InfoPath Dev

As you might know InfoPath renders all hyperlinks on SharePoint page with target="_blank", which results in opening a destination URL in a separate tab/window. Here is a simple workaround with use of JavaScript (jQuery) and Tab index. I'm using Tab index to make my link "special" setting absurdly unusual large number. Usually this property not used at all and defaulted to -1 or 0 or 1. The property results in tabindex attribute for . I set it to 11 Add a following JavaScript code to the page, using script editor webpart or any other way. $(document).ready(function(){ $('a[tabindex="11"]').each(function() { $(this).attr('target', '_top'); }); }); It can be written shorter but above will do. That's all!

Thanks so much for posting!

Hi, How I add images / HTML to my post?

Hi - did you not see my reply to your PM? You need to use Internet Explorer and then the rich text editing bar will show up when posting / editing. :)
