Just out of curiosity, what compliance issue are you referring to? Were you using XHTML 1.0 Strict? I just checked and XHTML 1.0 Strict has deprecated the target attribute entirely, whereas XHTML 1.0 Transitional retains it. http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd Thanks, -dave
