Thanks for your reply. I considered <form ... target="blank"> as well before
I posted this question. However you should know that currently my
architecture utilizes only one <form> trag to which various user inputs (e. g. buttons)
submit. On serverside I gather the information which action was intended.
The problem is that there is only one single button within my client view that
would require to open a new browser window. Any others should remain updating
the same browser window. Therefore I was asking if there is a possibility
that cocoon could create a new browser window. 

As a workaround I'm doing it as follows however in a future release of my
application I'd like to avoid javascript at all:

<form action="/xxx" method="get">
   <input name="process" type="hidden">
   ...
        <input type="submit" onclick="document.forms[0].process.value='regular'" 
                value=" A regular action that should update current view "/>
   ...
        <input type="submit" onclick="document.forms[0].process.value='new',
document.forms[0].target='_blank'" 
                value="open new browser window! "/>
   ...
</form>

It seems that there is no way out to use my current design without
javascript.

Harald
