Except that target="_blank" is deprecated in xhtml 1.1, so to make sure you're markup validates, you need to use javascript to make links open in a new window/tab.

One way to do it is like this.

$("a[rel='external']").click(function(){
           this.target = "_blank";
       });

Maybe because 'rel="external"' doesn't have any meaning or functionality ?

The proper syntax with functionality would be <a target="_blank" href="http://www.google.com";>google</a> but that's just HTML; it has nothing to do with jQuery
