window.open

I'm trying to open a new window like so: $('#wrapper').click(function() { window.setTimeout(function() { //alert('hi'); window.open("http://example.com", "ExternalLinks", "resizable=yes, scrollbars=yes, status=yes"); }, 1000); }); This works in Firefox, but not in Chrome or Safari (so far, I've just tested on a Mac). The alert() works in all browsers, so there seems to be something preventing the window.open from executing in Safari/Chrome. Furthermore, if I remove the setTimeout and just call the window.open then it does work in all 3 browsers. It's almost like if the window.open is nested

Ok. I'm trying to login to twitter. The window is not opening in this code. The response that gets alerted is not null and is a link to a login screen. Any ideas? var url = "./twitter_login.php"; var con = createPHPRequest(); con.open("POST",url,true); con.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded"); con.send(""); var response = ""; con.onreadystatechange = function() { if(con.readyState==4 && con.status==200) { response = con.responseText; alert(response); window.open(response,"twitter","menubar=1,resizable=1,width=350,height=500"); } } The standard popup-blocker

When I'm using firefox and then using window.open('blah.com','blah','left=-30,top=-300'); , the popup opens in my second display above my first one but in chrome, the popup just opens at left=0,top=0 . Is there a reason why chrome is doing this and how would I fix the problem? Thanks! I think this is a bug in Chrome to be honest but I'm not aware of a fix at the moment as I'm new to JavaScript myself. Sorry I'm sure this not the answer you were looking for. This is a bug in Chrome when the pop-up window is opened on the secondary monitor. The Chrome folks seem to say that this is a security

I have a page with an svg tag. The page has a button called "Preview" which on clicking should open a new window with the image (svg). Below is a piece of code which works in Chrome/Firefox but not in IE (I'm using IE 9- IE9 standards mode) var w = window.open(); var svg = $('#chart'); var svgPrint = svg.cloneNode(true); svgPrint.setAttribute('xmlns','http://www.w3.org/2000/svg'); w.document.body.appendChild(svgPrint); Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Thanks. Mirko Cianfarani IE will block appending any element created in a different window context from the window context that the

We've got the following situation, running from a single domain: Page A uses window.open() to open a named window (a popup player). window.open() gives page A a reference to the window. User now reloads page A. The reference to the named window is lost. Using window.open() to "find" the window has the unfortunate side effect of reloading it (undesirable). Is there any other way to get a reference to this window? Try this: var playerUrl = 'http://my.player...'; var popupPlayer= window.open('', 'popupPlayer', 'width=150,height=100') ; if(popupPlayer.location.href == 'about:blank' ){ popupPlayer

I am using this chunk of jQuery/Javascript code on my site to open a popup window: $('#change_photo_link').click(function(){ $id = $('#id').attr('value'); window.open("photo.upload.php?id=" + $id,"Upload Photo", "menubar=no,width=430,height=100,toolbar=no"); }); This code works on Firefox and Chrome. It does not work on IE7 or IE8 (haven't tested IE6). IE pops up an error on the line window.open . Why? The error that IE gives is "Invalid Argument" and that's all. It's the space in the second parameter that's causing it. If you use "UploadPhoto" instead of "Upload Photo", it works: $('#change

I'm developing a web application that opens a popup using windows.open(..). I need to call a function on the opened window using the handle returned by "window.open", but I'm always getting the error message "addWindow.getMaskElements is not a function", as if it couldn't access the function declared on child window. This is the behavior in both IE and FF. My code looks like this: function AddEmail(target,category) { if(addWindow == null) { currentCategory = category; var left = getDialogPos(400,220)[0]; var top = getDialogPos(400,220)[1]; addWindow = window.open("adicionar_email.htm",null,
