<a href="....." target="_blank" onClick="window.close()">

Isnt the onclick event triggered before the link? If i turn off Javascript after
the popup appeared, it works fine.

Not JavaScript Engine. Over to DOM HTML

Yeah, closing the window means no more click processing (since the link handler
on the prescontext goes away).
