How to open an iframed Muse page link in same browser window?

[Deaf_Guy]

See the diagram below.  I have a Muse page iframed on a page.  When I add links to the round buttons and you click on one, the new page (which is not a Muse page) opens in the iframe window.

Using target=blank works as it will then open the non Muse page in a tab.  But what I need to do is have the link open in the same browser window.

Does anyone know how I can integrate some code into Muse to make this happen?  Thanks.

Use target=“_top” or target=“_parent”. This should open the iFrame links in the way you require.

Thank you but here is the catch.  Can I add this inside of Muse before exporting to HTML?  When you add a link inside the Muse software, it only has a check mark that says "open this in a new window" but there's no way to tell it to use top or parent.

You can. It’ll take a bit of work, though. Create your button graphics. Instead of placing them on the page, use the Add Files for Upload option in the file menu. Now go to Object > Insert HTML and add the following, replacing the page/image name and width of the image (that’s optional):

<a href=“yourpage.html” target=“_top”><img src=“assets/imagename.png” width=“40px”></a>

Do this for each button in turn.
