Step By Step Guide On Open URL In New Tab JavaScript :-

In the example below, we are going to see two different examples on window.open() method.

Example 1

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang = " en " >
<head>
    <meta charset = " UTF - 8" >
    <meta http-equiv = " X-UA-Compatible " content = " IE=edge " >
    <meta name = " viewport " content = " width = device-width , initial-scale = 1.0 " >
    <title> open URL in new tab JavaScript </title>
    <style>
        h1 {
         font-size : larger ;
         font-weight : bolder ;
         color : rgb(113, 221, 113) ;
         text-align : center ;
        }
        h3 {
            text-align : center ;
            font-family : 'Lucida Sans' , 'Lucida Sans Regular' , 'Lucida Grande' , 'Lucida Sans Unicode' , Geneva , Verdana , sans-serif ;
        }
    </style>
</head>
<body>
    <h1> TALKERSCODE </h1>
    <h3> open URL in new tab JavaScript </h3>
    <button onclick="openLink();"> Click! </button>
    <script>
  function openLink() {
    window.open (" https://www.talkerscode.com/");
  }
    </script>
</body>
</html>

First, we write <! DOCTYPE html> which we used as an instruction to the web browser about what version of HTML file is written in.
Secondly, the <html> tag is used to indicate the beginning of an HTML document.
As above now the <head> tag is used to contain information about the web page. In this tag, a <title> tag is used which helps us to specify a webpage title.
Both <head> and <title> tags are Paired tags. So, both have </head> and </title> ending tags respectively.
Thirdly, the <body> tag is used to define the webpage body. All the contents to show on the website are written here.
<h1> tag used to add heading here.
Creating a <button> with an onclick with a function.
Created the <style> tag to add CSS to the HTML page.
To add JavaScript Create a <script> tag.
Create the function, and within it add window.open(URL)
By clicking on the URL button, we can open the URL in a new tab.

    <meta charset="UTF-8">
