SLX 754 - Adding a navigation menu item that opens a new window causes a postbackYour last visit to this thread was on 1/1/1970 12:00:00 AM

In our SLX 754 environment, we have a tool bar menu item called &ldquoroposal Log”.


 


The Nav URL is set to:


javascript:window.open('http://intranet/slxproposallog/Default.aspx', 'Proposal');window.location = window.location;


 


Now, the link above does open a new browser window, but it also causes a postback to SalesLogix.


 


This becomes a problem if you’ve navigated between multiple accounts using the smaller group window or the forward/back buttons.  The postback will bring you to the screen you had started from.


 


If I don’t pass “window.location=window.location”, the SLX window still gets a postback but returns simply “[object]”, so it must be expecting something.


 


Any help would be appreciated! 


 


Thanks,


Ryan

Well, by trial and error, the following URL seems to work:


javascript:window.open('http://intranet/slxproposallog/Default.aspx'); nothing;


By passing 'nothing', no postback occurs, which is what we wanted.


I hope someone finds this useful!

Oh thank you for that!!! I think I've searched the hole internet twice to find out how to define that f*** target to open a new window.


Still works like that with SLX 8.1
