"pop-up Blockers"
Mar 22, 2003
I have a page on my site where I have various "click for details"-type links. The link pops up a small box with some extra information that the visitor wanted to see.
Some visitors have been emailing me saying things like, "When I click on those links nothing happens" or "it just reloads the page..." etc. I'm guessing these users may have some sort of pop-up blocker or something??
What's the deal with those blockers I've been hearing AOL and Earthlink are promoting? Do they just stop pop-ups from launching even if the visitor clicks a link? What am I missing? What else can it be? Why would some of my visitors not be able to launch a small pop-up window from clicking on a link?

Below is a snippet of code that i use in a script to call another file which open a new window, the problem is that popup blockers are blocking this. What i need to know is there a way to recode this so popup blockers can not block the new window opening?
".iif($showpopup==true,"
<script>
var force=0
function setwinfocus() {
window.focus()
}
window.open('mcfpopup.php','MakoCashFlow','width=790,height=500,left=10,top=10,toolbar=yes,menubar=n o,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,resizable=yes,location=yes');
setTimeout("setwinfocus()",1500);
</script>
")."
";
?>

Been using popup windows for years on my websites, launched by onClick, and they are not blocked, I would assume because they are called from the current page in the same domain. I'm using basically the same script in a new application, but it's launched by onLoad, again from a page in the same domain. It's being blocked by most browsers.

Does Jquery perform better or worse than other Java library with regard to not triggering pop up blockers?

I have a chat application where when a button is click a pop up window for chat will appear. I want to bypass any pop up blocker so that my chat app will always show when my button is clicked. Is this possible?

I have merged two scripts to make a popup that comes up even if blocked, and is for first time visitor only (cookie). The problem is that the way I'm doing it, it might show one or more times to the visitor. I don't want that because it will be irritating and this is a high-priority client. I'm posting the whole script because I think the problem is calling the popup before checking the cookie, but not sure how to rearrange things.
Also, I did search and found some good dhtml stuff but don't want to rewrite. This was supposed to be done last night so if I can fine tune this for now, I'll have time to rewrite something better (or at least play around with another script). Also, the popup refuses to come up in IE - I have IE6, but I detest IE and their site doesn't even load in it so whatever. I tested in FFox3, Opera 10 and Safari and it seems to work but like I say because of the onclick - it will load at any click until the user goes to a different page. I added a refresh in there but it just made things worse - too much going on for the user at that point.

I created a little script on a section of a website that password protects the page. It gives a user 3 tries to enter the correct password and then if they get it wrong, it moves them to another page that says they don't have access.
Recently, I upgraded it to do a window.showModalDialog instead of just using a plain javascript prompt as they don't look as nice and clear as a customized JSP could.
However, now that we've sent that upgrade out, we're finding that some of our users are not seeing the window.showModalDialog and it just loads the page (not the no access page).
The script is below. When I look through it, it looks to me that a user with an active popup blocker should just be sent straight to the no_access.jsp file, but that isn't what's happening. Code:

I dont know much about the functionality on what causes some popups to trigger a browsers blocker and some not to.
Situation: I have an account information page (where users can edit their account details) one of the fields the user can edit comes at a cost. For billing I am using a 3rd party billing portal (standard form action pointing to the service & value is passed via post variable)
-user hits submit (not on the 3rd party billing form, my fake ajax button)a service is selected that cost $1 (lets say)verification DB is updated (no page reload)value field is updated in the 3rd party billing form to reflect the additional service I then initiate the form submit on the 3rd party billing form into a popup window I do not want to user to leave the site, I want the $1 billing window to pop up, they take care of it then close the window returning back to the site. In order to get the form to popup in a window I set the forms target to the popup window:
Code:
window.open("", paysys, "width=760,height=550"); functionality everything is working perfect, except most browsers catch the popped up window in their popup blockers. Anyone know how I can create a popup that isnt flagged by the browsers?
