Angular 2 - Redirect to an external URL and open in a new tab

Question

I'm trying to Open a new page when user clicks on a link. I can't use Angular 2 Router, because it doesn't have any functionalities to redirect to an external URL.

so, i'm using window.location.href="...";

html code:

<button (click)="onNavigate()">Google</tn-submenu-link> 

typescript code:

onNavigate(){         //this.router.navigateByUrl("https://www.google.com");         window.location.href="https://www.google.com";     } 

But how can I open it in a new tab? when using window.location.href ?

Answer 1

onNavigate(){     window.open("https://www.google.com", "_blank"); }
