My site provides listings (ads, for all intents and purposes) of wedding vendors for brides/grooms. In coding these listings into my site's vendor guides, I've always included the
target="new" tag so that the users isn't taken away from my site when visiting the site of an advertiser. A new advertiser I'm working with mentioned to me today that this may be a problem for him because he believes that some versions of the Google Toolbar will not open these links when this
targetcode in insterted into a
form (apparently, the
target code being inserted
into a FORM is the key here)...that it will then treat a form with this
target code, when executed (when the user clicks
submit), as if it contains, according to my advertiser, "malicious code."
I am a Google Toolbar user and, upon testing the form, had no problem with the older version I was using. Today I dumped it and downloaded the latest Google Toolbar and still have no problem. Does anyone have any familiarity with this issue or have any insight into this?
Thanks,
Kim
The "mock up" page with the form is at
