Javascript - Open a given URL in a new tab by clicking a button

Use this:

<input type="button" value="button name" onclick="window.open('http://www.website.com/page')" />

Worked for me and it will open an actual new 'popup' window rather than a new full browser or tab. You can also add variables to it to stop it from showing specific browser traits as follows:

onclick="window.open(this.href,'popUpWindow','height=400,width=600,left=10,top=10,,scrollbars=yes,menubar=no'); return false;"

In javascript you can do:

window.open(url, "_blank");
