How to open a link in new tab using javascript

Question

I am working on a website, in which I have to open a url from backend. I am using c# now. My problem is that I want to open link in new tab instead of new window.

My code is here:-

string url = ppHref.ToString();

string newScript = "<script language='javascript'>window.open('" + ppHref.ToString() + "', '_blank');</script>";

ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript(this.GetType(),"OpenUrl", newScript);

Can Anybody tell me how to open this url in new tab. I don't like pop ups so I don't wanna use window.open(). Please help me.

Thanks in Advance

This works for me, but open one extra blank tab, just need to return false at the end of onclick event. – Asad kamran Dec 20 '14 at 05:00

Chrome is blocking a popup when I'm trying this – Valentin V Oct 27 '15 at 16:59
@Valentin You need to allow the pop-up blocker in chrome browser settings – Shaik Thameem Sep 05 '19 at 11:17

You can use:

window.open(url,'_target')

_target opens the page in next tab.

Html Code :

<button onclick="OpenInNewTab();" type="submit">

Javascript Code :

function OpenInNewTab(url) {
    var win = window.open(url, '_blank');
    win.focus();
}

Change Your Browser Setting.

In FireFox ,

Go To Options -> Tab setting and Check "Open New Windows in a New Tab instead" setting.

This Solution Worked For me .
