Disable 'Full Report' option in Report Link?
I have a report viewable by EOTI. It's embedded in an iframe version of a form in edit view. The purpose is to allow a client to edit fields of their own client record, based on a link sent to them ...

Qrew LegendRather than try to fight your way to suppress that full report, how about if you go into their EOTI Role and hide every single table and land them either on a blank dashboard as their default dashboard page or a dashboard page with some kind a message on it. That way if they escape out of your iframe and hit the home button at least they won't see anything.

- Mark,
Thanks for the quick reply. And I'm assuming from your response that the 'Full Report' link can't be suppressed? Or at least not easily?
It took me a minute to digest your idea, but yeah.... that's perfect. Done and done. The best solution would definitely be having the ability to turn off that link, and having searched the history of comments, it seems that I'm not the only one that feels that way. Until that's an option though, your solution at least gets me where I need to go. Thank you very much sir!!

------------------------------ - I don't know of any native way but you could do this with JavaScript and you may or may not need to use the image on load technique. As long as you do not expect your form to change much or you are fine updating the code if something does change this would work fine.
JavaScript isn't really fully supported by QuickBase so this is kind of a use at your own risk type of thing. It may work today and not work next month, but I think that risk is low considering this is just hiding an element. Still needs to be said.
The fastest way to see this work with just the console is as follows(in Chrome):
- Load your form/home page with the embedded report
- Hover over "Full Report", right click, "inspect", Chrome will open dev console and highlight the related element
- Right click that element in console, Copy > Copy JS Path
- Click Console
- Paste in what you copied and add on .style.display = "none" to the end. Example: document.querySelector("#tdf_63 > div > table > tbody > tr.Toolbar.ui-widget-header > td > table > tbody > tr > td.ActionsBar.FS-Tool-B.EmbeddedReport.DisplayNone > a.Tipsified").style.display = "none"
That hides just the Full Report text button. If you want the entire line hidden(Grid Edit, Email, More, etc) just do exactly what I did above except select the parent to the element I mentioned. If you want to remove the option from the dom that is also possible to do. Hiding it there is the possibility that a knowledgeable user could just unhide it. If you need to do this instead you will want to make the child that needs to be removed a variable named lets say elem, and then do elem.parentNode.removeChild(elem) and that will remove it from the dom completely.
If anything here did not make sense or if you have more questions feel free to ask.
