still you are mixing up server side actions 
with client side actions. You should get a 
better understanding how HTTP works to avoid
such ideas.

Browser(User typed 
address/klicks link) --- Request --> Server
                                     (prepares output
                                     by means of python, ZPT,
                                     DTML) Returns a big string
                                     with content
Browser(parses, displays   <--- Response ----/
whatever it gets from
Server, if embedded
Scripts, run them,
issue a request for each
embedded element (images,
objects, scripts, css)   --- Request[1....n] -> Server
                         <---Response[1....n] ---

If link has a target,
Browser uses the information
to decide where it schould
load the response from server
into. The server does not
know about this.
