Multiple-Target Hyperlinks for the Masses

DukunSakti writes "For a long time people have talked about getting browser support for multilink feature. A multilink is a link that points to more than one targets. It's useful because many times a single target is not sufficient to describe a link. Wikipedia has numerous examples of acronyms and abbreviations that expand to more than one term. Well, I got sick of waiting, and so I wrote a plugin for the excellent Wiki application PmWiki that adds the multilink feature. This is fully supported under Mozilla Firefox, but only partially under Internet Explorer."

I like the old style

I'd rather use the old way of linking multiple pages.

All of those [slashdot.org]s next to your links make your post look more like subliminal advertising than it should.

That's great

Now /. readers will be able to /. not just one website with a single click, but many websites also with a single click.

And BTW, be careful of Jeff Bezos coming right after you for this obvious - Single Click Amazon IP violation.

Err... one bug fix:

popup.innerHTML = "";
for(var i=0; i<array.length; i++)
{
popup.innerHTML += "<div><a href="'+array[i]+'"></a></div>
}
