You need to specify it as below,

win.onload=function()
{
    window.open.location=rel;
}

Take a look at this post: Detecting the onload event of a window opened with window.open

If you are opening a window to a different domain, you will not be able to tie into this event.

That post has several things you can try.

win.addEventListener('load', function () {
    alert('popup loaded');
}, false);

This is a more ideal cross-browser solution (again, it's from that link):

win[win.addEventListener ? 'addEventListener' : 'attachEvent'](
  (win.attachEvent ? 'on' : '') + 'load', function () {
    alert('popup loaded');
}, false
);

EDIT: Just tried the second code snippet in IE10, FF18, and Chrome 25. The onload event worked great, as long as it was pointing to a URL that was on the same domain as the site calling it. Even I pointed the URL to www.google.com, my event never fired. This is a security feature of the browsers, and I don't think you'll be able to do much about it...
