if it is self targeted then it should open in same window. can you update the question with minimum full html page to recreate the bug or give the link to your site if it is accessible from internet.

Just remove target all together. If it still opens in new tab then it is a browser setting.

From the W3Schools site:

_blank

Opens the linked document in a new window or tab

_self

Opens the linked document in the same frame as it was clicked (this is default)

_parent

Opens the linked document in the parent frame(This is the one I think you are wanting to use)

_top

Opens the linked document in the full body of the window

framename

Opens the linked document in a named frame

If one of these are not working then the user has a setting in the browser that will override them....
