Open external link from feature layer

VojtěchBlažek1 — Mon, 04 Jan 2016 08:40:39 GMT

Hi,

I'am trying to make JS application - I want to open link in new window without making info or pop-up window.

I've got feature layer, where one atributte is URL, where are stored diferent links.

Something like on click function.

I heard something about ajax(?), but I'm new in Javascript and don't know where (or how) to start.

Thanks for advance

Vojta

Maybe u can use some of this...

var strWindowFeatures = "location=yes,height=570,width=520,scrollbars=yes,status=yes"; var URL = "https://www.linkedin.com/cws/share?mini=true&url=" + location.href; var win = window.open(URL, "_blank", strWindowFeatures);

Vojta,

Does the attribute field have a full url (i.e. http://www.someserver/something)?

Vojtěch,

How are you wanting people to get to activate the link if you are not wanting to use a popup info window?

Hi Vojta,

Attach "click" event handler with FeatureLayer:

 on(featureLayer, "click", function(evt){
      var url = evt.graphic.attributes["urlFieldName"];
      var windowFeatures = "menubar=yes,location=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes";
      if(url) window.open(url,'featureInfoWindow', windowFeatures );
 });

Hopefully this help.
