If you want to remove URL from the Lookup columns in SharePoint, just copy and paste the following code into the page.
<div id="scriptdiv"></div> <script language="javascript"> var CTXMAX = 5; function RemoveLookupAfterPageLoad() { var table, i = 1, ctx; // Remove lookup links while (i <= CTXMAX) { eval("if(typeof ctx" + i + " != 'undefined') ctx = ctx" + i + "; else ctx = null"); i++; if (!ctx) break; table = document.getElementById(ctx.listName + "-" + ctx.view); if (table) { table = table.parentNode; table.innerHTML = RemoveLookupLinks(table.innerHTML); } } } function CreateDynamicFunction() { // Create a function "ExpGroupCallServerg_GUID" var scriptdiv = document.createElement("div"); var i = 1, funcExpGroup = "", ctx, val; if (browseris.ie) document.getElementById("scriptdiv").appendChild(scriptdiv); while (i <= CTXMAX) { eval("if(typeof ctx" + i + " != 'undefined') ctx = ctx" + i + "; else ctx = null"); i++; if (!ctx) break; funcExpGroup = funcExpGroup + "function ExpGroupCallServerg_{0}(arg, context){\n" + "globalArg_g_{0} = arg; globalContext_g_{0} = context;\n" + "setTimeout(\"WebForm_DoCallback('ctl00$m$g_{0}',globalArg_g_{0},Interceptor,globalContext_g_{0},ExpGroupOnError,true)\", 0);\n}\n"; funcExpGroup = funcExpGroup.replace(/\{0\}/g, ctx.view.toLowerCase().replace("{", "").replace("}", "").replace(/-/g, "_")); } scriptdiv.innerHTML = " <script" + " defer>" + funcExpGroup + "</" + "script>"; if (!(browseris.ie)) document.getElementById("scriptdiv").appendChild(scriptdiv); scriptdiv.style.display = "none"; } CreateDynamicFunction(); //Ajax function interceptor function Interceptor(htmlToRender, groupName) { ExpGroupReceiveData(RemoveLookupLinks(htmlToRender), groupName); } //Function which removes links using regex function RemoveLookupLinks(htmlToRender) { return htmlToRender.replace(/<a[^>]*RootFolder=\*[^>]*>([^<]*)<\/a>/gi,"$1"); } //Queue up the function to execute after page load _spBodyOnLoadFunctionNames.push("RemoveLookupAfterPageLoad"); </script>
Here’s a simpler solution for use in forms. Add this to an onload/document.ready function
$(“td.ms-formbody[id$=’SPFieldLookup’] a”).each(function (i,n) { $(n).replaceWith(“” + $(n).text() + “”); });
Thanks for sharing this! Is it possible to turn this on for only a few columns? LIke if I have 5 columns that lookup from a list, adn I only want 2 of them to be links, can I do this wht the code?
