What on earth are interim solutions

[tarunkrsna]

Hi all....

I've been trying to get my front page to be 100% accessible and I have suceeded (well that was yesterday; see: http://www.sevamrta.com/tafe/tweedwebdesign/rapport.htm )
.. today I checked it and

http://www.ocawa.com/autotest/validate.php

says that because I have links that use target="_blank" attribute, I should use interim solutions to inform visitors that the links open in a new page.

Well, I tried putting a message after the link stating that the link opened in a new page .. that didn't work.

I looked through some of the accessibility study guides on Webdeveloper.com but there's lots of goodies there but couldn't find what I needed.

Does anyone know how to make this error a non-event? Everything else works. W3C OK for XHTML and CSS. Page looks fine in Lynx. Just this Ocawa accessibility tester is pretty finniky (and rightly so I guess, I never thought of problems that people might have by being sent to a new browser page unannounced).

It's important to me to get this page 100% perfect. I want to make all my pages 100% accessible plus this one's part of a college course on accessibility.
