You can't use server side functions to open up a new window, that would have to take place on the client.

 

 

So you could use HTTP::respond () to open a different resource in a new window instead ("popup"), sending this code as the response:

 

  
    
    
  You do not appear to have JavaScript enabled. Please proceed to the .

 

 

(It would be susceptible to popup blockers, of course.)
