Enum Target 

pub enum Target {
    Self_,
    Blank,
    Parent,
    Top,
}

The target attribute values for hyperlinks and forms.

Purpose

Specifies where to display the linked URL or form response, controlling whether content opens in a new window, the same frame, or a specific context.

Usage Context

• Used with: <a>, <area>, <form>, <base> elements
• Security: Use with rel="noopener" when opening in new window

Valid Values

• Self_: Open in the same browsing context (default)
• Blank: Open in a new window or tab
• Parent: Open in the parent browsing context
• Top: Open in the top-most browsing context

Example

use ironhtml_attributes::{AttributeValue, Target};
let target = Target::Blank;
assert_eq!(target.to_attr_value(), "_blank");

<a href="https://example.com" target="_blank">Open in new tab</a>
<a href="/page" target="_self">Open in same tab</a>
<form action="/submit" target="_parent" method="post">...</form>

WHATWG Specification

• Browsing context names
• The target attribute

Variants

Self_

Open in the same browsing context (frame/tab). This is the default behavior when target is not specified.

Blank

Open in a new, unnamed browsing context (typically a new tab or window). For security, use with rel="noopener noreferrer".

Parent

Open in the parent browsing context. If no parent exists, behaves like _self.

Top

Open in the top-level browsing context (the highest-level ancestor). If no ancestors exist, behaves like _self.

Trait Implementations

impl AttributeValue for Target

fn to_attr_value(&self) -> Cow<'static, str>

Convert to the attribute value string.

impl Clone for Target

fn clone(&self) -> Target

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Target

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for Target

fn eq(&self, other: &Target) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
