Putting the JQuery library on your server is the “hard” part–then you get to “set it and forget it” by pasting in the scripts inside your elements.

I am perfectly cable of deciding which of my links should open into new windows, and I resent being expected to “settle” for XHTML Transitional simply because I wish to continue to!

There are PLENTY of cases where we want to provide links for a user but we do not want them to leave the current page. (And where leaving the page would, in fact, represent an error condition.) Consider, for instance, an order checkout process that contains a link to the BBB, or a bank balance transfer process that allows you to "click for details" on a specific account. Etc, etc. What is it with people who insist we should *always* let the user decide whether to pop up a new window or not?!?

I've witnessed that they don't. I don't mind saying that because the users who don't know what they are doing would never come across this blog.

Unless UI specifically asks for a new window, I will let the user choose. Both jquery and prototype can be used for ensuring some links are opened in new windows.
