I am building a web app where I need to open blank tab for redirect its working on desktop but not in android.

/** 

    * New Window
    */
   const newWindow: any = window?.open(, '_blank');

   if (!newWindow) return;
   /**
    * Loading Text
    */
   const textNode: any = newWindow.document.createElement('h1');
   textNode.appendChild(document.createTextNode('Loading ...'));
   newWindow.document.body.appendChild(textNode);

When the open parameter is empty it should open blank tab but instead its opening the current location. When put 'about:blank" in open parameter, it open blank page but the createNode function & other codes are not running.

This sounds more like a web development question than an issue with Firefox for Android.

I recommend that you ask about this at:
