Javascript – open custom Site Actions link in a new window (SharePoint)

javascriptmosssharepoint

When using custom actions in SharePoint (for the Site Actions menu) how can I make it so that the links will open up in a new window?

I have tried an approach using jQuery that would attach a hover event via .live() to replace the window.location with a window.open call — however this proved to be troublesome as it refused to work in IE6 (which a large portion of our users are still using…).
