Problem
I want link to be open in new window but when i click on write_review in IE it is opening in new tab. I have checked for spaces in the arguments which are causing the problem. But no problem with that. I have checked on URL :- Javascript window.open is blocked by IE popup blocker But its not working for me.. This is my working code in another browser. ``` // Opening pop-up window for the write review jQuery('a#write_review').click(function() { var w = 1000; var h = 650; var left = (screen.width/2)-(w/2); var top = (screen.height/2)-(h/2); var planid=$(this).parent().parent().find('input[name="data[PlanIdsel]"]').val(); var providerid=$(this).parent().parent().find('input[name="data[ProviderIdsel]"]').val(); var rep=$(this).parent().parent().find('input[name="data[Repsel]"]').val(); var url = "<?php echo $this->webroot ?>"+"enrollments/write_rating/"+planid+"?Rep="+rep+"&providerId="+providerid; window.open(url, 'subWind', 'status, scrollbars, resizable, dependent, width='+w+', height='+h+', left='+left+', top='+top); }); ``` Please guide me or correct me..
