When the user receives an email that contans a URL, the notes client turns the url into a hotspot. The hotspot has the target set to _TopWhen they click on the link, it opens within the notes client instead of opening in the defined browser (set in the location settings as IE)
If I edit the hotspot, and remove the target or change it to something else, it opens correctly in IE.
Why does it open within the notes client? The location settings should force the url to be opened in IE
Subject: RE: URL Link in an email that has “_Top” as target opens in notes client
but Notes should use the target top level window in the browser of my choice, surely.
If I have instructed Notes to use MSIE as my browser it should respect my wishes. Allowing a sender to dictate my choice of browser by including _top doesn’t seem reasonable…
Worse still, Notes seems to become confused by this behaviour. We have found some https links that include a _top frame reference break with an “An error occurred during the SSL handshake” until you change the browser settings to Notes with IE.
