How to Use "_Blank" or "_New" in Rails

How to use _blank or _new in Rails

I think it's like this

<%= link_to image_tag('img.png'), 'http://www.website.com', target: '_blank' %>

See http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionView/Helpers/UrlHelper.html#method-i-link_to

How to automatically add _blank to anchor links in Ruby on Rails

You can achieve this using JavaScript:

$("a").click(function() {
    if (!/^#/.test($(this).attr('href'))) {
        window.open(this.href, '_blank');
        return false;
    }
});

This code will open all the anchors with the target attribute set to _blank.

Why does link_to method post, target blank not open in a new tab?

It appears to be fixed in https://github.com/rails/jquery-ujs/commit/888be8adcb7d609f442b3883dc722.

"jquery-ujs" is distributed as part of the "jquery-rails" gem.

Try to bundle update jquery-rails itself to the latest version (which is 2.1.1).

Rails if empty, use other value

Override the getter in your model:

def billing_email
  super.blank? ? email : super
end

But you'd rather use another method name, or keep the same name but in a decorator for instance.

Using target: _blank on button_tag

To submit a form to new window, use target attribute on <form> element:

<form action="" target="_blank">

Rails link_to and onClick with target=_blank does not work together

Please try to use window.open()

<script>
  var trackOutboundLink = function(url) {
    ga('send', 'event', 'outbound', 'click', url, {'hitCallback':
     function () {
         window.open(url);
      }
      });
    }
</script>

Target Blank not opening the link in a new tab

Yes, your javascript looks to be the culprit. So instead of window.location.assign, try using window.open as follows:

window.open("http://localhost:3000/patients?provider="+provider_id+"&"+"therapeutic_class="+thera_class, '_blank');

Open a new window on click submit in rails

use formtarget="_blank".

<%= form_for @my_obj do |f|

<div class="actions">
    <%= f.button :submit,:class => 'btn btn-md btn-success', :formtarget => "_blank" do %>
      <i class='fa fa fa-plus'></i> Create New Window
    <% end %>
</div>
