Shouldn't that be "return false"?


I would think so, else if JavaScript is enabled both the popup will load AND the main page will load 'mypage.html'. You want it to return false so that if JavaScript is enabled the main page link will be ignored but if JavaScript is disabled the onclick event will be ignored and the fall back will be that 'mypage.html' loads in the main window. 


What if javascript is enabled but popups are disabled?


You're screwed! ;-)
That's a good reason NOT to use a popup right?
