Window.Open not triggering

I was not able to determine why, but window.open is not working for me. It never opens a new window/tab and then when window.close fires, the process ends.

I resolved this locally by adding the following instead of window.open

// @grant GM_openInTab

GM_openInTab (window.location.href);

This seems to also protect against the mentioned memory leak.

Regarding the window.open not triggering on your end, it's possible your browser is just blocking that action. I found your issue post when I experienced this myself.

I removed the window.close() call and Chrome prompted me to allow/block window.open from executing on the Best Buy website. After I clicked allow, I had no more issues. Just wanted to leave this here in case anyone else runs into this, as the call to window.close() suppresses the browser notification.
