Cocoon 2.1.7 create link with target in menu
Hi,
I am using Cocoon 2.1.7 and want to create a menu item that opens up a web
page in a new tab or window.
In the generic.xsp i have this code:
<block>
<item>
<xsp:attribute name="href">
<xsp:expr>mypage + "?view=abc"</xsp:expr>
</xsp:attribute>
<i18n:text>ABC</i18n:text>
<xsp:attribute name="target">_new</xsp:attribute>
</item>
</block>
but the generated HTML for the menu has just a href element that points to
the page without a target attribute !?
Anyone knows a work-around to create links in menu items that open up the
link in a new tab or window?
Thanks
Kris

Thanks Thorsten.
Indeed, I have to change the default menu2xhtml.xsl to allow the
transformation of the target attribute.
Thank you for the useful hint on this, it works now like expected.
BRs,

I guess the anove will be transformed by a xsl to html, right? In this
xsl do you allow/match the new target attribute? Seems not.

Thanks Robby for the hint, but the result remains the same...
The target attribute is simply not generated.
Even when I hard code it like
<block>
<item>
<item href="http://www.nabble.com" target="_new">Go to Nabble</item>
</item>
</block>
the link in the menu does not take into account the target attribute. The
generated source of the html is the href without the target.
BRs,
Kris

Can you try to put them in a order so that all xsp:attributes come
first?
<block>
<item>
<xsp:attribute name="href">
<xsp:expr>mypage + "?view=abc"</xsp:expr>
</xsp:attribute>
<xsp:attribute name="target">_new</xsp:attribute>
<i18n:text>ABC</i18n:text>
</item>
</block>
I'm not sure if this is the cause but I know that xslt for instance
throws an exception when you add childnodes after attributes.
Cheers,
Robby Pelssers

Hi,
I am using Cocoon 2.1.7 and want to create a menu item that opens up a
web
page in a new tab or window.
In the generic.xsp i have this code:
<block>
<item>
<xsp:attribute name="href">
<xsp:expr>mypage + "?view=abc"</xsp:expr>
</xsp:attribute>
<i18n:text>ABC</i18n:text>
<xsp:attribute name="target">_new</xsp:attribute>
</item>
</block>
but the generated HTML for the menu has just a href element that points
to
the page without a target attribute !?
Anyone knows a work-around to create links in menu items that open up
the
link in a new tab or window?
Thanks
Kris
