stop Hyperlink in sharepoint online open new tab
Seems like hyperlinks always opens a new tab, still the link is in the tenant.
william41550 Try _self instead of _target:
a.target="_self";

- It does not work, still opens a new tab when i click on hyperlinks in a ppt , the links are in the same tenant. if i do a quicklink it opens in the same tab , but not hyperlinks in a dokument.
Any suggestions?william41550 That is a default behavior in SharePoint to open the hyperlinks inside the document/PPT content in new tabs.
Unfortunately, you cannot override this behavior even with the modern script editor and HTML/CSS/JS.
Above code and modern script editor will only work for the anchor tags (<a>) / hyperlinks which are directly available in the DOM structure of a SharePoint page - like for links in quick links web part, site navigation links, links in text web part, etc.
