Question

in my code for index.html I use jQuery and have a link with id #button3.

I have used in index.html

 $('#button3 a').attr({
                            target: '_top'
                        });

When I call the index.html from an iframe as a src, the page opens in _self.
I have tried with _blank and still when clicking on the a link it doesn’t open on a new page.

I have this code

 //handle click OK button
                $("#button3").click(function(){
                    if (validate()) {
                        submitQuery();
                    }
                });

                        //set the target attribut to return to the parent

                       $('#button3 a').attr('target', '_parent');

and 2 functions validate and submitQuery don’t call the a link at any time.

Answer 1

The correct set-attribute syntax is:

$('#button3 a').attr('target', '_top');
