Popup Page

Once your page loads, after the number of seconds you define, a popup window will open.



<head>

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">

</script>

</head>

<body onload="setTimeout('popupPage()', 5000);">

</body>

if you change 'setTimeout' to 'setInterval' a new pop-up will open every 5 seconds, lol

also you can determine if your popup window has been blocked or not
like this:

var win1 = window.open(sumtin, sumtin1, sumtin2);
if(win1.closed)
{
alert("Ouch, you need to disable your popup blocker!");
}

lol

This is sometime usefull to know, is user blocking popups or not, when creating sophisticated web systems were sometimes you need to open popup on <Body onLoad...> method, so you can tell user that he would allow popups for my site. But i dont use popups very often, i only use them for previewing how form's data will look like on page. But i think sometimes it's valuable
