I'm not HTML expert, but such HTML link should work:
<a href="http://www.dot.com" TARGET="_blank"> dot.com </a>

I don't know about others but I hate sites that do that.

I agree that those websites are very anoying... What I would suggest would be to
load a different file.html in which there would be two frames, a little one in
the top for "Go Back the My Website", Simple, Small and not Anoying. And the
rest of the page goes to the linked website...

What do you think?

First off, loading someone else's pages in your frameset is a Very Not
Good Idea. (I believe this has actually been declared illegal.. somewhere.)

Second, Frames Suck(TM).

Third.. what, you can't use the "Back" button, you need a link to take
you back to the page you were just on? Sheesh... :P

hmm, how about a bit of javascript form to give the users a preferred
setting (same window or new). Default to same window. Could even save the
choice as a cookie?

I dunno about new windows- it's a pain when it's inflicted on you and
abused, and you can always right-click, but it might be nice to have the
choice.

I think it's alright if the main focus of the site is something other than
links - if you're at site and there are occasional references in the text to
other urls, offsite, then it's okay. You don't really want to lose the main
body of what you're reading. www.guardian.co.uk is a good example of this.
But if yahoo did it by default it would be a pain.

The only time I like a new window opened is when the site uses several
windows as it's layout. When I click a link it brings up a full page
site in a dinky little menu window, then I have to right click for
a new window anyhow.
