Open

By Stephen Chapman, About.com

Definition: The open method is usually used with windows objects to open a new browser (popup) window. This is not a reserved word so you can declare your own variable or function called open but if you do then you will not be able to use this method.
Examples:
mywin = window.open(page,winname,parms);
