Hyperlink formula field function window parameters?

Does the HYPERLINK formula field function support new parameters to control how the window is opened in the Summer'06 release? Currently this function opens a new window, but it has been requested to add a parameter so the link opens up in the current window... Is this available now or any time frame or when it will be available? thanks

yes, optional last paramater, try adding

,"_top")

to your HYPERLINK formula to see what how this works.

HYPERLINK
Description: Creates a link to a URL specified that is linkable from the text specified.
Use: HYPERLINK(url, friendly_name [,target])
and replace url with the web address, replace friendly_name with the link text, and, optionally, replace target with the window or frame in which to display the content.

so for target, try:  "_top" , "_self", "_blank", "_parent"

i've only used _top so far.

turbo grid widget example is found in the new appexchange download:

here

There is no documentation except the comments in the code.
Basicaly the dojo + turbo toolkits live in a document , and are included in the scontrol.  The scontrol sets CSS and overrides a few controller methods on the trubo clasic grid widget, to get the look and feel of the app ( theme2).  The callbacks for editing get / set the values into a global array of dynabeans, and when the user clicks save, the changed beans are written back to the opportunity records.

Hello Ron,

Nothing work for me in the Hyperlink Formula notably _self should not open a new window or tab. Tested only on Firefox so far.

Hey Guys,I am using an image field with a hyperlink to automate a process. Is there anyway to do this and still specify the window parameters? Code below:

Code:

HYPERLINK("/servlet/servlet.Integration—lid=01ND00000004iwq&eid=" & Id,  IMAGE( "servlet/servlet.FileDownload–file=015D0000000BKQY", "Button Text"))

Hello RRES,

just change your formula like 
HYPERLINK("/servlet/servlet.Integration—lid=01ND00000004iwq&eid=" & Id,  IMAGE( "servlet/servlet.FileDownload–file=015D0000000BKQY", "Button Text"),'_self')

Otherwise go in the help section for the hyperlink it is updated and it works by now.

Regards
