Open url in new tab HELP NEEDED

[diegolyanky]

Hi, i'm trying to make a block with this code:

Code: [Select]

<input name="msg" type="text" /><button>DALE AL CLICK</button>

<script>
    document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function() {
        var msg = document.querySelector('input[name=msg]').value.replace(/ /g, '+');
        location.href = 'http://www.misitio.com/index.php?action=profile;u=' + msg;
    });
</script>



The only I need, is OPEN the url in a new tab, is this possible ?

[IchBin]

Browsers treat new windows differently. Some create a new window. Some create a new tab. I don't know of any way that works for all browsers. Besides, you are likely going to piss someone off that like the default behavior of their browser when opening a new link. Your better off just creating a new window and leaving it up to the browser default setting of how it treats new windows vs tabs.

window.open(url,'_blank');

Ok...

so... Where can I put the "_blank" ?

That's all I need. Otherwise, if can open in a new window is better for me.

Thanks a lot for helping me

I already showed you in my last post.

I'll spell it out, but some scripts may not allow this:

Code: [Select]

<a target="_blank" href="http://www.mysite.com">link</a>

regards,

IchBin, Sorry ... I didn't see it.

But, using my code...

Is this ok ? ( Because, don't work... steel opening in same window/tab )

Code: [Select]

<input name="msg" type="text" /><button>BUSCAR</button>

<script>
    document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function() {
        var msg = document.querySelector('input[name=msg]').value.replace(/ /g, '+');
window.open(http://www.MYSITE.com/index.php?action=profile;u= + msg,'_blank');
    });

</script>
Maxx1: Thanks, but I need to know where to put the _blank... I don't know where...

[IchBin]

You forgot a couple of single quotes in your window.open.
window.open('http://www.mysite.com/index.php?action=profile;u=' + msg, '_blank');

That code opens a new tab for me in Chrome and Firefox.

IchBin:

Sorry, but don't work...

Is this code ok ?

Code: [Select]


<input name="msg" type="text" /><button>BUSCAR</button>

<script>
    document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function() {
        var msg = document.querySelector('input[name=msg]').value.replace(/ /g, '+');
window.open("http://www.mysite.com/index.php?action=profile;u=' + msg, '_blank');
</script>

Hello ?

[IchBin]

Sorry there was a double quote where there shouldn't be. Try mine again in my last post.

[diegolyanky]

Yes, sorry for double post...

I used your code, but i'm not sure if is ok or not (maybe bad syntax)

Code: [Select]

<input name="msg" type="text" /><button>BUSCAR</button>

<script>
    document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function() {
        var msg = document.querySelector('input[name=msg]').value.replace(/ /g, '+');
window.open("http://www.mysite.com/index.php?action=profile;u=' + msg, '_blank');
</script>


Is ok ? ... Don't works for me ...

[IchBin]

You cannot have a mixture of double and single quotes like that. If you take the line I posted above here:
http://www.tinyportal.net/index.php?topic=35241.msg281392#msg281392

Replace the line in your code with that line and it should work.

You forgot a couple of single quotes in your window.open.
window.open('http://www.mysite.com/index.php?action=profile;u=' + msg, '_blank');

That code opens a new tab for me in Chrome and Firefox.

Is not working for me...


so was the code, with the recommendation that you have given me.

Is my code as well?

Code: [Select]

<input name="msg" type="text" /><button>BUSCAR</button>

<script>
    document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function() {
        var msg = document.querySelector('input[name=msg]').value.replace(/ /g, '+');
window.open('http://www.ecuforo.com/index.php?action=profile;u=' + msg, '_blank');
</script>
What we do not know is if I put the code you gave me in the right line.

[IchBin]

You put the line in the right location. Only it seems you have removed some code. You are missing the closing }); for the addEventListener function. Try this code.

Code: [Select]

<input name="msg" type="text" /><button>BUSCAR</button>

<script>
    document.querySelector('button').addEventListener('click', function() {
        var msg = document.querySelector('input[name=msg]').value.replace(/ /g, '+');
window.open('http://www.ecuforo.com/index.php?action=profile;u=' + msg, '_blank');
    });
</script>

[diegolyanky]

Yeah !!...
It works !!

Thanks IchBin... ( gift for you, check your email )
