Hi Knowledge Managers!
My question is...does anyone have code to redirect URLS/hyperlinks typed with the article body to "default" the "Target" to open in a "New Window"? The current Default is "None" and we've had issues across different browsers and operating systems with URLS NOT opening and simply redirecting to a ServiceNow Home page!
Thanks!
Steph
