title: open an mvc 4 view from javascript in a new window
body: <p>I'm trying to open a new window (window.open) using javascript in mvc 4.  Here's my current code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>                var url = '@Url.Action("Index", "ReportExecution", new {target="_blank"})';
              window.location.href = url;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This doesn't open a new window.  It makes the url "ReportExecution/Index?target=_blank".  I tried using:</p>
  
  <pre><code>window.open
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>instead of </p>
  
  <pre><code>window.location.href
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but that didn't work.  How can this be accomplished?</p>
