Safari: click on a link in popup.html doesn't open new tab/window

[vedmedka]

I've added to kango_samples/PopupDemo/popup.html a link:

<a href="https://my.site.com/" class="btn" id="save_form_btn" target="_blank">Login to SITE</a>

I expected my click on a link will open a new tab/window. It works in chrome and firefox but doesn't work in safari.

javascript workaround:

                $('<div>Login</div>')
                .attr('class', 'btn btn-primary')
                .attr('id', 'save_form_btn')
                .attr('target', '_blank')
                .click(function() {
                    var url = 'https://my.site.com/';
                    kango.browser.tabs.create({url: url, focused: true});
                })
                .appendTo('#not_logged_box');
