Notes

This function moves the window absolutely while window.moveBy moves the window relative to its current location.

Since Firefox 7, it's no longer possible for a web site to move a window in a browser, according to the following rules:

1. You can't move a window or tab that wasn’t created by window.open.
2. You can't move a window or tab when it’s in a window with more than one tab.
