Some attachments open directly in chrome

[ciche...@fater.it]

Hello,
I found that some attachments loaded on the web interface, clicking on the arrow of the "file upload" widget, open directly in a new Chrome tab while others are dowloaded on the local drive.

Could you tell me if it is a Chrome setting, a Windows settings or whatever ?

Thank you.

Hi,

I believe it is due to browser setting.

Generally speaking, picture files (jpg, png ...) and text files (txt, xml, ...) can be displayed in most browsers, and will be the default behavior.

More complex files like video or audio (mpg, flv ...) depends on features or extensions you have.

It makes sense that not all files can be opened in browser.

If you want to force download all files, you can make HTML links like this:

To do this, you will need to make a separate HTML widget + JS widget to inject the HTML code dynamically.

Best regards,
