OK, so here's what I'm trying to do:
1. A link sends you to my script.
2. My script immediately sends that page back to where it came from.
3. My script creates a new window, and continues to do stuff on it.

Have yourscript.cgi return something like this when the "popup" parameter is false:

        <html>
        <title>popup opener</title>
        <head>
        ...
        <script type="text/javascript">
        function stuff() {
                window.open("http://example.com?popup=1";);
                window.history.back();
        }
        </script>
        </head>
        <body onload="stuff()"></body>
        </html>

I haven't tested this, but it's what comes to mind.
