Tom, no-no-no!!! Fuzzy is right that you shouldn't require JS when there
is a simple solution. 

Ok, some people don't have browsers with JS support, some have turned it
off (for whatever reasons). Besides those, there are quite a few of
those, who use 'shift+click' to open a window and there's nothing more
annoying than a new one with something like "open.window(. . .)" or
"javascript:Start('definition.html')" in the address bar. 

That's no fun! After all -- it isn't hard to write an onclick() event. 

Bert already said, how that is done, but there is a through and a very
good article on that topic for those interested:
