<p>Note that when <code>noopener</code> is used, nonempty target names other than <code>_top</code>, <code>_self</code>, and <code>_parent</code> are all treated like <code>_blank</code> in terms of deciding whether to open a new window/tab.</p>

<div class="notecard note">
<h4>Note</h4>
<p>Setting <code>target="_blank"</code> on <code>&lt;a&gt;</code> elements now implicitly provides the same <code>rel</code> behavior as setting <code><a href="/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Link_types/noopener">rel="noopener"</a></code> which does not set <code>window.opener</code>. See <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a#browser_compatibility">browser compatibility</a> for support status.</p>
