the onload function issue seems unrelated. I put back the old code and it's still there.
Here's the function that I created using your initial feedback:
All responses (
Answers (
function OpenNewMessage(extra) {
var windowOptions = {
openInNewWindow: true
};
var parameters = {};
parameters["new_caseid"] = parent.Xrm.Page.data.entity.getId();
parameters["new_caseidname"] = parent.Xrm.Page.getAttribute("title").getValue();
if(typeof extra !== 'undefined'){
for(param in extra){
parameters[param] = extra[param];
}
console.log(parameters);
}
parent.Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm("new_privatemessages", null, parameters, windowOptions);
}
That's a bit weird - I have never experienced those issues.
Can you please provide code you used previously - that uses window.open? Also can you please post an example that causes issue you mentioned in initial post?
The Xrm.Utility.openEntityForm method does solve the percentage sign problem, but introduces new ones.
The windowOptions parameter doesn't seem to work. Could be a CRM version issue.
Internet Explorer (Chrome works fine) now brings up an error saying that one of my onload functions on the opened form is undefined.
Not sure I like that trade-off.
Hello,
