A:
The HtmlPage.Window.Navigate() method has an overload which allows you to specify which frame to load the new page in. _blank is used for new window/tab.
HtmlPage.Window.Navigate(new Uri("http://google.com"), "_blank");

but its not google or something like that, its a window i created, so what's the URL i need to put there?

Well change the google.com URL to your own URL...

i wrote HtmlPage.Window.Navigate(new Uri("http://localhost:52878/DoNationFinalTestPage.aspx#/jjj"), "Organiztrion_info_from_toolTip"); is the window that i built, but it opens the application again in a new window and not the "Organiztrion_info_from_toolTip" window

A:
You can use a HyperlinkButton for this.
<HyperlinkButton NavigateUri="http://www.silverlight.net" TargetName="_blank" Content="HyperlinkButton"/>
When you specify "_blank" as TargetName. A new tab or window is opened and the specified uri gets opened. Also other values for TargetName are valid. See here more.
Edit:
To open the same Silverlight application in a new tab you can use the System.Windows.Browser.HtmlPage.Document.DocumentUri as NavigationUri of the HyperlinkButton.

Taking your question literally the answer is:-
HtmlPage.Window.Navigate(HtmlPage.Document.DocumentUri, "_blank");

but there is no mention to the window that need to be open.let say the name of my window is app, how does it fit un what you wrote?

@aharont: IF the window name is "app" then change "_blank" to "app"

A:
The only thing you can open 'in a new tab' is a web page. If you want to open a different Silverlight application in a new tab, then it will need to be hosted in a webpage, and you will need to use HtmlPage.Window.Navigate() to open that page. You cannot just open a new tab and have it somehow contain something embedded in your application - that is not how webbrowsers work.
