I'm trying to open multiple links at once in Google Chrome in new tabs but it fails.
Problems:
With this, I can open multiple links at once in Firefox:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="plunker">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>AngularJS Plunker</title>
<script>document.write('<base href="' + document.location + '" >');</script>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
<script data-require="[email protected]" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.2.17/angular.min.js" data-semver="1.2.17"></script>
<script src="app.js"></script>
</head>
<body ng-controller="MainCtrl">
<button ng-click="openLinks()">Open</button>
</body>
</html>
Also, I came across someone who found a workaround.
I tried using setInterval to try to open the links individually but it didn't work.

You can do this in vanilla JavaScript:
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
function open_win() {
window.open("http://www.java2s.com/")
window.open("http://www.java2s.com/")
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type=button value="Open Windows" onclick="open_win()">
</form>
</body>
</html>
Here is a more Chrome-specific implementation (if popup blockers are giving you difficulty):
var linkArray = []; // your links
for (var i = 0; i < linkArray.length; i++) {
// will open each link in the current window
chrome.tabs.create({
url: linkArray[i]
});
}
Here is some documentation: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/tabs

The reason that the browser extension can do it is because Chrome extensions have access to a special Chrome API, which lets you use:
chrome.windows.create({tabid: n})
where createData has a tabid value greater than any current tab (and you can find the greatest current tabid using chrome.windows.getAll()).
However, in terms of doing it on your page (or anywhere that's not a Chrome extension), that's not possible, since whether or not a new window opens in a new tab is determined entirely by the user's settings.

User will have to allow popups but I ended up doing this:
function openMultipleTabs(urlsArray){
urlsArray.forEach(function(url){
let link = document.createElement('a');
link.href = url;
link.target = '_blank';
link.click();
});
}
