Target browsing context
Description
The target attribute from a element
lets you tell the browser where you want
the linked resource to be displayed.
By default, the browser uses the window, tab, or frame in which the current document is displayed to show the linked document and replace the existing one.
The following list describes the supported values for the target attribute.
- _blank - Open the document in a new window (or tab).
- _parent - Open the document in the parent frameset.
- _self - Open the document in the current window (this is the default behavior).
- _top - Open the document in the full body of the window.
- <frame> - Open the document in the specified frame.
Each of these values represents a browsing context.
