Combine targets on a tag in HTML with pure HTML

HTML5: Is there any way to combine targets on <a> tag in HTML with pure HTML? like If you want to open a new window in the parent window or top window?
Something like: target="_blank && _parent" without using JavaSript?

OK, just add my solution which may help somebody...
So what is happening, you basically never need to combine them, as _blank only open in _top level...
So why it wasn't working for me?
The reason was the sandbox on the iframe, so if you need to open a link in _blank, make sure you add allow-popups in your sandbox list...
Unfortunately, it will fail silently if only using target="_blank" in your iframe link, that's why you may not notice that at the first place...

Create a html window within another html window

I currently have a page with a few buttons. When I click on the button I want to open a new html page within the parent page. I want to do this in such a way that the parent window becomes transparent and the new page is over it. How can I go about doing this? I have tried to use Iframes but it does not give me the output that I want.

James Kirsch has given you one way to do it. Another is to have a hidden DIV that you show when you need it. In both cases, you may have to place a semi-transparent GIF image behind the DIV (or opened window) so someone can not do anything with the rest of the web page until they have finished interacting with the new window. You can do this by using the z-index CSS command. So the DIV would be:
<DIV style='z-index:100;'>....</DIV>
and the image would be something like
<img src="PUT YOUR PATH HERE" style='position:absolute;top:0%;left:0%;width:100%;height:100%;z-index:50;'>
This would put the GIF image halfway between the web page and the DIV.
The above is what is happening when you go to a website and they grey out everything behind the new window. It also keeps people from pushing on buttons when you don't want them to do so.
IFRAME stands for something like INSERTED_FRAME where the "INSERTED" part means it is inserted into your pre-existing web page. That is why it doesn't work. Neither will the FRAME command work because (again) it is embedded into the pre-existing web page. You are wanting to lay the new window on top of the web page. Thus, Mr. Kirsch' answer and my own. Note that you can also use a TABLE command to do the same thing - even if it is frowned upon to use tables presently. It is the STYLE part of the command that causes the HTML element to appear above the rest of the web page and not any particular HTML command itself. Also, the "position:absolute" part of the STYLE command is what overrides the web page's positioning of the element. Have fun!

In the Javascript have you considered using the following?
window.open();
This call appears to take parameters for Position and Size, you may be able to close the previous window also if you desire, or manipulate it.
Example:
window.open('this.html','','left=15,top=15,width=800,height=600');

Can you make the browser detect Javascript links on elements other than <a>

On medium.com they have a clickable link on an h3 element, however the browser seems to know the URL that it will take you to and shows it in the bottom left side of the screen.
When I inspect element I see that this link is only an h3 element. It has a name attribute, an id and a class on it. There is no element and there is no href.
I assume that they listen to the click event of this element and then redirect the user to the correct page, but what I don't understand is how google chrome knows that this is a link and even shows the url it will take you to.
Is this something the browser now supports? Is there a specific way of forcing the browser to show it?

Yes, there is a <a> element, just further up the line:
This would have been visible in your screenshot too, in the selector bar at the bottom:
(Link to the page, if anyone is interested.)

Yep, it can be done through a simple listener, eg in jQuery:
<h3 id="link1">Link1</h3>
And the codebehind:
$("#link1").click(function () {
window.location.href = "http://www.google.com";
});
Should work in any modern browser, but I'd say they'd all interpret it differently. I'm not sure we really need to know why it works, just that it does - you could get in to asking how anything works in a browser. Presumably they quickly parse all of the code as it is loaded so they know all of the possible events. Something like this might help.

But if not Siguza finde <a href>. I think chrom count dependecis and show redirect page or function. Status bar you can just turn off or on. Or change by "wrong" redirect like can you show "Im the best" take
test
show : localhost34567/Im the Best! ---> ok not perfect :D but you can play with it and have better results.

Changing content of a fancybox with ajax

I have a link in my menu that opens up a fancybox with some ajax contents. This box contains links, like a menu for the data shown in the fancybox. I would like to be able to click these links and change the content of the fancybox but all I manage is to open a new box instead, which makes the screen fade to white and back which makes it look like it's flickering.
I tried using an array of content dictionaries to just change the but couldn't get it to load any of them. I've also added a rel to the links making it a album with arrows on the side so I can go to the next/previous and that works fine except that's not the type of navigation I want. It must be possible to do the same through links instead, but I can't figure out how. Can anyone help me with this?
Edit: a small jsfiddle of some things that I tried.

Fancybox supports iframes. You could make an iframe instead. And put in another html-page there.

You can try on each link
The links located on the same server or different domains?
Have you tried with onclick="window.location.replace(url)"
I use fancybox on our web system and that helped me with fancybox

How do you hide the URL when you hover a hyperlink?

When you hover over a hyperlink you see in the corner of your browser the url you're gonig to. I'm using javascript to navigate through my tabs div. When I hover over the tab I see the url. I would like to hide this. Is this possible?
Link to example

Don't do it! Clients like to see where links are going. This behavior isn't up to you.
The only thing you could reasonably do is set the link to go to nowhere, and set the onclick attribute with sourcecode that does a window.location.

If you don't use the "href" attribute, the link won't show up.
Simply do this:
<a id="tab1">Tab 1</a>
$('#tab1').click(function(event) {
switchTabs();
});
This will register a click event (using jQuery) on the link without displaying any URL to the user. This is the proper way for handling links that don't redirect the user.

Hide Text
Then in that function you can have a switch case statement which uses window.location to send the user to another page.
Downsides to this include alienating your users which disable Javascript, and search engines probably won't follow this link.
