How can I open a new tab or window when a link is clicked?


I have same ancors/hyperlink in my html file. These point to a new website outside my site. So I want that when the user clicks the link it should open a new tab or window. My website page should not be closed.

How can it be done?


Solution

  • <a href="newpage.htm" target="_blank">Click me to open in a new tab/window</a>
    

    Load the linked document into a new blank window. This window is not named.

    If there is no existing window or frame with the same name as specified in the target, a new window is opened with a name equal to the value of the target.

    Its the setting in a browser that determines whether to open the page in a new tab or in a new window.
