focus on the new window.open window

Up until a few weeks ago, javascript code like

window.open("http://mydomain.com", "windowName");

would always bring my new or reused window to the top, with focus.
Lately, Firefox (Deer park alpha 2) only brings it to the top if the
window is new. If it's being reused, the window does not come to
the foreground (with IE 6 it does).

Is there a new way in Mozilla/Firefox that I can ensure that this
window
comes to the top?

Thanks,
Csaba Gabor from Vienna
