Hi izlik,

try method moveTo(Xcoord, Ycoord). For that you need to hold the opened window in some variable.
E.g.
var myWin = window.open(href, windowname, 'width=400,height=200,scrollbars=yes');
myWin.moveTo(200, 200);
If you need to center it based on viewport size and window size, just count X and Y coordinates before calling moveTo.

<script type="text/javascript">

function popup(mylink, windowname,width,height) {
if (! window.focus) {
return true;
}
var href,
l = (screen.width / 2) - (width / 2),
t = (screen.height / 2) - (height / 2);
if (typeof(mylink) == 'string') {
href=mylink;
} else {
href=mylink.href;
}
window.open(href, windowname,'width=' + width + ',height=' + height + ',left=' + l + ',top=' + t + ',scrollbars=yes');
return false;
}
