Q638 How can I display the results of a form in a new window opened with window.open()?

Make sure the target attribute specifies the same value as the windows open() methods 2nd parameter:

<form method="post" target="myWindow" onSubmit="window.open('about:blank','myWindow')">
...

Using about:blank loads an initial blank page, but this is not supported in all older browsers so it would be better to create your own blank page and load that instead.
