要打开新选项卡并保持在同一位置，可以在新选项卡中打开当前页面，然后将旧选项卡重定向到新URL。

let newUrl = 'http://example.com';
let currentUrl = window.location.href;
window.open(currentUrl , '_blank'); // Open window with the URL of the current page
location.href = newUrl; // Redirect the previous window to the new URL

浏览器将自动将您移动到新打开的选项卡。看起来您的页面已重新加载，您将停留在同一页面上，但在新窗口上：

作者无法选择在新选项卡而不是新窗口中打开；这是用户偏好。（请注意，大多数浏览器中的默认用户首选项是针对新选项卡的，因此在未更改该首选项的浏览器上进行的简单测试不会证明这一点。）

CSS3提出了新的目标，但该规范被放弃。

反之则不然；通过在window.open（）的第三个参数中为窗口指定某些窗口特性，当首选项是选项卡时，可以触发一个新窗口。

一个有趣的事实是，如果用户未调用该操作（单击按钮或其他东西），或者该操作是异步的，则无法打开新选项卡，例如，这将不会在新选项卡中打开：

$.ajax({
    url: "url",
    type: "POST",
    success: function() {
        window.open('url', '_blank');              
    }
});

但这可能会在新选项卡中打开，具体取决于浏览器设置：

$.ajax({
    url: "url",
    type: "POST",
    async: false,
    success: function() {
        window.open('url', '_blank');              
    }
});

在Firefox（Mozilla）扩展中打开一个新的选项卡如下：

gBrowser.selectedTab = gBrowser.addTab("http://example.com");

这种方式与以前的解决方案类似，但实施方式不同：

.social_icon->CSS类

 <div class="social_icon" id="SOME_ID" data-url="SOME_URL"></div>

 $('.social_icon').click(function(){

        var url = $(this).attr('data-url');
        var win = window.open(url, '_blank');  ///similar to above solution
        win.focus();
   });

不知怎么的，一个网站可以做到这一点

    Array.prototype.indexOf = function(searchElement, fromIndex) {
        if (this === undefined || this === null)
            throw new TypeError('"this" is null or not defined');
        var length = this.length >>> 0;
        fromIndex = +fromIndex || 0;

            fromIndex = 0;
        if (fromIndex < 0) {
            fromIndex += length;
            if (fromIndex < 0)
                fromIndex = 0
        }
        for (; fromIndex < length; fromIndex++)
            if (this[fromIndex] === searchElement)
                return fromIndex;
        return -1
