Does anyone know how to get a list form to display as an aspx page by default instead of as a popup iframe? For example, when a user clicks on a list item, DispForm.aspx opens as part of the same page as the list.

EDIT: I'm working in Visual Studio.

If you go to the List Settings page for that list and choose "Advanced settings," you can set "Launch forms in a dialog?" to "No." Selecting "No" will cause these actions to navigate to the full page.

I'm working in Visual Studio, so would this be somewhere in the Schema.xml file for the list? – Moray May 28 '12 at 14:22

You need to set NavigateForFormsPages="TRUE" in the schema. Found the answer here: stackoverflow.com/questions/6125309/… – Danny Jessee May 28 '12 at 14:29
Found that questions about a minute before you posted it, but thanks! – Moray May 28 '12 at 14:35
@Danny- some times when I choose this setting it has no effect. Why in some lists does the item open in a new window and others still retain the pop-up? – user8962 Jun 19 '12 at 17:40
