[WSG] option to open newwindow inside the link !!

2007-02-08 Thread Gaspar

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

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.
