Opening Files In New Window Or Tab With Html Tag

Adrianna · July 7, 2014, 2:48am

Hi. I know to open the files in new tab in CHtml::link but how about if my code is something like this…





echo 'Current file: ';

echo '<a href="files/docs/'.$modelf->file_location.'">('.$pdf[0].'.pdf)</a> ';

What line of code should I add if I want that link to open in new tab? Need help here. Thank you.

Answering my own question I just have to add target="_blank" to set the link to open in new tab. Yeah. That easy .
