Pop-ups inconsistant behavior on PCs

I recently made a website in Dreamweaver MX 2004 for an
artist and the pop-ups that I created via the behaviors panel are
not working properly some of the time on PC’s. All of my
pages are XHTML and passed HTML validation at validator.w3.org.
Please look at this page as an example:
http://www.karenlfield.com/maui.html
Obviously when you click on any of the six medium-sized
images, the pop-up should open in a new browser over the upper left
corner of the main page window, on mousedown as I specified. The
problem is that on some of the PCs, some of the time, the pop-up
html pages of the large images open up behind the main window and
the viewers never see the pop-up pages and keep on clicking to no
avail. I tested my site on many different machines at different
locations. On one occasion, I tested on six PCs in the same office.
The pop-ups worked perfectly on five of the machines, but the
performance on the sixth machine was inconsistent at best. This is
in Internet Explorer both 6 and 7. I don’t see any pattern.
I’ve double-clicked, single-clicked, you name it. Does anyone
have a solution to this dilemma?? Thanks, D North

In the pop-up window if you use
<body onLoad="self.focus();">
that should bring the focus to the pop-up window when it
loads and should
keep it above the other window(s) till the user clicks on any
other
window.Also in your pop-up links, say for example
<a href="javascript:;"
onmousedown="MM_openBrWindow('NeonPalms.html','NeonPalms','width=620,height=497')"><img
src="images/Maui_cm.jpg" alt="Neon Palms" width="218"
height="160"
border="0" /></a>
right now, if I disable javascript nothing will happen when I
click on an
image.
a better method maybe to use something like this
<a href="NeonPalms.html" target="_blank"
onClick="MM_openBrWindow('NeonPalms.html','NeonPalms','width=620,height=497');
return false;"><img src="images/Maui_cm.jpg" alt="Neon
Palms" width="218"
height="160" border="0" /></a>
This way if javascript is disabled, a new window will open.
It won't have
the specified size, but it'll atleast work.
I like the website and your other work.

Flash Pop-Ups Showing Blank... but only for one user! OS X

Hello,
I am absolutely at my wits end with this one. Here are my specs
My Player Version: MAC 10,1,53,64
Operating System: Mac OS 10.6.3 (Snow Leopard)
Browsers: Safari 5.0, Firefox, Chrome -- same error on all browsers
About a month ago, I noticed some strange behavior with Flash on certain sites -- namely that when I hovered over something that would create a flash pop-up (like the graphs in Google Analytics), the box would pop-up, but it would be empty -- no text, just the blank colored box. Movies played fine, other aspects of Flash played fine, just the pop-ups were broken. This was cross-browser --- didn't matter if I used Safari, Firefox or Chrome -- same broken pop-ups. Since then, I've noticed other things that don't work -- like the Adobe Privacy Settings box! The checkboxes are visible in the settings box, but no text!
As it keeps me from using Google Analytics and other important online apps, this has made me very sad.
What's strange, though, is that it only seems to affect the main user account on my Mac -- when I try to access these sites with my Guest account, everything works perfectly. Baffling.
Here is what I've done to try to troubleshoot it:
Used the Adobe Uninstaller to Uninstall Flash - no errors
Repaired permissions
Installed a fresh copy of Flash Player 10.1 - no errors
I've done this several times, trying restarts and other refreshes in between -- doesn't fix it
I went on a hunt for everything named Macromedia and Flash in my Account and trashed it. Uninstalled Flash CS4. Uninstalled Adobe Air. Used the Adobe Uninstaller again. Repaired permissions again. Restarted again. Reinstalled Flash Player again.
No dice.
I have no idea what to do next. This is driving me crazy. Please, someone, HELP!

Hi NorwichUK,

How to avoid IE pop-ups when running BIP reports(w/ SSO) from Oracle Forms?

Hi all,
We have an OID/SSO integrated Oracle Forms and BI Publisher environment in place. We/users expect the same behavior when running Oracle Reports or BIP reports from Oracle Forms... which means receiving no intermediate pop-ups and simply getting the report output to appear in the relevant target application(PDF, EXCEL, etc). Currently we get multiple security warnings when running BIP reports from Oracle Forms.
Here's a list of Pop-ups contents:
1. "File Download - Security Warning" Do you want to open or save this file? -> OPEN
2. "File Download" Do you want to save this file? Name = ma01r500.pdf -> YES
3. "Save AS" -> pick desktop and save.
4. "Download Complete" -> OPEN
We have experimented with setting various IE security settings to LOW/enabled and still get these pop-ups.
Any suggestions is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Yahya

FYI... Metalink Note 282996.1 has resolved the bigger issue with the extra pop-ups with SSO enabled environment.
Cause:
Internet Explorer (IE) has to cache PDF files in a temporary directory prior to opening the file. Without this IE cannot process PDF files. With SSO protected pages, the header cache settings are set to no-cache which prevents IE from downloading PDF files.
Solution:
In mod_osso.conf use the entry "OssoSendCacheHeaders off" which tells mod_osso to turn off all no-cache related headers, which the enables Internet Explorer to be cache the file in a temporary directory.
Now I am not sure if anybody has any thoughts/suggestions as how we might be able to resolve this issue where Oracle Reports WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT calls have no pop-ups so ideally BIP reports WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT calls should behave the same as both are calls from Oracle Forms.
But at least now our SSO enabled environment and un-secure DEV/UAT behave the same with a single pop-up. Ideally the users shouldn't have to come across this intermediate pop-up to open(save/cancel being the other options) the document(just like Oracle Reports calls).

What antivirus protection should I purchase for my MacBook Pro? MacSecurity.app appeared on my desktop, and I downloaded that. Since then, it has said my computer is infected and pop-ups have been appearing.

You've been infected by a scam trojan. You don't need any anti-virus software on your Mac. See the following about getting rid of the trojan.
Trojan War
If you discover a trojan program is running on your computer then look to the following information for assistance:
1. A recent discussion on the Apple Support Communities: MacDefender Trojan.
2. An excellent site devoted to Mac Malware: Macintosh Virus Guide
3. Another site for removing MacDefende, et.al.: MAC Defender Rogue Anti-Virus analysis and Removal
4. A new removal utility - MacDefenderKiller
Removing strange software can be a task. The following outlines various ways of uninstalling software:
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a Startup item or a Log In item. Startup items are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the Delete [-] button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Note that you must have this software installed before you install software you may need to uninstall. Uninstallers won't work if you install them after the fact. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them and others at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on removing software and dealing with spyware and malware.
After removing all the components of the software you may have to restart the computer to fully disable the software. This will be the case when removing software that has installed a daemon. After the daemon has been removed you need to restart the computer to stop the daemon. Alternatively, you can kill the daemon process using the Terminal application or Activity Monitor.

Alternative browsers that allow pop-ups?

My son just got an iPad for work thinking that he could use it with a web-based utility they use in the retail auto business. He can get onto the site with Safari, but when he goes to use a tab or link, some features are not functional. For instance, he sets up a customer document on the page, then attempts to email the customer from the utility (it works fine on his iMac and on PCs), the email dialogue comes up, but he can't type into the body area so it doesn't work. That was using the iPad's Safari. He tried something called Atomic Browser but again, no dice.
He seems to think that he needs a browser that allows pop-ups and pages from links to either open as a 2nd browser window on the screen, and that window has to be fully functional.
The iPad can be a great business tool, but they have to tailor Safari to work with web based applications as well as installed ones. But in the interim, if anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Try the iCab browser. You can set it to tell web based apps that it is Internet Explorer, for example, which might help.

Issue with pop ups on Mobile Safari 5.1.4

Recently I've updated my Ipad through iOS 5.1 and when I tried to access my company web system, within the confirmation of the message to allow the popup to been loaded I've notice that if I tring to access the regular web address with the pop-up block disabled a web page blinks and the login page doesn't appear.
If I try to access the login's page dorectly the login's page open with no difficulty.
When I try to access in oldests versions of the mobile safary - like 4.3, I don't notice this behavior.
Could you provide any help for me?
Thanks in advance!

That's just the way that Safari works now. If you do not allow the pop ups - the page will blink as you have seen but it will not load.
I cannot remember what earlier versions of Safari used to do, but you have to set Safari to Block pop ups >Off.

Is there a way to remove Index pop-ups? (RH 10)

RoboHelp 10 / Webhelp / IE 10
We've encountered the known issue that's been discussed in multiple threads regarding the pop-ups for Index entries with multiple topics not displaying correctly in IE 10.
I've tried the various 'fixes' that have been suggested, including editing the font values in the skins as well as in the whibody file, but nothing seems to change the behavior.
Is there any way of just turning off the pop-up window and forcing RH to display multiple entries in the Index window itself?

This was the first fix I was talking about - http://helpx.adobe.com/robohelp/kb/help-visible-using-win-8-ie.html
Here’s the second hack I was talking about - http://forums.adobe.com/message/5892194#5892194

Mozilla pop-ups started several weeks ago then came repeated crashes

It just happened while I was entering the information so I have to re-enter it. Short version before it happens again. Pop-ups from Mozilla advertising started about 2 months ago, then the response time got slower, now for the past month or more, it freezes then closes. Then it does a re-store, with the this is embarrassing caption. We love Mozilla, have for years, but to test it, I tried Internet Explorer which I hate and we didn't have these problems. It started I think with Facebook, sending gifts in applications then got worse from there

It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem does not disappear when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there. Please have no fear of following my instructions to the line, as all can be easily undone.

What is the problem with my desktop imac, that ical has frequent pop ups that say I am not connected to the internet, gives me an option of going offline.

What is the problem with my imac, that ical has frequent pop ups that indicate I am not connected to the server. Gives me an option of going offline. This seems to have started when I began using icloud with all of my devices.

I discovered a simple work-around that is successful (at this point in time anyways) on my IMAC/Maverick when sending attachments (not inline or embedded) to PC users.
There are several threads in here on why attachments embed in mac mail when sending to PCs, and I have had similar issues. Not sure where the fault lies, but other than purchasing an additional program to make mac mail work as other mail programs work when it comes to attachments, I found no real solution that worked for my business PC folks. I did all the right things - sent my attachments in mac mail "windows friendly," "plain text," and "attachments at the end" and still got complaints when sending to my pc workmates using Outlook. I tried another suggestion I found here - zipping the files and sending the zipped file, but my workmates did not like that either and still asked why?
By trial and error I discovered that when I attach any pdf to the email as well as the questionable jpgs, the attachments arrive in their PC inbox as attachments that can be used as needed. I don't know why this works, but it has made sending attachments a happier task for my business group.
I would be interested to see if this works for others.

Today Game Center appeared when I was playing scrabble.I cannot disable or get out of the prompt page therefor I cannot play scrabble. How do I permanently remove Game Center pop ups?

How do I remove Game Center pop ups?

The sound is turned off. Only, some Apple apps like YouTube and Siri make sound when the sound is turned off. It is very embarrassing when this happens at work. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
Turning off game center does not work. The games just prompt me to sign in when they are started.I have tried everything I can find online to stop this behavior. It is annoying and should not happen. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
The alarm went off. There was a green thing that looked like a button but pressing it did nothing. There was a red button that said snooze. I did not want to snooze. I wanted to turn the alarm off. I slid the bar to unlock the phone and there were no running apps with a button to press. The alarm just keep running. I have not had this problem since it first occurred. The alarm now shuts off when I just unlock the phone. It may have happened because I had another alarm app running. The two may have interfered with each other. I would like to tell Apple about it.
It also annoys me that the button that closes apps leaves the phone app running. If I press on a number at 6:00 AM to get information about who called me, the phone automatically dials the person back and my natural reaction is to press on the button to close the phone app but the phone keeps dialing this person at 6:00 AM. It is a bad design. I would like to tell Apple about it.
Finally, I looked all over Apple's site to try to find someplace I could send them a polite message to let them know that I was not happy with these "features" but could not find anything. It is extremely frustrating to have issues with a product and not being able to tell the manufacturer about it. So, you grow up!.
When trying to fix the Game Center issue, I saw a link someone posted to report issues with the IPad to Apple. The answer I am looking for is where is the link to report issues with the IPhone.

Whenever I click on something whether on line or in a document, a pop-up appears asking what I want to do, e.g., copy, cut, etc. How do I stop these pop-ups?

henever I click on something whether on line or in a document, a pop-up appears asking what I want to do, e.g., copy, cut, etc. How do I stop these pop-ups?

That's normal right-click behavior, if it's happening when you left-click, the first thing to check would be whether the setting got reversed in System Preferences > Mouse.

Can I make the fonts bigger in the status bar and the notification pop ups?

I'm really struggling to read some of the pop ups. And the status bar is almost impossible. Why is the font smaller on an iPad then an iPhone? I can't read the tabs either. The zoom feature helps but come on already. I've made the fonts bolder but they are just too small. I'm 54 and have worn glasses since I was 6 and there are several areas on this device that are nearly impossible to read. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I've done computer support for many years. Recently moved to a retirement community where the residents have computers of all varieties, and much less trouble with macs than with PCs BUT Safari is terrible for older people with its tiny print, black on dark gray. Latest versions of Chrome seem to crash a lot, so I'd like to encourage them to use Safari, but the tiny print on tabs is a stumbling block. Is there any extension or plug-in that will help with THAT? I know how to increase font size on web sites, that's not the problem. It is the specific Safari tabs that are the problem.

You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select

Eu estou tendo problemas com pop-ups, já baixei todos os complementos possiveis mas não adianta, eles continuam aparecendo; como faço para não aparecer mais?

Havia um programa que já veio instalado no computador mas que depois de um tempo meu antivirus acusou que ter vírus. Deletei-o e então começou a aparecer os pop-ups. Baixei vários complementos como AdBlock, Avast online Security etc mas nada deu certo, eles continuavam a aparecer nas redes sociais, como em outros sites. Tive que recorrer ao Modo de Segurança do Firefox e desde então não aparece mais pop-ups. Queria saber se tem algum jeito de conseguir a mesma coisa sem ter o Modo de Segurança ativado.

Tente limpar todo o cache do firefox qualquer dúvida tente esse [[Como limpar o cache do Firefox|Tutorial]] . Se não resolver tente tirar um print e postar aqui o conteúdo do pop-up, dessa forma podemos ver o problema.
