The issue is that you can't trigger a link's default action via a click.
I've worked around it with the following code:
jQuery("table.data_panel tr").each(function(){
if(jQuery("a", this).length == 1) jQuery(this).click(function(e) {
var link = jQuery(this).find("a")[0];
if(!jQuery(e.target).is(":input") && !jQuery(e.target).is("option")
&& !link.onclick) {
window.open(link.href , link.target || "_self");
return false;
} else if(!jQuery(e.target).is(":input") &&
!jQuery(e.target).is("option")
&& link.onclick) {
jQuery(link).click();
return false;
}
});
});
That code is a bit more complex, because it tests for other situations,
but the meat of it, which is:
var link = jQuery("> a", this)
if(!link.onclick) window.open(link.href, link.target || "_self")
else jQuery(link).click()
is what you need. That will open the link with the current target
(defaults to self) if there's no existing click binding, otherwise it'll
fire the click event.
