Hello world,
I would like to write a link for an external web site, but I don't find any
solution to replace the target attribute or onclick attribute (with
javascript).
Is there any issues ?
I would like to know if there is a validator project for XHTML 2 ?
Thanks all.
PS: sorry for the mistakes, I'm french... so I don't speak well in
english... :s

You mean you want to open a new window? Chances are your users don't,
but what you can do is get Javascript to attach an onclick event to
elements of a chosen class, which keeps your code a lot cleaner.
Use the addEventListener function:
http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/dom_el_ref31.html
That way, people without Javascript still get the link in the current
window.
You really should leave the "open a new window" decision to the user,
though.

Ok I will do this method.

It's a good idea, but for some links I can't do it : for example the the
validator's image which is in my menu.
I can't add a message in my menu, it's not pretty.

You don't need a message. The user should assume a link will open in the
current window unless they ask otherwise.

Fine.
(That is, you need to remove them, not replace them. No matter which HTML
version you use.)
Technically, onclick is part of XHTML 1.1 but needs to be written
literally as onclick, not e.g. onClick. The situation is the same in all
versions of XHTML.

None needed. XHTML 2 documents can be validated using a markup validator
as soon as someone writes a DTD for it. But XHTML 2 drafts are nowhere
near such a stage.
