Is there HTML code that makes a link open in a new Tab in IE7?

Question

Like if I have a link on a page to http://www.yahoo.com, and I want the browser to open the link not in the same page or a new window, but a new TAB. Is there a variation on "Target=" or something else? Please let me know if you know!

Answer 1

For starters, not all browsers have the tab feature. Tabs are an optional browser specific behaviour that a client configures locally in the browser's own settings and therefore not an HTML/XHTML behaviour. The tag opens a new window only. You can specify your own browser whether to treat links as a new window or a new tab but that's all. It is possible to control more client functions using java but that's a whole other can of worms.

You do comprehend that the objective characteristic has been deprecated for a whilst now via the W3C. whilst it could artwork in a browser the browser manufacturers are under no legal accountability to maintain it that way and your code won't validate under the stern policies with that characteristic in it. Validation won't appear as if a huge situation to you even though it does bypass a protracted way in being seek engine friendly.
