According to the HTML5 spec, while resolving a window.open, the new window location should be about:blank. http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#open2 http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#browsing0 In ToT WebKit, the location is /. This appears to be in WebCore/bindings/js/JSLocation.cpp which returns prettyURL() + "/", but sometimes the KURL is invalid so prettyURL() returns "".
