How to open all window.open onclick functions in parent
In my project there are several div elements that contain onclick events like so:
<div id='main'>
<div onclick='window.open("/folder/file.php", "_self")'>
Content
</div>
<div onclick='window.open("/folder/file.php", "_self")'>
Content
</div>
<div onclick='window.open("/folder/file.php", "_self")'>
Content
</div>
<div onclick='window.open("/folder/file.php", "_self")'>
Content
</div>
</div>
The issue i have now is, that this page can be opened in the normal browser window and also within a popup. If this page is opened within the popup i would like all of those onclick links to be opened within the parent window.
Is there a way to accomplish that with javascript or maybe even with jquery?

Define your own function to open the URL, and have it check whether the window is a popup.
function my_open(url) {
if (window.opener) { // We're in a popup
window.opener.location = url;
} else {
window.location = url;
}
}
Then use onclick='my_open("/folder/file.php")'
