I read many posts but i couldn’t find an answer to my question. I have a button on a webpage which is linked to a controller. This controller prepares some data and calls the view. In the view I have a php variable with this data.

I want to open a new page/tab and add the content of my php variable. The content of the variable is a SVG string which is readable by all browsers.

I know this is not possible in php. I need to use JavaScript, but how can i add the content of a php variable to a new tab???

Note: I have the string only in the php variable not in a file and I don’t want to click again on a link to open a new tab.

Any ideas or solutions?

According to the first answer an example (doesnt work:()

<html>
<head>
    <title>
        Test file
    </title>
    <script>
        var myWindow = window.open('','_newtab');
        myWindow.document.write($('myString').text());

    </script>
</head>
<body>
    <p style="display:none" id="myString">Das kommt auch auf die neue seite</p>
</body>

    PHP is not capable of doing that. You need Javascript. Or you define your button with target blank.

    Window open() Method http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_win_open.asp

    HTML target Attribute http://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_target.asp

    JS example:

    $(document).ready(function(){
    myWindow=window.open('', '_blank')
    myWindow.document.write($('#myString').text());
});

    This will open a new window and write #myString content to it. You need to define #myString with your string or whatever you want to display. E.g.

    <p id="myString">New window</p>

    Here you go http://jsfiddle.net/qBjVG/13/
