Hyperlinks in Action notes

If a link which is embedded in an Action/Note is clicked then the web page in question is called up in the same window, with no back button to return. Clicking whilst holding down CNTL (which in Firefox normally opens the link in a new tab) has no effect. Ideally clicking a hyperlink would actually open either a new window or a new tab.

Developer comments

There are two solutions:

• Open a link in new window.
• Open a link in the same window – let the user to decide whether it should be a new window/tab or existing one (via popup menu from the browser).

The first one is already implemented. When inserting a hyperlink one can choose if it should be open in new window. The editor enables such feature. Try „Edit Link” from popup menu then „Target” tab. The other way is toggle to source eab from browsediting and adjust a hyperlink in html. In the latter case there should be a toolbar visible. User can always choose to open it in new window/tr's popup menu.

Effort: 1 man/day (the second solution)
