Re: Now Playing window in IE7

Vax offered the following link as an explanation to what is being seen.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...51(VS.85).aspx

The key information is as follows.

The behavior described in this comment is by-design. In Internet Explorer 7 and later, you cannot remove the address bar in Internet Zone windows, for security (anti-spoofing) reasons. As described in the MSDN article above, in IE7 and later, location=no simply hides the back/forward/stop navigation buttons, and makes the address bar read-only. (The reason you can hide the address bar when the file is saved locally is that the file is opened in the Local Machine zone rather than the Internet Zone.)
-EricLaw, Program Manager, Internet Explorer Security.

The address bar is not supposed to come in a pop up, if we are setting "location=no" in the input "Features" of window.open(). It is coming at certain situations as follows. Please let me know why it is coming like that.
Steps to reproduce this issue

I appreciate why this design decision was made: security trumps appearance.
