Once you have support in CSS, you can use DOM+CSS from JS. No particular support within JS is required. Chris

In my eyes, it makes the _tab scenario quite valid. But, as mentioned by Adrian Sutton, there would be technical problems with older browsers so this proposal has to be scrapped. On the HTML/CSS level, this will be eventually handled by the 'target-new' property (which will be more flexible than target="_tab" as well) and I hope it will find its way into JavaScript too, eventually. P.S. Sorry for not maintaining the thread sequence correctly, I couldn't figure out how to do that (that's why I used the forum instead of the mailing list in the first place :) --- Borek
