我需要在另一个选项卡中的echo语句中打开一个文件

Question

When I Click the link in the php echo statement the file is open in the page itself. I want the file to open in another tab.

I know target="_blank" needs to be used but how to input it in my code:

echo <div align=center><a href='$files_show'>$files_field</a></div>";

Answer 1

echo "<div align=center><a href='".$files_show."' target='_blank'>$files_field</a></div>";

The target attribute specifies where the linked document will open when the link is clicked. The default is the current window. If target="_blank", the linked document will open in a new tab or (on older browsers) a new window. Source
