How to open up a pop up window

[dinesh1985singh]

Hello everyone,

I want to open pop up window through jquery.
My jquery code is as follows:

jQuery.ajax({
url: "/signUp/twit",
type: "post",
data: "ajax=true&twitterid=" + jQuery("#profileTab #twitterid").val()",
success: function(response,status){

alert(1);
}
});
here inside success call back i want to open pop up window on some specific response.
Could someone give me an idea how to do that.And is it possible to use window.open()javascript function in jquery to open new pop up window.Because as per my knowledge we can use js functions insside jquery,but window.open() not working.


Thanks

window.open() should work fine unless you are not giving it a valid URL to open. Show us the code that you were using to open the window.

By the way, this doesn't belong in the PHP forum.

hi kovik,

here is my code:

if(jQuery("#profileTab #twitterid").val() != "")
{
alert(jQuery("#profileTab #twitterid").val() ); jQuery.ajax({
url: "/signUp/twit",
type: "POST",
// data: "ajax=true&twitterid=" + jQuery("#profileTab #twitterid").val()",
success: function(response,status){
alert(response);
if(response == 1)
{
window.open("http://www.google.co.in/","Twitter","width=650,height=500,resizable=yes,sc rollbars=yes,toolbar=yes,location=yes, status=yes,directories=yes,menubar=yes");

}



}
});

}

here every thing works fine only the pop window is not opening up by window.open();

Morever when I uncomment the data section inside ajax call nothing will happen even a single alert is not working.

Please help me if possible as soon as possible I get stuck here.

Thanks

Firstly, use [code] tags when posting code.

Secondly, the problem with the data is that you have a stray quotation mark at the end of that line. Your browser's console would be able to tell you that.

Thirdly, your window.open code looks fine. Have you tried using it without jQuery to confirm that the issue is jQuery? My guess is that your browser's pop-up blocker is stopping your window from showing.

Was it the pop-up blocker? Did I call it or what?! :D

[dinesh1985singh]

yes Kovik, it was pop Up blocker that had been blocked.
