So this is the simple code for the button to open a certain link

                <button class="btn btn-success" onclick="location.href='http://google.com';"> Google</button>

but it opens it on the same page, I want the link to open on a new tab though.

You can use the following.

window.open(
  'https://google.com',
  '_blank' // <- This is what makes it open in a new window.
);

in HTML

 <button class="btn btn-success" onclick=" window.open('http://google.com','_blank')"> Google</button>
