Quick popup question - GoFuckYourself.com

Dirty F · 09-04-2006, 06:08 PM

What code would be best to have a popup box working in IE and FF for as many users as possible.
Im not talking about a entry or exit popup but if someone clicks an info link on my site he should get a little box popping up with info.

I know from my own surfing experience this stuff often don't work for me on many sites.

Any suggestions?

I think most peopple have it on, there are too many sites using javascript everywhere..

Here a little example to you....

<script language=javascript>
function Popup() {
window.open('popuppage.html' ,'Name','width=350,height=600,resizable=no,scrollb ars=yes');
}
</script>

<A href="#" onclick="Popup();">click here to popup</A>

I've no accurate stats on this but I imagine very few surfers surf with js disabled. ActiveX of course can be another matter.

Javascript may be enabled, but popup blockers will block JS oriented to automatically spawning windows (like on form load).
