My button:

<input type="button" name='save_as' value="Сохранить как" onclick="window.open('save_as.php','_blank')">

Despite the fact that there is a _blank save_as.php page opens in a new tab, and not in a new window.
Tell me, please, what is my mistake and how to make the page open in a new browser window?

    No From the point of view of javascript, the browser window and tab are the same thing.

    Decides where it is more convenient for him to open the page - the user.

    In the Chrome browser, new tabs always open up; this was once the main feature of the browser.

    In Firefox, tabs open by default - but this is configured on the main settings page:

    In IE, new windows open by default, but this is also configurable:

    If you really need to open a new window, you can use the open call specifying the parameters in the third argument. But better not do that.

    • In general, thanks to your comment about the third argument, I set the width and height of the window being opened and got what I wanted. Thank. =) - Yulenka
