IE Plugin - go to url

[#1]

Hi, new user here. I am wondering if there is an easy way to redirect a user to a url when they click a button.

Right now, I have a simple start page with links to my QlikView pages: qvp://myserver/mypage1.qvw

I want to be able to put a button on the page that brings them back to the start page: http://server/QlikView.

So far, all I can seem to do is get it to open a new window with that start page, but I don't know how to make that same window go back to the start page.

Thanks,

Tom

What do you use at this moment? We use a button with an URL as application link:

='http://server/QlikView'

I had a button with Application = "iexplore.exe" and parameter = "http://server/QlikView"

On your suggestion, I changed the button so Application = "http://server/QlikView" and parameter = "". This opens the start page in a new tab in the same IE window, which is much better than it was before.

If there's a way to get it to use the same button that would be great, but this works well enough if not.

Thanks for the help!

I had the same problem when we started.

I developed the menu application in EXCEL with the qvp://...... as hyperlinks, published it to html and made that html file the default document on the QlikView web site.

To return to the menu from an application the user just needs to click on the IE Back button.
