Popup Blocker Detection using Javascript

Bradml

Did you remember to call the function onload?

Try the following script it might work. function detectPopupBlocker() { var myTest = window.open("about:blank","","directories=no,height=100,width=100,menubar=no,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,status=no,titlebar=no,top=0,location=no"); if (!myTest) { alert("Please allow popups for this web site"); } else { myTest.close(); return; } }

What a curious mind needs to discover knowledge is noting else than a pin-hole.

You'll also want to remove the marked line, as the window does't exist when that code executes you can't call the close method... if(!test) { test.close(); alert("A popup blocker was detected."); } else { test.close(); alert("No PopUp Detected"); }

You do realize that the function is called "detectPopupBlocker"?

babutkchn

since i used in the following method, i called up the "testPopUP()" function testPopUp() { detectPopupBlocker(); }

Standard question #1: What do you mean by "not working"? Standard question #2: What error message do you get? Have you enabled Javascript error messages in the browser?

The code you posted is working fine for me (IE7). Make sure the site you are using is not:

In your exception list
On your local file-system
On your network and opened with an UNC-path
on your local IIS (ie localhost)
