Avoid invalid title names when opening javascript windows

If you are opening a new window in javascript using the window.open command, be careful of the title given to the new window. If you include a dash (-) in the title, the window will not open correctly in IE6 or IE7. It'll work fine in Firefox (unsure about Safari) but Internet Explorer will completely fail to open the new window.
