[WSG] transitional, accessible popups?

[Gyrus]

Hi,

Working on a client site, I just came up with some code for doing popups 
that I thought I'd share for comments here.

I know about TARGET being deprecated, and the Strict-compliant workaround 
on SitePoint
(http://www.sitepoint.com/article/standards-compliant-world). But, as the 
DOCTYPE for the site I'm working on is XHTML 1.0 Transitional, I came up 
with this:

<a href="index.cfm?id=23" title="click for more info in a new window" 
target="newWindow" 
onclick="window.open('index.cfm?id=23','newWindow','height=500,width=400,toolbar=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,status=no'); 
return false;">Click for popup</a>

The idea is, if JS isn't enabled, the HREF is opened in the named TARGET. 
Seems to work fine.

I just wondered if anyone could spot any faults; or, more generally, how 
you're dealing with popups in terms of standards and accessibility.

cheers,

Gyrus
