Ok. I'm trying to login to twitter. The window is not opening in this code. The response that gets alerted is not null and is a link to a login screen. Any ideas?

var url = "./twitter_login.php";
var con = createPHPRequest();

con.open("POST",url,true);
con.setRequestHeader("Content-type","application/x-www-form-urlencoded");
con.send("");

var response = "";

con.onreadystatechange = function() {

    if(con.readyState==4 && con.status==200) {

        response = con.responseText;    
        alert(response);
        window.open(response,"twitter","menubar=1,resizable=1,width=350,height=500");        

    }

}

Just had this exact same issue. Just in case you wanted the code that fixed it. I used this:

newWindow = window.open("", "_blank");

request = $.ajax({ ... my request which returns a url to load ... })

request.done((function(_this) {
        return function(data, textStatus, jqXHR) {
          return newWindow.location = data.Url;
        };
      })(this));
