Hi Adam,

I ahve copied your code into my jquery.fmatter.js file, and have included the formatoptions in my colmodel (using "_new" as my target), but the url still opens in the same window, and not a new one.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    $.fn.fmatter.link = function(el,cellval,opts) {
        //begin url target mod : adam@PigsLipstick.com
        var op = {target:opts.target };
        var target = “”;
        if(!isUndefined(opts.colModel.formatoptions)) {
            op = $.extend({},op,opts.colModel.formatoptions);
            target = 'target=' + op.target;
        }
        //end url target mod (note inclusion of target variable in url)
        if(!isEmpty(cellval)) {
            $(el).html(”<a ” + target + ” href=\\”" + cellval + “\\”>” + cellval + “</a>”);
        }else {
            $(el).html(isValue(cellval) ? cellval : “”);
        }
    };

and then the corresponding piece in the colModel to specify the formatoptions:

{name:'link', index:'link', width: 300, editable:true,editoptions:{size:45}, formatter:'link',formatoptions:{target:”_new”}}

Best Regards,

Adam

Thank you Adam - good addition. Will be added.

I did this for jqGrid 3.5, but it should be the same for other versions.  This is a small hack to jquery.fmatter.js to allow specification of a target when using links in a grid:

and then the corresponding piece in the colModel to specify the formatoptions:

{name:'link', index:'link', width: 300, editable:true,editoptions:{size:45}, formatter:'link',formatoptions:{target:”_new”}}

Best Regards,

Adam
