Help with a redirect to a new page in a new tab

Right now when I implement this code it redirects my current page to a new page, but what I want it to do is open a new tab with the new page.

<?php

/* Redirect browser */
header("Location: (new page)");

exit;
?>

Give people a link to click and let them decide if they want to open it in a new tab/window.

Otherwise AFAIK you can't open a new tab. You can use Javascript's window.open() to open a new window, however.
