Hey William,

Somehow it IS controllable...
for example:
http://www.selexgalileo.com/SelexSAS/EN//index.sdo

Notice that at the very top of that page, in Red, there is a link labeled
Innovation... it opens Innovation in a new tab.
Notice that there is another link at the bottom of the page, marked
Credits... it opens in the same tab.

The Innovation URL is contained in an iframe and the target is _blank and it
opens in a tab.
The Credits URL is of course a classic URL which opens in the same
window/tab.

But there is more to this... _blank always opens in a new window when I
write it... can't figure out how to make this tabbed behavior happen and
I've been goggling for most of the day reading and trying various
approaches.
