how to open a page in new tab on button click in asp.net?

Question

I want to open a page in new tab of browser on button click.

I have searched a lot on google but i couldn\'t find anything.

Here is my button.

Answer 1

Take care to reset target, otherwise all other calls like Response.Redirect will open in a new tab, which might be not what you want.

<asp:LinkButton OnClientClick="openInNewTab();" .../>

In javaScript:

<script type="text/javascript">
    function openInNewTab() {
        window.document.forms[0].target = '_blank'; 
        setTimeout(function () { window.document.forms[0].target = ''; }, 0);
    }
</script>

Answer 2

Why not just call window.open straight from OnClick?

<asp:Button ID="btnNewEntry" runat="Server" CssClass="button" Text="New Entry" OnClick="window.open('New.aspx')" />

Answer 3

try this rather than redirect...

Response.Write("<script>");
Response.Write("window.open('ClickPicture.aspx','_blank')");
Response.Write("</script>");

Answer 4

A simple solution:

<a href="https://www.google.com" target="_blank">
    <button type="button">Open new tab</button>
</a>
