[html] HTML button opening link in new tab

So this is the simple code for the button to open a certain link

                <button class="btn btn-success" onclick="location.href='http://google.com';"> Google</button>

but it opens it on the same page, I want the link to open on a new tab though.

This question is related to html web

The answer is


Try this

window.open(urlValue, "_system", "location=yes");

With Bootstrap you can use an anchor like a button.

<a class="btn btn-success" href="https://www.google.com" target="_blank">Google</a>

And use target="_blank" to open the link in a new tab.


This worked for me.

onClick={() => {window.open('https://www.google.com/');}}

Try this code.

<input type="button" value="Open Window"
onclick="window.open('http://www.google.com')">

You can use the following.

window.open(
  'https://google.com',
  '_blank' // <- This is what makes it open in a new window.
);

in HTML

 <button class="btn btn-success" onclick=" window.open('http://google.com','_blank')"> Google</button>

Try using below code:

<button title="button title" class="action primary tocart" onclick=" window.open('http://www.google.com', '_blank'); return false;">Google</button>

Here, the window.open with _blank as second argument of window.open function will open the link in new tab.

And by the use of return false we can remove/cancel the default behavior of the button like submit.

Use '_blank'. It will not only open the link in a new tab but the state of the original webpage will also remain unaffected.


You can also add this to your form:

<form ... target="_blank">

If you're in pug:

html
    head
        title Pug
    body
        a(href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank") Example
        button(onclick="window.open('http://www.example.com')") Example

And if you're puggin' Semantic UI:

html
    head
        title Pug
        link(rel='stylesheet' href='https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/semantic.min.css')
    body
        .ui.center.aligned.container
            a(href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank") Example
        .ui.center.aligned.container
           .ui.large.grey.button(onclick="window.open('http://www.example.com')") Example
