Answer 1

Use window.open funtion for the new tab. See the example below.

window.open(url, '_blank');

Answer 2

Thanks all of you! I think i found my answer i have added window.open(window.location.href, '_blank'); this one at the end of my bookmarklet. It opens the same page and bookmarklet also works. Looks like doing the reverse:)

Answer 3

Try it. I am not sure about your URL.

HTML

<p onclick ="OpenNewTab()">Click Me.</p>

Script

<script>
function OpenNewTab(){

window.open('%27https://www.lingq.com%27;(function()%7B(function()%7Bvar b=function()%7Bwindow.lingq_bookmarklet%3Flingq_bookmarklet():window.setTimeout(b,500)%7D,c=document.getElementsByTagName("head")%5B0%5D,a=document.createElement("script");a.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");a.setAttribute("src",lingq_base_url+"/bookmarklet/bookmarklet.js");c.appendChild(a);b()%7D)()%7D)()','_blank');
}
</script>

Answer 4

The bookmarklet upload the selected text the website (lingq.com)

I have added javascript in front of the your code. Does it must be like that?

    javascript: function OpenNewTab(){

window.open('%27https://www.lingq.com%27;(function()%7B(function()%7Bvar b=function()%7Bwindow.lingq_bookmarklet%3Flingq_bookmarklet():window.setTimeout(b,500)%7D,c=document.getElementsByTagName("head")%5B0%5D,a=document.createElement("script");a.setAttribute("type","text/javascript");a.setAttribute("src",lingq_base_url+"/bookmarklet/bookmarklet.js");c.appendChild(a);b()%7D)()%7D)()','_blank');
}

Answer 5

You can use window.open to go to a url.

window.open("www.url.com");

You can also pass few arguments to determine how the url be open.

• _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

You can pass there arguments like this.

window.open("www.url.com","_blank");
window.open("www.url.com","_parent ");
window.open("www.url.com","_self ");
window.open("www.url.com","_top");

There are few other parameters that you can use. (specs, replace)
