FYI: Using Reserve Target Names
The following target names (in italics) are reserved in the HTML specifications for special functions and cannot be used as independent target names:
- target = "_blank" - This forces the document to open a new browser window.
- target = "_self" - This causes a new page to open within the same
frame.
- target = "_parent" - This forces the document to go to the base frame window which is the window containing the <frameset> container.
- target = "_top" - This forces the document to open a window
without a frame and at the top of the page.
