<![CDATA['openBrowserWindow' opens more than expected]]>Hi, since the new Opera version 85 the tag

<a href="#" onClick="openBrowserWindow('window.html','','scrollbars=no,resizable=no,width=920,height=700,top=40,left=80')">

in some cases opens not only the expected small 'window.html' with the specified parameters but also a full additional browser window with the content of the source page from which the 'window.html' was opened.

Windows 10
Opera 85.0.4341.60

Thanks @burnout426

I can confirm this is happening on Linux/Chromebook for Opera's Desktop Browser ... also in Opera 86 just released today.

Bookmark this demo page

Close all tabs

Open the bookmarked page and click the link 'Opera forums' on it

In my case, not only the small window with the Opera forums page is opened. There is an additional new window with the demo page opened, so that I have that page opened twice in two separate windows, not tabs.

function openBrowserWindow(theURL,winName,features) 
	{
		window.open(theURL,winName,features);
	}

In my case, the problem persists with new Opera 86.0.4363.23
