If  I type;

var popup = document.open('scripts/display.php', '_blank', null);
into the console of my gwt the new window pops up.

Then typeing;

popup.getElementById('idShowText')

Results in;

TypeError: popup.getElementById is not a function

(I also tried with .innerHTML("teststrng") at the end, but that gave
the same result)

Its worth noteing that ;
 document.write(popup.title);
or
 document.write(popup.url);

both return undefined. (despite that a title is set).

It seems popup just isnt refering to the newly created window.
