Use HTML to open a link in a new window
“How to open a new window in HTML.”

I was stumped how to do this until someone showed me how. I thought I’d share the info.

The basic HTML tag to link to another website is the anchor tag.
<a href=”http://sitename.com”>Link text here</a>

The HTML to open a new window:

<a href=”http://sitename.com“target=”_blank”>Link text here</a>

There are a number of options you can put in the TARGET parameter of the anchor tag.

* _blank – Opens a new window when the link is clicked on.
* _parent – Will open a link in the original window that called the present window (using _blank)
* _self – Default behaviour of clicking on a link. It opens the link in the current window.
* _top – Allows you to break out of a frame

You now know how to open a new window using HTML
