[Rails] Rails3: open link in new window

I'm having trouble writing the required javascript to open a link in a
new browser window in Rails3.

Previously, in rails2.3.x I could just do:

link_to "foo", foo_path(foo), :popup => true

But now in Rails3, this option has been deprecated and the only other
way I can imagine doing this would be to use link_to_function but that
has also been nuked so I can't figure this out.

Can anyone give me some pointers please?

Thanks

PS: I'm specifically looking to open a new browser-window, as opposed
to a modal-box or a jquery dialogue as I need it to stay alive whilst
the user continues to browse the site...
