personally i say keep it in the same window if your interested I wrote an article about it recently after reading a few other articles about things similar http://germworks.net/blog/2007/07/02/usability-and-accessibility-the-foreign-legion-of-web-design/
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 13/07/2007 10:21:29 am >>> Hello List, I was curious what others opinions were on this issue... Since W3C doesn't allow the target attribute in XHTML Strict, which do you think is better? Having the window opening up with JavaScript or just keeping the page in the same window like W3C wants. I assume the reason for not allowing the target attribute is for accessibility--because screen readers can not control pop-ups. Therefore it seems logical to me to keep it in the same window--even if it is an external site, etc. What does everyone think?
