drill-though - want to use same window/tab

[kc9400]

Hi,

We're using IE 10 and Firefox esr 24. Running Cognos 8.4.1 (still).

The problem is that when running reports that have drill-throughs to child reports the page is opening in a new window.

How can I prevent this from happening? I'd like the drill-through to open in the same tab rather than a new window.

I've checked the settings for "open in a new window" these are not checked. Any help or ideas on how to resolve this would be much appreciated.


Also this was not an issue in Firefox esr 17, it has only come about since upgrading to esr 24

I have also tried modifying the about:config in firefox and changing the settings for when new windows etc should and shouldn't open and this didn't resolve it either.

If anyone has any other suggestions I'm all ears.

Thanks, Kc.


Are reports are run through and Iframe, if there is a way to configure the URL to display something other than the link to Cognos Connection that may remove the issue.

Currently the report run and the url is displayed is fine but when you open a drill-through the url displayed displayed can be modified or resubmiited to direct the user to the Cognos connection. Is there a way to customise the url which is displayed?
