Hi,

I had added one custom report into menu using menu editor. It is working fine. The only problem is that I have to press BACK to go back to my page.

I want to open it into new page. Please advise how can we achieve it.

When i add Javascript in Menu link,

< Java script > <My Host>/<Directory>/h t t p : / / .... Link not found.

Means it add My host and directory to script and convert it into URL. Then try to open it.

Please advise.

Thanks

If you open your page in a new window, you cannot press BACK button because the window is NEW, there is no previous page. But you can add a "Back" link in your custom page and do that by JavaScript. Google "window opener" for more info.

Yes, I do not want "Back" Link to that page. But, I want that the perticular menu item open in new window.

Once finish, I will kill it.

Please advise.

Thanks

Just use this code for a new window in menueditor for field URL:

javascript:void window.open('page_to_open.php')
