A form with two submit buttons. The first submit button submits the form data with default target ("_self"), and the second submits the form data to a new window (target="_blank"):
The formtarget attribute specifies where to display the response after submitting the form. This attribute overrides the form's target attribute.
The formtarget attribute is only used for buttons with type="submit".
The numbers in the table specify the first browser version that fully supports the attribute.

---|---|---|---|---|---|
formtarget | 9.0 | 10.0 | 4.0 | 5.1 | 10.6 |
The formtarget attribute is new in HTML5.
Note: Frames and framesets are not supported in HTML5. The _parent, _top and framename values are now mostly used with iframes.
