If we have a popup window open and it is not in focus how can we check it? If the popup is not in focus and the user is looking at something else I want to play a "beep" sound using <embed>. However if they are focused on the popup I do not wan to play this "beep" sound.
To explain in further detail I have a Instant Messenger running and if the user does not have the IM focused and they get a new message there is no way in letting them know. So I thought a "beep" sound would be nice. I found a way to simply focus() the window, however don't think many will like that.
I would like to disable a feature on my site if someone is in a textarea or input text field. Yet I can't seem to figure out how to check for this... Could someone give me an example of how I can determine if a user does not have a text input or textarea selected? Can't seem to get anything I found via google working.
I am trying to dynamically open a popup window but ie8 blocks it with the popup blocker. basically within a ajax fuction I have a confirm button and if the user clicks yes it opens a popup window. now I tried it with a javascript function but it got blocked, so I have tried it by creating a form with a button in it and instead of calling the popup function direct I call document.form.button.click and in the form my button has onclick"popup('<? echo url; ?>')" but this also is detected as a unwarranted popup and is blocked.
now I understand that the popup blocker works when a popup is called without user interaction, but allows popups on say button clicks. how can I get the popup to work
In my application i use window.showmodaldialog() to pop up a window. When i run it in IE pop up blocker wont blocks the window... But when run it in FireFox pop up blocker will blocks the pop up window.. is there any way to open a window with out blocking(avoiding ) by the pop up blocker?
I click on a link...(say facebook) from the current window. It opens up in a new browser tab. Until here i got it working. Now when i get back to my previous window and click on the same link, then the tab already displaying the facebook site should either get focused or at least blink, so as to alert the user.
I have a website I am working on that the customer wants nice text displayed in both the user/pass boxes prior to entering data. So I figured it would be nice to just use background images (as passwords cant have text) and it looked very nice. The issue is when the user selects a username from a dropdown list of previously entered usernames and selects via the mouse it doesn't fire any events that I can see. The largest issue is they want the username focused, otherwise this would be easy with just onFocus/blur.
I feel after the hours I have put into it that I am missing something very simple. I just want the bg to change when data is in the field but not delayed. FF is giving me the most fits.
I have a popup window which has the search form in. What I want to do is for the popup window to close once the form is submitted, and to post the form data to a page on the main window.

I have a popup window that comes up when a user doesn't have access to a certain page within my site. The problem is when a user clicks on something the popup window comes up but the bigger sized window of that popup comes up in the background as well. I am trying to have my popup window come up while the original page I clicked from is still focused/seen in the background. This is the code I currently am using, can anyone help me with what I am missing. I have a back button but I won't need that if I want to maintain the original page in the background. Instead I will use a close button.

how to pass a value from radio button in a window to a popup window using asp javascript?n in the popup window,there is a textfield to enter data to search from database.. the value from the textfield then is used to generate report.
I have a website which has a popup window (this only opens when the user chooses to open it). In the popup window I have a <select> control which lists a selection of "classes". Each class has a description and a class_id (stored in the value attribute of each option). The user will then select a class from the drop-down list.
What I want to do is have a control in the parent browser window which can store the class_id and the description that the user has selected in the popup window.
Any suggestions as to what control I should use in the parent window and more importantly how I get the value from the popup window (this must be client side code as the user will have entered other values into the form in the parent browser window)?
In parent window, while submitting form, popup window is called. In child popup window, parent window is forced to go invisible through code. But sometimes it is not working.Aim is to inactive all elements in parent form or invisible parent form while child window (popup) is opened. After closing popup, parent form should be in visible state.
In parent Window: (userinfo.php) <script type="text/javascript"> <!--
I guess this case applies to both popup windows opened by window.open() and by showModalWindow().
I have two buttons in popup window, "Cancel" and "Save". If the user clicks either button, there is a "process" at parent window before close() at popup being called. The problem now is, if the user click the "X" sign at top right corner of that popup window, how to trigger the "process"?
I think I can do nothing in popup window since the closure is unexpected programmatically. Can I put some kind of listener in parent window to detect if popup is closed?
