Hi!

Is there a way in PHP (or using Javascript) to open a file (image, pdf, etc) and display it in a new window.

Basically I want my script to display contents of text files in the same window, but should open other mimetypes in a new window.

The filename (and hence type of file) is found out by the same script before the file is to be displayed.

Thanks.

Well you should be able to just use JavaScript window.open() method, or use the target=_blank attribute on an <a> tag.

<a href=image1.png target=_blank>image1.png</a>

<a href=javascript:window.open('image1.png')>image1.p ng</a>

I think this should work.
