[javascript] JavaScript: location.href to open in new window/tab?

You can also open a new tab calling to an action method with parameter like this:

   var reportDate = $("#inputDateId").val();
   var url = '@Url.Action("PrintIndex", "Callers", new {dateRequested = "findme"})';
   window.open(window.location.href = url.replace('findme', reportDate), '_blank');
