How to show back and forward button on popup opened thru window.open or self.open for Chrome?

Question

i am opening the popup window with below code snippet

   self.open('myJSPPage','ServicePopUp','height=600,width=800,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=yes,menubar=yes,location=yes');

Once the window opens i do not see any back button or forward button on popup. I just see title then address bar under it and then myJSPPage under address bar. I am not getting how to show back and forward button on popup?

Edit:- i am using google crome. Looks like above code working on IE

another asked question in stack over flow Unfortunately Chrome only supports a small set of window features when using window.open. If you believe that this is a bug or an issue you can file it at http://crbug.com.

If you just use window.open(url) then it will open a new tab in the same window with the buttons you desire.
