Dynamic Redirects

I'm working on a module that needs to create dynamic redirects. For starters, I've installed the Redirect module, which allows me to create static redirects via the admin panel (and API for further development). I'm finding that although it does redirect to external sites, it only redirects within the current window and I'd like the redirect to occur in a new window. I'm thinking this may require some javascript script as well, but maybe I'm missing something or another module is better suited to my needs.

Seeking thoughts and advice from the group.......

Active trails between two different menus

What I have:
A primary menu (one level depth) at the top of the page.
Some secondary menus to the right, that changes depending on primary links (controlled via Visibility).

Primary links to stay active when secondary links activated.

How to set a menu to not cache in Drupal 6

Hello Everyone,
I have been working with the new Drupal 6 hook_menu, and have discovered that hook_menu in D6 no longer accepts $may_cache or !$may_cache as arguments. I have a menu which writes out some links information dynamically, and I can't figure out how to stop it from caching the menu.

I have searched for an answer and I found a very vague reference to the use of hook_init and hook_link_save, but there was no example of how to implement this. Does anyone know how to to it properly?

Thanks,
