So I'm new to Web Development, and I wanted to know if there was a way to have a hyperlink in HTML, to be opened in a new tab, once clicked on. From there, I would want to have another hyperlink open in that exact same new tab that was opened for the previous hyperlink. Basically I have two hyperlinks that open in the new same tab, versus having the hyperlinks opening in each of their own new tabs. Currently I've been programing this webpage in HTML. Also this is my own project, not school related!

To make a link open in a new tab, include target="_blank" in the properties of the a tag:
<a target="_blank" href="xxx.html"> sometext</a>

I want to put a link to a external page, but when I click on the link, which is meant to open a new tab, the original tab gets refreshed too while opening the new tab, I want to stop the refreshing since it has a session open and refreshing it leads to the login form of my page, is there any solution to this?
<a style='text-decoration: none;' target="_blank" href="(link to
the external web page)" >Visit</a>
I've been searching and I just can't find a way to fix this, not sure if I missed something or if I'm not searching with the right words, is just a normal <a href='extlink'> link that leads to another web page
I were told that could be a javasccript attached to the link, and that was the issue, I was using a class that refreshes the tab onclick without realizing,thanks for the suggestion
Why do we have to write Visit link?
Or for instance, in markdown, why do we have to write link, and in that there is no way to open a new tab unless you use HTML.
So why isn't there a solution so that all links in markdown pages open in a new tab?
Thank you.
adding the target="_blank" attribute to your anchor tag will open the link in a new tab if that's what you're after.
<a src="www.google.com" target="_blank">Link</a>
So, I started learning HTML few days ago, it's really easy and I understand those basics, but I didn't found the thing I currently need... So, I made a Link on my website, and when I press that link it will go to my site for example if I click "Start" it will go to "_blank" where the new things comes. So when I press that link to go there, how do I make the code that will load in that new tab, I still don't understand it. Hope you understand what I want, thank you for your help.
target="_blank" Opens the linked document in a new window or tab
target="_self" Opens the linked document in the same frame as it was clicked (this is default)
target="_parent" Opens the linked document in the parent frame
target="_top" Opens the linked document in the full body of the window
Source: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_target.asp
The tag defines a hyperlink
Consider this example,
Visit W3Schools.com!
The "target" attribute specifies where to open the linked document, it can take any of the values in (_blank, _parent, _self, _top, framename) when it's value is '_blank' then the hyperlink will open in the new Tab.
Then "href" attribute will consist of the actual hyperlink, that is a URL that will open in the new page.
As you want a hyperlink for your own website, you need to give a link that works & would be served by your web server (Fro Ex., Apache). You need to put the web pages in the websever var/www/ folder if your server is linux with Apache webserver. Similarly. If you give any other website link as href, then that web page will be loaded.
The following <a> element would open www.example.com in a different tab/window than the current one:
Link
However, users would be brought to the newly opened tab/window. How can I open URL in new window/tab without leaving the current one?
Use:
Link
Open in current tab:
title
Open in another tab:
title
Hope this help =))
In my code, after click on a link I'm open a pdf file in new tab, But after second click if that file is already open then instead of open in new tab I want to redirect to open tab of that file.
My code:
<span style="margin-left:10%;">Broucher</span>'
As shown in above tab I'm set the target attribute "_blank", So it opens the link always in new tab. But I want after first time it redirect to first open tab only.
Use target="_new" instead. This will open the link in the same tab
Edit:
_new is not really the best way to do this, as noted in the comment below by Chankey. You can just create a 'custom' value for the target attribute that will allow the link to only open in a specific tab.
http://jsfiddle.net/GTr7L/ -> example
just assign a custom name to your target tab, so all the links will be redirected to your custom tab
<span style="margin-left:10%;">Broucher</span>'
(if you use "_new" another standard "_new" link will overwrite your pdf tab).
