If you use this code, the popup with not be blocked (or will, hopefully, not totally screw people over if they choose to open in a new tab instead).

with this technic the window will open at the default size wich you can't control to specify a size you will need to use a popup (window.open in javascript) but that can be blocked by popup killer

Thanks.

That works.... and now I have another question.... is there
a way to make it so that the window that opens doesn't entirely
cover up my existing page.?

In other words... can I tell the link to open the linked
page at say 75% of actual size?.. so that the user can see that
a separate new page has indeed opened.

Thanks

If you're using XHTML strict, you need to control it through scripting instead of the markup. Any language below XHTML 1.0 Strict you can use the target attribute as Julia said.

With XHTML 1.0 Strict, you have to extend the DTD to use the target attribute, or use scripting. See Accessify.com for the full details.

All you need to do is add target="_blank" to your link
