You can use `window.open()` to open a new window, control its appearance,
turn off things like toolbars, or do just about anything else you would
like to do.
The trick is to *change* the window in some way such as removing the status
bar, setting a width, etc. Those can't be opened in a tab, thus forcing
the browser to override its default setting to open all new windows in a
tab.
```
window.open('http://www.google.com', '_blank',
'toolbar=0,location=0,menubar=0');
```
