Thank you again!

One last thing, Creedon. Do you have a third-party table generator that you would suggest? My tables will have as many as 30 rows and 10 columns, and I'd like to be able to put links to those same PDF's of the data sheets. Thanks in advance!

You are amazing! It works like a charm. Thank you so much Creedon.

Thank you again Creedon. That definitely works, but I would have to recode the entire markdown. If there is more simple Javascript to alter the entire page of PDS and SDS's to open in a new tab, that would be much easier. I have tried a few things like 

window.open(url, '_blank').focus();
<div onclick="openInNewTab;">SDS</div>

and...

<script>
$('a[href*="pdf"]').click(function(e) {
    e.preventDefault(); 
    var documentUrl = $(this).attr("href"); // get the url of the pdf
    window.open(documentUrl, '_blank');
  });
</script>

within the header code of the page. Can't find the exact code. If you have any suggestions, that would be great. If not, I will alter the markdown code as you suggested.

Thank you again!

I have a markdown block on my page https://manatee-squid-rmnx.squarespace.com/data-sheet-selector-2 within my site. There are several drop-downs where the user can choose data sheets for different products. I want the pdf of the data sheet to open in a new tab so that the user doesn't have to go back and forth through the process for additional data sheets. Here is my code:

<h3 class="dropdown box">N-100 Fast Dry Series: <span style="color:grey; font-size:.8em;">Designed for smaller presses with fast turn-around times. Also for metering and dampening system rollers</span><span style="text-align:right; float: right;">+</span></h3>

<p>[PDS][1] &nbsp;&nbsp; [SDS][2]  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;N-100 Economical, Fast Dry Blanket and Roller Wash</p>

[1]: /s/N-100pds-h465.pdf
[2]: /s/Nova-N-100-Rev3-SDS-p54d.pdf

<p>[PDS][3] &nbsp;&nbsp; [SDS][4] &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;N-103 Economical, Fast Dry Blanket and Roller Wash</p>

[3]: /s/N-103pds-5k5g.pdf
[4]: /s/Nova-N-103-Rev2-SDS-enk4.pdf

My questions:
1. Is using target="_blank" safe to use? I have read that it can be tampered with?
2. Where does that go within Markdown, or do I have to add it to CSS or any other custom code?

If there's anyone out there who can help, thank you so much!
