Default Spawning a new window - fastest way

Hi all -
Im looking for a solution to a faster opening of a new browser window.
I have a page I wish to open in a new browser window and have been trying all methods - and all work(javascript, winpop, ahref-blank etc)

But some are painfully slow -even on BBand.
Using winpop seems quick but I may run into popup blockers. (BTW - this is a user selected resource - not an annoying window) The resource is on a different website.

For instance open a link placed by readers in the Forum and its nice and quick -- pleeeeaaase whats the technique - many other methods leave me hitting the red cross to stop it after waiting 15-30 seconds :)

Thanks for any help.
Keep well

Are you encountering the problem with a javaScript 'window.open' or a simple target="_blank" ?

This works w/o pop blocker issues:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
<!--
function go(theURL,winName,features) {
window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}
//-->
</script>
Google

You'll need to customize the window features you want.

Hi John - sorry about the delay in replying.
Thanks for that.
Thats a vast improvement on speed.
I honestly dont know what the problem was/is.
I had been trying a similar js that seemed to take ages to load the page. I suspect that some speed issues may be cos I have cookies blocked and that affects loadups - not sure.
But thanks - I'll go with this for now.
