There not called pop-up blockers for nothing. You would be better off using an overlay rather than opening a new page.

thanks Thorpe..

 

But i need to open the page in to a new window.. so as to link it to other data..

Are you positive? Overlays give the impression of a new window without actually being one. For this reason they are not blocked by pop-up blockers.

 

Otherwise, your just going to have to live with the pop-up blockers I'm afraid. People have them on for a reason, they don't want pop-ups.
