Steve,

I think you should be fine if the target isn't human-readable. Make sure the link or control that pops up the new window clearly indicates to the user that a a new window will open. You can use the title attribute for this purpose. A prominent close link in the new window will also be helpful.

Otherwise, you should be all set.

Hi Fluid,

Just a random question if anyone knows off the top of their head. Does the second argument to window.open, the programmable target id, need to be human readable for any sort of accessiblity purposes? As part of a bug (link below), I had to change the target from being a sort of human readable encoded thing to a GUID. If necessary, I could prefix the GUID with some almost human readable text, but it really does have to be unique.
