JavaScript, not Java. A completely separate and unrelated language.

defenitly, my slip, sorry :)

Note that target="_top" is for frames, to load the page in the
outermost frame (i.e. the whole window). For a new window, the correct
value is target="_blank". If you are not in a frame, it will I believe
create a new window.

hmmm... at least in mozilla, it doesn't create a new window. so it's
only used to break out of frames, which is a very good thing for a
button to do.

Deprecated or no, putting in a target attribute is the best way to
implement this functionality, at least for the present time.
