window.opener.focus() problem in FF5+

I'm opening new window with next code: window.open(url,pageName1,"menubar=1,resizable=1,scrollbars=1,status=yes,width=1050,height=820");

so window is not modal

In new window I'm calling:

if (window.opener) window.opener.focus();

in IE, Chorme, FF3.6 parent window become in focus, BUT not in FF5 or FF6, how I can move focus to parent window?

Solution

  • FF4+ prevernt window raising and lower by default, you can enable in options: Tools->Options->Content->Advanced... (in "Enable JavaScript" row)->Check "Raise or lower windows"
