    Hi Guys,

    I am stuck at one of this trick done in JS on PHP. I have been trying to figure out a solution for it but have been unsuccessful.

    When a user clicks on "View Code & Open Site", the new browser opens in a new tab in the background. the current tab stays as is. Can someone help me in figuring how this is done?

    It uses a pop under. Usually something like
    // opens the new window
    var a = window.open('somepage','','window.open options')
    // blur the opened window
    a.blur()
    // return focus to this window (the opener)
    window.focus()

    You'll notice that this doesnt work quite right in firefox as firefox 3.6+ (4 and up) have disabled the use of focus, and various resize methods.
