HTML4-Error with attribute TARGET ?

Dear W3C,

When validating my HTML-sites I got as result, that there is no 
attribute "TARGET" allowed in HTML 4.01 Strict.
But how shell I otherwise describe a reference's target?

Sincerelly,
   Peter Liske.

PS: Following the original result-message:

This page is not Valid HTML 4.01 Strict!
Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML 
parser.

Line 25, column 28: there is no attribute "TARGET" (explain...).
