Results page in other window

Question

I have this simple form:

<form method="post" action".">
<input type="text" name="title">
<input type="submit" name"send">
</form>

I want that when a user click on submit, then will be open another window of browser with the results. Is it possible?

@Artefacto: Not really, that question is using Javascript to do the post. Although the question is tagged Javacript, I think it's just a normal form submission (@xRobot: Right?). — T.J. Crowder, May 17 '10 at 10:53
You don't need Javascript for this at all (see andr's answer). Did you have a reason you actively *wanted* to use Javascript for this, rather than a built-in mechanism? Or did you just not know there *was* a built-in mechanism? — T.J. Crowder, May 17 '10 at 10:54
Fair enough. The accepted answer provides a non-javascript mechanism (the one andr gave) though. — Artefacto, May 17 '10 at 11:14

If you just need to open a new window:

<form method="post" action="..." target="_blank">
...

If you want a popup or lightbox or anything scripty:

<form method="post" action="..." onsubmit="yourFunction()">

Use this

<form method="post" action"thepagetodisplay.php">
<input type="text" name="title" id="title">
<input type="submit" name"send">
</form>

on thepagetodisplay.php

extract($_POST);
echo $title;
