open child record in new window

To make the child record open on a new tab, you can hide the View option on the embedded (hide the eyeball) and instead give the user a button to click.

URLRoot() & "db/" & [_DBID_UNIQUE_ORDER_S]
& "?a=dr&rid="& [Record ID#]

(you will need to set your own table name)

I do not know how to cause that to pop up in anything other than a regular tab.

But you can put this on the pop up extra tab form to let to user close the tab.

I have not tested this code on all browsers.  It should work in Chrome, you will need to test other Browsers that the users will be using.



var text URL = "JavaScript:window.open('','_parent','');window.close();";

var text Image = "<img src=https://images.quickbase.com/si/48/832-close.png>";

"<a href=" & $URL & ">" & $Image & "</a>"

Thank you. I made a button with the formula but it didn't make it open in a new tab. It opened the same way it would if you clicked the eyeball.
I am using Chrome.
