Re: Requirement Or Nice To Have: When Links Leave A Site

hey Jim,

The technique "G201: Giving users advanced warning when opening a new
window <https://www.w3.org/TR/WCAG20-TECHS/G201.html>" says it's
connected to "Guideline 3.2: Make Web pages appear and operate in
predictable ways".

Is that helpful?
