I have a web application where I have four/five icons in the default page. On click of these icons i am redirecting to some URL in new tab of already opened chromium browser instance using javascript. Below is the javascript code snippet that I am using to launch the URL in new tab of already opened chromium browser instance. Here I am manually clicking the icon
window.open(myURL, '_blank');
But the issue is when I am trying to open the same URL using the same code and programatically triggering the same code to open the URL in new tab, it opes up as a Pop Up but not in a tab. Below is how I am trying to pragmatically open the URL. I am calling the click event of the Icon in the default page using some script rather than manually clicking the icon.
$('#myIconId').click();
If somebody could please help me out. TIA
