Is it possible to open an a href link in a new tab instead of the same tab? Link

 

Yes, it's possible to open an <a> link in a new tab instead of the same tab by using the target attribute with the value "_blank". Here's an example:

html
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> </head> <body> <a href="http://www.example.com" target="_blank">Open in New Tab</a> </body> </html>

In this example, when the "Open in New Tab" link is clicked, it will open the URL "http://www.example.com" in a new browser tab. The target="_blank" attribute specifies that the link should open in a new browsing context (tab or window) instead of replacing the current one.

Keep in mind that whether a link opens in a new tab or window is also influenced by browser settings and user preferences. Most modern browsers will follow the _blank target attribute and open the link in a new tab by default.
