This will open the link in a new tab in Chrome and Firefox  and possibly more browsers I haven t tested   var popup     window open  about blank     blank       the about blank is to please Chrome  and  blank to please Firefox popup location    newpage html     It basically opens a new empty tab  and then sets the location of that empty tab  Beware that it is a sort of a hack  since browser tab window behavior is really the domain  responsibility and choice of the Browser and the User   The second line can be called in a callback  after you ve done some AJAX request for example   but then the browser would not recognize it as a user-initiated click-event  and may block the popup

You can t directly control this  because it s an option controlled by Internet Explorer users   Opening pages using Window open with a different window name will open in a new browser window like a popup  OR open in a new tab  if the user configured the browser to do so   EDIT   A more detailed explanation   1  In modern browsers  window open will open in a new tab rather than a popup   2  You can force a browser to use a new window     popup     by specifying options in the 3rd parameter  3  If the window open call was not part of a user-initiated event  it   ll open in a new window   4  A    user initiated event    does not have to the same function call     but it must originate in the function invoked by a user click  5  If a user initiated event delegates or defers a function call  in an event listener or delegate not bound to the click event  or by using setTimeout for example   it loses it   s status as    user initiated     6  Some popup blockers will allow windows opened from user initiated events  but not those opened otherwise   7  If any popup is blocked  those normally allowed by a blocker  via user initiated events  will sometimes also be blocked  Some examples     Forcing a window to open in a new browser instance  instead of a new tab   window open  page php        width 1000      The following would qualify as a user-initiated event  even though it calls another function   function o      window open  page php         button   addEvent  click   o     The following would not qualify as a user-initiated event  since the setTimeout defers it   function g      setTimeout o  1     function o      window open  page php         button   addEvent  click   g

It is sometimes useful to force the use of a tab  if the user likes that  As Prakash stated above  this is sometimes dictated by the use of a non-user-initiated event  but there are ways around that    For example       theButton   button   click  function event         post  url  data       always  function  response           window open  newurl   response    blank                    will always open  newurl  in a new browser window since the  always  function is not considered user-initiated  However  if we do this       theButton   button   click  function event       var newtab   window open        blank          post  url  data       always  function  response           newtab location   newurl   response                 we open the new browser window or create the new tab  as determined by the user preference in the button click which IS user-initiated  Then we just set the location to the desired URL after returning from the AJAX post  Voila  we force the use of a tab if the user likes that

At the moment  Chrome 39  I use this code to open a new tab    x000D   x000D  window open  http   www stackoverflow com     blank    toolbar yes  location yes  status yes  menubar yes  scrollbars yes    x000D   x000D   x000D    Of course this may change in future versions of Chrome   It is a bad idea to use this if you can t control the browser your users are using  It may not work in future versions or with different settings
