Window.open invalid argument

Just a hint about a simple problem could happen to you while writing javascript code to open a new browser window using window.open, it may give you the following error message box

windowopenerror

in case you wrote it like that:

window.open("http://www.google.com", "This Is My Page", "status=1, width=300,height=500");

where is the wrong argument?

its the name argument "This Is My Page"

You can write it like that (without spaces):

window.open("http://www.google.com", "ThisIsMyPage", "status=1, width=300,height=500");

Note:

It wont give you any errors in firefox in both cases, this error just happen in IE.

window.open good article
