View / Edit in new window from _list page

Are there any code snippets that allow View or Edit links (from a _list page) to open in a new window either through javascript or even a right-click?
I think the reason this is not implemented as an option is because _list.php is typically refreshed after the Edit.
Although in most cases this might be desirable, I've had folks comment on the following. Scenario:

  • User has diplayed 100 (or more ) records on the _list page.
  • They have to edit a number of records.
  • After clicking "Back to List," _list.php is re-queried, causing them to scroll back down the page and "visually' not recall the last record they were working on.
  • If they were able to edit records in a new window and reload the _list page when done, this would not be an issue.
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.

In PHPRunner 3.1 you can proceed to visual editor and modify Edit link on the List page the following way:

<TD align=middle><A href="cars_edit.php?{$row.1editlink}" target=_blank>Edit</A> &nbsp; </TD>
