Fully Functional Navigation in Online Help
(SWM-30906)
This update resolves an issue where users opening online help from the FlexNet Operations portals were unable to navigate back to previous pages. The help content opened in a special browser window that did not include standard navigation controls such as the Back button, causing inconvenience and repeated searches. This affected users in the following scenarios:
| • | Users performing a search within the help content and needing to review multiple results. |
| • | Any situation where users needed to return to the previous help page after navigating forward. |
Root Cause
The help content was being opened in a modified browser window that intentionally removed standard navigation controls. Modern browsers, especially Chrome, no longer allow full navigation features in such pop-up windows. As a result, users had no Back button available when viewing help this way.
Fix Implemented
The help content is now opened in a new browser tab instead of a pop-up window. A new tab automatically includes full browser navigation options such as Back, Forward, and Refresh. Users can now easily move between help pages, return to search results, and explore topics without repeating searches.
