Popup a new window in an ajax success callback when popup blocker is on

Question

I need to popup a new window (not a dialog inside the page or similar) after a ajax call succeeds. window.open() will be blocked by the popup blocker of browsers. So how to solve this?

Answer 1

You can call window.open() not inside success callback, but after ajax call has been completed (using async: false)

Answer 2

You can't. The best you can do is provide a notification link on the page when the call succeeds and open the popup when the user clicks on the link.
