Dynamically set link of button & open two links

Hey everyone,

I have set up the following:
A light box with user input field and a button.
I want to achieve the following:

  1. on button click a check is activated whether the input field have a value and whether its valid (figured out how to do that with on change function and a validity check)
  2. if the value is valid I would like to open a link that contains information of the inputfields
  3. I would like that link to open in a new tab
  4. At the same time I would like the lightbox to close

The issue is that with location.to you can’t open a new link and I can’t figure out how to close the lightbox and dynamically generate the link without using location.to

Any help is much appreciated!

Thanks!

Joern

Hi Aleks,

I am aware of the link method and the close method. But how would I trigger them to achieve the above scenario?
