Web logon page: How to open the HTML5 client in the same tab

Overview

On the Web logon page, when the user clicks on the "Log on" button, the HTML5 client is opened in a new browser's tab.

You can change this behavior and have the HTML5 client to open in the same browser tab as the Web logon page by modifying a JavaScript file.

Modifying the custom.js file

Edit the file "custom.js" file which is stored into the "C:\Program Files (x86)\TSplus\Clients\www" folder. We advise you to use a text editor such as Notepad or Notepad++ (do not use Word).

Add this line:

var openinsamewindow = true;

We recommend you clear your browser's cache after saving the changed JavaScript file.

Modifying the common_applications.js file

If you are using Terminal Service Plus Web Applications Portal feature, then you need to edit a second file. Edit the file "common_applications.js" file which is stored into the "C:\Program Files (x86)\TSplus\Clients\www\software" folder. We advise you to use a text editor such as Notepad or Notepad++ (do *not* use Word).

Search for these lines:

if (childurl != '') {
    child = window.open(childurl, childname);
    childrenWindows[childrenWindows.length] = child;
}

And replace them by those lines:

if (childurl != '') {
    window.name = childname;
    location.href = childurl + '#';
}

We recommend you clear your browser's cache after saving the changed JavaScript file.
