Is it possible to Run Javascript before opening resource links?

Feb 28, 2019

Hello, 

As many before me have encountered my resource links to web pages are not opening in new tabs/windows.  Instead they are opening over the course.  I know you can run java script in the triggers... but can you run it or set it to run before a resource page opens?

Hey there, KJBrandi. There's not a way to attach another trigger to an existing player tab.

Would it be possible in your course to instead trigger a lightbox slide containing links to your resources rather than using the default Resources tab? The lightbox slide could then have an "execute JavaScript" trigger at the timeline's start.

If you test that, let us know how it works!
