Target Windows

Targeting withing HTML is accomplished by means of the TARGET
attribute. This attribute can be added to a variety of HTML tags to target the links referred to by that tag.
The attribute is of the form:

<a href="URL" target="Window_Name"> ... </a>

(Netscape Navigator 2.0* open a new window.)
<a href="window.htm" target="window_name">
Open A Window!
</a>
Open A Window!


TARGET in an A tag.

This is very straightforward. The anchor tag normally specifies a link to be loaded when the active item
is clicked on, adding the TARGET attribute to the
anchor tag forces the load of that link into the targeted window. Example:

<A HREF=" url " TARGET=" window_name ">Targeted Anchor</A>

TARGET in the BASE tag.

This is used when you want all (or most) of the links in a document to be targeted to the same window.
In this case the TARGET attribute establishes a default window_name that all links in
this document will be targeted to. This default is of course overridden by specific
instances of the TARGET attribute in individual anchor tags. Example:

<BASE TARGET=" window_name ">

TARGET in the AREA tag.

The IETF Internet-Draft of Client-Side Image Maps defines an area tag.
This tag describes a shaped area in a client-side image map,
and provides the link that should be followed when the user clicks there.
Adding the TARGET attribute to the area tag forces the load of that link
into the targeted window. Example:

<AREA SHAPE=" shape " COORDS=" x,y,... " HREF=" url " TARGET=" window_name ">

TARGET in the FORM tag.

The form tag normally displays the results of a form submission in the same window
the form was submitted from. By adding the TARGET attribute
to the form tag, the result of the form
submission is instead loaded into the targeted window. Example:

<FORM ACTION=" url " TARGET=" window_name ">

Allowed TARGET names

The window name specified by a TARGET attribute must begin with an alpha-numeric
character to be valid. All other window names will be ignored.
Exception: There are magic target names
that all begin with the underscore character.


Magic TARGET names

These names all begin with the underscore character.
Any targeted window name beginning with underscore which is not one
of these names, will be ignored.

TARGET="_blank"

This target will cause the link to always be loaded
in a new blank window. This window is not named.

TARGET="_self"

This target causes the link to always load in the same window the anchor
was clicked in. This is useful for overriding a globally assigned BASE target.

TARGET="_parent"

This target makes the link load in the immediate FRAMESET parent of
this document. This defaults to acting like "_self" if the document has no parent.

TARGET="_top"

This target makes the link load in the full body of the window. This defaults to
acting like "_self" if the document is already at the top.
It is useful for breaking out of an arbitrarily deep FRAME nesting.
