<p>Scenario:</p>

<ol>
<li>The user has two monitors.</li>
<li>Their browser is open on the secondary monitor.</li>
<li>They click a link in the browser which calls window.open() with a specific top and left window offset.</li>
<li>The popup window always opens on their primary monitor.</li>
</ol>

<p>Is there any way in JavaScript to get the popup window to open on the same monitor as the initial browser window (the opener)?</p>

as long as you know the x and y position that falls on the particular monitor you can do:
```
```
var x = 0;
var y = 0;
var myWin = window.open(''+self.location,'mywin','left='+x+',top='+y+',width=500,height=500,toolbar=1,resizable=0');
```
```
