使用Javascript从Drupal打开新标签页

Question

I am trying to open a new tab when a certain menu link is clicked in Drupal. One way I thought about doing is embedding a Javascript code within the content of that page. However, that does not seem to work.

Specifically, I place this code inside the HTML content of that page:

<script>

$(document).ready(function() {
  var popup  = window.open("about:blank", "_blank"); // the about:blank is to please Chrome, and _blank to please Firefox
popup.location = 'http://google.com';
});

</script>

Is there another way of achieving this? To clarify, I still want the menu link to navigate Drupal to whatever page is assigned to it. However, I also need a new tab to open upon the click.

Answer 1

A much easier method for what you are trying to do would be to install a module, such as Menu Target . In the menu item you want to be opened in a new tab you just need to click on the 'Open this link in a new window' checkbox.

There are other modules like Menu attributes , but I think the first one would work better for what you are trying to accomplish.
