Opening a new browser tab

I've tried several functions but none seems to be working? For example:

element, _ := webdriver.FindElement(selenium.ByCSSSelector, "body")
element.SendKeys(selenium.ControlKey + "t")

Selenium is capable of executing javascript within the browser.

To open a new tab get selenium to run the following:

window.open()

I've not used Selenium & Go before - so I can't comment on the syntax. However it's normally along the lines of driver.ExecuteScript("window.open()"). See if your IDE will help you plug the gap.

After you get a new tab, you typically need to use the .switchTo in order to move selenium to another tab.

updated:

Docs suggest....

// ExecuteScript executes a script.
    ExecuteScript(script string, args []interface{}) (interface{}, error)

see here
