Use the following

<asp:HyperLink ID="hplStandard" runat="server"  ForeColor="Green"  
 Font-Bold="True" Target="_blank">Standard Report</asp:HyperLink>

CSS3 offers a target-new property for which you can specify window | tab | none:

If a user wanted to have new windows open in new tabs instead, she could use the following user style sheet to do so:

* { target-new: tab ! important }

The syntax is following: 

<a href="http://www.someurl.com" target="_blank">

This will open the page in new page or tab this depends on browser configuration.

add 

 target="_blank" in your link.

If you want links on whole page to be open in new tab you can use. 

<head>
 <title></title>
 <base target="_blank"/>
</head>

This depends on how the browser treats the target attribute on the a (anchor) tag

When target="_blank", older browsers, which don't have tabbing, will open a new window.

Newer browsers, however, will use this to open a new tab.
