title: Jquery open url in new tab
body: <p>I'm making a personal script to search google in another language and I've got a url that I've passed from a php script. I want to use jquery to open that url in a new tab (only in google chrome).</p>
  
  <p>I tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  window.open("http://localhost/123", '_blank');
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It unfortunately Opens in a new window in google chrome, which is unfortunately the only browser that's light enough to use on my computer. I don't seem to have any success googling it so any advice would be much appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks
  Sam</p>
  
  <p>EDITED:
  Sorry if your not meant to edit like this but my new question is (I should probably ask it somewhere else):</p>
  
  <p>How to edit google chromes  config to open a new tab instead of a window when window.open("href", "_blank") is called?</p>
