Popup not working on Chrome 18

[Sa'ar Zac Elias]

Not affecting Safari, or Chrome 17 or 19.
Chrome 18 is problematic with moveTo and resizeTo, making the window to not show up.
See ​this and ​that. Since that part of the code is not needed in Chrome 18, I propose to avoid it altogether. Note that WebKit 535 is maintained since Chrome 13 till Chrome 18.

I wonder if we really need to the chunk of code for popup position, consider that the position is already a ​cross-browser feature for window.open, so we can simply remove it.

I believe that there's a reason this code is there, so to avoid wider testing on this simple issue, I would leave it there. We could definitely consider removing it later, but for now let's make sure we don't cause any new problems.

Fixed with [7448].

This appears to be broken again in 20.0.1132.34 beta-m. :/

So if the 7448 workaround was just to work around version 18, hopefully it won't be an issue when 20 is released.

Wouldn't be quite sure about that: ​http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=2091 They restored the old behavior, the issue has been in "Won't fix" status for 4 years and the only comment by chromium devs is "This is by design". Hope you are right, it seems a silly behavior to me.

I have just checked Chrome 20 and this issue has showed up again in CKEditor and CKFinder.

Sorry for opening already closed ticked.

For Chrome 20 new ticket #9069 was opened.
