If you use a strice doctype then target=_blank is illegal. There's a reason for that but I won't bore you with a lecture. > Why and is there a css solution for this dilemma?

A lot of people these days have "popup blockers" installed and their browsers won't open your new window. Darn, I promised no lecture, didn't I. :-) Ed Seedhouse ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
