Is there a way to change a particular attribute of all HTML elements of a certain tag with javascript or php (or anything else)? For example, I’d like to use javascript to change all “<a>” elements on the page to have the “target=’_blank'” attribute. Any suggestions?

    The following jQuery code will add a target=”_blank” attribute to all anchor (a) elements on a page:

    $(function() {
    $('a').attr('target', '_blank');
});

    You will need to include a copy of jQuery in your HTML’s head element, before the script above. So your head element will look something like:

    <head>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(function() {
            $('a').attr('target', '_blank');
        });
    </script>
</head>
