Wrong. This link is a dead link for anyone without Javascript or
who wants to operate securely. It is also invisible to search
engines. It is a WCAG failure - priority 1, I think.
If you have to do this, do it like this:
<a href="help.html"
onclick="openHelpWindow('help.html'); return false"
href="help.html"
title="Help on how to use this page (pops-up if Javascript enabled)">Help</A>
Your others examples suggest that you fail the "provide alternatives
to scripting" multiple times.
