    Otherwise, you could use the JavaScript I provided to another user, which removes the download attribute from the attachments, so that they continue to open in a new tab.

Hello,


I would like to know where I can add the code to change the functionality.

After publishing your project, find the main HTML file that launches the course (you may need to unzip if it's a zipped SCORM course). Then before the closing </body> tag, add some <script></script> tags and add the JavaScript in between them, and save the file.
