window.open('branchMonitoring/', 'Testing Dual Monitor', 'resizable=1, scrollbars=1, fullscreen=0, height=200, width=650, screenX=0 , left=1280, toolbar=0, menubar=0, status=1');

I used this code to open a new window on second monitor but the new window still opens on first monitor and cannot exceed the first monitor's boundary. I tried to change left to a higher value but still no luck.

Please help me brothers. i am using latest google chrome browser and using windows 8 dual monitor.

Please do note that this solution works for me when using FireFox browser. But I need to get it work on chrome.

And also if you are targeting to create an admin/internal application, you can try Chrome App. It offers functions like, window.create() with position parameters. You can control the position of the windows you created. Remember that you have to install the Chrome App you created in user's browser, just like in extensions.
