    you can try to place "target='_self'" in the few links you want to open in the same window. it might override the 'base' decloration.

    please note: "target" within the "base" xhtml element is deprecated, now.

    and css doesn't control opening windows, pop-up's, etc, it is a visual style language. so there isn't a way to do it, purely in css.

    you might consider javascript for, or a little php.

    i have to ask though, why open things in new windows? why not just utilize the current browser space? what in the design makes it worth relying on seperate windows? just as a personal opinion, i usually leave sites that continually open new windows.
