The following code will modify all electronic file links, such as PDF documents, to open using ElectronicFile.aspx instead of DocView.aspx in Laserfiche WebLink 11.x

1. Open Browse.aspx in a text editor, copy the code below and paste it right above the </body> element.

<script>
(function() {

    var proxied = window.XMLHttpRequest.prototype.send;
	var sent = false;
    window.XMLHttpRequest.prototype.send = function() {
		sent = true;
        var pointer = this
        var intervalId = window.setInterval(function(){
			console.log('Ready State: ' + pointer.readyState);
                if(pointer.readyState != 4){
                        return;
                }
                clearInterval(intervalId);
				if(sent)
					transform_links();
				sent = false;			

        }, 1);
        return proxied.apply(this, [].slice.call(arguments));
    };
	
	// After initial load, observe the table that contains the links for any additions due to scrolling
	var t = document.getElementsByClassName('p-datatable-table')[0];
	var observer = new MutationObserver(entryname_column_changes);
	observer.observe(t, {
		attributes: false,
		childList: true, // report added/removed nodes
		subtree: true,   // observe any descendant elements
	});	

})();

function entryname_column_changes(mutations){
  for (let mutation of mutations) {
    if (mutation.type === 'childList') {
      transform_links();
    }
  }
}

function transform_links() {

    //Obtain the EntryNameColumn cells in the browse table and loop through them after a slight delay
    $(".EntryNameColumn").delay(500).each(function () {
		//console.log($(this).text());
        // Find all A elements
		$(this).find("a").each(function() {
			// Get all a elements that have a class value of ElectronicFileIcon
			var ef = $(this).find("div.ElectronicFileIcon");
			// console.log($(this).attr("href"));
			// console.log(ef.length);
			if(ef.length == 1){
				// Get the existing URL
				var old_url = $(this).attr("href");
				// Transform links that have not already been processed
				if(old_url.includes('DocView')){
					// Create a new URL based upon the old one
					var new_url = old_url.replace("DocView","ElectronicFile").replace("?id=","?docid=");
					// Replace old URL with our new one
					$(this).attr("href",new_url);
					// Clone the content which removes all existing event handlers
					var b = $(this).clone();
					// Replace existing content with the clone content which will allow the ElectronicFile link to work.
					$(this).replaceWith(b);
				}
				}
			});
        
    });
};
</script>

2. Save browse.aspx and refresh the page. All of the electronic file links should now open directly.

Hope this helps!
