Andrew,

Your collection is quite nice, and a definite help for those of us just
beginning the journey down the path of XHTML-compliance.

I have a suggestion regarding the STRICT removal of target (at least
target="_blank") from anchors... granted, it's not CSS or HTML, but it does
perform the same function of the now-removed tag:

<.script type="text/javascript">
    function newwin(url)
        {

newwindow=window.open(url,'name','directories=1,location=1,menubar=1,resizab
le=1,scrollbars=1,status=1,toolbar=1');
        if (window.focus) {newwindow.focus()}
    }
</script>
<.a href="javascript:newwin('url')"></a>

Not sure if JavaScript solutions are part of your consideration, but
considering how many of my sites use secondary windows for off-site
navigation, this script has come in VERY handy...


Good work on the comparison!
Kehvan
