JavaScript open in a new window, not tab

Code

<asp:Button ID="btnPopupWindow" runat="server" 
        Text="Popup Window" 
        OnClientClick="PopupWindow();" />

JavaScript

function PopupWindow() {
    testwindow = window.open("http://google.com", "Google", "menubar=0,addressbar=0, width=500, height=500");
    testwindow.focus();
}

Using above code i can open new popup window in IE, but this code is not working in the firefox.
What is the problem with my code?

could a pop-up blocker be the problem? – Ali Aug 18 '11 at 09:20
Check firebug, the above code is working fine for me in firefox – Anupam Aug 18 '11 at 09:22
Firefox blocked the popup for me first time but when I disabled the popup blocker it works fine. Seems to be your most likely problem? – steven mcdowell Aug 18 '11 at 09:23

on an unrelated side note your windowFeatures should be `"menubar=yes,location=yes, width=500, height=500"` – naveen Aug 18 '11 at 09:23
@steven actually firefox is opening new tab for me not popup :( – Neo Aug 18 '11 at 09:54
And for all browsers to be happy, remove all spaces in the parameters. – mplungjan Aug 18 '11 at 10:02
