target="new" ins't valid HTML

Use target="_blank" instead.

I thought `target="new"` would open a new window if one named "new" didn't already exist. But that might be 4.0-era behavior. – Frank Schmitt Mar 19 '10 at 20:01

I presume you're talking about an anchor tag, so make that target="_blank"

Then show your code. It absolutely *does* work if you're using anchor tags. Everyone here has given you the same answer, so either your question is incomplete or misleading or else we're all just dunces. The over/under is not in your favor on this one. :) – Robusto Mar 19 '10 at 18:51

target="_blank" should work
- unless you have a some software running which is preventing a pop up to be opened...
