Background:
I am teaching myself HTML using the resources available on the web. I tried creating my own HTML sites from scratch, which was fun but time-consuming to learn and I needed to get this website up sooner rather than later. So, I created a website using a template and a site builder made available to me by my web host, but I wasn't satisfied with the fact I couldn't replace the stock photos. I resorted to using iWeb on my Mac, which is currently in test mode right now. What I would like to do is make the links on the page for the contact me form and sibeliusmusic.com open in a separate window. I think iWeb creates XML, which I don't know at all. So all I am really looking for is XML code that would open the link in a new window.

Here's the code for the page (section in question is at the bottom), and the address is www.test.carlsauter.com/About.html

By the time he was 16, he was teaching piano lessons to several students and studying with Lincoln Mayorga (a pedagogical descendent of Beethoven and Czerny, among his many credentials). After high school, Carl went to Bible school, where he was the accompanist for the choir his first year and intern to the music department for the second year. After graduating with a two year diploma he continued his studies at Philadelphia Biblical University. While there, he studied composition with Dr. Daniel Barta, ultimately completing a Bachelor of Music in Composition and a Bachelor of Science in Bible. Carl helped to fund his education by working for the university as the Music Theory Teaching Assistant, and also in the Audio-visual department, providing the music department with recordings of all their concerts and recitals, not to mention running live sound for many of the University events. </div>

At his senior recital, the PBU Chorale performed two of his choral works under his direction. </div>

It's XHTML, an unholy alliance between HTML and XML. For your purposes, there is no difference between HTML and XHTML. You use Transitional so you can use target="_blank".
http://htmlhelp.com/faq/html/links.html#new-window

The use of the XML declaration at the top of the document will put IE6 in Quirks Mode (as will anything before the doctype). If you have problems with how the page displays in that browser, this could be the reason.
