Hi,
there is a button, and a "link/href" property.
i have a variable like [the_url] and when i put it there it works and when user click button he will go to that link.

now i want open that link in new tab, i spend almost whole day but cant make it...
anyone know how to do it?

Thanks

noyzen:

1) Leave the link/href property of the Button empty.

2) Place these commands in the Code section (tab) for the Button ...

Code: Select all

BeginJS
window.open('https://www.google.com','_blank');
EndJS

... just replace https://www.google.com with the URL of your target webpage.

EndJS

That is because you can not use regular NeoAppBuilder variables (i.e. those wrapped within [ and ] ) with javascript commands (i.e. commands used between BejinJS and EndJS ... you have to copy values from one namespace to another ... this is done using $rootspace like in the example below ...

Code: Select all

SetVar [neoVarURL] "https://www.google.com"

BeginJS
jsVarURL= $rootScope.neoVarURL;
window.open(jsVarURL,'_blank');
EndJS

Of course you can set [neoVarURL] anywhere else in your App; just make sure it is setup as a global (not local) variable.

To learn more about variables, read the Help file ... and search the General NeoAppBuilder Discussion Forum.
