How to open new window using JavaScript?

Question

I have a requirement to open a new window(URL is dynamic) when I click on a button.

function openWindow(){
     window.open('//www.google.com/','_blank');
}

Here my problem is , JavaScript is opening new window but Appliation name is also appending to URL. i.e it is opening new window with the below URL

http://localhost:8090/www.google.com/

I have tried all the combinations in URL but it is not working

Please do needful

Try adding the protocol for the URL. That JavaScript works fine in both Firefox and Chrome for me though. — Alexander O'Mara

the code you showed should open http://www.google.com - which will probably redirect to https - but it works fine in firefox anyway — Jaromanda X

@jaromanda this code is opening new window , but as below localhost:8090/www.google.com .. I want to remove localhost:8090 — Raj

your code does NOT do that at least in firefox, chrome, ie or edge - but the solution below should work — Jaromanda X

here's proof that the general concept of what you are doing works ... perhaps icefaces / jsf is screwing up your code somehow - what does the code look like when you view it in the browser (view page source) — Jaromanda X

update your javascript function like

function openWindow(){
     window.open('http://www.google.com/','_blank');
}

Use action listener to open new window in icefaces

<ice:commandLink value="click me" actionListener="#{bean.myActionListener}"/> 
------------------------------

public void myActionListener(ActionEvent event) { 
    JavascriptContext.addJavascriptCall(FacesContext.getCurrentInstance(), "window.open('report.iface', 'myWindow');"); 
} 
------------------------------

Use window.open("http://www.google.com");, tested works in all browsers.
