Hello.
I have followed the instructions in "Inserting Topic Popups" in the Flare online help (https://help.madcapsoftware.com/flare20 ... Popups.htm). The resulting link in my HTML 5 output simply displays the "popup" content in the same window. It acts as a hyperlink.
All suggestions as to why this is happening and how to fix the problem will be gratefully received.

Re: Popup doesn't pop up
I've detailed a workaround (riffing on some other people's work) at viewtopic.php?f=9&t=20925#p125228. It involves adding some JavaScript and replacing target="_popup" on the <a> tag with a MadCap class:
This is still working for us a few years later, and after many Flare updates.
Code: Select all
