The xlink:show attribute indicates how a linked resource should be opened and is meant for XLink-aware processors. In case of a conflict, the target attribute has priority, since it can express a wider range of values.
You can use this attribute with the following SVG elements:
This value specifies that the referenced resource is opened in a new window or tab. This is similar to the effect achieved by an HTML <a> element with target set to _blank.
This value specifies that the referenced resource is opened in the same window or tab. This is similar to the effect achieved by an HTML <a> element with target set to _self.
This value specifies that instead of linking to the resource it will be loaded and shown within the document. This is similar to the effect achieved by an HTML <img> element.
