Page with in the vf page

I have embeded custom vf page into one of the object lay out. Let's say I am trying to perform Edit action, Then edit page is being open as sub page with in the actual page. Instead, How can we open that page as a new page(Unlike subpage with in the actual page).

Thanks In Advance.

If you are using a CommandLink for calling the edit action, try setting the "target" attribute to "_blank". This may let you open the page in a new Tab.
Also you can try usng javaScript's window.open() method, here also set the target attribute to "_blank" and you will be good to go.
If using commandbutton, try something like this:

Hi Veenesh,
Thank you for your update. I am trying to perform those actions in service cloud console. There it's not working fine. If i don't use console then everything is fine. Do you have any suggestions on how to resolve it in service cloud console.

Have you tried using Console's "openPrimaryTab()"  and "openSubtab()"?
Refer:

I guess this is what you need.
