Open URL action in same browser

helen_pip — Thu, 07 Sep 2017 09:45:34 GMT

Dear Qlikview user

I was wondering if anyone knows if it is possible to open a URL action in the same browser?

Background:

I am looking into adopting the document chaining technique so I am researching the advantages and disadvantages of both Open URL V's Open Qlikview Document actions

The problems I have come up with so far is that "Open Qlikview Document" opens the second document in AjaxClient and I want it to open in IE Plugin. I have tried changing setting on the document itself, but cannot get round this issue.

Hence the original question. If I can get Open URL to open in the same window, then I get around the Ajax problem

Any help or advice woiuld be greatly appreciated

Kind Regards

Helen

Dear Anil

I made a setting change on the QEMC on the second document to be opened. I unticked Full browser and small device

Cool, What you meant by Second Document Opened?

Hello Anil

For document chaining I have App1 and place an action "Open Qlikview Document" and tick in "same window" on a text object in order to open App2 (Second Document)

I then go to the access point and although the action works my App2 opens in Ajax Client, not IE Plugin

Some kindly told me that I should untick "Full browser and small device" for App2 on the QEMC (See image above), but the problem of being opened in Ajax client still exists

Therefore I considered going down the route of Open URL instead, but wanted to know if you can open URL in the same browser

At this time I am unsure which technique is best to use

Kind Regards

Do you install the IE plugin in Access point which is available in the right corner of top position of your browser.
