I would like to just take a step back and ponder what the user

the OP says, and a new browser window opens? I don't think that is how
most people experience the web these days. Technicalities of how one
does this notwithstanding, I am urging the OP to consider their users.

The OP's use of the word 'many' is subjective. Too you it might mean 5, to him it could very well mean 3. To me, either one is possible on many of my forms, since I try to provide the user with flexibility and function on each of my screens. Sometimes there are several things that a form could lead to, depending upon what the user needs to see or do.

In this case, I can see the purpose for a separate window being opened. Sometimes (as a user myself) I have wished to have a screen of data appear to support my primary screen's use. It opens, I get some new input and I close it, going back to where I was.

We obviously don't know the OP's task, but I can see usefulness and appreciate it.

Just my $.02
