Is it possible to specify that a shortcut should be shown in a new window or tab?

It quite a logical feature for the enduser. It looks like there is no way of specifying the link target for a page shortcut. I hope i am wrong.

Hi Remi

 

You cannot specify to open in a new window. You could back in 2002 actually.

 

The only workaround I can think of, is to do a condiational in your XSLT that if you have a shortcut that is to an external ressource, i.e. starting with http, you set a target to _blank.

Can this be made a feature request?

I would prefer user control. For some sites this might work but is not always the case.

Hi,  

At http://grublestova.no/Dynamicweb/General/external-links.aspx you will find two ways of opening links in a new window in Dynamicweb.One is a Javascript that looks for http(S):// in links, the other is an XSLT navigation template that adds _blank to the link if it starts with Http

Enjoy

David
