    <a href="blah.html" target="_blank">click</a>

    Will open it in a new window. Whether or not it opens in a tab I would say is down to the client's browser.

    The issue with new tabs is that not all browsers support tab viewing, why I dont know but they dont. I know my browser is set to open all "new window" or the "target=_blank" cmds in a new tab but thats a personal setting in firefox.

    Im sure once tab browsing becomes the standard, basicly when IE starts using it, that something will be added.
