Try this


<a href="http://google.com/"; onclick="window.open(this.href); return
false;">
  A Test Link
</a>

It achieves your objective of opening a new window, but it also:

    * Preserves the href element for Search Engines
    * Users who want control can still right-click
    * The link can still be Bookmarked or added to the browser Favorites
    * Your code will validate

Subject: [WSG] Replacing target attribute in form

Hi

I have a little online store paying through Paypal, using their 
shopping cart. So the buy button opens up a new window and you're into 
Paypal.

Unfortunately the bit of html for the form uses 'target' to open up the 
window and I'm coding in xhtml strict.

I'm using onclick="newWindow() return false" for opening new windows.

I'm looking for a simple bit of javascript to do the same for the form, 
something like form.target = window.open()

Any ideas?

Kind Regards
