When you open a new window, the URL can refer to a JSP, an HTML page, an image or any other web resource. It doesn't matter.
My first thought would be to use a window.open(). I am not sure if there are any limitations in doing this with jsp or if there is a better approach than the window.open().
Once your page gets to the browser, it's just an HTML page. The fact that page was composed using JSP on the server is moot.
One large drawback to using a window.open() is the IE information bar that appears when a supposed pop-up is encountered.
An alternative to window.open is to use the
target tag on a link or form. But that doesn't give you as much control.
