It s not really something you need jQuery to do  There is a very simple plain old javascript method for doing this   window open  http   www google com   GoogleWindow    width 800  height 600      That s it   The first arg is the url  the second is the name of the window  this should be specified because IE will throw a fit about trying to use window opener later if there was no window name specified  just a little FYI   and the last two params are width height   EDIT  Full specification can be found in the link mmmshuddup provided

Those are by no means the same  The first will simply send you to whatever URL you have assigned to window location href  in the same window you re currently in    The second makes a GET AJAX request   Try this page  http   www codebelt com jquery open-new-browser-window-with-jquery-custom-size   It gives a great example on how to open a new window    If you wish to use raw javascript then this is what you re looking for   window open URL name specs replace    As seen in http   www w3schools com jsref met win open asp
