Description Atit Vakharia 2008-09-08 13:52:32 PDT
I just recently developed this functionality for my business and it's a major deal. I cannot get rid of it completely and I am unable to find the alternative for the browsers using WebKit engine. What I'm trying to do is, open a background window (eg: www.example.com) when a user clicks on a link. The focus needs to be transferred back to the parent window i.e. the original page.

I tried resolving the issue through different JavaScript possible codes but unsuccessful for Safari and Chrome browser.

I definitely need to find a way to fix this pop-under functionality for my site, as it's the main source of the revenue for my company. It's a legal site and not a malware or spyware pop-under ad.

Please reply back soon.

How does that works for you? Do you have any sample javascript code snippet that I could use and make it work.

The way the prepurchase.asp page is suppose to work is, when you click on the image, it opens up an HTML DIV informational popup and a new window. This new window is supposed to be a pop-under i.e. opening behind the main prepurchase.asp page. I hope this clarifies a little more.
