Hyper link from one report to another report in same window doesn't change

[Scott]

I am utilizing the HTML5 Viewer with ASP .Net MVC.  I have a page with a table of records.  Each record has a link to a corresponding report for that row.  It opens this report in a new window.  No problems there.  The problem occurs when I click on another row or on a hyperlink within the open report that links to another report.  Either method attempts to open the new report in the same window.  The URL will change and the screen will appear to try to reload; however, the same report is displayed.  

This same scenario happens in Firefox, Chrome, and IE.

If I copy the new URL from the address bar of the browser and paste in a new tab or window, it opens the expected document.

Any idea why I cannot load a new report in the same window as the existing report?

Thanks,
Scott

Hello Scott,

We've already answered your inquiry in your support thread, but we will share the answer here as well for anyone concerned.

Try to set the persistSession option of the report viewer widget to false, to cease the preserving of the report between requests and check if it resolves the issue.

In case you need further help, please zip and attach a runnable sample project exhibiting the issue to your support thread, so we can debug it locally and advise accordingly.
