Just a suggestion that I think should work. Untested, but I think it should
get the idea across.
Keep your target="_new", and add some JavaScript to the onclick...like
such...
onclick="return newWinFunction()"
Then in your JavaScript
<script>
newWinFunction()
{
window.open(...);
return false;
}
</script>
This should give you the best of both worlds...for the majority that allow
JavaScript they will get a popup controlled by you, and for the minority
that have JavaScript turned off, it will degrade nicely to your existing
target="_new" method.

This was the navigation part that bothered me. I was trying to stay
away from javascript links to avoid the javascript on/off issue, but I'm
also not real happy with the "_blank" target solution either. If you
run full screen, a new window pops up full screen and obscures the rest
of the site. Hmmmm... I'll have to hash the javascript issue over again.
