Hi,
The alternate is to use JavaScript:
window.open('url to open','window name','attribute1,attribute2')
IMHO, if a significant proportion of users are requesting this feature, you
should offer users the option of a new window with one button and the same
window or a tab with just a text link.
This option will get a number of standardistas upset - but look at the total
site traffic, not just the requests for this "feature", and then make your
decision.
