[WSG] option to open newwindow inside the link !!
Hello everyone, I know open new windows should be avoid, but sometimes we need that to to prevent confusion. Iam thinking in some way of warn and give the option in each link to the user chose or not to open in new window. Something like a href=something.com title=go to somethingsomethingabbr id=popup tile=Open new windowoplus;/abbr/a and by javascript, if the user click on abbr id=popup the, we will find the element that contain the abbr and set attribute target=_blank to element a OR in other way get the value of href of contain element and give that value to a function opennewwindow. The question is to JAWs or others screenreaders would be confuse if have on trigger inside a a element or not, and if should open by Target=_blank or OpenNewWindow or a simple link with two ways of get out are a bis confusion -- Make it simple for the people -- http://www.artideias.com *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

If you feel able to give them a choice, then leave them with their normal choice, as it clearly _isn't _ essential to your application.
