Is there any way to get the old behavior back?

i am running a multipane system similar to demo9 (and demo9 exhibits
the same predilection). When i use the link menu it opens a new tab
rather than staying within the frame. This breaks the frame structure.
Those frames are named, not _blank

Yes, just what I was wishing for in order to write interactive math
textbooks using J. Has anybody documented how to embed J in HTML5
documents?

My next wish is to get J packaged for Fedora and Debian Linux, and
then wrapped for use within Sugar education software. Is anybody here
working on packaging?

Subject: [Jprogramming] JHS update available

A significant update is available for JHS.

JHS was first released before HTML5 was generally available.

JHS now has DOCTYPE for HTML5. Previously it had DOCTYPE for HTML4
transitional. This probably has no effect for modern browsers, may
break some old browsers, but is the right choice for the future and
possibly avoids browser compatibility bugs.

Before HTML5, the use of target="_blank" in either HTML or JAVASCRIPT
to open a page in a new tab was strongly deprecated and JHS conformed
to this unfortunate advice. This meant that to open a link, such as an
ijs editor, in a new page you had to click the link while holding down
ctrl+shift.

HTML5 dedeprecates (?) _blank and with ubiquitous tab support is used
in JHS to provide a more desktop application like experience. New tabs
are opened as 'expected' and it is easy to adjust your tabs and to
drag a tab away from the browser frame to create new windows as
desired.
