Firefox is setup to let you customize how you want it to handle popup windows. In the Options they can be set to open like normal in a new window or they can be set to open in a tab. However, JavaScript popup windows are a slight exception but can be changed so that they are treated the same way as any other popup.
- Name: browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction
- The preference name already exists and does not need to be created.
- Default Value: 2
- Possible values:
- 0 - Open JavaScript windows the same way as you have Firefox handle new windows. This is my recommendation because if you have Firefox set to open new windows in a new tab then it will treat JavaScript windows the same way.
- 1 - Allow all JavaScript windows to popup if requested.
- 2 - Open all JavaScript windows the same way as you have Firefox handle new windows unless the JavaScript call specifies how to display the window.
