Print php data in new tab

I have a simple php code like this:

    //index.php
    $file  = fil1.txt;
    //open file using fopen...
    echo $file;

What should I do if I need to print my file data in new tab in another php file(e.x. result.php) ?

This is real my example of code:

function elementStart($parser, $name, $attrs) {
global $depth;

echo str_repeat(" ", $depth * 0); 
//echo "<b>$name</b><br>";     

$depth++; 

    foreach ($attrs as $attr => $value) {
        echo str_repeat("&nbsp;", $depth * 0); 

        echo $value.'<br>';
    }
}

function elementStr($parser, $str) {
    if (strlen(trim($str)) > 0) {
        global $depth;

        echo str_repeat("&nbsp;", $depth * 0); 
        echo $str.'<br>'; 
    }
}

function elementEnd($parser, $name) {
    global $depth;

    $depth--;
}

require_once 'connect.php';

if(isset($_POST['submit1']))
{

$db = new database('localhost', 'root', '', 'database1');
$val = mysql_escape_string($_POST['xml1']); 
$db->query("SELECT * FROM xmltable1 WHERE xmlvalue LIKE '%$val%' LIMIT 1");
if($_POST['submit1'])
{



    if($dbase->numRows() == 0){
        echo 'No rows';
    }
    else{
        foreach($db->rows() as $name){
            //echo $name['xmlvalue'];

            define('FOLDER_PATH', 'C:user/folder1/xmld/');
            $full_path = FOLDER_PATH.$name['xmldata'];
            //echo $full_path;
                    $depth = 0;
                    $file  = $full_path;

                    $xml_parser = xml_parser_create();

                    xml_set_element_handler($xml_parser, "elementStart", "elementEnd");
                    xml_set_character_data_handler($xml_parser, "elementStr");


                    while ($data = fgets($fp)) {

                    thexml_parser_free($thexml_parser);

            }

        }
    }

$dbase->disconnect();
}

In my functions there are echo. And of course I get echo in current page, but I need echo in new tab.

The only way to pass data to another PHP file in another window (or tab) is by using sessions.

At the top of both your PHP files, start a session:

session_start();

In your index.php assign the file data to a session variable:

$_SESSION['file_data'] = $file_contents;

In your results.php, print out the data:

echo $_SESSION['file_data'];

Open an new tab is not PHP should do, you can try using javascripntk to achieve like this: 

echo <<<EOF
<script>
var win = window.open('about:blank');
var doc = win.document;
doc.write('{$yourdata}');
</script>
EOF;
