force target=blank for all anchor tags on page

is there a way to force all links on a page to open in a new browser window
without declaring them with a target=_blank attribute?

some kind of global thing? I thought i saw it in a stylesheet once, but
can't find it now.

thanks

I think the base html tag should be able to do that.

you can try something like this on the client side:

<script type="text/javascript">

</script>

you don't want to open postback links in a new window, and probably not
links with "#" as the href either

cheers

Yup. Put this in the <head> tag:

<base target="_blank">

to write this programatically:

<base runat="server" id="base1" />

....

void Page_Load()
{
base1.Attributes["target"]="_blank";
}
