Is it possible to make a hyperlink open in a new tab? AFAIK there is
only the tag target="_blank" which opens links in a new window OR a new
tab, depending on the user's browser settings.
No, there is no way to be absolutely sure that a new tab or window will be
opened (or not) in all browsers. And this is a good thing: I wouldn't want a
website to force me to open a new tab, even worse, new window, if I didn't
ask for it -- and I know how to click on my right or middle mouse buttons if
I want this.
An expert in web usability wrote that opening new browser windows is one of
the worst web design mistakes (#9):

When the standard XHTML-Strict was official and some webmasters tried to
comply to it, they noticed that the attribute target="_blank" was invalid in
that standard. So, they found ways to use JavaScript in order to open some
links in new windows:

I don't think you can request opening of new tabs OR windows though.
