Feedback Markup Validation Service v0.67

Hi,

I had a big discussion with a webmaster on a forum.
He said :
- target_blank is autorised with XHTML 1.1
- W3C validator is bad :-(

So I try to explain, but please excuse my faults, English is not my 
maternal language.

http://www.jsand.net/ is not my own site, so if you look at it, perhaps 
it will be corrected.
But I've saved page's source and validator's results.

The doctype is bad :

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 Strict//EN" 
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Astuces Windows XP, Programmation, Cours, Photoshop, 
Webmastering, Programmes, Hacking, Thèmes XP, etc - [JSAND]</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<meta name="title" content="JSAND" />
<meta name="author" content="Julien VAUBOURG" />
<meta name="subject" content="Informatique" />
<meta name="description" content="Astuces pour Windows Xp et autres 
versions, cours HTML, PHP, etc, apprendre à faire un site" />
<meta name="keywords" content="windows, astuces, xp, cours html, cours 
php, thèmes XP, tutoriaux, webmaster" />
<meta name="language" content="Fr" />
<meta http-equiv="imagetoolbar" content="no" />
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css_jsand.css" type="text/css" />
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" 
src="jsand.js"></script>
</head>

and there are links with target_blank in the code and some other mistakes.

Howether, validator says :

This Page Is Valid -//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 Strict//EN!



I've try with WDG validator and this one says :
