What are the potential reasons for a form opening in a new window even when it is intended to open in the same window in PHP?

The potential reasons for a form opening in a new window when it is intended to open in the same window in PHP could be due to the form target attribute being set to "_blank" or if there is JavaScript code redirecting the form submission to a new window. To solve this issue, ensure that the form target attribute is set to "_self" or remove any JavaScript code that opens the form in a new window. 

<form action="process_form.php" method="post" target="_self">
  <!-- form fields go here -->
  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>
