same hyperlink targets

[karimali831]

Hi

 

I want all hyperlink targets to be "_top" in a specific directory.

Not sure if I can do this with JS or anything.. but thought I'd ask

 

Thanks.

what do you mean? Are you saying you want all "/xyz/somePage.html" links to have target="_top" attribute?  Sure, you can do this with javascript.  Easiest way is with a library like jQuery:

 

<script type='text/javascript' src='https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.0/jquery.min.js'></script>
<script type='text/javascript'>
$(document).ready(function() {
  // change /xyz/ to your directory
  $("a[href*='/xyz/']").attr('target','_top');
});
</script>

 

You can do something similar in Prototype or some other js library if you are already using one on your site (syntax will be slightly different). Or if you don't want to use a framework, you can do it with pure js with getElementsByTagName(), a for loop, getAttribute(), an if condition, and setAttribute().

 

Or you could of course just hardcode target="_top" in all your relative link tags...

Thanks for this but I need one condition to it:

 

If the hyperlink has this included: "?site=" then every link must have "_top" as target.

Can I use this condition ?

Indeed you can, see http://api.jquery.com/category/selectors/attribute-selectors/

Can you or someone please amend Crayon Violent's code to apply this condition?

I will learn this way, thank you!

No you won't.  The only thing you will learn by having people just hand stuff to you is laziness.  Use your brain.  I provided you with code that will look for /xyz/ in the url.  How hard do you think it really is to replace "/xyz/" with "?site=" ? I assure you, it is not hard at all, and if you weren't so busy trying to freeload, you would see it easy enough.

Read the link I provided or quit trying to program.
