“href target” is not XHTML 1.0 valid but very useful.
With mootools adding the target-property afterwards is very easy:
window.addEvent('domready', function(){
if ($$('a.external').length > 0) {
$$('a.external').each(function(element, i) {
element.setProperty('target', '_blank');
});
}
}
if ($$('a.external').length > 0) {
$$('a.external').each(function(element, i) {
element.setProperty('target', '_blank');
});
}
}
