Summary REGRESSION: opener broken when link targets new window

Reported 2006-09-12 16:00:53 PDT
Bug #10466 fixed a problem where links that targeted new windows would not open their content in a new window. The patch for that bug also re-coded setting of the window opener. But that patch seems to have broken use of the opener property. Reference to opener in a window targeted to _blank now causes the javascript error "undefined value". This _did_ work properly in Safari prior to the time when bug #10466 arose, but now thta #10466 is fixed, this has been broken. I'll try to come with a test case of some sort. For now, it's clear in my code that it's busted. r16330.
