Talking about gsi_popup? I should know that one. ;-)

That extension will add a pop-up to a page. What I now want is a page 
that is opened in a new window when used in a menu.

Think of a sites main menu, which includes a "help" menu item. Now 
imagine you want to open the help page itself in a new window. I don't 
want a page that opens the help page. Instead of href="index.php?idxxx" 
I want href="javascript:window.open('index.php?id=xxx')" done by simply 
choosing an approriate page type or perhaps choosing an option somewhere.

AFAIK, this can only be done by changing the code for the MENU content 
objects as they will have to know either the type or the setting of this 
magic flag of the pages.
