From the webbrowser module documentation.

Code:
webbrowser.open_new_tab(url)

Open url in a new page (“tab”) of the default browser, if possible, otherwise equivalent to open_new().

So if the browser is already running it will open a tab. Otherwise, it will revert to open_new, which opens a new window.

Code:
webbrowser.open_new(url)

Open url in a new window of the default browser, if possible, otherwise, open url in the only browser window.
