Launching separate target window

Please note that official support for this menu version has now ceased. There are still plenty of users, though, and the forum is still running. Some of our long-time users may be able to help you out.

Launching separate target window

Post by Stephen Bradshaw »

Hi,

Is it possible to launch a separate target browser window?

I am using the menu to point to individual pdf files, but want a separate broswer window to be created for each pdf.

Thanks in advance

Hi Stephen,

You may find what you're looking for here. You can either specify a target= in your menu item's URL, or you can use a small javascript function to open a new window. I prefer the javascript approach, because it gives you control over many of the new window's properties (size, position, scrollbars, etc.). You could pass the .pdf file name as a parameter to this function, then set the new window's location.href to open the file.

Hope that helps,

Kevin
