Attribute for <BASE ...>
TARGET = "_blank" | "_parent" | "_self" | "_top" | frame name

Usage Recommendation
thumbs up use it

TARGET sets the default target for hyperlinks on the page. TARGET uses the same values as <A TARGET="...">. Consider a framed page in which the lower frame is named "CONTENT" and the upper frame uses this tag: 

<BASE TARGET="CONTENT">

All the links on the page will, without using any TARGET attribute of their own, target the lower frame.

this code produces this 
<BASE TARGET="CONTENT">
this page
