Use one of these as per your requirements.

Open the linked document in a new window or tab:

 <a href="xyz.html" target="_blank"> Link </a>

Open the linked document in the same frame as it was clicked (this is default):

 <a href="xyz.html" target="_self"> Link </a>

Open the linked document in the parent frame:

 <a href="xyz.html" target="_parent"> Link </a>

Open the linked document in the full body of the window:

 <a href="xyz.html" target="_top"> Link </a>

Open the linked document in a named frame:

 <a href="xyz.html" target="framename"> Link </a>

See MDN

Set the  target  attribute of the link to  blank   lt a href  quot   quot  target  quot  blank quot  rel  quot noopener noreferrer quot  gt Link lt  a gt   Edit  for other examples  see here  http   www w3schools com tags att a target asp  Note  I previously suggested blank instead of  blank because  if used  it ll open a new tab and then use the same tab if the link is clicked again  However  this is only because  as GolezTrol pointed out  it refers to the name a of a frame window  which would be set and used when the link is pressed again to open it in the same tab   Security Consideration  The rel  quot noopener noreferrer quot  is to prevent the newly opened tab from being able to modify the original tab maliciously  For more information about this vulnerability see these resources   https   dev to ben the-targetblank-vulnerability-by-example https   support detectify com support solutions articles 48001048981-external-links-using-target-blank-
