I'm not sure exactly what you have done, but you need to remember that the
output stream runs inside a hidden iframe, if you add script tags into this
they will be running inside the context of that frame.

I haven't got time to test what works at the moment, but the way I would
do it is add a function into fwindowlist that runs the window.open command
and then call that function from the interface (you call _func_out iirc).
You should be able to call window.open from the stream but I remember problems
with that in the past (I can't remember why though)..
