Open a New Browser With JS

Hi there guys – I have this scroller with hyper links inside, when I click on the hyperlinks it opens up in the “parent” page, however I want it to open a new “blank page. Here is the code below, any idea’s?

<script type=”text/javascript”>

//configure the below five variables to change the style of the scroller
var scrollerdelay=’3000′ //delay between msg scrolls. 3000=3 seconds.
var scrollerwidth=’150px’
var scrollerheight=’105px’
var scrollerbgcolor=’lightyellow’
//set below to ” if you don’t wish to use a background image
var scrollerbackground=’scrollerback.gif’

//configure the below variable to change the contents of the scroller
var messages=new Array()
messages[0]=”<font face=’Arial’><a href=’http://www.bbc.co.uk/wales/walestoday/’>BBC Radio Wales</a></font>”
messages[1]=”<font face=’Arial’><a href=’http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/vine/’>Radio2 Jeremy Vine Show</a></font>”
messages[2]=”<font face=’Arial’><a href=’http://www.gingerbread.org.uk/’>Gingerbread Website</a></font>”
messages[3]=”<font face=’Arial’><a href=’http://www.nice.org.uk/’>National Institute of Clinical Excellence</a></font>”
messages[4]=”<font face=’Arial’><a href=’http://www.uwcm.ac.uk/’>The University of Wales College of Medicine</a></font>”
