Image as link - odd behavior

mdslup · Post by **mdslup** » Fri Oct 26, 2018 12:33 am

Here is my DITA code to turn an image into a link.

<xref
href="https://www.google.com"
format="html"
scope="external">
<image
href="images/google-play-badge.png"
id="image_oqh_nfz_4fb"/>
</xref>

In the generated HTML, clicking the image opens the link in a new tab/window, which is what I want. But, in the current window, it opens a large version of the image. I traced this back to a javascript event listener that is added by jquery-3.1.1.min.js.

How can I disable the behavior of opening a large tab in the current window, while maintaining the functionality of opening the link in a new tab?

Thanks.

That's a relief actually...I was afraid that I'd forgotten how to do basic editing

Thanks for letting me know. If a nightly build becomes available that fixes this bug, can you please let me know?

Hi,

Just wanted to let everyone know that this was fix in oXygen 20.1, and it's of course also fixed in the newly released oXygen 21.

Best wishes,
