Open Payment Gateway In New Window

[century1stop]

Good day,

 

Is it possible to open a new window when payment button is activated? something like adding target="_blank" with ahref. If possible, may I know where this can be done?

 

Thank you.

I think your question is a dev related question for create a gateway Blesta module/plugin.

 

what is the given payment gateway you are working on?

[century1stop]

oh no, definitely not good enough to develop, just trying to modify the standard PayPal gateway

[serge]

since paypal way of working is ever redirection to paypal website, so what do you want to accomplish, can you explain?

 

Ok, I got it, you wanted open new window for paypal while keeping the blesta one, I think it's bad idea, it's not common natural flow shopper would like.

I see, but there are quite a no. of sites that do it

Thanks

something like this con do the job

$this->Form->fieldImage("submit", $this->_("PaypalPaymentsStandard.buildprocess.submit", true),
     array('src' => $button_url,'target' => "_blank")
);

[century1stop]

thanks but it stays on the page

 

below breaks the code

$this->Form->fieldImage("submit", $this->_("PaypalPaymentsStandard.buildprocess.submit", true),
array('src' => $button_url),

        ('target' => "_blank")
);

Your syntax is invalid. You have extra parentheses after $button_url and before 'target'. Try removing those.

thanks but I've done this too

 

$this->Form->fieldImage("submit", $this->_("PaypalPaymentsStandard.buildprocess.submit", true),
        array('src' => $button_url, 'target' => "_blank")
    );

 

and it stays on the page

EDIT:

Correct me if I'm wrong but this seems to be the image ref <img src="paypal_image" alt="pay with paypal"> so if say the code  <img src="paypal_image" alt="pay with paypal" onclick="new.window('$post_to')">, is run, new window will open with a wrong reference. At the same time, original window will go to correct paypal_url as defined in $post_to

 

In other words, the line  ==> array('src' => $button_url, with 'target' => "_blank") will not do anything

 

So if I want a new window during the POST operation, it'll have to be at the point where "FORM" is submitted. May I know which section the target attribute can be included?

I just noticed that naja7host's example of attaching the target to Form::fieldImage is not where you would want to place it.

 

As you've mentioned, a POST request occurs, and any target attributes on links will not have the desired effect.

 

You want to set the target on the form itself:

$this->Form->create($post_to, array('target' => '_blank'));

thanks, worked like a charm
