Problem poping new window using setTimeout

It is actually a form that i am submitting with target=’_blank’.

I want to submit the form into a new window, after a delay, and st the smae time redirect the original window to another page.

Works fine in test environment, but then on a live server, firefox blocks the form submitting and just redirects the original page.

I realise these are security features so that developers don’t abuse popups, but is there anyway i can achieve what i want?
