Open New Tab- Google Chrome

Question

After reading this thread, I looked around my Google Chrome settings for how to allow javascript to open new tabs without user interaction but I couldn't find the setting. I'm using Google Chrome on my iMac, if it makes a difference.

I tried searching for something using the Chrome Support Site but couldn't find anything that really helped.

Does anyone know how to edit this setting?

If I understood your question then, in your core javascript file you can add this:

$(document).ready(function () {
    $("a").click(function () {
        $(this).attr("target", "_blank");
    });
});

Fiddle.

@RahilWazir that doesn't matter I guess because it works fine without that as well. It's like a hidden parameter which is always present with the functions. – Mohammad Areeb Siddiqui Jan 01 '14 at 19:38
It does matter otherwise it will throw an error: `e is not defined`. Well you've removed it so. – Rahil Wazir Jan 01 '14 at 19:40
This requires user interaction. I was hoping that there was a setting, as a user on the thread I posted in the question said there was, that would allow this without user interaction – Jordan Jan 01 '14 at 19:42
@Alex how would it? The user would definitely need to click a link. – Mohammad Areeb Siddiqui Jan 01 '14 at 19:43
For my purpose, the user isn't clicking anything. It's complicated but trust me, it all happens dynamically. – Jordan Jan 01 '14 at 19:46
And the original question was if and where is the setting for this – Jordan Jan 01 '14 at 19:52
