Links within Status HTML

Hello!

I'm playing around with my Status HTML again and am trying clickable links to either another HTML page or to a bookmark on the current HTML page. The problem I'm having though is that a simple left-click isn't working ... I have to right-click, OPEN to get the link to work. The page only acts this way inside the POS. When opened outside the POS in IE or Chrome, the links work fine.

What am I missing?

RE: Links within Status HTML

the javascript file global.js disables clicking and interaction from the status html page. You could try editing the javascript,, or possibly even removing it from the status html page.

RE: Links within Status HTML

Upon reading the customize guide, I found this...

This HTML pane can also display a non-interactive Web page. The HTML status bar can only be used to display information; users cannot interact with the status bar because the transaction grid always has the focus.

So now I'm going to try and see if I can get it to work with a FireEvent and 'onmouseup'

You can try to use QSBridge.ShowHTML

This will only work if you want to open the page where the transaction screen is....

Here is a a sample function you could link to

function openPage(url)
{
   var QSRules = qsBridge.RequestQSRules();
   if (QSRules == null)
       return(0);

       qsBridge.ShowHTML(url);
}

I haven't tested this but it should work

***UPON TESTING I COULDNT GET IT TO WORK. I WILL UPDATE IF I HAVE A WORKING SOLUTION. SORRY***
