This code is used to download a pdf via blob. It works fine on every browser except Safari 12 for macOS and iOS. Even Safari 11 works. When I run the code the very first time, it works fine, but every time after that it gives me "WebKitBlobResource error 1"
function downloadFileFromBlob(fileBlob, fileName) {
if (/bMSIEb|bTridentb/.test($window.navigator.userAgent)) {
$window.navigator.msSaveOrOpenBlob(fileBlob, fileName);
} else {
var fileURL = $window.URL.createObjectURL(fileBlob);
createDownloadElementAndClick(fileURL, fileName);
}
}
function createDownloadElementAndClick(fileURL, fileName) {
var anchorElement = $window.document.createElement('a');
anchorElement.href = fileURL;
anchorElement.target = '_blank';
anchorElement.download = fileName;
var event = $window.document.createEvent("MouseEvents");
event.initEvent("click", true, false);
anchorElement.dispatchEvent(event);

It seems that it is the target = "_blank" that is not working. I have replaced it with _self, which apparently solved the problem. I found this when I had the same issue.
If someone has a idea on why we cannot use _blank I would love to hear that.

Given that only blobURIs are concerned by this_blankrestriction, (dataURI seem to works fine), I'd say it's part of a bigger restriction where evenwindow.open(blobURI)gets blocked.
