I tried window.open and want the javascript to open a new browser with new url and wants the new window to be resizable and scrollable

i tried

window.open("someurl", '_blank','windowOpenTab', 'scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=1000,height=580,left=0, top=0');

Edit1: tried window.open(url, '_blank','windowOpenTab', 'scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=1000,height=580,left=0,top=0'); still no luck

read about window.open from http://www.javascript-coder.com/window-popup/javascript-window-open.phtml but no luck :(

According to MDN you can only have 3 parameters in that function.

window.open(strUrl, strWindowName[, strWindowFeatures]);

Demo here - I droped the '_blank' and made a demo with small window just to make the scrollbar showup.

So you can use:

window.open("someurl", 'windowOpenTab', 'scrollbars=1,resizable=1,width=1000,height=580,left=0,top=0');
