Hyperlink open in NEW browser, not just new window

Hi all,

I was wondering if there is any way to have a hyperlink be opened in an entirely new window, not just a new tab.

Hence, similar to what would happen if you use CTRL + SHIFT + CLICK on a hyperlink. (cntrl+click opens a new tab, cntrl+shift+click opens the link in a new window).

As my survey is embedded in a Wix website, I cannot use the function "open in same window". Namely, this would open the new URL inside the embedded frame. Thus, I really want it to be opened in an entirely new window. Does anyone have a suggestion how to do this (perhaps using Javascript code)?

Thank you in advance!

Thank you for your reply!

I currently already have the "_blank" target, but it opens a new tab, not a new window, unfortunately.
After some Googling, I found this might depend on the browser that is used (I use Google Chrome personally, but cannot control the browser my participants will use).

Is there any way to ensure a new window is opened, not a new tab in the same window? ...

Thanks!
