Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.0; rv:2.0b8pre) Gecko/20101114 Firefox/4.0b8pre Content dynamically added to window created with window.open() not displayed Steps:- 1. copy the script below ===== JS Script ===== 2. Goto http://w3l.sourceforge.net/eval.html 3. paste clipboard content to first TEXTAREA 4. press "do" button Expected:- New window should open, then in 1 seconds it should display "changed 1" in 2 seconds it should display "changed 2" as second para in 3 seconds the page title should display content of innerhtml Actual:- only page title changes in 3 seconds the page title display content of innerhtml ===== JS Script ===== function abc() { var win = open(); setTimeout(timeout1, 1000); setTimeout(timeout2, 2000); setTimeout(timeout3, 3000); function timeout1() { win.document.title = "changed 1"; win.document.body.innerHTML = "<p>changed 1</p>"; } function timeout2() { win.document.title = "changed 2"; var n = win.document.createElement("p"); var t = win.document.createTextNode("changed 2"); n.appendChild(t); win.document.body.appendChild(n) } function timeout3() { win.document.title = win.document.body.parentNode.innerHTML; } } abc()

But if I modify code to say var win = open("about:blank"); it works
