Hi Andrew,

Thanks!

Sorry - I'm stuck with the new window.
The best I can do is try to make it work well.

I'll check into your solutions.

You could replace that long URL in window.open with this.href to make
it a bit easier to manage.

A solution that uses target but still validates as Strict is to use
JavaScript to overwrite the targets, eg.:

  <a href="x.html" class="popup">hello</a>
    ...
  <script type="text/javascript">
    for (var i= document.links.length; i-->0;)
      if (document.links[i].className=='popup')
        document.links[i].target= '_blank';
  </script>
