I have coded my webpage with xhtml and css with a "Strict DOCTYPE" and i have also been using target="_blank" on the links in my webpage and can't get the webpage to validate because of this. Does anyone know of a JavaScript equivalent of target="_blank" that will pass the validation procedure. Thanks. DC
