    Hi,
    Nowdays browsers have popup blockers. But still I have seen some sites succeed to show popups. I also have to create a popup which can not be blocked by browser. Is it possible? if Yes then please tell me.
    Thanks

    You could also load a "lightbox" and pull content into it...

    Cheers!~

    this is how it goes, the only conditions is that the user clicks one time anywhere.
    Remove window.focus(); to turn this popunder into a popup.

    Meerkat

    If I wasn't already going to hell for all the other stuff I've done, I'd worry about sharing this with someone asking for "unblockable popup" ability. But Meerkat is an awesome utility for creating highly-customisable page features with "pop up like" qualities, that do not trigger blockers. I'm pretty sure that the annoying fly ins that DigitalPoint uses are using Meerkat, or something like it.

    most modern popup blockers search the code for a call to window.open if it is found it will be blocked no way around that. Most popup blockers are set to ask the user to open any type of new window. You could use this to your advantage. you could have a "helpful" link that opens in a popup that will cause the popup blocker to ask the user if they would like to allow popups from blablabl.com. if the user clicks yes then they may also allow all of your other popups without really knowing it.

    by using
    Window Layers (Or “Pop-Overs”)
    The first is to create DHTML (dynamic HTML) windows, which uses layers (also called “pop-ins” or “pop-overs,” and sometimes called “hover ads” or “drop-in windows”).

    These windows are not windows per se but in fact are actual HTML mini-pages created “on top” of regular HTML. When they close (such as by clicking the “X” in the upper righthand corner), they don’t really close. They simply become invisible.

    These scripts are free.
