How target="_blank" used in combination with either outputlink or commandlink can be configured to open in a new window or tab? when I use IE browser with default tab settings as " let browser decide how popup should be open as a tab or window" the link is always getting opened in new tab but I want it to be opened in new window. For this I don't want to change browser settings. Is this something possible?
The former will use the settings set forth by the user, while the latter will (should) always open up in a new window. The name attribute is randomized to reduce the chance of a named window already having the same name.
Hi,
Use following,
This will work in IE properly. But in firefox, it will be a new tab.
Check your IE Tab settings;
Tools>Internet Options>General>Tabs>Settings>
