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.
You can use the following.
window.open(
'https:http://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>
plunkr
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.
You can also add this to your form:
<form ... target="_blank">
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.

Try this
window.open(urlValue, "_system", "location=yes");
Use '_blank'. It will not only open the link in a new tab but the state of the original webpage will also remain unaffected.
Try this code.
<input type="button" value="Open Window"
onclick="window.open('http://www.google.com')">
