well actal, blank is targeting an ifriam wich it cannot find, so the broiwser defults to a new window, athogh this isnt the case in all browsers, the actal code to call a blank page, or connect to an eliment, requires one of 4 functions each prosed by a _, so the correct w3 standard tagrget for a new page would be

I tried just using something like target="new" a while ago because it was quicker to type :p and in firefox it wouldnt open a new window. so _blank seems to be the standard way.

thats odd "/ firefox usealy defults to a new window with an untarged fraim for me "/ must be set diffently in your config.. or your useing the enhaced tabs plugin, wich cause a number of problems simlar to that one, aka u cant open a href opertaed popupbox, annoying for simplys on ipb for exsample.
