title: Angular 8 app: window.open in new window always redirects to index.html
body: <p>I have set up my app with a  tag that has a directive attached to it that will call window.open want my app to open in a new window at a path in my routes</p>
  
  <pre><code>window.open(
        '/my-path',
        '_blank',
        'height=550,width=1400'
      );
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This all works perfectly fine in localhost, but for some reason, when I push into dev, the new window always wants to redirect to index.html and just bounces me to the root, rather than going to /my-path.</p>
  
  <p>Any idea on what I might be missing?</p>
