Bhatt,
     Since the effect of holding the shift key while clicking a link 
is to open that link in a new browser window, there are various ways 
you may accomplish this using JavaScript.  For example, the following 
two links demonstrate the basic techniques involved.  The second link 
is a toggle which determines whether the first link will open in the 
current window or in a new window.
<p><a href="test.html" id="dynalink">Test HTML</a></br>
<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="
 if (this.firstChild.data=='_self')
   document.getElementById('dynalink').target = this.firstChild.data 
= '_blank';
 else
   document.getElementById('dynalink').target = this.firstChild.data 
= '_self';
 return false;">_self</a></p>
Take care,
Dave Clark
