Just to go for semantics ;-P
Technically, it _doesn't_ work since the highlighted way to get there
doesn't work... but, it's good to know that there's an alternative
route to get there.
PS You need to have Block pop-up windows turned off to allow the
content to be displayed (I often wondered why I'd get blank pages... I
figured the advertisers were using faulty servers... it seems that
Safari bars the newly opened window from d/ling content, but not from
opening up).
