"window.open" Problems to run with IE

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 26.2006

Hello, I’m having some problem with this code:

<a href=”#” onClick=”window.open(‘news/170306.htm’,’News – 17.03.2006′,’height=310, width=450′); return false;”>Read more…</a>

The problem is that when I run the page with any version of IE and try to click on “Read more…”, there is no pop-up coming, nothing happens. It only reads that “site has problems” in the left corner of the IE window.
But the thing is that the popups works fine on Opera! I’ve tried to run the page from other comps as well but it has the same problem!

@TheBearMayMar 26.2006 — Looks like you have to remove the punctuation also:

&lt;a href="#" onClick="window.open('news/170306.htm','News17032006','height=310, width=450'); return false;"&gt;Read more...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/body&gt;

Success!
