using the href attribute

I have a <link> element with an "href" attribute.

I apply this template and my html page works to open up the link -- but in
the same browser window.

        <xsl:template match="link">
        <a href="{(_at_)url}"><xsl:apply-templates/></a>
        </xsl:template>

Since I need the link to open into a new browser window...I tried to do
that, but
I'm just not getting how the first way works and why this next one doesn't:

        <xsl:template match="link">
          <a href="javascript:window(_dot_)open{(_at_)url}">
        <xsl:apply-templates/></a>
        </xsl:template>

Thanks,

Kathy
