newWindow not working in Netscape

Hi,

I am very new to JavaScript, I am taking the introductory course with the
html guild.  I am trying to get the code below to work in both IE and
Netscape.  But for some reason it doesn't work in Netscape.  Should it?
Have I got something wrong?

Any help would be appreciated.

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
<!--
newWindow = window.open('readme.htm', 'newWin', 'height=425, width=550,
toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no, resizable=no, location=no,
directories=no, status=no left=100, top=100')
-->
</script>
