Don't use the javascript:void(0) stuff at all, trying this instead:

So remove this line:
               $this.attr("href", "javascript:void(0);");

And change this:
               $this.bind("click", function(){
                       var name = "PopUpWindow" + index;
                       window.open(href, name, parameters).focus();
                       return false;
               });

That should do the trick.
