Re: Popup code not working as popup but regular link

Your code looks correct and seemed to work in Chrome, FF, and IE when I tested it.

Only thing I'd add is that it is redundant:
The href address is being cancelled by the return false. The window open address is being opened in the new window as expected. If you didn't have the return false both the new window and the original window would go to the same location.

The method I generally use is to have the href direct to the new window by using a target pointed to the name of the new window. In this case popup. If you do this you don't need a return false.
