使用javascript在新窗口中打开url

Question

I have tried target="_blank" and other ways so that below window opens in a new page instead of replacing the current page but its not working.

Can someone would be able to help me get this fixed?

This is the code I am using:

$("#yes").click(function() {
  answer();
  setTimeout(function() {
    $.cookie("answered", "yes", {path:"/", expires:730});
    window.location = "http://www.google.com", "_blank"
  }, 2E3)
});

Answer 1

window.open :

Loads a resource into either a new browsing context (such as a window) or one that already exists, depending on the specified parameters.

syntax:

 var windowObjectReference = window.open(strUrl, strWindowName[, strWindowFeatures]); 

Answer 2

You need to use window.open instead:

window.open('url', 'name', 'window settings')

Check this Online Demo and window open documentation

name is optional. Specifies the target attribute or the name of the window. The following values are supported:

• _blank - URL is loaded into a new window. This is default
• _parent - URL is loaded into the parent frame
• _self - URL replaces the current page
• _top - URL replaces any framesets that may be loaded

or name - The name of the window

window settings is optional.

window.open() is a method that you can pass a URL to that you want to open in a new window. For example:

window.open() example:

window.open('http://www.google.com'); //This will open Google in a new window

window.open() can be passed additional parameters. See: window.open tutorial
