popup windows are used within confluence.

currently popups in confluence are achieved with:

<a href="#" onclick="window.open('http...','..','..')">linked text</a>

This is broken if:

• I right click and select "open in new window" the new window is blank
• I try to bookmark the link
• If I'm half way the page and I left click, - it scrolls me back to the top. (javascript should return false; to stop this)

There is a better way to do these links:

<a
href="http://google.com/"
onclick="window.open(this.href, 'popupwindow',
'width=400,height=300,scrollbars,resizable');
return false;"
>
Click me any way you desire, now or later, bookmarked or not.
I will not attempt to control you, nor punish you, for I am a
simple hyperlink; eager to do your bidding, while remaining ever
helpful. I anticipating desires, but never trample possibilities.
This is the way of the Link.
