About opening of links in new tabs or browser windows (Features)

Hi shian,

your code is invalid and that's the point. Of course, browsers may have a "tolerance" level and will "support" the deprecated attribute. Changing from strict to transitional solves this problem, the resulting code is valid. […]


My code is invalid only according to canonical/arbitrary rule and that's the point.

Nope, it isn’t. Of course, you are free to modify the scripts in your installation.

If all of your users aren’t handicapped (requiring a Braille-line of even a screen reader), fine. Opening links in a new window is extremely confusing in such installations. Hence, in the standard installation of mlf we will not change to doc-type.
