Opening the link in another window using jQuery
$(document).ready(function () {
$(".thisClass a").on("click", function(e){
e.preventDefault(); // this prevents going to the original url or default behavior
var changedLink = $(this).attr("href", $(this).attr("href") + "/token=xxxx");
var newUrl = $(changedLink).attr('href');
window.open(newUrl, '_blank');
});
});
// Here is a way to do it with Plain Javascript - i did not test it on all browsers but worked with chrome for example.
// goes in a script.js or in script tags under the </body> element
function changeTheLink() {
event.preventDefault();
var aLink = document.getElementById('theLink');
var theOldLink = aLink.getAttribute("href");
aLink.setAttribute('href', theOldLink + "/token=xxxx");
var theNewLink = aLink.getAttribute("href");
window.open(theNewLink, "_blank");
}
// here is the HTML you owuld have to add an id and an onclick attribute to use this code
<div class="thisClass"><a href="http://thiswebsite.com" id="theLink"
onclick="changeTheLink()">Here is a link</a></div>
