change Images src with event onClick window.open

Question

as soon as you click on the picture, the picture will be swapped and a new window will open automatically on https://stackoverflow.com/. Any ideas/support what i have missed that this combination would work? Currently the picture is swapping, unfortunately the new window doesn't open.

document.getElementById("img").onclick = function() {
    if(this.src == "https://www.w3schools.com/html/img_girl.jpg"){
        this.src = "https://www.w3schools.com/html/pic_trulli.jpg";
    } else {
        this.src = "https://www.w3schools.com/html/img_girl.jpg";
    }
};

							
<a href="##"onClick="window.open('https://stackoverflow.com/', '_blank','width=900,height=880, toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,statu s=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,copyhistory=no,resizable=no'), BoldText(this);"><img id="img" src="https://www.w3schools.com/html/img_girl.jpg" height="22" width="22" alt="Twitter"></a>

Get rid of BoldText and it does work. I would suggest putting it into a JavaScript expression instead of inline. — zfrisch

I have no problem with the img swapping and opening up in new window. Your _blank should cover the new window.

From jsfiddle I have it working: https://jsfiddle.net/xg1w7b6o/

What browser are you using? Maybe its browser specific that the window is not opening.

The new window isn't opening because it's being blocked be either the browser or an ad-block extension! Try disabling your ad-block extension if you have any and allowing pop-ups in your browser settings for your page!
