Hyperlink control, how to set parameters via code

[AlexStenAlexSten]

hello,
I'd need to use a hyperlink control on a form and set the url (Href...) via javascript, based on the ID of the current item.

Hello, Alex!
You can use JQuery to change href attribute of the link control. Give the link a class and then use this code:

Code: Select all

$(".myURL").attr("href", "http://www.website.com/");

Can you set href attribute to open in a new tab?

Thanks!

I found the answer, just the correct attribute like

$(".myURL").attr("target", "_blank");

Hello, Cloud.Ed!
Okay, great to hear that! Yes, it's a simple JQuery command to change target attribute and it should work rather straight-forward.
