title: window.open opening new tab instead of new window in IE 11
body: <p>I have an ASP.NET application which uses window.open.
  It opens a tab instead of a new window. This happens in IE 11. In IE 8 it works fine.</p>
  
  <p>Since we are moving to IE 11 we want this to work on IE 11 too.</p>
  
  <pre><code>var url = "reportViewer.aspx?reportname=" + $("#hfReportName").val() + "&amp;schoolDistrict=" + district
              window.open(url, "_blank");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have done my research and <a href="http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?298537-windows-open()-function-opens-new-tab-instead-of-new-window-in-IE11&amp;s=8cdd7fedc8128c2fccf5f9c578be515d" rel="nofollow">here is what I found.</a></p>
  
  <p>I am not sure if that is the right way of doing this. I want to do this through code. Any idea how I can do this. Let me know. thanks in advance.</p>
