The actual problem was an invalid name for the second argument. As an example, if you have a line like:

HTML

window.open('/somefile.html', 'a window title', 'width=300');

The problem was 'a window title' as it is not valid. It worked fine with the following line:

HTML

window.open('/somefile.html', '', 'width=300');

In fact, Microsoft does not support a name as second argument. When you look at the official documentation page at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms536651%28v=vs.85%29.aspx[^], you see that Microsoft only allows the following arguments, If using that argument at all:

_blank
_media
_parent
_search
_self
_top
