Summary Javascript window.open does not allow title change

Reported 2005-08-30 04:55:28 PDT
The following Javascript creates a new window and writes HTML into it to set the title: msgWindow=window.open("","","menubar=yes,scrollbars=no,status=yes,width=300,height=300"); msgWindow.document.write("<html><head><title>Message window<\/title><\/head><\/html>"); msgWindow.document.close(); Unfortunately, under Safari the title never changes (IE / FireFox under Mac & Windows works okay). Executing the following Javascript after creating the window to try and change the window title also fails: msgWindow.document.title = "123";

Confirmed with ToT WebKit. The title of the newly created window is not set.

Inability to set the title is actually a bug in Safari, not WebKit. Bug 3524 is kept open to track other closely related issues, though. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 3524 ***
