Open New Window on Links

I currently am running Orion V 8.10. I would like a new window to open with the node details when a node is clicked. Currently Node details opens in the parent window. I have searched the ASP scripts and other resouce files but have gotten lost in all the function calls and different names. Could you please help? Thank you in advance.

Jason, 

If you are using IE, just hold down your shift key when clicking on the node & a new window will be opened.

 Yes I know this would work but I was hoping to do it through the asp code so that people that did not know this or did not want to go through that trouble could have it open in a new window. Thank you for you input though. I do appreciate it.

The .asp script that opens the node details page is encrypted, so it's all but impossible to change.
Perhaps this should be stickied as a feature request:

 

Create a check box for admins to select "open in new window" when configuring custom views.

 

I will submit that Ticket sometime soon. Thank you for you response. 

You can find 01-AllNodes.Resource or 01-GroupedNodes.Resource then add little code.
Example for 01-GroupedNodes.Resource

Before

<td class="Property" width="100%"><a <%=SQLResource.GetProperty("NodeParamString")%> href="/NetPerfMon/View.asp?View=NodeDetails&NetObject=N:<%=SQLResource.GetProperty("NodeID")%>"><%=SQLResource.GetProperty("Caption")%></a> </td>


After

<td class="Property" width="100%"><a <%=SQLResource.GetProperty("NodeParamString")%> href="/NetPerfMon/View.asp?View=NodeDetails&NetObject=N:<%=SQLResource.GetProperty("NodeID")%>"target="_blank" onclick="window.open(this.href,this.target); return false"><%=SQLResource.GetProperty("Caption")%></a> </td>

We are trying to do something similar.  We are trying to have a link on the maps launch a information page ( like "Engineering Notes") in a new window.  Has anyone gotten this to work before?

Have you tried the suggestion from Gob? Assuming your "Engineering Notes" launch as expected, his sugggestion should work to have it open in a new window. You'll just have to modify the correct resource file but the modification should still be the same.

I have been looking at the resource files and Gob's suggestions.  The trick (for me at least) is trying to figure out how to do this with a link embeded in a map.  Does anyone know the resource file that formats the maps?

1. Do you have a link on the map that currently launches the "Engineering Notes"?
2. What's the name of the resource that you're using to display the map? Assuming it's "Network Map", that can be located in the (web site root)\NetPerfMon\Resources\7-1-NetworkMaps
