As others have said, you cannot force that. However, what you _CAN_ do
is offer some sort of instructions eg:
<p>If you would like to see these links in a new tab or window, consult
your browser's documentation...</p>
You see, there are people like me who use mouse gestures, and therefore
never look up at the menu bar. I just gesture until I a) figure out
there is no back button or b) I just get pissed off and close the
window/tab and the offending web site that did it in the first place.
