More New Window Woes

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 30.2005

Guessing one of you will spot my mistake in about 5 seconds. This is the code:

<a href=”javascript:window.open(‘http://www.msn.com’,’popup’,’toolbars=1,height=500,width=500′)”>Open
Window</a>

It opens a new window just as it should, however, when it does, the contents of the parent window are replaced with [object].

What have I missed doing?

<a href="http://www.msn.com" onclick="javascript:window.open(this.href,'popup','toolbars=1,height=500,width= 500'); return false;">Open

Window</a>

@betheballauthorMar 30.2005 — Thank you. That resolved it. If I am not mistaken, your version is also a more accessible solution, isn't it?
