I want to always keep my nice Skuid page with a reference table open, and when I click on record links I want them to open in a different/new tab. Is there any way to do this without manually overriding each column in my table with a template containing a custom URL?
Question
Is there an easy way to make all links load in a new browser tab?

+9Peter, Depending on your operating system/browser there is usually a key you can press to do this… on my mac, in chrome, its command + click on the link

Hi Peter, you can try this at the page level by including this javascript snippet in your page. (function(skuid){ var $ = skuid.$; $(function(){ $(‘head’).append( $(‘’) ); }); })(skuid);
+9I added this as a snippet on my page, but it didn’t change the functionality of the links on my page. Links still open in the same tab.

Hmm… I just tried this as an Javascript Resource (type = in-line) and it worked fine.
(function(skuid){ var $ = skuid.$; $(function(){ $('head').append( $('base target="_blank"') ); }); })(skuid);

Also, you should use the Inspect Element feature on your browser to see if this code actually got correctly appended to your page.
+9I see the following code in the script section of my rendered page, but the links still open in the same tab. Perhaps there’s a browser setting that’s overriding this? (function(skuid){ var $ = skuid.$; $(function(){ $(‘head’).append( $(‘base target=“_blank”’) ); }); })(skuid);;

ughhhh the code editor here is messing things up. it’s supposed to be ‘’ is that what you had?
+9No, it wasn’t, but now I’ve changed it to to the following, and now it does work: (function(skuid){ var $ = skuid.$; $(function(){ $(‘head’).append( $(‘’) ); }); })(skuid); Thanks!
