beennn Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Is it possible to stop a page within a page from sending you to the internal pages page? So, you have your main page, page 1. which inside contains page 2. Inside page 2 there are links which you can use to navigate, however when you right click a link inside page 2 and click open in new tab/window, it opens page 2 alone without being inside page 1 is it possible to have it so it keeps inside page 1 when you open it in a new tab/window? any help is much appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I can't understand the concept of "new tab" or "new window" inside a frame Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beennn Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 sorry, i mean within a frame, when you use links within that frame; if you were to choose open in new tab or window, if takes the page your navigating to,, and displays it on its own, without the page the frame was in being carried over too is it possible to keep it within the frame at all times? having trouble explaining what i mean >.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 If the user intends to open the link in a new window, it's going to open in a new window. It won't replace the page, nor should it open inside the frame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beennn Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 but is it possible to make it stay inside the frame? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 No. It's a usability feature. The users should always be the one to decide where they want the links to open. Wouldn't you be annoyed if you selected "open in a new window" on a link and it stayed in the same place instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beennn Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 I dont mean that >.< Just so when they click open in new tab or window; it does open in a new tab or window, however its still inside the frame on the page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 The content inside the frame shouldn't disappear if you open a new window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescientist Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 I think he is wanting it so that when you open a new window, it should open the link in a new window in the context of the current frame (i.e. the current page would be the base of the new window). basically it should just copy the current page in the new window, but with the link defining the actual content inside said frame/window.
