目标的jQuery属性用法

Question

Can anyone see why the following code is not causing my url top open up in a new window, ie:

        $(location).attr({
            href: toLoad,
            target: "_blank"
        });

where toLoad is my url.

Looking at the view source, all seems fine and basically looks like:

<a target="_blank" title="" href="http://......etc">ccc</a>

Any ideas what I could be doing wrong?

Thanks.

The jQuery wrapper is used for DOM elements, not arbitrary objects, and location ( window.location ) doesn't even have a target attribute. Simply do a window.open(...) .
