Hi Janelle Regardless of your window philosophy, I think using target="top" is asking for trouble. That is a common target for pages with frames. I would at least suggest using a target name that is not part of the frame architecture. That is why most people used target=_blank". There are better javascript options to avoid using target, which is deprecated in XHTML and is asking html to do behaviors instead of letting javascript do it.
Janelle said: I find it very confusing. The policy we use for our corporate website is to open a new browser window for external links with target="top" title="This link will open in a new browser window." ****************************************************** The discussion list for http://webstandardsgroup.org/ See http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm for some hints on posting to the list & getting help ******************************************************
