How to open a URL in a new Tab using JavaScript or jQuery? [duplicate]

How to open a URL in new tab instead of new window programatically?

Solution 1:

Use window.open():

var win = window.open('http://stackoverflow.com/', '_blank');
if (win) {
    //Browser has allowed it to be opened
    win.focus();
} else {
    //Browser has blocked it
    alert('Please allow popups for this website');
}

Depending on the browsers implementation this will work

There is nothing you can do to make it open in a window rather than a tab.

Solution 2:

This is as simple as this.

window.open('_link is here_', 'name'); 

Function description:

name is a name of the window. Following names are supported:

• _blank - URL is loaded into a new tab. This is default.
• _parent - URL is loaded into the parent frame
• _self - URL replaces the current page
• _top - URL replaces any framesets that may be loaded

Solution 3:

if you mean to opening all links on new tab, try to use this jquery

$(document).on('click', 'a', function(e){ 
    e.preventDefault(); 
    var url = $(this).attr('href'); 
    window.open(url, '_blank');
});
